EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding, adjusted for the effect of potentially dilutive stock awards outstanding during the period. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, the Company has excluded all unearned shares held by the ESOP.

Table of Contents

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluations. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

At September 30, 2018, the Company has 110 securities with unrealized losses. The losses for all securities are considered to be a direct result of the effect that the prevailing interest rate environment had on the value of debt securities and are not related to the credit worthiness of the issuers. Furthermore, the Company has the intent and ability to retain its investments in the issuers for a period of time that management believes to be sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. Therefore, the Company did not recognize any other-than-temporary impairments during the nine month period ended September 30, 2018.

At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, securities with a book value of approximately $94.7 million and $119.8 million and a market value of approximately $93.7 million and $118.0 million, respectively, were pledged to various municipalities for deposits in excess of FDIC limits as required by law. At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, securities with a market value of $42.0 million and $38.4 million, respectively, were sold to customers as part of overnight repurchase agreements.

The Company uses the following loan segments as described below:

 

   

One-to-four family first mortgages are closed-end loans secured by residential housing. Loans may be either owner or non-owner occupied properties. If the loan is owner-occupied, the loan is analyzed and under-written as a consumer loan. Loan terms may be up to 30 years.

 

   

Home equity lines of credit may be first or second mortgages secured by one-to-four family properties.

Junior liens are closed-end loans secured by one-to-four family residences with a fixed or variable rate. Typically, the collateral for these loans are owner occupied units with a subordinate lien. Loans secured by junior liens are under-written under the Company’s consumer loan guidelines.

 

   

Multi-family loans are closed-end loans secured by residential housing with five or more units in a single building. Multi-family loans may carry a variable rate of interest or the interest rate on the loan is a fixed rate (usually five years). After the initial fixed rate period, the loan reverts to a variable rate or has balloon maturity. Multi-family loans have amortization terms of up to twenty years and are under-written under the Company’s commercial loan underwriting guidelines.

Risk Grade Classifications

The Company utilizes a credit grading system that provides a uniform framework for establishing and monitoring credit risk in the loan portfolio. Under this system, each loan is graded based on pre-determined risk metrics and categorized into one of the risk grades discussed below. The Company uses the following risk grade definitions for commercial loans:

Excellent - Loans in this category are to persons or entities of unquestioned financial strength, a highly liquid financial position, with collateral that is liquid and well margined. These borrowers have performed without question on past obligations, and the Bank expects their performance to continue. Internally generated cash flow covers current maturities of long-term debt by a substantial margin. Loans secured by Bank certificates of deposit and savings accounts, with appropriate holds placed on the accounts, are to be rated in this category.

Very Good - These are loans to persons or entities with strong financial condition and above-average liquidity who have previously satisfactorily handled their obligations with the Bank. Collateral securing the Bank’s debt is margined in accordance with policy guidelines. Internally generated cash flow covers current maturities of long-term debt more than adequately. Unsecured loans to individuals supported by strong financial statements and on which repayment is satisfactory may be included in this classification.

Satisfactory - Assets of this grade conform to substantially all the Bank’s underwriting criteria and evidence an average level of credit risk; however, such assets display more susceptibility to economic, technological or political changes since they lack the above average financial strength of credits rated Very Good. Borrower’s repayment capacity is considered to be adequate. Credit is appropriately structured and serviced; payment history is satisfactory.

Acceptable - Assets of this grade conform to most of the Bank’s underwriting criteria and evidence an acceptable, though higher than average, level of credit risk; however, these loans have certain risk characteristics which could adversely affect the borrower’s ability to repay given material adverse trends. Loans in this category require an above average level of servicing and show more reliance on collateral and guaranties to preclude a loss to the Bank should material adverse trends develop. If the borrower is a company, its earnings, liquidity and capitalization are slightly below average when compared to its peers.

Watch - These loans are characterized by borrowers who have marginal cash flow, marginal profitability, or have experienced an unprofitable year and a declining financial condition. The borrower has in the past satisfactorily handled debts with the Bank, but in recent months has either been late, delinquent in making payments, or made sporadic payments. While the Bank continues to be adequately secured, margins have decreased or are decreasing, despite the borrower’s continued satisfactory condition. Other characteristics of borrowers in this class include inadequate credit information, weakness of financial statement and repayment capacity, but with collateral that appears to limit exposure. This classification includes loans to established borrowers that are reasonably margined by collateral, but where potential for improvement in financial capacity appears limited.

 

16


Table of Contents

Special Mention - Loans in this category have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deteriorating prospects for the asset or in the institution’s credit position at some future date. Borrowers may be experiencing adverse operating trends or market conditions. Non-financial reasons for rating a credit exposure Special Mention include, but are not limited to: management problems, pending litigations, ineffective loan agreement and/or inadequate loan documentation, structural weaknesses and/or lack of control over collateral.

Substandard - A substandard asset is inadequately protected by the current sound worth or paying capacity of the debtor or the collateral pledged. There exists one or more well defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. There is a distinct possibility the Bank will experience some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful - A loan classified as doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in a loan classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. These are poor quality loans in which neither the collateral, if any, nor the financial condition of the borrower presently ensure collectability in full in a reasonable period of time; in fact, there is permanent impairment in the collateral securing the Bank’s loan. These loans are in a work-out status and have a defined work-out strategy.

Loss - Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as Bankable assets is not warranted. The Bank takes losses in the period in which they become uncollectible.

The following credit risk standards are assigned to consumer loans:

Satisfactory - All consumer open-end and closed-end retail loans shall have an initial risk grade assigned of 3 - Satisfactory.

Substandard - All consumer open-end and closed-end retail loans past due 90 cumulative days from the contractual date will be classified as 7 - Substandard. If a consumer/retail loan customer files bankruptcy, the loan will be classified as 7 - Substandard regardless of payment history.

Loss - All closed-end retail loans that become past due 120 cumulative days and open-end retail loans that become past due 180 cumulative days from the contractual due date will be charged off as loss assets. The charge off will be taken by the end of the month in which the 120-day or 180-day time period elapses. All losses in retail credit will be recognized when the affiliate becomes aware of the loss, but in no case should the charge off exceed the time frames stated within this policy.

The determination of the allowance for loan losses is based on management’s analysis, performed on a quarterly basis. Various factors are considered, including the growth and composition of the loan portfolio, the relationship of the allowance for loan losses to outstanding loans, historical loss experience, delinquency trends and prevailing economic conditions and the market value of the underlying collateral. Although management believes its allowance for loan losses is adequate, there can be no assurance that additional allowances will not be required or that losses on loans will not be incurred.

A loan is considered to be impaired when management determines that 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. The value of individually impaired loans is measured based on the present value of expected payments or using the fair value of the collateral less cost to sell if the loan is collateral dependent. Currently, it is management’s practice to classify all substandard or doubtful loans as impaired.

In the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, the Company identified two additional loans as TDR. The new commercial loan classified as TDR is secured by equipment and inventory. The TDR classification is the result of the borrower’s declining financial condition, prompting the Company to lengthen the amortization period of the loan. The length of the current amortization period is outside of our loan policy and results in a TDR classification. The loan has a one year balloon feature and the borrower’s financial condition will be re-evaluated at that time.

The new non-residential real estate loan classified as a TDR is an owner occupied property in which the owner’s cash flow is declining. In September of 2018, the bank agreed to a six month interest only forbearance to provide financial relieve to the customer while he attempts to sell either the building or entire business.

There were no loans as of September 30, 2018 that have been modified as TDRs and that subsequently defaulted within twelve months on their modified terms. At September 30, 2018, there are no commitments to lend additional funds to any borrower whose loan terms have been modified in a TDR.

FORECLOSED ASSETS

The Company’s foreclosed assets have been acquired through customer loan defaults. The property is recorded at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated cost to sell and carrying cost at the date acquired. Any difference between the book value and estimated market value is recognized as a charge off through the allowance for loan loss account. Additional losses on foreclosed assets may be determined on individual properties at specific intervals or at the time of disposal. In general, the Company will obtain a new appraisal on all foreclosed assets with a book balance in excess of $250,000 on an annual basis. Additional losses are recognized as a non-interest expense.

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, the Company’s activity in foreclosed property included the following:

FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Accounting Standards Codification Topic (ASC) 820, Fair Value Measurements, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value. The statement establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable input and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.

 

   

Level 1 is for assets and liabilities that management has obtained quoted prices (unadjusted for transaction cost) or identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

 

   

Level 2 is for assets and liabilities in which significant unobservable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

   

Level 3 is for assets and liabilities in which significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The following are the significant methods and assumptions used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Cash and due from banks

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents approximate those assets’ fair values, because they mature within 90 days or less and do not present credit risk concerns.

Interest-bearing deposits in banks

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for interest earning deposits approximate those assets’ fair values, because they are considered overnight deposits and may be withdrawn at any time without penalty and do not present credit risk concerns.

 

26


Table of Contents

Available-for-sale securities

Fair values for investment securities available-for-sale are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments provided by a third-party pricing service. The Company reviews all securities in which the book value is greater than the market value for impairment that is other than temporary. For securities deemed to be other than temporarily impaired, the Company reduces the book value of the security to its market value by recognizing an impairment charge on its income statement.

FHLB stock

The fair value of FHLB stock is recognized at cost.

Loans held for sale

Mortgage loans originated and intended to be sold are carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value as determined on a loan by loan basis. Gains or losses are recognized at the time of ownership transfer. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized through a valuation allowance and charged to income.

Loans receivable

The fair values of fixed-rate loans and variable rate loans that re-price on an infrequent basis is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis which considers future re-pricing dates and estimated repayment dates, and further using interest rates currently being offered for loans of similar type, terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Loan fair value estimates include judgments regarding future expected loss experience and risk characteristics. The estimated fair value of variable-rate loans that re-price frequently and have no significant change in credit risk is approximately the carrying value of the loan.

Accrued interest receivable

Fair value is estimated to approximate the carrying amount because such amounts are expected to be received within 90 days or less and any credit concerns have been previously considered in the carrying value.

Deposits

The fair values disclosed for deposits with no stated maturity such as demand deposits, interest-bearing checking accounts and savings accounts are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (that is, their carrying amounts). The fair values for certificates of deposit and other fixed maturity time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on such type accounts or similar accounts to a schedule of aggregated contractual maturities or similar maturities on such time deposits.

Advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance

The carrying amount of advances from borrowers for taxes and insurance approximates its fair value.

Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB)

The fair value of these advances is estimated by discounting the future cash flows of these advances using the current rates at which similar advances or similar financial instruments could be obtained.

Repurchase agreements

Overnight repurchase agreements have a fair value at book, given that they mature overnight. The fair values of longer date repurchase agreements is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis which considers the current market pricing for repurchase agreements of similar final maturities and collateral requirements.

Subordinated debentures

The book value of subordinated debentures is cost. The subordinated debentures re-price quarterly at a rate equal to three month libor plus 3.10%.

Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis

Where quoted prices are available for identical securities in an active market, securities available for sale are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities include highly liquid government securities and certain other financial products. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models that use observable inputs or quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics and are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation and more complex pricing models or discounted cash flows are used, securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

EFFECT OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” This guidance supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the ASC. The guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016; however, the FASB deferred the effective date reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The implementation of ASC Topic 605 did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” ASU 2016-01, among other things, (i) requires equity investments, with certain exceptions, to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, (ii) simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment, (iii) eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet, (iv) requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, (v) requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments, (vi) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements and (vii) clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale. ASU 2016-01 was effective on January 1, 2018 and did not have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” ASU 2016-02 will, among other things, require lessees to recognize a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 does not significantly change lease accounting requirements applicable to lessors; however, certain changes were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” ASU 2016-02 will be effective for us on January 1, 2019, and will require transition using a modified retrospective approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

ASU 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” Under ASU 2016-09 all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies related to share-based payment awards should be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement during the period in which they occur. Previously, such amounts were recorded in the pool of excess tax benefits included in additional paid-in capital, if such pool was available. Because excess tax benefits are no longer recognized in additional paid-in capital, the assumed proceeds from applying the treasury stock method when computing earnings per share should exclude the amount of excess tax benefits that would have previously been recognized in additional paid-in capital. Additionally, excess tax benefits should be classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity rather than a financing activity, as was previously the case. ASU 2016-09 also provides that an entity can make an entity-wide accounting policy election to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest (current GAAP) or account for forfeitures when they occur. ASU 2016-09 changes the threshold to qualify for equity classification (rather than as a liability) to permit withholding up to the maximum statutory tax rates (rather than the minimum as was previously the case) in the applicable jurisdictions. ASU 2016-09 was effective on January 1, 2017. The implementation of ASU 2016-09 did not have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

On June 16, 2016, the FASB released its finalized ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”. The amendments to U.S. GAAP require businesses and other organization to measure the expected credit losses on financial assets, such as loans, securities, bond insurance, and many receivables, the FASB said. The accounting changes apply to instruments recorded on balance sheets at their historical cost, although there are some limited changes to the accounting for debt instruments classified as available-for-sale. The accounting board added that the write-downs will be based on historical information, current business conditions, and forecasts, and it expects the forecasts to improve the loss estimates on financial assets that are losing value. The board also said the techniques that are employed today to write down loans and other instruments can still be used, although it expects the variables for calculating the losses to change. ASU 2016-13 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Companies are permitted to adopt ASU 2016-13 in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2016-13.

ASU 2016-15 “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)” (“ASU 2016-15”) is intended to reduce the diversity in practice around how certain transactions are classified within the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted with retrospective application. The application of ASU 2016-15 did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01,Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business,” (“ASU 2017-01”) to improve such definition and, as a result, assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or as business combinations. The definition of a business impacts many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill and consolidation. ASU 2017-01 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2018 and is to be applied under a prospective approach. The Company expects the adoption of this new guidance to impact the determination of whether future acquisitions are considered business combinations.

ASU 2017-08, “Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Cost” (Topic 310) – amends the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium. Prior to the issuance of this guidance, premiums were amortized as an adjustment of yield over the contractual life of instrument. ASU 2017-08 premiums on purchased callable debt securities that have an explicit, non-contingent call features that are callable at fixed prices to be amortized to the earliest call date. There are no accounting changes for securities held at a discount. This ASU is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2017-08 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

ASU 2017-09 “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) – clarifies when changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment must be accounted for as modifications. Under AUS 2017-09, an entity should account for changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment unless all of the following are met:

 

   

The fair value of the modified award is the same as the fair value of the original award immediately before modification,

 

   

The vesting conditions of the modified award is the same as the vesting conditions value of the original award immediately before modification, and

 

   

The classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before modification.

ASU 2017-09 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2018 and did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2017-12 “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) amends the hedge accounting recognition and presentation requirements in ASC 815 to improve the transparency and understandability of information convey to financial statement users about an entity’s risk management activities to better align the entity’s financial reporting for hedging relationships with those risk management activities and to reduce the complexity of and simplify the application of hedge accounting. ASU 2017-12 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2019 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

ASU 2018-02,Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” Issued in February 2018, ASU 2018-02 seeks to help entities reclassify certain stranded income tax effects in accumulated other comprehensive income resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (Tax Reform Act), enacted on December 22, 2017. ASU 2018-02 was issued in response to concerns regarding current guidance in GAAP that requires deferred tax liabilities and assets to be adjusted for the effect of a change in tax laws or rates with the effect included in income from continuing operations in the reporting period that includes the enactment date, even in situations in which the related income tax effects of items in accumulated other comprehensive income were originally recognized in other comprehensive income, rather than net income, and as a result the stranded tax effects would not reflect the appropriate tax rate. The amendments of ASU 2018-02 allow an entity to make a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for the stranded tax effects, which is the difference between the historical corporate income tax rate of 35.0% and the newly enacted corporate income tax rate of 21.0%. ASU 2018-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 31, 2018; however, public business entities are allowed to early adopt the amendments of ASU 2018-02 in any interim period for which the financial statements have not yet been issued. The amendments of ASU 2018-02 may be applied either at the beginning of the period (annual or interim) of adoption or retrospectively to each of the period(s) in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate tax rate in the Tax Reform Act is recognized. The Company is currently reviewing the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-02 on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, “Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” This ASU eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Among the changes, entities will no longer be required to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, but will be required to disclose the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU No. 2018-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019; early adoption is permitted. Entities are also allowed to elect early adoption the eliminated or modified disclosure requirements and delay adoption of the new disclosure requirements until their effective date. As ASU No. 2018-13 only revises disclosure requirements, it will not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

INCOME TAXES

The Company files consolidated federal income tax returns and Tennessee excise tax returns. The Company files consolidated Kentucky income tax returns. The Bank is exempt from Kentucky corporate income tax. The Company has no unrecognized tax benefits and has accrued any interest or penalties for uncertain tax positions. The Company’s effective tax rate changed from 34% to 21% effective January 1, 2018 as a result of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act of 2017. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory federal rate of 21% and Tennessee excise rate of 6.5% due to investments in qualified municipal securities, bank owned life insurance, income apportioned to Kentucky and certain non-deductible expenses. The Company’s effective federal income tax rate varies significantly from our federal statutory tax rate for a variety of factors, including:

 

   

The Company’s investment in Fort Webb LP, LLC generates tax credits and depreciation expense that the Company can use to offset taxable income. At September 30, 2018, the Company’s balance sheet did not include any equity investment in Fort Webb. The Company has other investments that produce both tax credits and depreciation expense that may be used to offset net income.

 

   

At September 30, 2018, the Company has $10.6 million in Bank owned life insurance policies. The income generated from these policies increase the cash flow of the policies on a tax free basis. Life insurance proceeds are paid upon the death of a covered party. These proceeds, netted against the current cash value of the policy, result in tax free income to the Company.

 

   

At September 30, 2018, the Company’s investment portfolio includes $24.0 million of tax free municipal securities. Interest income on this portfolio, after netting out a disallowance for interest expense attributable to this portfolio, is tax exempt.

ESOP

Substantially all of the Company’s employees who are at least 21 years old and have one year of employment with the Company participate in the 2015 HopFed Bancorp, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”). The ESOP purchased 600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock from the Company on March 2, 2015 at $13.14 per share. The ESOP borrowed $7.9 million from an open-end line of credit from the Company for the purchase of the stock, using the 600,000 shares of common stock as collateral. The Company makes discretionary contributions to the ESOP. The ESOP utilizes these contributions along with the dividends on the 600,000 held by the ESOP to repay the loan from the Company. When loan payments are made, ESOP shares are released based on reductions in the principal balance of the loan. The shares are allocated to participants based on relative compensation.

Employees who are not employed on December 31st of each year are not eligible for participation in the ESOP. Exceptions to this rule occur when the employee retires a normal retirement age, dies or becomes permanently disabled.

At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, shares held by the ESOP were as follows:

The Company is a party to certain ordinary course litigation, and the Company intends to vigorously defend itself in all such matters. In the opinion of the Company, based on review and consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such ordinary course litigation should not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

REGULATORY MATTERS

The new minimum capital level requirements applicable to Bank holding companies and Banks subject to the rules are: (i) a new common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5%; (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6% (increased from 4%); (iii) a total risk-based capital ratio of 8% (unchanged from current rules); (iv) a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4% for all institutions. The rules also establish a “capital conservation buffer” of 2.5% (to be phased in over three years) above the new regulatory minimum risk-based capital ratios, and result in the following minimum ratios once the capital conservation buffer is fully phased in: (i) a common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 7%, (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 8.5%, and (iii) a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.5%.

The capital conservation buffer requirement was phased in beginning in January 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and will increase each year until fully implemented in January 2019. For 2018, the capital conservation buffer is 1.875%. An institution is subject to limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases and paying discretionary bonuses if capital levels fall below minimum plus the buffer amounts. These limitations establish a maximum percentage of eligible retained income that could be utilized for such actions.

Under these new rules, Tier 1 capital generally consists of common stock (plus related surplus) and retained earnings, limited amounts of minority interest in the form of additional Tier 1 capital instruments, and non-cumulative preferred stock and related surplus, subject to certain eligibility standards, less goodwill and other specified intangible assets and other regulatory deductions.

Cumulative preferred stock and trust preferred securities issued after May 19, 2010 no longer qualify as Tier 1 capital, but such securities issued prior to May 19, 2010, including in the case of bank holding companies with less than $15.0 billion in total assets, trust preferred securities issued prior to that date, continue to count as Tier 1 capital subject to certain limitations. The definition of Tier 2 capital is generally unchanged for most banking organizations, subject to certain new eligibility criteria.

The final rules allow banks and their holding companies with less than $250 billion in assets a one-time opportunity to opt-out of a requirement to include unrealized gains and losses in accumulated other comprehensive income in their capital calculation. The Company has made the decision to opt-out of this requirement. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of tangible and core capital (as defined in the regulations) to adjusted total assets (as defined), and of total capital (as defined) and Tier 1 to risk weighted assets (as defined). The minimum required capital amounts presented include the minimum required capital levels as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 to which it is subject. Management believes, as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, that the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject, including the phase–in requirements of Basel III.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make subjective judgments associated with estimates. These estimates are necessary to comply with U.S. GAAP and general banking practices. These estimates include accounting for the allowance for loan losses, foreclosed assets, valuation of deferred tax assets and fair value measurements. A description of these estimates, which significantly affect the Company’s determination of our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows, is set forth in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017.

The emphasis of this discussion is a comparison of assets, liabilities and stockholders’ equity as of September 30, 2018 to December 31, 2017, while comparing income and expenses for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017. All information should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” appearing in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2018, and December 31, 2018

At September 30, 2018, total assets were $904.9 million, a decline of $12.6 million compared to December 31, 2017. At September 30, 2018, total deposits declined by $27.1 million to $726.9 million. At September 30, 2018, brokered deposits totaled $73.2 million. At September 30, 2018, interest-bearing checking accounts totaled $185.4 million, a decline of $23.1 million compared to December 31, 2017 due to the loss of two municipal checking accounts. At September 30, 2018, non-interest bearing checking accounts totaled $134.3 million, a decline of $1.9 million increase compared to December 31, 2017. At September 30, 2018, non-interest bearing deposits are approximately 18.5% of total deposits.

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, the Company’s net loan portfolio has increased $26.7 million to $663.8 million. To fund the Company’s loan growth and deposit outflows, the Company reduced cash balances by $14.4 million and its available for sale securities portfolio by $25.5 million in the nine month period ended September 30, 2018.

The Company continues to place an emphasis on core funding while attempting to slow the growth of our deposit cost. However, increased competition for deposits is forcing management to increase deposit rates to ensure adequate funding levels. With a significant portion of the investment portfolio pledged to secure municipal deposits, management anticipates that future loan growth will be funded by time deposit growth and will result in reduced net interest margins.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Nine Month Periods Ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017.

The Company’s net income was $4.1 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, compared to net income of $3.5 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2017. The improved level of net income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2018 compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2017 was largely the result of loan portfolio growth, a $290,000 reduction in the Company’s provision for loan loss expense and a reduction in the Company’s federal tax rate.

The Company’s total interest income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2018 was $27.3 million, compared to $25.2 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2017. The increase in net interest income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2018 compared to September 30, 2017 was largely due to a $35.4 million increase in the average balance of loans outstanding.

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, total interest expense was $5.7 million compared to $4.4 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2017. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, the average balance of interest bearing liabilities was $686.0 million, representing a decline of $3.3 million compared to the average balance of interest bearing liabilities for the nine month period ended September 30, 2017. The increase in interest expense is largely the result of increases in short term interest rates spurred by the decision of the Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors to increase its stated overnight Federal Funds (“Fed Funds”) rate. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, the cost of average total deposits was 0.78% compared to 0.64% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2017.

For the nine month periods ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, the Company’s cost of interest bearing liabilities was 1.10% and 0.85%, respectively. In addition to increases in our cost of deposits, the interest expense on the Company’s FHLB borrowings has increased to $436,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2018 from $151,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2017 due to increases in short term interest rates and a $14.0 million increase in the average balance of FHLB borrowings.

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, the Company’s tax equivalent yield on loans was 4.73% compared to 4.47% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2017. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, the Company’s tax equivalent yield on tax free municipal securities was 3.95% compared to 5.05% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2017. For the nine month periods ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, the Company’s net interest margin was 3.42% and 3.37%. The increase in net interest margin occurred as result of loan growth and increases in loan yields due to increases in the Prime Rate. The change in the Company’s tax rate at January 1, 2018 reduced our fully tax equivalent yield on tax free municipal bonds by 0.77% and our net interest margin by 0.03%.

Average Balances, Yields and Interest Expenses. The table on the next page summarizes the overall effect of changes in both interest rates and the average balances of interest earning assets and liabilities for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017. Yields on assets and cost of liabilities are derived by dividing income or expense by the average daily balances of interest earning assets and liabilities for the appropriate nine month periods. Average balances for loans include loans classified as non-accrual, net of the allowance for loan losses. On January 1, 2018, the Company’s stated tax rate decreased from 34.0% to 21.0%, reducing the tax equivalent yield on tax free loans and tax free municipal investments.

Provision for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses based on management’s evaluation of the risk inherent in its loan portfolio and the general economy. Such evaluation considers numerous factors including general economic conditions, loan portfolio composition and prior loss experience, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral and other factors that warrant recognition in providing for an adequate loan loss allowance. The Company determined that an additional $204,000 in provision for loan loss was required for the nine month period ended September 30, 2018 compared to a $421,000 provision for loan loss expense for the nine month period ended September 30, 2017.

Non-Interest Expenses. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, non-interest expenses were $22.6 million, representing an increase of $536,000, or 2.4%, compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2017. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, total salaries and benefits expense increased by $235,000, or 1.9%, compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2017. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, data processing expenses increased by $251,000 as a result of a one-time reimbursement of $225,000 from a vendor in 2017. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, professional services increased by $233,000 to $1.5 million as a result of an increase in legal expenses.

Income Taxes. The effective tax rate for the nine month periods ending September 30, 2018 was 14.7% due to the reduction in the Company’s effective tax rate from 34% to 21% as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2017, the Company’s effective tax rate was 22.1% due to the receipt of proceeds from a bank owned life insurance policy.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Month Periods Ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017.

The Company’s net income was $1.2 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2018, compared to net income of $1.4 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2017. The decline in net income for the three month period ended September 30, 2018 compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2017 was largely the result of a $344,000 increase in non-interest expenses and a $157,000 decline in gains on the sale of securities.

The Company’s total interest income for the three month period ended September 30, 2018 was $9.3 million, compared to $8.6 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2017. The increase in net interest income for the three month period ended September 30, 2018 compared to September 30, 2017 was largely due to the $33.4 million increase in the average balance of loans.

For the three month period ended September 30, 2018, total interest expense was $2.2 million compared to $1.5 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2017. For the three month period ended September 30, 2018, total interest bearing liabilities were $683.6 million, representing a decline of $4.3 million compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2017. The increase in interest expense despite a decline in the average balance of interest bearing liabilities is the result of increases in short term interest rates spurred by the decision of the Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors to increase its stated overnight Federal Funds (“Fed Funds”) rate. For the three month period ended September 30, 2018, the cost of average total deposits was 0.93% compared to 0.65% for the three month period ended September 30, 2017.

Table of Contents

For the three month periods ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, the Company’s cost of interest bearing liabilities was 1.30% and 0.89%. In addition to increases in our cost of deposits, the interest expense on the Company’s FHLB borrowings increased from $89,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2017 from $210,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2018 due to increases in both the cost of borrowing and a $11.1 million increase in the average balance of FHLB borrowings.

For the three month period ended September 30, 2018, the Company’s tax equivalent yield on loans was 4.89% compared to 4.57% for the three month period ended September 30, 2017. For the three month period ended September 30, 2018, the Company’s tax equivalent yield on tax free municipal securities was 3.86% compared to 5.07% for the three month period ended September 30, 2017. For the three month periods ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, the Company’s net interest margin was 3.41% and 3.43%, respectively. On a linked quarter basis, the Company’s net interest margin declined four basis points. As short term interest rates continue to increase, the Company anticipates that out net interest margin may continue to decline.

Average Balances, Yields and Interest Expenses. The table on the next page summarizes the overall effect of changes in both interest rates and the average balances of interest earning assets and liabilities for the three month periods ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017. Yields on assets and cost of liabilities are derived by dividing income or expense by the average daily balances of interest earning assets and liabilities for the appropriate three month periods. Average balances for loans include loans classified as non-accrual, net of the allowance for loan losses. On January 1, 2018, the Company’s stated tax rate decreased from 34.0% to 21.0%, reducing the tax equivalent yield on tax free loans and tax free municipal investments.

The table adjusts tax-free investment income by $48,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2018 and $115,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2017, for a tax equivalent rate using a cost of funds rate of 1.30% for the three month period ended September 30, 2018 and 0.89% for the three month period ended September 30, 2017. The table adjusts tax-free loan income by $36,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2018 and $17,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2017, for a tax equivalent rate using the same cost of funds rate.

Such evaluation considers numerous factors including general economic conditions, loan portfolio composition and prior loss experience, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral and other factors that warrant recognition in providing for an adequate loan loss allowance. The Company determined that an additional $74,000 in provision for loan loss was required for the three month period ended September 30, 2018 compared to a $71,000 provision for loan loss expense for the three month period ended September 30, 2017.

Non-Interest Expenses. For the three month period ended September 30, 2018, non-interest expenses were $7.5 million compared to $7.2 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2017. For the three month period ended September 30, 2018, total salaries and benefits expense increased $215,000 to $4.1 million compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2017. For the three month period ended September 30, 2018, advertising and professional services expenses were $329,000 and $489.000, representing increases of $89,000 and $80,000 compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2017.

Income Taxes. The effective tax rate for the three month periods ending September 30, 2018 was 12.7% due to the reduction in the Company’s effective tax rate from 34% to 21% as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and the Company’s significant amount of tax free income. For the three month period ended September 30, 2017, the Company’s effective tax rate was 24.4%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources. The Company has no business other than that of the Bank. Management believes that dividends that may be paid by the Bank to the Company will provide sufficient funds for its current needs. However, no assurance can be given that the Company will not have a need for additional funds in the future. The Bank is subject to certain regulatory limitations with respect to the payment of dividends to the Company.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. Additional written or oral forward-looking statements may be made by the Company from time to time in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or otherwise.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The actual results of the Company’s asset liability management analysis are highly dependent on the prepayment speed of mortgage backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations. The United States Treasury’s policy of purchasing longer dated Treasury bonds has the result of lowering mortgage loan rates, allowing more consumers to refinance their mortgages and pay-off their current mortgage, resulting in higher prepayment speeds on mortgage investment products.

The effects of rising interest rates are discussed throughout Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Actual results for the year ending December 31, 2018 will differ from simulations due to timing, magnitude, and the frequency or interest rate changes, market conditions, management strategies, and the timing of the Company’s cash receipts and disbursements.

The Company’s analysis at September 30, 2018 indicates that changes in interest rates are less likely to result in significant changes in the Company’s annual net interest income. A summary of the Company’s analysis at September 30, 2018 for the twelve month period ending September 30, 2019 is as follows:

 

     Down 1.00%      No change      Up 1.00%      Up 2.00%      Up 3.00%  
     (Dollars in Thousands)  

Net interest income

   $ 28,692      $ 30,214      $ 31,225      $ 32,121      $ 33,070  

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

In accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), an evaluation was carried out with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the quarter ended September 30, 2018.

Based upon their evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the nine month period ended September 30, 2018 to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, was made known to them by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this quarterly report on Form 10-Q was being prepared.

Any control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that its objectives are achieved. The design of a control system inherently has limitations, including the controls cost relative to their benefits. Additionally, controls can be circumvented. No cost-effective control system can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud will be detected.

The Company is subject to Section 404 of The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Section 404 requires management to assess and report on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
