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-month periods ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, the Company has excluded all unearned shares held by the ESOP.

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 March 31, 2019, the Company has 82 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 as of March 31, 2019.

At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, securities with a book value of approximately $96.0 million and $96.5 million and a market value of approximately $97.1 million and $96.9 million, respectively, were pledged to various municipalities for deposits in excess of FDIC limits as required by law. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, securities with a market value of $59.0 million and $53.0 million, respectively, were sold to customers as part of overnight repurchase agreements.

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.

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.

All commercial loans with a risk classification of watch or better are considered a pass credit.

 

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. All consumer loans classified as satisfactory are considered a pass credit.

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.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, the Company identified one additional commercial loan as a TDR. The loan is secured by a Company’s accounts receivable. The TDR classification is the result of the borrower’s declining financial condition and substandard collateral position, prompting the Company to lengthen the amortization period of the loan to five years, which exceeds our standard amortization period of three years. There were no loans as of March 31, 2019 that have been modified as TDRs and that subsequently defaulted within twelve months on their modified terms. At March 31, 2019, 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 three-month period ended March 31, 2019, 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 fair values for investment securities available-for-sale are based on quoted market prices. 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.

EFFECT OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Table of Contents

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 was effective on January 1, 2019. The Company has determined that the leases existing at March 31, 2019 are not material to 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. Write-downs will be based on historical information, current business conditions, and forecasts, and FASB expects the forecasts to improve the loss estimates on financial assets that are losing value. FASB 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 on January 1, 2020. 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 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 was permitted. The adoption of ASU 2017-08 did not have a material 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 15, 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 adopted ASU 2018-02 during the year ended December 31, 2018.

ASU 2018-16, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)—Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Overnight Index Swap (OIS) Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes.” The amendments in this update permit use of the OIS rate based on SOFR as a U.S. benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes under Topic 815 in addition to the interest rates on direct U.S. Treasury obligations, the LIBOR swap rate, the OIS rate based on the Fed Funds Effective Rate and the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) Municipal Swap Rate. ASU 2018-16 was effective on January 1, 2019 and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s 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 bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Reclassifications

Certain items in prior financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Reclassifications had no effect on prior year’s net income or shareholders’ equity.

INCOME TAXES

The Company files consolidated federal income tax returns and Tennessee excise tax returns. The Company also 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 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 March 31, 2019, 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 March 31, 2019, 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 March 31, 2019, the Company’s investment portfolio includes $25.0 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 unearned shares 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.

Table of Contents

Employees may withdraw proceeds from the ESOP in the year after their employment with the Company is terminated. Former employees have the option of selling Company shares back into the ESOP or withdrawing shares. Employees who are not employed on December 31st of each year are not eligible for participation in the ESOP. The Company anticipates that loan payments will be made at the end of each year. Participants receive shares at the end of employment. The Company has the option to repurchase the shares or provide the shares directly to the employee.

The Company made its fourth ESOP loan payment in December 2018. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, shares held by the ESOP were as follows:

The Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati has issued letters of credit in the Bank’s name totaling $49.6 million secured by the Bank’s loan portfolio to secure additional municipal deposits. 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.

On January 7, 2019, the Company announced a definitive agreement to merge into and with First Financial Corporation of Terre Haute, Indiana. The proposed merger requires the Company’s shareholder approval. As a part of the merger agreement, the Company anticipates incurring additional pre-tax expenses to facilitate the merger. The expenses include a non-cash charge of approximately $244,000 for the accelerated vesting of restricted common stock, cash payment of approximately $2.7 million in change of control payments to senior executive officers and cash payments to Sandler O’Neil of approximately $1.0 million for their services as the Company’s investment banker. In addition to the expenses listed above, the Company will incur yet to be determined legal and professional fees as a part of the merger process. The Company anticipates that these expense items will be recognized once shareholder approval is received.

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 increased each year until fully implemented at 2.5% on January 1, 2019. 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 March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 to which it is subject. Management believes, as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, that the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. The Company’s consolidated capital ratios and the Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are presented below:

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, 2018.

The emphasis of this discussion is a comparison of assets, liabilities and stockholders’ equity as of March 31, 2019 to December 31, 2018, while comparing income and expenses for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018. 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, 2018.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018

At March 31, 2019, total assets were $934.3 million, an increase of $2.9 million compared to December 31, 2018. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, the Company’s net loan portfolio has increased $7.5 million to $666.3 million.

At March 31, 2019, total deposits increased by $2.0 million to $741.8 million. The increase in deposit accounts occurred despite an $8.9 million decline in brokered deposits. At March 31, 2019, non-interest bearing checking accounts totaled $125.7 million, a decline of $3.8 million compared to December 31, 2018. At March 31, 2019, retail repurchase account balances totaled $59.0 million, an increase of $6.0 million compared to December 31, 2018.

The Company continues to place an emphasis on core funding while attempting to slow the growth of our deposit cost. However, increased competition and the Company’s continued strong loan demand will force management to increase deposit rates to ensure adequate funding levels to meet liquidity needs. Management anticipates that future loan growth will be funded largely by the recruitment of time deposits. The Company’s investment portfolio may provide additional liquidity. However, a significant portion of the investment portfolio is pledged to municipalities to secure deposits, limiting the Company’s ability to significantly increase our loan to deposit ratio above current levels.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three-Month Periods Ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018.

The Company’s net income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 was $623,000 compared to $1.1 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. The reduction in net income is largely the result of $596,000 in merger related expenses incurred during the three-month period ending March 31, 2019, reducing net income by $471,000.

The Company’s total interest income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 was $9.5 million, compared to $8.8 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. The increase in net interest income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 compared to March 31, 2018 was largely due to the $14.5 million increase in the average balance of loans outstanding. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, total interest expense was $2.7 million compared to $1.6 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, total interest bearing liabilities were $685.1 million, representing an increase of $1.5 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. 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 three-month period ended March 31, 2019, the cost of average total deposits was 1.16% compared to 0.67% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, the Company’s cost of interest bearing liabilities was 1.57% and 0.94%, respectively.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, the Company’s tax equivalent yield on loans was 5.00% compared to 4.62% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, the Company’s tax equivalent yield on tax free municipal securities was 3.82% compared to 3.96% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, the Company’s net interest margin was 3.24% and 3.45%, respectively.

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 March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018. 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. The table adjusts tax-free investment income by $47,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 and $53,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, for a tax equivalent rate using a cost of funds rate of 1.57% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 and 0.94% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. The table adjusts tax-free loan income by $40,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 and $5,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, for a tax equivalent rate using the same cost of funds rate.

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 $60,000 in provision for loan loss was required for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 compared to a $68,000 provision for loan loss expense for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018.

Non-Interest Expenses. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, non-interest expenses were $7.7 million compared to $7.5 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, data processing expenses and occupancy expense increased by $46,000 and $38,000, respectively, compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. The Company incurred net expenses of $20,000 on the sale of foreclosed assets during the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 compared to a net gain on $6,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 and excluding merger expenses, no other expense line item experienced an increase compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 2018.

Income Taxes. The effective tax rate for the three-month periods ending March 31, 2019 was 1.0% due to lower levels of net income, municipal bond income and higher levels of tax free income due to the payment of a death benefit on a bank owned life insurance policy. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, the Company’s effective tax rate was 14.8%.

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.

The Bank uses brokered deposits to supplement its asset liability need for longer term deposits reasonable prices. In addition to the coupon rate listed below, brokered deposits carry an additional fee of approximately 0.25% that includes the cost of selling and servicing the deposits. The Company includes this cost as interest expense on its income statement. At March 31, 2019, the Bank’s brokered deposits consisted of the following:

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. The words “believe,” “expect,” “seek,” and “intend” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statement is made. Such forward-looking statements are within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements may include, but are not limited to, projections of income or loss, expenditures, acquisitions, plans for future operations, financing needs or plans relating to services of the Company, as well as assumptions relating to the foregoing.

Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. Future events and actual results could differ materially from those set forth in, contemplated by or underlying the forward-looking statements. The Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims, any obligation to publicly release the results of revisions, which may be made to forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements.

 

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, 2019 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 March 31, 2019 indicates that an increase in interest rates across the entire yield curve may result in an increase in net interest income. A summary of the Company’s analysis at March 31, 2019 for the twelve month period ending March 31, 2020 is as follows:

 

     Down 1.00%      No change      Up 1.00%      Up 2.00%      Up 3.00%

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 March 31, 2019.

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 three-month period ended March 31, 2019 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.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings
