Accounting Policies [Abstract]
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization The Corporation, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Bank and CFS, provides a wide range of banking, financing, fiduciary and other financial services to its clients. The Corporation and the Bank are subject to the regulations of certain federal and state agencies and undergo periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities. CRM, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation, which was formed and began operations on May 31, 2016, is a Nevada-based captive insurance company which insures against certain risks unique to the operations of the Corporation and its subsidiaries and for which insurance may not be currently available or economically feasible in today's insurance marketplace. CRM pools resources with several other similar insurance company subsidiaries of financial institutions to spread a limited amount of risk among themselves. CRM is subject to regulations of the State of Nevada and undergoes periodic examinations by the Nevada Division of Insurance. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Exchange Act. These financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its subsidiaries, and all significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Amounts in the prior periods' consolidated financial statements are reclassified whenever necessary to conform to the current period's presentation. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and disclosures provided, and actual results could differ. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) and disclosures necessary for the fair presentation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been included. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Corporation's 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The results of operations for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire year or any other period. Reclassifications Amounts in the prior year financial statements are reclassified whenever necessary to conform to the current year's presentation. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Standards Adopted in 2023: Financial Instruments - Credit Losses - Topic 326 In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The objective of the ASU is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The ASU supersedes prior GAAP by replacing the incurred loss impairment method with a methodology that reflects lifetime expected credit losses and requires the consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to form loss estimates. In November 2019, the FASB adopted an amendment to postpone the effective date of ASU 2016-13 to January 2023, for some entities, including certain Securities and Exchange Commission filers. As a smaller reporting company, the Corporation was eligible for and elected delayed adoption. The Corporation adopted the standard on January 1, 2023, and recognized a one-time cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings, of $1.5 million, or $1.1 million, net of tax effects, of which $1.1 million reflected the establishment of an allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments, and $0.4 million reflected additional allowance related to the loan portfolio. No adjustment was recognized related to the securities portfolio. The quantitative component of the estimate relies on the statistical relationship between the projected value of an economic indicator and the implied historical loss experience among a curated group of peers. The Corporation utilized regression analyses of peer data, in which the Corporation was included, and where observed credit losses and selected economic factors were used to determine suitable loss drivers for modeling the lifetime rates of probability of default (PD). A loss given default rate (LGD) is assigned to each pool for each period based on these PD outcomes. The model fundamentally utilizes an expected discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis for all loan portfolio segments. The DCF analysis is run at the instrument-level and incorporates an array of loan-specific data points and segment-implied assumptions to determine the lifetime expected loss attributable to each instrument. An implicit "hypothetical loss" is derived for each period of the DCF, and helps establish the present value of future cash flows for each period. The reserve applied to a specific instrument is the difference between the sum of the present value of future cash flows and the book balance of the loan at the measurement date. Portfolio segments are the level at which loss assumptions are applied to a pool of loans based on the similarity of risk characteristics inherent in the included instruments, relying on FFIEC Call Report codes. The loss driver for each loan portfolio segment is derived from a readily available and reasonable economic forecast, chiefly the FOMC of the Federal Reserve's projections of civilian unemployment and year-over-year U.S. GDP growth. Forecasts are applied over a four-quarter period and revert to the lookback period's historical mean for the economic indicator over an eight-quarter horizon, on a straight-line basis. The model incorporates qualitative factor adjustments in order to calibrate the model for risk in each portfolio segment that may not be captured through quantitative analysis. Determinations regarding qualitative adjustments are reflective of management's expectation of loss conditions differing from those already captured in the quantitative component of the model. The Corporation evaluates all assets exhibiting potential credit risk, including off-balance sheet exposures on unfunded commitments, and debt securities. Allowances on unfunded commitments utilize a calculated funding rate to estimate the Corporation's future obligations, and applies the overall loss rate assigned to each concurrent pool. Securities backed by U.S. government-related agencies are determined to be zero-credit loss securities. Potential losses on obligations of states, political subdivisions, and corporate bonds and notes are analyzed by management to determine whether any of the losses may be attributable to credit-related factors on an individual basis. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 had an initial impact on the allowance for credit losses on loans of $0.4 million, reflecting changes in the methodology when compared to the allowance for loan losses on loans at December 31, 2022. The increase represents an increase of $0.2 million in the allowance relating to commercial loans, the combined effect of changes to commercial & agricultural and commercial real estate, and an increase of $0.2 million in consumer loans, mostly in relation to indirect auto lending. The remainder of the adoption impact, or $1.1 million, related to the establishment of an allowance for credit losses for unfunded commitments. Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures - Topic 326 In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. The ASU made certain targeted amendments specific to troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) by creditors and vintage disclosure related to gross write-offs. Upon adoption, the Corporation was required to apply the loan and refinancing restructuring guidance to determine whether a modification results in a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan, rather than applying the recognition and measurement guidance for TDRs. The ASU also requires companies to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investment in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20. The Corporation adopted the standard prospectively, beginning January 1, 2023, concurrently with the aforementioned ASU 2016-13, and its impact can be found within Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements. The Corporation established a methodology for identifying and reporting the financial impact of modifications made to borrowers who are deemed to be experiencing financial difficulty. Reference Rate Reform - ASC 848 ASU No. 2022-06, Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, was issued in December 2022 and defers the date for which accounting relief can be applied under Topic 848. ASU 2022-06 applies to entities that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The objective of the guidance in Topic 848 is to ease the burden in accounting related to the recognition of the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting. A sunset provision was included within Topic 848 based on expectations of when LIBOR would cease being published. The Corporation had adopted the accounting relief provisions of Topic 848 effective October 1, 2020. The amendments in ASU 2022-06 defer the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024, after which entities will no longer be able to apply the accounting relief in Topic 848. ASU 2022-06 was effective for all entities upon its issuance. The adoption of the provisions of Topic 848, as amended, did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements. Accounting Standards Pending Adoption Disclosure Improvements - Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements, was issued in October 2023 and modifies the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of Topics in the Accounting Standards Codification, in response to SEC Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplifications, issued on August 17, 2018. The SEC identified several disclosure requirements that overlap with U.S. GAAP, but require incremental information to comply with disclosure standards in Regulations S-X and Regulation S-K. ASU 2023-06 codifies specific amendments to align the codification with SEC regulations. The effective date for each amendment is that date on which each disclosure requirement is removed from Regulation S-K and Regulation S-X. The Corporation anticipates that certain amendments will pertain to the Corporation's financial disclosures or presentation, but cannot determine with certainty which amendments are applicable until removal from Regulation S-K or Regulation S-X. Use of Analogous Accounting Standards Under U.S. GAAP, there is no specific guidance related to government assistance received by a for-profit entity that is not in the form of a loan, income tax credit, or revenue from a contract with a customer. Therefore, the Corporation must rely upon analogous accounting standards to determine appropriate treatment when such circumstances arise. The Corporation accounted for the recognition of the Employee Retention Tax Credit (ERTC) using ASC 958-605, Revenue Recognition for Not-for-Profit entities. ASC 958-10-15-1 specifies that certain Subtopics within ASC 958-605 also apply to business entities. The Corporation considers the recognition of the ERTC to be analogous to the stipulations for "conditional contributions" under ASC 958-605-20. Conditional contributions have at least one barrier needing to be overcome before the recipient is entitled to the assets transferred or promised; there must be a right-of-return to the contributor; and barriers to the condition should be measurable. The Corporation recognized the gross amount of the ERTC through non-interest income during the period in which the barrier was overcome, identified as the period during which amended tax returns were filed. The Corporation incurred and recognized additional income tax expense during the period in relation to its amended tax returns.

The Corporation, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Bank and CFS, provides a wide range of banking, financing, fiduciary and other financial services to its clients. The Corporation and the Bank are subject to the regulations of certain federal and state agencies and undergo periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.
