Summary of Signficant Accounting Policies  
Nature of Business Policy
General
Auburn National Bancorporation, Inc. (the “Company”) provides a full range
 
of banking services to individuals
 
and
commercial customers in Lee County,
 
Alabama and surrounding areas 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 Policy
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, 2024.
Consolidation Policy
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.
Use of Estimates Policy
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 the determination of allowance for credit losses on loans and
 
investment securities, fair value of financial
instruments, and the valuation of deferred tax assets and other real estate owned
 
(“OREO”).
Revenue Recognition Policy
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s sources of
 
income that fall within the scope of ASC 606 include service charges on
 
deposits, ATM
 
and
interchange fees and gains and losses on sales of OREO, 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
(i) transaction-based, for which the performance obligations are satisfied when the
 
individual transaction is
processed, or (ii) 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 ratio, where the seller provides the purchaser
 
with financing, the analysis
is based on various other factors, including the credit quality of the
 
purchaser, the structure of the loan, and any
other factors that we believe may affect collectability.
Subsequent Events Policy
 
 
 
 
Subsequent Events
 
The Company has evaluated the effects of events and
 
transactions through the date of this filing that have occurred
subsequent to March 31, 2025.
 
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.
