Accounting Standards Update and Change in Accounting Principle [Abstract]  
New Accounting Pronouncements

Note 2: New Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and, to a lesser extent, other authoritative rulemaking bodies promulgate generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to regulate the standards of accounting in the United States. From time to time, the FASB issues new GAAP standards, known as Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) some of which, upon adoption, may have the potential to change the way in which the Company recognizes or reports within its consolidated financial statements. The following table provides a description of the accounting standards that are not currently effective, but could have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13: Financial Instruments—Credit Losses [Topic 326]: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments)

 

The amended guidance replaced the previously-required (through December 31, 2022) incurred loss model for determining the allowance for credit losses with the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model. The new guidance requires financial assets measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses now represents a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets to present their net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected. The income statement will now reflect the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets as well as expected increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the reporting period. When determining the allowance, expected credit losses over the contractual term of the financial asset(s) (taking into account prepayments) will be estimated considering relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. The amended guidance also requires recording an allowance for credit losses for purchased financial assets with a more-than-insignificant amount of credit deterioration since origination. The initial allowance for these assets will be added to the purchase price at acquisition rather than being reported as an expense. Subsequent changes in the allowance will be recorded through the income statement as an expense adjustment. In addition, the amended guidance requires credit losses relating to financial assets, such as debt securities categorized as held-to-maturity and noncancelable unfunded commitments to be recorded through the allowance for credit losses.

 

January 1, 2023

The Company adopted the new guidance on January 1, 2023. On that date, the Company recorded one-time CECL transition adjustments, thereby increasing the Company's allowance for credit losses on loans by $1.9 million, decreasing the recorded book value of held-to-maturity securities by $450,000 and increasing other liabilities by $552,000 for credit losses associated with unfunded contractual commitments on financial assets. As a component of these transition adjustments, the Company's deferred tax asset balance (a component of other assets on the Statement of Financial Conditions) increased by $754,000. These entries resulted in a one-time reduction in the Company's retained earnings (a component of Shareholders' Equity) of $2.1 million on the adoption date. In accordance with the new guidance these one-time transitional adjustments were not recorded as a component of the provision for credit losses in the first quarter of 2023 and, therefore, had no effect on reported net income in that quarterly reporting period.

Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging - Portfolio Layer Method (ASU 2022-01)

 

The amendments allow multiple hedged layers to be designated for a single closed portfolio of financial assets or one or more beneficial interests secured by a portfolio of financial instruments. If multiple hedged layers are designated, the amendments require an analysis to be performed to support the expectation that the aggregate amount of the hedged layers is anticipated to be outstanding for the designated hedge periods. Only closed portfolios may be hedged under the portfolio layer method (that is, no assets can be added to the closed portfolio once established), however, designating new hedging relationships and dedesignating existing hedging relationships associated with the closed portfolio any time after the closed portfolio is established is permitted.

 

January 1, 2023

At January 1, 2023 the Company did not have any designated hedging relationships under the portfolio layer method and, therefore, the adoption had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Reference Rate Reform (ASU 2020-04: Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting [Topic 848]: Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848)

 

The amendments provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform. The amendments apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The amendments (1) apply to contract modifications that replace a reference rate affected by reference rate reform, (2) provide exceptions to existing guidance related to changes to the critical terms of a hedging relationship due to reference rate reform (3) provide optional expedients for fair value hedging relationships, cash flow hedging relationships, and net investment hedging relationships, and (4) provide a onetime election to sell, transfer, or both sell and transfer debt securities classified as held-to-maturity that reference a rate affected by reference rate reform and that are classified as held-to-maturity before January 1, 2020. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope. ASU 2021-01 clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in ASC 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. ASU 2021-01 also amends the expedients and exceptions in ASC 848 to capture the incremental consequences of the scope clarification and to tailor the existing guidance to derivative instruments affected by the discounting transition.

 

Upon issuance, January 7, 2021, through December 31, 2024, as amended by ASU 2022-06.

The amendments for contract modifications can be elected to be applied as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or prospectively from a date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020. The amendments for existing hedging relationships can be elected to be applied as of the beginning of the interim period that includes March 12, 2020 and to new eligible hedging relationships entered into after the beginning of the interim period that includes March 12, 2020. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact to the Company's consolidated statements of condition or income.
