Basis of Presentation [Abstract]
BASIS OF PRESENTATION	NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION SB Financial Group, Inc., an Ohio corporation (the “Company”), is a financial holding company whose principal activity is the ownership and management of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, The State Bank and Trust Company (“State Bank”), RFCBC, Inc. (“RFCBC”), Rurbanc Data Services, Inc. dba RDSI Banking Systems (“RDSI”), and Rurban Statutory Trust II (“RST II”). In addition, State Bank owns all of the outstanding stock of Rurban Mortgage Company (“RMC”) and State Bank Insurance, LLC (“SBI”). In March 2019, the Company formed SBFG Title, LLC (“Title”) and purchased all of the assets and real estate of an Ohio based title agency. The purchase was completed effective March 15, 2019, and its results had minimal impact on the Company’s results in the first quarter of 2019. The purchase resulted in an increase in goodwill, which is detailed in Note 11. In March 2019, the Company activated SB Captive, Inc. (“Captive”), which is a captive insurance company based in Nevada. The Captive allows the Company to share insurance risk among a pool of similar sized banks. The results of the Captive had minimal impact on the Company’s results in the first quarter of 2019. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, State Bank, RFCBC, RDSI, RMC, Title, Captive and SBI. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company. Those adjustments consist only of normal recurring adjustments. Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019, are not necessarily indicative of results for the complete year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2018 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of that date. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. New and applicable accounting pronouncements: ASU No. 2018-07: Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) This Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) expands the scope of Topic 718, to include share-based payments issued to nonemployees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned. This ASU supersedes Subtopic 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. The amendments in this ASU became effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2018. At this time, the Company does not recognize the existence of any nonemployee relationships involving share-based payments. ASU No. 2016-02: Leases (Topic 842) The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The new standard establishes a right-of-use asset model that requires a lessee to record an asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity may adopt the new guidance either by restating prior periods and recording a cumulative effect adjustment at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented or by recording a cumulative effect adjustment at the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company applied the standard by recording a cumulative effect adjustment at January 1, 2019. As the Company owns most of its branch locations, this ASU applied primarily to operating leases and the impact of adoption of this ASU by the Company was not material and resulted in a $0.3 million increase in assets and liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at adoption. ASU No. 2016-01: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities (Topic 825) This ASU has a number of provisions including the requirements that public business entities use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, a separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (i.e. securities or loans receivables). This ASU also eliminated the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. The amendment was adopted by the Company in the first quarter of 2018 and did not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements or on fair value and other required disclosures. ASU No. 2014-09: Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) This ASU implements a common revenue standard that clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue. The core principle of the amendment 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 and services. ASU 2014-09 establishes a five-step model, which entities must follow to recognize revenue and removes inconsistencies and weaknesses in existing guidance. The majority of our revenue-generating transactions are not subject to ASC 606, including revenue generated from financial instruments, such as our loans, letters of credit, derivatives and investment securities, as well as revenue related to our mortgage servicing activities, as these activities are subject to other GAAP discussed elsewhere within our disclosures. ASU 2014-09 was adopted on January 1, 2018 and had no material effect on how we recognize revenue or to our consolidated financial statements and disclosures. ASU No. 2017-12: Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) This ASU improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity’s risk management activities in its financial statements. The ASU also makes targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance. The amendments in this ASU became effective for fiscal years after December 15, 2018 and the Company adopted these amendments. The impact of these amendments was immaterial to the Company’s financial statements. Interest Income – The largest source of revenue for the Company is interest income, which is primarily recognized on an accrual basis according to nondiscretionary formulas in written contracts, such as loan and lease agreements or investment securities contracts. Noninterest Income – The Company earns noninterest income through a variety of financial and transaction services provided to corporate and consumer clients such as wealth management, deposit account, debit card and mortgage banking. Revenue is recorded for noninterest income based on the contractual terms for the service or transaction performed. In certain circumstances, noninterest income is reported net of associated expenses. Accounting Standards not yet adopted: ASU No. 2018-13: Fair Value Measurement - Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) The updated guidance improves the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. The ASU removes certain disclosures required by Topic 820 related to transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; the policy for timing of transfers between levels; the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements; and for nonpublic entities, the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in earnings for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period. The ASU modifies certain disclosures required by Topic 820 related to disclosure of transfers into and out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and purchases and issues of Level 3 assets and liabilities for nonpublic entities; the requirement to disclose the timing of liquidation of an investee’s assets and the date when restrictions from redemption might lapse only if the investee has communicated the timing to the entity or announced the timing publicly for investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value; and clarification that the measurement uncertainty disclosure is to communicate information about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date. The ASU adds certain disclosure requirements related to changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and the range and weighted-average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. For certain unobservable inputs, an entity may disclose other quantitative information in lieu of the weighted- average if the entity determines that other quantitative information would be a more reasonable and rational method to reflect the distribution of unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this update become effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements, but it is not expected to have a material impact. ASU No. 2017-04: Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) This ASU simplifies the test for goodwill impairment. Specifically, these amendments eliminate Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test, and also eliminate the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and management does not believe the changes will have a material effect on the Company’s accounting and disclosures. ASU No. 2016-13: Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) This ASU, which is commonly known as “CECL,” replaces the current GAAP incurred impairment methodology regarding credit losses with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The amendments in this update affect an entity to varying degrees depending on the credit quality of the assets held by the entity, their duration, and how the entity applies current GAAP. The amendments in this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and management will need further study to determine the impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company implemented a process to track required data by utilizing accounting software in preparation for compliance. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 is likely to result in an increase in the allowance for loan losses as a result of changing from an “incurred loss” model, which encompasses allowances for current known and inherent losses within the portfolio, to an “expected loss” model, which encompasses allowances for losses expected to be incurred over the life of the portfolio. Furthermore, ASU 2016-13 will necessitate that we establish an allowance for expected credit losses on debt securities. While we are currently unable to reasonably estimate the impact of adopting ASU 2016-13, we expect that the impact of adoption will be significantly influenced by the composition, characteristics and quality of our loan and securities portfolios as well as the prevailing economic conditions and forecasts as of the adoption date. We anticipate being fully prepared for implementation by December 15, 2019. In December 2018, the OCC, the Federal Reserve Board, and the FDIC approved a final rule to address changes to credit loss accounting under GAAP, including banking organizations’ implementation of CECL. The final rule provides banking organizations the option to phase in over a three-year period the day-one adverse effects on regulatory capital that may result from the adoption of the new accounting standard.
