Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

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

1.    Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

The financial statements include accounts of Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), a stock holding company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Rhinebeck Bank (the “Bank”), a New York chartered stock savings bank. The primary purpose of the Company is to act as a holding company for the Bank. The Bank provides a full range of banking and financial services to consumer and commercial customers through its eleven branches and two representative offices located in Dutchess, Ulster, Orange, and Albany counties. Financial services, including investment advisory and financial product sales, are offered through a division of the Bank doing business as Rhinebeck Asset Management (“RAM”).

The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods and are of a normal and recurring nature. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020 or for any other period.

For more information regarding the Company’s significant accounting policies, see the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As of September 30, 2020, the critical accounting policies of the Company have not changed materially from those disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, with the exception of the adoption of the equity incentive plan by the Company.  See Item 2. – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation – Critical Accounting Policies.”

Basis of Financial Statements Presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and general practices within the banking industry. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial condition and reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of securities and other real estate owned, the evaluation of investment securities for other-than-temporary impairment, the evaluation of goodwill for impairment, the valuation of deferred tax assets and the determination of pension obligations.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior year consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.

COVID-19

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a global pandemic, which continues to spread throughout the United States and around the world. The

7

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

declaration of the global pandemic indicated that almost all public commerce and related business activities were, to varying degrees, curtailed with the goal of decreasing the rate of new infections. The outbreak of COVID-19 adversely impacted a broad range of industries in which the Company’s customers operate and impaired their ability to fulfill their financial obligations to the Company to a degree. In March, the Federal Open Market Committee brought the target range for the federal funds rate to near zero. These reductions in interest rates and other economic effects of the COVID-19 outbreak has and will likely continue to adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. As a result of the spread of COVID-19, economic uncertainties have arisen which are likely to negatively impact net interest income, noninterest income, the provision for loan losses and bad debts. Other financial impacts could occur though such potential impacts are unknown at this time.

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (“Topic 842”), which created FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842 (“ASC 842”) and is intended to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. The principal change required by ASC 842 related to lessee accounting, is that for operating leases, a lessee is required to (1) recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, in the statement of financial position, (2) recognize a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term generally on a straight-line basis, and (3) classify all cash payments within operating activities in the statement of cash flows. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. ASC 842 also changes disclosure requirements related to leasing activities and requires certain qualitative disclosures along with specific quantitative disclosures. ASC 842 also provides an optional transition method for adoption, under which an entity initially applies ASC 842 at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. Consequently, an entity's reporting for the comparative periods presented in the financial statements in which it adopts ASC 842 will continue to be in accordance with current GAAP. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 842 effective January 1, 2020 utilizing the optional transition method and did not restate comparative periods. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under ASC 842's transition guidance, which allows the Company to carryforward its historical lease classifications and its assessment as to whether a contract is or contains a lease. The Company elected to not recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. Upon adoption, the Company recorded an increase in other assets and an increase in other liabilities of approximately $6,700, respectively. See Note 10 of the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 on “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”. This ASU requires credit losses on most financial assets be measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments to be measured using an expected credit loss model (referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model). Under this model, entities will estimate credit losses over the entire contractual term of the instrument (considering estimated prepayments, but not expected extensions or modifications unless reasonable expectation of a troubled debt restructuring exists) from the date of initial recognition of that instrument. The measurement of expected credit losses is based upon relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. On October 16, 2019, the FASB approved a delay for conversion to the CECL methodology to January 2023 for smaller reporting companies, other public business entities, private companies and non-profits; although early adoption is permitted in 2019. While the Company is currently assessing the effect of ASU No. 2016-13 and has engaged with a software vendor to assist in its efforts; it is unlikely that the Company will early adopt this ASU.

Emerging Growth Company Status

As an emerging growth company, the Company may delay adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards until such date that the standards are required to be adopted by non-issuer companies. If such standards would not apply to non-issuer companies, no deferral would be applicable. The Company intends to take advantage of the benefits of the extended transition periods allowed under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act.

Accordingly, the Company’s consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to those of public companies that adopt new or revised financial accounting standards as of an earlier date. The effective dates of the recent accounting standards reflect those that relate to non-issuer companies.

At September 30, 2020, the Company had 32 individual available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position with unrealized losses totaling $230 with an aggregate depreciation of 0.80% from the Company’s amortized cost.

Management believes that none of the unrealized losses on available for sale securities are other-than-temporary because substantially all of the unrealized losses in the Company’s investment portfolio relate to market interest rate changes on debt and mortgage-backed securities issued either directly by the government or from government sponsored enterprises. The Company does not intend to sell the securities and it is not likely that the Company will be required to sell the securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity; therefore, the Company did not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2020.

The amortized cost and fair value of available for sale debt securities at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, by contractual maturities, are presented below. Actual maturities of mortgage-backed securities may differ from contractual maturities because the mortgages underlying the securities may be called or repaid without any penalties.

A loan is considered impaired when based on current information and events it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due from the borrower in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan. Impaired loans include nonperforming loans and loans modified as troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”). Loan modifications, which resulted in these loans being considered TDRs, are primarily in the form of rate concessions and extensions of maturity dates that are made specifically due to hardships experienced by the customer. The Company does not generally recognize interest income on a loan in an impaired status. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the same three loans totaling $1,600 and $1,659, included in impaired loans, were identified as TDRs. There were no new TDRs in 2019 or the first nine months of 2020. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, all TDR loans were performing in accordance with their restructured terms. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had no commitments to advance additional funds to borrowers under TDR loans.

The Company services certain loans that it has sold without recourse to third parties. The aggregate balances of loans serviced for others were $289,538 and $270,730 as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

The balance of capitalized servicing rights, included in other assets at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, were $2,319 and $2,226, respectively. Fair value exceeds carrying value. No impairment charges related to servicing rights were recognized during the period ended September 30, 2020 or the year ended December 31, 2019.

5.    Goodwill

The carrying value of goodwill did not change and was $1,410, while the accumulated impairment remained at $1,116, at both September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

During the third quarter, the Company considered the facts, circumstances and general economic declines as a result of COVID-19 and accordingly, performed a qualitative impairment analysis. The Company determined that no write-down was required for the first nine months of 2020 or 2019.

6.    Intangible Assets

The changes in the carrying value of customer list intangible are as follows:

The value assigned to customer list intangibles is based upon a multiple of the amount of commission revenue generated from the identified premiums. The customer lists are expected to have useful lives of 13 years and 4 months. The Company recognized $32 and $43 of amortization expense related to its intangible assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019, respectively. The Company recognized $11 of amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

Impairment exists when a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds it fair value. At September 30, 2020, the Company’s reporting unit had positive equity and in the third quarter, the Company elected to perform a qualitative assessment and determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value,  resulting in no impairment.  

As of September 30, 2020, the future amortization expense for amortizable intangible assets for the respective years is as follows:

Borrowings under this line require collateralization through the pledge of specific loans and securities. At September 30, 2020 and

December 31, 2019, the Bank had pledged assets of $176,487 and $168,230, respectively. At September 30, 2020, the Bank also had structured borrowings with the FHLB in the amount of $54,857.

The Bank is required to maintain an investment in capital stock of the FHLB, as collateral, in an amount equal to a certain percentage of its outstanding debt. FHLB stock is considered restricted stock and is carried at cost. The Bank evaluates for impairment based on the ultimate recovery ability of the cost. No impairment was recognized at either September 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.

Subordinated Debt

As part of the reorganization completed on January 16, 2019, the Company assumed both the common securities and related obligations of RSB Capital Trust I (“Trust”). The Trust, which has no independent assets or operations, was formed in 2005 for the sole purpose of issuing trust preferred securities and investing the proceeds thereof in an equivalent amount of junior subordinated debentures. The proceeds from the issuance of the trust preferred securities were down-streamed to the Bank and are currently considered Tier 1 capital for purposes of determining the Bank’s capital ratios. The trust securities bear interest at 3-month LIBOR plus 2.00%. The duration of the Trust is 30 years.

The subordinated debt securities of $5,155 are unsecured obligations of the Company and are subordinate and junior in right of payment to all present and future senior indebtedness of the Company. The Company has entered into a guarantee, which together with its obligations under the subordinated debt securities and the declaration of trust governing the Trust, including its obligations to pay costs, expenses, debts and liabilities, provides a full and unconditional guarantee of amounts on the capital securities. The subordinated debentures, which bear interest at 3-month LIBOR plus 2.00% (2.26% at September 30, 2020 and 3.91% at December 31, 2019) mature on May 23, 2035.

Other Borrowings

The Bank was a participant in the Federal Reserve’s PPP Lending Facility which allowed us to present the PPP loans we originated as collateral for 100% principal funding at the Federal Reserve’s discount window. The term

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

of the borrowings under the lending facility mirrored the actual maturity of the underlying collateral and had a fixed interest rate of 0.35%. During the second quarter, we received $70,100 in funding which was repaid in full on July 2, 2020.

The Bank also has an unsecured, uncommitted $10,000 line of credit with Zions Bank. There were no advances outstanding under this line of credit at either September 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.

9.  Employee Benefits

Pension Plan

The Bank maintains a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all of its employees 21 years of age or older who had completed at least one year of service as of September 30, 2012, the effective date on which, the Board of Directors of the Bank voted to freeze the defined benefit plan.

The expected long-term rate of return on plan assets has been determined by applying historical average investment returns from published indexes relating to the current allocation of assets in the plan. Plan assets are invested in pooled separate accounts consisting of underlying investments in eleven diversified investment funds.

As of September 30, 2020 the investment funds included seven equity funds and four fixed income funds comprised of three bond funds and a real estate fund, each with its own investment objectives, investment strategies and risks, as detailed in the Company’s investment policy statement. The Company determines the appropriate strategic asset allocation versus plan liabilities, as governed by the investment policy statement.

The assets of the plan are invested under the supervision of the Company’s investment committee in accordance with the investment policy statement. The investment options of the plan are chosen in a manner consistent with generally accepted standards of fiduciary responsibility. The investment performance of the Company’s individual investment managers, with the assistance of the Company’s investment consultant, is monitored on a quarterly basis and is reviewed at least annually relative to the objectives and guidelines as stated in the Company’s investment policy statement.

The pooled separate accounts are valued at the net asset per unit based on either the observable net asset value of the underlying investment or the net asset value of the underlying pool of securities. Net asset value is based on the value of the underlying assets owned by the fund, minus its liabilities and then divided by the number of shares outstanding. Pooled separate accounts were previously classified within level 2 of the valuation hierarchy, however, new guidance interpretation has prompted us to reclassify our input level to level 1 as the net asset value has a readily determinable fair value in a manner that is similar to that of a mutual fund.

For a detailed disclosure on the Bank’s pension and employee benefits plans, please refer to Note 10 of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Executive Long-Term Incentive and Retention Plan

The Bank maintains an Executive Long-Term Incentive and Retention Plan (the “Executive Plan”). Participation in the Executive Plan is limited to officers of the Company designated as participants by the Board of Directors and who filed a properly completed and executed participation agreement in accordance with the terms of the Executive Plan. Under the Executive Plan, the Board of Directors may grant annual incentive awards equal to a percentage of a participant’s base salary at the rate in effect on the last day of the Plan year, as determined by the Board of Directors based on the attainment of criteria established annually by the Board of Directors. Incentive awards under the Executive Plan are credited to the participant’s incentive benefit account as of the last day of the Executive Plan year to which the award relates and earn interest at a rate determined annually by the Board of Directors. Participants vest in their benefit accounts in accordance with the vesting schedule approved by the Board of Directors, which ranges from one to five years of service. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $1,214 and $1,163, respectively, is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities, which represents the cumulative amounts deferred and earnings thereon. The Company recognized expenses of $419 and $405 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, related to this plan and which are included in salaries and employee benefits expense in the consolidated statements of income.

Group Term Replacement Plan

Under the terms of the “Group Term Replacement Plan”, the Company provides postretirement life insurance benefits to certain officers. The liability related to these postretirement benefits is being accrued over the individual participants’ service period and aggregated $1,373 and $1,330, respectively, at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company recognized expenses of $43 and $40 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, respectively, related to this plan which are included in salaries and employee benefits expense in the consolidated statements of income.

Other Director and Officer Postretirement Benefits

The Company has individual fee continuation agreements with certain directors and a supplemental retirement agreement with an executive officer which provide for fixed postretirement benefits to be paid to the directors and the officer, or their beneficiaries, for periods ranging from 15 to 20 years. In addition, the Company has agreements with certain directors which provide for certain postretirement life insurance benefits. The liability related to these postretirement benefits is being accrued over the individual participants’ service period and aggregated $2,140 and $2,123, at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The Company recognized expenses of $65 and $67 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, related to these benefits which are included in other noninterest expenses in the consolidated statements of income.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

On January 1, 2019, the Bank established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) to provide eligible employees the opportunity to own Company stock. The plan is a tax-qualified retirement plan for the benefit of Bank employees. On January 16, 2019, the Company granted a loan to the ESOP for the purchase of 436,425 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $10.00 per share. The loan obtained by the ESOP from the Company is payable annually over 20 years at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate, reset annually on January 1st (4.75% at January 1, 2020). Loan payments are 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. The balance of the ESOP loan at September 30, 2020 was $4,229.

Share-Based Compensation Plan

On May 26, 2020, stockholders of the Company approved the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “EIP”).  The  EIP authorizes the issuance or delivery to participants of up to 763,743 shares of Rhinebeck Bancorp common stock pursuant to grants of incentive and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units.  Of this number, the maximum number of shares of Rhinebeck Bancorp common stock that may be issued under the EIP pursuant to the exercise of stock options is 545,531 shares, and the maximum number of shares of Rhinebeck Bancorp common stock that may be issued as restricted stock awards or restricted stock units is 218,212 shares.  These amounts represent 4.90% and 1.96%, respectively, of the number of shares of common stock issued in the stock offering of Rhinebeck Bancorp, including the shares issued to Rhinebeck Bancorp, MHC.

Pursuant to terms of the EIP, the Board of Directors has granted restricted stock and stock options to employees and directors, effective August 25, 2020. All of the awards granted to date vest annually over a three-year period from the date of the grant and the maximum term of each option is ten years. As of September 30, 2020, there were 112,146 stock options and 48,443 restricted stock awards that remain available for future grants.

The fair value of each option award for the EIP is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option-Pricing Model. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of a peer group of comparable SEC-reporting bank holding companies. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s expectation of dividend payouts. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the date of grant. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur.

The options did not have an aggregate intrinsic value, which fluctuates based on changes in the fair market value of the Company’s stock, at September 30, 2020, as the closing stock price of $6.32 was less than the weighted average exercise price. The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (i.e., the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of period and the weighted-average exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on September 30, 2020.

10.  Leases

As of September 30, 2020, the Company leases real estate for seven branch offices under various lease agreements. All of our leases are classified as operating leases, and therefore, were previously not recognized on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial condition. With the adoption of Topic 842, operating lease agreements are required to be recognized on the consolidated statements of  financial condition as a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a corresponding lease liability.

The calculated amount of the ROU assets and lease liabilities are impacted by the length of the lease term and the discount rate used to present value the minimum lease payments. The Company’s leases have maturities which range from 2020 to 2035, some of which include lessee options to extend the lease term. If  the Company considers the exercising of a renewal option to be reasonably certain, the Company will include the extended term in the calculation of the ROU asset and lease liability. The weighted average remaining life of the lease terms for these leases was 12.9 years as of September 30, 2020. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate, the rate of interest to borrow on a collateralized basis for a similar term, at the lease commencement date. The Company utilized a weighted average discount rate of 2.61% in determining the lease liability as of September 30, 2020.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, total operating lease costs were $441 and were included in occupancy and other expense. Deferred rent liability was $185 at September 30, 2020 and $213 at December 31, 2019. The right-of-use asset, included in other assets, was $6,407 and the corresponding lease liability, included in accrued expenses and other liabilities was $6,407 as of September 30, 2020.

Future minimum payments for operating leases with initial or remaining terms of one year or more as of September 30, 2020 were as follows:

Legal Matters

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings which have arisen in the normal course of business. Management believes that resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Employment Agreements

The Company has entered into employment agreements with certain officers. The agreements provide for base salaries and incentive compensation based on performance criteria outlined in the agreements. The agreements also provide for insurance and various other benefits.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit, which include new loan commitments and undisbursed portions of construction loans and other lines of credit. These financial instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the statements of financial condition. The contractual amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.

The contractual amounts of commitments to extend credit represent the amounts of potential loss should the contract be fully drawn upon, the customer defaults and the value of any existing collateral become worthless. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent off-balance sheet credit risk are as follows:

$

$

94,884

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Since these commitments could expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include residential and commercial property, deposits and securities.

12.  Regulatory Matters

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

The final rules implementing the BASEL Committee on Banking Supervisor’s Capital Guidance for U.S. Banks (BASEL III) became effective for the Bank on January 1, 2016. Compliance with the requirements was phased in over a four year period with full compliance as of January 1, 2019. All presented capital ratios are calculated using BASEL III rules.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the tables below) of total, common equity Tier 1 and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, that the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

The most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) categorized the Bank as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, common equity Tier 1, Tier I risk-based and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no conditions or events since then, which management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

The Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios were:

13.  Fair Value

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. A description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value and for estimating fair value for financial and non-financial instruments not recorded at fair value, is set forth below.

Cash and Due from Banks, Accrued Interest Receivable and Mortgagors’ Escrow Accounts

The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Available for Sale Securities

Where quoted prices are available in an active market for identical securities, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models (i.e., matrix pricing) or quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics and are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. Examples of such instruments include government agency bonds, mortgage-backed securities and municipal bonds. The Company does not have any Level 3 securities for which significant unobservable inputs are utilized. Available for sale securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.

FHLB Stock

The carrying value of FHLB stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the FHLB.

Loans

Loans receivable are carried at cost. For variable rate loans which reprice frequently and have no significant change in credit risk, carrying values are a reasonable estimate of fair values, adjusted for credit losses inherent in the portfolios. The fair value of fixed rate loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the year end rates, estimated using local market data, at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities, adjusted for credit losses inherent in the portfolios. The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, nonrecurring fair value adjustments to collateral-dependent impaired loans are recorded to reflect partial write-downs based on the observable market price or current appraised value of collateral. The fair value of loans held for sale is estimated using quoted market prices.

Other Real Estate Owned

Other real estate owned represents real estate acquired through foreclosure and is carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated selling costs. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is utilized in the fair value measurements.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income.

29

Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

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

Deposits

Deposit liabilities are carried at cost. The fair value of NOW, savings and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of time certificates of deposit is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities estimated using local market data to a schedule of aggregated expected maturities on such deposits.

Advances from the FHLB

The fair value of the advances is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies current FHLB interest rates for advances of similar maturity to a schedule of maturities of such advances.

Subordinated Debt

Based on the floating rate characteristic of these instruments, the carrying value is considered to approximate fair value.

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 standings. Such amounts are not significant.

Fair value is generally through independent appraisals of the underlying collateral that generally include various level 3 inputs which are not identifiable.

(2)

Appraisals may be adjusted by management for qualitative factors such as economic conditions and estimated liquidation expenses. The range of liquidation expenses and other appraisal adjustments are presented as a percent of the appraised value.

(3)

Estimated costs to sell.

The Company discloses fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the statements of financial condition, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. Certain financial instruments are excluded from disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company.

The estimated fair value amounts for 2020 and 2019 have been measured as of their respective reporting dates and have not been reevaluated or updated for purposes of these financial statements subsequent to those respective dates. As such, the estimated fair values of these financial instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than amounts reported at each year-end.

The information presented should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only required for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to the wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful.

14.  Revenue Recognition

The Company generally fully satisfies its performance obligations on its contracts with customers as services are rendered and the transaction prices are typically fixed; charged either on a periodic basis or based on activity. Because performance obligations are satisfied as services are rendered and the transaction prices are fixed, there is little judgment involved in applying ASC Topic 606 that significantly affects the determination of the amount and timing of revenue from contracts with customers. The main types of revenue contracts included in non-interest income within the consolidated statements of operations are as follows:

Fees for services to customers include service charges on deposits which are included as liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial condition and consist of transaction-based fees: stop payment fees, Automated Clearing House (ACH) fees, account maintenance fees, wire fees, official check fees and overdraft services fees for various retail and business checking customers. These fees are charged as earned on the day of the transaction or within the month of the service. Service charges on deposits are withdrawn directly from the customer’s account balance. ATM and debit card fees are recognized at the time the transaction is executed as that is the point in time the Company fulfills the customer’s request. Sales of checks to depositors earn fees as a contractual discount to the retail price of the sale from a third-party provider. These fees earned are remitted by the third-party to the Company quarterly.

The Company earns interchange fee income from credit/debit cardholder transactions conducted through MasterCard payment networks. Interchange fees from cardholder transactions represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value and are recognized monthly, concurrently with the transaction processing services provided to the cardholder within the month.

The Company records a gain or loss from the sale of OREO when control of the property transfers to the buyer, which generally occurs at the time of an executed deed at which time the OREO asset is derecognized and the gain or loss on the sale is recorded. Rental income received from leased OREO property is recognized during the month it is earned.

Retail brokerage and advisory fee income is accrued monthly to properly record the revenues in the month they are earned. Advisory fees are collected in advance on a quarterly basis. These advisory fees are recorded in the first month of the quarter for which the service is being performed. Investments into mutual funds and annuities

33

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

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

generate fees that are recorded as revenue at the time of the initial sale. In subsequent years, the mutual funds and variable annuities generate recurring fees (referred to as 12B-1 fees) that are paid in advance on the anniversary of the original transaction. Fees that are transaction based are recognized at the point in time that the transaction is executed (i.e. trade date). Life insurance products are sold on a commission basis that generates a fee that is recorded as revenue within the month of the approved transaction.

Other income includes rental income, mortgage origination and service fees and late fees on serviced mortgages. All items are recorded as revenue within the month that the service is provided.

16.  Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share represent income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in a manner similar to that of basic earnings per share except that the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding is increased to include the number of incremental shares (computed using the treasury method) that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents (such as options) were issued during the period. Unearned ESOP shares are not deemed outstanding for earnings per share calculations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, there were 433,385 options and 169,769 shares of nonvested restricted stock outstanding at an average weighted price of $6.57 per share that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because to do so would be anti-dilutive. There were no potentially dilutive common stock equivalents for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

17.  Subsequent Events

ASC 855, Subsequent Events, establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued. Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after September 30, 2020 through the date of the issued financial statements.

On October 26, 2020, the Bank and ConnectOne Bank, the wholly-owned subsidiary of ConnectOne Bancorp, Inc., executed a purchase and assumption agreement (the “Agreement”) providing for the acquisition by the Bank of the two ConnectOne branch offices located in Monroe and Warwick, New York.  In accordance with the Agreement, the Bank will assume certain customer deposits and certain other assets and liabilities associated with those branch offices.  The transaction is expected to close late in the fourth quarter of 2020 or early in the first quarter of 2021, subject to regulatory approval and other customary closing conditions.  

Other than what is noted above, no other events meeting the requirements of disclosure arose during the time period from September 30, 2020 through the date of the issued financial statements.

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

General

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 is intended to assist in understanding the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and the Bank. The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and the notes thereto appearing in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements, which can be identified by the use of words such as “estimate,” “project,” “believe,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “seek,” “expect,” "intend," “predict,” “forecast,” “improve,” “continue,” "will," "would," "should," "could," "may" and words of similar meaning. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

statements of our goals, intentions and expectations;

statements regarding our business plans, prospects, growth and operating strategies;

statements regarding the quality of our loan and investment portfolios; and

estimates of our risks and future costs and benefits.

These forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs and expectations of our management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change. Forward looking statements, by their nature, are subject to risks and uncertainties.

The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements:

general economic conditions, either nationally or in our market area, that are worse than expected;

changes in the level and direction of loan delinquencies and charge-offs and changes in estimates of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses;

our ability to access cost-effective funding;

fluctuations in real estate values and both residential and commercial real estate market conditions;

demand for loans and deposits in our market area;

our ability to continue to implement our business strategies;

competition among depository and other financial institutions;

inflation and changes in market interest rates that reduce our margins and yields, reduce the fair value of financial instruments or reduce our volume of loan originations, or increase the level of defaults, losses and prepayments on loans we have made and make whether held in portfolio or sold in the secondary market;

37


adverse changes in the securities markets;

changes in laws or government regulations or policies affecting financial institutions, including changes in regulatory fees and capital requirements;

our ability to manage interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk and operational risk;

our ability to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth opportunities;

the imposition of tariffs or other domestic or international governmental polices impacting the value of the agricultural or other products of our borrowers;

our ability to successfully integrate into our operations any assets, liabilities or systems we may acquire, as well as new management personnel or customers, and our ability to realize related revenue synergies and cost savings within expected time frames and any goodwill charges related thereto;

changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits;

changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the bank regulatory agencies, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board;

our ability to retain key employees;

our compensation expense associated with equity allocated or awarded to our employees; and

changes in the financial condition, results of operations or prospects of issuers of securities that we own.

Further, given its ongoing and dynamic nature, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our business. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including when the coronavirus can be controlled and abated and whether the gradual reopening of businesses will result in a meaningful increase in economic activity. As the result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related adverse local and national economic consequences, we could be subject to any of the following risks, any of which could have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations:

demand for our products and services may decline, making it difficult to grow assets and income;
if the economy is unable to substantially reopen, and high levels of unemployment continue for an extended period of time, loan delinquencies, problem assets, and foreclosures may increase, resulting in increased charges and reduced income;
collateral for loans, especially real estate, may decline in value, which could cause loan losses to increase;
our allowance for loan losses may have to be increased if borrowers experience financial difficulties, which will adversely affect our net income;
the net worth and liquidity of loan guarantors may decline, impairing their ability to honor commitments to us;
as the result of the decline in the Federal Reserve Board’s target federal funds rate to near 0%, the yield on our assets may decline to a greater extent than the decline in our cost of interest-bearing liabilities, reducing our net interest margin and spread and reducing net income;

38


our cyber security risks are increased as the result of an increase in the number of employees working remotely;
FDIC premiums may increase if the agency experience additional resolution costs; and
we may face litigation, regulatory enforcement and reputation risk as a result of our participation in the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Paycheck Participation Program (“PPP”) and the risk that the SBA may not fund some or all PPP loan guaranties.

Moreover, our future success and profitability substantially depends on the management skills of our executive officers and directors, many of whom have held officer and director positions with us for many years. The unanticipated loss or unavailability of key employees due to the outbreak could harm our ability to operate our business or execute our business strategy. We may not be successful in finding and integrating suitable successors in the event of key employee loss or unavailability.

Additional factors that may affect our results are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 under the heading “Risk Factors.” Because of these and other uncertainties, our actual future results may be materially different from the results indicated by these forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on such statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

For a detailed disclosure regarding the Company’s critical accounting policies, see Part 2, Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operationsin the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As of September 30, 2020, the critical accounting policies of the Company have not changed materially from those disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, with the exception of an additional disclosure for the equity incentive plan as stated below.

The Company maintains an equity incentive plan to provide for issuance or granting of shares of common stock for stock options or restricted stock. The Company has recorded stock-based employee compensation cost using the fair value method as allowed under generally accepted accounting principles. Management estimated the fair values of all option grants using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Management estimated the expected life of the options using the simplified method as allowed under generally accepted accounting principles. The risk-free rate was determined utilizing the treasury yield for the expected life of the option contract.

Impact of COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic in the United States is expected to continue to have a complex and significant adverse impact on the economy, the banking industry and the Company in future periods, all subject to a high degree of uncertainty.

Effects on Our Market Areas.

Our commercial and consumer banking products and services are offered primarily in the Hudson Valley of New York, where individual and governmental responses to the COVID-19 pandemic have led to a broad curtailment of economic activity beginning in March 2020. On that date, the Governor announced a statewide stay-at-home order, also known as the NYS on PAUSE Program, with a mandate that all non-essential workers work from home and only businesses declared as essential by the program were allowed to stay open. As cases of COVID-19 declined, New York began a phased-in reopening with the Hudson Valley reaching Phase 1 reopening on May 26, 2020 and reaching the final Phase 4 on July 7, 2020. Even with the Phase 4 reopening business operations remain limited and many people still engage in limited activities. As a result of the pandemic, the state has experienced an increase in unemployment levels from an average of 3.7% in December of 2019 to 9.7% as of September 30, 2020.

39


Policy and Regulatory Developments.

Federal, state and local governments and regulatory authorities have enacted a range of policy responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the following:

The Federal Reserve decreased the range for the federal funds target rate by 0.5 percent on March 3, 2020, and by another 1.0 percent on March 16, 2020, reaching a current range of 0.0 - 0.25 percent.

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”)  Act, which established a $2 trillion economic stimulus package, including cash payments to individuals, supplemental unemployment insurance benefits and a $349 billion loan program (later increased to $660 billion) administered through the PPP. Under the PPP, small businesses, sole proprietorships, independent contractors and self-employed individuals may apply for loans from existing SBA lenders and other approved regulated lenders that enroll in the program, subject to numerous limitations and eligibility criteria. The Bank is participating as a lender in the PPP. In addition, the CARES Act provides financial institutions the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under GAAP related to TDRs for a limited period of time to account for the effects of COVID-19.

On April 7, 2020, federal banking regulators issued a revised Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions, which, among other things, encouraged financial institutions to work prudently with borrowers who are or may be unable to meet their contractual payment obligations because of the effects of COVID-19, and stated that institutions generally do not need to categorize COVID-19-related modifications that meet certain criteria as TDRs and that the agencies will not direct supervised institutions to automatically categorize all COVID-19-related loan modifications as TDRs.

Pandemic Operational Preparations & Status.

Since mid-March, the Company and the Bank have felt the impact of this global pandemic. In response to the state of emergency, the Bank had temporarily suspended lobby services, which were re-opened on June 1, 2020.  Drive-thru, mobile, and online banking had become the Bank’s primary channels of serving customers during that time and remain important channels as New York State starts to move through phases of reopening. Various operational measures remain in effect to encourage social distancing and enhanced cleaning and sanitizing procedures continue at all office, drive-thru locations and ATM terminals. A Work Place Safety Program was established in May to provide employees a safe and healthy work place. A phased/staggered return of non-branch staff began in June and the majority of our employees have returned to the office. The wearing of face masks is mandatory in all Bank locations and employee wellness is monitored daily. We continue to watch the latest COVID-19 developments and are following guidance provided by the Centers for Disease Control, as well as federal, state and local agencies.   

Effects on Our Business.

We expect that the COVID-19 pandemic and the specific developments referred to above could have a significant negative impact on our business. In particular, we anticipate that a significant portion of the Bank’s borrowers in the hotel, restaurant and retail industries will continue to endure significant economic distress, which has caused, and may continue to cause, them to draw on their existing lines of credit and adversely affect their ability to repay existing indebtedness, and is expected to adversely impact the value of collateral. These developments, together with economic conditions generally, are also expected to impact our commercial real estate portfolio, particularly with respect to real estate with exposure to these industries, and the value of certain collateral securing our loans. As a result, we anticipate that our financial condition, capital levels and results of operations will be adversely affected, as described in further detail below.

U.S. Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program.

As part of the CARES Act, the PPP Loan Program allocated $660 billion in funds to assist small businesses. Rhinebeck Bank, as a qualified SBA lender, is an authorized participant in this program.

To meet customer demand, a bank-wide team was formed to provide communications to our customer base, establish procedures and documentation to accept loan applications under the PPP program, evaluate potential automated system solutions to process the loan applications, allocate resources to underwrite the loans, submit applications to the SBA for approval, develop new documents for the loans, and close, fund, and book the loans.   

 

We are participating in the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) stemming from the CARES Act passed by Congress as a stimulus response to the potential economic impacts of COVID-19.  The program discontinued accepting new loan applications on August 8, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, we had received 695 applications for $92.8 million of loans under the PPP. We received SBA approval for 674 applications totaling $92.0 million and all had been funded. Deferred loan origination fees related to the PPP loans, net of deferred loan origination costs, totaled $3.3 million at September 30, 2020. We recorded amortization of net deferred loan origination fees of $663,000 and $1.2 million on PPP loans for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. The remaining net deferred loan origination fees will be amortized over the life of the respective loans, or until forgiven by the SBA, and will be recognized in net interest income. To assure adequate funding of the additional loan demand, the Bank became a participant in the Federal Reserve’s Payroll Protection Program Lending Facility, which allowed us to present these loans as collateral for 100% principal credit at the Federal Reserve’s discount window. The term of these loans mirrored the actual maturity of the underlying collateral and had a fixed interest rate of 0.35%. As of September 30, 2020, we had received and repaid $70.1 million in such funding, as overall Bank liquidity remained better than expected.

COVID-19 Loan Forbearance Programs

Section 4013 of the CARES Act provides that a qualified loan modification is exempt by law from classification as a TDR pursuant to GAAP.  In addition, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) in coordination with

other federal agencies and in consultation with state financial regulators, issued OCC Bulletin 2020-35, which provided more limited circumstances in which a loan modification is not subject to classification as a TDR.

For consumer borrowers, the Bank is providing deferment of payments for indirect and direct automobile loans for up to sixty (60) days and an additional thirty (30) days, if needed. We are also providing forbearance to our residential real estate  borrowers which allows them to defer their principal and interest payments for up to ninety (90) days and an option for an additional ninety (90) days, if needed. In addition, for commercial borrowers we are providing deferment and forbearance options that include interest-only and tax escrow only payments. Some borrowers meeting the Bank’s underwriting criteria have been granted working capital loans to provide financial assistance. These deferrals are maintained within the CARES Act guidance and have not exceeded twelve consecutive months of deferred payment. 

As of September 30, 2020, the Bank had approved 2,042 CARES Act loan deferrals totaling $118.0 million, not including 141 loans, totaling $25.3 million, of loans previously sold in the secondary market and serviced for others. As of that date, 93.6% of the Bank-owned loans, with balances of $115.0 million, were performing in accordance to their contractual terms. The majority of the modifications granted to customers expired during the third quarter of 2020, and at September 30, 2020, we had 192 loans totaling $27.2 million of remaining deferrals outstanding. Pursuant to the CARES Act, these loan deferrals are not included in our non-performing loans.

Details with respect to the approved Bank-owned deferral requests as of September 30, 2020 are as follows (dollars in thousands):

Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019

Total Assets. Total assets were $1.11 billion at September 30, 2020, representing an increase of $138.6 million, or 14.2%, compared to $973.9 million at December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily related to increases in loans, cash and the establishment of the right-of-use lease asset, which was $6.4 million at September 30, 2020 and is included in other assets.

Cash and Due from Banks. Cash and due from banks increased $39.6 million, or 330.6%, to $51.6 million at September 30, 2020 from $12.0 million at December 31, 2019 primarily due to an increase in deposits held at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

Investment Securities Available for Sale. Investment securities available for sale decreased $8.5 million, or 7.4%, to $106.4 million at September 30, 2020 from $114.8 million at December 31, 2019. This decrease was primarily due to principal pay-downs of $28.1 million and sales and calls of $7.0 million offset by purchases of mortgage backed securities of $25.2 million and an increase in net unrealized gains of $2.0 million.

Net Loans. Total net loans receivable were $890.5 million at September 30, 2020, an increase of $97.0 million, or 12.2%, as compared to $793.5 million at December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily due to $89.6 million of net outstanding SBA PPP loan balances. The increase in net commercial real estate loans totaled $16.2 million, or 6.0%, as compared to December 31, 2019. Our net indirect auto loan balances increased $12.3 million or 3.4% over the first nine

42


months of 2020. During the same period our allowance for loan losses increased $4.6 million, or 77.4%, to reflect the growth in our portfolio and the significant negative impact of the change in the quantitative and qualitative factors due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Non-accrual loans decreased $3.1 million, or 34.3%, to $5.9 million between year-end 2019 and September 30, 2020. During the same timeframe non-performing assets decreased $3.4 million, or 32.4%, to $7.0 million at September 30, 2020.

Total Liabilities. Total liabilities increased $133.3 million, or 15.4%, to $997.4 million at September 30, 2020, primarily due to an increase in deposits of $142.9 million and the establishment of the lease liability included in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $6.4 million, offset by a decrease of $11.4 million in FHLB advances and a $4.1 million decrease in mortgagors’ escrow accounts.

Deposits. Deposits increased $142.9 million, or 18.5%, to $916.2 million at September 30, 2020. Interest bearing accounts grew $70.5 million, or 11.9%, to $664.6 million while non-interest bearing balances increased $72.3 million, or 40.4%, finishing the third quarter at $251.6 million. The increase in deposits was primarily due to the inflow of cash from PPP loans and an apparent flight to safety as investors fled the stock market’s volatility.

Borrowed Funds. Advances from the FHLB decreased $11.4 million from $66.3 million at December 31, 2019 to $54.9 million at September 30, 2020 as the Company was able to utilize deposit growth to fund asset growth.

Stockholders’ Equity. Stockholders’ equity increased $5.3 million to $115.2 million, primarily due to net income of $3.6 million and an increase in net unrealized gains on available for sale securities of $1.6 million. At September 30, 2020, the Company’s book value per share was $10.35. At September 30, 2020, the Company’s ratio of stockholders’ equity-to-total assets was 10.4%. Unearned common stock held by the Bank’s employee stock ownership plan was $4.0 million at September 30, 2020.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019

Net Income. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2020 decreased $941,000, or 45.0%, to $1.2 million, or $0.10 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $2.1 million, or $0.20 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Interest and dividend income increased $49,000, or 0.5%, interest expense decreased $515,000, or 21.8%, the provision for loan losses increased $1.8 million or 400.0%, noninterest income increased $637,000, or 43.7%, while other expenses and taxes increased $342,000, or 4.6%, between comparable quarters.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, net income was $3.6 million, or $0.33 per basic and diluted share, compared to $4.2 million, or $0.39 per basic and diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Interest income increased by $2.5 million, or 8.3%, and noninterest income increased $1.3 million, or 30.1%, between the two nine-month periods. These revenue gains were offset by a $153,000, or 2.4%, increase in interest expense, a $3.7 million, or 183.8%, increase in the provision for loan losses, and a $576,000, or 2.6%, increase in other noninterest and tax expenses during the equivalent timeframes.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $564,000, or 6.7%, to $9.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities improved 4.6% to 143.16% while our net interest margin declined by 45 basis points to 3.40% when comparing the third quarter of 2020 to the same period in 2019.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, net interest income increased $2.4 million, or 9.9%, to $26.3 million from $24.0 million for the comparable 2019 period. Overall there was a 33 basis point decline in net interest margin to 3.47%, when comparing the respective nine month periods, while the ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities improved 1.7% to 139.69%.

43


The decline in the net interest margin for the three- and nine-month periods was primarily due to lower earning asset yields which have fallen due to the significant decline in the interest rate environment and the addition of lower yielding PPP loans.

Interest Income. Interest income increased $49,000, or 0.5%, to $10.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 from $10.8 million for the comparable 2019 period. The average balances of interest-earning assets increased by $184.8 million, or 21.2%, to $1.06 billion while the average yield decreased by 83 basis points to 4.09%.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, interest income increased $2.5 million, or 8.3%, to $32.8 million from $30.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased by $170.0 million, or 20.2%, to $1.01 billion while the average yield declined by 47 basis points to 4.33% when comparing the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

In both comparable periods, interest income increases were mostly driven by higher average earning asset balances, primarily loans, that were offset by lower earning asset yields due to the addition of lower yielding PPP loans and the significant decline in the interest rate environment. Also impacting the period was an interest reserve of $435,000 set up to reflect anticipated shortfalls in expected interest accruals as a result of deferred loans that may fail to resume normal payments when their deferral periods end.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $515,000, or 21.8%, to $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 over the comparable 2019 period. The average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities increased by $100.9 million, or 15.8%, to $738.7 million while interest rates on those balances decreased 48 basis points to 0.99% when comparing the quarters ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, interest expense grew $153,000, or 2.4%, to $6.5 million from $6.3 million for the comparable 2019 period, as the average balance of total interest-bearing liabilities increased by $111.5 million, or 18.2%, year over year. The increase in the interest expense was partially offset by a decrease in the overall cost of average interest-bearing liabilities by 18 basis points to 1.20% for the first nine months of 2020 from the first nine months of 2019.

Provision for Loan Losses. We recorded a provision for loan losses of $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to $450,000 for the comparable prior year period. Net charge-offs for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 totaled $259,000 compared to $405,000 for the respective period in 2019.

We recorded a $5.7 million provision for loan losses through the first nine months of 2020 as compared to $2.0 million for the same nine months in 2019, an increase of 183.8% period over period. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020, net charge-offs were $1.1 million, an increase of $343,000, or 45.6%, when compared to the comparative 2019 period.

The increase in the provision was mainly attributable to the significant negative impact of the change in both qualitative and quantitative factors reflecting the diminished economic environment and the resultant increased financial risk for the Bank’s borrowers, which will likely lead to some credit quality deterioration. The amount of increase in our loan loss allowance related to the economic environment was based, in part, on the amount of loans to borrowers that had their loan payments deferred.

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income totaled $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020; an increase of $637,000, or 43.7%, from the comparable period in the prior year. Net gain on the sale of loans increased $687,000, or 237.7% and investment advisory income increased by $155,000, or 68.9%. These gains were offset by a $171,000 decrease in service charges on deposit accounts and a $78,000 decrease in other non-interest income. The Bank sold $19.7 million of loans in the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $12.7 million of loans in the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Non-interest income increased $1.3 million, or 30.1%, to $5.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. In the nine months ended September 30, 2020, net gain on the sale of loans increased $1.7 million, or 237.4% while investment advisory income increased $175,000, or 22.8%, to $942,000. The Bank sold $66.4 million of loans in

44


the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $30.3 million of loans in the nine months ended September 30, 2019. These increases were offset by a $436,000 decrease in service charges on deposit accounts and a $202,000 decrease in other non-interest income affected primarily by a decrease in net loan servicing income.

Non-Interest Expense. For the third quarter of 2020, non-interest expenses increased $600,000, or 8.8%, to $7.4 million over the comparable 2019 period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in salaries and benefits of $282,000, an increase in insurance of $219,000, and a $150,000 increase in other noninterest expense.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, non-interest expenses increased $698,000, or 3.4%, to $21.5 million over the comparative nine-month period in 2019. Salaries and benefits increased $599,000, or 5.1%, which was primarily attributable to annual merit increases, production incentives and employee benefit expense increases. Deposit insurance increased $296,000, or 93.4%, due to an FDIC assessment credit received in the prior year. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in our marketing expense of $148,000 and a decrease in other noninterest expense of $105,000.

Income Taxes. Income taxes decreased by $258,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the comparable period in 2019 as our income before income taxes decreased.  Our effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was 20.3% compared to 20.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, income taxes decreased $122,000, or 11.3%, to $958,000 in the first nine months of 2020 from $1.1 million for the comparable 2019 period. Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was 21.1% as compared to 20.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Rate/Volume Analysis

The following tables present the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income for the periods indicated. The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The net column represents the sum of the prior columns. For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume (in thousands).

Management of Market Risk

General. The majority of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Consequently, our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk. Our assets, consisting primarily of loans, have longer maturities than our liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits. As a result, a principal part of our business strategy is to manage our exposure to changes in market interest rates. Accordingly, the Board of Directors established a management-level Asset/Liability Management Committee (the “ALCO”), which takes initial responsibility for reviewing the asset/liability management process and related procedures, establishing and monitoring reporting systems and ascertaining that established asset/liability strategies are being maintained. On at least a quarterly basis, the ALCO reviews and reports asset/liability management outcomes. This committee also implements any changes in strategies and reviews the performance of any specific asset/liability management actions that have been implemented.

We try to manage our interest rate risk to minimize the exposure of our earnings and capital to changes in market interest rates. We have implemented the following strategies to manage our interest rate risk: originating loans with adjustable interest rates or with shorter terms, promoting core deposit products, and adjusting the interest rates and maturities of funding sources, as necessary. By following these strategies, we believe that we are better positioned to react to changes in market interest rates.

Net Economic Value Simulation. We analyze the Bank’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates through a net economic value of equity (“EVE”) model. EVE represents the present value of the expected cash flows from our assets less the present value of the expected cash flows arising from our liabilities adjusted for the value of off-balance sheet contracts. The EVE ratio represents the dollar amount of our EVE divided by the present value of our total assets for a given interest rate scenario. EVE attempts to quantify our economic value using a discounted cash flow methodology while the EVE ratio reflects that value as a form of capital ratio. We estimate what our EVE would be at a specific date. We then forecast what the EVE might be at the same date throughout a series of interest rate scenarios representing immediate and permanent, parallel shifts in the yield curve. We currently calculate the EVE under scenarios where interest rates increase

100, 200, 300 and 400 basis points from current market rates and where interest rates decrease 100 basis points from current market rates.

The following table presents the estimated changes in the Bank’s EVE that would result from changes in market interest rates at September 30, 2020 (dollars in thousands).

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodologies used in the above interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes require making certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. The above table assumes that the composition of our interest-sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the date indicated remains constant uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. Accordingly, although the table provides an indication of our interest rate risk exposure at a point in time, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on our EVE and will likely differ from actual results.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We maintain liquid assets at levels we consider adequate to meet both our short-term and long-term liquidity needs. We adjust our liquidity levels to fund deposit outflows, repay our borrowings and to fund loan commitments. We also adjust liquidity as appropriate to meet asset and liability management objectives.

Our primary sources of liquidity are deposits, loan sales, amortization and prepayment of loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investment securities and other short-term investments, earnings and funds provided from operations, as well as access to FHLB advances and other borrowings. While scheduled principal repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan sales and prepayments are greatly influenced by market interest rates, economic conditions, and rates offered by our competition. We set the interest rates on our deposits to maintain a desired level of total deposits.

A portion of our liquidity consists of cash and cash equivalents and borrowings, which are a product of our operating, investing and financing activities. At September 30, 2020, $51.6 million of our assets were held in cash and cash equivalents. We had no short-term investment securities (maturing in one year or less) at September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, we had $54.9 million of structured borrowings outstanding from the FHLB, of which $34.7 million is due within the next 12 months. We have access to FHLB advances of up to $556.2 million.

At September 30, 2020, we had $99.8 million in loan commitments outstanding, which included $4.7 million in undisbursed construction loans, $10.5 million in unused home equity lines of credit, $64.7 million in commercial lines of credit, $14.2 million in future loan commitments and $5.7 million in standby letters of credit. Certificates of deposit due within one year of September 30, 2020 totaled $135.1 million, or 64.2% of certificates of deposit. If these maturing deposits do not remain with us, we will be required to seek other sources of funds, including other certificates of deposit and 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 certificates of deposit due on or before September 30, 2021. We believe, however, based on past experience that a significant portion of our certificates of deposit will remain with us. We have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered.

As reported in the consolidated statements of cash flows, our cash flows are classified for financial reporting purposes as operating, investing or financing cash flows. Net cash provided by operating activities was $6.3 million and $8.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These amounts differ from our net income because of a variety of cash receipts and disbursements that did not affect net income for the respective periods. Net cash used for investing activities was $94.0 million and $96.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, principally reflecting our loan and investment security activities in the respective periods. Net increase in loan balances outstanding had the most significant effect, as net cash used amounted to $105.0 million and $82.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Deposit and borrowing cash flows have traditionally comprised most of our financing activities which resulted in net cash provided of $127.3 million and $55.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, interest-bearing deposits increased $70.5 million, while non-interest-bearing deposits increased $72.3 million over year-end 2019. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, deposit and borrowing cash flows were primarily offset by the return of unfulfilled offering subscriptions of $41.1 million related to our initial stock offering.

We also have obligations under our post retirement plan as described in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements. The post retirement benefit payments represent actuarially determined future payments to eligible plan participants. We froze our pension plan in 2012.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The financial statements and related notes of Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). GAAP generally requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without consideration for changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of our operations. Unlike industrial companies, our assets and liabilities are primarily monetary in nature. As a result, changes in market interest rates have a greater impact on performance than the effects of inflation.
