ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
Description		This standard requires credit losses on most financial assets 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 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 to determine the initial amortized cost basis. The subsequent accounting for PCD financial assets is the same expected loss model described above.
Effective Date		January 1, 2023
Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements		We have formed an implementation team led by the Corporation's Risk Management function. The team is reviewing the requirements of the ASU and evaluating methods and models for implementation. As of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the new standard is adopted, the Corporation expects to recognize a one-time cumulative-effect adjustment to the allowance for loan losses, which will flow through retained earnings. After adoption, the new standard will result in earlier recognition of additions to the allowance for loan losses and possibly a larger allowance for loan loss balance with a corresponding increase in the provision for loan losses in results of operations; however, the Corporation is continuing to evaluate the impact of the pending adoption of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements. A third-party vendor has been selected to assist with the CECL calculations and the implementation process has started. The Corporation is running the CECL model in test mode in 2021.

ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief
Description		This ASU allows entities to irrevocably elect, upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, the fair value option on financial instruments that (1) were previously recorded at amortized cost and (2) are within the scope of ASC 326-20 if the instruments are eligible for the fair value option under ASC 825-10. The fair value option election does not apply to held-to-maturity debt securities. Entities are required to make this election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. ASU 2019-05 has the same effective date as ASU 2016-13. On October 16, 2019, FASB approved its August 2019 proposal to grant certain small public companies a delay in the effective date of ASU 2016-13. For the Corporation, the delay makes the ASU effective January 2023. Since the Corporation currently meets the SEC definition of a small reporting company, the delay will be applied to the Corporation. Early adoption is permitted.
Effective Date		January 1, 2023
Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements		The Corporation continues to review the ASU as part of its adoption of ASU 2016-13.

ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting
Description		This ASU provides temporary, optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for, or recognizing the effects of, the transition away from the LIBOR or other interbank offered rate on financial reporting. To help with the transition to new reference rates, the ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to affected contract modifications and hedge accounting relationships. The main provisions include: (1) a change in a contract's reference interest rate would be accounted for as a continuation of that contract rather than as the creation of a new one for contracts, including loans, debts, leases, and other arrangements that meet specific criteria, and (2) when updating its hedging strategies in response to reference rate reform, an entity would be allowed to preserve its accounting. The guidance is applicable only to contracts or hedge accounting relationships that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. Because the guidance is meant to help entities through the transition period, it will be in effect for a limited time and will not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, for which an entity has elected certain optional expedients that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship.
Effective Date		March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022
Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements		The Corporation continues to review the ASU as part of its adoption but does not expect it to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
