Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
General
Auburn National Bancorporation, Inc. (the “Company”) provides
a full range of banking services to individual and
corporate customers in Lee County,
Alabama and surrounding counties through its wholly owned subsidiary,
AuburnBank
(the “Bank”). The Company does not have any segments other
than banking that are considered material.
Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
The unaudited consolidated financial statements in this report
have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial
information.
Accordingly, these financial
statements do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP
for complete financial statements.
The unaudited
consolidated financial statements include, in the opinion of management,
all adjustments necessary to present a fair
statement of the financial position and the results of operations for
all periods presented. All such adjustments are of a
normal recurring nature. The results of operations in the interim statements
are not necessarily indicative of the results of
operations that the Company and its subsidiaries may achieve
for future interim periods or the entire year.
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, 2020.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
Significant intercompany transactions and accounts are eliminated
in consolidation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.
GAAP requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of
the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change
in the near term
include other-than-temporary impairment on investment securities,
the determination of the allowance for loan losses, fair
value of financial instruments, and the valuation of deferred
tax assets and other real estate owned (“OREO”).
Revenue Recognition
On January 1, 2018, the Company implemented Accounting Standards
Update (“ASU”
or “updates”) 2014-09,
Revenue
from Contracts with Customers
, codified at
Accounting Standards Codification
(“ASC”)
606. The Company adopted ASC
606 using the modified retrospective transition method.
The majority of the Company’s revenue
stream is generated from
interest income on loans and deposits which are outside the scope
of ASC 606.
The Company’s sources of income that
fall within the scope of ASC 606 include service charges
on deposits, investment
services, interchange fees and gains and losses on sales of other
real estate, all of which are presented as components of
noninterest income. The following is a summary of the revenue streams
that fall within the scope of ASC 606:
●
Service charges on deposits, investment services, ATM
and interchange fees – Fees from these services are either
transaction-based, for which the performance obligations are satisfied
when the individual transaction is processed,
or set periodic service charges, for which the performance
obligations are satisfied over the period the service is
provided. Transaction-based fees are recognized
at the time the transaction is processed, and periodic
service
charges are recognized over the service period.
●
Gains on sales of OREO
–
A gain on sale should be recognized when a contract for sale exists and
control of the
asset has been transferred to the buyer.
ASC 606 lists several criteria required to conclude that a contract
for sale
exists, including a determination that the institution will collect
substantially all of the consideration to which it is
entitled.
In addition to the loan-to-value, the analysis is based
on various other factors, including the credit quality
of the borrower, the structure of the loan, and
any other factors that may affect collectability.

Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated the effects of events
and transactions through the date of this filing that have
occurred
subsequent to June 30, 2021. The Company does not believe
there were any material subsequent events during this period
that would have required further recognition or disclosure in the
unaudited consolidated financial statements included in
this report.
Accounting Developments
In the first six months of 2021, the Company did not adopt any new
accounting guidance.
NOTE 2: BASIC AND DILUTED NET EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic net earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings
by the weighted average common shares outstanding for
the respective period.
Diluted net earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could
occur upon exercise of
securities or other rights for, or convertible
into, shares of the Company’s common
stock.
At June 30, 2021 and 2020,
respectively, the Company had
no such securities or rights issued or outstanding, and therefore,
no dilutive effect to
consider for the diluted net earnings per share calculation.
The basic and diluted net earnings per share computations for
the respective periods are presented below

For the securities in the previous table, the Company does not
have the intent to sell and has determined it is not more likely
than not that the Company will be required to sell the securities
before recovery of the amortized cost basis, which may be
maturity.
On a quarterly basis, the Company assesses each security for
credit impairment. For debt securities, the Company
evaluates, where necessary,
whether credit impairment exists by comparing the present value
of the expected cash flows to
the securities’
amortized cost basis.
In determining whether a loss is temporary,
the Company considers all relevant information including:
●
the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been
less than the amortized cost basis;
●
adverse conditions specifically related to the security,
an industry, or a geographic
area (for example, changes in
the financial condition of the issuer of the security,
or in the case of an asset-backed debt security,
in the financial
condition of the underlying loan obligors, including changes in technology
or the discontinuance of a segment of
the business that may affect the future earnings potential of
the issuer or underlying loan obligors of the security or
changes in the quality of the credit enhancement);
●
the historical and implied volatility of the fair value of the security;
●
the payment structure of the debt security and the likelihood of the issuer
being able to make payments that
increase in the future;
●
failure of the issuer of the security to make scheduled interest
or principal payments;
●
any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency; and
●
recoveries or additional declines in fair value subsequent to the
balance sheet date.

Agency obligations
The unrealized losses associated with agency obligations were
primarily driven by declines in interest rates and not due to
the credit quality of the securities. These securities were issued
by U.S. government agencies or government-sponsored
entities and did not have any credit losses given the explicit government
guarantee or other government support.
Agency mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”)
The unrealized losses associated with agency MBS were primarily
driven by changes in interest rates and not due to the
credit quality of the securities. These securities were issued by U.S.
government agencies or government-sponsored entities
and did not have any credit losses given the explicit government guarantee
or other government support.
Securities of U.S. states and political subdivisions
The unrealized losses associated with securities of U.S. states and
political subdivisions were primarily driven by declines
in interest rates and were not due to the credit quality of the securities.
Some of these securities are guaranteed by a bond
insurer, but management did not rely on the
guarantee in making its investment decision.
These securities will continue to
be monitored as part of the Company’s
quarterly impairment analysis, but are expected to
perform even if the rating
agencies reduce the credit rating of the bond insurers. As a result, the
Company
expects to recover the entire amortized cost
basis of these securities.
The carrying values of the Company’s
investment securities could decline in the future if the financial
condition of an
issuer deteriorates and the Company determines it is probable
that it will not recover the entire amortized cost basis for the
security. As a result, there is
a risk that other-than-temporary impairment charges
may occur in the future.
Other-Than-Temporarily
Impaired Securities
Credit-impaired debt securities are debt securities where the Company
has written down the amortized cost basis of a
security for other-than-temporary impairment and the credit
component of the loss is recognized in earnings. At June 30,
2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had no credit-impaired
debt securities and there were no additions or
reductions in the credit loss component of credit-impaired debt
securities during the quarters ended June 30, 2021 and 2020,
respectively.

Loans secured by real estate were approximately
79.1%
of the Company’s total loan portfolio
at June 30, 2021.
At June 30,
2021,
the Company’s geographic loan distribution
was concentrated primarily in Lee County,
Alabama, and surrounding
areas.
In accordance with ASC 310, a portfolio segment is defined as the level
at which an entity develops and documents a
systematic method for determining its allowance for loan losses.
As part of the Company’s quarterly
assessment of the
allowance, the loan portfolio is disaggregated into the following portfolio
segments: commercial and industrial,
construction and land development, commercial real estate, residential
real estate, and consumer installment. Where
appropriate, the Company’s loan
portfolio segments are further disaggregated into classes.
A class is generally determined
based on the initial measurement attribute, risk characteristics of the
loan, and an entity’s method
for monitoring and
determining credit risk.
The following describes the risk characteristics relevant to each
of the portfolio segments and classes.
Commercial and industrial (“C&I”) —
includes loans to finance business operations, equipment purchases,
or other needs
for small and medium-sized commercial customers. Also
included in this category are loans to finance agricultural
production.
Generally, the primary source
of repayment is the cash flow from business operations and activities
of the
borrower.
We participated
as a lender in the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”),
which ended May 31, 2021.
PPP loans
are forgivable in whole or in part, if the proceeds
are used for payroll and other permitted purposes in accordance
with the
requirements of the PPP.
The Company had
288
and
265
PPP loans with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of
$
22.1
million and $
19.0
million, included in this category,
as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
Construction and land development (“C&D”) —
includes both loans and credit lines for the purpose of purchasing,
carrying, and developing land into commercial developments or
residential subdivisions. Also included are loans and credit
lines for construction of residential, multi-family,
and commercial buildings. Generally,
the primary source of repayment is
dependent upon the sale or refinance of the real estate collateral.
Commercial real estate
(“CRE”) —
includes loans disaggregated into four classes: (1) owner occupied,
(2) hotel/motel,
(3) multifamily and (4)
other.
●
Owner occupied
– includes loans secured by business facilities to finance business operations,
equipment and
owner-occupied facilities primarily for small and
medium-sized commercial customers.
Generally, the primary
source of repayment is the cash flow from business operations and
activities of the borrower, who owns the
property.
Table of Contents
13
●
Hotel/motel
– includes loans for hotels and motels.
Generally, the primary source
of repayment is dependent upon
income generated from the real estate collateral.
The underwriting of these loans takes into consideration the
occupancy and rental rates, as well as the financial health of the borrower.
●
Multi-family
– primarily includes loans to finance income-producing multi-family
properties.
Loans in this class
include loans for 5 or more unit residential property and apartments
leased to residents. Generally,
the primary
source of repayment is dependent upon income generated from the real
estate collateral. The underwriting of these
loans takes into consideration the occupancy and rental rates
,
as well as the financial health of the borrower.
●
Other
– primarily includes loans to finance income-producing commercial
properties that are not owner occupied.
Loans in this class include loans for neighborhood retail centers,
medical and professional offices, single retail
stores, industrial buildings, and warehouses leased to local businesses. Generally,
the primary source of repayment
is dependent upon income generated from the real estate collateral.
The underwriting of these loans takes into
consideration the occupancy and rental rates, as well as the financial
health of the borrower.
Residential real estate (“RRE”) —
includes loans disaggregated into two classes: (1) consumer mortgage
and (2)
investment property.
●
Consumer mortgage
– primarily includes first or second lien mortgages and home equity
lines of credit to
consumers that are secured by a primary residence or second home. These
loans are underwritten in accordance
with the Bank’s general loan poli
cies and procedures which require, among other things, proper
documentation of
each borrower’s financial condition, satisfactory credit
history, and property
value.
●
Investment property
– primarily includes loans to finance income-producing 1-4 family residential
properties.
Generally, the primary source
of repayment is dependent upon income generated from leasing the
property
securing the loan. The underwriting of these loans takes into consideration
the rental rates and property value, as
well as the financial health of the borrower.
Consumer installment —
includes loans to individuals both secured by personal property
and unsecured.
Loans include
personal lines of credit, automobile loans, and other retail loans.
These loans are underwritten in accordance with the
Bank’s general loan policies and
procedures which require, among other things, proper
documentation of each borrower’s
financial condition, satisfactory credit history,
and, if applicable, property value.

Allowance for Loan Losses
The Company assesses the adequacy of its allowance for loan
losses prior to the end of each calendar quarter.
The level of
the allowance is based upon management’s
evaluation of the loan portfolio, past loan loss experience,
current asset quality
trends, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations
that may affect a borrower’s ability to
repay (including
the timing of future payment), the estimated value of any underlying
collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, economic
conditions, industry and peer bank loan loss rates, and other pertinent
factors, including regulatory recommendations. This
evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates including
the amounts and timing of future cash flows
expected to be received on impaired loans that may be susceptible
to significant change. Loans are charged off, in whole
or
in part, when management believes that the full collectability of the
loan is unlikely. A loan
may be partially charged-off
after a “confirming event” has occurred, which serves to validate
that full repayment pursuant to the terms of the loan is
unlikely.
Table of Contents
15
The Company deems loans impaired when, based on current information
and events, it is probable that the Company will
be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual
terms of the loan agreement. Collection of all amounts due
according to the contractual terms means that both the interest
and principal payments of a loan will be collected as
scheduled in the loan agreement.
An impairment allowance is recognized if the fair value of the
loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan. The
impairment is recognized through the allowance. Loans that are
impaired are recorded at the present value of expected
future cash flows discounted at the loan’s
effective interest rate, or if the loan is collateral dependent,
the impairment
measurement is based on the fair value of the collateral, less estimated
disposal costs.
The level of allowance maintained is believed by management to
be adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the
portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance is increased
by provisions charged to expense and decreased by charge-
offs, net of recoveries of amounts previously charged
-off.
In assessing the adequacy of the allowance, the Company also
considers the results of its ongoing internal and independent
loan review processes. The Company’s
loan review process assists in determining whether there are
loans in the portfolio
whose credit quality has weakened over time and evaluating the risk characteristics
of the entire loan portfolio. The
Company’s loan review process includes
the judgment of management, the input from our independent
loan reviewers, and
reviews conducted by bank regulatory agencies as part of their
examination process. The Company incorporates loan
review results in the determination of whether or not it is probable
that it will be able to collect all amounts due according
to the contractual terms of a loan.
As part of the Company’s quarterly assessment
of the allowance, management divides the loan portfolio
into five segments:
commercial and industrial, construction and land development, commercial
real estate, residential real estate, and consumer
installment. The Company analyzes each segment and estimates
an allowance allocation for each loan segment.
The allocation of the allowance for loan losses begins with a
process of estimating the probable losses inherent for each
loan segment. The estimates for these loans are established by category
and based on the Company’s internal
system of
credit risk ratings and historical loss data.
The estimated loan loss allocation rate for the Company’s
internal system of
credit risk grades is based on its experience with similarly graded
loans. For loan segments where the Company believes it
does not have sufficient historical loss data, the Company
may make adjustments based, in part, on loss rates of peer
bank
groups.
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and for the periods
then ended, the Company adjusted its historical loss
rates for the commercial real estate portfolio segment based,
in part, on loss rates of peer bank groups.
The estimated loan loss allocation for all five loan portfolio segments
is then adjusted for management’s
estimate of
probable losses for several “qualitative and environmental” factors.
The allocation for qualitative and environmental factors
is particularly subjective and does not lend itself to exact mathematical
calculation. This amount represents estimated
probable inherent credit losses which exist, but have not yet been
identified, as of the balance sheet date, and are based
upon quarterly trend assessments in delinquent and nonaccrual
loans, credit concentration changes, prevailing economic
conditions, changes in lending personnel experience, changes
in lending policies or procedures, and other factors. These
qualitative and environmental factors are considered for each
of the five loan segments and the allowance allocation, as
determined by the processes noted above, is increased or
decreased based on the incremental assessment of these factors.
The Company regularly re-evaluates its practices in determining the
allowance for loan losses. Since the fourth quarter of
2016, the Company has increased its look-back period each quarter
to incorporate the effects of at least one economic
downturn in its loss history. The
Company believes the extension of its look-back period
is appropriate due to the risks
inherent in the loan portfolio. Absent this extension, the early
cycle periods in which the Company experienced significant
losses would be excluded from the determination of the allowance for
loan losses and its balance would decrease.
For the
quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company increased its look-back
period to 49 quarters to continue to include losses
incurred by the Company beginning with the first quarter of 2009.
The Company will likely continue to increase its look-
back period to incorporate the effects of at least one
economic downturn in its loss history.
During 2020, the Company
adjusted certain qualitative and economic factors related to changes in
economic conditions driven by the impact of the
novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19 pandemic”) and resulting adverse
economic conditions, including higher
unemployment in our primary market area.
During the second quarter of 2021, the Company adjusted
certain qualitative
and economic factors to reflect improvements in economic conditions
in our primary market area.

Credit Quality Indicators
The credit quality of the loan portfolio is summarized no less frequently
than quarterly using categories similar to the
standard asset classification system used by the federal banking agencies.
The following table presents credit quality
indicators for the loan portfolio segments and classes. These
categories are utilized to develop the associated allowance for
loan losses using historical losses adjusted for qualitative and
environmental factors and are defined as follows:
●
Pass – loans which are well protected by the current net worth
and paying capacity of the obligor (or guarantors, if
any) or by the fair value, less cost to acquire and sell, of any underlying
collateral.
●
Special Mention – loans with potential weakness that may,
if not reversed or corrected, weaken the credit or
inadequately protect the Company’s
position at some future date. These loans are not adversely classified
and do
not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant an
adverse classification.
●
Substandard Accruing – loans that exhibit a well-defined weakness which
presently jeopardizes debt repayment,
even though they are currently performing. These loans are characterized
by the distinct possibility that the
Company may incur a loss in the future if these weaknesses are
not corrected.
●
Nonaccrual – includes loans where management has determined
that full payment of principal and interest is not
expected.

Troubled Debt
Restructurings
Impaired loans also include troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”).
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and
Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was signed into law.
Section 4013 of the CARES Act, “Temporary
Relief From
Troubled Debt Restructurings,” provides
banks the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under ASC
340-10’s
TDR classifications for a limited period of time to account for
the effects of COVID-19. On April 7, 2020, the Federal
Reserve and the other banking regulators issued a statement, “Interagency
Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting
for Financial Institutions Working
With Customers Affected
by the Coronavirus (Revised)” (the “Interagency Statement on
COVID-19 Loan Modifications”), to encourage banks to work prudently
with borrowers and to describe the agencies’
interpretation of how accounting rules under ASC 310
-40, “Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors,”
apply to certain
COVID-19-related modifications. The Interagency Statement
on COVID-19 Loan Modifications was supplemented on
June 23, 2020 by the Interagency Examiner Guidance for Assessing
Safety and Soundness Considering the Effect of the
COVID-19 Pandemic on Institutions.
If a loan modification is eligible, a bank may elect to account for
the loan under
section 4013 of the CARES Act. If a loan modification is not
eligible under section 4013, or if the bank elects not to
account for the loan modification under section 4013, the Revised Statement
includes criteria when a bank may presume a
loan modification is not a TDR in accordance with ASC 310
-40.
Table of Contents
21
The Company evaluates loan extensions or modifications not
qualified under Section 4013 of the CARES Act or under the
Interagency Statement on COVID-19 Loan Modifications in accordance
with FASB ASC 340
-10 with respect to the
classification of the loan as a TDR.
In the normal course of business, management may grant concessions
to borrowers that
are experiencing financial difficulty.
A concession may include, but is not limited to, delays in required
payments of
principal and interest for a specified period, reduction of the stated
interest rate of the loan, reduction of accrued interest,
extension of the maturity date, or reduction of the face amount or
maturity amount of the debt.
A concession has been
granted when, as a result of the restructuring, the Bank does not expect
to collect, when due, all amounts owed, including
interest at the original stated rate.
A concession may have also been granted if the debtor is not able
to access funds
elsewhere at a market rate for debt with similar risk characteristics
as the restructured debt.
In making the determination of
whether a loan modification is a TDR, the Company considers
the individual facts and circumstances surrounding each
modification.
As part of the credit approval process, the restructured loans are evaluated
for adequate collateral protection
in determining the appropriate accrual status at the time of restructure.
Similar to other impaired loans, TDRs are measured for impairment
based on the present value of expected payments using
the loan’s original effective
interest rate as the discount rate, or the fair value of the collateral,
less selling costs if the loan is
collateral dependent. If the recorded investment in the loan exceeds
the measure of fair value, impairment is recognized by
establishing a valuation allowance as part of the allowance for
loan losses or a charge-off to the allowance for
loan losses.
In periods subsequent to the modification, all TDRs are individually
evaluated for possible impairment.
The following is a summary of accruing and nonaccrual TDRs, which
are included in the impaired loan totals, and the
related allowance for loan losses, by portfolio segment and class as of
June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

There were no loans modified in a TDR during the quarter and
six months ended June 30, 2021.
During the quarter and six months ended ended June 30, 2021
and 2020, respectively, there
were no loans modified in a
TDR within the previous 12 months for which there was a payment default
(defined as 90 days or more past due).
NOTE 5: MORTGAGE SERVICING
RIGHTS, NET
Mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) are recognized based on
the fair value of the servicing rights on the date the
corresponding mortgage loans are sold.
An estimate of the fair value of the Company’s
MSRs is determined using
assumptions that market participants would use in estimating
future net servicing income, including estimates of
prepayment speeds, discount rates, default rates, costs to service,
escrow account earnings, contractual servicing fee
income, ancillary income, and late fees.
Subsequent to the date of transfer,
the Company has elected to measure its MSRs
under the amortization method.
Under the amortization method, MSRs are amortized in proportion
to, and over the period
of, estimated net servicing income.
The Company has recorded MSRs related to loans sold without
recourse to Fannie Mae.
The Company generally sells
conforming, fixed-rate, closed-end, residential mortgages to Fannie
Mae.
MSRs are included in other assets on the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
The Company evaluates MSRs for impairment on a quarterly basis.
Impairment is determined by stratifying MSRs into
groupings based on predominant risk characteristics, such as interest
rate and loan type.
If, by individual stratum, the
carrying amount of the MSRs exceeds fair value, a valuation
allowance is established. The valuation allowance is adjusted
as the fair value changes.
Changes in the valuation allowance are recognized
in earnings as a component of mortgage
lending income.

NOTE 6: FAIR VALUE
Fair Value
Hierarchy
“Fair value” is defined by ASC 820,
Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures
, as the price that would be received to sell
an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction occurring
in the principal market (or most advantageous
market in the absence of a principal market) for an asset or
liability at the measurement date.
GAAP establishes a fair
value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to
quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.
The fair value hierarchy is as follows:
Level 1—inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices, unadjusted,
for identical assets or liabilities in active
markets.
Level 2—inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted
prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets,
quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets
that are not active, or inputs that are observable for the
asset or liability, either directly
or indirectly.
Level 3—inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable
and reflect the Company’s own assumptions
about the
inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
Level changes in fair value measurements
Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy
are generally recognized at the end of each reporting period.
The
Company monitors the valuation techniques utilized for each
category of financial assets and liabilities to ascertain when
transfers between levels have been affected.
The nature of the Company’s financial
assets and liabilities generally is such
that transfers in and out of any level are expected to be infrequent.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, there were no
transfers between levels and no changes in valuation techniques for
the Company’s financial
assets and liabilities.
Table of Contents
24
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value
on a recurring basis
Securities available-for-sale
Fair values of securities available for sale were primarily measured
using Level 2 inputs.
For these securities, the Company
obtains pricing from third party pricing services.
These third party pricing services consider observable data
that may
include broker/dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, benchmark
yields, reported trades for similar securities, market
consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and the securities’
terms and conditions.
On a quarterly basis,
management reviews the pricing received from the third party
pricing services for reasonableness given current market
conditions.
As part of its review, management
may obtain non-binding third party broker quotes to validate the fair
value
measurements.
In addition, management will periodically submit pricing provided
by the third party pricing services to
another independent valuation firm on a sample basis.
This independent valuation firm will compare the price provided
by
the third party pricing service with its own price and will review the
significant assumptions and valuation methodologies
used with management.
The following table presents the balances of the assets and liabilities
measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June
30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively,

sheets by ASC 820

on a nonrecurring basis
Loans held for sale
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value.
Fair values of loans held for sale are determined using
quoted market secondary market prices for similar loans.
Loans held for sale are classified within Level 2 of the fair value
hierarchy.
Impaired Loans
Loans considered impaired under ASC 310-10-35,
Receivables
, are loans for which, based on current information and
events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect
all principal and interest payments due in accordance with
the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans can
be measured based on the present value of expected
payments using the loan’s original
effective rate as the discount rate, the loan’s
observable market price, or the fair value of
the collateral less selling costs if the loan is collateral dependent.
Table of Contents
25
The fair value of impaired loans was primarily measured based
on the value of the collateral securing these loans. Impaired
loans are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets including
equipment, inventory, and/or
accounts receivable. The Company determines the value of the
collateral based on
independent appraisals performed by qualified licensed appraisers.
These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach
or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income
approach. Appraised values are discounted for
costs to sell and may be discounted further based on management’s
historical knowledge, changes in market conditions
from the date of the most recent appraisal, and/or management’s
expertise and knowledge of the customer and the
customer’s business. Such discounts by management are subjective
and are typically significant unobservable inputs for
determining fair value. Impaired loans are reviewed and evaluated
on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment
and adjusted accordingly, based
on the same factors discussed above.
Mortgage servicing rights, net
MSRs, net, included in other assets on the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets, are carried at the lower of cost or
estimated fair value.
MSRs do not trade in an active market with readily observable
prices.
To determine the fair value
of
MSRs, the Company engages an independent third party.
The independent third party’s
valuation model calculates the
present value of estimated future net servicing income using
assumptions that market participants would use in estimating
future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment
speeds, discount rates, default rates, cost to service, escrow
account earnings, contractual servicing fee income, ancillary income,
and late fees.
Periodically, the Compa
ny will review
broker surveys and other market research to validate significant
assumptions used in the model.
The significant
unobservable inputs include prepayment speeds or the constant prepayment
rate (“CPR”) and the weighted average
discount rate.
Because the valuation of MSRs requires the use of significant unobservable
inputs, all of the Company’s
MSRs are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.
The following table presents the balances of the assets and liabilities
measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of
June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively,

Fair Value
of Financial Instruments
ASC 825,
Financial Instruments
, requires disclosure of fair value information about financial
instruments, whether or not
recognized on the face of the balance sheet, for which it is practicable
to estimate that value. The assumptions used in the
estimation of the fair value of the Company’s
financial instruments are explained below.
Where quoted market prices are
not available, fair values are based on estimates using discounted
cash flow analyses. Discounted cash flows can be
significantly affected by the assumptions used,
including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. The
following fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison
to independent markets and should not be considered
representative of the liquidation value of the Company’s
financial instruments, but rather are a good-faith estimate of the
fair value of financial instruments held by the Company.
ASC 825 excludes certain financial instruments and all
nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in
estimating the fair value of its financial instruments:
Loans, net
Fair values for loans were calculated using discounted cash flows. The
discount rates reflected current rates at which similar
loans would be made for the same remaining maturities. Expected
future cash flows were projected based on contractual
cash flows, adjusted for estimated prepayments.
The fair value of loans was measured using an exit
price notion.
Loans held for
sale
Fair values of loans held for sale are determined using quoted
secondary market prices for similar loans.
Time Deposits
Fair values for time deposits were estimated using discounted
cash flows. The discount rates were based on rates currently
offered for deposits with similar remaining maturities.
The carrying value, related estimated fair value, and placement in the
fair value hierarchy of the Company’s
financial
instruments at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020
are presented below.
This table excludes financial instruments for
which the carrying amount approximates fair value.
Financial assets for which fair value approximates carrying
value
included cash and cash equivalents.
Financial liabilities for which fair value approximates carrying value
included
noninterest-bearing demand deposits,
interest-bearing demand deposits, and savings deposits.
Fair value approximates
carrying value in these financial liabilities due to these products having
no stated maturity.
Additionally, financial
liabilities for which fair value approximates carrying value included
overnight borrowings such as federal funds purchased
and securities sold under agreements to repurchase.

Financial Summary
The Company’s net earnings were $4.3
million for the first six months of 2021, compared to $3.5
million for the first six
months of 2020.
Basic and diluted earnings per share were $1.21 per
share for the first six months of 2021, compared to
$0.97 per share for the first six months of 2020.
Total revenue declined
approximately 5% due to reduced net interest margin,
reduced mortgage lending income and
approximately 1% lower outstanding loans compared to
June 30, 2020.
Net interest income (tax-equivalent) was $12.2 million for the
first six months of 2021, a 3% decrease compared to $12.5
million for the first six months of 2020.
This decrease was primarily due to net interest margin
compression resulting from
the Federal Reserve’s interest rate
reductions and bond purchases in response to COVID-19.
Our securities holdings,
which generally yield less than loans, increased as a percentage
of our total assets reflecting deployment of increased
deposits. Net interest margin (tax-equivalent) decreased
to 2.63% in the first six months of 2021, compared to
3.09% for
the first six months of 2020,
primarily due to the lower interest rate environment and changes in
our asset mix resulting
from the significant increase in deposits from government stimulus
and relief programs and customers’ increased savings.
Net interest income (tax-equivalent) included $0.5 million in PPP
loan fees, net of related costs for the six months of 2021,
compared to $0.2 million for the six months of 2020.
At June 30, 2021, the Company’s allowance
for loan losses was $5.1 million, or 1.12%
of total loans, compared to $5.6
million, or 1.22%
of total loans, at December 31, 2020, and $5.3 million, or 1.1
4% of total loans, at June 30, 2020.
Excluding PPP loans, which are guaranteed by the SBA, the Company’s
allowance for loan losses was 1.17%
of total loans
at June 30, 2021.
The Company had a negative provision for loan losses of $0.6
million during the first six months of
2021,
compared to a provision for loan losses of $0.9
million during the first six months of 2020.
The negative provision
for loan losses was primarily related to improvements in economic conditions
in our primary market area,
and related
improvements in our asset quality.
The provision for loan losses is based upon various estimates and
judgements, including
the absolute level of loans, loan growth, credit quality and the
amount of net charge-offs.
Noninterest income was $2.3 million for the first six months
of 2021 compared to $2.6 million for the first six months of
2020.
The decrease was primarily due to a $0.3 million non-taxable
death benefit from bank-owned life insurance received
in 2020.
Noninterest expense was $9.6 million for the first six months
of 2021 compared to $9.8 million for the first six months of
2020.
The decrease was primarily due to a reduction of $0.7 million in various
expenses related to the redevelopment of
the Company’s headquarters in downtown
Auburn.
This decrease was mostly offset by increases in salaries
and benefits
expense of $0.3 million and other noninterest expense of $0.2
million during the first six months of 2021.
Income tax expense was $0.9 million for the first six months
of 2021 compared to $0.8 million during the first six months
of 2020,
reflecting an increase in earnings before tax and effective
tax rate of 17.76% and 17.86%, respectively.
Table of Contents
31
The Company paid cash dividends of $0.52 per share in the first six months
of 2021, an increase of 2% from the same
period of 2020.
Our $0.8 million of share repurchases since June 30, 2020
resulted in 20,511 fewer outstanding common
shares at June 30, 2021.
At June 30, 2021, the Bank’s regulatory capital
ratios were well above the minimum amounts
required to be “well capitalized” under current regulatory standa
rds with a total risk-based capital ratio of 17.94%, a tier
1
leverage ratio of 9.81%
and a common equity
tier 1 (“CET1”) ratio of 17.03%
at June 30, 2021.
For the second quarter of 2021, net earnings were $2.3
million, or $0.65 per share, compared to $1.7 million, or $0.47
per
share, for the second quarter of 2020.
Net interest income (tax-equivalent) was $6.1 million for the second quarter
of 2021,
a 2% decrease compared to $6.2 million for the second quarter
of 2020.
This decrease was primarily due to net interest
margin compression resulting from the Federal Reserve’s
interest rate reductions and bond purchases in response
to
COVID-19.
Our securities holdings, which generally yield less than loans, increased
as a percentage of our total assets
reflecting deployment of increased deposits.
The Company’s net interest margin
(tax-equivalent) decreased to 2.60% in the
second quarter of 2021, compared to 2.95% for the second
quarter of 2020 primarily due to the lower rate environment and
changes in our asset mix resulting from the significant increase in deposits
from government stimulus and relief programs
and customers’ increased savings. Net interest income (tax-equivalent)
included $0.2 million in PPP loan fees, net of
related costs for both the second quarter of 2021 and
2020.
The Company recorded a negative provision for loan losses of
$0.6 million during the second quarter of 2021 compared
to $0.5 million in provision for loan losses during the second
quarter 2020.
The negative provision for loan losses was primarily related to
improvements in economic conditions in our
primary market areas, and related improvements in our asset quality.
Noninterest income was $1.1 million in the second
quarter of 2021, compared to $1.4 million in the second quarter
of 2020.
The decrease in noninterest income was primarily
due to a decrease in mortgage lending income of $0.3 million
as refinance activity slowed in our primary market area.
Noninterest expense was $4.9 million in the second quarter of
2021 compared to $5.0 million during the second quarter of
2020.
Income tax expense was $0.5
million for the second quarter of 2021 compared to $0.4 million during second
quarter
of 2020 reflecting an increase in earnings before taxes.
The Company's effective tax rate for the second
quarter of 2021
was 18.06%, compared to 17.93% in the second quarter of 2020.
COVID-19 Impact Assessment
In December 2019, COVID-19 was first reported in China and
has since spread to a number of other countries, including
the United States. In March 2020, the World
Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global
pandemic and the United
States declared a National Public Health Emergency.
The COVID-19 pandemic has severely restricted the level
of
economic activity in our markets. In response to the COVID-19
pandemic, the State of Alabama, and most other states,
have taken preventative or protective actions to prevent the spread
of the virus, including imposing restrictions on travel
and business operations and a statewide mask mandate,
advising or requiring individuals to limit or forego their time
outside of their homes, limitations on gathering of people and
social distancing, and causing temporary closures of
businesses that have been deemed to be non-essential.
Though certain of these measures have been relaxed or
eliminated,
increases in reported cases could cause these measures to be
reestablished.
Auburn University, a major
source of economic
activity in Lee County, went to
remote instruction on March 16, 2020.
Auburn University announced its guidelines for the
remainder of the 2021 school year, which involves
resumption of full on-site operations as well as other measures.
COVID-19 has significantly affected local state, national
and global health and economic activity and its future effects
are
uncertain and will depend on various factors, including, among others,
the duration and scope of the pandemic, the
development and distribution of COVID-19 testing and contact
tracing, effective drug treatments and vaccines, together
with governmental, regulatory and private sector responses.
COVID-19 has had continuing significant effects on the
economy, financial markets and
our employees, customers and vendors. Our business, financial condition
and results of
operations generally rely upon the ability of our borrowers to
make deposits and repay their loans, the value of collateral
underlying our secured loans, market value, stability and liquidity and
demand for loans and other products and services we
offer, all of which are affected
by the pandemic.
See “Balance Sheet Analysis – Loans” for supplemental COVID
-19
disclosures.
We have implemented
a number of procedures in response to the pandemic to support
the safety and well-being of our
employees, customers and shareholders.
Table of Contents
32
• We
believe our business continuity plan has worked to provide
essential banking services to our communities and
customers, while protecting our employees’ health.
As part of our efforts to exercise social distancing in accordance
with
the guidelines of the Centers for Disease Control and the Governor
of the State of Alabama, starting March 23, 2020, we
limited branch lobby service to appointment only while continuing to
operate our branch drive-thru facilities and ATMs.
As permitted by state public health guidelines, on June 1, 2020,
we re-opened some of our branch lobbies.
During 2021,
we opened our remaining branch lobbies. We
continue to provide services through our online and other electronic channels.
In addition, we established remote work access to help employees
stay at home where job duties permit.
• We
are focused on servicing the financial needs of our commercial and consumer
clients with extensions and
deferrals to loan customers effected by COVID-19,
provided such customers were not more than 30 days past
due at the
time of the request; and
• We
were a participating lender in the PPP.
PPP loans are forgivable, in whole or in part, if the proceeds
are used
for payroll and other permitted purposes in accordance with
the requirements of the PPP.
These loans carry a fixed rate of
1.00% and a term of two years (loans made before June 5, 2020)
or five years (loans made on or after June 5, 2020), if not
forgiven, in whole or in part.
Payments are deferred until either the date on which the Small
Business Administration
(“SBA”) remits the amount of forgiveness proceeds
to the lender or the date that is 10 months after the last day of the
covered period if the borrower does not apply for forgiveness
within that 10-month period.
We believe these loans
and our
participation in the program is good for our customers and the
communities we serve.

On December 27, 2020, the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small
Businesses, Nonprofits, and Venues
Act (the “Economic Aid
Act”) was signed into law.
The Economic Aid Act provides a second $900
billion stimulus package, including $325 billion
in additional PPP loans.
The Economic Aid Act also permits the collection of a higher amount of PPP
loan fees by
participating banks.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting and financial reporting policies of the Company conform
with U.S. GAAP and with general practices
within the banking industry.
In connection with the application of those principles, we have
made judgments and estimates
which, in the case of the determination of our allowance for loan
losses, our assessment of other-than-temporary
impairment, recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements and
the valuation of OREO and deferred tax assets, were
critical to the determination of our financial position and results of
operations. Other policies also require subjective
judgment and assumptions and may accordingly impact our financial
position and results of operations.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The Company assesses the adequacy of its allowance for loan
losses prior to the end of each calendar quarter.
Determining
the amount of the allowance for loan losses is considered
a critical accounting estimate because the level of the allowance
is
based upon management’s evaluation
of the loan portfolio, past loan loss experience, current
asset quality trends, known
and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may
affect a borrower’s ability to repay (including
the timing of
future payment), the estimated value of any underlying collateral,
composition of the loan portfolio, economic conditions,
industry and peer bank loan loss rates, and other pertinent factors,
including regulatory recommendations. This evaluation
is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates including the
amounts and timing of future cash flows expected to
be received on impaired loans that may be susceptible to significant
change. Loans are charged off, in whole or
in part,
when management believes that the full collectability of the loan
is unlikely. A loan may be
partially charged-off
after a
“confirming event” has occurred, which serves to validate that
full repayment pursuant to the terms of the loan is unlikely.
The Company deems loans impaired when, based on current information
and events, it is probable that the Company will
be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual
terms of the loan agreement. Collection of all amounts due
according to the contractual terms means that both the interest
and principal payments of a loan will be collected as
scheduled in the loan agreement.
An impairment allowance is recognized if the fair value of the
loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan. The
impairment is recognized through the allowance. Loans that are
impaired are recorded at the present value of expected
future cash flows discounted at the loan’s
effective interest rate, or if the loan is collateral dependen
t, the impairment
measurement is based on the fair value of the collateral, less estimated
disposal costs.
The level of allowance maintained is believed by management to
be adequate
to absorb probable losses inherent in the
portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance is increased
by provisions charged to expense and decreased by charge-
offs, net of recoveries of amounts previously charged
-off.
In assessing the adequacy of the allowance, the Company also
considers the results of its ongoing internal and independent
loan review processes. The Company’s
loan review process assists in determining whether there are
loans in the portfolio
whose credit quality has weakened over time and evaluating the risk characteristics
of the entire loan portfolio. The
Company’s loan review process includes
the judgment of management, the input from our independent
loan reviewers, and
reviews that may have been conducted by bank regulatory agencies
as part of their examination process. The Company
incorporates loan review results in the determination of whether
or not it is probable that it will be able to collect all
amounts due according to the contractual terms of a loan.
As part of the Company’s quarterly assessment
of the allowance, management divides the loan portfolio
into five segments:
commercial and industrial, construction and land development, commercial
real estate, residential real estate, and consumer
installment. The Company analyzes each segment and estimates
an allowance allocation for each loan segment.
Table of Contents
34
The allocation of the allowance for loan losses begins with a
process of estimating the probable losses inherent for each
loan segment. The estimates for these loans are established by category
and based on the Company’s internal
system of
credit risk ratings and historical loss data.
The estimated loan loss allocation rate for the Company’s
internal system of
credit risk grades is based on its experience with similarly graded
loans. For loan segments where the Company believes it
does not have sufficient historical loss data, the Company
may make adjustments based, in part, on loss rates of peer
bank
groups.
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and for the periods
then ended, the Company adjusted its historical loss
rates for the commercial real estate portfolio segment based,
in part, on loss rates of peer bank groups.
The estimated loan loss allocation for all five loan portfolio segments
is then adjusted for management’s
estimate of
probable losses for several “qualitative and environmental” factors.
The allocation for qualitative and environmental fact
ors
is particularly subjective and does not lend itself to exact mathematical
calculation. This amount represents estimated
probable inherent credit losses which exist, but have not yet been
identified, as of the balance sheet date, and are based
upon quarterly trend assessments in delinquent and nonaccrual
loans, credit concentration changes, prevailing economic
conditions, changes in lending personnel experience, changes
in lending policies or procedures, and other influencing
factors. These qualitative and environmental factors are considered
for each of the five loan segments and the allowance
allocation, as determined by the processes noted above, is increased
or decreased based on the incremental assessment of
these factors.
The Company regularly re-evaluates its practices in determining the
allowance for loan losses. Since the fourth quarter of
2016, the Company has increased
its look-back period each quarter to incorporate the effects
of at least one economic
downturn in its loss history. The
Company believes the extension of its look-back period
is appropriate due to the risks
inherent in the loan portfolio. Absent this extension, the early
cycle periods in which the Company experienced significant
losses would be excluded from the determination of the allowance for
loan losses and its balance would decrease.
For the
quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company increased its look-back
period to 49 quarters to continue to include losses
incurred by the Company beginning with the first quarter of 2009.
The Company will likely continue to increase its look-
back period to incorporate the effects of at least one
economic downturn in its loss history.
During 2020, the Company
adjusted certain qualitative and economic factors related to changes in
economic conditions driven by the impact of the
novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19 pandemic”) and resulting adverse
economic conditions, including higher
unemployment in our primary market area.
During the second quarter of 2021,
the Company adjusted certain qualitative
and economic factors to reflect improvements in economic conditions
in our primary market area.
Further adjustments may
be made in the future as a result of the continuing COVID-19
pandemic.
Assessment for Other-Than-Temporary
Impairment of Securities
On a quarterly basis, management makes an assessment to determine
whether there have been events or economic
circumstances to indicate that a security on which there is an
unrealized loss is other-than-temporarily impaired.
For debt securities with an unrealized loss, an other-than
-temporary impairment write-down is triggered when (1)
the
Company has the intent to sell a debt security,
(2) it is more likely than not that the Company will be required
to sell the
debt security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, or
(3) the Company does not expect to recover the entire amortized
cost basis of the debt security.
If the Company has the intent to sell a debt security or if it is more
likely than not that it will
be required to sell the debt security before recovery,
the other-than-temporary write-down is equal to the entire
difference
between the debt security’s amortized
cost and its fair value.
If the Company does not intend to sell the security or it is not
more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security
before recovery, the other
-than-temporary impairment write-
down is separated into the amount that is credit related (credit loss component)
and the amount due to all other factors.
The
credit loss component is recognized in earnings and is the difference
between the security’s
amortized cost basis and the
present value of its expected future cash flows.
The remaining difference between the security’s
fair value and the present
value of future expected cash flows is due to factors that are not credit
related and is recognized in other comprehensive
income, net of applicable taxes.
The Company is required to own certain stock as a condition of
membership, such as Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”)
and Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”).
These non-marketable equity securities are accounted for at
cost which equals par or
redemption value.
These securities do not have a readily determinable fair value as their
ownership is restricted and there is
no market for these securities.
The Company records these non-marketable equity securities
as a component of other
assets, which are periodically evaluated for impairment. Management
considers these non-marketable equity securities to
be long-term investments. Accordingly,
when evaluating these securities for impairment, management considers
the
ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary
declines in value.

Fair Value
Determination
U.S. GAAP requires management to value and disclose certain of the
Company’s assets and liabilities
at fair value,
including investments classified as available-for-sale
and derivatives. ASC 820,
Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures
,
which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair
value in accordance with U.S. GAAP and expands
disclosures about fair value measurements.
For more information regarding fair value measurements and disclosures,
please refer to Note 6, Fair Value,
of the consolidated financial statements that accompany this report.
Fair values are based on active market prices of identical assets or
liabilities when available.
Comparable assets or
liabilities or a composite of comparable assets in active markets are
used when identical assets or liabilities do not have
readily available active market pricing.
However, some of the Company’s
assets or liabilities lack an available or
comparable trading market characterized by frequent transactions between
willing buyers and sellers. In these cases, fair
value is estimated using pricing models that use discounted cash
flows and other pricing techniques. Pricing models and
their underlying assumptions are based upon management’s
best estimates for appropriate discount rates, default rates,
prepayments, market volatility,
and other factors, taking into account current observable market data
and experience.
These assumptions may have a significant effect on the reported
fair values of assets and liabilities and the related income
and expense. As such, the use of different models and
assumptions, as well as changes in market conditions, could
result in
materially different net earnings and retained earnings
results.
Other Real Estate Owned
OREO consists of properties obtained through foreclosure or in satisfaction
of loans and is reported at the lower of cost or
fair value of collateral, less estimated costs to sell at the date acquired,
with any loss recognized as a charge-off through the
allowance for loan losses. Additional OREO losses for subsequent
valuation adjustments are determined on a specific
property basis and are included as a component of other noninterest
expense along with holding costs. Any gains or losses
on disposal of OREO are also reflected in noninterest expense.
Significant judgments and complex estimates are required in
estimating the fair value of OREO, and the period of time within which
such estimates can be considered current is
significantly shortened during periods of market volatility.
As a result, the net proceeds realized from sales transactions
could differ significantly from appraisals, comparable
sales, and other estimates used to determine the fair value of other
OREO.
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 the Company had no OREO properties.
Deferred Tax
Asset Valuation
A valuation allowance is recognized for a deferred tax asset if, based
on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-
than-not that some portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be
realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets
is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during
the periods in which those temporary differences
become
deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred
tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and
tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level
of taxable income over the last three years and
projections for future taxable income over the periods in which
the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes
it is more likely than not that we will realize the benefits of these
deductible differences at June 30, 2021.
The amount of
the deferred tax assets considered realizable, however,
could be reduced if estimates of future taxable income are reduced.

Net Interest Income and Margin
Net interest income (tax-equivalent) was $12.2 million for the
first six months of 2021 compared to $12.5 million for the
first six months of 2020.
This decrease was due to a decline in the Company’s
net interest margin (tax-equivalent).
The tax-equivalent yield on total interest-earning assets decreased
by 67 basis points to 2.91% in the first six months of
2021 compared to 3.58% in the first six months of 2020.
This decrease was primarily due to the lower interest rate
environment and changes in our asset mix resulting from the
significant increase in deposits from government stimulus and
relief programs and customers’ increased savings.
The cost of total interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 33 basis
points to 0.42% in the first six months of 2021 compared
to 0.75% in the first six months of 2020.
The net decrease in our funding costs was primarily due to lower prevail
ing
market interest rates.
Our funding costs declined less than the rates earned on our interest
earning assets.
The Company continues to deploy various asset liability management
strategies to manage its risk to interest rate
fluctuations. The Company’s net
interest margin could continue to experience pressure due
to reduced earning asset yields
and increased competition for quality loan opportunities.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses represents a charge to earnings
necessary to provide an allowance for loan losses that
management believes, based on its processes and estimates,
should be adequate to provide for the probable losses on
outstanding loans.
The Company recorded a negative provision for loan losses of $0.6
million for the first six months of
2021, compared to $0.9 million in provision for loan losses for
the first six months of 2020.
The negative provision for
loan losses was primarily related to improvements in economic conditions
in our primary market area.
The provision for
loan losses is based upon various factors, including the absolute level
of loans, loan growth, the credit quality,
and the
amount of net charge-offs or recoveries.
Table of Contents
37
Based upon its assessment of the loan portfolio, management
adjusts the allowance for loan losses to an amount it believes
should be appropriate to adequately cover its estimate of probable
losses in the loan portfolio. The Company’s
allowance
for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.12%
at June 30, 2021, compared to 1.22% at December 31, 2020.
At
June 30, 2021,
the Company’s allowance for loan losses
was 1.17% of total loans, excluding PPP loans, which are
guaranteed by the SBA.
While the policies and procedures used to estimate the allowance
for loan losses, as well as the
resulting provision for loan losses charged to operations,
are considered adequate by management and are reviewed from
time to time by our regulators, they are based on estimates and
judgments and are therefore approximate and imprecise.
Factors beyond our control (such as conditions in the local and
national economy, local
real estate markets, or industries)
may have a material adverse effect on our asset quality and
the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses resulting in
significant increases in the provision for loan losses.

The Company’s income from mortgage
lending was primarily attributable to the (1) origination and sale of new
mortgage
loans and (2) servicing of mortgage loans. Origination income, net, is
comprised of gains or losses from the sale of the
mortgage loans originated, origination fees, underwriting fees,
and other fees associated with the origination of loans,
which are netted against the commission expense associated with these
originations. The Company’s normal
practice is to
originate mortgage loans for sale in the secondary market and
to either sell or retain the associated MSRs when the loan is
sold.
MSRs are recognized based on the fair value of the servicing
right on the date the corresponding mortgage loan is sold.
Subsequent to the date of transfer, the Company
has elected to measure its MSRs under the amortization method.
Servicing
fee income is reported net of any related amortization expense.
The Company evaluates MSRs for impairment on a quarterly basis.
Impairment is determined by grouping MSRs by
common predominant characteristics, such as interest rate and loan
type.
If the aggregate carrying amount of a particular
group of MSRs exceeds the group’s aggregate
fair value, a valuation allowance for that group is established.
The valuation
allowance is adjusted as the fair value changes.
An increase in mortgage interest rates typically results in an increase in
the
fair value of the MSRs while a decrease in mortgage interest rates
typically results in a decrease in the fair value of MSRs.
The following table presents a breakdown of the Company’s
mortgage lending income.

The Company’s income from mortgage
lending typically fluctuates as mortgage interest rates change and
is primarily
attributable to the origination and sale of new mortgage loans.
Origination income decreased in the second quarter of 2021
compared to the second quarter of 2020 due to a decrease in refinance
activity in our primary market area.
Mortgage loan
origination volume also declined for the first six months of 2021
compared to the first six months of 2020, but origination
income increased due to improved pricing margins.

Income from bank-owned life insurance decreased primarily due to
$0.3 million in non-taxable death benefits received in
2020.
The assets that support these policies are administered by the life
insurance carriers and the income we receive (i.e.,
increases or decreases in the cash surrender value of the policies
and death benefits received) on these policies is dependent
upon the returns the insurance carriers are able to earn on the
underlying investments that support these policies. Earnings
on these policies are generally not taxable.

The increase in salaries and benefits was primarily due to a decrease

routine annual wage and benefit increases, and management increasing
the minimum hourly wage for banking positions to
$15.
The decrease in net occupancy and equipment expense was primarily
due to a reduction of various expenses related to the
redevelopment of the Company’s headquarters
in downtown Auburn.
This amount includes revised depreciation estimates
and other temporary relocation costs.
Income Tax
Expense
Income tax expense was $0.9
million for the first six months of 2021 compared to $0.8

S
Securities
Securities available-for-sale were $3
84.9 million at June 30, 2021 compared to $335.2 million at December
31, 2020.
This
increase reflects an increase in the amortized cost basis of securities
available-for-sale of $54.2 million, and a decrease
of
$4.5 million in the fair value of securities available-for
-sale.
The increase in the amortized cost basis of securities
available-for-sale was primarily attributable to management
allocating more funding to the investment portfolio following
the significant increase in customer deposits.
The decrease in the fair value of securities was primarily due
to an increase in
long-term interest rates.
The average annualized tax-equivalent yields earned on total
securities were 1.72%

Excluding PPP loans, total loans net of unearned income, were $4
35.7 million, a decrease of $6.5
million, or 1% from $442.3 million at December 31, 2020
.
Four loan categories represented the majority of the loan
portfolio at June 30, 2021: commercial real estate (53%), residential real
estate (18%), commercial and industrial (19%) and
construction and land development (8%).
Approximately 21%
of the Company’s commercial
real estate loans were
classified as owner-occupied at June 30, 2021.
Within the residential real estate portfolio
segment, the Company had junior lien mortgages of approximately $8.1
million,
or 2% of total loans, at June 30, 2021, compared to $8.7 million,
or 2% of total loans, at December 31, 2020.
For
residential real estate mortgage loans with a consumer purpose,
the Company had no loans that required interest-only
payments at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The
Company’s residential real estate
mortgage portfolio does not
include any option ARM loans, subprime loans, or any material
amount of other high-risk consumer mortgage products.
The average yield earned on loans and loans held for sale was 4.47
%
in the first six months of 2021 and 4.75% in the first
six months of 2020.
The specific economic and credit risks associated with our loan po
rtfolio include, but are not limited to, the effects of
current economic conditions, including the COVID-19 pandemic’s
effects, on our borrowers’ cash flows, real
estate market
sales volumes, valuations, availability and cost of financing properties,
real estate industry concentrations, competitive
pressures from a wide range of other lenders, deterioration in certain
credits, interest rate fluctuations, reduced collateral
values or non-existent collateral, title defects, inaccurate appraisals,
financial deterioration of borrowers, fraud, and any
violation of applicable laws and regulations.
The Company attempts to reduce these economic and credit
risks through its loan-to-value guidelines for collateralized
loans, investigating the creditworthiness of borrowers and monitoring borrowers’
financial position. Also, we have
established and periodically review,
lending policies and procedures. Banking regulations limit a
bank’s credit exposure
by
prohibiting unsecured loan relationships that exceed 10% of its
capital; or 20% of capital, if loans in excess of 10% of
capital are fully secured. Under these regulations, we are prohibited
from having secured loan relationships in excess of
approximately $20.7 million.
Furthermore, we have an internal limit for aggregate credit
exposure (loans outstanding plus
unfunded commitments) to a single borrower of $18.6
million. Our loan policy requires that the Loan Committee of the
Board of Directors approve any loan relationships that exceed
this internal limit.
At June 30, 2021, the Bank had no
relationships exceeding these limits.
We periodically
analyze our commercial and industrial and commercial real estate
loan portfolios to determine if a
concentration of credit risk exists in any one or more industries.
We use classification
systems broadly accepted by the
financial services industry in order to categorize our
commercial borrowers. Loan concentrations to borrowers in the
following classes exceeded 25% of the Bank’s
total risk-based capital at June 30, 2021 (and related
balances at December
31, 2020).

COVID-19 Modifications
In light of disruptions in economic conditions caused by COVID
-19, the financial regulators have issued guidance
encouraging banks to work constructively with borrowers affected
by the virus in our community.
This guidance, including
the Interagency Statement on COVID-19 Loan Modifications and
the Interagency Examiner Guidance for Assessing Safety
and Soundness Considering the Effect of the COVID
-19 Pandemic on Institutions, provides that the agencies will not
criticize financial institutions that mitigate credit risk through
prudent actions consistent with safe and sound practices.
Specifically, examiners will
not criticize institutions for working with borrowers as part
of a risk mitigation strategy
intended to improve existing loans, even if the restructured
loans have or develop weaknesses that ultimately result in
adverse credit classification.
Upon demonstrating the need for payment relief, the bank will work
with qualified borrowers
that were otherwise current before the pandemic to determine
the most appropriate deferral option.
For residential
mortgage and consumer loans the borrower may elect to defer
payments for up to three months.
Interest continues to
accrue and the amount due at maturity increases.
Commercial real estate, commercial, and small business borrowers may
elect to defer payments for up to three months or pay scheduled
interest payments for a six-month period.
The bank
recognizes that a combination of the payment relief options may be
prudent dependent on a borrower’s business type.
As
of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we have granted loan
payment deferrals or payments of interest-only primarily
on commercial and industrial and commercial real estate loans totaling
$32.3 million, or 7% of total loans, compared to
$112.7 million, or 24% of total loans at
June 30, 2020, the end of the first quarterly period we began loan
modifications to
assist customers through the COVID-19 pandemic.
Based on discussions with our borrowers, we expect
these to further
decline over the second half of 2021.
The tables below provide information concerning the composition
of these COVID-19 modifications as of June 30, 2021
and December 31, 2020.

Section 4013 of the CARES Act provides that a qualified loan modification
is exempt by law from classification as a TDR
pursuant to GAAP.
In addition, the Interagency Statement on COVID-19 Loan Modifications
provides circumstances in
which a loan modification is not subject to classification as a TDR
if such loan is not eligible for modification under
Section 4013.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The Company maintains the allowance for loan losses at a level
that management believes appropriate to adequately cover
the Company’s estimate of probable
losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses was $5.
1
million at
June 30, 2021 compared to $5.6 million at December 31,
2020, which management believed to be adequate at each of the
respective dates. The judgments and estimates associated with the determination
of the allowance for loan losses are
described under “Critical Accounting Policies.”
A summary of the changes in the allowance for loan losses and certain
asset quality ratios for the second quarter of 2021
and the previous four quarters is presented below.

As described under “Critical Accounting Policies,” management assesses
the adequacy of the allowance prior to the end of
each calendar quarter. The
level of the allowance is based upon management’s
evaluation of the loan portfolios, past loan
loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio,
adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s
ability to repay
(including the timing of future payment), the estimated value
of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan
portfolio, economic conditions, industry and peer bank loan loss
rates, and other pertinent factors. This evaluation is
inherently subjective as it requires various material estimates
and judgments, including the amounts and timing of future
cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans that may
be susceptible to significant change. The ratio of our
allowance for loan losses to total loans outstanding was 1.12
%
at June 30, 2021, compared to 1.22% at December 31,
2020.
At June 30, 2021, the Company’s allowance
for loan losses was 1.17% of total loans, excluding PPP
loans. In the future,
the allowance to total loans outstanding ratio will increase or
decrease to the extent the factors that influence our quarterly
allowance assessment, including the duration and magnitude of COVID
-19 effects, in their entirety either improve or
weaken.
In addition, our regulators, as an integral part of their examination
process, will periodically review the
Company’s allowance for loan
losses, and may require the Company to make additional provisions
to the allowance for
loan losses based on their judgment about information available
to them at the time of their examinations.
Nonperforming Assets
The Company had $0.6
million and $0.5
million in nonperforming assets at June 30, 2021 and December 31,

The Company discontinues the accrual of interest income when (1)
there is a significant deterioration in the financial
condition of the borrower and full repayment of principal and
interest is not expected or (2) the principal or interest is
90 days or more past due, unless the loan is both well-secured
and in the process of collection.
At June 30, 2021, the
Company had $0.6
million in loans on nonaccrual status compared to $0.5 million at December 31,
2020.
The Company had no loans 90 days or more past due and still
accruing at June 30, 2021 compared to $0.1 million at
December 31, 2020.
The Company had no OREO at June 30, 2021 or December 31,
2020.
Potential Problem Loans
Potential problem loans represent those loans with a well-defined
weakness and where information about possible credit
problems of a borrower has caused management to have serious doubts
about the borrower’s ability to comply with present
repayment terms.
This definition is believed to be substantially consistent with the
standards established by the Federal
Reserve, the Company’s pri
mary regulator, for loans classified as
substandard, excluding nonaccrual loans.
Potential
problem loans, which are not included in nonperforming assets,
amounted to $2.8 million, or 0.6% of total loans at June 30,
2021, and $2.9 million, or 0.6% of total loans at December 31,
2020.

Deposits
Total deposits increased
$83.7 million, or 10% to $923.5 million at June 30, 2021,
compared to $839.8 million at December
31, 2020.
Noninterest-bearing deposits were $283.4 million, or 31% of total
deposits, at June 30, 2021, compared to
$245.4 million, or 29%
of total deposits at December 31, 2020.
These increases reflect deposits from customers who
received PPP loans, the impact of government stimulus checks, delayed
tax payments
and less customer spending during
the COVID-19 pandemic.
The average rate paid on total interest-bearing deposits was 0.42
%
in the first six months of 2021 compared to 0.75% in the
first six months of 2020.
The decline in average rates paid on total interest-bearing deposits
was largely driven by generally
lower market interest rates.
Other Borrowings
Other borrowings consist of short-term borrowings and long-term
debt. Short-term borrowings generally consist of federal
funds purchased and agreements with certain customers to sell certain
securities under agreements to repurchase with an
original maturity less than one year.
The Bank had available federal funds lines totaling $41.0
million with none
outstanding at June 30, 2021, and at December 31, 2020,
respectively. Securities sold
under agreements to repurchase
totaled $3.5 million at June 30, 2021, compared to $2.4
million at December 31, 2020.
The average rate paid on short-term borrowings was 0.50% in the first six
months of 2021 compared to 0.75% in the first
six months of 2020.
The Company had no long-term debt at June 30, 2021 and
December 31, 2020.

CAPITAL ADEQUACY
The Company’s consolidated stockholders’
equity was $106.0 million and $107.7 million as of June 30,
2021 and
December 31, 2020, respectively.
The decrease from December 31, 2020 was primarily driven by an
other comprehensive
loss due to the change in unrealized gains (losses) on securities
available-for-sale, net of tax of $3.3 million, cash dividends
paid of $1.8 million, and repurchases of the Company’s
stock of $0.8 million.
During the first six months of 2021, the
Company repurchased 20,511 shares under the
Company’s current stock repurchase program.
These shares were
repurchased at an average cost per share of $36.56 and
a total cost of $0.8 million.
These decreases in the Company’s
consolidated stockholders’ equity were partially offset
by net earnings of $4.3 million.
On January 1, 2015, the Company and Bank became subject
to the rules of the Basel III regulatory capital framework and
related Dodd-Frank Wall
Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act changes.
The rules included the implementation of a
capital conservation buffer that is added to
the minimum requirements for capital adequacy purposes.
The capital
conservation buffer was subject to a three year phase
-in period that began on January 1, 2016 and was fully phased
-in on
January 1, 2019 at 2.5%.
A banking organization with a conservation buffer
of less than the required amount will be
subject to limitations on capital distributions, including dividend
payments and certain discretionary bonus payments to
executive officers.
At June 30, 2021,
the Bank’s ratio was sufficient to
meet the fully phased-in conservation buffer.
Effective March 20, 2020, the Federal Reserve and
the other federal banking regulators adopted an interim final rule that
amended the capital conservation buffer.
The interim final rule was adopted as a final rule on August
26, 2020.
The new
rule revises the definition of “eligible retained income” for purposes
of the maximum payout ratio to allow banking
organizations to more freely use their capital buffers
to promote lending and other financial intermediation activities,
by
making the limitations on capital distributions more gradual.
The eligible retained income is now the greater of (i) net
income for the four preceding quarters, net of distributions and
associated tax effects not reflected in net income; and
(ii)
the average of all net income over the preceding four quarters.
The interim final rule only affects the capital buffers,
and
banking organizations were encouraged to make prudent
capital distribution decisions.
The Federal Reserve has treated us as a “small bank holding company’
under the Federal Reserve’s policy.
Accordingly,
our capital adequacy is evaluated at the Bank level, and not for
the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries.
The Bank’s
tier 1 leverage ratio was 9.81%, CET1 risk-based capital ratio
was 17.03%, tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 17.03%, and
total risk-based capital ratio was 17.94%
at June 30, 2021. These ratios exceed the minimum regulatory capital percentages
of 5.0% for tier 1 leverage ratio, 6.5% for CET1 risk-based capital
ratio, 8.0% for tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, and 10.0%
for total risk-based capital ratio to be considered “well capitalized.”
The Bank’s capital conservation
buffer was 9.94%
at
June 30, 2021.
MARKET AND LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT
Management’s objective is to manage
assets and liabilities to provide a satisfactory,
consistent level of profitability within
the framework of established liquidity,
loan, investment, borrowing, and capital policies. The
Bank’s Asset Liability
Management Committee (“ALCO”) is charged with
the responsibility of monitoring these policies, which are designed
to
ensure an acceptable asset/liability composition. Two
critical areas of focus for ALCO are interest rate risk and liquidity
risk management.
Interest Rate Risk Management
In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to
market risk arising
from fluctuations in interest rates. ALCO
measures and evaluates interest rate risk so that the Bank can meet customer
demands for various types of loans and
deposits. Measurements used to help manage interest rate sensitivity include
an earnings simulation model and an economic
value of equity (“EVE”) model.
Table of Contents
45
Earnings simulation
. Management believes that interest rate risk is best estimated by our
earnings simulation modeling.
Forecasted levels of earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities,
and off-balance sheet financial instruments are combined
with ALCO forecasts of market interest rates for the next
12 months and other factors in order to produce
various earnings
simulations and estimates. To
help limit interest rate risk, we have guidelines for earnings at
risk which seek to limit the
variance of net interest income from gradual changes in interest rates.
For changes up or down in rates from management’s
flat interest rate forecast over the next 12 months, policy limits
for net interest income variances are as follows:
●
+/- 20% for a gradual change of 400 basis points
●
+/- 15% for a gradual change of 300 basis points
●
+/- 10% for a gradual change of 200 basis points
●
+/- 5% for a gradual change of 100 basis points
At June 30, 2021, our earnings simulation model indicated that
we were in compliance with the policy guidelines noted
above.
Economic Value
of Equity
. EVE measures the extent that the estimated economic values of our
assets, liabilities, and off-
balance sheet items will change as a result of interest rate changes.
Economic values are estimated by discounting expected
cash flows from assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet items,
which establishes a base case EVE. In contrast with our
earnings simulation model, which evaluates interest rate risk over a
12 month timeframe, EVE uses a terminal horizon
which allows for the re-pricing of all assets, liabilities, and off
-balance sheet items. Further, EVE
is measured using values
as of a point in time and does not reflect any actions that ALCO
might take in responding to or anticipating changes in
interest rates, or market and competitive conditions.
To help limit interest rate
risk, we have stated policy guidelines for an
instantaneous basis point change in interest rates, such that our EVE
should not decrease from our base case by more than
the following:
●
45% for an instantaneous change of +/-
400 basis points
●
35% for an instantaneous change of +/-
300 basis points
●
25% for an instantaneous change of +/-
200 basis points
●
15% for an instantaneous change of +/-
100 basis points
At June 30, 2021, our EVE model indicated that we were in compliance
with the policy guidelines noted above.
Each of the above analyses may not, on its own, be an accurate
indicator of how our net interest income will be affected
by
changes in interest rates. Income associated with interest-earning assets
and costs associated with interest-bearing liabilities
may not be affected uniformly by changes in interest rates.
In addition, the magnitude and duration of changes in interest
rates may have a significant impact on net interest income. For
example, although certain assets and liabilities may have
similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react in different
degrees to changes in market interest rates, and other
economic and market factors, including market perceptions. Interest
rates on certain types of assets and liabilities fluctuate
in advance of changes in general market rates, while interest
rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag behind
changes in general market rates. In addition, certain assets, such as
adjustable rate mortgage loans, have features (generally
referred to as “interest rate caps and floors”) which limit changes
in interest rates. Prepayment and early withdrawal levels
also could deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the maturity
of certain instruments. The ability of many
borrowers to service their debts also may decrease during periods
of rising interest rates or economic stress, which may
differ across industries and economic sectors. ALCO reviews
each of the above interest rate sensitivity analyses along with
several different interest rate scenarios in seeking satisfactory,
consistent levels of profitability within the framework of the
Company’s established liquidity,
loan, investment, borrowing, and capital policies.
The Company may also use derivative financial instruments
to improve the balance between interest-sensitive assets and
interest-sensitive liabilities, and as a tool to manage interest rate
sensitivity while continuing to meet the credit and deposit
needs of our customers. From time to time, the Company may
enter into interest rate swaps to facilitate customer
transactions and meet their financing needs. These interest rate
swaps qualify as derivatives, but are not designated as
hedging instruments. At June 30, 2021 and December 31,
2020, the Company had no derivative contracts designated as part
of a hedging relationship to assist in managing its interest rate
sensitivity.

Liquidity Risk Management
Liquidity is the Company’s ability
to convert assets into cash equivalents in order
to meet daily cash flow requirements,
primarily for deposit withdrawals, loan demand and maturing obligations.
Without proper management of its liquidity,
the
Company could experience higher costs of obtaining funds due to
insufficient liquidity, while
excessive liquidity can lead
to a decline in earnings due to the cost of foregoing alternative
higher-yielding investment opportunities.
Liquidity is managed at two levels. The first is the liquidity of
the Company. The second
is the liquidity of the Bank. The
management of liquidity at both levels is essential, because the Company
and the Bank are separate and distinct legal
entities with different funding needs and sources, and each
are subject to regulatory guidelines and requirements.
The
Company depends upon dividends from the Bank for liquidity to
pay its operating expenses, debt obligations and
dividends.
The Bank’s payment of dividends
depends on its earnings, liquidity,
capital and the absence of any regulatory
restrictions.
The primary source of funding and liquidity for the Company has
been dividends received from the Bank.
If needed, the
Company could also issue common stock or other securities.
Primary uses of funds by the Company include dividends paid
to stockholders, Company stock repurchases,
and Company expenses.
Primary sources of funding for the Bank include customer deposits,
other borrowings, repayment and maturity of securities,
sales of securities, and the sale and repayment of loans. The
Bank has access to federal funds lines from various banks and
borrowings from the Federal Reserve discount window.
In addition to these sources, the Bank may participate in the
FHLB’s advance program to obtain
funding for its growth. Advances include
both fixed and variable terms and may be
taken out with varying maturities. At June 30, 2021, the Bank had
a remaining available line of credit with the FHLB of
$297.9 million. At June 30, 2021, the Bank also had $41.0
million of available federal funds lines with no borrowings
outstanding. Primary uses of funds include repayment of maturing obligations
and growing the loan portfolio.
Management believes that the Company and the Bank have adequate
sources of liquidity to meet all their respective known
contractual obligations and unfunded commitments, including
loan commitments and reasonable borrower,
depositor, and
creditor requirements over the next twelve months.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Commitments, Contingencies
and Contractual Obligations
At June 30, 2021, the Bank had outstanding standby letters of credit
of $1.4
million and unfunded loan commitments
outstanding of $69.4 million.
Because these commitments generally have fixed expiration dates
and many will expire
without being drawn upon, the total commitment level does not
necessarily represent future cash requirements. If needed
to
fund these outstanding commitments, the Bank could liquidate
federal funds sold or a portion of securities available-for-
sale, or draw on its available credit facilities.
Mortgage lending activities
We primarily sell residential
mortgage loans in the secondary market to Fannie Mae while
retaining the servicing of these
loans. The sale agreements for these residential mortgage loans with
Fannie Mae and other investors include various
representations and warranties regarding the origination and
characteristics of the residential mortgage loans.
Although the
representations and warranties vary among investors, they typically
cover ownership of the loan, validity of the lien
securing the loan, the absence of delinquent taxes or liens against the
property securing the loan, compliance with loan
criteria set forth in the applicable agreement, compliance with
applicable federal, state, and local laws, among other
matters.
As of June 30, 2021,
the unpaid principal balance of residential mortgage loans, which we have originated
and sold, but
retained the servicing rights was $260.8 million.
Although these loans are generally sold on a non-recourse basis, we
may
be obligated to repurchase residential mortgage loans or reimburse
investors for losses incurred (make whole requests) if a
loan review reveals a potential breach of seller representations and
warranties.
Upon receipt of a repurchase or make whole
request, we work with investors to arrive at a mutually agreeable
resolution. Repurchase and make whole requests are
typically reviewed on an individual loan by loan basis to validate
the claims made by the investor and to determine if a
contractually required repurchase or make whole event has occurred.
We seek to reduce
and manage the risks of potential
repurchases, make whole requests, or other claims by mortgage
loan investors through our underwriting and quality
assurance practices and by servicing mortgage loans to meet investor
and secondary market standards.
Table of Contents
47
The Company was not required to repurchase any loans during the first
six months of 2021 as a result of representation and
warranty provisions contained in the Company’s
sale agreements with Fannie Mae, and had no pending repurchase
or
make-whole requests at June 30, 2021.
We service all residential
mortgage loans originated and sold by us to Fannie Mae.
As servicer, our primary duties are to:
(1) collect payments due from borrowers;
(2) advance certain delinquent payments of principal and interest;
(3) maintain
and administer any hazard, title, or primary mortgage insurance policies
relating to the mortgage loans;
(4) maintain any
required escrow accounts for payment of taxes and insurance
and administer escrow payments;
and (5) foreclose on
defaulted mortgage loans or take other actions to mitigate the
potential losses to investors consistent with the agreements
governing our rights and duties as servicer.
The agreement under which we act as servicer generally specifies
a standard of responsibility for actions taken by us in
such capacity and provides protection against expenses and liabilities incurred
by us when acting in compliance with the
respective servicing agreements.
However, if we commit a material breach
of our obligations as servicer,
we may be
subject to termination if the breach is not cured within a specified
period following notice.
The standards governing
servicing and the possible remedies for violations of such standards
are determined by servicing guides issued by Fannie
Mae as well as the contract provisions established between Fannie Mae
and the Bank.
Remedies could include repurchase
of an affected loan.
Although repurchase and make whole requests related to representation
and warranty provisions and servicing activities
have been limited to date, it is possible that requests to repurchase mortgage
loans or reimburse investors for losses incurred
(make whole requests) may increase in frequency if investors more
aggressively pursue all means of recovering losses on
their purchased loans.
As of June 30, 2021,
we do not believe that this exposure is material due to the historical level of
repurchase requests and loss trends, in addition to the fact that
99%
of our residential mortgage loans serviced for Fannie
Mae were current as of such date.
We maintain ongoing
communications with our investors and will continue to evaluate
this exposure by monitoring the level and number of repurchase
requests as well as the delinquency rates in our investor
portfolios.
Section 4021 of the CARES Act allows borrowers under 1-4 family
residential mortgage loans sold to Fannie Mae to
request forbearance to the servicer after affirming that
such borrower is experiencing financial hardships during the
COVID-19 emergency.
Such forbearance will be up to 180 days, subject to
up to a 180 day extension.
During forbearance,
no fees, penalties or interest shall be charged beyond
those applicable if all contractual payments were fully and timely
paid.
Except for vacant or abandoned properties, Fannie Mae servicers may not
initiate foreclosures on similar procedures
or related evictions or sales until December 31,
2020.
The Bank sells mortgage loans to Fannie Mae and services these on
an actual/actual basis. As a result, the Bank is not obligated to
make any advances to Fannie Mae on principal and interest
on such mortgage loans where the borrower is entitled to forbearance.
Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices
The consolidated financial statements and related consolidated
financial data presented herein have been prepared in
accordance with U.S. GAAP and practices within the banking industry
which require the measurement of financial position
and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering
the changes in the relative purchasing power of
money over time due to inflation. Unlike most industrial companies,
virtually all the assets and liabilities of a financial
institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant
impact on a financial institution’s
performance than the effects of general levels of inflation.
CURRENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS
The following ASUs have been issued by the FASB
but are not yet effective.
●
ASU 2016-13,
Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic
326):
Measurement of Credit Losses on
Financial
Instruments;
Table of Contents

Information about these pronouncements is described in more
detail below.
ASU 2016-13,
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic
326): - Measurement of Credit
Losses on Financial
Instruments
, amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at
amortized cost basis and available for sale debt
securities.
For assets held at amortized cost basis, the new standard eliminates the
probable initial recognition threshold in
current GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate
of all expected credit losses using a broader
range of information regarding past events, current conditions and
forecasts assessing the collectability of cash flows. The
allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted
from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets to
present the net amount expected to be collected.
For available for sale debt securities, credit losses should be measured in
a
manner similar to current GAAP,
however the new standard will require that credit losses be
presented as an allowance
rather than as a write-down.
The new guidance affects entities holding financial assets
and net investment in leases that are
not accounted for at fair value through net income. The amendments
affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net
investments in leases, off-balance sheet credit exposures,
reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not
excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive
cash.
For public business entities, the new guidance was
originally effective for annual and interim periods
in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019.
The Company has
developed an implementation team that is following a gener
al timeline.
The team has been working with an advisory
consultant, with whom a third-party software license has been purchased.
The Company’s preliminary evaluation
indicates
the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13 are expected to impact the Company’s
consolidated financial statements, in particular
the level of the reserve for credit losses.
The Company is continuing to evaluate the extent of the potential
impact and
expects that portfolio composition and economic conditions at
the time of adoption will be a factor.
On October 16, 2019,
the FASB approved
a previously issued proposal granting smaller reporting companies a postponement
of the required
implementation date for ASU 2016-13.
The Company will now be required to implement the new standard
in January
2023, with early adoption permitted in any period prior
to that date.

Table 1
– Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to results presented in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this quarterly
report on Form 10-Q includes certain designated net interest income
amounts presented on a tax-equivalent basis, a non-
GAAP financial measure, including the presentation and calculation of
the efficiency ratio.
The Company believes the presentation of net interest income
on a tax-equivalent basis provides comparability of net
interest income from both taxable and tax-exempt sources and
facilitates comparability within the industry.
Although the
Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures enhance
investors’ understanding of its business and performance,
these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered
an alternative to GAAP.
The reconciliations
of these non-
GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable
GAAP financial measures are presented below.
