Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). In the opinion of Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation’s (the “Corporation”) management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been included. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2016 (the “2016 Annual Report”).

 

The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

 

Note 2 - Earnings per Common Share

 

Basic earnings per common share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share includes the potential dilution computed pursuant to the treasury stock method that could occur if stock options were exercised and converted into common stock, as well as the effect of restricted and performance shares becoming unrestricted common stock. The effects of stock options are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in periods in which the effect would be anti-dilutive. All weighted average shares, actual shares and per share information in the financial statements have been adjusted retroactively for the effect of stock dividends and splits.

Note 3 - Business Combinations

 

Harry R. Hirshorn & Company, Inc., d/b/a Hirshorn Boothby (“Hirshorn”)

 

The acquisition of Hirshorn, an insurance agency headquartered in the Chestnut Hill section of Philadelphia, was completed on May 24, 2017. Immediately after the acquisition, Hirshorn was merged into the Bank’s existing insurance subsidiary, Powers Craft Parker and Beard, Inc. The consideration paid by the Bank was $7.5 million, of which $5.8 million was paid at closing, with three contingent cash payments, not to exceed $575 thousand each, to be payable on each of May 24, 2018, May 24, 2019, and May 24, 2020, subject to the attainment of certain targets during the related periods. The acquisition enhanced the Bank’s ability to offer comprehensive insurance solutions to both individual and business clients and continues the strategy of selectively establishing specialty offices in targeted areas.

 

In connection with the Hirshorn acquisition, the following table details the consideration paid, the initial estimated fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition and the resulting goodwill recorded:

Pending Business Combination – Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc.

 

On January 30, 2017, the Corporation entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger to acquire Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. (“RBPI”), parent company of Royal Bank America (“RBA”), in a transaction with an aggregate value of $127.7 million (the “RBPI Acquisition”). In connection with the Acquisition, RBPI will merge with and into the Corporation and RBA will merge with and into the Bank. The RBPI Acquisition, which is expected to add approximately $602 million in loans and $630 million in deposits (based on December 31, 2016 financial information), strengthens the Corporation’s position as the largest community bank in Philadelphia’s western suburbs and, based on deposits, ranks it as the eighth largest community bank headquartered in Pennsylvania. The RBPI Acquisition, which will expand the Corporation's distribution network by providing entry into the new markets of New Jersey and Berks County, Pennsylvania, and an expanded physical presence in Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2017, subject to customary regulatory approvals and closing conditions.

Management evaluates the Corporation’s investment securities available for sale that are in an unrealized loss position in order to determine if the decline in fair value is other than temporary. The available for sale investment portfolio includes debt securities issued by U.S. government agencies, U.S. government-sponsored agencies, state and local municipalities and other issuers. All fixed income investment securities in the Corporation’s available for sale investment portfolio are rated as investment grade. Factors considered in the evaluation include the current economic climate, the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been below cost, interest rates and the bond rating of each security. The unrealized losses presented in the tables above are temporary in nature and are primarily related to market interest rates rather than the underlying credit quality of the issuers. The Corporation does not believe that these unrealized losses are other-than-temporary. The Corporation does not have the intent to sell these securities prior to their maturity or the recovery of their cost bases and believes that it is more likely than not that it will not have to sell these securities prior to their maturity or the recovery of their cost bases.

 

As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, securities having fair values of $105.9 million and $119.4 million, respectively, were specifically pledged as collateral for public funds, trust deposits, the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia discount window program, Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”) borrowings and other purposes. The FHLB has a blanket lien on non-pledged, mortgage-related loans as part of the Corporation’s borrowing agreement with the FHLB.

As part of the process of determining the Allowance for the different segments of the loan and lease portfolio, Management considers certain credit quality indicators. For the commercial mortgage, construction and commercial and industrial loan segments, periodic reviews of the individual loans are performed by both in-house staff as well as external loan reviewers. The result of these reviews is reflected in the risk grade assigned to each loan. These internally assigned grades are as follows:

 

Pass – Loans considered satisfactory with no indications of deterioration.

 

Special mention - Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.

 

Substandard - Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and payment capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard loans have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

 

Doubtful - Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

 

In addition, for the remaining segments of the loan and lease portfolio, which include residential mortgage, home equity lines and loans, consumer, and leases, the credit quality indicator used to determine this component of the Allowance is based on performance status.

 

The following tables detail the carrying value of all portfolio loans and leases by portfolio segment based on the credit quality indicators used to determine the Allowance as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

G. Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”)

 

The restructuring of a loan is considered a “troubled debt restructuring” if both of the following conditions are met: (i) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, and (ii) the creditor has granted a concession. The most common concessions granted include one or more modifications to the terms of the debt, such as (a) a reduction in the interest rate for the remaining life of the debt, (b) an extension of the maturity date at an interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, (c) a temporary period of interest-only payments, (d) a reduction in the contractual payment amount for either a short period or remaining term of the loan, and (e) for leases, a reduced lease payment. A less common concession granted is the forgiveness of a portion of the principal.

 

The determination of whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties takes into account not only the current financial condition of the borrower, but also the potential financial condition of the borrower, were a concession not granted. Similarly, the determination of whether a concession has been granted is very subjective in nature. For example, simply extending the term of a loan at its original interest rate or even at a higher interest rate could be interpreted as a concession unless the borrower could readily obtain similar credit terms from a different lender.

I. Loan Mark

 

Loans acquired in mergers and acquisitions are recorded at fair value as of the date of the transaction. This adjustment to the acquired principal amount is referred to as the “Loan Mark”. With the exception of purchased credit impaired loans, whose Loan Mark is accounted for under ASC 310-30, the Loan Mark is amortized or accreted as an adjustment to yield over the lives of the loans. The following tables detail, for acquired loans, the outstanding principal, remaining loan mark, and recorded investment, by portfolio segment, as of the dates indicated:

(2)
FHLB advances whereby the FHLB has the option, at predetermined times, to convert the fixed interest rate to an adjustable interest rate indexed to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). The Corporation has the option to prepay these advances, without penalty, if the FHLB elects to convert the interest rate to an adjustable rate. As of September 30, 2017, substantially all FHLB advances with this convertible feature are subject to conversion in fiscal 2017. These advances are included in the maturity ranges in which they mature, rather than the period in which they are subject to conversion.

Note 8 Stock-Based Compensation

 

A. General Information 

 

Prior to April 25, 2007, all shares authorized for grant as stock-based compensation were limited to grants of stock options. On April 25, 2007, the shareholders of the Corporation approved the Corporation’s “2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan” (the “2007 LTIP”) under which a total of 428,996 shares of the Corporation’s common stock were made available for award grants. On April 28, 2010, the shareholders of the Corporation approved the Corporation’s “2010 Long Term Incentive Plan” (the “2010 LTIP”) under which a total of 445,002 shares of the Corporation’s common stock were made available for award grants. On April 30, 2015, the shareholders of the Corporation approved the Amended and Restated Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Amended 2010 LTIP”), under which the total number of shares of Corporation Common Stock made available for award grants was increased by 500,000 shares to 945,002 shares.

 

In addition to the shareholder-approved plans mentioned in the preceding paragraph, the Corporation periodically authorizes grants of stock-based compensation as inducement awards to new employees. This type of award does not require shareholder approval in accordance with Rule 5635(c)(4) of the Nasdaq listing rules.

 

Equity awards are authorized to be in the form of, among others, options to purchase the Corporation’s common stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance stock units (“PSUs”).

 

RSUs have a restriction based on the passage of time. The grant date fair value of the RSUs is based on the closing price on the date of the grant.

 

PSUs have a restriction based on the passage of time and also have a restriction based on a performance criteria. The performance criteria may be a market-based criteria measured by the Corporation’s total shareholder return (“TSR”) relative to the performance of the community bank index or a bank peer group for the respective period. The grant date fair value of the PSUs, based on the Corporation’s TSR relative to the performance of the community bank index, is calculated using the Monte Carlo Simulation method. The performance criteria may also be based on a non-market-based criteria such as return on average equity. The grant date fair value of these PSUs is based on the closing price of the Corporation’s stock on the date of the grant. PSU grants may have a vesting percent ranging from 0% to 150%.

 

 

B. Stock Options

 

Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense over the vesting period. The fair value of stock option grants is determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The assumptions necessary for the calculation of the fair value include expected life of options, annual volatility of stock price, risk-free interest rate and annual dividend yield.

Note 9 - Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefit Plans

 

The Corporation has two defined benefit pension plans (“SERP I” and “SERP II”), both of which are non-qualified plans which are restricted to certain senior officers of the Corporation.

 

SERP I provides each participant with the equivalent pension benefit provided by a previously settled qualified defined benefit plan on any compensation and bonus deferrals that exceed the IRS limit applicable to such plan.

 

 

On February 12, 2008, the Corporation amended SERP I to freeze further increases in the defined-benefit amounts to all participants, effective March 31, 2008.

 

On April 1, 2008, the Corporation added SERP II, a non-qualified defined-benefit plan which was restricted to certain senior officers of the Corporation. Effective January 1, 2013, the Corporation curtailed SERP II, as further increases to the defined-benefit amounts to over 20% of the participants were frozen.

 

The Corporation also has a postretirement medical benefit plan (“PRBP”) that covers or will cover a portion of health insurance costs of certain retired employees and a group of current employees. The PRBP was closed to new participants in 1994. In 2007, the Corporation amended the PRBP to allow for settlement of obligations to certain current and retired employees. Certain retired participant obligations were settled in 2007 and current employee obligations were settled in 2008.

Note 10 - Segment Information

 

FASB Codification 280 – “Segment Reporting” identifies operating segments as components of an enterprise which are evaluated regularly by the Corporation’s chief operating decision maker, our Chief Executive Officer, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Corporation has applied the aggregation criterion set forth in this codification to the results of its operations.

 

The Corporation’s Banking segment consists of commercial and retail banking. The Banking segment is evaluated as a single strategic unit which generates revenues from a variety of products and services. The Banking segment generates interest income from its lending (including leasing) and investing activities and is dependent on the gathering of lower cost deposits from its branch network or borrowed funds from other sources for funding its loans, resulting in the generation of net interest income. The Banking segment also derives revenues from other sources including gains on the sale of available for sale investment securities, gains on the sale of residential mortgage loans, service charges on deposit accounts, cash sweep fees, overdraft fees, BOLI income and interchange revenue associated with its Visa Check Card offering.

 

The Wealth Management segment has responsibility for a number of activities within the Corporation, including trust administration, other related fiduciary services, custody, investment management and advisory services, employee benefits and IRA administration, estate settlement, tax services and brokerage. Bryn Mawr Trust of Delaware and Lau Associates are included in the Wealth Management segment of the Corporation since they have similar economic characteristics, products and services to those of the Wealth Management Division of the Corporation. Powers Craft Parker and Beard (“PCPB”), which was merged with the Corporation’s existing insurance subsidiary, Insurance Counsellors of Bryn Mawr (“ICBM”), and the Robert J. McAllister agency (“RJM”), which was acquired on April 1, 2015, now operate under the Powers Craft Parker and Beard, Inc. name. The Wealth Management Division has assumed oversight responsibility for all insurance services of the Corporation. Prior to the PCPB and RJM acquisitions, ICBM was reported through the Banking segment. Any adjustments to prior year figures are immaterial and are not reflected in the tables below.

As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, key economic assumptions and the sensitivity of the current fair value of MSRs to immediate 10 and 20 percent adverse changes in those assumptions are as follows:

These assumptions and sensitivities are hypothetical and should be used with caution. Changes in fair value based on a 10% variation in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumptions to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of the MSRs is calculated without changing any other assumption. In reality, changes in one factor may result in changes in another, which could magnify or counteract the sensitivities.

Note 13 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

 

Derivative financial instruments involve, to varying degrees, interest rate, market and credit risk. The Corporation manages these risks as part of its asset and liability management process and through credit policies and procedures. The Corporation seeks to minimize counterparty credit risk by credit limits and collateral agreements and utilizes certain derivative financial instruments to enhance its ability to manage interest rate risk that exists as part of its ongoing business operations. The derivative transactions entered into by the Corporation are an economic hedge of a derivative offerings to Bank customers. The Corporation does not use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

 

Customer Derivatives – Interest Rate Swaps. The Corporation enters into interest rate swaps that allow commercial loan customers to effectively convert a variable-rate commercial loan agreement to a fixed-rate commercial loan agreement. Under these agreements, the Corporation originates variable-rate loans with customers in addition to interest rate swap agreements, which serve to effectively swap the customers’ variable-rate loans into a fixed-rate loans. The Corporation then enters into corresponding swap agreements with swap dealer counterparties to economically hedge its exposure on the variable and fixed components of the customer agreements. The interest rate swaps with both the customers and third parties are not designated as hedges under FASB ASC 815 and are marked to market through earnings. As the interest rate swaps are structured to offset each other, changes to the underlying benchmark interest rates considered in the valuation of these instruments do not result in an impact to earnings; however, there may be fair value adjustments related to credit quality variations between counterparties, which may impact earnings as required by FASB ASC 820. As of September 30, 2017, there were no fair value adjustments related to credit quality.

 

Risk Participation Agreements. The Corporation may enter into a risk participation agreement (“RPA”) with another institution as a means to assume a portion of the credit risk associated with a loan structure which includes a derivative instrument, in exchange for fee income commensurate with the risk assumed. This type of derivative is referred to as an “RPA sold”. In addition, in an effort to reduce the credit risk associated with an interest rate swap agreement with a borrower for whom the Corporation has provided a loan structured with a derivative, the Corporation may purchase a risk participation agreement from an institution participating in the facility in exchange for a fee commensurate with the risk shared. This type of derivative is referred to as an “RPA purchased”.

The Corporation has an International Swaps and Derivatives Association agreement with a third party that requires a minimum dollar transfer amount upon a margin call. This requirement is dependent on certain specified credit measures. The amount of collateral posted with the third party at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $1.7 million and $0, respectively. The amount of collateral posted with the third party is deemed to be sufficient to collateralize both the fair market value change as well as any additional amounts that may be required as a result of a change in the specified credit measures. The aggregate fair value of all derivative financial instruments in a liability position with credit measure contingencies and entered into with the third party was $1.9 million and $0 as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Note 15 - Shareholders’ Equity

 

Dividend

 

On October 19, 2017, the Corporation’s Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.22 per share payable December 1, 2017 to shareholders of record as of November 1, 2017. During the third quarter of 2017, the Corporation paid or accrued, as applicable, a regular quarterly dividend of $0.22 per share. This dividend totaled $3.8 million, based on outstanding shares and restricted stock units as of August 2, 2017 of 17,248,984 shares.

 

 

S-3 Shelf Registration Statement and Offerings Thereunder 

 

In March 2015, the Corporation filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the “Shelf Registration Statement”) to replace its 2012 Shelf Registration Statement, which was set to expire in April 2015. The Shelf Registration Statement allows the Corporation to raise additional capital through offers and sales of registered securities consisting of common stock, debt securities, warrants to purchase common stock, stock purchase contracts and units or units consisting of any combination of the foregoing securities. Using the prospectus in the Shelf Registration Statement, together with applicable prospectus supplements, the Corporation may sell, from time to time, in one or more offerings, such securities in a dollar amount up to $200 million, in the aggregate.

 

In addition, the Corporation has in place under its Shelf Registration Statement a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”), which allows it to issue up to 1,500,000 shares of registered common stock. The Plan allows for the grant of a request for waiver (“RFW”) above the Plan’s maximum investment of $120 thousand per account per year. An RFW is granted based on a variety of factors, including the Corporation’s current and projected capital needs, prevailing market prices of the Corporation’s common stock and general economic and market conditions.

 

Options

In addition to shares that may be issued through the Plan, the Corporation also issues shares through the exercise of stock options and the vesting of RSUs and PSUs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, 58,027 shares were issued pursuant to the exercise of stock options, increasing shareholders’ equity by $1.3 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, 16,985 RSUs vested and were issued and 61,815 PSUs vested and were issued. The increase in shareholders’ equity related to the issuance of the RSUs and PSUs, which is recognized over the vesting period through stock based compensation expense, was $497 thousand and $930 thousand, respectively.

 

Stock Repurchases

 

On August 6, 2015, the Corporation announced a stock repurchase program (the “2015 Program”) under which the Corporation may repurchase up to 1,200,000 shares of the Corporation’s common stock, at an aggregate purchase price not to exceed $40 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, no shares were repurchased under the 2015 Program. As of September 30, 2017, the maximum number of shares remaining authorized for repurchase under the 2015 Program was 189,300. In addition to the 2015 Program, it is the Corporation’s practice to retire shares to its treasury account upon the vesting of stock awards to certain officers in order to cover the statutory income tax withholdings related to such vestings.

 

Note 16 - Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

 

The Corporation recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the Corporation would be more likely than not to sustain the position following an examination. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement with the relevant tax authority.

 

The Corporation is subject to income taxes in the United States federal jurisdiction and multiple state jurisdictions. The Corporation is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examination by taxing authorities for years before 2014.

 

The Corporation’s policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as income tax expense. No interest or penalties were accrued for the three or nine month periods ended September 30, 2017 or 2016.

 

Note 17 - Fair Value Measurement

 

The following disclosures are made in conjunction with the application of fair value measurements.

 

FASB ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurement” establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the nature of data inputs for fair value determinations, under which the Corporation is required to value each asset using assumptions that market participants would utilize to value that asset. When the Corporation uses its own assumptions, it is required to disclose additional information about the assumptions used and the effect of the measurement on earnings or the net change in assets for the period.

 

The Corporation’s investment securities available for sale, which generally include state and municipal securities, U.S. government agency securities and mortgage-related securities, are reported at fair value. These securities are valued by an independent third party. The third party’s evaluations are based on market data. They utilize evaluated pricing models that vary by asset and incorporate available trade, bid and other market information. For securities that do not trade on a daily basis, their pricing applications apply available information such as benchmarking and matrix pricing. The market inputs normally sought in the evaluation of securities include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes (only obtained from market makers or broker/dealers recognized as market participants), issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data. For certain securities, additional inputs may be used or some market inputs may not be applicable. Inputs are prioritized differently on any given day based on market conditions. 

 

 

U.S. Government agency securities are evaluated and priced using multi-dimensional relational models and option-adjusted spreads. State and municipal securities are evaluated on a series of matrices including reported trades and material event notices. Mortgage-related securities are evaluated using matrix correlation to treasury or floating index benchmarks, prepayment speeds, monthly payment information and other benchmarks. Other available for sale investments are evaluated using a broker-quote based application, including quotes from issuers. The Corporation has a sufficient understanding of the third party service’s valuation models, assumptions and inputs used in determining the fair value of available for sale investments to enable management to maintain an appropriate system of internal control.

 

The Corporation’s interest rate swaps are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. Prices of these instruments are obtained through an independent pricing source utilizing pricing information which may include market observed quotations for swaps, LIBOR rates, forward rates and rate volatility. When entering into a derivative contract, the Corporation is exposed to fair value changes due to interest rate movements, and the potential non-performance of our contract counterparty. The Corporation has developed a methodology to value the non-performance risk based on internal credit risk metrics and the unique characteristics of derivative instruments, which include notional exposure rather than principle at risk and interest payment netting. The results of this methodology are used to adjust the base fair value of the instrument for the potential counterparty credit risk.

 

The value of the investment portfolio and interest rate swaps are determined using three broad levels of inputs:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

 

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

 

Level 3 – Instruments whose significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

These levels are not necessarily an indication of the risks or liquidity associated with these investments. The following tables summarize the assets at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 that are recognized on the Corporation’s balance sheet using fair value measurement determined based on the differing levels of input.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of $6 thousand and an increase of $37 thousand were recorded in the Allowance as a result of adjusting the carrying value and estimated fair value of the impaired loans in the above tables. As it relates to the fair values of assets measured on a recurring basis, there have been no transfers between levels during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.


Impaired Loans

 

The Corporation evaluates and values impaired loans at the time the loan is identified as impaired, and the fair values of such loans are estimated using Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. Each loan’s collateral has a unique appraisal and management’s discount of the value is based on the factors unique to each impaired loan. The significant unobservable input in determining the fair value is management’s subjective discount on appraisals of the collateral securing the loan, which range from 10% - 50%. Collateral may consist of real estate and/or business assets including equipment, inventory and/or accounts receivable and the value of these assets is determined based on the appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers hired by the Corporation. Appraised and reported values may be discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, estimated costs to sell, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and the client’s business.

 

The Corporation has an appraisal policy in which an appraisal is obtained for a commercial loan at the point at which the loan either becomes nonperforming or is downgraded to a substandard or worse classification. For consumer loans, the Corporation obtains updated appraisals when a loan becomes 90 days past due or when it receives other information that may indicate possible impairment. Based on the appraisals obtained by the Corporation, an appropriate Allowance is allocated to the particular loan.

 

 

Other Real Estate Owned

Other real estate owned consists of properties acquired as a result of foreclosures and deeds in-lieu-of foreclosure. Properties are classified as OREO and are reported at the lower of cost or fair value less cost to sell, and are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

 

 

Mortgage Servicing Rights

 

MSRs do not trade in an active, open market with readily observable prices. Accordingly, the Corporation obtains the fair value of the MSRs using a third-party pricing provider. The provider determines the fair value by discounting projected net servicing cash flows of the remaining servicing portfolio. The valuation model used by the provider considers market loan prepayment predictions and other economic factors which the Corporation considers to be significant unobservable inputs. The fair value of MSRs is mostly affected by changes in mortgage interest rates since rate changes cause the loan prepayment acceleration factors to increase or decrease. All assumptions are market driven. The Corporation has a sufficient understanding of the third party service’s valuation models, assumptions and inputs used in determining the fair value of MSRs to enable management to maintain an appropriate system of internal control. Mortgage servicing rights are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as the valuation is model driven and primarily based on unobservable inputs.

 

 

Note 18 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

FASB ASC 825, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” requires disclosure of the fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate such value. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other fair value techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument. The aggregate fair value amounts presented below do not represent the underlying value of the Corporation.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair values.

 

Investment Securities

 

Estimated fair values for investment securities are generally valued by an independent third party based on market data, utilizing pricing models that vary by asset and incorporate available trade, bid and other market information. Management reviews, annually, the process utilized by its independent third-party valuation experts. On a quarterly basis, Management tests the validity of the prices provided by the third party by selecting a representative sample of the portfolio and obtaining actual trade results, or if actual trade results are not available, competitive broker pricing. See Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

 

Loans Held for Sale

 

The fair value of loans held for sale is based on pricing obtained from secondary markets.

 

Net Portfolio Loans and Leases

 

For variable-rate loans that re-price frequently and which have no significant change in credit risk, estimated fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values of certain mortgage loans and consumer loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality and is indicative of an entry price. The estimated fair value of nonperforming loans is based on discounted estimated cash flows as determined by the internal loan review of the Corporation or the appraised fair value of the underlying collateral, as determined by independent third party appraisers. This technique does not reflect an exit price.

 

Impaired Loans

 

The Corporation evaluates and values impaired loans at the time the loan is identified as impaired, and the fair values of such loans are estimated using Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. Each loan’s collateral has a unique appraisal and management’s discount of the value is based on the factors unique to each impaired loan. The significant unobservable input in determining the fair value is management’s subjective discount on appraisals of the collateral securing the loan, which range from 10% - 50%. Collateral may consist of real estate and/or business assets including equipment, inventory and/or accounts receivable and the value of these assets is determined based on the appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers hired by the Corporation. Appraised and reported values may be discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, estimated costs to sell, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and the client’s business.

 

Mortgage Servicing Rights

 

The fair value of the MSRs for these periods was determined using a proprietary third-party valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds and discount rates. Due to the proprietary nature of the valuation model used, the Corporation classifies the value of MSRs as using Level 3 inputs.

 

Other Assets

 

The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable, income taxes receivable and other investments approximates fair value.

 

Deposits

 

The estimated fair values disclosed for noninterest-bearing demand deposits, savings, NOW accounts, and market rate accounts are, by definition, equal to the amounts payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of expected monthly maturities on the certificate of deposit. FASB Codification 825 defines the fair value of demand deposits as the amount payable on demand as of the reporting date and prohibits adjusting estimated fair value from any value derived from retaining those deposits for an expected future period of time.

 

 

Short-term borrowings

 

The carrying amount of short-term borrowings, which include overnight repurchase agreements, fed funds and FHLB advances with original maturity of one year or less, approximates their fair value.

 

Long-term FHLB Advances

 

The fair value of long-term FHLB advances (with original maturities of greater than one year) is established using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on mid-term and long term borrowings.

 

Subordinated Notes

 

The fair value of the Notes is estimated by discounting the principal balance using the FHLB yield curve for the term to the call date as the Corporation has the option to call the Notes. The Notes are classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

 

Other Liabilities

 

The carrying amounts of accrued interest payable and other accrued payables approximate fair value.

 

Interest Rate Swaps and Risk Participation Agreements

 

The Corporation’s interest rate swaps and RPAs are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. Prices of these instruments are obtained through an independent pricing source utilizing pricing information which may include market observed quotations for swaps, LIBOR rates, forward rates and rate volatility. When entering into a derivative contract, the Corporation is exposed to fair value changes due to interest rate movements, and the potential non-performance of our contract counterparty. The Corporation has developed a methodology to value the non-performance risk based on internal credit risk metrics and the unique characteristics of derivative instruments, which include notional exposure rather than principle at risk and interest payment netting. The results of this methodology are used to adjust the base fair value of the instrument for the potential counterparty credit risk.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Instruments

 

Estimated fair values of the Corporation’s commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and financial guarantees are not included in the table below as their carrying values generally approximate their fair values. These instruments generate fees that approximate those currently charged to originate similar commitments.

Note 19 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

FASB ASU No. 2014-09 (Topic 606), “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”

 

Issued in May 2014, ASU 2014-09 will require an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers using a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of the contracts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. This amendment defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016- 08, “Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Gross versus Net),” which amends the principal versus agent guidance and clarifies that the analysis must focus on whether the entity has control of the goods or services before they are transferred to the customer. In addition, the FASB issued ASU Nos. 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and 2016-12, Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, both of which provide additional clarification of certain provisions in Topic 606. These Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) updates are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, but early adoption is permitted. Early adoption is permitted only as of annual reporting periods after December 15, 2016. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or retrospectively with the cumulative effect transition method. The Corporation has evaluated all revenue streams, accounting policies, practices and reporting to identify and understand any impact on the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Corporation’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Our evaluation indicates that adoption of this guidance will not have a material effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

 

FASB ASU 2017-04 (Topic 350), “Intangibles – Goodwill and Others”

 

Issued in January 2017, ASU 2017-04 simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 including interim periods within those periods. The Corporation is evaluating the effect that ASU 2017-04 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

 

FASB ASU 2017-01 (Topic 805), “Business Combinations”

 

Issued in January 2017, ASU 2017-01 clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. ASU 2017-01 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 including interim periods within those periods. The Corporation is evaluating the effect that ASU 2017-01 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

FASB ASU 2016-15 (Topic 320), “Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments”

 

Issued in August 2016, ASU 2016-15 provides guidance on eight specific cash flow issues and their disclosure in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The issues addressed include debt prepayment, settlement of zero-coupon debt, contingent consideration in business combinations, proceeds from settlement of insurance claims, proceeds from settlement of BOLI, distributions received from equity method investees, beneficial interests in securitization transactions, and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the Predominance principle. 2016-15 is effective for the annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance and does not anticipate a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

 

FASB ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326), “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”

 

Issued in June 2016, ASU 2016-13 significantly changes how companies measure and recognize credit impairment for many financial assets. The new current expected credit loss model will require companies to immediately recognize an estimate of credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of the financial assets that are in the scope of the standard. The ASU also makes targeted amendments to the current impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Corporation is evaluating the effect that ASU 2016-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

 

FASB ASU 2016-02 (Topic 842), “Leases”

 

Issued in February 2016, ASU 2016-02 revises the accounting related to lessee accounting. Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases. The new lease guidance also simplifies the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions primarily because lessees must recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the first interim period within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The standard is required to be adopted using the modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The Corporation is evaluating the effect that ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

FASB ASU 2016-01 (Subtopic 825-10), “Financial Instruments – Overall, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”

 

Issued in January 2016, ASU 2016-01 provides that equity investments will be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. When fair value is not readily determinable an entity may elect to measure the equity investment at cost, minus impairment, plus or minus any change in the investment’s observable price. For financial liabilities that are measured at fair value, the amendment requires an entity to present separately, in other comprehensive income, any change in fair value resulting from a change in instrument-specific credit risk. ASU 2016-01 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. Entities may apply this guidance on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Corporation has evaluated the effect of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 and had determined that it will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

FASB ASU 2017-08 (Subtopic 310-20), “Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities

 

Issued in March 2017, ASU 2017-08 shortens the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendment requires the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments does not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Corporation has evaluated ASU 2017-08 and determined that it currently follows the guidance related to premium amortization on callable debt securities.

 

FASB ASU 2017-07—Compensation—Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost

 

Issued in March 2017, ASU 2017-07 require that an employer report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented. If a separate line item or items are used to present the other components of net benefit cost, that line item or items must be appropriately described. If a separate line item or items are not used, the line item or items used in the income statement to present the other components of net benefit cost must be disclosed. The amendments in this update also allow only the service cost component to be eligible for capitalization when applicable (for example, as a cost of internally manufactured inventory or a self-constructed asset). The amendments in this update are effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual period for which financial statements (interim or annual) have not been issued or made available for issuance. The Corporation is evaluating the effect that ASU 2017-07 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, but does not expect that it will materially affect the Corporation’s financial statements.

 

 

 

ITEM 2 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operation and Financial Condition

 

The following is the Corporation’s discussion and analysis of the significant changes in the financial condition, results of operations, capital resources and liquidity presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Current performance does not guarantee, and may not be indicative of, similar performance in the future.

 

 

Brief History of the Corporation

 

The Bryn Mawr Trust Company (the “Bank”) received its Pennsylvania banking charter in 1889 and is a member of the Federal Reserve System. In 1986, Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation (the “Corporation”) was formed and on January 2, 1987, the Bank became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation. The Bank and Corporation are headquartered in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, a western suburb of Philadelphia. The Corporation and its subsidiaries offer a full range of personal and business banking services, consumer and commercial loans, equipment leasing, mortgages, insurance and wealth management services, including investment management, trust and estate administration, retirement planning, custody services, and tax planning and preparation from 25 full-service branches, eight limited-hour retirement community offices, one limited-service branch, six wealth management offices and a full-service insurance agency located throughout Montgomery, Delaware, Chester, Dauphin and Philadelphia counties in Pennsylvania and New Castle county in Delaware. The common stock of the Corporation trades on the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) under the symbol BMTC.

 

The Corporation operates in a highly competitive market area that includes local, national and regional banks as competitors along with savings banks, credit unions, insurance companies, trust companies, registered investment advisors and mutual fund families. The Corporation and its subsidiaries are regulated by many agencies including the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), NASDAQ, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), the Federal Reserve and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities. The goal of the Corporation is to become the preeminent community bank and wealth management organization in the Philadelphia area.

 

Critical Accounting Policies, Judgments and Estimates

 

The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation and its subsidiaries conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). All inter-company transactions are eliminated in consolidation and certain reclassifications are made when necessary to conform the previous year’s financial statements to the current year’s presentation. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Corporation is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the dates of the balance sheets and revenues and expenditures for the periods presented. However, there are uncertainties inherent in making these estimates and actual results could differ from these estimates. The Corporation has identified certain areas that require estimates and assumptions, which include the allowance for loan and lease losses (the “Allowance”), the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, the fair value of investment securities, the fair value of derivative financial instruments, and the valuation of mortgage servicing rights, deferred tax assets and liabilities, benefit plans and stock-based compensation. The Corporation’s derivative financial instruments are not exchange-traded and therefore are valued utilizing models that use as their basis readily observable market parameters, specifically the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) swap curve, and are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. In addition, certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the instruments are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment).

 

These critical accounting policies, along with other significant accounting policies, are presented in Footnote 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Corporation’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “2016 Annual Report”).

 

In addition to the critical accounting policies described and referenced above, as it relates to derivative financial instruments, the Corporation recognizes all derivative instruments at fair value as either assets or liabilities in other assets or other liabilities on the balance sheet. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship. As of September 30, 2017, the Corporation’s derivative financial instruments are not designated as hedges and gains or losses are recognized in current earnings.

 

Pending Business Combination – Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc.

 

On January 30, 2017, the Corporation entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger to acquire Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. (“RBPI”), parent company of Royal Bank America (“RBA”), in a transaction with an aggregate value of $127.7 million (the “Acquisition” or the “RBPI Acquisition”). In connection with the Acquisition, RBPI will merge with and into the Corporation and RBA will merge with and into the Bank. The Acquisition, which is expected to add approximately $602 million in loans and $630 million in deposits (based on December 31, 2016 financial information), is expected to strengthen the Corporation’s position as the largest community bank in Philadelphia’s western suburbs and, based on deposits, will rank it as the eighth largest community bank headquartered in Pennsylvania. The Acquisition, which will expand the Corporation's distribution network by providing entry into the new markets of New Jersey and Berks County, Pennsylvania, and an expanded physical presence in Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2017 and is subject to applicable regulatory approvals and closing conditions.

 

 

Other Recent Acquisitions and Expansions

 

In addition to the RBPI Acquisition, the Bank has continued to execute on its strategies of diversification and acquiring and/or establishing specialty offices in strategically targeted areas where management believes there to be a high demand for the Bank’s products and services. On May 24, 2017, the Bank completed its acquisition of Hirshorn Boothby, a full-service insurance agency established in 1931 and headquartered in the Chestnut Hill section of Philadelphia. Hirshorn Boothby was immediately merged into the Bank’s existing insurance subsidiary, Powers Craft Parker and Beard, Inc., expanding the footprint of this growing segment.

 

On May 12, 2017, the Corporation established a wealth management-focused office in Princeton, New Jersey which is expected to complement the already-established presence in central New Jersey that is to be acquired in the anticipated merger with RBPI.

 

Beginning in the second quarter of 2017, the Bank’s newly established Capital Markets department commenced operations focusing on providing risk management services to address the needs of its commercial customer base. These capital markets capabilities enable the Bank to offer hedging tools for qualified commercial customers through the use of interest rate swaps and options designed to mitigate the interest rate risk on variable rate loans. This interest rate hedging offering allows the Bank to participate and lead in larger and longer-dated credits without incurring additional interest rate risk. Additional services will focus on assisting qualified customers in hedging their foreign exchange risk and meeting their trade finance needs through enhanced international services capabilities.

The following sections discuss, in detail, the Corporation’s results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the same periods in 2016, and the changes in its financial condition as of September 30, 2017 as compared to December 31, 2016.

 

 

Components of Net Income

 

Net income is comprised of five major elements:

 

 

Net Interest Income, or the difference between the interest income earned on loans, leases and investments and the interest expense paid on deposits and borrowed funds;

 

Provision For Loan and Lease Losses, or the amount added to the Allowance to provide for estimated inherent losses on portfolio loans and leases;

 

Noninterest Income, which is made up primarily of wealth management revenue, insurance revenue, gains and losses from the sale loans, gains and losses from the sale of investment securities available for sale and other fees from loan and deposit services;

 

Noninterest Expense, which consists primarily of salaries and employee benefits, occupancy, intangible asset amortization, professional fees and other operating expenses; and

 

Income Taxes, which include state and federal jurisdictions.

 

 

TAX-EQUIVALENT NET INTEREST INCOME

 

Net interest income is the primary source of the Corporation’s revenue. The below tables present a summary, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, of the Corporation’s average balances and tax-equivalent yields earned on its interest-earning assets and the tax-equivalent rates paid on its interest-bearing liabilities. The tax-equivalent net interest margin is the tax-equivalent net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The tax-equivalent net interest spread is the difference between the weighted average tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets and the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The effect of noninterest-bearing liabilities represents the effect on the net interest margin of net funding provided by noninterest-earning assets, noninterest-bearing liabilities and shareholders’ equity.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, tax-equivalent net interest income increased $2.7 million, or 10.3%, to $29.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to $26.9 million for the same period in 2016. The increase in net interest income between the periods was largely related to the $203.3 million increase in average loans and leases for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016. The tax-equivalent yield earned on loans and leases increased ten basis points from the third quarter of 2016 to the third quarter of 2017. The impact of the accretion of purchase accounting adjustments was comparable for both periods, contributing $708 thousand to interest income, or ten basis points to the tax-equivalent yield on loans and leases for the three months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to a contribution of $578 thousand, or nine basis points to the tax-equivalent yield on loans and leases, for the same period in 2016. In addition to increases in loans and leases, the average balance of available for sale investment securities increased by $85.2 million and experienced a 26 basis point increase in tax-equivalent yield earned between the third quarters of 2016 and 2017. Partially offsetting the impact of the earning asset volume increase between the periods was a $141.9 million increase in average interest-bearing deposits, coupled with an eleven basis point increase in rate paid on deposits from the third quarter of 2016 to the third quarter of 2017.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, tax-equivalent net interest income increased $5.7 million, or 7.2%, to $85.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to $79.7 million for the same period in 2016. The increase in net interest income between the periods was largely related to the $218.0 million increase in average loans and leases for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016. The tax-equivalent yield earned on loans and leases decreased five basis points from the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The impact of the accretion of purchase accounting adjustments contributed significantly to the decrease in tax-equivalent yield earned on loans and leases and the rate paid on time deposits. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the accretion of purchase accounting adjustments on loans contributed $1.8 million to interest income, or nine basis points to the tax-equivalent yield on loans and leases, as compared to a contribution of $2.6 million, or 15 basis points to the tax-equivalent yield on loans and leases, for the same period in 2016. In addition to increases in loans and leases, the average balance of available for sale investment securities increased by 56.5 million and experienced a 21 basis point increase in tax-equivalent yield earned between the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Partially offsetting the impact of the earning asset volume increase between the periods was a $165.5 million increase in average interest-bearing deposits, coupled with an eleven basis point increase in rate paid on deposits from the third quarter of 2016 to the third quarter of 2017. The accretion of purchase accounting adjustments related to acquired time deposits reduced interest expense on time deposits for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 by $52 thousand, or two basis points, as compared to $200 thousand, or eleven basis points, for the same period in 2016.

Tax-Equivalent Net Interest Margin

 

The tax-equivalent net interest margin of 3.71% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was unchanged from the same period in 2016. A ten basis point increase in tax-equivalent yield on loans and leases was largely offset by a twelve basis point increase in rate paid on interest-bearing deposits between the periods. The contribution of fair value mark accretion to the tax equivalent net interest margin was also unchanged, at nine basis points for each of the three month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2017.

 

The tax-equivalent net interest margin of 3.71% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was an eight basis point decrease from 3.79% for the same period in 2016. The decrease was largely the result of the five basis point decrease in tax-equivalent yield earned on loans and leases and the eleven basis point increase in rate paid on interest-bearing deposits. Partially offsetting these reductions to tax-equivalent net interest margin was a 21 basis point increase in tax-equivalent yield earned on available for sale investment securities between the periods. The contribution of fair value mark accretion to the tax equivalent net interest margin accounted for nine basis points of the margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to 14 basis points for the same period in 2016.

Interest Rate Sensitivity 

 

The Corporation actively manages its interest rate sensitivity position. The objectives of interest rate risk management are to control exposure of net interest income to risks associated with interest rate movements and to achieve sustainable growth in net interest income. The Corporation’s Asset Liability Committee (“ALCO”), using policies and procedures approved by the Corporation’s Board of Directors, is responsible for the management of the Corporation’s interest rate sensitivity position. The Corporation manages interest rate sensitivity by changing the mix, pricing and re-pricing characteristics of its assets and liabilities, through the management of its investment portfolio, its offerings of loan and selected deposit terms and through wholesale funding. Wholesale funding consists of multiple sources including borrowings from the FHLB, the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia’s discount window, certificates of deposit from institutional brokers, including the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARS”), the Insured Network Deposit (“IND”) Program, the Charity Deposits Corporation (“CDC”), the Insured Cash Sweep (“ICS”) and the Pennsylvania Local Government Investment Trust (“PLGIT”).

 

The Corporation uses several tools to measure its interest rate risk including interest rate sensitivity analysis, or gap analysis, market value of portfolio equity analysis, interest rate simulations under various rate scenarios and tax-equivalent net interest margin trend reports. The results of these reports are compared to limits established by the Corporation’s ALCO policies and appropriate adjustments are made if the results are outside the established limits.

 

The following table demonstrates the annualized result of an interest rate simulation and the estimated effect that a parallel interest rate shift, or “shock”, in the yield curve and subjective adjustments in deposit pricing, might have on the Corporation’s projected net interest income over the next 12 months.

 

This simulation assumes that there is no growth in interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities over the next 12 months. The changes to net interest income shown below are in compliance with the Corporation’s policy guidelines.

The above interest rate simulation suggests that the Corporation’s balance sheet is asset sensitive as of September 30, 2017 in the +100 basis point scenario, which is similar to the December 31, 2016 simulation. The asset sensitivity table indicates that a 100, 200 or 300 basis point increase in interest rates would have a positive impact on net interest income over the next 12 months. The balance sheet is less asset sensitive in comparison to December 31, 2016. This is a result of the addition of fixed rate assets funded with short term liabilities in anticipation of the RBPI Acquisition later this year and positioning the combined entity’s investments and funding to align with management’s desired liquidity and interest rate risk profile.

 

 

The interest rate simulation is an estimate based on assumptions, which are derived from past behavior of customers, along with expectations of future behavior relative to interest rate changes. Given the current extended period of very low interest rates, the reliability of the Corporation’s assumptions in the interest rate simulation model is more uncertain than in other periods. Actual customer behavior may be different than expected behavior, which could cause an unexpected outcome and may result in lower net interest income.

 

Gap Analysis

 

The interest sensitivity, or gap analysis, shows interest rate risk by identifying re-pricing gaps in the Corporation’s balance sheet. All assets and liabilities are categorized in the following table according to their behavioral sensitivity, which is usually the earliest of either: re-pricing, maturity, contractual amortization, prepayments or likely call dates. Non-maturity deposits, such as NOW, savings and money market accounts are spread over various time periods based on the expected sensitivity of these rates considering liquidity and the investment preferences of the Corporation. Non-rate-sensitive assets and liabilities are placed in a separate period. Capital is spread over time periods to reflect the Corporation’s view of the maturity of these funds.

The table above indicates that the Corporation is asset-sensitive in the immediate 90-day time frame and may experience an increase in net interest income during that time period if rates rise. Conversely, if rates decline, net interest income may decline. It should be noted that the gap analysis is only one tool used to measure interest rate sensitivity and should be used in conjunction with other measures such as the interest rate simulation discussed above. The gap analysis measures the timing of changes in rate, but not the true weighting of any specific component of the Corporation’s balance sheet. The asset-sensitive position reflected in this gap analysis is similar to the Corporation’s position at December 31, 2016.

 

 

PROVISION FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, the Corporation recorded a Provision of $1.3 million which was a $79 thousand decrease from the same period in 2016. Net charge-offs for the third quarter of 2017 were $728 thousand as compared to $704 thousand for the same period in 2016. The loan and lease portfolio experienced improvements in the historic charge-off rates during the lookback period and in certain credit quality and economic indicators used in the Allowance calculation. The slight decrease in the Provision between the periods reflects the effect these quantitative and qualitative factor improvements had on the overall Allowance requirement, largely offset by the increase in Allowance related to the growth of the portfolio.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Corporation recorded a Provision of $1.5 million which was a $1.7 million decrease from the same period in 2016. Net charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $2.0 million as compared to $1.4 million for the same period in 2016. The decrease in the Provision was largely the result of improvements in the historic charge-off rates during the lookback period and certain credit quality indicators and economic indicators used in the Allowance calculation. For a general discussion of the Allowance, and our policies related thereto, refer to page 34 of the Corporation’s 2016 Annual Report.

 

Asset Quality and Analysis of Credit Risk

 

As of September 30, 2017, total nonperforming loans and leases decreased by $3.9 million, to $4.5 million, representing 0.17% of portfolio loans and leases, as compared to $8.4 million, or 0.33% of portfolio loans and leases as of December 31, 2016. The decrease in nonperforming loans and leases was comprised of pay-offs and pay-downs of $2.8 million, charge-offs of $1.1 million, foreclosures taken into OREO of $306 thousand and upgrades to performing status of $608 thousand of loans and leases classified as nonperforming as of December 31, 2016. These decreases were partially offset by the addition of $986 thousand of new nonperforming loans and leases as of September 30, 2017.

 

As of September 30, 2017, the Allowance of $17.0 million represented 0.64% of portfolio loans and leases, a five basis point decrease from 0.69% as of December 31, 2016. The Allowance on originated portfolio loans, as a percentage of originated portfolio loans, was 0.70% as of September 30, 2017 as compared to 0.78% as of December 31, 2016. Loans acquired in mergers are recorded at fair value as of the date of acquisition. This fair value estimate takes into account an estimate of the expected lifetime losses of the acquired loans. As such, an acquired loan will not generally become subject to additional Allowance unless it becomes impaired.

 

As of September 30, 2017, the Corporation had OREO valued at $865 thousand, as compared to $1.0 million as of December 31, 2016 One residential mortgage loan was foreclosed and the $306 thousand collateral was taken into OREO. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, impairments to OREO of $121 thousand were recorded, related to OREO properties acquired in the CBH merger. The balance of OREO as of September 30, 2017 was comprised of three residential properties, one of which is a manufactured housing property acquired in the CBH merger. All properties are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value less cost to sell.

 

As of September 30, 2017, the Corporation had $8.6 million of troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”), of which $6.6 million were in compliance with the modified terms and excluded from non-performing loans and leases. As of December 31, 2016, the Corporation had $9.0 million of TDRs, of which $6.4 million were in compliance with the modified terms, and were excluded from non-performing loans and leases.

 

As of September 30, 2017, the Corporation had a recorded investment of $10.5 million of impaired loans and leases which included $8.6 million of TDRs. Impaired loans and leases are those for which it is probable that the Corporation will not be able to collect all scheduled principal and interest in accordance with the original terms of the loans and leases. Impaired loans and leases as of December 31, 2016 totaled $14.4 million, which included $9.0 million of TDRs. Refer to Note 5H in the Notes to unaudited consolidated Financial Statements for more information regarding the Corporation’s impaired loans and leases.

 

The Corporation continues to be diligent in its credit underwriting process and proactive with its loan review process, including the engagement of the services of an independent outside loan review firm, which helps identify developing credit issues. Proactive steps that are taken include the procurement of additional collateral (preferably outside the current loan structure) whenever possible and frequent contact with the borrower. The Corporation believes that timely identification of credit issues and appropriate actions early in the process serve to mitigate overall risk of loss.

NONINTEREST INCOME

 

Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared to the Same Period in 2016

 

Noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $1.8 million from the same period in 2016. An increase of $551 thousand in fees for wealth management services resulted as wealth assets under management, administration, supervision and brokerage increased $2.46 billion from September 30, 2016 to September 30, 2017. Insurance revenue increased $487 thousand for the third quarter of 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016, largely due to the May 2017 acquisition of Hirshorn Boothby. In addition, revenue from our Capital Markets initiative, which was launched in the second quarter of 2017, contributed $843 thousand to noninterest income.

 

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared to the Same Period in 2016

 

Noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $2.9 million from the same period in 2016. An increase of $1.4 million in fees for wealth management was primarily related to the growth in the wealth assets under management, administration, supervision and brokerage mentioned in the preceding paragraph. In addition, revenue from our Capital Markets initiative, which was launched in the second quarter of 2017, contributed $1.8 million to noninterest income. Partially offsetting these increases was a $492 thousand decrease in gain on sale of loans, as the volume of residential mortgage loan originations from new home buyers as well as refinancing activity has slowed due to rising interest rates.

Wealth Assets Under Management, Administration, Supervision and Brokerage (“Wealth Assets”)

 

Wealth Asset accounts are categorized into two groups; the first account group consists predominantly of clients whose fees are determined based on the market value of the assets held in their accounts (“Market Value” fee basis). The second account group consists predominantly of clients whose fees are set at fixed amounts (“Fixed Fee” basis), and, as such, are not affected by market value changes.

Customer Derivatives

 

To accommodate the risk management needs of qualified commercial customers, the Bank enters into financial derivative transactions consisting of interest rate swaps, options, risk participation agreements and foreign exchange contracts. Derivative financial instruments involve, to varying degrees, interest rate, market and credit risk. Market risk exposure from customer derivative positions is managed by simultaneously entering into matching transactions with institutional dealer counterparties that offset customer contracts in notional amount and term. Derivative contracts create counterparty credit risk with both the Bank’s customers and with institutional dealer counterparties. The Corporation manages customer counterparty credit risk through its credit policy, approval processes, monitoring procedures and by obtaining adequate collateral, when appropriate. The Bank seeks to minimize dealer counterparty credit risk by establishing credit limits and collateral agreements through industry standard agreements published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) and associated credit support annex (CSA) agreements. None of the Bank’s outstanding derivative contracts associated with the customer derivative program is designated as a hedge and none is entered into for speculative purposes. Derivative instruments are recorded at fair value, with changes in fair values recognized in earnings as components of noninterest income and noninterest expense on the consolidated statements of income.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared to the Same Period in 2016

 

Noninterest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased $2.8 million from the same period in 2016. The increase was largely related to a $2.0 million increase in salaries and wages due to staffing increases from our Capital Markets initiative, the Hirshorn Boothby acquisition and the Princeton wealth management office, annual salary and wage increases and increases in incentive compensation. In addition, an $850 thousand increase in due diligence, merger-related and merger integration costs primarily related to the RBPI Acquisition, and a $597 thousand increase in other operating expenses, which included a $368 thousand increase in contributions, largely comprised of contributions to local schools under the Pennsylvania Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) program, contributed to the increase. Contributions made through the EITC program result in tax credits towards the Bank’s Pennsylvania bank shares tax obligation.

 

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared to the Same Period in 2016

 

Noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased $6.8 million from the same period in 2016. Contributing to the increase were increases of $4.1 million in salaries and wages, which included staffing additions from the Hirshorn Boothby acquisition, the Capital Markets initiative, our new Princeton wealth management office, as well as annual salary increases and increases in incentive compensation. Due diligence and merger-related expenses increased $2.6 million, primarily related to the RBPI Acquisition and other operating expenses increased $2.1 million as detailed in the table below. As mentioned in the preceding paragraph, contributions increased related to the Corporation’s participation in the EITC program. Partially offsetting these expense increases was a $662 thousand decrease in impairments of MSRs, which saw a significant increase during the third quarter of 2016, as well as a $675 thousand decrease in Pennsylvania bank shares tax in connection with tax credits earned through the EITC program.

INCOME TAXES

 

Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was $4.8 million, as compared to $4.3 million for the same period in 2016. The tax expense recorded reflects a decrease in the effective tax rate from 31.7% for the third quarter of 2016 to 30.7% for the third quarter of 2017. The decrease in effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016 was related to recognition, during the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, of excess tax benefits of $694 thousand and $385 thousand, respectively, related to the stock based compensation vesting and option exercises, partially offset by the non-deductible merger costs related to the anticipated RBPI Acquisition incurred in the third quarter of 2017.

 

Income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was $14.3 million, as compared to $13.5 million for the same period in 2016. The tax expense recorded reflects a decrease in the effective tax rate from 33.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to 32.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease in effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in 2016 was related to recognition, during both periods, of excess tax benefits of $953 thousand and $445 thousand, respectively, related to the stock based compensation vesting and option exercises, partially offset by the non-deductible merger costs related to the anticipated RBPI Acquisition incurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Cash and Investment Securities

 

As of September 30, 2017, liquidity remained strong as the Corporation had $34.6 million of cash balances at the Federal Reserve and $2.3 million in other interest-bearing accounts, along with significant borrowing capacity as discussed in the “Liquidity” section below.

 

Investment securities available for sale as of September 30, 2017 totaled $471.7 million, as compared to $567.0 million as of December 31, 2016. The decrease was primarily related to the maturing, at the beginning of January 2017, of $200.0 million of short-term U.S. Treasury bills, partially offset by purchases made during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 in a strategic effort to position the investment portfolio in anticipation of the RBPI Acquisition.

The capital ratios for the Bank and the Corporation, as of September 30, 2017, as shown in the above tables, indicate levels well above the regulatory minimum to be considered “well capitalized.” At both the Bank and Corporation levels, the capital ratios to risk-weighted assets have all decreased from their December 31, 2016 levels largely as a result of the increase in risk-weighted assets, much of which was in the commercial mortgage, construction, and commercial and industrial segments of the loan portfolio, which are typically risk-weighted at 100%.

 

Liquidity

 

The Corporation’s liquidity position is managed on a daily basis as part of the daily settlement function and continuously as part of the formal asset liability management process. The Bank’s liquidity is maintained by managing its core deposits as the primary source, purchasing federal funds, selling loans in the secondary market, borrowing from the FHLB and the Federal Reserve Bank, and purchasing and issuing wholesale certificates of deposit as its secondary sources.

Quarterly, the ALCO reviews the Corporation’s liquidity needs and reports its findings to the Corporation’s Board of Directors.

 

The Corporation has an agreement with IND to provide up to $40 million, excluding accrued interest, of money market and NOW funds at an agreed upon interest rate equal to the current Fed Funds rate plus 20 basis points. The Corporation had $26.3 million in balances as of September 30, 2017 under this program.

 

The Corporation continually evaluates the cost and mix of its retail and wholesale funding sources relative to earning assets and expected future earning-asset growth. The Corporation believes that with its current branch network, along with the available borrowing capacity at FHLB and other sources, it has sufficient capacity available to fund expected earning-asset growth.

 

Discussion of Segments 

 

The Corporation has two principal segments as defined by FASB ASC 280, “Segment Reporting.” The segments are Banking and Wealth Management (see Note 10 in the accompanying Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements).

 

 

The Wealth Management Segment recorded a pre-tax segment profit (“PTSP”) of $3.6 million and $10.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, as compared to PTSP of $3.8 million and $10.8 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2016. The Wealth Management Segment provided 23.3% and 24.6% of the Corporation’s pre-tax profit for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2017, respectively, as compared to 27.3% and 26.9% for the same respective periods in 2016. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2017, both insurance revenues and fees for wealth management services increased from the same respective periods in 2016.

 

The Banking Segment recorded a PTSP of $11.9 million and $32.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. Respectively, as compared to PTSP of $10.0 million and $29.3 million for the same respective periods in 2016. The Banking Segment provided 76.7% and 75.4% of the Corporation’s pre-tax profit for both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2017, respectively, as compared to 72.7% and 73.1% for the same respective periods in 2016.

 

Off Balance Sheet Risk 

 

The Corporation is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit.

 

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the loan agreement. Total commitments to extend credit at September 30, 2017 were $727.3 million, as compared to $675.4 million at December 31, 2016.

 

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to a customer for a third party. Such standby letters of credit are issued to support private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is similar to that involved in granting loan facilities to customers. The Bank’s obligation under standby letters of credit at September 30, 2017 amounted to $16.4 million, as compared to $12.7 million at December 31, 2016.

 

Estimated fair values of the Corporation’s off-balance sheet instruments are based on fees and rates currently charged to enter into similar loan agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. Since fees and rates charged for off-balance sheet items are at market levels when set, there is no material difference between the stated amount and the estimated fair value of off-balance sheet instruments.

Other Information

 

Effects of Inflation 

 

Inflation has some impact on the Corporation’s operating costs. Unlike many industrial companies, however, substantially all of the Corporation’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on the Corporation’s performance than the general level of inflation. Over short periods of time, interest rates may not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as prices of goods and services.

 

Effects of Government Monetary Policies

 

The earnings of the Corporation are and will be affected by domestic economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government and its agencies. An important function of the Federal Reserve Board is to regulate the money supply and interest rates. Among the instruments used to implement those objectives are open market operations in United States government securities and changes in reserve requirements against member bank deposits. These instruments are used in varying combinations to influence overall growth and distribution of bank loans, investments, and deposits, and their use may also affect rates charged on loans or paid for deposits.

 

The Corporation is a member of the Federal Reserve System and, therefore, the policies and regulations of the Federal Reserve Board have a significant effect on its deposits, loans and investment growth, as well as the rate of interest earned and paid, and are expected to affect the Corporation’s operations in the future. The effect of such policies and regulations upon the future business and earnings of the Corporation cannot be predicted.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION.

 

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

In a Complaint filed on April 11, 2017 in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, the Corporation was named as a defendant in a lawsuit entitled Parshall v. Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc., et al. In relevant part, Mr. Parshall, a purported shareholder of RBPI, alleged that the Corporation, as a “control person” of RBPI, should be liable for what Mr. Parshall claimed to be inadequate disclosures in the proxy statement/prospectus RBPI sent to its shareholders in connection with soliciting approval of the Corporation’s acquisition of RBPI. Mr. Parshall purported to bring this claim on behalf of a class of similarly-situated RBPI shareholders, although no class was certified by the court. Mr. Parshall did not articulate any monetary damages in his complaint, but sought the right to prevent the Corporation’s acquisition of RBPI (or in the alternative, if it does proceed, rescind it or award rescissory damages), an order for an amended proxy statement/prospectus, a declaratory judgment that the defendants, including the Corporation, violated federal securities laws, and unspecified attorney's fees and litigation costs. On September 27, 2017, the parties submitted a stipulation dismissing as “moot” the action with prejudice as to Mr. Parshall’s claims and without prejudice as to the putative class. The court approved the stipulation and entered an order dismissing the action on September 28, 2017. In accordance with the stipulation, the court retained jurisdiction to decide any motion or request for attorney’s fees and expenses by Mr. Parshall’s counsel.
