DEAR SHAREHOLDERS,

It is my pleasure to report to you that Pinnacle Bankshares Corporation, the one-bank holding company for First National Bank, continued its trend of significantly improved financial performance during 2012 while executing strategic initiatives that are focused on positioning your Company for enhanced future returns. Progress was made on many fronts; however the year’s most important achievement was the substantial reduction of problem loans. This “cleansing” of our loan portfolio was driven by disciplined adherence to our credit quality improvement plan, the expansion of processes utilized to identify and quantify risk and the continued improvement of our regional economy. Our ability to rebound from the fire that destroyed our Vista Branch Office in April 2012 and remain focused on our objectives is a testament to Pinnacle’s culture of teamwork and our determination to move your Company forward. I am excited about the foundations for success that are being laid and the opportunities we have to further acquire and expand customer relationships across the Region 2000 market.

For 2012 Pinnacle generated net income of $1,338,000, which was a 26% increase as compared to the $1,063,000 produced in 2011. The higher level of net income was largely driven by a significant reduction in the Company’s provision for loan losses as a result of improved asset quality and a lower amount of loan charge-offs. From an asset quality point of view, the Company’s total criticized and classified loans decreased $11,892,000 or 51% during the year. This reduction was substantial and to some degree achieved through difficult decisions to exit relationships and liquidate collateral. As a result loan charge-offs, while lower compared to 2011, were still elevated for the year. However, there are also numerous examples of loans that were upgraded throughout 2012 due to improvement in the borrower’s financial condition. We view these occurrences as evidence that the economy is healing. In fact, we have been encouraged by recent announcements regarding companies expanding in our area, declining local unemployment numbers and a noticeable uptick in the real estate market caused by shrinking inventories, shorter marketing times and some price appreciation. The growth of area colleges and universities has positively contributed to our region’s economic recovery along with the existence of companies on the forefront of technology and energy innovation and a strong healthcare system. The combination of these factors leads us to believe that a corner has been turned in regards to asset quality and that problem loans should continue to diminish.

For 2012 Pinnacle also continued to benefit from strong non-interest income, which increased $190,000 or approximately 6% compared to the prior year due in large part to the outstanding performance of the Company’s secondary market mortgage operation. Fees generated from the sale of mortgage loans increased $177,000 as the number of originations were up 44%, which were driven by historically low interest rates and improved residential real estate activity. Tracie A. Gallahan, Vice President and Mortgage Production Manager, has done a magnificent job of leading our mortgage team through a multitude of regulatory changes and increased burden over the last couple of years while also increasing our mortgage loan volume.

Pinnacle’s lower provision and increased non-interest income combined to offset a decline in net interest income during 2012, which decreased $490,000 or approximately 4%. The decline was driven by lower yields on interest earning assets, comprised primarily of loans and investments, due to a continuation of the low interest rate environment and ever increasing competition for opportunities to extend credit to qualified borrowers. The Company’s cost of funds also decreased during 2012, however the decline was less than the reduction in yields on interest earning assets as it became increasingly difficult to further lower the interest paid on deposits. Volume was not a significant factor as interest earning assets actually increased due to improved loan demand and interest bearing liabilities only declined slightly. As of December 31, 2012 the net interest margin was 3.54%, which is a decrease of seventeen basis points as compared to the

 

4


net interest margin as of the prior year end. We expect continued pressure on asset yields for the foreseeable future due to the number of banks aggressively seeking opportunities to deploy excess funds and limited availability of investment options offering appreciable returns that do not expose the Company to significant interest rate risk. We anticipate that further margin compression will be somewhat mitigated by the re-pricing of maturing longer term certificates of deposit throughout 2013.

The Company’s non-interest expense was up $366,000 or approximately 3% for 2012 as compared to 2011, although core operating expenses were well controlled. The increase was primarily related to the credit quality improvement plan and resulting expenses associated with foreclosures. The Company also increased the amount of funds spent on advertising as part of its effort to expand the Bank’s visibility and brand recognition. Hopefully many of you have noticed the television commercials, billboards and radio advertisements depicting First National as a “104 Year Old Bank With A Little Flair.”

The 2012 year-end balance sheet for Pinnacle reflected total assets of $348,694,000, which represents modest growth of 1.8% as compared to the end of 2011. Net loans grew $6,549,000 or approximately 2.5% during the year, while the Company’s investment portfolio declined $2,563,000 due to maturing and called issues. Cash and cash equivalents were down $1,757,000 to $35,790,000. Deposit balances increased $4,764,000 or approximately 1.5% to $315,157,000 as of year-end with demand deposits, savings and NOW accounts increasing a combined $13,189,000, which more than offset an $8,425,000 decrease in time deposits. Management continues to focus attention on the acquisition of checking accounts in an effort to establish more core relationships, lower the Company’s cost of funds and further reduce time deposit dependency. Our asset and liability structure has your Company positioned to benefit from a rising interest rate environment.

Total stockholders’ equity was $28,089,000 as of December 31, 2012, with average equity to average assets improving to 8.04% as compared to 7.93% as of the prior year end. Most importantly, Pinnacle Bankshares Corporation and First National Bank continue to be considered well capitalized by all regulatory definitions. We are proud of the fact that your Company did not participate in the government’s Troubled-Asset Relief Program or TARP during the height of the financial crisis and that we did not have the need to embark on a capital raise or issuance of capital notes during a time when those actions could have resulted in a substantial dilution of your ownership stake in the Company. Our ability to “weather the storm” without taking these actions should position our shareholders well for enhanced levels of returns in the future.

Pinnacle’s allowance for loan losses was $3,646,000 as of December 31, 2012, which was 1.31% of total loans. In comparison the allowance was 1.48% of total loans as of year-end 2011. The decline was a direct result of improved loan quality as the ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans decreased from 1.74% as of the prior year end to 1.09% as of the end of 2012. Our allowance balance actually increased as a percentage of nonperforming loans during 2012, improving to 121% as compared to 85% as of the prior year end, which is indicative of the allowance’s adequacy. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was almost unchanged at 1.55% as of December 31, 2012 as the Company’s other real estate owned increased due to properties acquired through foreclosures.

During December of 2012, Pinnacle completed the deregistration of its common shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission and, on January 2, 2013, the Company suspended its reporting obligations. We expect these actions to provide material costs savings for the Company going forward. The trading platform for the Company’s stock has not been impacted as a result of these actions and Management is committed to providing updated information regarding the Company’s financial performance to shareholders on a regular basis. This information is available on our website, www.1stnatbk.com, under the “Investor Relations” tab.

Improved asset quality and earnings combined with anticipated future cost savings from deregistration prompted the declaration of a $0.05 per share cash dividend to shareholders during the fourth quarter of 2012 and again during the first quarter of 2013. We are appreciative of our shareholders support and confidence throughout the great recession and subsequent slow recovery and we are pleased to reach a point where we can provide a return to our shareholders in the form of a cash dividend.

The fire that destroyed the Vista Branch Office on April 10, 2012 certainly was an unexpected setback; however in many ways we were extremely fortunate. The fast action of our Vista employees in the face of adversity resulted in no one being harmed, minimal loss of cash and coin and no damage to safe deposit box contents. Soon after the fire the Bank’s Board of Directors announced its intention to rebuild the office, confirming its commitment to the Altavista Community, our clients and employees. We broke ground on our new facility in late December and, as of this letter, the building is under roof with early May of 2013 being its anticipated opening date.

Transition and change are a part of business and life. On this note I would like to take the opportunity to inform you that Carroll E. Shelton, Vice President of Pinnacle Bankshares Corporation and Senior Vice President and Chief Credit Officer of First National Bank, has communicated his intention to retire from the Bank, effective July 1, 2013, after forty years of service. Carroll’s contributions to the success of our Company throughout his career are too many to list in this letter; however there are none more significant than the leadership he has provided throughout the execution of the credit quality improvement plan. His efforts to help change our credit culture will have a lasting positive impact on the Company and its ability to further improve financial performance. While Carroll is retiring from the Bank as an employee, he will remain a member of the Board of Directors for both the Company and the Bank at least until his current term expires in April of 2015.

As a result of Carroll’s decision, a succession plan was developed and I am pleased to announce that William J.“Buck” Sydnor, II will assume the Chief Credit Officer’s role for the Bank effective July, 1, 2013. Buck is a proven leader, a team player and a long-term Senior Manager who possesses a diversified banking background that includes retail management and commercial lending. His business minded, process oriented approach to banking will ensure that we stay on the right track in regards to further enhancement of the Bank’s credit culture.

Vivian Brown, Retail Sales and Service Manager, will replace Buck as Branch Administration Officer effective July 1, 2013. Vivian has worked closely with Buck in guiding our Retail Branches over the last couple of years and has been instrumental in the further cultivation of the Bank’s sales culture. She is a respected leader with a diversified retail banking background. Vivian has been well-groomed to take on this role and I am confident in her ability to successfully execute our sales initiatives.

In closing, your Board and Management Team are committed to the development and execution of strategies to further improve Pinnacle’s performance and enhance returns while operating within the parameters of what is considered safe and sound banking practices. We realize that the road to success is not a path easily traveled; however hard work, dedication and perseverance always tend to help pave the way.

To hear more about the performance and direction of Pinnacle Bankshares Corporation, please plan to attend our Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held at 11:00 am, Tuesday, April 9, 2013 in the Fellowship Hall of Altavista Presbyterian Church, 707 Broad Street, Altavista, Virginia. We are hopeful that you will be able to join us for this occasion.

Thank you for your support, confidence and the opportunity to serve your interests as President and Chief Executive Officer of Pinnacle Bankshares Corporation.

 

Sincerely,

Aubrey H. Hall, III “Todd”

President & Chief Executive Officer

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

(in thousands, except ratios, share and per share data)

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

The following discussion is qualified in its entirety by the more detailed information and the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to the historical information contained herein, this Annual Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements, which are not statements of historical fact and are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies, and expectations of management, are generally identifiable by use of words such as “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “may,” “will” or similar expressions. These forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements relating to future reporting obligations, anticipated future financial performance, funding sources including cash generated by banking operations, loan portfolio composition, trends in asset quality and strategies to address nonperforming assets and nonaccrual loans, adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and future provisions for loan losses, securities portfolio composition and future performance, interest rate environments, deposit insurance assessments, and strategic business initiatives.

Although we believe our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that these plans, intentions, or expectations will be achieved. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain, and actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those contemplated. Factors that could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to, changes in: the effectiveness of management’s efforts to improve asset quality and control operating expenses; the quality, composition and growth of the loan and investment portfolios; interest rates; decrease in net interest margin, declining collateral values, especially in the real estate market; general economic conditions, including stagnation in general business and economic conditions and in the financial markets; unemployment levels; the legislative/regulatory climate, including the impact of any policies or programs implemented pursuant to the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (the EESA), the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (the ARRA), the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the Dodd-Frank Act) or other laws; monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; demand for loan products; deposit flows; competition; demand for financial services in our market area; regulatory compliance costs; accounting principles, policies and guidelines; and an increase in shareholders that would require the Company to be subject to the reporting obligations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements contained herein. We base our forward-looking statements on management’s beliefs and assumptions based on information available as of the date of this report. You should not place undue reliance on such statements, because the assumptions, beliefs, expectations and projections about future events on which they are based may, and often do, differ materially from actual results. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect developments occurring after the statement is made.

In addition, although nonperforming assets substantially improved in 2012, since the recession that began in the second half of 2008, we have experienced increases in loan losses. Continued difficulties in significant portions of the global financial markets, particularly if it worsens, could further impact our performance, both directly by affecting our revenues and the value of our assets and liabilities, and indirectly by affecting our counterparties and the economy generally. Dramatic declines in the residential and commercial real estate markets in recent years have resulted in significant write-downs of asset values by financial institutions in the United States. Concerns about the stability of the U.S. financial markets generally have reduced the availability of funding to certain financial institutions, leading to a tightening of credit and reduction of business activity. There can be no assurance that the EESA, the ARRA, the Dodd-Frank Act or other actions taken by the Federal government will stabilize the U.S. financial system or alleviate the industry or economic factors that may adversely affect our business. In addition, our business and financial performance could be impacted as the financial industry restructures in the current environment, both by changes in the creditworthiness and performance of our counterparties and by changes in the competitive and regulatory landscape.

Company Overview

Pinnacle Bankshares Corporation, a Virginia corporation (Bankshares), was organized in 1997 and is registered as a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. Bankshares is headquartered in Altavista, Virginia. Bankshares conducts all of its business activities through the branch offices of its wholly owned subsidiary bank, First National Bank (the Bank). Bankshares exists primarily for the purpose of holding the stock of its subsidiary, the Bank, and of such other subsidiaries as it may acquire or establish.

First National Bank was organized in 1908 and currently maintains a total of eight offices to serve its customers. The Main Office and Vista Branch (which is in the process of being rebuilt after being destroyed by fire in 2012 and is expected to be open in May 2013) are located in the Town of Altavista, the Airport Branch, Timberlake Branch and Rustburg Branch in Campbell County, the Old Forest Road Branch in the City of Lynchburg, the Forest Branch in Bedford County and the Amherst Branch in the Town of Amherst. The Bank also maintains an administrative and training facility in the Wyndhurst section of the City of Lynchburg.

A total of one-hundred five full and part-time staff members serve the Bank’s customers.

With an emphasis on personal service, the Bank today offers a broad range of commercial and retail banking products and services including checking, savings and time deposits, individual retirement accounts, merchant bankcard processing, residential and commercial mortgages, home equity loans, consumer installment loans, agricultural loans, investment loans, small business loans, commercial lines of credit and letters of credit. The Bank also offers a full range of investment, insurance and annuity products through its association with Infinex Investments, Inc. and Banker’s Insurance, LLC. The Bank has two wholly-owned subsidiaries: FNB Property Corp., which holds title to Bank premises real estate; and First Properties, Inc., which holds title to other real estate owned acquired through foreclosures.

The following discussion supplements and provides information about the major components of the results of operations and financial condition, liquidity and capital resources of Bankshares and its subsidiary (collectively the Company). This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Securities and Exchange Commission defines “critical accounting policies” as those that require application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in future periods. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Executive Summary

The Company serves a trade area known as Region 2000, consisting primarily of Campbell County, northern Pittsylvania County, eastern Bedford County, Amherst County and the city of Lynchburg, from nine facilities located within the area. The Company operates in a well-diversified industrial economic region that does not depend upon one or a few types of commerce.

The Company earns revenues on the interest margin between the interest it charges on loans it extends to customers and interest received on the Company’s securities portfolio net of the interest it pays on deposits to customers. The Company also earns revenues on service charges on deposit and loan products, gains on securities that are called or sold, fees from origination of mortgages, and other noninterest income items including but not limited to overdraft fees, commissions from the sale of investment products, insurance and annuity sales, safe deposit box rentals, and automated teller machine surcharges. In 2012, an increase in net income was realized due to a substantial decrease in provision for loan losses due to asset quality improvement as well as an increase in mortgage loan fees. The Company’s revenue generating activities and related expenses are outlined in the consolidated statements of income and consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income and accompanying notes and in “Results of Operations” below.

The Company generates and utilizes cash through its operating, investing and financing activities. The generation and utilization of cash flows is outlined more fully in the consolidated statements of cash flows and accompanying notes and in “Liquidity and Asset/Liability Management” below.

The Company’s balance sheet experienced a slight increase in its loan and deposit portfolios in 2012. The overall growth of the Company is outlined in the consolidated balance sheets and accompanying notes and the “Investment Portfolio,” “Loan Portfolio,” “Bank Premises and Equipment,” “Deposits” and “Capital Resources” discussions below.

The Company expects limited loan portfolio growth in 2013, as the Company further improves its capital ratios by limiting its growth and accreting capital through retained earnings. The Company will look to continue growth in its branches, especially the Amherst and Rustburg locations, as the Company continues to build relationships with businesses and individuals within each market. While growing, the Company continues to leverage efficiencies from its reporting and imaging systems. The Company is also making its customers’ banking experience more convenient by offering innovative products and services and providing many channels to bank with the Company including Internet banking, Internet bill pay, telephone banking, mobile banking, remote deposit capture, debit and credit cards and real-time ATMs. The Company will continue to identify and install convenient products and services in 2013 with the goal to better enhance the customer’s experience with the Company.

Overview of 2012 and 2011

Total assets at December 31, 2012 were $348,694, up 1.81% from $342,484 at December 31, 2011. The principal components of the Company’s assets at the end of the year were $35,790 in cash and cash equivalents, $22,206 in securities and $273,672 in net loans. During the year ended December 31, 2012, gross loans increased 2.28% or $6,180. The Company’s lending activities are a principal source of income. Loans increased in 2012 as the Company experienced slightly higher demand for credit, despite higher credit standards, as loan rates fell.

Total liabilities at December 31, 2012 were $320,605, up 1.61% from $315,537 at December 31, 2011, primarily due to an increase in total deposits of $4,764 or 1.53%, to $315,157 at December 31, 2012 from $310,393 at December 31, 2011. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $4,523 or 13.53% and represented 12.04% of total deposits at December 31, 2012, compared to 10.77% at December 31, 2011. Savings and NOW accounts increased $8,666 or 6.54% and represented 44.79% of total deposits at December 31, 2012, compared to 42.69% at December 31, 2011. Time deposits decreased $8,425 or 5.83% and represented 43.16% of total deposits at December 31, 2012, compared to 46.54% at December 31, 2011. The Company’s deposits are provided by individuals and businesses located within the communities served. The Company had no brokered deposits as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Total stockholders’ equity at December 31, 2012 was $28,089, including $24,244 in retained earnings. At December 31, 2011, stockholders’ equity totaled $26,947, including $22,981 in retained earnings. The increase in stockholders’ equity resulted largely from the Company’s net income of $1,338.

The Company had net income of $1,338 for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to net income of $1,063 for the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of 25.87%. The Company’s net income increased primarily due to a $1,050, or 47.15%, decrease in provision for loan losses as asset quality improved throughout the year and a $190, or 5.84%, increase in noninterest income as mortgage loan fees increased in 2012 by $177, or 39.25%. These positive factors that contributed to the increase in net income were partially offset by a $490, or 4.05%, decrease in net interest income as the net interest margin declined in 2012 and a $366, or 3.17%, increase in noninterest expense as losses on OREO sales and cost of foreclosures increased in 2012. Management expects continued improvement in net income, although whether the Company can continue to improve net income could be adversely affected by numerous factors including factors related to the Company’s asset quality. We do not expect the Company’s net interest margin to decrease further in 2013. We expect a minimal increase in noninterest income in 2013. We expect no substantial increase in noninterest expense in 2013.

Profitability as measured by the Company’s return on average assets (ROA) was 0.39% in 2012, compared to 0.31% in 2011. Return on average equity (ROE), was 4.83% for 2012, compared to 3.95% for 2011.

Overview of 2011 and 2010

Total assets at December 31, 2011 were $342,484, up 1.59% from $337,113 at December 31, 2010. The principal components of the Company’s assets at the end of the year were $37,547 in cash and cash equivalents, $24,769 in securities and $267,123 in net loans. During the year ended December 31, 2011, gross loans increased 0.77% or $2,071. Loans increased in 2011 as the Company experienced slightly higher demand for credit, despite higher credit standards, as loan rates fell.

Total liabilities at December 31, 2011 were $315,537, up 1.58% from $310,631 at December 31, 2010, primarily due to an increase in total deposits of $3,439 or 1.12%. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $2,248 or 7.21% and represented 10.77% of total deposits at December 31, 2011, compared to 10.16% at December 31, 2010. Savings and NOW accounts increased $14,557 or 12.34% and represented 42.69% of total deposits at December 31, 2011, compared to 38.42% at December 31, 2010. Time deposits decreased $13,366 or 8.47% and represented 46.54% of total deposits at December 31, 2011, compared to 51.42% at December 31, 2010. The Company’s deposits are provided by individuals and businesses located within the communities served. The Company had no brokered deposits as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

Total stockholders’ equity at December 31, 2011 was $26,947, including $22,981 in retained earnings. At December 31, 2010, stockholders’ equity totaled $26,482, including $21,918 in retained earnings. The increase in stockholders’ equity resulted largely from the Company’s net income of $1,063 during 2011 partially offset by $871 in unrealized losses to our defined benefit plan.

The Company had net income of $1,063 for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to net income of $687 for the year ended December 31, 2010, an increase of 54.73%. The Company’s net income increased primarily due to an increase in net interest income, which was largely due to improvements to the Company’s net interest margin, and an increase in noninterest income, partially offset by an increase in provision for loan losses and noninterest expense.

Profitability as measured by the Company’s return on average assets (ROA) was 0.31% in 2011, compared to 0.21% in 2010. Return on average equity (ROE), was 3.95% for 2011, compared to 2.62% for 2010.

Results of Operations

Net Interest Income. Net interest income represents the principal source of earnings for the Company. Net interest income is the amount by which interest and fees generated from loans, securities and other interest-earning assets exceed the interest expense associated with funding those assets. Changes in the amounts and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as their respective yields and rates, have a significant impact on the level of net interest income. Changes in the interest rate environment and the Company’s cost of funds also affect net interest income.

The net interest spread decreased to 3.31% for the year ended December 31, 2012 from 3.47% for the year ended December 31, 2011. Net interest income was $11,601 ($11,690 on a tax-equivalent basis) for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to $12,091 ($12,178 on a tax-equivalent basis) for the year ended December 31, 2011, and is attributable to interest income from loans, federal funds sold and securities exceeding the cost associated with interest paid on deposits and other borrowings. In 2012, the Company’s loans repriced at lower rates more rapidly than did its deposits in the low interest rate environment, causing the Company’s interest rate spread to decrease. The Bank’s cost of funds rate on interest-bearing liabilities in 2012 was 15 basis points lower compared to 2011. The Bank’s yield on interest-earning assets for the year ended December 31, 2012 was 31 basis points lower than the year ended December 31, 2011 due to higher yielding assets being replaced by lower yielding assets in 2012 and repricing of existing assets in the low interest rate environment.

The net interest spread increased to 3.47% for the year ended December 31, 2011 from 3.07% for the year ended December 31, 2010. Net interest income was $12,091 ($12,178 on a tax-equivalent basis) for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to $10,776 ($10,842 on a tax-equivalent basis) for the year ended December 31, 2010, and is attributable to interest income from loans, federal funds sold and securities exceeding the cost associated with interest paid on deposits and other borrowings. In 2011, our deposits repriced at lower rates more

rapidly than did our loans in the low rate environment, causing our interest rate spread to increase. The Bank’s cost of funds rate on interest-bearing liabilities in 2011 was 53 basis points lower compared to 2010. The Bank’s yield on interest-earning assets for the year ended December 31, 2011 was 13 basis points lower than the year ended December 31, 2010 due to higher yielding assets being replaced by lower yielding assets in 2011 and repricing of existing assets in the low rate environment.

In an effort to stimulate economic activity, the Federal Reserve has maintained interest rates at exceptionally low levels, causing the Company’s interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities to reprice downward. The Company’s net interest margins expanded from 2010 to 2011 and compressed from 2011 to 2012. The Company’s lower net interest margin in 2012 was due to lower yields from new loans and investments as a result of this lower interest rate environment. The Company attempts to conserve net interest margin by product pricing strategies, such as attracting deposits with longer maturities when rates are relatively low and attracting deposits with shorter maturities when rates are relatively high, all depending on our funding needs. Many economic forecasts of interest rates including those of the Federal Open Market Committee, predict that interest rates will continue to remain at historically low levels for 2013. The Company does not expect its net interest margin to decrease further in 2013 as it expects interest-bearing liabilities to reprice downward slightly faster than interest-earning assets. While there is no guarantee of how rates may change in 2013, the Company will price products that are competitive in the market, allow for growth and strive to maintain the net interest margin as much as possible. The Company also continues to seek new sources of noninterest income to combat the effects of volatility in the interest rate environment.

The following table presents the major categories of interest-earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities and stockholders’ equity with corresponding average balances, related interest income or interest expense and resulting yield and rates for the periods indicated.

(1) Averages are daily averages.
(2) Loan interest income includes accretion of loan fees of $11 in 2012, $13 in 2011 and $30 in 2010
(3) For the purpose of these computations, non-accrual loans are included in average loans.
(4) Tax-exempt income from investment securities is presented on a tax-equivalent basis assuming a 34% U.S. Federal tax rate for 2012, 2011 and 2010.
(5) The net interest margin is calculated by dividing net interest income by average total interest-earning assets.
(6) The net interest spread is calculated by subtracting the interest rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities from the interest rate earned on interest-earning assets.

As discussed above, the Company’s net interest income is affected by the change in the amounts and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as “volume change,” as well as by changes in yields earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on deposits and other borrowed funds, referred to as “rate change.” The following table presents, for the periods indicated, a summary of changes in interest income and interest expense for the major categories of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the amounts of change attributable to variations in volumes and rates.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses is based upon the Company’s evaluation of the quality of the loan portfolio, total outstanding and committed loans, the Company’s previous loan loss experience and current and anticipated economic conditions. The amount of the provision for loan losses is a charge against earnings. Actual loan losses are charges against the allowance for loan losses.

The Company’s allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level deemed by management to be adequate to provide for known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio. No assurance can be given that unforeseen adverse economic conditions or other circumstances will not result in increased provisions in the future, or that the allowance for loan losses will be adequate for actual losses. Additionally, regulatory examiners may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based upon their judgment about information available to them at the time of their examinations.

The provisions for loan losses for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 were $1,177, $2,227 and $1,878, respectively. The provision for loan losses, although much improved in 2012, has been elevated since 2008 as management recognized and continues to recognize weaknesses in the credit quality of the loan portfolio

 

13


due to declining economic conditions, declining collateral values and the increased risk of some customer’s inability to service their loans due to job losses. The provision for loan losses decreased 47.15% from 2011 to 2012 as criticized and classified loans and loan chargeoffs decreased due to the success of an aggressive asset quality improvement plan implemented in 2011 that has led to higher loan quality. The provision for loan losses increased 18.58% from 2010 to 2011 due to a higher level of chargeoffs as management addressed problem loans with an aggressive asset quality improvement plan. The Company saw an improvement in its nonperforming loans to total loans from 1.74% on December 31, 2011 to 1.09% on December 31, 2012. Nonperforming loans were $3,014 as of December 31, 2012 and $4,711 as of December 31, 2011. The Company, however, expects to continue to see some weaknesses in its loan portfolio in 2013 and is working to minimize its losses from non-accrual and past due loans. See “Allowance for Loan Losses” for further discussion.

Noninterest Income. Total noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2012 increased $190, or 5.84%, to $3,443 from $3,253 in 2011. The Company’s principal source of noninterest income is service charges and fees on deposit accounts, particularly transaction accounts, fees on sales of mortgage loans, and commissions and fees from investment, insurance, annuity and other bank products. The increase in 2012 is primarily attributable to the following factors: mortgage loan fees increased $177, or 39.25%, for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to 2011; service charges on deposit accounts increased $37, or 2.56%, in 2012 compared to 2011 due mainly to a $21, or 2.78%, increase in non-sufficient funds (NSF) charges; and recoveries from sold other real estate owned increased $39 from 2011 as the Company sold 18 properties in 2012 compared to 16 properties in 2011. The increases in noninterest income were partially offset by a $92, or 12.90%, decrease in commissions and fees, mainly from investments sales and service charges on loan accounts which decreased by $8 in 2012 compared to 2011.

Total noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2011 increased $119, or 3.80%, to $3,253 from $3,134 in 2010. The increase in 2011 is primarily attributable to the following factors. Commissions and fees increased $189 for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to 2010, and were mainly derived from investment sales. Service charges on loan accounts increased by $11 due to slightly higher loan volume in 2011 compared with 2010. Recoveries from sold other real estate owned increased $134 from 2010 as the Company sold 16 properties in 2011 compared to 5 properties in 2010. The increases in noninterest income were partially offset by a $55 or 3.67% decreases in service charges on deposit accounts and a $120 or 21.02% decrease in mortgage loan fees.

Noninterest Expense. Total noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2012 increased $366, or 3.17%, to $11,910 from $11,544 in 2011. The increase in noninterest expense is primarily due to a $376, or 293.76%, increase in other losses attributable to sales of foreclosed property (OREO). Cost of foreclosures increased $37 or 27.82%. Advertising increased $87 or 84.47% as more emphasis was focused on television, radio and internet advertising. Office supplies and printing increased $26 or 12.21%, due to computer and tablet purchases. The increase in noninterest expense was partially offset by a $141, or 2.25%, decrease in salaries and employee benefits as retirement expense decreased $107 or 18.87%. Additionally, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) premiums decreased a $105, or 25.42%, and furniture and equipment expense decreased $38, or 3.59%.

Total noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2011 increased $507, or 4.59%, to $11,544 from $11,037 in 2010. The increase in noninterest expense is primarily attributable to a $222 increase in retirement plan expense included in the $295, or 4.94%, increase in salary and benefits. Costs and losses attributed to foreclosed properties increased $123 and debit card losses increased $51. Furniture and Equipment increased $58 due to repairs. The increase in noninterest expense was partially offset by an $88, or 17.56%, decrease in FDIC premiums, a $64, or 23.10%, decrease in office supplies, a $32, or 4.32%, decrease in occupancy expense and a $19, or 15.57%, decrease in advertising expense.

Income Tax Expense. Applicable income taxes on 2012 earnings amounted to $619, resulting in an effective tax rate of 31.63% compared to $510, or 32.42%, in 2011. The effective tax rate for 2012 is a function of the effects of interest earned on tax-exempt securities and income earned from bank-owned life insurance.

Applicable income taxes on 2011 earnings amounted to $510, resulting in an effective tax rate of 32.42% compared to $308, or 30.95%, in 2010. The effective tax rate for 2011 is a function of the higher net income earned in 2011 than in 2010 and the effects of interest earned on tax-exempt securities.

Liquidity and Asset/Liability Management

Effective asset/liability management includes maintaining adequate liquidity and minimizing the impact of future interest rate changes on net interest income. The responsibility for monitoring the Company’s liquidity and the sensitivity of its interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities lies with the Investment Committee of the Bank which meets at least quarterly to review liquidity and the adequacy of funding sources.

Cash Flows. The Company derives cash flows from its operating, investing and financing activities. Cash flows of the Company are primarily used to fund loans and purchase securities and are provided by the deposits and borrowings of the Company.

The Company’s operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2012 resulted in net cash provided from operating activities of $3,647 compared to net cash provided from operating activities of $4,127 in 2011, a decrease of $480, or 11.63%. This decrease is primarily attributable to cash received from net interest income of $11,672, which is $484 lower than in 2011, cash paid for noninterest expense of $11,417, which is $1,965 higher than in 2011, and cash paid for income taxes of $834 compared to cash received from income taxes of $111 in 2011. These were partially offset by cash received from noninterest income of $4,143, which was $2,915 higher than 2011. Management expects the Company to continue to provide cash from operating activities in 2013 through deposit pricing strategies and continued focus on improving the efficiency of the Company’s operations.

The Company’s cash flows from investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2012 resulted in net cash used of $10,093, compared to net cash used of $2,552 in 2011. The increase is primarily attributable to a $9,349 increase in cash used to make loans to customers and a $3,000 purchase of bank owned life insurance. The Company experienced more maturities and calls from available-for sale securities and more paydowns of maturities and sales of available-for-sale mortgage-backed securities in 2012. The Company expects a lower volume of paydowns in available-for-sale mortgage-backed securities in 2013 due to fewer mortgage-backed securities in the investment portfolio.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $4,689, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $3,439 in 2011. The increase in net cash provided is primarily attributable to a lower decrease in time deposits from 2011 to 2012 as compared to the increase from 2010 to 2011. This was partially offset by a smaller increase in demand, savings and NOW deposits from 2011 to 2012.

The Company’s operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2011 resulted in net cash provided from operating activities of $4,127 compared to net cash provided from operating activities of $3,706 in 2010, an increase of $421. This increase is primarily attributable to cash received from net interest income of $12,156, which is $1,294 higher than in 2010. The increase in net cash provided from operating activities is also due to cash paid for noninterest expense of $9,452, which is $1,533 lower than in 2010, and from cash received from income taxes of $111 compared to cash paid for income taxes of $1,283 in 2010. These were partially offset by cash received from noninterest income of $1,228, which was $3,794 lower than 2010. Management expects continued increases in the Company’s cash provided by operating activities through deposit pricing strategies and continued focus on improving the efficiency of the Company’s operations.

The Company’s cash flows from investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2011 resulted in net cash used of $2,552, compared to net cash used of $7,993 in 2010. The decrease is primarily attributable to a $3,223 increase in cash used to make loans to customers. The Company experienced more maturities and calls from available-for sale securities and more paydowns of maturities and sales of available-for-sale mortgage-backed securities in 2011. The Company expects a lower volume of paydowns in available-for-sale mortgage-backed securities in 2012 due to fewer mortgage-backed securities in the investment portfolio.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $3,439, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $4,760 in 2010. The decrease in net cash provided is primarily attributable to an accelerated decrease in time deposits from 2010 to 2011 as compared to the change from 2009 to 2010. This was partially offset by net increases in demand, savings and NOW deposits from 2010 to 2011.

Liquidity. Liquidity measures the ability of the Company to meet its maturing obligations and existing commitments, to withstand fluctuations in deposit levels, to fund its operations, and to provide for customers’ credit needs. Liquidity represents an institution’s ability to meet present and future financial obligations through either the sale or maturity of existing assets or the acquisition of additional funds from alternative funding sources.

The Company’s liquidity is provided by cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, investments available-for-sale, managing investment maturities, interest-earning deposits in other financial institutions and loan repayments. The Company’s ratio of liquid assets to deposits and short-term borrowings was 15.30% as of December 31, 2012 as compared to 17.33% as of December 31, 2011. The Company sells excess funds as overnight federal funds sold to provide an immediate source of liquidity. Federal funds sold at December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $0 as funds were kept in the Company’s Federal Reserve account, which is interest-bearing. Cash and due from banks of $35,790, which includes funds in the Company’s Federal Reserve account, as of December 31, 2012 was $1,757 lower when compared to December 31, 2011. The Company expects to deploy some of this cash into securities and loans in 2013.

The level of deposits may fluctuate significantly due to seasonal business cycles of depository customers. Levels of deposits are also affected by convenience of branch locations and ATMs to the customer, the rates offered on interest-bearing deposits and the attractiveness of noninterest-bearing deposit offerings compared with the competition. Similarly, the level of demand for loans may vary significantly and at any given time may increase or decrease substantially. However, unlike the level of deposits, management has more direct control over lending activities and maintains the level of those activities according to the amounts of available funds. Loan demand may be affected by the overall health of the local economy, loan rates compared with the competition and other loan features offered by the Company.

As a result of the Company’s management of liquid assets and its ability to generate liquidity through alternative funding sources, management believes that the Company maintains overall liquidity that is sufficient to satisfy its depositors’ requirements and to meet customers’ credit needs. Additional sources of liquidity available to the Company include its capacity to borrow funds through correspondent banks and the Federal Home Loan Bank. The total amount available for borrowing to the Company for liquidity purposes was $65,210 on December 31, 2012.

The Company obtains sources of funds through growth in deposits, scheduled payments and prepayments from the loan and investment portfolios and retained earnings growth, and may purchase or borrow funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank or through the Federal Reserve’s discount window. The Company also has sources of liquidity through three correspondent banking relationships. The Company uses its funds to fund loan and investment growth. Excess funds are sold daily to other institutions. The Company also has a $5,000 holding company line of credit with a correspondent bank for bank capital purposes with an outstanding balance of $1,900 on December 31, 2012 and $2,000 on December 31, 2011.

Contractual Obligations

The Company has entered into certain contractual obligations including long-term debt and operating leases. The table does not include deposit liabilities entered into in the ordinary course of banking. Operating Leases include leases of our Amherst, Timberlake and Wyndhurst facilities. Also included are contractual leases for offsite ATMs and postage machinery. The following table summarizes the Company’s contractual obligations as of December 31, 2012.

Interest Rates

While no single measure can completely identify the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income, one gauge of interest rate sensitivity is to measure, over a variety of time periods, the differences in the amounts of the Company’s rate-sensitive assets and rate-sensitive liabilities. These differences or “gaps” provide an indication of the extent to which net interest income may be affected by future changes in interest rates. A “positive gap” exists when rate-sensitive assets exceed rate-sensitive liabilities and indicates that a greater volume of assets than liabilities will reprice during a given period. This mismatch may enhance earnings in a rising interest rate environment and may inhibit earnings in a declining interest rate environment. Conversely, when rate-sensitive liabilities exceed rate-sensitive assets, referred to as a “negative gap,” it indicates that a greater volume of liabilities than assets will reprice during the period. In this case, a rising interest rate environment may inhibit earnings and a declining interest rate environment may enhance earnings. The cumulative one-year gap as of December 31, 2012 was $38,688, representing 11.10% of total assets. This positive gap falls within the parameters set by the Company.

The following table illustrates the Company’s interest rate sensitivity gap position at December 31, 2012.

Cumulative interest rate sensitivity gap

   $ 38,688         (9,015     21,065         45,641   

As of December 31, 2012, the Company was asset-sensitive in all periods up to 15 years except the 1-3 year period. The foregoing table does not necessarily indicate the impact of general interest rate movements on the Company’s net interest yield, because the repricing of various categories of assets and liabilities is discretionary and is subject to competition and other pressures. As a result, various assets and liabilities indicated as repricing within the same period may reprice at different times and at different rate levels. Management attempts to mitigate the impact of changing interest rates in several ways, one of which is to manage its interest rate-sensitivity gap. In addition to managing its asset/liability position, the Company has taken steps to mitigate the impact of changing interest rates by generating noninterest income through service charges, and offering products that are not interest rate-sensitive.

Effects of Inflation

The effect of changing prices on financial institutions is typically different from other industries as the Company’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Interest rates are significantly impacted by inflation, but neither the timing nor the magnitude of the changes is directly related to price level indices. Impacts of inflation on interest rates, loan demand and deposits are not reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

Investment Portfolio

The Company’s investment portfolio is used primarily for investment income and secondarily for liquidity purposes. The Company invests funds not used for capital expenditures or lending purposes in securities of the U.S. Government and its agencies, mortgage-backed securities, taxable and tax-exempt municipal bonds, corporate securities or certificates of deposit. Obligations of the U.S. Government and its agencies include treasury notes and callable or noncallable agency bonds. The mortgage-backed securities include mortgage-backed security pools that are diverse as to interest rates. The Company has not invested in derivatives.

Investment securities available-for-sale as of December 31, 2012 totaled $15,246, a decrease of $3,534 or 18.82% from $18,780 as of December 31, 2011. Investment securities held-to-maturity increased to $6,960 as of December 31, 2012 from $5,989 as of December 31, 2011, an increase of $971 or 16.21%. Available-for-sale securities decreased in 2012 as calls and pay downs were not fully used to buy additional bonds but were utilized to fund loan growth. Held-to-maturity securities increased in 2012 as the Company purchased taxable and tax-exempt bonds in 2012 which are normally classified as held-to-maturity.

The following table presents the composition of the Company’s investment portfolios as of the dates indicated.

Loan Portfolio

The Company’s net loans were $273,672 as of December 31, 2012, an increase of $6,549, or 2.45%, from $267,123 as of December 31, 2011. This increase resulted primarily from an increased volume of commercial loan originations during 2012. The Company’s ratio of net loans to total deposits was 86.84% as of December 31, 2012 compared to 86.06% as of December 31, 2011.

Typically, the Company maintains a ratio of loans to deposits of between 80% and 100%. The loan portfolio primarily consists of commercial, real estate (including real estate term loans, construction loans and other loans secured by real estate), and loans to individuals for household, family and other consumer expenditures. However, the Company adjusts its mix of lending and the terms of its loan programs according to market conditions and other factors. The Company’s loans are typically made to businesses and individuals located within the Company’s market area, most of whom have account relationships with the Bank. There is no concentration of loans exceeding 10% of total loans that is not disclosed in the categories presented below. The Company has not made any loans to any foreign entities including governments, banks, businesses or individuals. Commercial and construction loans in the Company’s portfolio are primarily variable rate loans and have little interest rate risk.

The Company had no option adjustable rate mortgages, subprime loans or loans with teaser rates and similar products as of December 31, 2012. Junior lien mortgages totaled $23,022 as of December 31, 2012 with a specific allowance for loan loss calculation of $217. The Company had interest only loans totaling $12,331 as of December 31, 2012. Residential mortgage loans with a loan to collateral value ratio exceeding 100% were $2,727 as of December 31, 2012.

Commercial and Industrial Loans. Commercial and industrial loans accounted for 10.11% of the Company’s gross loan portfolio as of December 31, 2012 compared to 8.02% as of December 31, 2011. Such loans are generally made to provide operating lines of credit, to finance the purchase of inventory or equipment, and for other business purposes. Commercial loans are primarily made at rates that adjust with changes in the prevailing prime interest rate, are generally made for a maximum term of five years (unless they are term loans), and generally require interest payments to be made monthly. The creditworthiness of these borrowers is reviewed, analyzed and evaluated on a periodic basis. Most commercial loans are collateralized with business assets such as accounts receivable, inventory and equipment. Even with substantial collateralization such as all of the assets of the business and personal guarantees, commercial lending involves considerable risk of loss in the event of a business downturn or failure of the business.

Real Estate Loans. Real estate loans accounted for 72.50% of the Company’s gross loan portfolio as of December 31, 2012 compared to 74.58% as of December 31, 2011. The Company makes commercial real estate term loans that are typically secured by a first deed of trust.

As of December 31, 2012, 57.10% of the real estate loans were secured by 1-4 family residential properties. Of these 1-4 family residential property loans, 8.37% were construction loans, 32.14% were home equity lines of credit, 55.67% were closed end loans secured by a first deed of trust and 3.82% were closed end loans secured by a second deed of trust.

As of December 31, 2012, 42.90% of the real estate loans were secured by commercial real estate. Of the total commercial real estate loans as of December 31, 2012, 28.98% were acquisition and development loans, 12.06% were secured by farmland, 42.91% were secured by owner occupied commercial real estate and 16.05% were secured by non-owner occupied commercial real estate, typically 1st and 2nd deeds of trust.

Real estate lending involves risk elements when there is lack of timely payment and/or a decline in the value of the collateral. Both commercial and residential real estate values in the Company’s market improved slightly in 2012. The Company is still seeing evidence of some borrowers being strained in their ability to service loans although this improved in 2012. These factors along with a slightly improved local economy have resulted in a lower number of net chargeoffs in 2012. The Company continuously monitors the local real estate market for signs of weakness that could decrease collateral values.

Installment Loans. Installment loans are represented by loans to individuals for household, family and other consumer expenditures with typical collateral such as automobile titles. Installment loans accounted for 17.39% of the Company’s loan portfolio as of December 31, 2012 compared to 17.31% as of December 31, 2011.

Loan Modifications and Troubled Debt Restructurings. The Company had three restructured loans totaling $1,756 at December 31, 2012 and had four restructured loans totaling $3,766 at December 31, 2011.

The Company offers a variety of modifications to borrowers. The modification categories offered can generally be described in the following categories.

Rate Modification is a modification in which the interest rate is changed.

Term Modification is a modification in which the maturity date, timing of payments or frequency of payments is changed.

Interest Only Modification is a modification in which the loan is converted to interest only payments for a period of time.

Payment Modification is a modification in which the dollar amount of the payment is changed, other than an interest only modification described above.

Combination Modification is any other type of modification, including the use of multiple categories above.

There were no available commitments for troubled debt restructurings outstanding as of December 31, 2012 or December 31, 2011.

Nonperforming Assets. Interest on loans is normally accrued from the date a disbursement is made and recognized as income as it is earned. Generally, the Company reviews any loan on which payment has not been made for 90 days for potential nonaccrual. The loan is examined and the collateral is reviewed to determine loss potential. If the loan is placed on nonaccrual status, any prior accrued interest that remains unpaid is reversed. Loans on nonaccrual status amounted to $2,843, $4,708 and $7,073 as of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Interest income that would have been earned on nonaccrual loans if they had been current in accordance with their original terms and the recorded interest that was included in income on these loans was not significant for 2012, 2011 or 2010. There were no commitments to lend additional funds to customers whose loans were on nonaccrual status at December 31, 2012. Sixteen foreclosed properties totaling $2,393 were on hand as of December 31, 2012 compared to eight properties totaling $645 as of December 31, 2011 and five properties totaling $474 as of 2010.

The recession that began in 2008 and subsequent economic conditions have led to an elevated level in the Company’s nonperforming assets over the last three years. Some commercial borrowers have struggled to service their loans due to the difficult business climate, lower revenues, tightening of credit markets and difficulties in

 

21


moving their products. Some noncommercial borrowers have experienced job losses and other economic challenges, as well. The Company expects nonperforming assets to decrease in 2013 as the local economy continues to recover. The Company will continue to monitor the situation and take steps necessary to mitigate losses in its loan portfolio, such as increased early monitoring of its portfolio to identify “problem” credits and continued counseling of customers to discuss options available to them. The following table presents information with respect to the Company’s nonperforming assets and nonaccruing loans 90 days or more past due by type as of the dates indicated.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses which it considers adequate to cover the risk of losses in the loan portfolio. The allowance is based upon management’s ongoing evaluation of the quality of the loan portfolio, total outstanding and committed loans, previous charges against the allowance and current and anticipated economic conditions. The allowance is also subject to regulatory examinations and determinations as to adequacy, which may take into account such factors as the methodology used to calculate the allowance. The Company’s management believes that as of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the allowance was adequate. The amount of the provision for loan losses is a charge against earnings. Actual loan losses are charged against the allowance for loan losses.

Management evaluates the reasonableness of the allowance for loan losses on a monthly basis and adjusts the provision as deemed necessary in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, as well as industry standards. Management uses historical loss data by loan type as well as current economic factors in its calculation of allowance for loan loss. Management also uses qualitative factors such as changes in lending policies and procedures, changes in national and local economies, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, changes in experience of lenders and the loan department, changes in volume and severity of past due and classified loans, changes in quality of the Bank’s loan review system, the existence and effect of concentrations of credit and external factors such as competition and regulation in its allowance for loan loss calculation. Each qualitative factor is evaluated and applied to each type of loan in the Company’s portfolio and a percentage of each loan is reserved as allowance. A percentage of each loan is also reserved according to the loan type’s historical loss data. Larger percentages of allowance are taken as the risk for a loan is determined to be greater. As of December 31, 2012, the allowance for loan losses totaled $3,646, or 1.31%, of total loans, net of unearned income and fees, compared to $4,015, or 1.48%, of total loans, net of unearned income and fees, as of December 31, 2011. The provision for loan losses for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $1,177 and $2,227, respectively. Net charge-offs for the Company were $1,546 and $2,249 for the years ended

 

22


December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The ratio of net loan charge-offs during the period to average loans outstanding for the period was 0.57% and 0.84% for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

As of December 31, 2011, the allowance for loan losses totaled $4,015 or 1.48% of total loans, net of unearned income and fees compared to $4,037 or 1.50% of total loans, net of unearned income and fees as of December 31, 2010. The provision for loan losses for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $2,227 and $1,878, respectively. Net charge-offs for the Company were $2,249 and $1,564 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The ratio of net loan charge-offs during the period to average loans outstanding for the period was 0.84% and 0.59% for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The primary risk elements considered by management with respect to each installment and conventional real estate loan are lack of timely payment and the value of the collateral. The primary risk elements with respect to real estate construction loans are fluctuations in real estate values in the Company’s market areas, inaccurate estimates of construction costs, fluctuations in interest rates, the availability of conventional financing, the demand for housing in the Company’s market area and general economic conditions. The primary risk elements with respect to commercial loans are the financial condition of the borrower, general economic conditions in the Company’s market area, the sufficiency of collateral, the timeliness of payment and, with respect to adjustable rate loans, interest rate fluctuations. Management has a policy of requesting and reviewing annual financial statements from its commercial loan customers and periodically reviews the existence of collateral and its value at least annually. Management also has a reporting system that monitors all past due loans and has adopted policies to pursue its creditor’s rights in order to preserve the Company’s position. Management also recognizes the real estate values may decline in the Company’s markets and is diligently monitoring appraisal values at least annually.

 

23


Loans are charged against the allowance when, in management’s opinion, they are deemed uncollectible, although the Company continues to aggressively pursue collection. The Company considers a number of factors to determine the need for and timing of charge-offs including the following: whenever any commercial loan becomes past due for 120 days for any scheduled principal or interest payment and collection is considered uncollectible; whenever foreclosure on real estate collateral or liquidation of other collateral does not result in full payment of the obligation and the deficiency or some portion thereof is deemed uncollectible, the uncollectible portion is charged-off; whenever any installment loan becomes past due for 120 days and collection is considered unlikely; whenever any repossessed vehicle remains unsold for 60 days after repossession; whenever a bankruptcy notice is received on any installment loan and review of the facts results in an assessment that all or most of the balance will not be collected, the loan will be placed in non-accrual status; whenever a bankruptcy notice is received on a small, unsecured, revolving installment account; and whenever any other small, unsecured, revolving installment account becomes past due for 180 days.

Although management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb losses as they arise, there can be no assurance that (i) the Company will not sustain losses in any given period which could be substantial in relation to the size of the allowance for loan losses, (ii) the Company’s level of nonperforming loans will not increase, (iii) the Company will not be required to make significant additional provisions to its allowance for loan losses, or (iv) the level of net charge-offs will not increase and possibly exceed applicable reserves.

The following table presents the allocation of the allowance for loan losses as of the dates indicated. Notwithstanding these allocations, the entire allowance for loan losses is available to absorb charge-offs in any category of loans.

While consumer related charge-offs represent many of the charge-offs over the last three years, they are of a relatively low dollar amount on an individual loan basis. Commercial and real estate loans on the other hand, though relatively few in terms of the number of charge-offs over the past three years, have the potential to greatly impact the allowance if a particular loan defaults. Bank management uses the principles of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) topic Receivables, when determining the allocation of allowance for loan losses between loan categories. The determination of a loan category’s allowance is based on the probability of a loan’s default and the probability of loss in the event of a default.

Credit Risk Management

The risk of nonpayment of loans is an inherent aspect of commercial banking. The degree of perceived risk is taken into account in establishing the structure of, and interest rates and security for, specific loans and various types of loans. The Company strives to minimize its credit risk exposure by its credit underwriting standards and

 

24


loan policies and procedures. Management continually evaluates the credit risks of its loans and believes it has provided adequately for the credit risks associated with these loans. The Company has implemented and expects to continue to implement and update new policies and procedures to maintain its credit risk management systems.

Bank Premises and Equipment

Bank premises and equipment decreased 3.43% in 2012 due to normal depreciation and no major purchases compared to a decrease of 5.70% in 2011, due also to normal depreciation and no major purchases. The Company is leasing the Timberlake and Amherst branch facilities. In early 2008, the Company began leasing a building in the Wyndhurst section of Lynchburg for administrative and training purposes. In April 2012, the Company’s Vista branch facility was destroyed by fire. Most all of the Bank premises and equipment were fully depreciated and a majority of the cost to rebuild the fire is covered by the Company’s insurance policy. The bank is currently operating the branch out of a temporary facility. The Company expects construction on the new Vista facility to be completed by May 2013.

Deposits

Average deposits were $311,805 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $2,702 or 0.87% from $309,103 of average deposits for the year ended December 31, 2011. As of December 31, 2012, total deposits were $315,157 representing an increase of $4,764, or 1.53%, from $310,393 in total deposits as of December 31, 2011. The change in deposits during 2012 was primarily due to increased deposit balances in previously existing deposit accounts, new deposit accounts opened as a result of new banking relationships, growth at the Company’s newer branch locations, competitive pricing of the Company’s products and services and the continued success of our KaChing! Rewards checking product.

For the year ended December 31, 2012, average demand deposits were $35,544, or 11.40%, of average deposits. For the year ended December 31, 2011, average demand deposits were $31,522, or 10.20%, of average deposits. Average interest-bearing deposits were $276,261 for the year ended December 31, 2012, representing a decrease of $1,320, or 0.48%, over the $277,581 in average interest-bearing deposits for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The levels of demand deposits (including retail accounts) are influenced by such factors as customer service, service charges and the availability of banking services. No assurance can be given that the Company will be able to maintain its current level of demand deposits. Competition from other banks, credit unions and thrift institutions as well as money market funds, some of which offer interest rates substantially higher than the Company, makes it difficult for the Company to maintain the current level of demand deposits. Management continually works to implement pricing and marketing strategies designed to control the cost of interest-bearing deposits and to maintain a stable deposit mix.

Capital Resources

The Company’s financial position at December 31, 2012 reflects liquidity and capital levels currently adequate to fund anticipated funding needs and budgeted growth of the Company. Capital ratios are in excess of required regulatory minimums for a “well-capitalized” institution. The assessment of capital adequacy depends on a number of factors such as asset quality, liquidity, earnings performance, and changing competitive conditions and economic forces. The adequacy of the Company’s capital is reviewed by management on an ongoing basis. Management seeks to maintain a capital structure that will assure an adequate level of capital to support anticipated asset growth and to absorb potential losses.

The primary indicators relied on by bank regulators in measuring the capital position are the Tier 1 capital, total risk-based capital and leverage ratios. Tier 1 capital consists generally of common and qualifying preferred stockholders’ equity less goodwill. Total capital generally consists of Tier 1 capital, qualifying subordinated debt and a portion of the allowance for loan losses. Risk-based capital ratios are calculated with reference to risk-

 

26


weighted assets. The Company’s Tier 1 capital ratio was 10.15% at December 31, 2012 and 9.99% at December 31, 2011. The total capital ratio was 11.39% at December 31, 2012 and 11.24% at December 31, 2011.

These ratios exceed the mandated minimum requirements of 4% and 8%, respectively. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company and Bank met all regulatory capital ratio requirements and were considered “well capitalized” in accordance with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act.

Stockholders’ equity was $28,089 at December 31, 2012 compared to $26,947 at December 31, 2011.

The leverage ratio consists of Tier 1 capital divided by quarterly average assets. At December 31, 2012, the Company’s leverage ratio was 8.49% compared to 8.12% at December 31, 2011. Each of these leverage ratios exceeds the required minimum leverage ratio of 4%. The dividend payout ratio was 5.61% and 0.00% in 2012 and 2011, respectively, with the increase due to a $0.05 per share dividend paid in the fourth quarter of 2012. The Company paid no dividends in 2011 as the Company held retained earnings to build and further improve capital levels.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company did not use any interest rate ceiling, floor or interest rate swap financial derivatives during 2012 and 2011. However, the Company, as a normal business practice in 2012, has mortgage rate lock commitments that are subsequently funded by the Company. The Company then sells the mortgage loan to a secondary market bank that had underwritten the mortgage loan before the Company funded the loan. The secondary market bank pays a fee that was agreed upon on the lock commitment date to the Company and buys the loan within five days of the initial funding by the Company. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had $3,002 in lock commitments that had not yet been funded with agreed upon fees of $49 to be paid to the Company after the loan was purchased by the secondary market bank. Also, the Company has off-balance sheet arrangements that may have a material effect on the results of operations in the future. The Company, in the normal course of business, may at times be a party to financial instruments such as standby letters of credit. Standby letters of credit as of December 31, 2012 equaled $2,475 compared with $963 as of December 31, 2011. Other commitments include commitments to lend money. Not all of these commitments will be acted upon; therefore, the cash requirements will likely be significantly less than the commitments themselves. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had unused loan commitments of $60,168 including $28,403 in unused commitments with an original maturity exceeding one year compared with $54,161 including $28,696 in unused commitments with an original maturity exceeding one year as of December 31, 2011. See Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The reporting policies of the Company are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Certain critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s single most critical accounting policy relates to the Company’s allowance for loan losses, which reflects the estimated losses resulting from the inability of the Company’s borrowers to make required loan payments. If the financial condition of the Company’s borrowers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, the Company’s estimates would be updated, and additional provisions for loan losses may be required. Further discussion of the estimates used in determining the allowance for loan losses is contained in the discussion on “Allowance for Loan Losses” on page 22 and “Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses” in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

For a discussion of recently adopted accounting pronouncements and recently issued pronouncements which are not yet effective and the impact, if any, on our financial statements, see Note 1(u), “Current Accounting Developments” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report.

PINNACLE BANKSHARES CORPORATION

AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(In thousands, except ratios, share and per share data)

 

(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices

Pinnacle Bankshares Corporation, a Virginia corporation (Bankshares), was organized in 1997 and is registered as a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. Bankshares is headquartered in Altavista, Virginia. Bankshares conducts all of its business activities through the branch offices of its wholly owned subsidiary bank, First National Bank (the Bank). Bankshares exists primarily for the purpose of holding the stock of its subsidiary, the Bank, and of such other subsidiaries as it may acquire or establish. The Company has a single reportable segment for purposes of segment reporting.

The accounting and reporting policies of Bankshares and its wholly owned subsidiary (collectively, the Company), conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and general practices within the banking industry. The following is a summary of the more significant accounting policies and practices:

 

  (a) Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bankshares and the Bank. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

  (b) Securities

The Company classifies its securities in three categories: (1) debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as “held-to-maturity securities” and reported at amortized cost; (2) debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as “trading securities” and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in net income; and (3) debt and equity securities not classified as either held-to-maturity securities or trading securities are classified as “available-for-sale securities” and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from net income and reported in accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders’ equity, net of deferred taxes. Fair value is determined from quoted prices obtained and reviewed by management. Held-to-maturity securities are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts on a basis, which approximates the level yield method. As of December 31, 2012, the Company does not maintain trading securities. Gains or losses on disposition are based on the net proceeds and adjusted carrying values of the securities called or sold, using the specific identification method on a trade date basis.

The Company assesses other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) or permanent impairment based upon whether it intends to sell a security or if it is likely that it would be required to sell the security before recovery of the amortized cost basis of the investment, which may be maturity. For debt securities, if the Company intends to sell the security or it is likely that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovering its cost basis, the entire impairment loss would be recognized in earnings as an OTTI. If the Company does not intend to sell the security and it is not likely that the Company will be required to sell the security but we do not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security, only the portion of the impairment loss representing credit losses would be recognized in earnings. The credit loss on a security is measured as the difference between the amortized cost basis and the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected. Projected cash flows are discounted by the original or current effective interest rate depending on the nature of the security being measured for potential OTTI. The remaining impairment related to all other factors, the difference between the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected and fair value, is recognized as a charge to other comprehensive income (OCI). Impairment losses related to all other factors are presented as separate categories within OCI. For investment securities

 

33


held to maturity, this amount is accreted over the remaining life of the debt security prospectively based on the amount and timing of future estimated cash flows. The accretion of the amount recorded in OCI increases the carrying value of the investment and does not affect earnings. If there is an indication of additional credit losses the security is re-evaluated according to the procedures described above

 

  (c) Restricted Equity Investments

As a member of the Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) and the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Atlanta, the Company is required to maintain certain minimum investments in the common stock of the FRB and FHLB, which are carried at cost. Required levels of investment are based upon the Company’s capital and a percentage of qualifying assets.

In addition, the Company is eligible to borrow from the FHLB with borrowings collateralized by qualifying assets, primarily residential mortgage loans, and the Company’s capital stock investment in the FHLB.

Management’s determination of whether these investments are impaired is based on its assessment of the ultimate recoverability of cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of any decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB, (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, the customer base of the FHLB, and (4) the liquidity position of the FHLB.

 

  (d) Borrowings

At December 31, 2012, the Company’s available borrowing limit with the FHLB was approximately $45,010. The Company had $0 in borrowings from the FHLB outstanding at December 31, 2012 and 2011. The Company also has a $5,000 line of credit secured by the authorized capital stock of the Company with a corresponding bank with $1,900 outstanding as of December 31, 2012 and $2,000 outstanding as of December 31, 2011 with a 5.00% interest rate that matures on June 30, 2017.

 

  (e) Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses

Loans are stated at the amount of unpaid principal, reduced by unearned income and fees on loans, and an allowance for loan losses. Income is recognized over the terms of the loans using methods that approximate the level yield method. The allowance for loan losses is a cumulative valuation allowance consisting of an annual provision for loan losses, plus any amounts recovered on loans previously charged off, minus loans charged off. The provision for loan losses charged to operating expenses is the amount necessary in management’s judgment to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level it believes adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance based upon reviews of individual credits, recent loss experience, delinquencies, current economic conditions, the risk characteristics of the various categories of loans and other pertinent factors. Management uses historical loss data by loan type as well as current economic factors in its calculation of allowance for loan loss. Management also uses qualitative factors such as changes in lending policies and procedures, changes in national and local economies, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, changes in experience of lenders and the loan department, changes in volume and severity of past due and classified loans, changes in quality of the Company’s loan review system, the existence and effect of concentrations of credit and external factors such as competition and regulation in its allowance for loan loss calculation. Each qualitative factor is evaluated and applied to each type of loan in the Company’s portfolio and a percentage of each loan is reserved as allowance. A percentage of each loan type is also reserved according to the loan type’s historical loss data. Larger percentages of allowance are taken as the risk for a loan is determined to be greater. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes the collectability of the principal is uncollectible. While

 

34


management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions or the Company’s recent loss experience. It is reasonably possible that management’s estimate of loan losses and the related allowance may change materially in the near term. However, the amount of change that is reasonably possible cannot be estimated. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examinations.

Loans are charged against the allowance when, in management’s opinion, they are deemed doubtful, although the Company continues to aggressively pursue collection. The Company considers a number of factors to determine the need for and timing of charge-offs including the following: whenever any commercial loan becomes past due for 120 days for any scheduled principal or interest payment and collection is considered uncollectible; whenever foreclosure on real estate collateral or liquidation of other collateral does not result in full payment of the obligation and the deficiency or some portion thereof is deemed uncollectible, the uncollectible portion shall be charged-off; whenever any installment loan becomes past due for 120 days and collection is considered unlikely; whenever any repossessed vehicle remains unsold for 60 days after repossession; whenever a bankruptcy notice is received on any installment loan and review of the facts results in an assessment that all or most of the balance will not be collected, the loan will be placed in non-accrual status; whenever a bankruptcy notice is received on a small, unsecured, revolving installment account; and whenever any other small, unsecured, revolving installment account becomes past due for 180 days.

Loans are generally placed in non-accrual status when the collection of principal and interest is 90 days or more past due, unless the obligation relates to a consumer or residential real estate loan or is both well-secured and in the process of collection. All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Generally, loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured, which usually requires a minimum of six months of sustained repayment performance.

Impaired loans are required to be presented in the financial statements at net realizable value of the expected future cash flows or at the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Homogeneous loans such as real estate mortgage loans, individual consumer loans and home equity loans are evaluated collectively for impairment. Management, considering current information and events regarding the borrower’s ability to repay their obligations, considers a loan to be impaired when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impairment losses are included in the allowance for loan losses through a charge to the provision for loan losses. Cash receipts on impaired loans receivable are applied first to reduce interest on such loans to the extent of interest contractually due and any remaining amounts are applied to principal.

 

  (f) Loan Origination and Commitment Fees and Certain Related Direct Costs

Loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct loan origination costs charged by the Company are deferred and the net amount amortized as an adjustment of the related loan’s yield. The Company amortizes these net amounts over the contractual life of the related loans or, in the case of demand loans, over the estimated life. Fees related to standby letters of credit are recognized over the commitment period.

 

  (g) Bank Premises and Equipment

Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line and declining-balance methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Depreciable lives include 15 years for land improvements, 40 years for buildings, and 3 to 7 years for equipment, furniture and fixtures. The cost of assets retired and sold and the related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and the resulting gains or losses are

 

35


included in determining net income. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and improvements and betterments are capitalized.

 

  (h) Goodwill

The Company performs a goodwill impairment analysis on an annual basis as of December 31. Additionally, the Company performs a goodwill impairment evaluation on an interim basis when events or circumstances indicate impairment potentially exists. The Company performed goodwill impairment testing in the fourth quarter of 2012 because Bankshares’ common stock had been trading below book value per share in 2012. Management determined that no goodwill impairment charge was required because the fair value of the Company was not less than the Company’s carrying value. Management will continue to monitor the relationship of Bankshares’ market capitalization to both its book value and tangible book value, which management attributes to both financial services industry-wide and Company-specific factors, and to evaluate the carrying value of goodwill.

While management has a plan to return the Company’s business fundamentals to levels that support Bankshares’ common stock trading at or above book value per common share, there is no assurance that the plan will be successful, or that the market price of the common stock will increase to such levels in the foreseeable future. If Bankshares’ common stock price continues to trade below book value per common share, the Company may have to recognize an impairment of all, or some portion of, its goodwill.

 

  (i) Foreclosed Assets

Foreclosed properties consist of properties acquired through foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure. At time of foreclosure, the properties are recorded at the fair value less costs to sell. Subsequently, these properties are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Losses from the acquisition of property in full or partial satisfaction of loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent write-downs, if any, are charged to expense. Gains and losses on the sales of foreclosed properties are included in determining net income in the year of the sale.

 

  (j) Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets

The Company’s long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used, such as bank premises and equipment, is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of, such as foreclosed properties, are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

 

  (k) Pension Plan

The Company maintains a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan, which covers substantially all of its employees. The net periodic pension expense includes a service cost component, interest on the projected benefit obligation, a component reflecting the actual return on plan assets, the effect of deferring and amortizing certain actuarial gains and losses, and the amortization of any unrecognized net transition obligation on a straight-line basis over the average remaining service period of employees expected to receive benefits under the plan. The Company’s funding policy is to make annual contributions in amounts necessary to satisfy the Internal Revenue Service’s funding standards, to the extent that they are tax deductible.

ASC Topic 715, Defined Benefit Pension Plans requires a business entity to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a single-employer defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in comprehensive income in the year in which the changes occur. Defined Benefit Plans also requires a

 

36


business entity to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position, with limited exceptions.

 

  (l) Advertising

The Company expenses advertising expenses as incurred.

 

  (m) Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in net income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Deferred taxes are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.

 

  (n) Stock Options and Restricted Stock

The Company accounts for its stock based compensation plan under the provisions of ASC topic, Share-Based Payment which requires recognizing expense for options granted equal to the grant date fair value of the unvested amounts over their remaining vesting periods. There were 11,000 shares of restricted stock granted in 2012 compared to 1,000 shares of restricted stock granted in 2011. There were 37,250 stock options outstanding as of December 31, 2012 and 11,000 shares of restricted stock granted in 2012. Future levels of compensation cost recognized related to share-based compensation awards may be impacted by new awards and/or modification, repurchases and cancellations of existing awards after the adoption of this standard.

 

  (o) Net Income per Share

Basic net income per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company.

  (p) Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks (with original maturities of three months or less), and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are purchased and sold for one-day periods.

 

  (q) Comprehensive Income

ASC topic Comprehensive Income, requires the Company to classify items of “Other Comprehensive Income” (such as net unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities) by their nature in a financial statement and present the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section of a statement of financial position. The Company’s other comprehensive income consists of net income, and net unrealized gains (losses) on securities available-for-sale, net of income taxes, and adjustments relating to its defined benefit plan, net of income taxes.

 

  (r) Fair Value Measurements

ASC topic, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures establishes a framework for using fair value. It defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

In accordance with Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, the Company groups its financial assets and financial liabilities in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. The most significant instruments that the Company measures at fair value are available-for-sale securities. All available-for-sale securities fall into Level 2 fair value hierarchy. Valuation methodologies for the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 – Valuations are based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities traded in active exchange markets, such as the New York Stock Exchange.

 

38


Level 2 – Valuations for assets and liabilities are obtained from readily available pricing sources via independent providers for market transactions involving similar assets or liabilities, model-based valuation techniques, or other observable inputs.

Level 3 – Valuations for assets and liabilities that are derived from other valuation methodologies, including option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques, and are not based on market exchange, dealer, or broker traded transactions. Level 3 valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining fair value assigned to such assets and liabilities.

 

  (s) Use of Estimates

In preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the dates of the consolidated balance sheets and revenues and expenses for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses.

 

  (t) Bank Owned Life Insurance

The Company has purchased life insurance policies on certain key members of management. Company owned life insurance is recorded at the amount that can be realized under the insurance contract at the balance sheet date, which is the cash surrender value adjusted for other charges or other amounts due that are probable at settlement.

 

  (u) Current Accounting Developments

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The ASU requires an entity to offset, and present as a single net amount, a recognized eligible asset and a recognized eligible liability when it has an unconditional and legally enforceable right of setoff and intends either to settle the asset and liability on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. The ASU requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. The ASU is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Company does not expect this ASU, when adopted, to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On July 27, 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. No. 2012-02, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. The ASU simplifies the guidance for testing the decline in the realizable value (impairment) of indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill. The amendments allow an organization the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. An organization electing to perform a qualitative assessment is no longer required to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset unless the organization determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is “more likely than not” that the asset is impaired. Under former guidance, an organization was required to test an indefinite-lived intangible asset for impairment on at least an annual basis by comparing the fair value of the asset with its carrying amount. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim tests performed for fiscal years after September 15, 2012. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On January 31, 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-01, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. ASU 2013-01 clarifies that ordinary trade receivables and receivables are not in the scope of ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. Specifically, ASU 2011-11 applies only to derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse purchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset in accordance with specific criteria contained in

 

39


the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (Codification) or subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The FASB undertook this clarification project in response to concerns expressed by U.S. stakeholders about the standard’s broad definition of financial instruments. After the standard was finalized, companies realized that many contracts have standard commercial provisions that would equate to a master netting arrangement, significantly increasing the cost of compliance at minimal value to financial statement users. An entity is required to apply the amendments in ASU 2013-01 for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the required disclosures retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The effective date is the same as the effective date of ASU 2011-11. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements

On February 5, 2013 the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, to improve the transparency of reporting these reclassifications. Other comprehensive income includes gains and losses that are initially excluded from net income for an accounting period. Those gains and losses are later reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income into net income. The amendments in this ASU do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements. All of the information that this ASU requires already is required to be disclosed elsewhere in the financial statements under U.S. GAAP. The new amendments will require an organization to present (either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes) the effects on the line items of net income of significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income - but only if the item reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period and cross-reference to other disclosures currently required under U.S. GAAP for other reclassification items (that are not required under U.S. GAAP) to be reclassified directly to net income in their entirety in the same reporting period. This would be the case when a portion of the amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income is initially transferred to a balance sheet account (e.g., inventory for pension-related amounts) instead of directly to income or expense. The amendments apply to all public and private companies that report items of other comprehensive income. Public companies are required to comply with these amendments for all reporting periods (interim and annual). A private company is required to meet the reporting requirements of the amended paragraphs about the roll forward of accumulated other comprehensive income for both interim and annual reporting periods. However, private companies are only required to provide the information about the effect of reclassifications on line items of net income for annual reporting periods, not for interim reporting periods. The amendments are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012, for public companies and are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, for private companies. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

(2) Restrictions on Cash

To comply with Federal Reserve regulations, the Company is required to maintain certain average reserve balances. The daily average reserve requirements were approximately $2,716 and $2,694 for the weeks including December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The Company does not consider the unrealized losses other-than-temporary losses based on the volatility of the securities market price involved, the credit quality of the securities, and the Company’s ability, if necessary, to hold the securities until maturity. The securities include 3 bonds that have continuous losses for less than 12 months and no bonds that have continuous losses for more than 12 months.

In the normal course of business, the Bank has made loans to executive officers and directors. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, loans to executive officers and directors totaled $278 and $160 respectively. During 2012, new loans made to executive officers and directors totaled $118, advances totaled $38 and repayments amounted to approximately $38. Loans to companies in which executive officers and directors have an interest amounted to $698 and $781 at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. All such loans were made in the ordinary course of business on substantially the same terms and conditions, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with unrelated persons, and, in the opinion of management, do not involve more than normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features.

The Company utilizes a risk rating matrix to assign a risk grade to each of its loans. A description of the general characteristics of the risk grades is as follows:

Pass – These loans have minimal and acceptable credit risk.

Special Mention – These loans have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan at some future date.

Substandard – These loans are inadequately protected by the net worth or paying capacity of the obligor or collateral pledged, if any. Loans classified as substandard must have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses, that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. A substandard loan is characterized by the distinct probability that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful – These loans have all of the weakness inherent in one classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection liquidation in full, on the basis of the currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable.

(7) Employee Benefit Plans

The Bank maintains a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan that covers substantially all of its employees. Benefits are computed based on employees’ average final compensation and years of credited service. Pension expense amounted to approximately $456, $557 and $340 in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The change in benefit obligation, change in plan assets and funded status of the pension plan at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 and pertinent assumptions are as follows:

The Company selects the expected long-term rate-of-return-on-assets assumption in consultation with its investment advisors and actuary. This rate is intended to reflect the average rate of return expected to be earned on the funds invested or to be invested to provide plan benefits. Historical performance is reviewed – especially with respect to real rates of return (net of inflation) – for the major asset classes held or anticipated to be held by the trust, and for the trust itself. Undue weight is not given to recent experience, which may not continue over the measurement period, and higher significance is placed on current forecasts of future long-term economic conditions.

Because assets are held in a qualified trust, anticipated returns are not reduced for taxes. Further – solely for this purpose – the plan is assumed to continue in force and not terminate during the period during which assets are invested. However, consideration is given to the potential impact of current and future investment policy, cash flow into and out of the trust, and expenses (both investment and non-investment) typically paid from plan assets (to the extent such expenses are not explicitly estimated within periodic cost).

The components of net pension benefit cost under the plan for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 is summarized as follows:

 

     Pension Benefits  
     2012     2011     2010

Plan Asset Allocation

Plan assets are held in a pooled pension trust fund administered by the Virginia Bankers Association. The pooled pension trust fund is sufficiently diversified to maintain a reasonable level of risk without imprudently sacrificing return, with a targeted asset allocation of 20% fixed income and 80% equities. The Investment Manager selects investment fund managers with demonstrated experience and expertise, and funds with demonstrated historical performance, for the implementation of the pension plan’s investment strategy. The Investment Manager will consider both actively and passively managed investment strategies and will allocate funds across the asset classes to develop an efficient investment structure.

It is the responsibility of the Virginia Bankers Association to administer the investments of the pooled pension trust fund within reasonable costs, being careful to avoid sacrificing quality. These costs include, but are not limited to, management and custodial fees, consulting fees, transaction costs and other administrative costs.

The asset or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value.

Mutual funds-fixed income and equity funds: Valued at the net asset value of shares held at year-end.

Cash and equivalents: Valued at cost which approximates fair value.

The preceding methods described may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, although the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement as of December 31, 2012.

The following table presents the fair value of the assets, by asset category, at December 31, 2012 and 2011.

Contributions

The Company expects to contribute $3,000 to its pension plan in 2013 to fund our accrued pension liabilities resulting mainly from the market performance of underlying pension assets.

The Company also has a 401(k) plan under which the Company matches employee contributions to the plan. In 2012 and 2011, the Company matched 100% of the first 1% of salary deferral and 50% of the next 5% of salary deferral to the 401(k) savings provision. The amount expensed for the 401(k) plan was $111 during the year ended December 31, 2012 and $114 during the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

(8) Income Taxes

Income tax expense (benefit) attributable to income before income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 is summarized as follows:

 

     2012      2011      2010  

Current

   $ 593         230         612

Net deferred tax asset, included in other assets

   $ 1,499        1,421   
  

 

 

   

 

 

 

The Bank has determined that a valuation allowance for the gross deferred tax assets is not necessary at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, since realization of the entire gross deferred tax assets can be supported by the amounts of taxes paid during the carryback periods available under current tax laws.

The Company adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards topic, Income Taxes, on January 1, 2007 with no impact on the financial statements. The Company did not recognize any interest or penalties related to income tax during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2012. The Company does not have an accrual for uncertain tax positions as deductions taken and benefits accrued are based on widely understood administrative practices and procedures and are based on clear and unambiguous tax law. Tax returns for all years 2008 and thereafter are subject to future examination by tax authorities.

 

(9) Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include mortgage sale lock commitments, commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments may involve, to varying degrees, credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets. The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Bank has in particular classes of financial instruments.

Credit risk is defined as the possibility of sustaining a loss because the other parties to a financial instrument fail to perform in accordance with the terms of the contract. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit loss under commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

The Company requires collateral to support financial instruments when it is deemed necessary. The Bank evaluates such customers’ creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained upon extension of credit is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral may include deposits held in financial institutions, U.S. Treasury securities, other marketable securities, real estate, accounts receivable, inventory, and property, plant and equipment.

 

54


Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk:

 

     2012      2011  

Mortgage rate lock commitments

   $ 3,002         —     
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

Commitments to extend credit

   $ 60,168         54,161   
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

Standby letters of credit

   $ 2,475         963   
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may enter into mortgage rate lock commitments that are subsequently funded by the Company. The Company then sells the mortgage loan to a secondary market bank that had underwritten the mortgage loan before the Company funded the loan. The secondary market bank pays a fee that was agreed upon on the lock commitment date to the Company and buys the loan within five days of the initial funding by the Company.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including bond financing and similar transactions. Unless renewed, substantially all of the Company’s standby letters of credit commitments at December 31, 2012 will expire within one year. Management does not anticipate any material losses as a result of these transactions. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers.

 

(10) Leases

The Company leases premises and equipment under various operating lease agreements. Generally, operating leases provide for one or more renewal options on the same basis as current rental terms. Certain leases require increased rentals under cost-of-living escalation clauses. The following are future minimum lease payments as required under the agreements:

The Company entered into a lease of the Amherst branch facility with an entity in which a director of the Company has a 50% ownership interest in 2009. The original term of the lease is twenty years and may be renewed at the Company’s option for two additional terms of five years each. The Company’s current rental payment under the lease is $141 annually.

 

(11) Concentrations of Credit Risk and Contingencies

The Company grants commercial, residential and consumer loans to customers primarily in the central Virginia area. The Company has a diversified loan portfolio that is not dependent upon any particular economic sector. As a whole, the portfolio is affected by general economic conditions in the central Virginia region.

 

55


The Company’s commercial and real estate loan portfolios are diversified, with no significant concentrations of credit other than the geographic focus on the central Virginia region. The installment loan portfolio consists of consumer loans primarily for automobiles and other personal property. Overall, the Company’s loan portfolio is not concentrated within a single industry or group of industries, the loss of any one or more of which would generate a materially adverse impact on the business of the Company.

The Company has established operating policies relating to the credit process and collateral in loan originations. Loans to purchase real and personal property are generally collateralized by the related property. Credit approval is principally a function of collateral and the evaluation of the creditworthiness of the borrower based on available financial information.

At times, the Company may have cash and cash equivalents at a financial institution in excess of insured limits. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions whose credit rating is monitored by management to minimize credit risk.

In the ordinary course of business, various claims and lawsuits are brought by and against the Company. In the opinion of management, there is no pending or threatened proceeding in which an adverse decision could result in a material adverse change in the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

 

(12) Dividend Restrictions and Capital Requirements

Bankshares’ principal source of funds for dividend payments is dividends received from its subsidiary Bank. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, dividends from the subsidiary Bank totaled $385 and $280, respectively.

Substantially all of Bankshares’ retained earnings consist of undistributed earnings of its subsidiary Bank, which are restricted by various regulations administered by federal banking regulatory agencies. Under applicable federal laws, the Comptroller of the Currency restricts, without prior approval, the total dividend payments of the Bank in any calendar year to the net profits of that year, as defined, combined with the retained net profits for the two preceding years. At December 31, 2012, retained net profits of the Bank that were free of such restriction approximated $2,938.

Bankshares and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on Bankshares’ consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, Bankshares and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Bankshares and the Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require Bankshares and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2012, that Bankshares and the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

As of December 31, 2012, the most recent notification from Office of the Comptroller of the Currency categorized Bankshares and the Bank as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as “well capitalized,” Bankshares and the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed Bankshares and the Bank’s category.

(13) Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The ASC topic Fair Value Option, requires the Company to disclose estimated fair values of its financial instruments.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the approximate fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate that value.

 

  (a) Cash and Due from Banks and Federal Funds Sold

The carrying amounts are a reasonable estimate of fair value.

 

  (b) Securities

The fair value of securities is estimated based on bid prices as quoted on national exchanges or bid quotations received from securities dealers. The fair value of certain state and municipal securities is not readily available through market sources other than dealer quotations; so fair value estimates are based on quoted market prices of similar instruments, adjusted for differences between the quoted instruments and the instruments being valued.

 

57


  (c) Loans

Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as commercial, real estate - residential, real estate - other, loans to individuals and other loans. Each loan category is further segmented into fixed and adjustable rate interest terms.

The fair value of fixed rate loans is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the loan as well as estimates for prepayments. The estimate of maturity is based on the Company’s historical experience with repayments for each loan classification, modified, as required, by an estimate of the effect of current economic and lending conditions.

 

  (d) Bank Owned Life Insurance

Fair values of insurance policies owned are based on the insurance contract’s cash surrender value.

 

  (e) Deposits and Note Payable to Federal Home Loan Bank

The fair value of demand deposits, NOW accounts, and savings deposits is the amount payable on demand. The fair value of fixed maturity time deposits, certificates of deposit and the note payable to the Federal Home Loan Bank is estimated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using the rates currently offered for deposits or borrowings of similar remaining maturities.

 

  (f) Commitments to Extend Credit and Standby Letters of Credit

The only amounts recorded for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are the deferred fees arising from these unrecognized financial instruments. These deferred fees are not deemed significant at December 31, 2012 and 2011, and as such, the related fair values have not been estimated.

The carrying amounts and approximate fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows at December 31, 2012 and 2011:

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial

 

58


instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Fair value estimates are based on existing on and off-balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated funding needs and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. Significant assets that are not considered financial assets include deferred tax assets and premises and equipment and other real estate owned. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in the estimates.

 

  (g) Fair Value Methodologies

The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value.

Available-for-Sale Securities

Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available, and would in such case be included as a Level 1 asset. The Company currently carries no Level 1 securities. If quoted prices are not available, valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources from independent providers for market transactions involving similar assets or liabilities. The Company’s principal market for these securities is the secondary institutional markets, and valuations are based on observable market data in those markets. These would be classified as Level 2 assets. The Company’s entire available-for-sale securities portfolio is classified as Level 2 securities. The Company currently carries no Level 3 securities for which fair value would be determined using unobservable inputs.

Loans

The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures impairment in accordance with ASC topic, Impairment of a Loan. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, market value of a similar debt, liquidation value and discounted cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans at which fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investments in such loans. At December 31, 2012, substantially all of the impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value of the collateral. In accordance with Impairment of a Loan, impaired loans where an allowance is established based on the fair value of the collateral require classification in the fair value hierarchy. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the impaired loan as a nonrecurring Level 2 asset. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the impaired loan as a nonrecurring Level 3 asset. For substantially all of the Company‘s impaired loans as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the valuation methodology utilized by the Company was collateral based measurements such as a real estate appraisal and the discount to reflect current market conditions and ultimately collectability ranged from 0% to 25% for each of the respective periods.

 

59


Foreclosed Assets

Foreclosed assets are adjusted to fair value less estimated selling costs upon transfer of the loans to foreclosed assets. Subsequently, foreclosed assets are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value less estimated selling costs. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the foreclosed asset as a nonrecurring Level 2 asset. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the foreclosed asset as a nonrecurring Level 3 asset. For substantially all of the Company’s foreclosed assets as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the valuation methodology utilized by the Company was collateral based measurements such as a real estate appraisal and the discount to reflect current market conditions ranged from 0% to 20% for each of the respective periods.

(15) Stock-based Compensation

The Company has two incentive stock option plans. The 1997 Incentive Stock Plan (the 1997 Plan), pursuant to which the Company’s Board of Directors could grant stock options to officers and key employees, became effective as of May 1, 1997. The 1997 Plan authorized grants of options to purchase up to 50,000 shares of the Company’s authorized, but unissued common stock. Accordingly, 50,000 shares of authorized, but unissued common stock were reserved for use in the 1997 Plan. All stock options were granted with an exercise price equal to the stock’s fair market value at the date of grant. At December 31, 2012, there were no additional shares available for grant under the 1997 Plan as the plan expired on May 1, 2007.

The 2004 Incentive Stock Plan (the 2004 Plan), pursuant to which the Company’s Board of Directors may grant stock options to officers and key employees, was approved by shareholders on April 13, 2004 and became effective as of May 1, 2004. The 2004 Plan authorizes grants of options to purchase up to 100,000 shares of the Company’s authorized, but unissued common stock. Accordingly, 100,000 shares of

 

62


authorized, but unissued common stock were reserved for use in the 2004 Plan. All stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the stock’s fair market value at the date of the grant. At December 31, 2012, there were 40,000 shares available for grant under the 2004 Plan.

Stock options generally have 10-year terms, vest at the rate of 25% per year, and become fully exercisable four years from the date of grant.

During 2012 and 2011, no stock options were granted or exercised. On May 1, 2012 and 2011, 11,000 and 1,000 shares, respectively of restricted stock were granted to employees. The 2012 grants will vest on the third anniversary of the grant date. The 2011 grant will vest on the second anniversary of the grant date. On May 1, 2010, options to acquire 48,000 shares of common stock were granted to employees. Equity awards to acquire 37,500 shares were granted in the form of incentive stock options with tandem stock appreciation rights with a four year vesting period, and 10,500 shares of restricted stock that vest on the third anniversary of the grant date were granted to employees.

At December 31, 2012, options for 18,125 shares were exercisable at an exercise price of $9.00 per share.

The Company expensed $26 in 2012 in compensation expensed as a direct result of the issuance of the 45,000 incentive stock options with tandem stock appreciation rights and will recognize $13 in 2013 and $3 in 2014 in compensation expense related to unvested stock options. The fair value $3.96 per share of each option grant is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used: dividend yield of 2.065%, expected volatility of 45.61%, a risk-free interest rate of 4.63%, and expected lives of 9 years.

The Company also expensed $57 in 2012 in compensation expensed as a direct result of the granting of 10,500 shares of restricted stock in 2010, 1,000 shares of restricted stock in 2011 and 11,000 shares of restricted stock in 2012 and will recognize $45 in 2013, $35 in 2014 and $8 in 2015. The restricted stock was granted at a market price of $9.25 per share

(17) Subsequent Events

The Company has filed Forms 15 with respect to the termination of registration under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the suspension of the duty to file reports under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act. As a result, the Company expects that this annual report on Form 10-K and amendments, if any, thereto , will be the last report filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13 of the Exchange Act for the foreseeable future.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act, as amended.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2012, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Controls.

No changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

Pinnacle Bankshares Corporation

Altavista, Virginia

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Pinnacle Bankshares Corporation and subsidiary (The “Company”) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2012. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Bank’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pinnacle Bankshares Corporation and subsidiary as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2012, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Each share of Common Stock is entitled to participate equally in dividends, which are payable as and when determined by the Board of Directors after consideration of the earnings, general economic conditions, the financial condition of the business and other factors as might be appropriate. The Company’s ability to pay dividends is dependent upon its receipt of dividends from its subsidiary. Prior approval from the Comptroller of the Currency is required if the total of all dividends declared by a national bank, including the proposed dividend, in any calendar year will exceed the sum of the Bank’s net profits for that year and its retained net profits for the preceding two calendar years, less any required transfers to surplus. This limitation has not had a material impact on the Bank’s ability to declare dividends during 2012 and 2011 and is not expected to have a material impact during 2013.

As of March 1, 2013, there were approximately 355 shareholders of record of Bankshares’ Common Stock.
