Recent Accounting Standards Update

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS UPDATES (“ASU”)

ASU 2018‑14, Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Topic 715‑20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans

Issued: August 2018

Summary: ASU 2018‑14 modifies the disclosure requirements under ASC 715‑20 for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans. Those modifications include the removal and addition of disclosure requirements as well as clarifying specific disclosure requirements.

Effective Date: The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. This Update will have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations because Juniata’s Board of Directors terminated the Company’s defined benefit retirement plan, The Juniata Valley Bank Retirement Plan, effective November 30, 2018. All participants have been properly notified and settlement of all obligations is expected to occur in the third quarter of 2019. See Note 12 for additional information.

ASU 2018‑13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement

Issued: August 2018

Summary: ASU 2018‑13 modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements required under ASC 820. Those modifications include the removal and addition of disclosure requirements as well as clarifying specific disclosure requirements.

Effective Date: The amendments become effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted upon issuance of this ASU. An entity is permitted to early adopt all disclosure requirements in the ASU or early adopt only the removed and modified disclosures and delay adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. This Update is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

ASU 2017‑04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment

Issued: January 2017

Summary: ASU 2017‑04 eliminates the requirement of Step 2 in the current guidance to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill to measure a goodwill impairment charge. Instead, entities will record an impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value in Step 1 of the current guidance.

Effective Date: The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this Update is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

ASU 2016‑13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

Issued: June 2016

Summary: ASU 2016‑13 requires credit losses on most financial assets to 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 ASU also replaces the current accounting model for purchased credit impaired loans and debt securities. The allowance for credit losses for purchased financial assets with a more-than insignificant amount of credit deterioration since origination (“PCD assets”), should be determined in a similar manner to other financial assets measured on an amortized cost basis. However, upon initial recognition, the allowance for credit losses is added to the purchase price (“gross up approach”) to determine the initial amortized cost basis. The subsequent accounting for PCD financial assets is the same expected loss model described above.

Further, the ASU made certain targeted amendments to the existing impairment model for available for sale debt securities. For an available for sale debt security for which there is neither the intent nor a more-likely-than-not requirement to sell, an entity will record credit losses as an allowance rather than a write-down of the amortized cost basis.

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief. This ASU provides transition relief for ASU 2016-13 by providing entities with an alternative to irrevocably elect the fair value option for eligible financial assets measured at amortized cost upon adoption of the new credit losses standard. To be eligible for the transition election, the existing financial asset must be both within the scope of the new credit losses standard and eligible for applying the fair value option in ASC 825-10. The election must be applied on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is not available for either available-for-sale or held-to-maturity debt securities. For entities that have not yet adopted ASU 2016-13, the effective dates for ASU 2019-05 are the same as those in ASU 2016-13. For entities that have adopted ASU 2016-13, ASU 2019-05 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted once ASU 2016-13 has been adopted.

Effective Date: ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. While the Company’s senior management is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the amended guidance on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures, it expects the allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) to increase upon adoption given that the allowance will be required to cover the full remaining expected life of the portfolio, rather than the incurred loss under current U.S. GAAP. The extent of this increase is still being evaluated and will depend on economic conditions and the composition of the Company’s loan portfolio at the time of adoption. In preparation, the Company has taken steps to prepare for the implementation when it becomes effective by forming an internal taskforce, gathering pertinent data, participating in training courses, and partnering with a software provider that specializes in ALLL analysis, as well as assessing the sufficiency of data currently available through its core database.  On July 17, 2019, FASB voted to delay the effective date of this ASU for smaller reporting companies until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. As the Corporation is a smaller reporting company, the proposed delay would be applicable, if approved by FASB.
