WELLESLEY BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONSOLIDATION

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Wellesley Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Wellesley Bank (the “Bank”), the principal operating entity, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Wellesley Securities Corporation, which engages in the business of buying, selling and dealing in securities exclusively on its own behalf; Wellesley Investment Partners, LLC, formed to provide investment management services for individuals, not-for-profit entities and businesses; and Central Linden, LLC, to hold, manage and sell foreclosed real estate. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Assets under management at Wellesley Investment Partners, LLC are not included in these consolidated financial statements because they are not assets of the Company. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017 or for any other period.

NOTE 2 – LOAN POLICIES

The loan portfolio consists of real estate, commercial and other loans to the Company’s customers in our primary market areas in eastern Massachusetts. The ability of the Company’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the economy in general and the real estate and construction sectors within our markets.

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until maturity or pay-off, are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred loan origination fees or costs. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield using the interest method.

Interest is generally not accrued on loans which are identified as impaired or loans which are ninety days or more past due. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. Interest income previously accrued on such loans is reversed against current period interest income. Interest income on non-accrual loans is recognized only to the extent of interest payments received and is first applied to the outstanding principal balance when collectibility of principal is in doubt. Loans are returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured through sustained payment performance for at least six months.

Allowance for loan losses

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings as losses are estimated to have occurred. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of the loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The allowance consists of general, allocated and unallocated components.

5

General component

The general component is based on the following loan segments: residential real estate, commercial real estate, construction, commercial, home equity lines of credit and other consumer. Management considers a rolling average of historical losses for each segment based on a time frame appropriate to capture relevant loss data for each loan segment, generally three and 10 years. This historical loss factor is adjusted for the following qualitative factors: levels/trends in delinquencies; trends in volume; concentrations and terms of loans; level of collateral protection; effects of changes in risk selection and underwriting standards; experience/ability/depth of lending management and staff; and national and local economic trends and conditions. There were no significant changes to the Company’s policies or methodology pertaining to the general component of the allowance during 2017 or 2016.

The qualitative factor adjustments are determined based on the various risk characteristics of each loan segment. Risk characteristics relevant to each portfolio segment are as follows:

Residential real estate – The Company generally does not originate loans with a loan-to-value ratio greater than 80 percent and does not originate subprime loans. Most loans in this segment are collateralized by one-to-four family residential real estate and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower. The overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and housing prices, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.

Commercial real estate – Loans in this segment are primarily income-producing properties in the Company’s primary market areas in eastern Massachusetts. The underlying cash flows generated by the properties may be adversely impacted by a downturn in the economy as evidenced by increased vacancy rates, which in turn, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment. Management typically obtains rent rolls annually and continually monitors the cash flows of these loans.

Construction – Loans in this segment include speculative construction loans primarily on residential properties for which payment is derived from the sale of the property. Credit risk is affected by cost overruns, time to sell at an adequate price, and market conditions.    Residential construction loans in this segment also include loans to build one-to-four family owner-occupied properties which are subject to the same credit quality factors as residential real estate.

Commercial – Loans in this segment are made to businesses and are generally secured by assets of the business. Repayment is expected from the cash flows of the business. A weakened economy, and resultant decreased consumer spending, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.

Home equity lines of credit – Loans in this segment are collateralized by one-to-four family residential real estate and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower. The overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and housing prices, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.

Other consumer – Loans in this segment are generally unsecured and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower.

Allocated component

The allocated component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the fair value of the loan or, if the loan is collateral dependent, by the fair value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell. An allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value) of the impaired loan are lower than the carrying value of that loan. Large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify performing individual residential and consumer loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are subject to a troubled debt restructuring agreement.

6

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 classified as 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.

The Company periodically may agree to modify the contractual terms of loans. When a loan is modified and a concession is made to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty, the modification is considered a troubled debt restructuring ("TDR"). All TDRs are initially classified as impaired.

Unallocated component

An unallocated component is maintained to cover additional uncertainties in management’s estimation of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating allocated and general reserves in the portfolio.

NOTE 3 – COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, and gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the stockholders’ equity section of the consolidated balance sheets, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income (loss).

The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss and related tax effects are as follows:

	March 31,			December 31,
	2017			2016
	(In thousands)
Unrealized holding losses on securities available for sale	$	(137	)	$	(374	)
Tax effect		57			145
Net-of tax amount	$	(80	)	$	(229	)

NOTE 4 – RECENT ACCOUNTING AND REGULATORY PRONOUNCEMENTS

Effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718). This update is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The adoption of this update did not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Receivables- Non-refundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20) which shortens the period of amortization of the premium on certain callable debt securities to the earliest call date. For the Company, these amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. Management elected to early adopt this ASU effective January 1, 2017 and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The amendments in this update create Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. The core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. For public companies, this ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of this update will not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

7

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10), to address certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The key provision included in the ASU is that equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) will be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income and the elimination of the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost.  For public entities such as the Company, this ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. This update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires a lessee to record a right-to-use asset and liability representing the obligation to make lease payments for long-term leases. This ASU will be effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management does not expect the adoption of this update to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires entities to measure expected credit losses based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectibility of the reported amount. Credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities should be measured in a manner similar to current GAAP; however, recognized credit losses will be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. This ASU will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods. Management is currently evaluating the impact to the consolidated financial statements of adopting this update.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The amendments in this ASU provide cash flow statement classification guidance for certain areas where diversification existed in practice. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The adoption of this update will not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The amendments in this update require that in the statement of cash flows, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents are included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this update will not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because the issuer, in certain instances, has the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such evaluations. At March 31, 2017, various debt securities have unrealized losses with aggregate depreciation of 1.8% from their aggregate amortized cost basis. These unrealized losses relate principally to the effect of interest rate changes on the fair value of debt securities and not an increase in credit risk of the issuers. As the Company does not intend to sell the securities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell the securities before recovery of their amortized cost, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2017.

Credit Quality Information

The Company utilizes an eleven-grade internal loan rating system for commercial real estate, construction and commercial loans.

Loans rated 1-4: Loans in these categories are considered “pass” rated loans with low-to-average risk.

Loans rated 5: Loans in this category are considered “special mention.” These loans are starting to show signs of potential weakness and are being closely monitored by management.

Loans rated 6: Loans in this category are considered “substandard.” Generally, a loan is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligors and/or the collateral pledged. There is a distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the weakness is not corrected.

Loans rated 7: Loans in this category are considered “doubtful.” Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, highly questionable and improbable.

Loans rated 8: Loans in this category are considered uncollectible or “loss” and of such little value that their continuance as loans is not warranted.

Loans rated 9: Loans in this category only include commercial loans under $25 thousand with no other outstandings or relationships with the Company.

Loans rated 10: Loans in this category include loans which otherwise require rating but which have not been rated, or loans for which the Company’s loan policy does not require rating.

Loans rated 11: Loans in this category include credit commitments/relationships that cannot be rated due to a lack of financial information or inaccurate financial information. If within 60 days of the assignment of an 11 rating information is still not available to allow a standard rating, the credit will be rated 6.

On an annual basis, or more often if needed, the Company formally reviews the ratings on all commercial real estate, construction and commercial loans. During each calendar year, the Company engages an independent third party to review a significant portion of loans within these segments. Management uses the results of these reviews as part of its annual review process. On a monthly basis, the Company reviews the residential real estate and consumer loan portfolio for credit quality primarily through the use of delinquency reports.

The following table presents the Company’s loans by risk rating:

NOTE 7 – FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair value hierarchy

The Company groups its assets generally measured at fair value 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.

Level 1 – Valuation is based on quoted market prices in active exchange markets for identical assets and liabilities. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources.

Level 2 – Valuation is based on observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets and liabilities. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources.

Level 3 – Valuation is based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. Level 3 assets include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as those for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Transfers between levels are recognized at the end of a reporting period, if applicable.

Determination of fair value

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Fair value is 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. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures:

Cash, cash equivalents and certificates of deposit: The carrying amounts approximate fair values based on the short-term nature of the assets.

Securities available for sale: Fair value measurements are obtained from a third-party pricing service and are not adjusted by management. All securities are measured at fair value in Level 2 based on valuation models that consider standard input factors such as observable market data, benchmark yields, interest rate volatilities, broker/dealer quotes, credit spreads and new issue data.

Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock: The carrying value of FHLB stock is deemed to approximate fair value based on the redemption provisions of the FHLB of Boston.

Loans held for sale: Fair values are based on commitments in effect from investors or prevailing market prices.

Loans, net: For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or underlying collateral values, where applicable.

Deposits: The fair values disclosed for non-certificate deposit accounts are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies market interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

15

Short-term borrowings: The carrying amount of short-term borrowings approximates fair value, based on the short-term nature of the liabilities.

Long-term debt: The fair values of long-term debt are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current incremental borrowing rates in the market for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Subordinated debt: The fair values reported for subordinated debentures are based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rates used are representative of approximate rates currently offered on instruments with similar terms and maturities.

Accrued interest: The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.

Forward loan sale commitments and derivative loan commitments: The fair value of forward loan sale commitments and derivative loan commitments are based on fair values of the underlying mortgage loans, including servicing values as applicable. The fair value of derivative loan commitments also considers the probability of such commitments being exercised.

Off-balance sheet instruments: Fair values for off-balance-sheet lending commitments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The fair values of these instruments are considered immaterial.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 are summarized below.

Assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis

The Company may also be required, from time to time, to measure certain other financial assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These adjustments to fair value usually result from application of lower-of-cost-or-market (“LOCOM”) accounting or write-downs of individual assets. The following table summarizes the fair value hierarchy used to determine each adjustment and the carrying value of the related individual assets.

	March 31, 2017						December 31, 2016
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2017		2016
	(In thousands)
Loans held for sale	$	—	$	(51	)

Loans held for sale (“LHFS”) are evaluated for losses associated with the application of LOCOM accounting. There were no loans held for sale at March 31, 2017. At March 31, 2016, a rise in market interest rates above contractual loan rates from the time LHFS were recorded is reflected as a reduction in the carrying value of the asset and a loss is recognized in current period earnings.

There are no liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

NOTE 8 – EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN

The Bank maintains an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “ESOP”) to provide eligible employees the opportunity to own Company stock. This plan is a tax-qualified retirement plan for the benefit of all Company employees. Contributions are allocated to eligible participants on the basis of compensation, subject to federal tax limits.

The Company granted a loan to the ESOP for the purchase shares of the Company’s common stock on the closing date of the Company’s mutual to stock conversion in 2012. As of March 31, 2017, the ESOP held 186,337 shares or 7.50% of the common stock outstanding on that date. The loan obtained by the ESOP from the Company to purchase common stock is payable annually over 15 years at the rate of 3.25% per annum. The loan can be prepaid without penalty. Loan payments are expected to be funded by cash contributions from the Bank. The loan is secured by the shares purchased, which are held in a suspense account for allocation among participants as the loan is repaid. Cash dividends paid on allocated shares will be distributed to participants and cash dividends paid on unallocated shares will be used to repay the outstanding debt of the ESOP. Shares used as collateral to secure the loan are released and available for allocation to eligible employees as the principal and interest on the loan is paid.

Shares held by the ESOP at March 31, 2017 include the following:

Allocated	57,955
Committed to be allocated	3,209
Unallocated	125,173
	186,337

The fair value of unallocated shares was $3.3 million at March 31, 2017.

Total compensation expense recognized in connection with the ESOP for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $88 thousand and $59 thousand, respectively.

NOTE 9 – EQUITY INCENTIVE PLANS

Under the Company’s 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Equity Incentive Plan”), effective July 27, 2016, the Company may grant restricted stock awards to its employees and directors for up to 75,000 shares of its common stock. A restricted stock award (the “award”) is a grant of shares of Company common stock for no consideration, subject to a vesting schedule or the satisfaction of market conditions or performance criteria. Awarded shares are held in reserve for each grantee by the Company’s transfer agent, and will be issued from previously authorized but unissued shares upon vesting. The fair value of the stock awards, based on the market price at the grant date, will be recognized over the five-year vesting period. On October 1, 2016, the Board of Directors granted stock awards of 26,000 to certain management, employees, and directors.

Under the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2012 Equity Incentive Plan”), the Company granted stock options to its employees and directors in the form of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options totaling 231,894 shares of its common stock. The exercise price of each stock option was not less than the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, and the maximum term of each option is 10 years from the date of each award. The vesting period is five years from the date of grant, with vesting at 20% per year.

Under the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan, the Company also granted stock awards to management, employees and directors. Awarded shares are held in reserve for each grantee by the Company’s transfer agent, and will be issued from previously authorized but unissued shares upon vesting. The fair value of the stock awards, based on the market price at the grant date, is recognized over the five-year vesting period.

The Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan was terminated upon approval of the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, compensation expense applicable to the stock options was $53 thousand, and the recognized tax benefit related to this expense was $10 thousand and $9 thousand, respectively.

Unrecognized compensation expense for non-vested stock options totaled $187 thousand as of March 31, 2017, which will be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of 1.01 years.

Stock Awards

There was no activity in non-vested restricted stock awards under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan or the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, compensation expense applicable to the stock awards was $101 thousand and $74 thousand, respectively, and the recognized tax benefit related to this expense was $40 thousand and $30 thousand, respectively.

Unrecognized compensation expense for non-vested restricted stock totaled $788 thousand as of March 31, 2017, which will be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of 2.95 years.

NOTE 10 – EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per share represents income available to common stockholders 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, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Unallocated ESOP shares are not deemed outstanding for earnings per share calculations. Under the Company’s 2012 and 2016 Equity Incentive Plans, stock awards contain non-forfeitable dividend rights. Accordingly, these shares are considered outstanding for computation of basic earnings per share. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate to outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards and are determined using the treasury stock method.

Earnings per common share have been computed as follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31,

All options were included in the computations of diluted earnings per share at March 31, 2017.

Options for 43,000 shares were not included in the computations of diluted earnings per share because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Anti-dilutive shares are common stock equivalents with exercise prices in excess of the average market value of the Company’s stock for the periods presented.

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

Safe Harbor Statement for Forward-Looking Statements

This report may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These statements are not historical facts; rather they are statements based on the Company’s current expectations regarding its business strategies and their intended results and its future performance. Forward-looking statements are preceded by terms such as “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “intends,” and similar expressions.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. Numerous risks and uncertainties could cause or contribute to the Company’s actual results, performance and achievements being materially different from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause or contribute to these differences include, without limitation, general economic conditions, including changes in market interest rates and changes in monetary and fiscal policies of the federal government; legislative and regulatory changes; the changing quality and composition of the loan and investment securities portfolio; loan demand; deposit flows; competition; and, changes in accounting principles and guidelines. Additional factors that may affect our results are discussed in the Company’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K under the section titled “Item 1A.–Risk Factors.” These factors should be considered in evaluating the forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, the Company assumes no obligation and disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

We consider critical accounting policies to be accounting policies involving significant judgments and assumptions by management that have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or on income.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is the amount estimated by management as necessary to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance is established through the provision for loan losses, which is charged to income. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment. Among the material estimates required to establish the allowance are the following: the likelihood of loan default; the loss exposure at default; the amount and timing of future cash flows on impaired loans; the value of collateral; and, the determination of loss factors to be applied to the various qualitative elements of the portfolio. All of these estimates are susceptible to significant change. Management reviews the level of the allowance at least quarterly and establishes the provision for loan losses based upon an evaluation of the portfolio, past loss experience, current economic conditions and other factors related to the collectibility of the loan portfolio. Although we believe that we use the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if economic or other conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluation. In addition, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and Massachusetts Commissioner of Banks, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our allowance for loan losses and may require us to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination. A large loss could deplete the allowance and require increased provisions to replenish the allowance, which would adversely affect earnings.

Deferred Tax Assets. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. Management reviews deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis to identify any uncertainties pertaining to realization of such assets. In determining whether a valuation allowance is required against deferred tax assets, management assesses historical and forecasted operating results, including a review of eligible carry-forward periods, tax planning opportunities and other relevant considerations. We believe the accounting estimate related to the valuation allowance is a critical estimate because the underlying assumptions can change from period to period. For example, tax law changes or variances in future projected operating performance could result in a change in the valuation allowance. Should actual factors and conditions differ materially from those used by management, the actual realization of net deferred tax assets could differ materially from the amounts recorded in the financial statements. If we were not able to realize all or part of our deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the related valuation allowance would be charged to income tax expense in the period such determination was made and could have a negative impact on earnings. In addition, if actual factors and conditions differ materially from those used by management, we could incur penalties and interest imposed by taxing authorities.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016

General. Total assets increased $9.0 million, or 1.3%, from $695.3 million at December 31, 2016 to $704.3 million at March 31, 2017. Total asset growth was due to an increase in net loans of $11.0 million, or 1.9%, and an increase of $2.3 million, or 3.5%, in securities available for sale, partially offset by a reduction of $2.2 million, or 7.7%, in cash and cash equivalents.

Loans. Growth in the loan portfolio of $11.0 million reflects our expansion efforts over the past couple of years as well as a strategic focus to diversify our loan portfolio. Residential real estate loans increased $13.7 million to $281.7 million, compared to $268.1 million at December 31, 2016. Generally, adjustable-rate residential mortgage loans that are originated are held in portfolio while most all newly originated fixed-rate residential loans are sold in the secondary market. Commercial loans decreased $692 thousand, or 1.4%, due largely to seasonal fluctuations. Commercial real estate loans decreased $1.2 million, or 1.0%, due to pay-downs and slower first quarter volume. Construction loans decreased $743 thousand, or 0.7%, primarily due to the completion of several projects during the period.

At March 31, 2017, past due loans totaled $714 thousand as compared to $1.8 million at December 31, 2016. Substantially all delinquent loans are secured by real estate collateral with values exceeding outstanding loan principal. Any losses expected on delinquent loans have been charged-off and amounted to $11 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Securities. Total securities increased from $64.6 million at December 31, 2016 to $66.9 million at March 31, 2017, as excess liquidity was invested in municipal bonds.

Deposits. Total deposits increased $3.3 million, or 0.6%, from $522.8 million at December 31, 2016 to $526.1 million at March 31, 2017. Money market accounts increased $3.2 million. Savings accounts increased $2.8 million. Certificates of deposit increased $140 thousand and NOW account balances increased $97 thousand. Demand deposits decreased $3.0 million, or 3.2%, to $92.0 million as balances declined in both retail and commercial accounts.

Borrowings. We use borrowings, primarily from the FHLB, to supplement our supply of funds for loans and securities, and to support short-term liquidity needs of the institution. Long-term debt, consisting entirely of FHLB advances, increased $13.9 million, or 16.8%, for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Short-term borrowings also consist entirely of advances from the FHLB with initial maturities less than one year. Balances of short-term borrowings decreased $9.0 million, or 42.4%, since December 31, 2016. Increased lending activity and liquidity needs were funded primarily by the FHLB borrowings and to a lesser extent deposit growth. The balance of the subordinated debt was $9.8 million at March 31, 2017.

Stockholders’ Equity. Stockholders’ equity increased $1.2 million, or 2.1%, from $55.2 million at December 31, 2016 to $56.4 million at March 31, 2017, primarily as a result of net income for the three month period of $881 thousand, share-based compensation related to the equity incentive plans of $154 thousand, and the after-tax effect of increases in the fair value of available for sale securities of $149 thousand.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 and 2016

Overview. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $881 thousand, compared to net income of $732 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The $149 thousand increase was primarily due to an increase in net interest income and an increase in noninterest income, partially offset by an increase in non-interest expenses. Net interest income increased $408 thousand to $5.2 million, and noninterest income increased $176 thousand to $521 thousand in the 2017 quarter while noninterest expense increased $387 thousand to $4.3 million in the same period.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 increased $408 thousand, or 8.5%, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to increases in the average balances of loans, partially offset by a decline in loan yields. Interest expense in the period increased, driven by overall deposit growth, higher rates offered on certificates of deposit, and increases in long term borrowings.

23

Interest and dividend income increased $476 thousand, or 7.9%, from $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 to $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased 11.5%, while the average rate earned on these assets decreased by nine basis points (“bps”). Interest and fees on loans increased $420 thousand, or 7.6%, due to a 12.5% increase in the average balance of loans partially offset by a 15 bp decrease in the average rate earned on loans. Contributing to the increase in loan income was the increase in commercial real estate and commercial loan balances during the period. Interest income from taxable securities increased $9 thousand, or 2.7%, due to an increase in the average rate earned on these securities of 16 bps as compared to the prior year period.

The increase in interest expense was primarily due to an increase in average balances of long-term borrowings. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $31.3 million, or 7.8%, in the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to the same period in 2016, and the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits decreased four bps. The rate paid on savings accounts decreased three bps primarily due to a lower rate structure for these accounts than in the prior year, while the average balance of savings accounts decreased $1.4 million to $98.3 million, as compared to the prior year period. The cost of term certificates of deposit increased $5 thousand to $537 thousand as balances in both our retail products and deposits generated through a national certificate of deposit clearinghouse have increased while rates paid to acquire these balances have decreased three bps, compared to the same period last year. The average balance of long-term FHLB advances increased from $72.8 million to $85.5 million, while rates paid on long-term FHLB advances increased from 1.35% to 1.36%. As compared to the prior year period, the cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the period decreased by two bps. Interest expense on short-term borrowings totaled $32 thousand in the three month period ended March 31, 2017, compared to $16 thousand in the three months ended March 31, 2016 due to rates increasing by 30 bps.

Average Balances and Yields. The following table presents information regarding average balances of assets and liabilities, the total dollar amounts of interest income and dividends from average interest-earning assets, the total dollar amounts of interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities, and the resulting annualized average yields and costs. The yields and costs for the periods indicated are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balances of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. Average balances have been calculated using daily balances. Loan fees are included in interest income on loans and are insignificant. Yields are not presented on a tax-equivalent basis. Any adjustments necessary to present yields on a tax-equivalent basis are insignificant.

Provision for Loan Losses. There was no provision for loan losses recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to $62 thousand for the comparable period ended 2016. In the 2017 period, the provision reflects management’s estimate of loan losses based upon historical loan portfolio performance as well as environmental considerations such as the strength of the regional economy and organizational knowledge and expertise. One nonperforming consumer loan was charged off during the 2017 period.

Analysis of Loan Loss Experience. The following table sets forth an analysis of the allowance for loan losses for the periods indicated.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income totaled $521 thousand, an increase of $176 thousand or 51.0%. Wealth management fees increased $84 thousand as compared to the prior year period as assets under management increased. Income from mortgage banking activities in 2017 increased $11 thousand as sales of longer-term, fixed rate mortgage loans increased as compared to the prior year. Commercial loan fees, included in miscellaneous income, increased $80 thousand during the 2017 period.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased $387 thousand to $4.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017, from $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Factors that contributed to the increase in noninterest expense during the 2017 period were increased salaries and employee benefits of $307 thousand, or 13.3%, primarily attributable to the recognition of a full quarter of expenses related to our Newton office that opened in April 2016, along with several strategic hires in late 2016. FDIC insurance costs increased $70 thousand, or 90.9%, as new quarterly assessment rates were implemented. Occupancy and equipment expense increased $33 thousand resulting from normal rent increases and additional rent and operating expense associated with our new office space. Professional fees decreased $18 thousand, as one-time charges were incurred during 2016 for certain staffing searches.

Income Taxes. An income tax provision of $563 thousand was recorded during the quarter ended March 31, 2017, compared to a provision of $453 thousand in the comparable 2016 quarter. The effective tax rate for the 2017 three month period was 39.0%, compared with 38.2% for the 2016 three month period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity Management. Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term and long-term nature. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, maturities and sales of securities, and borrowings from the FHLB. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows, calls of securities, and prepayments on loans are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.

Management regularly adjusts our investments in liquid assets based upon an assessment of the following: expected loan demand; expected deposit flows; yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities; and the objectives of our interest-rate risk and investment policies.

27

Our most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, and securities available for sale. The level of these assets depends on our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At March 31, 2017, cash and cash equivalents, which include short-term investments, totaled $26.3 million. Securities classified as available-for-sale totaled $66.9 million. There were no loans held for sale at March 31, 2017.

At March 31, 2017, we had $12.3 million in short-term borrowings outstanding, represented entirely by FHLB advances, and $96.9 million in long-term debt, also consisting entirely of FHLB advances. At March 31, 2017, we had a total of $23.8 million in unused borrowing capacity from the FHLB. Short-term borrowings are generally used to fund temporary cash needs due to the timing of loan originations and deposit gathering activities. Long-term debt is generally used to provide for longer-term funding needs of the Company, including the match funding of loans originated for portfolio. At March 31, 2017, we also had the ability to borrow $5.0 million from the Co-operative Central Bank on an unsecured basis, a credit line of $5.0 million with a correspondent bank, and $10.3 million from the Federal Reserve Bank under a collateralized borrowing program, none of which was outstanding at that date.

At March 31, 2017, we had $122.1 million in loan commitments outstanding, which included $41.9 million in unadvanced funds on construction loans, $28.2 million in unadvanced home equity lines of credit, $28.8 million in unadvanced commercial lines of credit, and $22.4 million in new loan originations.

Term certificates of deposit due within one year of March 31, 2017 amounted to $141.3 million, or 72.4%, of total term certificates, an increase of $18.3 million from $123.0 million at December 31, 2016. Balances of term certificates maturing in more than one year decreased to $53.9 million as compared to $72.0 million at December 31, 2016. Balances of term certificates that mature within one year reflect customer preferences for greater liquidity of personal funds, while longer-dated certificates reflect a willingness among customers to accept current interest rates for extended time periods. If maturing deposits are not renewed, we will be required to seek other sources of funds, including new term certificates and other borrowings. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than we currently pay on the existing funds. Management believes, however, based on past experience that a significant portion of our term certificates will be renewed. We have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered.

The Company is a separate legal entity from the Bank and will have to provide for its own liquidity to pay its operating expenses and other financial obligations. The Company’s primary source of income will be dividends received from the Bank and earnings from investment of net proceeds from the offering retained by the Company. Massachusetts banking law and FDIC regulations limit distributions of capital. In addition, the Company is subject to the policy of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal Reserve Board”) that dividends should be paid only out of current earnings and only if the prospective rate of earnings retention by the Company appears consistent with its capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition. At March 31, 2017, the Company had $674 thousand of liquid assets as represented by cash and cash equivalents on an unconsolidated basis.

Capital Management. The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Massachusetts Commissioner of Banks, including a risk-based capital measure. The Company is also subject to similar capital requirements set by the Federal Reserve Board. The risk-based capital guidelines include both a definition of capital and a framework for calculating risk-weighted assets by assigning balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories. In July 2013, the Federal Reserve Board released its final rules, which implemented the Basel III regulatory capital reforms from the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and certain changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act. These rules became effective January 1, 2016 for community banks and increased both the quality and quantity of capital held by banks. The final rule implements strict eligibility criteria for regulatory capital instruments and improves the methodology for calculating risk-weighted assets to enhance risk sensitivity. Consistent with the international Basel framework, the final rule included a new minimum capital requirement of common equity Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5% and a common equity Tier I capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets. The capital conservation buffer is being phased in beginning on January 1, 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets, increasing each year until fully implemented to 2.5% on January 1, 2019. At March 31, 2017, the capital conservation buffer was 1.250%. In addition, the final rule raises the minimum ratio of Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets requirement from 4% to 6% and includes a minimum leverage ratio of 4% for all banking organizations.

At March 31, 2017, the Bank was well-capitalized under the current rules. Management believes the Bank’s capital levels will be characterized as “well-capitalized” upon full implementation of the new rules.

28

We strive to manage our capital for maximum shareholder benefit. The capital from our stock offering significantly increased our liquidity and capital resources. Over time, the initial level of liquidity has been reduced as net proceeds from the stock offering were used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of lending activities. Our financial condition and results of operations were enhanced by the capital from the offering, resulting over time in increased net interest-earning assets and net income. However, the large increase in equity resulting from the capital raised in the offering has had an adverse impact on our return on equity. To help us better manage our capital, we may use such tools as common share repurchases and cash dividends as regulations permit.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles are not recorded in our financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit. For information about our loan commitments and unused lines of credit see “—Liquidity Management” herein.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company did not engage in any off-balance sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

Qualitative Aspects of Market Risk

One significant risk affecting the financial condition and operating results of the Company and the Bank is interest rate risk. We manage the interest rate sensitivity of our interest-bearing liabilities and interest-earning assets in an effort to minimize the adverse effects of changes in the interest rate environment. Deposit accounts typically react more quickly to changes in market interest rates than mortgage loans because of the shorter maturities of deposits. As a result, sharp increases in interest rates may adversely affect our earnings while decreases in interest rates may beneficially affect our earnings. To reduce the potential volatility of our earnings, we have sought to improve the match between asset and liability maturities and rates, while maintaining an acceptable interest rate spread. Our strategy for managing interest rate risk emphasizes: originating adjustable-rate loans for retention in our loan portfolio; selling in the secondary market substantially all newly originated conforming longer-term fixed rate residential mortgage loans; promoting core deposit products; adjusting the maturities of borrowings; and adjusting the investment portfolio mix and duration.

We have an Asset/Liability Committee, which includes members of management to communicate, coordinate and control all aspects involving asset-liability management. The committee establishes and monitors the volume, maturities, pricing and mix of assets and funding sources with the objective of managing assets and funding sources to provide results that are consistent with liquidity, growth, risk limits and profitability goals.

Quantitative Aspects of Market Risk

We analyze our interest rate sensitivity position to manage the risk associated with interest rate movements through the use of interest income and equity simulations. The matching of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to which such assets and liabilities are “interest sensitive.” An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if it will mature or reprice within that time period.

Our goal is to manage asset and liability positions to moderate the effects of interest rate fluctuations on net interest income and the present value of our equity. Interest income and equity simulations are completed quarterly and presented to the Asset/Liability Committee and the Board of Directors. The simulations provide an estimate of the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income and the present value of our equity under a range of assumptions. The simulation incorporates assumptions regarding the potential timing in the repricing of certain assets and liabilities when market rates change and the changes in spreads between different market rates. The simulation analysis incorporates management’s current assessment of the risk that pricing margins will change adversely over time due to competition or other factors.

Simulation analysis is only an estimate of our interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time. We continually review the potential effect changes in interest rates could have on the repayment of rate sensitive assets and funding requirements of rate sensitive liabilities. We engaged a new outside vendor in the third quarter of 2016 to increase the functionality and sophistication of these simulations.

29

The table below sets forth an approximation of our exposure as a percentage of estimated net interest income for the next 12 month period using interest income and equity simulations. The simulations use projected repricing of assets and liabilities at March 31, 2017 on the basis of contractual maturities, anticipated repayments and scheduled rate adjustments. Prepayment rates can have a significant impact on the simulations. Because of the large percentage of loans we hold, rising or falling interest rates have a significant impact on the prepayment speeds of our earning assets that in turn affect the rate sensitivity position. When interest rates rise, prepayments tend to slow. When interest rates fall, prepayments tend to rise. Our asset sensitivity would be reduced if prepayments slowed and would increase if prepayments accelerated. While we believe such assumptions to be reasonable, there can be no assurance that assumed prepayment rates will occur.

The following table reflects the estimated effects of changes in interest rates on the present value of our equity at March 31, 2017 and on our projected net interest income from March 31, 2017 through March 31, 2018.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon their evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective for the purpose of ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In addition, based on that evaluation, no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is not involved in any pending legal proceedings other than routine legal proceedings occurring in the ordinary course of business. The Company’s management believes that such routine legal proceedings, in the aggregate, are immaterial to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

For information regarding the Company’s risk factors, see Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 24, 2017.

Basis of Accounting [Text Block]

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONSOLIDATION

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Wellesley Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Wellesley Bank (the “Bank”), the principal operating entity, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Wellesley Securities Corporation, which engages in the business of buying, selling and dealing in securities exclusively on its own behalf; Wellesley Investment Partners, LLC, formed to provide investment management services for individuals, not-for-profit entities and businesses; and Central Linden, LLC, to hold, manage and sell foreclosed real estate. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Assets under management at Wellesley Investment Partners, LLC are not included in these consolidated financial statements because they are not assets of the Company. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017 or for any other period.

LOAN POLICIES

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Loan Portfolio [Text Block]

NOTE 2 – LOAN POLICIES

The loan portfolio consists of real estate, commercial and other loans to the Company’s customers in our primary market areas in eastern Massachusetts. The ability of the Company’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the economy in general and the real estate and construction sectors within our markets.

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until maturity or pay-off, are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred loan origination fees or costs. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield using the interest method.

Interest is generally not accrued on loans which are identified as impaired or loans which are ninety days or more past due. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. Interest income previously accrued on such loans is reversed against current period interest income. Interest income on non-accrual loans is recognized only to the extent of interest payments received and is first applied to the outstanding principal balance when collectibility of principal is in doubt. Loans are returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured through sustained payment performance for at least six months.

Allowance for loan losses

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings as losses are estimated to have occurred. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of the loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The allowance consists of general, allocated and unallocated components.

General component

The general component is based on the following loan segments: residential real estate, commercial real estate, construction, commercial, home equity lines of credit and other consumer. Management considers a rolling average of historical losses for each segment based on a time frame appropriate to capture relevant loss data for each loan segment, generally three and 10 years. This historical loss factor is adjusted for the following qualitative factors: levels/trends in delinquencies; trends in volume; concentrations and terms of loans; level of collateral protection; effects of changes in risk selection and underwriting standards; experience/ability/depth of lending management and staff; and national and local economic trends and conditions. There were no significant changes to the Company’s policies or methodology pertaining to the general component of the allowance during 2017 or 2016.

The qualitative factor adjustments are determined based on the various risk characteristics of each loan segment. Risk characteristics relevant to each portfolio segment are as follows:

Residential real estate – The Company generally does not originate loans with a loan-to-value ratio greater than 80 percent and does not originate subprime loans. Most loans in this segment are collateralized by one-to-four family residential real estate and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower. The overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and housing prices, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.

Commercial real estate – Loans in this segment are primarily income-producing properties in the Company’s primary market areas in eastern Massachusetts. The underlying cash flows generated by the properties may be adversely impacted by a downturn in the economy as evidenced by increased vacancy rates, which in turn, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment. Management typically obtains rent rolls annually and continually monitors the cash flows of these loans.

Construction – Loans in this segment include speculative construction loans primarily on residential properties for which payment is derived from the sale of the property. Credit risk is affected by cost overruns, time to sell at an adequate price, and market conditions.    Residential construction loans in this segment also include loans to build one-to-four family owner-occupied properties which are subject to the same credit quality factors as residential real estate.

Commercial – Loans in this segment are made to businesses and are generally secured by assets of the business. Repayment is expected from the cash flows of the business. A weakened economy, and resultant decreased consumer spending, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.

Home equity lines of credit – Loans in this segment are collateralized by one-to-four family residential real estate and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower. The overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and housing prices, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.

Other consumer – Loans in this segment are generally unsecured and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower.

Allocated component

The allocated component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the fair value of the loan or, if the loan is collateral dependent, by the fair value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell. An allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value) of the impaired loan are lower than the carrying value of that loan. Large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify performing individual residential and consumer loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are subject to a troubled debt restructuring agreement.

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 classified as 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.

The Company periodically may agree to modify the contractual terms of loans. When a loan is modified and a concession is made to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty, the modification is considered a troubled debt restructuring ("TDR"). All TDRs are initially classified as impaired.

Unallocated component

An unallocated component is maintained to cover additional uncertainties in management’s estimation of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating allocated and general reserves in the portfolio.

NOTE 3 – COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, and gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the stockholders’ equity section of the consolidated balance sheets, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income (loss).

The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss and related tax effects are as follows:

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Text Block]

NOTE 4 – RECENT ACCOUNTING AND REGULATORY PRONOUNCEMENTS

Effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718). This update is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The adoption of this update did not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Receivables- Non-refundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20) which shortens the period of amortization of the premium on certain callable debt securities to the earliest call date. For the Company, these amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. Management elected to early adopt this ASU effective January 1, 2017 and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The amendments in this update create Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. The core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. For public companies, this ASU is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of this update will not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10), to address certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The key provision included in the ASU is that equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) will be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income and the elimination of the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost.  For public entities such as the Company, this ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. This update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires a lessee to record a right-to-use asset and liability representing the obligation to make lease payments for long-term leases. This ASU will be effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management does not expect the adoption of this update to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires entities to measure expected credit losses based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectibility of the reported amount. Credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities should be measured in a manner similar to current GAAP; however, recognized credit losses will be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. This ASU will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods. Management is currently evaluating the impact to the consolidated financial statements of adopting this update.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The amendments in this ASU provide cash flow statement classification guidance for certain areas where diversification existed in practice. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The adoption of this update will not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The amendments in this update require that in the statement of cash flows, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents are included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this update will not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such evaluations. At March 31, 2017, various debt securities have unrealized losses with aggregate depreciation of 1.8% from their aggregate amortized cost basis. These unrealized losses relate principally to the effect of interest rate changes on the fair value of debt securities and not an increase in credit risk of the issuers. As the Company does not intend to sell the securities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell the securities before recovery of their amortized cost, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2017.

Credit Quality Information

The Company utilizes an eleven-grade internal loan rating system for commercial real estate, construction and commercial loans.

Loans rated 1-4: Loans in these categories are considered “pass” rated loans with low-to-average risk.

Loans rated 5: Loans in this category are considered “special mention.” These loans are starting to show signs of potential weakness and are being closely monitored by management.

Loans rated 6: Loans in this category are considered “substandard.” Generally, a loan is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligors and/or the collateral pledged. There is a distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the weakness is not corrected.

Loans rated 7: Loans in this category are considered “doubtful.” Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, highly questionable and improbable.

Loans rated 8: Loans in this category are considered uncollectible or “loss” and of such little value that their continuance as loans is not warranted.

Loans rated 9: Loans in this category only include commercial loans under $25 thousand with no other outstandings or relationships with the Company.

Loans rated 10: Loans in this category include loans which otherwise require rating but which have not been rated, or loans for which the Company’s loan policy does not require rating.

Loans rated 11: Loans in this category include credit commitments/relationships that cannot be rated due to a lack of financial information or inaccurate financial information. If within 60 days of the assignment of an 11 rating information is still not available to allow a standard rating, the credit will be rated 6.

On an annual basis, or more often if needed, the Company formally reviews the ratings on all commercial real estate, construction and commercial loans. During each calendar year, the Company engages an independent third party to review a significant portion of loans within these segments. Management uses the results of these reviews as part of its annual review process. On a monthly basis, the Company reviews the residential real estate and consumer loan portfolio for credit quality primarily through the use of delinquency reports.

The following table presents the Company’s loans by risk rating:

FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Mar. 31, 2017

Financial Liabilities Fair Value Disclosure [Abstract]

Financial Instruments Disclosure [Text Block]

NOTE 7 – FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair value hierarchy

The Company groups its assets generally measured at fair value 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.

Level 1 – Valuation is based on quoted market prices in active exchange markets for identical assets and liabilities. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources.

Level 2 – Valuation is based on observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets and liabilities. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources.

Level 3 – Valuation is based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. Level 3 assets include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as those for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Transfers between levels are recognized at the end of a reporting period, if applicable.

Determination of fair value

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Fair value is 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. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures:

Cash, cash equivalents and certificates of deposit: The carrying amounts approximate fair values based on the short-term nature of the assets.

Securities available for sale: Fair value measurements are obtained from a third-party pricing service and are not adjusted by management. All securities are measured at fair value in Level 2 based on valuation models that consider standard input factors such as observable market data, benchmark yields, interest rate volatilities, broker/dealer quotes, credit spreads and new issue data.

Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock: The carrying value of FHLB stock is deemed to approximate fair value based on the redemption provisions of the FHLB of Boston.

Loans held for sale: Fair values are based on commitments in effect from investors or prevailing market prices.

Loans, net: For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or underlying collateral values, where applicable.

Deposits: The fair values disclosed for non-certificate deposit accounts are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies market interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

Short-term borrowings: The carrying amount of short-term borrowings approximates fair value, based on the short-term nature of the liabilities.

Long-term debt: The fair values of long-term debt are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current incremental borrowing rates in the market for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Subordinated debt: The fair values reported for subordinated debentures are based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rates used are representative of approximate rates currently offered on instruments with similar terms and maturities.

Accrued interest: The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.

Forward loan sale commitments and derivative loan commitments: The fair value of forward loan sale commitments and derivative loan commitments are based on fair values of the underlying mortgage loans, including servicing values as applicable. The fair value of derivative loan commitments also considers the probability of such commitments being exercised.

Off-balance sheet instruments: Fair values for off-balance-sheet lending commitments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The fair values of these instruments are considered immaterial.

Assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis

The Company may also be required, from time to time, to measure certain other financial assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These adjustments to fair value usually result from application of lower-of-cost-or-market (“LOCOM”) accounting or write-downs of individual assets. The following table summarizes the fair value hierarchy used to determine each adjustment and the carrying value of the related individual assets.

Loans held for sale (“LHFS”) are evaluated for losses associated with the application of LOCOM accounting. There were no loans held for sale at March 31, 2017. At March 31, 2016, a rise in market interest rates above contractual loan rates from the time LHFS were recorded is reflected as a reduction in the carrying value of the asset and a loss is recognized in current period earnings.

There are no liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Compensation and Employee Benefit Plans [Text Block]

NOTE 8 – EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN

The Bank maintains an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “ESOP”) to provide eligible employees the opportunity to own Company stock. This plan is a tax-qualified retirement plan for the benefit of all Company employees. Contributions are allocated to eligible participants on the basis of compensation, subject to federal tax limits.

The Company granted a loan to the ESOP for the purchase shares of the Company’s common stock on the closing date of the Company’s mutual to stock conversion in 2012. As of March 31, 2017, the ESOP held 186,337 shares or 7.50% of the common stock outstanding on that date. The loan obtained by the ESOP from the Company to purchase common stock is payable annually over 15 years at the rate of 3.25% per annum. The loan can be prepaid without penalty. Loan payments are expected to be funded by cash contributions from the Bank. The loan is secured by the shares purchased, which are held in a suspense account for allocation among participants as the loan is repaid. Cash dividends paid on allocated shares will be distributed to participants and cash dividends paid on unallocated shares will be used to repay the outstanding debt of the ESOP. Shares used as collateral to secure the loan are released and available for allocation to eligible employees as the principal and interest on the loan is paid.

Shares held by the ESOP at March 31, 2017 include the following:

Allocated	57,955
Committed to be allocated	3,209
Unallocated	125,173
	186,337

The fair value of unallocated shares was $3.3 million at March 31, 2017.

Total compensation expense recognized in connection with the ESOP for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $88 thousand and $59 thousand, respectively.

NOTE 9 – EQUITY INCENTIVE PLANS

Under the Company’s 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Equity Incentive Plan”), effective July 27, 2016, the Company may grant restricted stock awards to its employees and directors for up to 75,000 shares of its common stock. A restricted stock award (the “award”) is a grant of shares of Company common stock for no consideration, subject to a vesting schedule or the satisfaction of market conditions or performance criteria. Awarded shares are held in reserve for each grantee by the Company’s transfer agent, and will be issued from previously authorized but unissued shares upon vesting. The fair value of the stock awards, based on the market price at the grant date, will be recognized over the five-year vesting period. On October 1, 2016, the Board of Directors granted stock awards of 26,000 to certain management, employees, and directors.

Under the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2012 Equity Incentive Plan”), the Company granted stock options to its employees and directors in the form of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options totaling 231,894 shares of its common stock. The exercise price of each stock option was not less than the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, and the maximum term of each option is 10 years from the date of each award. The vesting period is five years from the date of grant, with vesting at 20% per year.

Under the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan, the Company also granted stock awards to management, employees and directors. Awarded shares are held in reserve for each grantee by the Company’s transfer agent, and will be issued from previously authorized but unissued shares upon vesting. The fair value of the stock awards, based on the market price at the grant date, is recognized over the five-year vesting period.

The Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan was terminated upon approval of the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan.

Stock Options

A summary of option activity under the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan for the three months ended March 31, 2017 is presented below:

For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, compensation expense applicable to the stock options was $53 thousand, and the recognized tax benefit related to this expense was $10 thousand and $9 thousand, respectively.

Unrecognized compensation expense for non-vested stock options totaled $187 thousand as of March 31, 2017, which will be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of 1.01 years.

Stock Awards

There was no activity in non-vested restricted stock awards under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan or the 2012 Equity Incentive Plan for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, compensation expense applicable to the stock awards was $101 thousand and $74 thousand, respectively, and the recognized tax benefit related to this expense was $40 thousand and $30 thousand, respectively.

Unrecognized compensation expense for non-vested restricted stock totaled $788 thousand as of March 31, 2017, which will be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of 2.95 years.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share [Text Block]

NOTE 10 – EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per share represents income available to common stockholders 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, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Unallocated ESOP shares are not deemed outstanding for earnings per share calculations. Under the Company’s 2012 and 2016 Equity Incentive Plans, stock awards contain non-forfeitable dividend rights. Accordingly, these shares are considered outstanding for computation of basic earnings per share. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate to outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards and are determined using the treasury stock method.

Earnings per common share have been computed as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2017		2016
	(In thousands, except per share data)
Net income applicable to common stock	$	881	$	732

Average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate basic earnings per common share		2,358		2,319
Effect of dilutive stock options		84		21
Average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate diluted earnings per share		2,442		2,340
Earnings per common share:
Basic	$	0.37	$	0.32
Diluted	$	0.36	$	0.31

All options were included in the computations of diluted earnings per share at March 31, 2017.

Options for 43,000 shares were not included in the computations of diluted earnings per share because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Anti-dilutive shares are common stock equivalents with exercise prices in excess of the average market value of the Company’s stock for the periods presented.

LOAN POLICIES (Policies)

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2017

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Loans and Leases Receivable, Allowance for Loan Losses Policy [Policy Text Block]

LOAN POLICIES

The loan portfolio consists of real estate, commercial and other loans to the Company’s customers in our primary market areas in eastern Massachusetts. The ability of the Company’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the economy in general and the real estate and construction sectors within our markets.

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until maturity or pay-off, are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred loan origination fees or costs. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield using the interest method.

Interest is generally not accrued on loans which are identified as impaired or loans which are ninety days or more past due. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. Interest income previously accrued on such loans is reversed against current period interest income. Interest income on non-accrual loans is recognized only to the extent of interest payments received and is first applied to the outstanding principal balance when collectibility of principal is in doubt. Loans are returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured through sustained payment performance for at least six months.

Allowance for loan losses

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings as losses are estimated to have occurred. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of the loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The allowance consists of general, allocated and unallocated components.

General component

The general component is based on the following loan segments: residential real estate, commercial real estate, construction, commercial, home equity lines of credit and other consumer. Management considers a rolling average of historical losses for each segment based on a time frame appropriate to capture relevant loss data for each loan segment, generally three and 10 years. This historical loss factor is adjusted for the following qualitative factors: levels/trends in delinquencies; trends in volume; concentrations and terms of loans; level of collateral protection; effects of changes in risk selection and underwriting standards; experience/ability/depth of lending management and staff; and national and local economic trends and conditions. There were no significant changes to the Company’s policies or methodology pertaining to the general component of the allowance during 2017 or 2016.

The qualitative factor adjustments are determined based on the various risk characteristics of each loan segment. Risk characteristics relevant to each portfolio segment are as follows:

Residential real estate – The Company generally does not originate loans with a loan-to-value ratio greater than 80 percent and does not originate subprime loans. Most loans in this segment are collateralized by one-to-four family residential real estate and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower. The overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and housing prices, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.

Commercial real estate – Loans in this segment are primarily income-producing properties in the Company’s primary market areas in eastern Massachusetts. The underlying cash flows generated by the properties may be adversely impacted by a downturn in the economy as evidenced by increased vacancy rates, which in turn, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment. Management typically obtains rent rolls annually and continually monitors the cash flows of these loans.

Construction – Loans in this segment include speculative construction loans primarily on residential properties for which payment is derived from the sale of the property. Credit risk is affected by cost overruns, time to sell at an adequate price, and market conditions.    Residential construction loans in this segment also include loans to build one-to-four family owner-occupied properties which are subject to the same credit quality factors as residential real estate.

Commercial – Loans in this segment are made to businesses and are generally secured by assets of the business. Repayment is expected from the cash flows of the business. A weakened economy, and resultant decreased consumer spending, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.

Home equity lines of credit – Loans in this segment are collateralized by one-to-four family residential real estate and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower. The overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and housing prices, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment.

Other consumer – Loans in this segment are generally unsecured and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower.

Allocated component

The allocated component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the fair value of the loan or, if the loan is collateral dependent, by the fair value of the collateral, less estimated costs to sell. An allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value) of the impaired loan are lower than the carrying value of that loan. Large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify performing individual residential and consumer loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are subject to a troubled debt restructuring agreement.

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 classified as 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.

The Company periodically may agree to modify the contractual terms of loans. When a loan is modified and a concession is made to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty, the modification is considered a troubled debt restructuring ("TDR"). All TDRs are initially classified as impaired.

Unallocated component

An unallocated component is maintained to cover additional uncertainties in management’s estimation of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating allocated and general reserves in the portfolio.
