EXPLANATORY NOTE

On November 18, 2010, Ameris Bancorp (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original Report”) to report the Company’s announcement that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Ameris Bank (the “Bank”), had entered into (i) a Purchase and Assumption Agreement dated as of November 12, 2010 with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) and with the FDIC, as Receiver of Darby Bank & Trust Co., Vidalia, Georgia (“Darby”), pursuant to which the Bank acquired certain assets, and assumed substantially all of the deposits and certain liabilities, of Darby, and (ii) a Purchase and Assumption Agreement dated as of November 12, 2010 with the FDIC and with the FDIC, as Receiver of Tifton Banking Company, Tifton, Georgia (“Tifton”), pursuant to which the Bank acquired certain assets, and assumed substantially all of the deposits and certain liabilities, of Tifton.

This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment”) amends and supplements the disclosure provided in the Original Report to disclose additional information required with respect to the Darby transaction by Items 9.01(a) and (b) of Form 8-K. Except as otherwise provided herein, the other disclosures made in the Original Report remain unchanged. All financial and other numeric measures of Darby as described in this Amendment are based upon information as of November 12, 2010 and may be subject to change. In addition, the fair values of acquired loans and other real estate remains subject to finalization and revision by the Bank in accordance with accounting guidance on business acquisitions.

Statements made in this Amendment, other than those concerning historical financial information, may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are subject to risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding the Company’s expectations concerning its financial condition, operating results, cash flows, liquidity and capital resources. A discussion of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from management’s expectations is set forth under the captions “Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 and in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010.

 

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

The information provided under Item 2.01 “Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets” is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On November 12, 2010 (the “Closing Date”), Ameris Bank (the “Bank”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameris Bancorp (the “Company”), entered into that certain Purchase and Assumption Agreement (the “Darby Agreement”) by and among the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”), as Receiver of Darby Bank & Trust Co., Vidalia, Georgia (“Darby”), the Bank and the FDIC acting in its corporate capacity, pursuant to which the Bank acquired certain assets, and assumed substantially all of the deposits and certain liabilities, of Darby (the “Darby Acquisition”). In connection with the Darby Acquisition, the Bank also acquired other real estate owned (“OREO”) as of the Closing Date.

Pursuant to the Darby Agreement, the Bank acquired approximately $637.6 million in assets, including approximately $393.3 million in loans, and also assumed approximately $442.7 million in liabilities, including approximately $387.0 million in customer deposits. The deposits were acquired with no premium, and the assets were acquired at a discount of $45.0 million. To settle the transaction, the Bank made a cash payment to the FDIC in the amount of $149.9 million, based on the differential between liabilities assumed and the assets acquired, taking into account the asset discount.

 

1


The Bank and the FDIC also have entered loss-sharing agreements that provide the Bank with significant protection against credit losses on loans and related assets acquired in the Darby Acquisition. Under these agreements, discussed in more detail below, the FDIC will, for a specified number of years, reimburse the Bank for 80% of all losses and related expenses on covered assets, primarily acquired loans and OREO.

The following discussion of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the Darby Acquisition is presented based on estimated fair values as of the Closing Date. The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were determined as described below. These fair value estimates are based on the information available and are subject to change for up to one year after the Closing Date as additional information relative to Closing Date fair values becomes available. In addition, the tax treatment of FDIC-assisted acquisitions is complex and subject to interpretations that may result in future adjustments of deferred taxes as of the Closing Date. The disclosure set forth in this Item 2.01 reflects the status of these items based on management’s current best estimate.

The Company has determined that the Darby Acquisition constitutes a business acquisition as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are presented at their estimated fair values as required by that topic. Fair values were determined based on the requirements of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. In many cases the determination of these fair values required management to make estimates about discount rates, future expected cash flows, market conditions and other future events that are highly subjective in nature and subject to change. The following is a description of the methods used to determine the fair values of significant assets and liabilities and the fair value determination of each involves significant estimates and assumptions.

Cash and due from banks

The carrying amount of these assets is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on their short term nature.

Securities available for sale

Investment securities were acquired at their fair values at pricing supplied by an independent third party investment broker.

Loans

Fair values for loans were based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered factors including the type of loan and related collateral, accrual status, fixed or variable interest rate, term of loan, prepayments, whether or not the loan was amortizing and a discount rate reflecting the Bank’s assessment of risk inherent in the cash flow estimates. The Bank has used the provisions of ASC 310, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality, which applies to a loan with evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination, acquired by completion of a transfer for which it is probable, at acquisition, that the investor will be unable to collect all contractually required payments receivable. ASC 310 prohibits carrying over or creating an allowance for loan losses upon initial recognition for loans which fall under the scope of this standard. As of the Closing Date, a majority of these loans were valued based on the liquidation value of the underlying collateral because the future cash flows are primarily based on the liquidation of underlying collateral.

Core deposit intangible

This intangible asset represents the value of the relationships that Darby had with its deposit customers. The fair value of this intangible asset was estimated based on a discounted cash flow methodology that gave appropriate consideration to expected customer attrition rates, cost of the deposit base, reserve requirements and the net maintenance cost attributable to customer deposits.

 

2


Other Real Estate Owned (OREO)

Darby has $22.0 million in fair value of OREO and foreclosed properties, which includes all real estate, other than bank premises used in bank operations, owned or controlled by Darby, including real estate acquired in settlement of loans. Properties are recorded at their estimated fair values as of the Closing Date. Fair values of OREO are determined by sales agreement or appraisal, and costs to sell are based on estimation per the terms and conditions of the sales agreement or terms customary for real estate transactions.

Estimated reimbursement from the FDIC

These loss-sharing assets are measured separately from the related loans and OREO acquired as they are not contractually embedded in the assets and are not transferable with the assets should the Bank choose to dispose of them. Fair value was estimated using projected cash flows related to the loss-sharing agreements based on the expected reimbursements for losses and the applicable loss-sharing percentages. These expected reimbursements do not include reimbursable amounts related to future covered expenditures.

Other Assets, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities

All other assets, accrued expenses and other liabilities are recorded at Darby’s book value which was determined to approximate fair value as of the Closing Date.

Deposits

The fair values used for the demand and savings deposits that comprise the accounts acquired in the Darby Acquisition equal, by definition, the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair values for time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered to the interest rates embedded on such time deposits.

Other Borrowings

The fair value for other borrowings was estimated using discounted cash flows, based on the current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

The Bank also entered into loss-sharing agreements with the FDIC that collectively cover approximately $432.1 million of assets, which consists of $389.1 million of loans (residential and commercial) and $43.0 million of OREO. Pursuant to the terms of the loss-sharing agreements, the FDIC’s obligation to reimburse the Bank for losses with respect to covered assets begins with the first dollar of loss incurred. The FDIC will reimburse the Bank for 80% of losses on covered assets. The Bank will reimburse the FDIC for its share of recoveries with respect to losses for which the FDIC paid the Bank a reimbursement under the loss-sharing agreements. Certain other assets of Darby were acquired by the Bank that are not covered by loss-sharing agreements with the FDIC. These assets include cash, marketable securities purchased at fair market value and certain other assets.

The loss-sharing agreement applicable to single-family residential mortgage loans provides for FDIC loss sharing and Bank reimbursement to the FDIC for recoveries for ten years. The loss-sharing agreement applicable to commercial loans and other covered assets provides for FDIC loss-sharing for five years and Bank reimbursement to the FDIC for recoveries for eight years.

The loss-sharing agreements are subject to certain servicing procedures. The fair value of the loss-sharing agreements was recorded as an indemnification asset at an estimated fair value of $112.4 million on the Closing Date.

The foregoing summary of the Darby Agreement, including the loss-sharing agreements, is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Darby Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.

(a) Financial Statements of Businesses Acquired.

Discussion

As set forth in Item 2.01 above, on the Closing Date, the Bank acquired certain assets, and assumed substantially all of the deposits and certain liabilities, of Darby pursuant to the Darby Agreement. A narrative description of the anticipated effects of the Darby Acquisition on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, capital resources and operating results is presented below. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and the related notes of the Company, which have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

5


The Darby Acquisition increased the Company’s total assets, total loans and total deposits by approximately 18%,16% and 18%, respectively, as compared to balances at September 30, 2010. The Company expects the Darby Acquisition to positively affect the Company’s operating results in several ways, as discussed below:

 

   

The Company believes that as the operations of Darby are deleveraged and consolidated with Ameris Bank, additional gains in the Company’s consolidated efficiency ratio will be realized.

 

   

The Company believes that the additional branch footprint in Savannah, Georgia will provide increased opportunities for growth and creates the only community bank with a coastal footprint in the metropolitan markets between Charleston, South Carolina and Jacksonville, Florida.

 

   

The Company’s acquired deposit base in Vidalia, Georgia represents a leading position in market share with a strong deposit concentration in transaction accounts. Historically, this type of deposit mix and market share have correlated very closely with higher than average operating results, and the Company believes that these excess earnings will provide the majority of the capital required to further expand the Company’s market share in Savannah, Georgia.

The Darby Acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles regarding business combinations. The amount that the Company realizes on these assets could differ materially from the fair values reflected in Item 2.01 above primarily as a result of changes in the timing and amount of collections on the acquired loans in future periods. Because of the loss-sharing agreements with the FDIC on these assets, as described in Item 2.01 above, the Company does not expect to incur significant losses. To the extent the actual values realized for acquired loans differ from the estimated amounts, the indemnification asset will generally be impacted in an offsetting manner due to the loss-sharing support from the FDIC.

Financial Condition

In connection with the Darby Acquisition, the Bank purchased loans with a contractual principal balance of $393.3 million, the fair value of which was estimated to be $261.3 million. The fair value of the loans acquired represented 15.86% of the Company’s gross outstanding loans as compared to balances reported at September 30, 2010.

Short-term Assets

Initially, the Darby Acquisition reduced the Company’s levels of liquidity by a net amount of $58.2 million. The Company acquired $91.7 million in total cash and due from banks before making a payment of $149.9 million to settle the transaction with the FDIC.

The acquired portfolio increased the Company’s investment securities by approximately 44.72% when compared to balances reported at September 30, 2010. The yields of the securities shown in the preceding table are lower than might be expected due to the majority of the bonds being callable in short periods subsequent to the Darby Acquisition.

Loans

Loans acquired amounted to approximately 15.86% of the Company’s gross loans reported at September 30, 2010. The following table presents information regarding the loan portfolio acquired on November 12, 2010 at fair value (dollars in thousands):

Because a significant percentage of the acquired portfolio shows some deterioration of credit quality, management does not believe that the average contractual maturity or average contractual rate are reliable measures with respect to gauging the performance on the acquired loan portfolio. It is likely that many of the acquired loans will reach a resolution before their contractual maturity and may cease paying interest in the periods preceding such resolution.

Other Real Estate Owned

The Company acquired $22.03 million of OREO in connection with the Darby Acquisition. This represented 27.76% of the Company’s balance of OREO at September 30, 2010. The Company was able to determine the fair value of the property acquired through the use of appraisals and/or review of the comparable sales data available at the time of purchase. Losses on OREO are covered by the Company’s loss-sharing agreement with the FDIC.

A majority of the time deposits acquired were concentrated in national or out-of-market deposit accounts that had no identifiable relationship with the Bank. In accordance with certain guidelines, the Company adjusted the contractual rates of the out-of-market time deposits to levels deemed to be market level rates. Customers whose rates were adjusted had the right to redeem their time deposit without a penalty for early withdrawal. Through December 31, 2010, approximately 62.5% of the repriced deposit accounts had been redeemed without penalty.

In its assumption of the deposit liabilities, the Bank determined that some of the customer relationships associated with these deposits have intangible value, in accordance with the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets in a business combination. The Bank determined the estimated fair value of the core deposit intangible to be approximately $1.2 million, which will be amortized utilizing the straight line method over an estimated economic life of five years. The Company believes that the economic life of the deposit intangible will be greater due to the fact that the acquired branches are in close proximity to Ameris’ current markets and that many of Darby’s customers are familiar with the Ameris brand.

Future amortization of this core deposit intangible asset over the shorter economic life will decrease results of operations, net of any potential tax effect. Since amortization is a noncash item, it will have no effect upon future liquidity and cash flows. For the calculation of regulatory capital, this core deposit intangible asset is disallowed and is a reduction to equity capital. The Company expects that disallowing this intangible asset should not materially adversely affect the Company’s or the Bank’s regulatory capital ratios.

The core deposit intangible asset is subject to significant estimates by management of the Company related to the value and the life of the asset. These estimates could change over time. The Company will review the valuation of this asset periodically to ensure that no impairment has occurred. If any impairment is subsequently determined, the Company will record the impairment as an expense in its consolidated statement of operations.

Other Borrowings

The Company assumed approximately $54.4 million in other borrowings based on estimated fair values. For comparative purposes, the Company had $13.2 million of securities sold under agreements to repurchase and did not have any other borrowings outstanding at September 30, 2010. The various types of borrowings assumed as of the Closing Date are summarized below (dollars in thousands):

Accrued Interest Payable and Other Liabilities

The Company acquired approximately $2.7 million of accrued interest payable and other liabilities. The book value of these liabilities approximated their fair value.

Operating Results and Cash Flows

The Company from time to time becomes aware of acquisition opportunities and performs various types of reviews and analyses to determine their impact on the Company’s operating results, cash flows and risk profile. The Darby Acquisition was attractive to the Company for a variety of reasons, including the following:

 

   

Gaining significant market share position in a new market where the deposit mix is concentrated in transaction accounts and long-term deposit relationships;

 

   

Attractiveness in the pricing of the acquired loan portfolios, including the indemnification assets;

 

   

The ability to utilize the Company’s relatively inexpensive funding sources to replace lost liquidity at Darby in connection with the planned run-off of out-of-market deposits;

 

   

The ability to quickly reduce redundancies and gain additional efficiencies related to the Company’s corporate functions;

 

   

The reduction of credit risk through FDIC loss-sharing agreements; and

 

   

The relatively small size of Darby (based on the number of accounts and total assets) provided less operational risk and less potential for Company management to be materially distracted from existing day-to-day challenges.

 

11


The Darby Acquisition had an immediate accretive impact on the Company’s financial results as it recognized an after-tax gain of approximately $2.7 million in connection with the transaction. The gain resulted from the Company’s determination that the fair value of the assets acquired exceeded the fair value of the liabilities assumed. The Company’s bid to acquire the assets included a discount of approximately $45.0 million, and the Company paid the FDIC $149.9 million in cash to settle the transaction.

The extent to which the Bank’s operating results may be adversely affected by the acquired loans is largely offset by the loss-sharing agreements and the related discounts reflected in the estimated fair value of these assets as of the Closing Date. In accordance with the provisions of accounting for loans with evidence of credit deterioration, the fair values of the acquired loans reflect an estimate of expected credit losses related to these assets. As a result, the Company’s operating results would only be adversely affected by loan losses to the extent that such losses exceed the expected credit losses reflected in the fair value of these assets as of the Closing Date. In addition, to the extent that the stated interest rate on acquired loans was not considered a market rate of interest as of the Closing Date, appropriate adjustments to the fair values as of the Closing Date will be recorded. These adjustments mitigate the risk associated with the acquisition of loans earning a below-market rate of return.

The accounting guidance for loans with evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination applies to a loan, for which it is probable at acquisition, that the investor will be unable to collect all contractually-required payments receivable. This accounting guidance prohibits carrying over or creating an allowance for loan losses upon initial recognition for loans that fall under its scope. As of the Closing Date, the preliminary estimate of the contractual receivable amounts was $266.7 million with non-accretable differences (credit quality discounts) of $98.1 million, and the estimated fair value of the loans was $139.8 million, net of accretable yield adjustments totaling $28.8 million. These amounts were determined based upon the estimated prepayments, expected credit losses and market liquidity and interest rates.

The loss-sharing agreements will likely have a material impact on the cash flows and operating results of the Company in both the short term and the long term. In the short term, as stated above, it is likely that there will be a significant amount of the covered assets that will experience deterioration in payment performance or will be determined to have inadequate collateral values to repay the loans. In such instances, the Company will likely no longer receive payments from the borrowers, which will impact cash flows. The loss-sharing agreements will not fully offset the financial effects of such a situation. However, if a loan is subsequently charged off or charged down after the Company exhausts its best efforts at collection, the loss-sharing agreements will cover a substantial portion of the loss associated with the covered assets.

The long-term effects that the Company may experience will depend primarily on the ability of the borrowers under the various loans covered by the loss-sharing agreements to make payments over time. As the loss-sharing agreements cover up to a ten-year period (five years for commercial loans and other assets), changing economic conditions will likely impact the timing of future charge-offs and the resulting reimbursements from the FDIC. The Company believes that any recapture of interest income and recognition of cash flows from the borrowers or received from the FDIC (as part of the FDIC indemnification asset) may be recognized unevenly over this period. In addition, the Company recorded substantial discounts related to the purchase of these covered assets. A portion of these discounts will be accretable to income over the economic life of the loans and will be dependent upon the timing and success of the Company’s collection efforts on the covered assets.

 

12


Liquidity

Initially, the Darby Acquisition reduced the Company’s liquidity reserves because of the cash payment required to settle the transaction totaling $149.9 million. This payment was partially offset by the acquisition of cash, due from banks and short-term assets acquired in the transaction totaling $91.7 million. In addition, the Company believes that the average life of the indemnification asset representing the FDIC’s protection from planned losses is approximately 24 months. As this receivable is collected over the coming periods, the Company believes the liquidity impact of Darby to be negligible.

Financial Statements

Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated by reference into this Item 9.01(a) are the audited consolidated financial statements of DBT Holding Company and Subsidiaries as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009. Darby was a wholly-owned subsidiary of DBT Holding Company as of such date and represented substantially all of the assets, liabilities and operations of DBT Holding Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009. As a percentage of the respective amounts shown on the attached consolidated financial statements of DBT Holding Company and Subsidiaries, Darby’s assets constituted 99.8% of the total assets shown, Darby’s liabilities constituted 98.6% of the total liabilities shown and Darby’s net loss represented 99.1% of the net loss reported.

Attached hereto as Exhibit 99.3 and incorporated by reference into this Item 9.01(a) are unaudited interim financial statements of Darby as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

(b) Pro Forma Financial Information.

In connection with the Darby Acquisition, the Bank entered into loss-sharing agreements with the FDIC. Pursuant to the terms of the loss-sharing agreements, the FDIC’s obligation to reimburse the Bank for losses with respect to covered assets begins with the first dollar of loss incurred. The FDIC will reimburse the Bank for 80% of all losses.

The Bank will reimburse the FDIC for its share of recoveries with respect to losses for which the FDIC paid the Bank a reimbursement under the loss-sharing agreements.

The loss-sharing agreement applicable to single-family residential mortgage loans provides for FDIC loss-sharing and Bank reimbursement to the FDIC for recoveries for ten years. The loss-sharing agreement applicable to commercial loans and other covered assets provides for FDIC loss-sharing for five years and Bank reimbursement to the FDIC for recoveries for eight years.

Based on the above, the Company believes that the Darby Acquisition is a “significant acquisition” in connection with which federal financial assistance or guarantees are an essential part of the transaction or the nature and magnitude of federal assistance is so pervasive as to substantially reduce the relevance of historical information to an assessment of future operations.

Because the Company believes that the continuity of Darby’s operations is substantially lacking after the Darby Acquisition for the reasons stated above, no additional information regarding Darby is being provided under this Item 9.01(b). Because of the lack of continuity and the loss-sharing agreements, the Company also believes that the historical financial statements required by Item 9.01(a) of Form 8-K (Exhibits 99.2 and 99.3 hereto) are not indicative of the Darby Acquisition.

To the Board of Directors DBT Holding Company Vidalia, Georgia

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of DBT Holding Company and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2009. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of DBT Holding Company and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and conform to banking industry practices. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DBT Holding Company (the Company) and its wholly- owned subsidiaries, Darby Bank and Trust Company of Vidalia, Georgia (the Bank) and DBT Real Estate, LLC. All significant intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, DBT Capital Trust II and DBT Statutory Trust III, are not consolidated as the Company is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary of these variable interest entities.

Cash Equivalents

For the purpose of presentation in the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are defined as those amounts included in the balance sheet caption “Cash and Due from Banks”, which includes cash on hand, cash items in the process of collection, and amounts due from correspondent banks.

Investments

The Company has marketable investment securities. Debt securities that management has the ability and intent to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity and carried at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, which are recognized as adjustments to interest income using a methodology that approximates a level-yield over the remaining period until maturity. Other securities are classified as available-for-sale and carried at fair value with net unrealized gains and losses included in accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity, on an after-tax basis. Realized gains and losses on disposition are determined using the specific identification method. The Company does not purchase securities for trading purposes.

The Company has investments in joint ventures and other entities. Investments where the Company’s voting interests are more than 20% and less than 50% are generally recorded on the equity method. The Company’s share of each entity’s equity is reported in the balance sheet line item; other assets and income or loss for the year is included in other income on the accompanying statements of income.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

Loans and Leases

Loans are reported at their outstanding principal balances net of any unearned income, charge-offs, unamortized deferred fees and costs on originated loans, and premiums or discounts on purchased loans. Loan origination fees and certain direct origination costs are deferred and recognized as adjustments to income over the lives of the related loans using a methodology that approximates a level-yield over the remaining period until maturity. Unearned income, discounts and premiums are amortized to income using a methodology that approximates a level-yield over the remaining period until maturity.

Interest on loans is accrued and credited to income based on the principal amount and contracted interest rate on the loan. Loans that are past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest, or where reasonable doubt exists as to timely collection of principal or interest, including loans that are individually identified as being impaired, are generally classified as non-accrual loans unless well-secured and in the process of collection. Interest accrued but not collected is reversed when a loan is classified as non-performing. Interest collections on non-performing loans for which the ultimate collectability of principal is uncertain are applied as principal reductions; otherwise, such collections are credited to income when received. Loans are returned to performing status only when the loan is brought current and ultimate collectability of principal is no longer in doubt.

The Company provides equipment financing to its customers through leasing arrangements, which are carried at the aggregate of lease payments receivable plus estimated residual value of the leased property, less unearned income. Unearned income on direct financing leases is amortized over the lease terms by methods that approximate the interest method.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

The Company uses the allowance method to provide for loan losses. Accordingly, loan losses are charged to the allowance and recoveries are credited to the allowance. The allowance for loan and lease losses represents management’s estimate for probable losses on existing loans and leases. The Company performs periodic detailed reviews of its lending portfolio to identify credit risks and to assess the overall collectability of the portfolio. The allowance on certain homogeneous loans is based on aggregated portfolio segment evaluations generally by product type and the bank loan grade. Loss estimates for these loans consider a variety of factors including, but not limited to, historical loss experience, delinquencies, economic conditions and credit scores.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (cont.)

The remaining loans are reviewed on an individual loan basis. Loans subject to individual reviews are analyzed and segregated by risk according to the Company’s internal risk rating scale. If necessary, a specific allowance for loan and lease losses is established for individual loans. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect amounts due according to the contractual terms of the agreement Specific allowances for impaired loans are generally determined based on collateral values or the present value of estimated cash flows. The risk classifications, in conjunction with an analysis of historical loss experience, current economic conditions and performance trends, and any other pertinent information, together with specific allowances for loan loss and impaired loans, result in the estimation of the allowance for loan and lease losses. Loans are charged-off against the allowance for loan and lease losses when available information confirms that the collection of the principal is considered remote.

Derivatives

The Company enters into derivative instruments in order to manage its exposure to interest rates on certain financial instruments. The accounting for the changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative instrument at inception. For derivative contracts where the Company has elected hedge accounting, the effective portion of the hedge is accounted for in other comprehensive income rather than net income. For the derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments the Company recognizes the gain or loss, calculated as the change in the fair value of the derivative instrument, in current earnings during the period of change. The Company bases the fair value of derivative instruments on market quotes or estimates of fair value for similar instruments. The Company reports derivative instruments that are an asset as other assets and derivative instruments that are liabilities as other liabilities.

Premises and Equipment

Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is charged to operations and is computed principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated lives range up to 40 years for buildings, up to 7 years for furniture and equipment, and the shorter of lease term or estimated useful life for leasehold improvements.

Other Real Estate Owned

Other real estate owned is included in other assets. These properties are acquired through foreclosure or in full or partial satisfaction of the related loan. Other real estate owned is carried at the lower of cost or the fair value, net of estimated selling costs. After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the carrying amounts are adjusted as necessary.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of the transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due, plus deferred taxes or less deferred tax benefits. Deferred taxes or benefits are related primarily to temporary differences in reporting of allowance for loan losses and accumulated depreciation for financial and income tax reporting. The net deferred tax asset or liability represents the future tax consequences of those differences, which have been recognized in different periods for financial reporting than for income tax purposes.

In the event the future tax consequences of differences between the financial reporting bases and tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities result in deferred tax assets, an evaluation of the probability of being able to realize the future benefits indicated by such assets is made. A valuation allowance is provided for the portion of the deferred tax asset when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In assessing the Company’s ability to realize the deferred tax assets, management considers the scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies.

Comprehensive Income

Accumulated other comprehensive income is comprised of unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities and the change in value of derivatives and is reported net of applicable taxes. The Company records the changes in unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and reports those changes in the statement of stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are reclassified to net income as the gains or losses are realized upon sale of the securities.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. For diluted earnings per common share, net income can be affected by the conversion of the convertible preferred stock. Where the effect of this conversion would have been dilutive, net income is adjusted by the associated preferred dividends. This adjusted net income is divided by the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding for each period plus amounts representing the dilutive effect of stock options outstanding and the dilution resulting from the conversion of the convertible preferred stock.

Stock Compensation Plans

Stock options issued prior to January 1, 2006, are accounted for based on the intrinsic value method. Under this method, compensation expense for employee stock options was not recognized if the exercise price of the option equals or exceeds the estimated fair value of the stock on the date of grant. Pro-forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is disclosed in Note 22.

For equity awards granted after January 1, 2006, the cost of employee services received in exchange for equity instruments including options and restricted stock awards generally will be measured at fair value at the grant date. The grant date fair value will be estimated using option-pricing models adjusted for the unique characteristics of those options and instruments. The cost will be recognized over the requisite service period, often the vesting period.

The Company awarded restricted stock units in 2009 and 2008. The fair value of such units is expensed over the vesting period.

Off Balance Sheet Financial Instruments

In the ordinary course of business, the Bank has entered into off balance sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit Such financial instruments are recorded in the financial statements when they become payable and are subject to the same credit policies and processes afforded loans by the Company.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

Use of Estimates (cont.)

A material estimate that is particularly susceptible to significant changes relates to the determination of the allowance for loan losses. While management uses all available information to estimate loan losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in local economic conditions or changes in the underlying credit of borrowers. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of the examination process, periodically review the Bank’s allowance for loan losses and may require the Bank to recognize additions to the allowance based on judgments about information available at the time of the examinations. Because of these factors, it is reasonably possible that the allowance for loan losses may change materially in the near term.

Subsequent Events

In May 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard which establishes the general standards of accounting for, and disclosures of, events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or available to be issued. It requires entities to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated and the basis for the date. This standard is effective for reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009 and was effective for the Company as of December 31, 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. The Company has evaluated subsequent events through March 10, 2010.

 

2. Restrictions on Cash and Due
from Banks

When required, cash and due from banks includes required reserve amounts which under Federal Reserve Board Regulations are to be maintained on an average daily basis in the form of cash. There was no average reserve requirement at December 31, 2009 and 2008.

 

3. Investment Securities

During 2009, the Company’s management philosophy as to investments was reconsidered. As a result, management no longer believes any securities meet the requirements to be classified as held-to-maturity. In March 2009, management reclassified approx $99,800,000 of previously classified held-to-maturity securities to the available-for sale classification. The securities were transferred at the market value at the time of transfer with the unrealized gain or loss being recorded to other comprehensive income. Subsequent to this transfer the Company sold approximately $66,000,000 of these transferred securities for a realized gain of approximately $1,600,000.

Management evaluated securities for other-than-temporary impairment annually, or more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to the length of time and the extent to which fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. As of December 31, 2009, management identified a mortgage backed security that met the other-than-temporary impairment criteria and noted a credit based impairment of $77,000 which they recorded through earnings.

The amortized cost and estimated market value of securities at December 31, 2009, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations.

15. Group Concentration of Credit Risk

Most of the Bank’s lending activity is with customers located within the local lending area.

The Bank is party to financial instruments with off balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk.

The Bank’s exposure to credit loss, in the event of non-performance by the customer for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit, is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making credit commitments as those for the extension of credit on loans included in the financial statements. Collateral or other securities are generally required for commitments to extend credit The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, varies, but may include securities, accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and real estate.

In 2006, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, DBT Statutory Trust III (Trust III), and was issued $186,000 of floating rate common securities by Trust III. Trust III also issued $6,000,000 in floating rate capital securities (Trust Preferred Securities) to qualified institutional buyers. Trust III invested these proceeds in $6,186,000 of the Company’s 2006-1 Unsecured Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Debentures (the 2006 Debentures). The 2006 Debentures represent the sole assets of Trust III, mature on December 15, 2036, bear interest at the adjustable rate of LIBOR plus 1.70%, payable quarterly and are redeemable in whole, or in part, by the Company beginning on December 15, 2011, at 100% of the principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.

The 2002 and 2006 Debentures are unsecured obligations of the Company and are junior in right of payment to all present and future senior indebtedness of the Company. The Company may defer interest payments on the 2002 and 2006 Debentures from time-to-time for a period not exceeding twenty consecutive quarters. However, any unpaid quarterly interest payments will continue to accrue interest at prime plus 1.25% for the 2002 Debentures and LIBOR plus 1.70% for the 2006 Debentures.

Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities are entitled to cumulative cash distributions. The Trust Preferred Securities will be redeemed upon repayment of the 2002 and 2006 Debentures. If the Company defers interest payments on the 2002 and 2006 Debentures, Trust II and Trust III will defer distributions on the Trust Preferred Securities during any deferral period. However, any unpaid quarterly distributions on the Trust Preferred Securities will continue to accrue with interest at prime plus 1.25% for Trust II and LIBOR plus 1.70% for Trust III. The Company has guaranteed, on a subordinated basis, distributions and other payments due on the Trust Preferred Securities.

The Bank has entered into a repurchase agreement for certain securities. The agreement requires interest at a variable rate based upon LIBOR and matures June 25, 2012. As of December 31, 2009, the Bank sold $ 10,100,000 under this agreement

The Company maintains a line of credit with a financial institution in the amount of $ 1,600,000. As of December 31, 2009, there was $1,600,000 outstanding.

 

20. Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The assumptions used in the estimation of the fair value of financial instruments are detailed below. Where quoted prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using discounted cash flows and other valuation techniques. The use of discounted cash flows can be significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. The following disclosures should not be considered as representative of the liquidation value of the Company, but rather a good-faith estimate of the increase or decrease in value of financial instruments held since purchase, origination or issuance.

Cash and Short-Term Investments

For cash, due from banks, federal funds sold and interest-bearing deposits with other banks, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

20. Fair Values of Financial Instruments (cont.)

Investment Securities

Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices.

Loans and Commitments to Extend Credit and Standby Letters of Credit

For variable rate loans that reprice frequently with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying amounts. The fair values of other loans (for example, fixed rate real estate loans, commercial and state and municipal loans) are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Loan fair value estimates include adjustments regarding future expected loss experience and risk characteristics.

Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) Stock

It is not practical to estimate the fair value of FHLB Stock, as it is not marketable. The investment in FHLB Stock is carried at cost in the accompanying balance sheet and is assumed to approximate fair value.

Interest Receivable and Other Assets

The carrying amounts of these assets are assumed to approximate their fair values.

Deposit Liabilities

The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Advances from Federal Home Loan Bank and Other Borrowings

The carrying amounts of short-term borrowings approximate their fair values.

Accrued Interest and Other Liabilities

The carrying amounts of these liabilities are assumed to approximate their fair values.

Accrued Interest and Other Liabilities (cont.)

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information, and information about the respective financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Bank’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Bank’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments, which are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. Fair value estimates are based on existing and off balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. Significant assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments include deferred income taxes and premises and equipment. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in the estimates.

21. 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 Bank’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.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of Total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Due to the Bank’s condition, the FDIC has required that the Bank’s Board of Directors sign a Consent Order which conveys specific actions needed to address certain findings from the examination and to address the Bank’s current financial condition. The Bank entered into the Consent Order with the FDIC on December 18, 2009 and it contains a list of strict requirements including the following:

 

   

The Board of Directors must create a committee to ensure compliance with the Order; the Committee must ensure appropriate management is in place and regularly monitor activities towards compliance with the Consent Order.

 

   

The Bank must implement a plan to raise additional capital and meet or exceed certain minimum capital ratios within a specified time period.

 

   

The Bank may not pay dividends without prior approval from the FDIC.

 

   

The Bank must charge off certain non-performing and classified assets and formulate a written plan to deal with significant non-performing assets.

 

   

The Bank must continually reevaluate its Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses and accounting for Other Real Estate and ensure adequate provisions.

 

   

The Bank shall review its underwriting policy and is limited in making additional extensions of credit to certain borrowers.

 

   

The Bank must establish a written liquidity management plan, interest rate risk policy, budget and strategic business plan for submission to the FDIC.

 

   

The Bank’s ability to accept, renew or roll over brokered deposits will be limited without being granted a waiver of this provision by the FDIC.

The Bank’s Board of Directors has put plans in place to respond to and comply with the Consent Order. There is no assurance that the FDIC will accept such response or that the Bank will achieve compliance with the Consent Order.

23. Stock Incentive Plan (cont.)

The fair value of options granted was estimated on the date of grant using the Black Scholes Valuation method with the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield of 1.6% to 2.6%; a risk-free interest rate of 4%; and an expected life of 10 years.

In 2001, the Company instituted a director stock incentive plan. An aggregate of 24,000 shares have been reserved for issuance under the plan. Certain eligible directors have elected to receive payment for 2009, 2008 and 2007 director fees in shares of common stock, resulting in the issuance of 4,903 shares, 2,869 shares, and 1,814 shares, respectively.

In 2007, the Company instituted a restricted stock unit plan. A restricted stock unit represents the contingent right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock at a future date. The restricted stock units vest on a pro-rata basis in periods ranging from one to five years and are expensed accordingly on a straight-line basis. There were 14,267 and 5,850 restricted stock units granted in 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Note 4 – Accounting Estimates

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statement of condition and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly 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 and the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans.

A substantial portion of the Bank’s loans are secured by real estate in Georgia and Florida. Accordingly, the ultimate collectability of a substantial portion of the Bank’s loan portfolio is susceptible to changes in market conditions in that area. Management believes the allowance for losses on loans is adequate. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions.

Note 5 – Fair Value Measurement

Effective January 1, 2008, the Bank adopted “Fair Value Measurements” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements has been applied prospectively as of the beginning of the period and defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, and also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in active 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 or liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Note 5 – Fair Value Measurement (Continued)

 

In determining fair value, the Bank utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value. The following table presents the fair value hierarchy of financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value as of September 30, 2010:

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying balance sheet, as well as the general classifications of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Securities Available For Sale: The fair value of securities available for sale is determined by various valuation methodologies. Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flows. Level 2 securities include certain U.S. agency bonds, collateralized mortgage and debt obligations, and certain municipal securities. In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy and include certain residual municipal securities and other less liquid securities. Fair value of securities is based on available quoted market prices.

Impaired Loans: The fair value of impaired loans is estimated based on discounted contractual cash flows or underlying collateral values, where applicable. A loan is determined to be impaired if the Company believes it is probable that all principal and interest amounts due according to the terms of the note will not be collected as scheduled. The fair value of impaired loans is determined in accordance with “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan” and generally results in a specific reserve established through a charge to the provision for loan losses. Losses on impaired loans are charged to the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan is confirmed. Certain assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and therefore are not included in the table above. Management has determined that the majority of impaired loans are Level 2 assets due to the extensive use of market appraisals. To the extent that market appraisals or other methods do not produce reliable determinations of fair value, these assets are deemed to be Level 3.
