Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and to the general practices within the banking industry. In management’s opinion, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements, have been included.

Certain amounts presented in the consolidated financial statements of prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current year presentations. The reclassifications had no effect on net income, net income per share, or shareholders’ equity as previously reported.

All dollar amounts included in the tables in these notes are in thousands, except per share data, unless otherwise stated.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. The amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements may be affected by those estimates and assumptions. Actual results may vary from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the measurement of fair value of foreclosed real estate, deferred income taxes, impairment testing of goodwill, projected pension and post-retirement benefit plan obligations, and fair value measurements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and mature within ninety days of the balance sheet date. For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and balances due from banks and interest-earning deposits, including deposits with the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond.  

Securities

Securities

Investments in debt and equity securities with readily determinable fair values are classified as either held to maturity, available for sale, or trading, based on management’s intent and ability. Currently, all of the Company’s investment securities are debt securities and are classified as available for sale. Securities available for sale are carried at estimated fair value with the corresponding unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income (loss). A gain or loss on sale is recognized in earnings on the settlement date based on the amortized cost of the specific security sold. GAAP states the trade date is the date on which a purchase or sale of a security is to be recognized; however, the Company’s policy is to recognize the transaction upon the movement of cash (i.e., settlement date) and believes there is no material difference between the two methods. Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income, using the interest method over the terms of the respective securities.

Impairment of an investment security occurs when the fair value of a security is less than its amortized cost as of the balance sheet date and the value of the security is not expected to be recovered.

For debt securities, impairment is considered an other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) and recognized in its entirety in net income if (i) there is evidence of credit related impairment; (ii) the Company intends to sell the security; or (iii) it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If, however, the Company does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery, the Company must determine what portion of the impairment is attributable to a credit loss, which occurs when the amortized cost basis of the security exceeds the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected from the security. If there is a credit loss, the loss must be recognized in net income and the remaining portion of impairment must be recognized in other comprehensive income (loss).

The Company regularly reviews each investment security for OTTI based on criteria that include the extent to which cost exceeds fair value, the duration of that market decline, the financial health of and specific prospects for the issuer, the Company’s best estimate of the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from debt securities, the Company’s intention with regard to holding the security to maturity and the likelihood that it would be required to sell the security before recovery.

Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in Note 22. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.

Securities Sold Under Repurchase Agreements

Securities Sold Under Repurchase Agreements

Securities sold under repurchase agreements, which are classified as secured borrowings, generally mature within one year from the transaction date. Securities sold under repurchase agreements are reflected at the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction. The Company is required to provide collateral based on the value of the underlying cash. The Company pledges certain investment securities to satisfy its collateral requirements.

Loans

Loans

The Company offers mortgage loans on real estate, commercial and industrial loans, and consumer loans. A substantial portion of the Company’s loan portfolio is represented by mortgage loans on real estate. The ability of the Company’s borrowers to honor their loan agreements is dependent upon their ability to generate sufficient cash flow (business or personal), the value of the underlying collateral (e.g., real estate), and/or the general economic conditions in the Company’s market areas.

Loans are reported at their recorded investment, which is the outstanding principal balance net of any unearned income, such as deferred fees and costs, charge-offs, and discounts or premiums on acquired or purchased loans. Interest on loans is recognized into earnings over the contractual term of the loan and is calculated using the interest method on principal amounts outstanding. Loan fees and certain direct origination costs are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield over the contractual term of the loan, adjusted for early pay-offs or principal curtailments, as applicable. The accounting for discounts and premiums on acquired or purchased loans differs if the loans were designated purchased-credit impaired or purchased performing as of the acquisition date, as described below.

The accrual of interest is generally discontinued at the time a loan is 90 days or more past due, or earlier, if collection is uncertain based on an evaluation of the net realizable value of the collateral and the financial strength of the borrower. Loans greater than 90 days past due may remain on accrual status if the credit is well secured and in process of collection. Consumer loans are typically charged off no later than when 180 days past due. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. Nonaccrual and past due policies are materially the same for all types of loans, including impaired loans, with the exception of purchased-credit impaired (“PCI”) loans as discussed below.

All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off are reversed against interest income. Any subsequent interest received on these loans is recognized as interest income under the cash basis method of accounting until qualifying for return to accrual status. Generally, a loan is returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured, or the loan becomes well-secured and in process of collection.

Loans Acquired in a Business Combination

Loans Acquired in a Business Combination

The Company accounts for loans acquired in a business combination in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations, ASC 310-20, Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs, and ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality.  As of the date of the merger between the Company and Virginia BanCorp, Inc., loans were designated as either PCI or purchased performing loans (“PPL”) and were recorded at estimated fair value on the date of acquisition without the carryover of the related allowance for loan losses.

PCI loans are those for which there is evidence of credit deterioration since origination and for which it is probable at the date of acquisition that the Company will not collect all contractually required principal and interest payments. When determining estimated fair value at acquisition, PCI loans were aggregated into pools of loans based on common characteristics such as loan type, date of origination, and evidence of credit quality deterioration such as internal risk grades and past due and nonaccrual status. The Company must then estimate the amount and timing of expected cash flows for each loan pool, and the expected cash flows in excess of the estimated fair value is recorded as interest income over the remaining life of the loan pool as accretable yield. These estimates include certain prepayment assumptions based on the nature of each loan pool. The excess of the loan pools contractual principal and interest payments over expected future cash flows is not recorded (nonaccretable difference). Over the life of the loan pool, expected future cash flows continue to be estimated on a periodic basis. If the present value of expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount, an impairment is recorded as a provision for loan losses. If the present value of expected future cash flows is greater than the carrying amount, the respective loan pool’s yield is adjusted and the additional income is recognized prospectively into earnings over the loan pool’s remaining life.

Loans not designated as PCI loans as of the acquisition date were designated as PPL. The Company accounts for purchased performing loans using the contractual cash flows method of recognizing discount accretion or premium amortization based on the acquired loans’ contractual cash flows. Purchased performing loans were recorded at estimated fair value, including a credit-related discount and a discount or premium for differences in interest rates of the acquired loans compared to market rates for similar loans as of the acquisition date. The fair value discount or premium is accreted as an adjustment to yield over the remaining contractual lives of the loans.

There is no allowance for loan losses established at the acquisition date for purchased performing or PCI loans. A provision for loan losses is recorded for any deterioration in these loans subsequent to acquisition.

Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDR”)

Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDR”)

In some situations, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial condition, the Company may grant a concession to a borrower that it would not otherwise consider. Concessions include new terms that provide for a reduction of the face amount or maturity amount of the debt as stated in the original agreement, a reduction (absolute or contingent) of the stated interest rate for the remaining original life of the loan, and/or an extension of the maturity date or dates at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk.  Concessions granted to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties results in a loan that is subsequently classified as a troubled debt restructuring. Management strives to identify borrowers in financial difficulty early and work with them to modify their loan to more affordable terms before their loan reaches nonaccrual status to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of underlying collateral, if any. Management assesses all TDRs for impairment as noted below for impaired loans.

Loan Risk Ratings

Loan Risk Ratings

Loans in the Company’s loan portfolio are risk rated on a periodic basis by experienced credit personnel. For non-homogenous loans, management reviews these resulting grade assignments and makes adjustments to the final grade where appropriate based on an assessment of additional external information that may affect a particular loan.

Risk rating categories are as follows:

Pass – Borrower is strong or sound, and collateral securing the loan, if any, is adequate.

Watch – Borrower exhibits some signs of financial stress but is generally believed to be a satisfactory customer, and collateral, if any, may be in excess of 90% of the loan balance.

Special Mention – Adverse trends in the borrower’s financial position are evident and warrant management’s close attention. Any collateral may not be fully adequate to secure the loan balance.

Substandard – A loan in this category has a well-defined weakness in the primary repayment source that jeopardizes the timely collection of the debt. There is a distinct possibility that a loss may result if the weakness is not corrected.

Doubtful – Default has already occurred and it is likely that foreclosure or repossession procedures have begun or will begin in the near future. Weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, based on currently existing information, highly questionable and improbable.

Loss – Uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as an asset is not warranted.

Allowance for Loan Losses (“ALL”)

Allowance for Loan Losses (“ALL”)

The ALL reflects management’s judgment of probable loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. Management uses a disciplined process and methodology to establish the ALL each quarter-end. To determine the total ALL, the Company estimates the reserves needed for each homogenous type of the loan portfolio, plus any loans analyzed individually for impairment. Depending on the nature of each type, considerations include historical loss experience, adverse situations that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay, credit scores, past due history, estimated value of any underlying collateral, prevailing local and national economic conditions, and internal policies and procedures including credit risk management and underwriting. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as conditions change.

The ALL consists of specific, general, and unallocated components. The specific component is determined by identifying impaired loans (as described below) then evaluating each one to calculate the amount of impairment. Impaired loans measured individually for impairment generally include (1) any loan risk rated Special Mention or worse where the borrower has filed for bankruptcy; (2) all loans risk rated Substandard or worse with balances of $400 thousand or more; and (3) all loans classified as TDRs. For the general component of the ALL, the Company collectively evaluates any loans not evaluated individually for a specific reserve, including impaired loans risk rated Substandard or worse with balances less than $400 thousand. All loans evaluated collectively are grouped into types, and historical loss experience is calculated and applied to each loan type and the resultant reserve is adjusted for qualitative factors. Qualitative factors include changes in local and national economic indicators, such as unemployment rates, interest rates, gross domestic product growth, and real estate market trends; the level of past due and nonaccrual loans; risk ratings on individual loans; strength of credit policies and procedures; loan officer experience; borrower credit scores; and other intrinsic risks related to the types and geographic locations of loans. These qualitative adjustments reflect management’s judgment of risks inherent in the types. An unallocated component is maintained, if needed, to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses.

The specific component of the ALL includes the loan loss reserve necessary on impaired loans. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not considered impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Generally, impaired loans are placed on nonaccrual status if they meet the conditions as outlined above in the Loans section. However, TDR loans that are performing in accordance with their respective modified agreements may be placed on accrual status. Impairment is measured by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs if the loan is collateral dependent.

The general component of the ALL calculation collectively evaluates groups of loans by types, as noted above. The types are: (1) mortgage loans on real estate; (2) commercial and industrial loans; and (3) consumer and other loans. The type for mortgage loans on real estate is disaggregated into the following types: (a) construction, land and land development; (b) farmland; (c) residential first mortgages; (d) residential revolving and junior mortgages; (e) commercial mortgages (non-owner-occupied); and (f) commercial mortgages (owner-occupied). Historical loss factors are calculated for the prior 20 quarters by loan type, and then applied to the current balances in each loan grouping. Finally, qualitative factors are applied to each type, as applicable.

Construction and land development loans carry risks that the project will not be finished according to schedule or according to budget and the value of the collateral, at any point in time, may be less than the principal amount of the loan. These loans also bear the risk that the general contractor or developer may face financial pressure unrelated to the project. Loans secured by land, farmland, and residential mortgages carry the risk of continued credit-worthiness of the borrower and changes in value of the underlying real estate collateral. Commercial mortgages and commercial and industrial loans carry risks associated with the profitable operation of a business and its related cash flows. Additionally, commercial and industrial loans carry risks associated with the value of collateral other than real estate, which may depreciate over time. Consumer loans carry risks associated with the continuing credit-worthiness of the borrower and are more likely than real estate loans to be adversely affected by unemployment, personal illness, bankruptcy, or divorce of an individual. Consumer loans secured by automobiles carry risks associated with rapidly depreciating collateral values. Consumer loans include loans and debt consolidation loans purchased from third parties.

Additions to the ALL are made by charges to earnings through the provision for loan losses. Charge-offs to the ALL result from credit exposures deemed to be uncollectible. Loans are considered uncollectible when: (1) no regularly scheduled payment has been made within 120 days, and; (2) the loan is unsecured or; (3) the borrower files for bankruptcy protection and there is no other financial support or guarantee from an entity outside of the bankruptcy proceedings (e.g., guarantor). As soon as any loan becomes uncollectible, the Company’s charge-off policy is based on whether the loan is unsecured or secured. If the loan is unsecured, the loan is charged-off in full. If the loan is secured, the outstanding principal balance of the loan is charged down to the net realizable value of the underlying collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. If the loan is not collateral dependent, the charge-off is based on management’s calculation of the net present value of future cash flows. Recoveries of previously charged-off amounts are credited to the ALL.

The summation of the specific, general, and unallocated components results in the ALL. The ALL is inherently subjective and actual losses could be greater or less than estimated. Further, changes in the ALL and the related provision expense can materially affect net income.

In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s ALL. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions or reductions to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments of information available to them at the time of their examination.

Mortgage Servicing Rights (“MSRs”)

Mortgage Servicing Rights (“MSRs”)

MSR assets represent a contractual agreement where the rights to service an existing mortgage are sold by the original lender to another party who specializes in the various functions of servicing mortgages. MSRs are included on the consolidated balance sheets and are recorded at fair value. Changes in the fair value of the MSRs are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

Premises and Equipment, net

Premises and Equipment, net

Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the premises and equipment. Estimated useful lives range from 10 to 40 years for buildings, and from 3 to 10 years for furniture, fixtures, and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and major improvements are capitalized.

Other Real Estate Owned, net

Other Real Estate Owned, net

Other real estate owned (“OREO”), net of a valuation allowance, is reported on the consolidated balance sheets at the lower of cost or market. Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are marketed for sale and are initially recorded at fair value on the date of foreclosure less estimated selling costs. Upon acquisition (transfer), if the fair value of the property less estimated selling costs is less than the recorded investment of the loan, the difference is recorded as a charge-off to the ALL. Conversely, if upon transfer, the fair value of the property less estimated selling costs is in excess of the recorded investment of the loan, the difference is recorded as gain in noninterest expense on the consolidated statements of operations. Subsequent declines in the fair value of OREO below its initial cost basis are recorded as valuation allowance against OREO and to noninterest expense. Revenue and expenses related to the operation or maintenance of foreclosed properties are included in expenses from foreclosed property in noninterest expense on the consolidated statements of operations. Finally, any gain or loss resulting from the sale or disposition of OREO is included in the net other real estate owned (gains) loss line item in noninterest expenses on the consolidated statements of operations.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is an indefinite life intangible asset that represents the excess of the consideration paid or purchase price for an acquired entity over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. The Company’s goodwill resulted from the merger with Virginia BanCorp, Inc. on April 1, 2017 and from the acquisition of five branches during the years 1994 through 2000. Goodwill is tested for potential impairment on an annual basis in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.

Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life included on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The core deposit intangible asset resulting from the merger with Virginia BanCorp, Inc. is the only intangible asset with a definite useful life and is being amortized over 92 months from the date of the merger on an accelerated basis using the sum of years’ digits method.

Long-lived assets, including purchased intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Management concluded that no circumstances indicating an impairment of these assets existed as of December 31, 2018.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using the balance sheet method in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes.  Per ASC 740, the objective is to recognize (a) the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (b) defer tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements or federal income tax returns. A net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the temporary differences between the book (i.e., financial statements) and tax bases of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws. Temporary differences are reversed in the period in which an amount or amounts become taxable or deductible.

When the Company’s federal 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 ultimately be 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 to be 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 consolidated balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest and penalties, if any, associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as additional income taxes in the statements of operations.

The Company evaluates its net deferred tax asset on a quarterly basis to determine if it is more-likely-than-not those assets will be recovered and if a valuation allowance is needed. As of December 31, 2018, the Company determined no valuation allowance related to its net deferred tax asset was necessary, as the expectation is that the Company will generate sufficient taxable income in future years to absorb all of its deferred tax assets.

Employee Benefit Plans

Employee Benefit Plans

The Company has a noncontributory cash balance benefit pension plan, which was frozen in 2012. The plan covers employees who had become vested in the plan as of the date it was frozen. The Company also sponsored a post-retirement benefit plan covering eligible retirees’ medical and life insurance benefits. This plan was also frozen to new employees as of March 1, 2018. The Company accounts for both its pension and post-retirement benefit plans in accordance with ASC 715, Compensation-Retirement Benefits.

The Company also sponsors an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) and a 401(k) retirement plan for the benefit of all eligible employees.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share represent income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate to outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards.

Shares allocated to participants of the Company’s ESOP and unallocated shares, which collateralize ESOP borrowings but that are committed to be released are also included in basic and diluted average shares outstanding. However, shares held by the ESOP, which collateralize ESOP borrowings and that are not committed to be released, are excluded from both basic and diluted average shares outstanding.

Off-balance-sheet Financial Instruments

Off-balance-sheet Financial Instruments

In the ordinary course of business, the Bank enters into off-balance-sheet financial agreements such as construction loan commitments, home equity lines of credit, overdraft protection lines of credit, unsecured lines of credit, working capital loan commitments, and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the financial statements when they are funded or related fees are recognized.

Bank Owned Life Insurance

Bank Owned Life Insurance

The Company invests in bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”), which is life insurance purchased by the Bank on a selected group of employees. The Bank is the owner and primary beneficiary of the policies. BOLI is recorded in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at the cash surrender value of the underlying policies. Earnings from the increase in cash surrender value of the policies are included in noninterest income on the consolidated statements of operations. The Bank has rights under the insurance contracts to redeem them for cash surrender value at any time; however, a redemption not upon the occurrence of death is subject to taxation.

Share-based Compensation Plans

Share-based Compensation Plans

The Company accounts for its share-based compensation plan awards for employees and directors in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation.  The Company grants incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options for certain employees and directors, respectively, in addition to restricted stock awards. ASC 718 promulgates that the fair value of the respective award on the grant date be expensed over the requisite service period over which the award vests.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (ASC 718). The amendments in this ASU expand the scope of ASC 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. An entity should apply the requirements of ASC 718 to nonemployee awards except for specific guidance on inputs to an option pricing model and the attribution of cost. The amendments specify that ASC 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The amendments also clarify that ASC 718 does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract accounted for under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than an entity’s adoption date of Topic 606. The Company early adopted this ASU, and the adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (ASC 718). The amendments in this ASU provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to account for modifications in ASC 718. An entity should account for the effects of a modification unless all the following are met: (1) The fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value, if such an alternative measurement method is used) of the modified award is the same as the fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value, if such an alternative measurement method is used) of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. If the modification does not affect any of the inputs to the valuation technique that the entity uses to value the award, the entity is not required to estimate the value immediately before and after the modification: (2) The vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. And (3) the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The current disclosure requirements in ASC 718 apply regardless of whether an entity is required to apply modification accounting under the amendments in this ASU. This ASC was effective for annual periods and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this ASC in the first quarter of 2018. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (ASC 310-20), Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. The amendments in this ASU shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities purchased at a premium. Upon adoption of the standard, premiums on these qualifying callable debt securities will be amortized to the earliest call date. Discounts on purchased debt securities will continue to be accreted to maturity. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. Upon transition, entities should apply the guidance on a modified retrospective basis, with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption and provide the disclosures required for a change in accounting principle. The Company early adopted this ASU, and the adoption did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation – Retirement Benefits (ASC 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. This ASU intends to improve the presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit costs in the income statement and to narrow the amounts eligible for capitalization in assets. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company adopted this ASU in the first quarter of 2018. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (ASC 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU simplifies accounting for goodwill impairments by eliminating step two (the implied fair value to carrying value of goodwill) from the existing goodwill impairment test. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value. The effective date and transition requirements for the technical corrections will be effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company early adopted this ASU, and the adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (ASC 326), which is new guidance for the accounting for credit losses on instruments within its scope. It introduces a new model for current expected credit losses (“CECL”), which will apply to financial assets subject to credit losses and measured at amortized cost and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. This will include loans, held-to-maturity debt securities, loan commitments, financial guarantees, net investments in leases, reinsurance, and trade receivables. The CECL model requires an entity to estimate the credit losses expected over the life of an exposure (or pool of exposures). The estimate of expected credit losses should consider historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments. In addition, this ASC will replace the current available-for-sale debt securities OTTI model with an estimate of expected credit losses only when the fair value falls below the amortized cost of the asset. Credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities will be limited to the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and its fair value. The available-for-sale debt security model will also require the use of an allowance to record estimated credit losses and subsequent recoveries. The ASU also addresses purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. Disclosure requirements are expanded regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for loan losses. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company has formed an implementation group, which is evaluating the effect that this ASU will have on the Company’s ALL and consolidated financial statements. During the third quarter of 2018, the work group reviewed various CECL software tools and vendors, and in the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company selected a third-party vendor and model to support the requirements of the standard and to assist in implementation in 2019. The implementation group has a work plan and timeline for implementation.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (ASC 842). This ASC increases transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and requiring more disclosures related to leasing transactions. This ASC is effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company has several lease agreements, such as for office space and branch offices, which are currently considered operating leases and not recognized on its consolidated balance sheets for the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. The Company expects the new guidance to require these lease agreements to be recognized on its balance sheet as a right-of-use asset with a corresponding liability. Upon adoption of ASC 842 and the related ASUs on January 1, 2019, the Company expects to recognize right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities of approximately $3.5 million and $3.9 million, respectively.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (ASC 825-10), which requires equity investments, other than those accounted for using the equity method, to be measured at fair value through earnings. There will no longer be an available-for-sale classification measured (changes in fair value reported in other comprehensive income) for equity securities with readily determinable fair values. The cost method is also eliminated for equity instruments without a readily determinable fair value. For these investments, companies can elect to record the investment at cost, less impairment, plus or minus subsequent adjustments for observable price changes. This election only applies to equity investments that do not qualify for the net asset value practical expedient. Public companies will be required to use the exit price when measuring the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for disclosure purposes. In addition, this ASC requires financial assets and financial liabilities to be presented separately in the notes to the financial statements, grouped by measurement category and form of financial asset. The classification and measurement guidance is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company’s primary available-for sale investments are debt securities and are therefore not included in the scope of this ASU; however, the Company is subject to certain disclosure requirements of the standard and engaged a third party to assist with the measurement of exit prices of its financial instruments, including its loans receivables, deposits, and borrowings. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of this ASC did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements, other than the fair value disclosures in Note 22.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASC 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606). The amendments in this ASU modify the guidance companies use to recognize revenue from contracts with customers for transfers of goods or services and transfers of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The ASC requires that entities apply a specific method to recognize revenue reflecting the consideration expected from customers in exchange for the transfer of goods and services. The guidance also requires new qualitative and quantitative disclosures, including information about contract balances and performance obligations. Entities are also required to disclose significant judgments and changes in judgments for determining the satisfaction of performance obligations. Subsequent to the issuance of this ASC, the FASB issued targeted updates to clarify specific implementation issues including ASU 2016-08, Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), ASU 2016-10, Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, ASU 2016-12, Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, and ASU 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. For financial reporting purposes, the standard allows for either full retrospective adoption, meaning the standard is applied to all of the periods presented, or modified retrospective adoptions, meaning the standard is applied only to the most current period presented in the financial statements with the cumulative effect on initially applying the standard being recognized at the date of initial application. The effective date for this ASC was for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company’s primary source of revenue is interest income from loans and investments and loan fees. As these items are outside the scope of the standard, this income was not affected by this ASC. The Company reviewed other sources of income including fiduciary fees, secondary market lending fees, and other deposit account fees against the requirements of the standard and concluded no changes in the accounting methods were necessary. These sources of revenue are recognized in income when the Company’s performance obligation is completed, which generally is when the transaction occurs for transaction related fees or when the asset is transferred on the sale of loans. The Company also completed its evaluation of certain costs related to these revenue streams to determine whether such costs should be presented as expenses or contra-revenue (i.e., gross versus net). Based on its evaluation, the Company determined that the classification of certain debit and credit card related costs should change (i.e., costs should be presented net of related revenues). This classification was made to both revenue and expense for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, reported as interchange fees, net on the consolidated statements of operations.
