ANNUAL REPORT
TO
SHAREHOLDERS
HAWTHORN BANCSHARES, INC.
Jefferson City, Missouri

​
March 30, 2016
Dear Shareholders:
I am pleased to report that net income for 2015 increased 12% over 2014 and reached its highest level since 2006. For 2015, Hawthorn reported a net profit of  $8.6 million compared to $7.7 million for 2014. On a per share basis, 2015 diluted earnings per share were $1.58 compared to $1.41 for 2014.
Earnings improvement was primarily attributed to recoveries of nonaccrual interest and a $9.5 million average increase in our highest earning asset category – loans. This growth was achieved organically, in our existing markets.
Net interest income for 2015 was $40.8 million compared to $39.5 million for 2014. On a tax equivalent basis, Hawthorn’s net interest margin remained strong for 2015 at 3.69% compared to 3.72% for 2014 despite continuation of an historic low rate environment and competition for quality loans.
Non-interest income for 2015 was $9.2 million compared to $8.7 million for 2014. The increase is primarily the result of higher combined real estate servicing fees and mortgage loan sales income resulting from increased financing activity in the housing market. Non-interest expenses remained unchanged from 2014 at $36.5 million. Real estate foreclosure expenses decreased $1.1 million during 2015 primarily due to net gains on sales of foreclosed properties. Partially offsetting the decrease was a modest increase of  $0.4 million in salaries and benefits and smaller increases in various other non-interest expense categories.
Non-performing loans improved significantly during 2015 to 1.19% of total loans at December 31, 2015, compared to 4.18% at December 31, 2014. During the year ended December 31, 2015, net charge-offs were $0.7 million compared to $4.6 million for 2014. As we evaluate our loan portfolio, we are seeing many positive trends including fewer problem credits. The allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2015 was $8.6 million, or 0.99% of outstanding loans, and 83.75% of non-performing loans compared to December 31, 2014, when the allowance for loan losses was $9.1 million, or 1.06% of outstanding loans, and 25.26% of non-performing loans.
Our Capital levels at December 31, 2015 continue to exceed regulatory well capitalized thresholds with 9.84% of leverage capital and 14.78% of total risk-based capital.
Profitability, asset quality and growth trends are all on positive trends; however, as I have stated in previous communications with you, we must continue to improve upon our 0.72% return on average assets and 10.14% return on average common equity for 2015. As an investor, director and executive officer, I am committed to maintaining strong asset quality; further improving earnings performance, sustaining sound and proper capital levels and paying regular dividends.
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,
David T. Turner,
Chairman & Chief Executive Officer

HAWTHORN BANCSHARES, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
Crucial to the Company’s community banking strategy is growth in its commercial banking services, retail mortgage lending and retail banking services. Through the branch network of its subsidiary bank, Hawthorn Bank (the Bank), the Company, with $1.2 billion in assets at December 31, 2015, provides a broad range of commercial and personal banking services. The Bank’s specialties include commercial banking for small and mid-sized businesses, including equipment, operating, commercial real estate, Small Business (SBA) loans, and personal banking services including real estate mortgage lending, installment and consumer loans, certificates of deposit, individual retirement and other time deposit accounts, checking accounts, savings accounts, and money market accounts. Other financial services that the Company provides include trust services that include estate planning, investment and asset management services and a comprehensive suite of cash management services. The geographic areas in which the Company provides products and services include the communities in and surrounding Jefferson City, Columbia, Clinton, Warsaw, Springfield, Branson, and the greater Kansas City metropolitan area.
The Company’s primary source of revenue is net interest income derived primarily from lending and deposit taking activities. 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 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 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.
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.

Total non-interest expense was $36.5 million for both the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, and decreased $4.3 million, or 10.4%, to $36.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013.
Salaries decreased $410,000, or 2.6%, for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to the year ended December 31, 2014, and increased $1.0 million, or 7.0%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013. The decrease for the year ended 2015 over 2014 was primarily due to a decrease in the accrual estimate for the 2015 incentive program to be paid in 2016 and an increase in deferred loan costs. The increase for the year ended 2014 over 2013 was primarily due to the accrual for a 2014 incentive program approved by the Board of Directors in the third quarter of 2014.
Employee benefits increased $825,000, or 17.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to the year ended December 31, 2014, and decreased $192,000, or 4.0%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase for the year ended 2015 over 2014 was primarily due to an increase in 401(k) profit-sharing and pension expenses, and the decrease for the year ended 2014 over 2013 was primarily due to a decrease in the pension expense.

​
Legal, examination, and professional fees increased $162,000, or 14.0%, for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to December 31, 2014, and increased $177,000, or 18.0%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase in 2015 over 2014 primarily related to an increase in legal fees related a class action lawsuit that concluded in 2016 in favor of the Company, legal fees related to foreclosed property, and additional consulting fees incurred for outsourcing control and compliance testing. The increase in 2014 over 2013 primarily consisted of an increase in legal fees related to impaired loans, an increase in audit fees primarily related to additional services required, an increase in additional tax consultation services, and an increase in consulting fees related to strategic planning.
Real estate foreclosure expense and (gains), net decreased $1.1 million, or 126.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to the year ended December 31, 2014, and decreased $4.1 million, or 82.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013.
Net gains recognized on other real estate owned were $671,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to net losses of  $371,000 and $3.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Expenses to maintain these foreclosed properties were $448,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $474,000 and $1.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. During 2015, gains were recognized on two properties sold during the first quarter and one new foreclosure in the third quarter resulting in a net gain. The significant decrease in net losses and expenses during 2015 and 2014 compared to 2013, primarily related to two hotels located in the Branson area that were sold at auction during the second quarter of 2013.
Other non-interest expense increased $391,000, or 12.5%, for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to the year ended December 31, 2014, and decreased $391,000, or 11.1%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase in 2015 over 2014 was primarily due to an impairment write-down on a building held for sale partially offset by the loss recorded due to employee fraud that management discovered during the third quarter of 2014. The decrease in 2014 over 2013 primarily related to a decrease in core deposit intangible (CDI) asset amortization which became fully amortized in the second quarter of 2013, reduced levels of credit card dispute charge-offs, and a decrease in consumer loan expense primarily related to a write-down on repossessed mining equipment during the second quarter of 2013. This decrease was partially offset by a loss recorded due to employee fraud that management discovered during the third quarter of 2014.
Comparing fourth quarter 2015 to third quarter 2015
Consolidated net income available to shareholders’ decreased to $2.0 million for the fourth quarter 2015 compared to $2.5 million for the third quarter 2015. Net interest income decreased to $10.2 million for the fourth quarter 2015 compared to $10.6 for the third quarter of 2015 with $1.1 billion in average interest earning assets for both periods.
No provision for loan losses was required for both the fourth and third quarter of 2015. Net charge-offs for the fourth quarter 2015 were $642,000, or 0.07% of average loans, compared to $740,000, or 0.08% of average loans for the third quarter 2015.
Non-interest income increased to $2.4 million for the fourth quarter 2015 compared to $2.3 million for the third quarter of 2015. The increase primarily resulted from a legal settlement on a foreclosed property and an increase in real estate servicing fees. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in service charges and other fees, bank card income and fees, trust department income, and gain on sale of mortgage loans. 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 $225,000 for the fourth quarter 2015 compared to $206,000 for the third quarter 2015. Total net losses recognized due to the change in fair value of MSRs arising from inputs and assumptions were $9,000 for the fourth quarter 2015 compared to $29,000 for the third quarter 2015. The Company’s loans sold were $11.4 million for the fourth 2015 compared to $11.2 million for the third quarter of 2015.

The decrease in salary expense for the fourth quarter of 2015 over the third quarter of 2015 primarily related to adjusting the accrual estimate based on year-end results for the 2015 incentive program, and the decrease in employee benefits for the fourth quarter of 2015 over the third quarter of 2015 primarily related to a decrease in the annual accrual for profit-sharing. The increases in processing, network, and bank card expenses were primarily due to expenses incurred to increase debit card security.
Comparing fourth quarter 2015 to fourth quarter 2014
Consolidated net income available to shareholders remained unchanged at $2.0 million for both the fourth quarter 2015 and 2014. Net interest income increased to $10.2 million for the fourth quarter 2015 compared to $10.0 million for the fourth quarter 2014 with $1.1 billion in average interest earning assets for both periods.

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 $225,000 for the fourth quarter 2015 compared to $224,000 for the fourth quarter 2014. Total net losses recognized due to the change in fair value of MSRs arising from inputs and assumptions were $9,000 for the fourth quarter 2015 compared to $190,000 for the fourth quarter 2014. The Company’s loans sold were $11.4 million for the fourth 2015 compared to $11.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2014.
Non-interest expense increased to $9.5 million for the fourth quarter 2015 compared to $9.1 million for the fourth quarter 2014. This increase primarily resulted from an increase in employee benefits, processing, network, and bank card expense, legal, examination, and professional fees, and other non-interest expense. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in salary expense and real estate foreclosure expense. The increase in employee benefits for the fourth quarter of 2015 over the fourth quarter of 2014 primarily related to an increase in 401(k) profit-sharing and pension expense. The increase in processing, network, and bank card expenses were primarily due to expenses incurred to increase debit card security. The increase in legal fees primarily resulted from a class action lawsuit, and additional consulting fees incurred for outsourcing control and compliance testing.

The decrease in real estate foreclosure expenses resulted from a decrease in the net losses recognized on other real estate owned of  $18,000 for the fourth quarter 2015 compared to net losses of  $76,000 for the fourth quarter 2014. Expenses to maintain these foreclosed properties were $111,000 for the fourth quarter 2015 compared to $112,000 for the fourth quarter 2014.
Income taxes

The increase in the effective tax rate in 2015 and 2014 is primarily due to an increase in earnings before income taxes.

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 310-10-35 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 totaled $26.3 million at December 31, 2015 compared to $47.9 million at December 31, 2014. Nonperforming loans, defined as loans on non-accrual status, loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing, and TDRs totaled $10.3 million, or 1.19%, of total loans at December 31, 2015 compared to $36.0 million, or 4.18%, of total loans at December 31, 2014. Non-accrual loans included $527,000 and $1.6 million of loans classified as TDRs at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
As of December 31, 2015, approximately $5.7 million compared to $9.6 million at December 31, 2014, 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
17

​
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, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
Total non-accrual loans at December 31, 2015 decreased $13.8 million to $4.4 million compared to $18.2 million at December 31, 2014. This decrease primarily consisted of a $5.0 million decrease in commercial, financial and agricultural loans, $1.8 million decrease in real estate construction – residential loans, $2.0 million decrease in real estate construction – commercial loans, $2.1 million decrease in real estate mortgage – residential loans, and a $2.9 million decrease in real estate mortgage – commercial loans. The decrease in non-accrual loans primarily resulted from the sale of a piece of collateral, transfers of impaired loans to other real estate owned and repossessed assets, and seven loan relationships that returned to performing status.
Loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest at December 31, 2015, were $6,000 compared to $58,000 at December 31, 2014. Other real estate owned and repossessed assets at December 31, 2015 of $16.0 million compared to $11.9 million at December 31, 2014. During the year ended December 31, 2015, $5.8 million of nonaccrual loans, net of charge-offs taken, moved to other real estate owned and repossessed assets compared to $2.0 million the year ended December 31, 2014.

​

At December 31, 2015, loans classified as TDRs totaled $6.4 million, with $1.0 million of specific reserves, of which $527,000 were classified as nonperforming TDRs and $5.9 million were classified as performing TDRs. This is compared to $19.3 million of loans classified as TDRs, with $1.0 million of specific reserves, of which $1.6 million were classified as nonperforming TDRs and $17.7 million were classified as performing TDRs at December 31, 2014. Both performing and nonperforming TDRs are considered impaired loans. 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. The net decrease in total TDRs from December 31, 2014 to December 31, 2015 was primarily due to $2.0 million additions to TDRs that
18

​
were offset by $309,000 charged off, $180,000 moved to ORE, approximately $2.2 million of payments received, and $12.3 million from five loan relationships moved to performing loans due to subsequent restructuring at market rates and terms followed by satisfactory payment performance.

​

The allowance for loan losses was $8.6 million, or 0.99%, of loans outstanding at December 31, 2015 compared to $9.1 million, or 1.06%, of loans outstanding at December 31, 2014. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans, excluding performing TDRs, was 194.48% at December 31, 2015, compared to 49.72% at December 31, 2014.
The following table is a summary of the general and specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses:

(In thousands) | ​ | ​ | 2015 | ​ | ​ | 2014 | ​ | ​ | 2013 | ​ | ​ | 2012 | ​ | ​ | 2011 | ​

Total | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 8,604 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 9,099 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 13,719 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 14,842 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 13,809 | ​ | ​
​

Specific reserves decreased to $1.5 million at December 31, 2015 compared to $1.7 million at December 31, 2014. The decrease in total reserves from December 31, 2014 primarily occurred in real estate mortgage loans, partially offset by an increase in the reserves for commercial, financial, and agricultural loans. The decrease in real estate mortgage - commercial reserves was primarily due to a decrease in historical loss rates over the three year look back period. The increase in commercial, financial, and agricultural reserves primarily related to one loan relationship due to increased exposure resulting from liquidation of collateral during the year.
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, 2015, $1.5 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses was allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $10.3 million compared to $1.7 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses (ALL) allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $36.0 million at December 31, 2014. Management determined that $4.5 million, or 44%, of total impaired loans required no reserve allocation at December 31, 2015 compared to $28.5 million, or 79%, at December 31, 2014 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 loss rates to pools of loans by asset type. 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. 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 qualitative risk factors that allow management to adjust its estimates of losses based on the most recent information available and to address other limitations in the quantitative component that is based on historical loss rates. Such risk factors are generally reviewed and updated quarterly, as appropriate, and are adjusted to reflect changes in national and local economic conditions and developments, the nature, volume and terms of loans in the portfolio, including changes in volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of nonaccrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded loans, loan concentrations, assessment of trends in collateral values, assessment of changes in the quality of the Company’s internal loan review department, and changes in lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards and collections, charge-off and recovery practices. The combined historical loan loss rates and qualitative factors are multiplied by loss emergence periods (LEP) which represent the estimated time period between a borrower first experiencing financial difficulty and the recognition of a loss.
The specific and general reserve allocations represent management’s best estimate of probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the evaluation date. Although the allowance for loan losses is comprised of specific and general allocations, the entire allowance is available to absorb any credit losses.
Provision
A $250,000 provision was required for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to no provision for the year ended December 31, 2014, and a $2.0 million provision for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Net Loan Charge-offs
The Company’s net charge-offs were $745,000, or 0.09% of average loans, for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to net charge-offs of  $4.6 million, or 0.54% of average loans, for the year ended December 31, 2014, and $3.2 million, or 0.38% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2013. As detailed above, the Company’s recoveries increased for the year ended December 31, 2015 over the prior year primarily due to one loan relationship in commercial loans and one loan relationship in real estate construction loans. In addition to the increase in recoveries recorded during the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company also noted a decrease in charge-offs of  $3.6 million compared to the prior year.
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, 2015, the investment portfolio classified as available-for-sale represented 19.6% 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.
The following table presents the composition of the investment portfolio by major category:

Rates on obligations of states and political subdivisions have been adjusted to fully taxable equivalent rates using the statutory federal income tax rate of 34%.
​
At December 31, 2015 $8,134 of debt securities classified as available-for-sale in the table above had variable rate provisions with adjustment periods ranging from one week to twelve months.
The following non-marketable securities are restricted securities which, lacking a market, are carried at cost. These securities are reported in other assets. At December 31, 2015 $3.4 million of the total included Federal Home Loan Bank (Des Moines) stock held by the Bank in accordance with debt and regulatory requirements. Other non-marketable securities include a $1.5 million equity investment in the Company’s unconsolidated Exchange Statutory Trusts and $3.0 million in a subordinated debt equity security.

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.
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 Bank.

Total | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 242,947 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 219,443
​

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 $235.1 million at
22

​
December 31, 2015 and included an unrealized net loss of  $1.3 million. The portfolio includes projected maturities and mortgage backed securities pay-downs of approximately $26.4 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. The Company’s unpledged securities in the available for sale portfolio totaled approximately $52.4 million and $53.4 million at December 31, 2015 and 2014, 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, 2015, such deposits totaled $649.1 million and represented 68.5% 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 $298.1 million at December 31, 2015. These accounts are normally considered more volatile and higher costing representing 31.5% of total deposits at December 31, 2015.
Core deposits at December 31, 2015 and 2014 were as follows:

Total | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 649,115 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 649,831 | ​ | ​
​

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, 2015, under agreements with these unaffiliated banks, the Bank may borrow up to $40.0 million in federal funds on an unsecured basis and $8.6 million on a secured basis. There were no federal funds purchased outstanding at December 31, 2015. 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, 2015, there was $56.8 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, 2015.
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, 2015, the Bank had $50.0 million in outstanding borrowings with the FHLB. In addition, the Company has $49.5 million at December 31, 2015 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, 2015, loans with a market value of  $350.5 million were pledged to the Federal Home Loan Bank as collateral for borrowings and letters of credit. At December 31, 2015, investments with a market value of  $9.6 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, 2015 compared to $42.8 million at December 31, 2014. The $14.4 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, 2015. Cash flow provided from operating activities consists mainly of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items. Operating activities provided cash flow of  $13.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2015.
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  $50.2 million. The cash outflow primarily consisted of  $102.3 million purchases of investment securities and a $9.2 million increase in the loan portfolio, partially offset by $63.0 million in proceeds from investment maturities, calls, and pay-downs, $720,000 in proceeds from sales of investment securities, and $1.8 million in proceeds received from sales of other real estate owned and repossessed assets.
Financing activities provided cash of  $22.5 million, resulting primarily from a $38.9 million in federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and a $7.0 million net advance from Federal Home Loan Bank, partially offset by a $22.0 million decrease in interest-bearing transaction accounts and in time deposits. Future short-term liquidity needs arising from daily operations are not expected to vary significantly during 2016.
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 $165.9
24

​
million in unused loan commitments and standby letters of credit as of December 31, 2015. 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 shareholders. The Company paid cash dividends to its common shareholders totaling approximately $1.0 million for both the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. A large portion of the Company’s liquidity is obtained from the Bank in the form of dividends. The Bank declared and paid $1.0 million and $2.5 million in dividends to the Company during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $5.0 million and $1.0 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.
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 the Company began on January 1, 2015. The Federal Reserve System’s (FRB) capital adequacy guidelines require that bank holding companies maintain a Common Equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio equal to at least 4.5% of its risk-weighted assets, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio equal to at least 6% of its risk-weighted assets and a total risk-based capital ratio equal to at least 8% of its risk-weighted assets. In addition, bank holding companies generally are required to maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 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. Institutions that do not maintain the required capital buffer will become subject to progressively more stringent limitations on the percentage of earnings that can be paid out in dividends or used for stock repurchases and on the payment of discretionary bonuses to senior executive management. The capital conservation buffer requirement will be phased in over four years beginning in 2016. The capital conservation buffer requirement effectively raises the minimum required risk-based capital ratios to 7% Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, 8.5% Tier 1 Capital and 10.5% Total Capital on a fully phased-in basis.
Under the Basel III requirements, at December 31, 2015, the Company met all capital adequacy requirements and had regulatory capital ratios in excess of the levels established for well-capitalized institutions, as shown in the following table as of December 31, for the years indicated:

​ | ​ | ​ | 2015 | ​ | ​ | 2014 | ​ | ​ | 2013 | ​ | ​ | 2012 | ​ | ​ | 2011 | ​ | ​ | Minimum Ratios required for Capital Adequacy Guidelines * | ​ | ​ | Minimum Ratios for Well-Capitalized Under Prompt Corrective Action Banks | ​

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. 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 for a total purchase price of  $12.1 million, and on May 15, 2013, the remaining 18,255 shares were redeemed for a total purchase price of  $18.5 million.
On June 11, 2013, the common stock warrant issued under the U.S. Treasury Department’s CPP program was repurchased by the Company for a total purchase price of  $540,000, or $1.88 per warrant share. The purchase price was based on the fair value of the warrant as agreed upon by the Company and the Treasury. The repurchase of the warrant ended the Company’s participation in the U.S. Treasury Department’s CPP.
Stock Dividend For the seventh consecutive year, on July 1, 2015, the Company distributed a four percent stock dividend to common shareholders of record at the close of business on June 15, 2015. For all periods presented, share information, including basic and diluted earnings per share, has been adjusted retroactively to reflect the stock dividend.
Repurchase Program On August 6, 2015, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase plan to purchase through open market transactions $2.0 million market value of the Company’s common stock. During 2015, the Company repurchased 2,155 shares of common stock pursuant to the plan at an average price of  $15.39 per share.

In the normal course of business, the Company is party to activities that contain credit, market and operational risk that are not reflected in whole or in part in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Such activities include traditional off-balance-sheet credit related financial instruments.
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, 2015 are as follows:

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | Amount of Commitment Expiration per Period | ​
(In thousands) | ​ | ​ | Total | ​ | ​ | Less than 1 Year | ​ | ​ | 1-3 Years | ​ | ​ | 3-5 Years | ​ | ​ | Over 5 Years | ​ | ​

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, 2015, the rate shock scenario models indicated that annual net interest income could change by as much as -16.8% to +21.4% 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, 2015. 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.
27

​
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, 2015.
Impact of New Accounting Standards
Revenue from Contracts with Customers The FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, in May 2014. The ASU supersedes revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance identifies specific steps that entities should apply in order to achieve this principle. The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2017 and must be applied retrospectively. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the ASU’s adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Transfers and Servicing The FASB issued ASU 2014-11, Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures, in September 2014. The amendments require that repurchase-to-maturity transactions and repurchase agreements that are part of financing arrangements be accounted for as secured borrowings. The amendments also require additional disclosures for certain transfers accounted for as sales. The accounting changes and the disclosures on sales are required to be presented in interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2015. This ASU also requires disclosures about types of collateral, contractual tenor and potential risks for transactions accounted for as secured borrowings. These disclosures are required in interim and annual periods beginning April 1, 2015. The adoption is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern Uncertainties The FASB has issued ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern in August 2014. ASU 2014-15 is intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), financial statements are prepared under the presumption that the reporting organization will continue to operate as a going concern, except in limited circumstances. Financial reporting under this presumption is commonly referred to as the going concern basis of accounting. The going concern basis of accounting is critical to financial reporting because it establishes the fundamental basis for measuring and classifying assets and liabilities. Currently, GAAP lacks guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the organization’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. This ASU provides guidance to an organization’s management, with principles and definitions that are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of disclosures that are commonly provided by organizations today in the financial statement footnotes. The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. The adoption is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Consolidation The FASB has issued ASU No. 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. The amendment substantially changes the way reporting entities are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. All legal entities are subject to reevaluation under the new amendment. Specifically, the amendments modify the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are variable interest entities (VIEs) or voting interest entities, eliminate the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership, and affect the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs. The amendments in this update are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2015-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The adoption is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
28

​
Intangible Assets The FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement, in April 2015. The amendments provide guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. Arrangements containing a license should be recorded as consistent with the acquisition of software licenses, whereas arrangements that do not include a software license should be recorded as consistent with the accounting for service contracts. These amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2016. The adoption is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Financial Instruments The FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, in January 2016. The amendments require all equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in the fair value recognized through net income, other than those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in the consolidation of the investee. Additionally, these amendments require presentation in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk for those liabilities measured at fair value. The amendments also require use of the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. These amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2018. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the ASU’s adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, including potential changes to the Company’s note disclosure of the fair value of its loan portfolio.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013
(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, Columbia, Clinton, Warsaw, Springfield, Branson, and the greater Kansas City metropolitan area. 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.
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 loans are classified as held for sale upon origination based on management’s intent to sell and are accounted for at the lower of adjusted cost or fair value. Adjusted cost reflects the funded loan amount and any loan origination costs and fees. 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. Mortgage loans held for sale were $1.2 million at December 31, 2015 compared to no loans held for sale at December 31, 2014.
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
37

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013
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 loan is accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) if the Company, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrowers’ financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. A TDR typically involves (1) modification of terms such as a reduction of the stated interest rate, loan principal, accrued interest, or an extended maturity date (2) a loan renewal at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for a new loan with similar risk, or (3) debt that was not reaffirmed in bankruptcy. Nonperforming TDRs are returned to performing 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 performing and non-performing TDRs in the impaired and non-performing asset totals. The Company measures the impairment loss of a TDR in the same manner as described below. TDRs which are performing under their contractual terms continue to accrue interest which is recognized in current earnings.
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. When loans become 90 days past due, they are generally placed on nonaccrual status or charged off unless extenuating circumstances justify leaving the loan on accrual basis. When loans reach 120 days past due and there is little likelihood of repayment, they are charged off. 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.
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.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013
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 by risk characteristics and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type. 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 qualitative risk factors that allow management to adjust its estimates of losses based on the most recent information available and to address other limitations in the quantitative component that is based on historical loss rates. Such risk factors are generally reviewed and updated quarterly, as appropriate, and are adjusted to reflect changes in national and local economic conditions and developments, the nature, volume and terms of loans in the portfolio, including changes in volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of nonaccrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded loans, loan concentrations, assessment of trends in collateral values, assessment of changes in the quality of the Company’s internal loan review department, and changes in lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards and collections, charge-off and recovery practices. The combined historical loan loss rates and qualitative factors are multiplied by loss emergence periods (LEP) which represent the estimated time period between a borrower first experiencing financial difficulty and the recognition of a loss.
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 Agency, 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 4.00% of advances from the FHLB to the Bank. These invest-ments are recorded at cost, which represents redemption value.

December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013
Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation applicable to buildings and improve-ments 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.
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.
In addition to the changes in fair value of the mortgage servicing rights, the Company also recorded loan servicing fee income as part of real estate servicing fees, net in the statement of income. Loan servicing fee income represents revenue earned for servicing mortgage loans. The servicing fees are based on contractual percentage of the outstanding principal balance and recognized as revenue as the related mortgage payments are collected. Corresponding loan servicing costs are changed to expense as incurred.
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.
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. The Company has not recognized any tax liabilities or any interest or penalties in income tax expense related to uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013.
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.
The following represents significant new accounting principles adopted in 2015:
Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures
The FASB issued ASU No. 2014-01, Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects, in January 2014. These amendments allow investors in low income housing tax credit entities to account for the investments using a proportional amortization method, provided that certain conditions are met, and recognize amortization of the investment as a component of income tax expense. In addition, disclosures are required that will enable users to understand the nature of the investments, and the effect of the measurement of the investments and the related tax credits on the investor’s financial statements. This ASU was effective January 1, 2015, and the adoption of this pronouncement did not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors
The FASB issued ASU No. 2014-04, Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure, in January 2014. These amendments require companies to disclose the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held and the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate properties for which formal foreclosure proceedings are in process according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. The ASU also defines when a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan. This ASU was effective January 1, 2015, and the adoption of this pronouncement did not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013
The FASB issued ASU No. 2014-14, Classification of Certain Government-Guaranteed Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure in August 2014. The objective of this update is to reduce diversity in practice by addressing the classification of foreclosed mortgage loans that are fully or partially guaranteed under government programs, including those guaranteed by the FHA and the VA. Some creditors reclassify those loans to real estate consistent with other foreclosed loans that do not have guarantees; others reclassify the loans to other receivables. The amendments in this ASU require that a mortgage loan be derecognized and that a separate other receivable be recognized upon foreclosure if the following conditions are met: (1) The loan has a government guarantee that is not separable from the loan before foreclosure; (2) At the time of foreclosure, the creditor has the intent to convey the real estate property to the guarantor and make a claim on the guarantee, and the creditor has the ability to recover under that claim; and (3) At the time of foreclosure, any amount of the claim that is determined on the basis of the fair value of the real estate is fixed. Upon foreclosure, the separate other receivable should be measured based on the amount of the loan balance (principal and interest) expected to be recovered from the guarantor. This ASU was effective January 1, 2015, and the adoption of this pronouncement did not have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

​

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 individually evaluated for impairment totaled $10.3 million and $36.0 million at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and are comprised of loans on non-accrual status and loans which have been classified as troubled debt restructurings (TDRs).
The net carrying value of impaired loans is 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, 2015 and 2014, $6.4 million and $15.6 million, respectively, of impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value less estimated selling costs of the loan’s collateral. Once the impairment amount is calculated, a specific reserve allocation is recorded. At December 31, 2015, $1.5 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses was allocated to impaired loans totaling $10.3 million compared to $1.7 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $36.0 million at December 31, 2014. Management determined that $4.5 million, or 44%, of total impaired loans required no reserve allocation at December 31, 2015 compared to $28.5 million, or 79%, at December 31, 2014 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 $328,000 and $701,000, for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The average recorded investment in impaired loans is calculated on a monthly basis during the years reported.
Delinquent and Non-Accrual Loans
The delinquency status of loans is determined based on the contractual terms of the notes. Borrowers are generally classified as delinquent once payments become 30 days or more past due. The Company’s policy is to discontinue the accrual of interest income on any loan when, in the opinion of management, the ultimate collectibility of interest or principal is no longer probable. In general, loans are placed on non-accrual when they become 90 days or more past due. However, management considers many factors before placing a loan on non-accrual, including the delinquency status of the loan, the overall financial condition of the borrower, the progress of management’s collection efforts and the value of the underlying collateral. Non-accrual loans are returned to accrual status when, in the opinion of management, the financial condition of the borrower indicates that the timely collectibility of interest and principal is probable and the borrower demonstrates the ability to pay under the terms of the note through a sustained period of repayment performance, which is generally six months.

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 one or more weaknesses that may result in the deterioration of the repayment exits or the Company’s credit position at some future date. 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. A loan is classified as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties that lead to the restructuring of a loan, and the Company grants concessions to the borrower in the restructuring that it would not otherwise consider. Loans classified as TDRs which are accruing interest are classified as performing TDRs. Loans classified as TDRs which are not accruing interest are classified as nonperforming TDRs and are included with all other nonaccrual loans for presentation purposes. 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, 2015, loans classified as TDRs totaled $6.4 million, of which $527,000 were classified as nonperforming TDRs and included in non-accrual loans and $5.9 million were classified as performing TDRs. At December 31, 2014, TDRs totaled $19.3 million, of which $1.6 million were classified as nonperforming TDRs included in non-accrual loans and $17.7 million were classified as performing TDRs. Both performing and nonperforming TDRs are considered impaired loans. 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  $1.0 million related to TDRs were allocated to the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2015 and 2014.
The following table summarizes loans that were modified as TDRs during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.

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 for the borrower due to deteriorated financial condition such as interest rates below the current market rate, deferring principal payments, and extending maturity dates. During the year ended December 31, 2015, seven loans meeting the TDR criteria were modified compared to four loans during the year ended December 31, 2014.
Upon default of a TDR, which is considered to be 90 days or more past due under the modified terms, impairment is measured based on the fair value of the underlying collateral less applicable selling costs. The impairment amount is either charged off as a reduction to the allowance for loan losses, provided for as a

The total available for sale portfolio consisted of approximately 316 securities at December 31, 2015. The portfolio included 71 securities having an aggregate fair value of  $147.5 million that were in a loss position at December 31, 2015. Securities identified as temporarily impaired which had been in a loss position for 12 months or longer totaled $45.3 million at fair value. The $2.0 million aggregate unrealized loss included in accumulated other comprehensive income at December 31, 2015 was caused by interest rate fluctuations.
The total available for sale portfolio consisted of approximately 300 securities at December 31, 2014. The portfolio included 74 securities having an aggregate fair value of  $82.2 million that were in a loss position at December 31, 2014. Securities identified as temporarily impaired which had been in a loss position for 12 months or longer totaled $65.2 million at fair value. The $1.3 million aggregate unrealized loss included in accumulated other comprehensive income at December 31, 2014 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, 2015 and 2014. In addition, the Company does not have the intent to sell these investments over the period of recovery, and it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell such investment securities.

The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB) and has access to term financing from the FHLB. These borrowings are secured under a blanket agreement which assigns all investment in FHLB stock, as well as qualifying first mortgage loans as collateral to secure amounts borrowed by the Bank. The outstanding balance of  $50.0 million includes $10.0 million, which the FHLB may call for early payment within the next year. Based upon the collateral pledged to the FHLB at December 31, 2015, the Bank could borrow up to an additional $207.5 million under the agreement.
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 (2.36% at December 31, 2015). 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 (3.23% at December 31, 2015). 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 ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income of the appropriate character during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, taxable income available in carryback years, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. With the exception of certain capital losses generated during 2013 and 2014, it is management’s opinion that the Company will more likely than not realize the benefits of these temporary differences as of December 31, 2015 and, therefore, only established a valuation reserve against the Company’s capital loss carry forward. Management arrived at this conclusion 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. As indicated above, the Company generated approximately $219,000 of capital losses during 2013 and 2014 as a result of disposing of certain limited partnership interests. The capital losses will expire between 2019 and 2020, and it is management’s opinion that the Company will not more likely than not generate the capital gain income necessary to utilize the capital loss carry forwards before the capital losses expire. As such, the Company has established an $83,000 valuation reserve against its capital loss carry forward deferred tax asset.
The Company follows ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which addresses the accounting for uncertain tax positions. As of December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013 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 made $716,000 of contributions to the defined benefit plan for the current plan year. There is a $758,000 minimum required contribution for the 2016 plan year. The Company has not determined whether it will make any contributions other than the minimum required funding for 2016.

Total recognized in net periodic pension cost and other comprehensive income | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 1,242 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 4,449
​

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 2016 is $79,000. During 2016, there is no estimated amount of actuarial loss subject to amortization into net periodic pension cost.
Assumptions utilized to determine benefit obligations as of December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 and to determine pension expense for the years then ended are as follows:

​ | ​ | ​ | 2015 | ​ | ​ | 2014 | ​ | ​ | 2013 | ​
Determination of benefit obligation at year end: | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Discount rate | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 4.70% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 4.25% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 5.00% | ​ | ​
Annual rate of compensation increase | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 3.78% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 3.78% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 3.73% | ​ | ​
Determination of pension expense for year ended: | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Discount rate for the service cost | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 4.25% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 5.00% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 4.25% | ​ | ​
Annual rate of compensation increase | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 3.78% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 3.73% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 3.61% | ​ | ​
Expected long-term rate of return on plan assets | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 7.00% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 7.00% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 7.00% | ​ | ​

The assumed overall expected long-term rate of return on pension plan assets used in calculating 2015 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: -0.4% in 2015, 8.3% in 2014, 19.1% in 2013, 11.4% in 2012, and 0.1% in 2011. 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 an increase in discount rates used in the actuarial calculation of plan income, the Company expects to incur $1.2 million of expense in 2016 compared to $1.4 million 2015.
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. The Company regularly reviews its policies on the investment mix and may make changes depending on economic conditions and perceived investment mix.

On June 11, 2013, the common stock warrant issued under the U.S. Treasury Department’s CPP program was repurchased by the Company for a total purchase price of  $540,000, or $1.88 per warrant share. The purchase 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 ended the Company’s participation in the U.S. Treasury Department’s CPP.
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the year.
Presented below is a summary of the components used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per common share, which have been restated for all stock dividends.

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, 2015, 2014 and 2013 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.

(14) 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, 2015 and 2014, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements.
In July 2013, the federal bank regulators approved final rules (the “Basel III Rule”) implementing Basel III framework as well as certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The Basel III Rule also substantially revises the risk-based capital requirements applicable to bank holding companies and their depository institution subsidiaries, including the Company and the Bank, as compared to the general risk-based capital rules. The Basel III Rule revises the components of capital and addresses other issues affecting the numerator in regulatory capital ratios. The Basel III Rule also address asset risk weights and other issues affecting the denominator in regulatory capital ratios and replace the existing general risk-weighting approach based on Basel I with a more risk-sensitive approach. The Basel III Rule became effective for the Company and the Bank on January 1, 2015 (subject to a phase-in period for certain provisions). As of December 31, 2015, the capital ratios (as set forth in the table below) are calculated under the new Basel III rules. As of December 31, 2014, the capital ratios (as set forth in the table below) are calculated under the former Basel I rules
As of December 31, 2015, 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

(15) 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 Measurement, 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, 2015 and 2014 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.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013
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, 2015, the Company identified $5.7 million in impaired loans that had specific allowances for losses aggregating $1.5 million. Related to these loans, there was $1.9 million in charge-offs recorded during the year ended December 31, 2015. As of December 31, 2014, the Company identified $7.4 million in impaired loans that had specific allowances for losses aggregating $1.7 million. Related to these loans, there was $5.4 million in charge-offs recorded during the year ended December 31, 2014.
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.

(16) 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.
(17) Repurchase Reserve Liability
The Company’s repurchase reserve liability for estimated losses incurred on sold loans was $160,000 at both December 31, 2015 and 2014. 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. At December 31, 2015, the Company was servicing 3,024 loans sold to the secondary market with a balance of approximately $312.1 million compared to 3,057 loans sold with a balance of approximately $313.9 million at December 31, 2014.

(18) 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, 2015, 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, 2015 and 2014 is as follows:

(in thousands) | ​ | ​ | 2015 | ​ | ​ | 2014 | ​
Commitments to extend credit | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 161,306 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 135,137 | ​ | ​
Commitments to originate residential first and second mortgage loans | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 3,175 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 1,640 | ​ | ​
Standby letters of credit | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 1,466 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 1,621 | ​ | ​
Total | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 165,947 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 138,398 | ​ | ​

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, 2015.
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.
