PART I
Item 1. Business:
a) | General |
Unity Bancorp, Inc., ("we", "us", "our", the "Company" or "Registrant"), is a bank holding company incorporated under the laws of the State of New Jersey to serve as a holding company for Unity Bank (the “Bank”). The Company has also elected to become a financial holding company pursuant to regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve system (the "FRB"). The Company was organized at the direction of the Board of Directors of the Bank for the purpose of acquiring all the capital stock of the Bank. Pursuant to the New Jersey Banking Act of 1948 (the "Banking Act"), and pursuant to approval of the shareholders of the Bank, the Company acquired the Bank and became its holding company on December 1, 1994. The primary activity of the Company is ownership and supervision of the Bank. The Company also owns 100 percent of the common equity of Unity (NJ) Statutory Trust II. The trust has issued $10.3 million of preferred securities to investors. The Company also serves as a holding company for its wholly-owned subsidiary, Unity Risk Management, Inc. Unity Risk Management, Inc. is a captive insurance company that insures risks to the Bank and the Company not covered by the traditional commercial insurance market.
The Bank received its charter from the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance on September 13, 1991 and opened for business on September 16, 1991. The Bank is a full-service commercial bank, providing a wide range of business and consumer financial services through its main office in Clinton, New Jersey and sixteen additional New Jersey branches located in Edison, Emerson, Flemington, Highland Park, Lakewood, Linden, Middlesex, North Plainfield, Phillipsburg, Scotch Plains, Somerset, Somerville, South Plainfield, Union, Washington and Whitehouse. In addition, the Bank has two Pennsylvania branches located in Bethlehem and Forks Township. The Bank’s primary service area encompasses the Route 22/Route 78 corridors between the Bethlehem, Pennsylvania office and its Linden, New Jersey branch, as well as Bergen County and Ocean County, New Jersey.
The principal executive offices of the Company are located at 64 Old Highway 22, Clinton, New Jersey 08809, and the telephone number is (800) 618-2265. The Company’s website address is www.unitybank.com.
Business of the Company
The Company’s primary business is ownership and supervision of the Bank. The Company, through the Bank, conducts a traditional and community-oriented commercial banking business and offers services, including personal and business checking accounts, time deposits, money market accounts and savings accounts, typical of a community banking business. The Company structures its specific services and charges in a manner designed to attract the business of the small and medium sized business and professional community, as well as that of individuals residing, working and shopping in its service area. The Company engages in a wide range of lending activities and offers commercial, Small Business Administration (“SBA”), consumer, mortgage, home equity and personal loans.
Service Areas
The Company’s primary service area is defined as the neighborhoods served by the Bank’s offices. The Bank’s main office, located in Clinton, NJ, in combination with its Flemington and Whitehouse offices, serves the greater area of Hunterdon County. The Bank’s North Plainfield, Somerset and Somerville offices serve those communities located in the northern, eastern and central parts of Somerset County and the southernmost communities of Union County. The Bank’s Scotch Plains, Linden and Union offices serve most of the communities in Union County and the southwestern communities of Essex County. The offices in Middlesex, South Plainfield, Highland Park and Edison extend the Company’s service area into Middlesex County. The Bank’s Phillipsburg and Washington offices serve Warren County. The Bank’s Emerson office serves Bergen County. The Bank’s Lakewood office serves Ocean County. The Bank’s Forks Township and Bethlehem offices serve Northampton County, Pennsylvania.

Competition
The Company is located in an extremely competitive area. The Company’s service area is also serviced by national banks, major regional banks, large thrift institutions, financial technology companies and a variety of credit unions. In addition, since passage of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Modernization Act of 1999 (the “Modernization Act”), securities firms and insurance companies have been allowed to acquire or form financial institutions, thereby increasing competition in the financial services market. Most of the Company’s competitors have substantially more capital, and therefore greater lending limits than the Company. The Company’s competitors generally have established positions in the service area and have greater resources than the Company with which to pay for advertising, physical facilities, personnel and interest on deposited funds. The Company relies on the competitive pricing of its loans, deposits and other services, as well as its ability to provide local decision-making and personal service in order to compete with these larger institutions.
Employees and Human Capital
At December 31, 2022, the Company employed 224 full-time and 8 part-time employees. None of the Company’s employees are represented by any collective bargaining units. The Company believes that its relations with its employees are good and believes its ability to attract and retain employees is a key to the Company’s success. Accordingly, the Company strives to offer competitive salaries and employee benefits to all employees and monitor salaries in its market areas. In addition, the principal purposes of the Company’s equity incentive plans are to attract, retain and motivate selected employees, consultants and directors through the granting of stock-based compensation awards.
SUPERVISION AND REGULATION
General Supervision and Regulation
Bank holding companies and banks are extensively regulated under both federal and state law, and these laws are subject to change. As an example, in the summer of 2010, Congress passed, and the President signed, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) (discussed below). These laws and regulations are intended to protect depositors, not stockholders. To the extent that the following information describes statutory and regulatory provisions, it is qualified in its entirety by reference to the particular statutory and regulatory provisions. Any change in the applicable law or regulation may have a material effect on the business and prospects of the Company and the Bank. Management of the Company is unable to predict, at this time, the impact of future changes to laws and regulations.
General Bank Holding Company Regulation
General: As a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, (the "BHCA"), the Company is subject to the regulation and supervision of the FRB. The Company is required to file with the FRB annual reports and other information regarding its business operations and those of its subsidiaries. Under the BHCA, activities of a holding company and those of its subsidiaries are limited to banking, managing or controlling banks, furnishing services to or performing services for its subsidiaries or engaging in any other activity which the FRB determines to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be properly incident thereto. However, as a financial holding company, the Company may engage in a broader scope of activities. See "Financial Holding Company Status".
The BHCA requires, among other things, the prior approval of the FRB in any case where a bank holding company proposes to; (i) acquire all or substantially all the assets of any other bank; (ii) acquire direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the outstanding voting stock of any bank (unless it owns a majority of such bank’s voting shares); or (iii) merge or consolidate with any other bank holding company. The FRB will not approve any acquisition, merger or consolidation that would have a substantially anti-competitive effect, unless the anti-competitive impact of the proposed transaction is clearly outweighed by a greater public interest in meeting the convenience and needs of the community to be served. The FRB also considers capital adequacy, as well as other financial and management resources,
4
and future prospects of the companies and banks concerned, along with the convenience and needs of the community to be served.
The BHCA also generally prohibits a bank holding company, with certain limited exceptions, from; (i) acquiring or retaining direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the outstanding voting stock of any company which is not a bank or bank holding company; or (ii) engaging directly or indirectly in activities other than those of banking, managing or controlling banks, or performing services for its subsidiaries, unless such non-banking business is determined by the FRB to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be properly incident thereto. In making such determinations, the FRB is required to weigh the expected benefits to the public such as greater convenience, increased competition or gains in efficiency, against the possible adverse effects such as undue concentration of resources, decreased or unfair competition, conflicts of interest or unsound banking practices.
The BHCA was substantially amended through the Modernization Act. The Modernization Act permits bank holding companies and banks, which meet certain capital, management and Community Reinvestment Act standards, to engage in a broader range of non-banking activities. In addition, bank holding companies, which elect to become financial holding companies, may engage in certain banking and non-banking activities without prior FRB approval. Finally, the Modernization Act imposes certain privacy requirements on all financial institutions and their treatment of consumer information. The Company has elected to become a financial holding company. See "Financial Holding Company Status" below.
There are a number of obligations and restrictions imposed on bank holding companies and their depository institution subsidiaries by law and regulatory policy that are designed to minimize potential loss to the depositors of such depository institutions and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) Deposit Insurance Fund in the event the depository institution becomes in danger of default. Under regulations of the FRB, a bank holding company is required to serve as a source of financial strength to its subsidiary depository institutions and to commit resources to support such institutions in circumstances where it might not do so absent such policy. The FRB also has the authority under the BHCA to require a bank holding company to terminate any activity or to relinquish control of a non-bank subsidiary upon the FRB’s determination that such activity or control constitutes a serious risk to the financial soundness and stability of any bank subsidiary of the bank holding company.
Capital Adequacy Guidelines
In December 2010 and January 2011, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (the “Basel Committee”) published the final reforms on capital and liquidity generally referred to as “Basel III.” In July 2013, the FRB, the FDIC and the Comptroller of the Currency adopted final rules (the “New Rules”), which implement certain provisions of Basel III and the Dodd-Frank Act. The New Rules replaced the existing general risk-based capital rules of the various banking agencies with a single, integrated regulatory capital framework. The New Rules require higher capital cushions and more stringent criteria for what qualifies as regulatory capital. The New Rules were effective for the Bank and the Company on January 1, 2015.
Under the New Rules, a bank holding company or bank, not eligible for or electing to use the Community Banking Leverage Ratio (discussed below), is required to maintain the following minimum capital ratios, expressed as a percentage of risk-weighted assets:
● | Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio of 4.5% (the “CET1”); |
● | Tier 1 Capital Ratio (CET1 capital plus “Additional Tier 1 capital”) of 6.0%; |
● | Total Capital Ratio (Tier 1 capital plus Tier 2 capital) of 8.0%. |
In addition, such a bank holding company or bank is also subject to a leverage ratio of 4% (calculated as Tier 1 capital to average consolidated assets as reported on the consolidated financial statements).
5
The New Rules also require a “capital conservation buffer.” As of January 1, 2019, a bank holding company or bank is required to maintain a 2.5% capital conservation buffer, which is composed entirely of CET1, on top of the minimum risk-weighted asset ratios described above, resulting in the following minimum capital ratios:
● | CET1 of 7%; |
● | Tier 1 Capital Ratio of 8.5%; |
● | Total Capital Ratio of 10.5%. |
The purpose of the capital conservation buffer is to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. Banking institutions with a CET1, Tier 1 Capital Ratio and Total Capital Ratio above the minimum set forth above but below the capital conservation buffer will face constraints on their ability to pay dividends, repurchase equity and pay discretionary bonuses to executive officers, based on the amount of the shortfall.
The New Rules provide for several deductions from and adjustments to CET1. For example, mortgage servicing rights, deferred tax assets dependent upon future taxable income and significant investments in common equity issued by nonconsolidated financial entities must be deducted from CET1 to the extent that any one of those categories exceeds 10% of CET1 or all such categories in the aggregate exceed 15% of CET1.
Under the New Rules, banking organizations may make a one-time permanent election regarding the treatment of accumulated other comprehensive income items in determining regulatory capital ratios. Effective as of January 1, 2015, the Company and the Bank elected to exclude accumulated other comprehensive income items for purposes of determining regulatory capital.
While the New Rules generally require the phase-out of non-qualifying capital instruments such as trust preferred securities and cumulative perpetual preferred stock, holding companies with less than $15 billion in total consolidated assets as of December 31, 2009, such as the Company, may permanently include non-qualifying instruments that were issued and included in Tier 1 or Tier 2 capital prior to May 19, 2010 in Additional Tier 1 or Tier 2 capital until they redeem such instruments or until the instruments mature.
The New Rules prescribe a standardized approach for calculating risk-weighted assets. Depending on the nature of the assets, the risk categories generally range from 0% for U.S. Government and agency securities, to 600% for certain equity exposures, and result in higher risk weights for a variety of asset categories. In addition, the New Rules provide more advantageous risk weights for derivatives and repurchase-style transactions cleared through a qualifying central counterparty and increase the scope of eligible guarantors and eligible collateral for purposes of credit risk mitigation.
Consistent with the Dodd-Frank Act, the New Rules adopt alternatives to credit ratings for calculating the risk-weighting for certain assets.
On September 17, 2019, the federal banking agencies issued a final rule providing simplified capital requirements for certain community banking organizations (banks and holding companies) with less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets, implementing provisions of The Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act (“EGRRCPA”). Under the rule, a qualifying community banking organization would be eligible to elect the community bank leverage ratio framework, or continue to measure capital under the existing Basel III requirements set forth in the New Rules. The community bank capital rule took effect January 1, 2020, and qualifying community banking organizations may elect to opt into the new community bank leverage ratio (“CBLR”) in their call report for the first quarter of 2020 or any quarter thereafter.
A qualifying community banking organization (“QCBO”) is defined as a bank, a savings association, a bank holding company or a savings and loan holding company with:
● | a leverage capital ratio of greater than 9.0%; |
● | total consolidated assets of less than $10.0 billion; |
6
● | total off-balance sheet exposures (excluding derivatives other than credit derivatives and unconditionally cancelable commitments) of 25% or less of total consolidated assets; |
● | total trading assets and trading liabilities of 5% or less of total consolidated assets. |
A QCBO opting into the CBLR must maintain a CBLR of 9.0%, subject to a two quarter grace period to come back into compliance, provided that the QCBO maintains a leverage ratio of more than 8.0% during the grace period. A QCBO failing to satisfy these requirements must comply with the Basel III requirements as implemented by the New Rules. The numerator of the CBLR is Tier 1 capital, as calculated under the New Rules. The denominator of the CBLR is the QCBO’s average assets, calculated in accordance with the QCBO’s Call Report instructions and less assets deducted from Tier 1 capital. Commencing with the first quarter of 2020, the Bank elected to comply with the CBLR, rather than the capital requirements specified in the New Rules. At December 31, 2022, the Bank’s CBLR was 10.34%.
Pursuant to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”), each federal banking agency has promulgated regulations, specifying the levels at which an insured depository institution such as the Bank would be considered “well capitalized,” “adequately capitalized,” “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized,” or “critically undercapitalized,” and providing for certain mandatory and discretionary supervisory actions based on the capital level of the institution. To qualify to engage in financial activities under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, all depository institutions must be “well capitalized.”
The New Rules also revised the regulations implementing these provisions of FDICIA, to change the capital levels applicable to each designation. Under the New Rules, an institution will be classified as “well capitalized” if it (i) has a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10.0 percent, (ii) has a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 8.0 percent, (iii) has a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 5.0 percent, (iv) has a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 6.5 percent and (v) meets certain other requirements. An institution will be classified as “adequately capitalized” if it (i) has a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 8.0 percent, (ii) has a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 6.0 percent, (iii) has a Tier 1 leverage ratio of at least 4.0 percent, (iv) has a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 4.5 percent and (v) does not meet the definition of “well capitalized.” An institution will be classified as “undercapitalized” if it (i) has a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 8.0 percent, (ii) has a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less than 6.0 percent, (iii) has a Tier 1 leverage ratio of less than 4.0 percent or (iv) has a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of less than 4.5 percent. An institution will be classified as “significantly undercapitalized” if it (i) has a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 6.0 percent, (ii) has a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less than 4.0 percent, (iii) has a Tier 1 leverage ratio of less than 3.0 percent or (iv) has a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of less 3.0 percent. An institution will be classified as “critically undercapitalized” if it has a tangible equity to total assets ratio that is equal to or less than 2.0 percent. An insured depository institution may be deemed to be in a lower capitalization category if it receives an unsatisfactory examination rating.
General Bank Regulation
As a New Jersey-chartered commercial bank, the Bank is subject to the regulation, supervision and control of the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance (the “Department”). As an FDIC-insured institution, the Bank is subject to regulation, supervision and control of the FDIC, an agency of the federal government. The regulations of the FDIC and the Department affect virtually all activities of the Bank, including the Bank's minimum capital level, the Bank's ability to pay dividends, expand through new branches or acquisitions and various other matters.
Insurance of Deposits: The Dodd-Frank Act has caused significant changes in the FDIC’s insurance of deposit accounts. Among other things, the Dodd-Frank Act permanently increased the FDIC deposit insurance limit to $250 thousand per depositor.
On February 7, 2011, the FDIC announced the approval of the assessment system mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act. Dodd-Frank required that the base on which deposit insurance assessments are charged be revised from one based on domestic deposits to one based on assets. The FDIC’s rule to base the assessment on average total consolidated assets minus average tangible equity instead of domestic deposits lowered assessments for many community banks with less than $10 billion in assets and reduced the Company’s costs.
7
Dividend Rights: Under the Banking Act, a bank may declare and pay dividends only if, after payment of the dividend, the capital stock of the bank will be unimpaired and either the bank will have a surplus of not less than 50% of its capital stock or the payment of the dividend will not reduce the bank’s surplus. Unless and until the Company develops other lines of business, payments of dividends from the Bank will remain the Company’s primary source of income and the primary source of funds for dividend payments to the shareholders of the Company.
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), enacted on July 21, 2010, significantly changed the bank regulatory landscape and has impacted and will continue to impact the lending, deposit, investment, trading and operating activities of insured depository institutions and their holding companies. The Dodd-Frank Act requires various federal agencies to adopt a broad range of new rules and regulations. The Dodd-Frank Act, among other things:
● | capped debit card interchange fees for institutions with $10 billion in assets or more at $0.21 plus 5 basis points times the transaction amount, a substantially lower rate than the average rate in effect prior to adoption of the Dodd-Frank Act; |
● | provided for an increase in the FDIC assessment for depository institutions with assets of $10 billion or more, increases in the minimum reserve ratio for the Deposit Insurance Fund ("DIF") from 1.15% to 1.35% and changes the basis for determining FDIC premiums from deposits to assets; |
● | permanently increased the deposit insurance coverage to $250 thousand and allowed depository institutions to pay interest on checking accounts; |
● | created a new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”) that has rulemaking authority for a wide range of consumer financial protection laws that apply to all banks and has broad authority to enforce these laws; |
● | provided for new disclosure and other requirements relating to executive compensation and corporate governance; |
● | changed standards for Federal preemption of state laws related to federally-chartered institutions and their subsidiaries; |
● | provided mortgage reform provisions regarding a customer’s ability to repay, restricting variable rate lending by requiring the ability to repay to be determined for variable rate loans by using the maximum rate that will apply during the first five years of a variable rate loan term, and making more loans subject to provisions for higher cost loans, new disclosures and certain other revisions; |
● | created a financial stability oversight council that will recommend to the FRB increasingly strict rules for capital, leverage, liquidity, risk management and other requirements as companies grow in size and complexity. |
The Dodd-Frank Act also imposes new obligations on originators of residential mortgage loans, such as the Bank. Among other things, the Dodd-Frank Act requires originators to make a reasonable and good faith determination based on documented information that a borrower has a reasonable ability to repay a particular mortgage loan over the long term. If the originator cannot meet this standard, the mortgage may be unenforceable. The Dodd-Frank Act contains an exception from this ability-to-repay rule for “Qualified Mortgages”. The CFPB has established specific underwriting criteria for a loan to qualify as a Qualified Mortgage. The criteria generally exclude loans that (1) are interest-only, (2) have excessive upfront points or fees or (3) have negative amortization features, balloon payments or terms in excess of 30 years. The underwriting criteria also impose a maximum debt to income ratio of 43%, based upon documented and verifiable information. If a loan meets these criteria and is not a “higher priced loan” as defined in FRB regulations, the CFPB rule establishes a safe harbor preventing a consumer from asserting the failure of the originator to establish the consumer’s ability to repay. However, a consumer may assert the lender’s failure to comply with the ability-to-repay rule for all residential mortgage loans other than Qualified Mortgages, and may challenge whether a loan in fact qualified as a Qualified Mortgage.
Although the majority of residential mortgages historically originated by the Bank would be considered Qualified Mortgages, the Bank has and may continue to make residential mortgage loans that would not qualify. As a result of such rules, the Bank might experience increased compliance costs, loan losses, litigation related expenses and delays in
8
taking title to real estate collateral, if these loans do not perform and borrowers challenge whether the Bank satisfied the ability-to-repay rule upon originating the loan.
The requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act and other regulatory reforms continue to be implemented. It is difficult to predict at this time what specific impact certain provisions and yet-to-be-finalized rules and regulations will have on the Company, including any regulations promulgated by the CFPB. Financial reform legislation and rules could have adverse implications on the financial industry, the competitive environment and the Company’s ability to conduct business. Management will have to apply resources to ensure compliance with all applicable provisions of regulatory reforms, including the Dodd-Frank Act and any implementing rules, which may increase the Company’s costs of operations and adversely impact its earnings.
Financial Holding Company Status
The Company has elected to become a financial holding company. Financial holding companies may engage in a broader scope of activities than a bank holding company. In addition, financial holding companies may undertake certain activities without prior FRB approval.
A financial holding company may affiliate with securities firms and insurance companies and engage in other activities that are financial in nature or incidental or complementary to activities that are financial in nature. "Financial in nature" activities include:
● | securities underwriting, dealing and market making; |
● | sponsoring, mutual funds and investment companies; |
● | insurance underwriting and insurance agency activities; |
● | merchant banking; |
● | activities that the FRB determines to be financial in nature or incidental to a financial activity or which are complementary to a financial activity and do not pose a safety and soundness risk. |
A financial holding company that desires to engage in activities that are financial in nature or incidental to a financial activity but not previously authorized by the FRB must obtain approval from the FRB before engaging in such activity. Also, a financial holding company may seek FRB approval to engage in an activity that is complementary to a financial activity, if it shows, among other things, that the activity does not pose a substantial risk to the safety and soundness of its insured depository institutions or the financial system.
A financial holding company generally may acquire a company (other than a bank holding company, bank or savings association) engaged in activities that are financial in nature or incidental to activities that are financial in nature without prior approval from the FRB. Prior FRB approval is required, however, before the financial holding company may acquire control of more than 5% of the voting shares or substantially all of the assets of a bank holding company, bank or savings association. In addition, under the FRB’s merchant banking regulations, a financial holding company is authorized to invest in companies that engage in activities that are not financial in nature, as long as the financial holding company makes its investment with the intention of limiting the duration of the investment, does not manage the company on a day-to-day basis and the company does not cross-market its products or services with any of the financial holding company’s controlled depository institutions.
If any subsidiary bank of a financial holding company ceases to be "well capitalized" or "well managed" and fails to correct its condition within the time period that the FRB specifies, the FRB has authority to order the financial holding company to divest its subsidiary banks. Alternatively, the financial holding company may elect to limit its activities and the activities of its subsidiaries to those permissible for a bank holding company that is not a financial holding company. If any subsidiary bank of a financial holding company receives a rating under the CRA of less than "satisfactory", then the financial holding company is prohibited from engaging in new activities or acquiring companies other than bank holding companies, banks or savings associations until the rating is raised to "satisfactory" or better.

Item 1A. Risk Factors:
The Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and the trading price of its securities can be materially and adversely affected by many events and conditions including the following:
Pandemic events may have a material adverse effect on operations and financial condition.
The outbreak of disease on a regional, national or global level, such as the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus, has a material adverse effect on commerce, which may, in turn impact the Company’s lines of business.
The Company’s operations are significantly affected by the general economic conditions of New Jersey, Eastern Pennsylvania and the specific local markets in which it operates. The New Jersey and Eastern Pennsylvania markets served by the Registrant have been significantly impacted by the Coronavirus pandemic and governmental actions to mitigate the pandemic, such as stay at home orders and business shutdowns. The Company’s real estate portfolio consists primarily of loans secured by properties located in New Jersey and Northampton County in Pennsylvania. A decline in the economies of these counties, which are considered to be the Company’s primary market area, could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
The coronavirus outbreak may also have an adverse effect on the Company’s customers directly or indirectly. These effects could include disruptions or restrictions in customers’ supply chains or employee productivity, closures of customers’ facilities, decreases in demand for customers’ products and services or in other economic activities. If the Company’s customers are adversely affected, its condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
The COVID-19 pandemic may also affect the stability of the Company’s deposit base, impair the ability of borrowers to repay outstanding loans, impair the value of collateral securing loans and/or result in loss of revenue. A decline in local economic conditions may have a greater effect on the Company’s earnings and capital than on the earnings and capital of larger financial institutions whose real estate loan portfolios are geographically diverse. Many of the loans in the Company’s portfolio are secured by real estate. Deterioration in the real estate markets where collateral for a mortgage loan is located could negatively affect the borrower’s ability to repay the loan and the value of the collateral securing the loan. Real estate values are affected by various other factors, including changes in general or regional economic conditions and governmental rules or policies. If the Company is required to liquidate a significant amount of collateral during a period of reduced real estate values, its financial condition and profitability could be adversely affected. Adverse changes in the regional and general economy could reduce the Company’s growth rate, impair the ability to collect loans and generally have a negative effect on financial condition and results of operations.
Including the potential effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on the Company’s loan portfolios, the ongoing and dynamic nature of the pandemic and the resultant, potentially severe and long-lasting, economic dislocations, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the Company’s business. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including the development of new variants of the virus, when the coronavirus can be controlled and abated and when and how the economy may return to pre-pandemic levels of activity. As the result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related adverse local and national economic consequences, the Company could be subject to any of the following risks, any of which could have a material, adverse effect on its business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations:
● | demand for the Company’s products and services may decline, making it difficult to grow assets and income; |
● | if the economy is unable to return to pre-pandemic levels of activity, loan delinquencies, problem assets and foreclosures may increase, resulting in increased charges and reduced income; |
● | collateral for loans, especially real estate, may decline in value, which could cause loan losses to increase; |
● | the Company’s allowance for loan losses may have to be increased if borrowers experience financial difficulties which will adversely affect its net income; |
● | the net worth and liquidity of loan guarantors may decline, impairing their ability to honor commitments to the Company; |
● | Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation premiums may increase if the agency experiences additional resolution costs. |
10
Moreover, the Company’s future success and profitability substantially depends on the management skills of its executive officers and directors, many of whom have held officer and director positions with the Company for many years. The unanticipated loss or unavailability of key employees due to the outbreak could harm the Company’s ability to operate its business or execute its business strategy. The Company may not be successful in finding and integrating suitable successors in the event of key employee loss or unavailability.
Any one or a combination of the factors identified above could negatively impact the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations and prospects.
The Company has been and may continue to be adversely affected by national financial markets and economic conditions, as well as local conditions.
The Company’s business and results of operations are affected by the financial markets and general economic conditions in the United States, including factors such as the level and volatility of interest rates, inflation, home prices, unemployment and under-employment levels, bankruptcies, household income, consumer spending, investor confidence and the strength of the U.S. economy. The deterioration of any of these conditions can adversely affect the Company’s securities and loan portfolios, level of charge-offs and provision for credit losses, capital levels, liquidity and results of operations.
In addition, the Company is affected by the economic conditions within its New Jersey and Pennsylvania trade areas. Unlike larger banks that are more geographically diversified, the Company provides banking and financial services primarily to customers in the New Jersey market and one county in Pennsylvania in which it has branches, so any decline in the economy of New Jersey or eastern Pennsylvania could have an adverse impact.
The Company’s loans, the ability of borrowers to repay these loans and the value of collateral securing these loans are impacted by economic conditions. The Company’s financial results, the credit quality of its existing loan portfolio and the ability to generate new loans with acceptable yield and credit characteristics may be adversely affected by changes in prevailing economic conditions, including declines in real estate values, changes in interest rates, adverse employment conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of the federal government. The Company cannot assure that positive trends or developments discussed in this annual report will continue or that negative trends or developments will not have a significant adverse effect on itself.
A significant portion of the Company’s loan portfolio is secured by real estate, and events that negatively impact the real estate market could hurt its business.
A significant portion of the Company’s loan portfolio is secured by real estate. As of December 31, 2022, approximately 96 percent of its loans had real estate as a primary or secondary component of collateral. The real estate collateral in each case provides an alternate source of repayment in the event of default by the borrower and may deteriorate in value during the time the credit is extended. Weakness in the real estate market in the Company’s primary market areas could result in an increase in the number of borrowers who default on their loans and a reduction in the value of the collateral securing their loans, which in turn could have an adverse effect on the Company’s profitability and asset quality. Any future declines in home prices in the New Jersey and Pennsylvania markets the Company serves also may result in increases in delinquencies and losses in its loan portfolios. Stress in the real estate market, combined with any weakness in economic conditions could drive losses beyond that which is provided for in the Company’s allowance for loan losses. In that event, the Company’s earnings could be adversely affected.
There is a risk that the SBA will not honor their guarantee.
The Company has historically been a participant in various SBA lending programs which guarantee up to 90% of the principal on the underlying loan. There is a risk that the SBA will not honor its guarantee if a loan is not underwritten and administered to SBA guidelines. The Company follows the underwriting guidelines of the SBA; however its ability to manage this will depend on the ability to continue to attract, hire and retain skilled employees who have knowledge of the SBA program.
11
There is a risk that the Company may not be repaid in a timely manner, or at all, for loans it makes.
The risk of nonpayment (or deferred or delayed payment) of loans is inherent in banking. Such nonpayment, or delayed or deferred payment of loans to the Company, if they occur, may have a material adverse effect on its earnings and overall financial condition. Additionally, in compliance with applicable banking laws and regulations, the Company maintains an allowance for loan losses created through charges against earnings. As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s allowance for loan losses was $25.2 million, or 1.20 percent of its total loan portfolio and 277.95 percent of its nonperforming loans. The Company’s marketing focus on small to medium size businesses may result in the assumption by the Company of certain lending risks that are different from or greater than those which would apply to loans made to larger companies. The Company seeks to minimize its credit risk exposure through credit controls, which include evaluation of potential borrowers’ available collateral, liquidity and cash flow. However, there can be no assurance that such procedures will actually reduce loan losses.
The Company’s allowance for loan losses may not be adequate to cover actual losses.
Like all financial institutions, the Company maintains an allowance for loan losses to provide for loan defaults and nonperformance. Its allowance for loan losses may not be adequate to cover actual losses and future provisions for loan losses could materially and adversely affect the results of operations. Risks within the loan portfolio are analyzed on a continuous basis by management and, periodically, by an independent loan review function and by the Audit Committee. A risk system, consisting of multiple-grading categories, is utilized as an analytical tool to assess risk and the appropriate level of loss reserves. Along with the risk system, management further evaluates risk characteristics of the loan portfolio under current economic conditions and considers such factors as the financial condition of the borrowers, past and expected loan loss experience and other factors management feels deserve recognition in establishing an adequate reserve. This risk assessment process is performed at least quarterly and, as adjustments become necessary, they are realized in the periods in which they become known. The amount of future losses is susceptible to changes in economic, operating and other conditions, including changes in interest rates that may be beyond the Company’s control, and these losses may exceed current estimates. State and federal regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, review the Company’s loans and allowance for loan losses and may require an increase in its allowance for loan losses. Although the Company believes that its allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover probable and reasonably estimated losses, it cannot be assured that the Company will not further increase the allowance for loan losses or that its regulators will not require an increase to this allowance. Either of these occurrences could adversely affect the Company’s earnings.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-13. ASU 2016-13 significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. ASU 2016-13 will replace the incurred loss model under existing guidance with a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model for instruments measured at amortized cost, and require entities to record allowances for available for sale debt securities rather than reduce the carrying amount, as they do today under the other-than-temporary impairment model. ASU 2016-13 also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. While ASU 2016-13 does not require any particular method for determining the CECL allowance, it does specify the allowance should be based on relevant information about past events, including historical loss experience, current portfolio and market conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts for the duration of each respective loan. Because the Company’s methodology for determining CECL allowances may differ from the methodologies employed by other companies, its CECL allowances may not be comparable with the CECL allowances reported by other companies. In addition, other than a few narrow exceptions, ASU 2016-13 requires that all financial instruments subject to the CECL model have some amount of reserve to reflect the GAAP principal underlying the CECL model that all loans, debt securities and similar assets have some inherent risk of loss, regardless of credit quality, subordinate capital or other mitigating factors. Accordingly, the Company expects that the adoption of the CECL model will materially affect how it determines the allowance for loan losses and could require the Company to increase its allowance and recognize provisions for loan losses earlier in the lending cycle. Moreover, the CECL model may create more volatility in the level of the Company’s allowance for loan losses. If the Company is required to materially increase its level of allowance for loan losses for any reason, such increase could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022.
12
The Company is subject to interest rate risk and variations in interest rates may negatively affect its financial performance.
Net interest income, the difference between interest earned on interest-earning assets and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, represents a significant portion of the Company’s earnings. Both increases and decreases in the interest rate environment may reduce the Company’s profits. Interest rates are subject to factors which are beyond the Company’s control, including general economic conditions, competition and policies of various governmental and regulatory agencies, such as the FRB. Changes in monetary policy, including changes in interest rates, could influence not only the interest the Company receives on loans and investment securities and the amount of interest it pays on deposits and borrowings, but such changes could also affect (i) the ability to originate loans and obtain deposits, (ii) the fair value of financial assets and liabilities, including the held to maturity and available for sale securities portfolios and (iii) the average duration of interest-earning assets. This also includes the risk that interest-earning assets may be more responsive to changes in interest rates than interest-bearing liabilities, or vice versa (repricing risk), the risk that the individual interest rates or rate indexes underlying various interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities may not change in the same degree over a given time period (basis risk) and the risk of changing interest rate relationships across the spectrum of interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability maturities (yield curve risk).
The banking business is subject to significant government regulations.
The Company is subject to extensive governmental supervision, regulation and control. These laws and regulations are subject to change and may require substantial modifications to the Company’s operations or may cause it to incur substantial additional compliance costs. These laws and regulations are designed to protect depositors and the public, but not the Company’s shareholders. In addition, future legislation and government policy could adversely affect the commercial banking industry and the Company’s operations. Such governing laws can be anticipated to continue to be the subject of future modification. The Company’s management cannot predict what effect any such future modifications will have on the Company’s operations. In addition, the primary focus of federal and state banking regulation is the protection of depositors and not the shareholders of the regulated institutions.
For example, the Dodd-Frank Act has resulted in substantial new compliance costs and may restrict certain sources of revenue. The Dodd-Frank Act was signed into law on July 21, 2011. Generally, an Act is effective the day after it is signed into law, but different effective dates apply to specific sections of this law, many of which will not become effective until various Federal regulatory agencies have promulgated rules implementing the statutory provisions. Uncertainty remains as to the ultimate impact of the Dodd-Frank Act, which could have a material adverse impact either on the financial services industry as a whole, or on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. For a more detailed discussion of the Dodd-Frank Act, see “Item 1-Business – Supervision and Regulation.”
The provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act, as well as any other aspects of current or proposed regulatory or legislative changes to laws applicable to the financial industry, may impact the profitability of business activities and may change certain business practices, including the ability to offer new products, obtain financing, attract deposits, make loans and achieve satisfactory interest spreads, and could expose the Company to additional costs, including increased compliance costs. These changes also may require the Company to invest significant management attention and resources to make any necessary changes to operations in order to comply, and could therefore also materially and adversely affect business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company is subject to changes in accounting policies or accounting standards.
Understanding the Company’s accounting policies is fundamental to understanding its financial results. Some of these policies require the use of estimates and assumptions that may affect the value of assets or liabilities and financial results. The Company has identified its accounting policies regarding the allowance for loan losses, security valuations and other-than-temporary-impairments, goodwill and income taxes to be critical because they require management to make difficult, subjective and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. Under each of these policies, it is possible that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions, using different assumptions, or as new information becomes available.
13
From time to time, the FASB and the SEC change their guidance governing the form and content of the Company’s external financial statements. In addition, accounting standard setters and those who interpret U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), such as the FASB, SEC, banking regulators and the Company’s outside auditors, may change or even reverse their previous interpretations or positions on how these standards should be applied. Such changes are expected to continue. Changes in U.S. GAAP and changes in current interpretations are beyond the Company’s control, can be hard to predict and could materially impact how it reports financial results and condition. In certain cases, the Company could be required to apply a new or revised guidance retroactively or apply existing guidance differently, which may result in restating prior period financial statements for material amounts. Additionally, significant changes to U.S. GAAP may require costly technology changes, additional training and personnel and other expenses that would negatively impact results of operations.
Declines in value may adversely impact the investment portfolio.
As of December 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $95.4 million, $35.8 million, and $9.8 million in debt securities available for sale, debt securities held to maturity and equity investment securities, respectively. The Company may be required to record impairment charges in earnings related to credit losses on its investment securities if they suffer a decline in value that is considered other-than-temporary. Additionally, (i) if the Company intends to sell a security or (ii) it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis, the Company will be required to recognize an other-than-temporary impairment charge in the statement of income equal to the full amount of the decline in fair value below amortized cost. Factors, including lack of liquidity, absence of reliable pricing information, adverse actions by regulators or unanticipated changes in the competitive environment could have a negative effect on the investment portfolio and may result in other-than-temporary impairment on investment securities in future periods.
Liquidity risk.
Liquidity risk is the potential that the Company will be unable to meet its obligations as they come due because of an inability to liquidate assets or obtain adequate funding on a timely basis, at a reasonable cost and within acceptable risk tolerances.
Liquidity is required to fund various obligations, including credit commitments to borrowers, mortgage and other loan originations, withdrawals by depositors, repayment of borrowings, dividends to shareholders, operating expenses and capital expenditures.
Liquidity is derived primarily from deposit growth and retention; principal and interest payments on loans; principal and interest payments on investment securities; sale, maturity and prepayment of investment securities; net cash provided from operations and access to other funding sources. Customer account balances can decrease when customers perceive alternative investments, such as fixed income securities or money market funds, as providing a better risk/return trade off. If customers move money out of bank deposits and into other investments, the Company could lose a low-cost source of funds, increasing its funding costs and reducing the Company’s net interest income and net income.
The Company’s access to funding sources in amounts adequate to finance its activities could be impaired by factors that affect the Company specifically or the financial services industry in general. Factors that could detrimentally impact access to liquidity sources include a decrease in the level of business activity due to persistent weakness, or downturn, in the economy or adverse regulatory action against the Company. The Company’s ability to borrow could also be impaired by factors that are not necessarily specific to it, such as a severe disruption of the financial markets or negative views and expectations about the prospects for the financial services industry as a whole.
The Company is in competition with many other banks, including larger commercial banks which have greater resources, as well as “fintech” companies for loan and deposit customers.
The banking industry within the State of New Jersey is highly competitive. The Company’s principal market area is also served by branch offices of large commercial banks and thrift institutions. In addition, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Modernization Act permits other financial entities, such as insurance companies and securities firms, to
14
acquire or form financial institutions, thereby further increasing competition. In addition, financial technology companies, either directly or in partnership with other insured depository institutions, compete for loan and deposit customers. Similarly, larger legacy non-financial companies, such as Apple, Alphabet and Amazon, are further increasing competition to compete for loans, deposits and payments. A number of the Company’s competitors have substantially greater resources than it does to expend upon advertising and marketing, and their substantially greater capitalization enables them to make much larger loans. The Company’s success depends a great deal upon its judgment that large and mid-size financial institutions do not adequately serve small businesses in its principal market area and upon the Company’s ability to compete favorably for such customers. In addition to competition from larger institutions, the Company also faces competition for individuals and small businesses from small community banks seeking to compete as “hometown” institutions. Most of these smaller institutions have focused their marketing efforts on the smaller end of the small business market the Company serves.
The Company has also been active in competing for New Jersey governmental and municipal deposits. At December 31, 2022, the Company held approximately $296.5 million in governmental and municipal deposits. The governor of New Jersey has proposed that the state form and own a bank in which governmental and municipal entities would deposit their excess funds, with the state owned bank then financing small businesses and municipal projects in New Jersey. Although this proposal is in the very early stages and no legislation has been introduced in the state legislature, should this proposal be adopted and a state owned bank formed, it could impede the Company’s ability to attract and retain governmental and municipal deposits, thereby impairing the Company’s liquidity.
Future offerings of common stock may adversely affect the market price of the Company’s stock.
In the future, if the Company’s or the Bank’s capital ratios fall below the prevailing regulatory required minimums, the Company or the Bank could be forced to raise additional capital by making additional offerings of common stock or preferred stock. Additional equity offerings may dilute the holdings of existing shareholders or reduce the market price of common stock, or both.
The Company cannot predict how changes in technology will impact its business.
The financial services market, including banking services, is increasingly affected by advances in technology, including developments in:
● | telecommunications; |
● | data processing; |
● | artificial intelligence; |
● | automation; |
● | Internet-based banking; |
● | Tele-banking; |
● | debit cards/smart cards |
The Company’s ability to compete successfully in the future will depend on whether it can anticipate and respond to technological changes. To develop these and other new technologies, the Company will likely have to make additional capital investments. Although the Company continually invests in new technology, it cannot assure that it will have sufficient resources or access to the necessary proprietary technology to remain competitive in the future.
The Company’s information systems may experience an interruption or breach in security.
The Company relies heavily on communications and information systems to conduct its business. Any failure, interruption or breach in security of these systems could result in failures or disruptions in the Company’s customer-relationship management, general ledger, deposit, loan and other systems.
The Company is further exposed to the risk that its external vendors may be unable to fulfill their contractual obligations (or will be subject to the same risk of fraud or operational errors by their respective employees) and to the risk that the
15
Company’s (or its vendors’) business continuity and data security systems prove to be inadequate. The Company maintains a system of comprehensive policies and a control framework designed to monitor vendor risks including, among other things, (i) changes in the vendor’s organizational structure or internal controls, (ii) changes in the vendor’s financial condition, (iii) changes in the vendor’s support for existing products and services and (iv) changes in the vendor’s strategic focus. In addition, the Company maintains cyber liability insurance to mitigate against certain losses it may incur.
While the Company has policies and procedures designed to prevent or limit the effect of the failure, interruption or security breach of its information systems, there can be no assurance that any such failures, interruptions or security breaches will not occur; or, if they do occur, that they will be adequately addressed. Further cyber risk exposure will likely remain elevated in the future as a result of the Company’s expansion of internet and mobile banking tools and new product roll out. The occurrence of any failures, interruptions or security breaches of the Company’s information systems could damage the Company’s reputation, result in a loss of customer business, subject the Company to additional regulatory scrutiny or expose the Company to civil litigation and possible financial liability; any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
The Company’s business strategy could be adversely affected if it is not able to attract and retain skilled employees and manage expenses.
The Company expects to continue to experience growth in the scope of its operations and, correspondingly, in the number of its employees and customers. The Company may not be able to successfully manage its business as a result of the strain on management and operations that may result from this growth. The Company’s ability to manage this growth will depend upon its ability to continue to attract, hire and retain skilled employees. The Company’s success will also depend on the ability of its officers and key employees to continue to implement and improve operational and other systems, to manage multiple, concurrent customer relationships and to hire, train and manage employees. Further, given the rise of “remote” and “hybrid” working models, the Company is in competition with more companies and industries for employee retention. The Company’s inability to retain key employees could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations.
Hurricanes, flooding or other adverse weather events could negatively affect local economies or disrupt operations, which would have an adverse effect on the Company’s business or results of operations.
Hurricanes, flooding and other weather events can disrupt the Company’s operations, result in damage to its properties and negatively affect the local economies in which it operates. In addition, these weather events may result in a decline in value or destruction of properties securing loans and an increase in delinquencies, foreclosures and loan losses.
The Company may be adversely affected by changes in U.S. federal tax laws and state and local tax laws.
The Company’s business may be adversely affected by changes in tax laws if there are any increases in its federal income tax rates. Further, the Company’s business may be adversely affected by changes in tax laws if there are any increases in its state and local tax rates, specifically in the jurisdictions of New Jersey, New York, New York City, Pennsylvania and Delaware.
Claims and litigation could result in significant expenses, losses and damage to the Company’s reputation
From time to time, as a part of the Company’s normal course of business, customers, bankruptcy trustees, former customers, contractual counterparties, third parties and current and former employees may make claims and take legal action against the Company based on the actions or inactions of the Company. If such claims and legal actions are undertaken and are not resolved in a manner favorable to the Company, they may result in financial liability and/or adversely affect the market perception of the Company. Any financial liability could have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Any reputational damages could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.
16
Failure to successfully implement the Company’s growth strategies could cause it to incur substantial costs, which may not be recouped and adversely affect its future profitability.
From time to time, the Company may implement new lines of business, open new branches or offer new products and services. There are substantial risks and uncertainties associated with these efforts. The Company may invest significant time and resources, which may not be fully recouped if profitability targets are not proven feasible. External factors such as compliance with regulations, competitive alternatives and shifting customer preferences may also impact successful implementation. Failure to successfully manage these risks may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.
Net gains on sales of mortgage and/or SBA loans are a significant component of the Company’s non-interest income and could fluctuate in future periods.
Net gains on sales of mortgage and SBA loans represented a notable portion of the Company’s non-interest income for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company’s ability to sell a portion of its mortgage or SBA loan productions in the secondary market is dependent upon, amongst other factors, the levels of market interest rates, consumer demand for marketable loans, the Company’s sales and pricing strategies, and the economy. A change in one or more of these, or other factors could significantly impact the Company’s ability to sell mortgage loans in the future and adversely impact the level of our non-interest income.
The Company may not be able to detect money laundering and other illegal or improper activities fully, or on a timely basis, which could expose the company to additional liability and could have a material adverse effect.
The Company is required to comply with anti-money laundering, anti-terrorism and other laws and regulations in the United States. These laws and regulations require the Company to adopt and enforce “know-your-customer” policies and procedures and to report suspicious and larger transactions to applicable regulatory authorities. These laws and regulations have become increasingly complex and detailed, require improved systems and sophisticated monitoring and compliance personnel, and have become the subject of enhanced government supervision.
Although the Company has policies and procedures aimed at detecting and preventing the use of its banking network for money laundering and related activities, those policies and procedures may not eliminate instances in which the Company may be used by customers to engage in illegal or improper activities. To the extent that the Company fails to fully comply with the applicable laws and regulations, banking agencies may have the authority to impose fines and other penalties and sanctions on the Company.
The Company’s controls and procedures may fail or be circumvented, which may result in a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations and financial condition.
The Company’s management periodically reviews and updates its internal control, policies, and procedures. Any system of controls is in part based on certain assumptions and can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurances that the objectives of the system are met. Any failure or circumvention of the controls and procedures or failure to comply with regulations related to controls and procedures could have a material adverse effect on the Company and its results of operations and financial condition.
Reforms to and uncertainty regarding LIBOR may adversely affect the Company’s business.
In 2017, a committee of private-market derivative participants and their regulators convened by the Federal Reserve, the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, or “ARRC”, was created to identify an alternative reference interest rate to replace LIBOR. The ARRC announced the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or “SOFR”, a broad measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight collateralized by Treasury securities, as its preferred alternative to LIBOR. The Chief Executive of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced its intention to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR to the administrator of LIBOR after 2021, although certain LIBOR rates will continue to be published until 2023. Subsequently, the Federal Reserve Bank announced final plans for the production of SOFR, which resulted in the commencement of its published rates by the
17
Federal Reserve Bank of New York on April 2, 2018. The United States bank regulatory agencies have required financial institutions in the United States to cease issuing new LIBOR contracts effective December 31, 2021. The uncertainty as to the nature and effect of the phase out of LIBOR may adversely affect the value of and return on the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are based on or are linked to LIBOR, the Company’s results of operations or financial condition. In addition, these reforms may also require extensive changes to the Company’s systems and processes.
LIBOR was historically used as a reference rate for many of the Company’s transactions. Risks related to transitioning instruments to a new reference rate include impacts on the yield on loans or securities held by the Company, amounts paid on securities the Company has issued or amounts received and paid on derivative instruments it has entered into. The value of loans, securities or derivative instruments tied to LIBOR and the trading market for LIBOR-based securities could also be impacted upon its discontinuance.
While the Company expects LIBOR will continue to be available in substantially its current form until 2023, it is possible that LIBOR quotes will become unavailable prior to that point. This could result, for example, if sufficient banks decline to make submissions to the LIBOR administrator. In that case, the risks associated with the transition to an alternative reference rate will be accelerated and magnified. These risks may also be increased due to the shorter time for preparing for the transition.
Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments: None
Item 2. Properties:
The Company presently conducts its business through its main office located at 64 Old Highway 22, Clinton, New Jersey and its nineteen branch offices. The Company is currently leasing additional back office space in Clinton, New Jersey, in a building adjacent to its main office. The Company’s facilities are adequate to meet its needs.

Overview
Unity Bancorp, Inc. (the “Parent Company”) is a bank holding company incorporated in New Jersey and is registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. Its wholly-owned subsidiary, Unity Bank (the “Bank” or, when consolidated with the Parent Company, the “Company”) is chartered by the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance and commenced operations on September 13, 1991. The Bank provides a full range of commercial and retail banking services through the Internet and its nineteen branch offices located in Bergen, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Ocean, Somerset, Union and Warren counties in New Jersey and Northampton County in Pennsylvania. These services include the acceptance of demand, savings and time deposits and the extension of consumer, real estate, Small Business Administration ("SBA") and other commercial credits. The Bank has multiple subsidiaries used to hold part of its investment and loan portfolios.
Results of Operations
Net income totaled $38.5 million, or $3.59 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to $36.1 million, or $3.43 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Highlights for the year include:
● | Net income before provision for income taxes increased 6.8 percent to $51.4 million from $48.1 million in the prior year. |
● | Net interest income increased $13.1 million, or 17.0 percent, to $90.1 million from $77.0 million in the prior year, primarily due to additional interest income resulting from commercial, residential mortgage and residential construction loan growth. |
● | Net interest margin increased 24 basis points to 4.40 percent compared to 4.16 percent in the prior year. |
● | Noninterest income was $8.0 million, a 33.3 percent decrease compared to $12.1 million in the prior year, primarily due to a decrease in the volume of residential mortgage loan sales and net unrealized securities losses in the current year. |
● | Noninterest expense totaled $42.6 million, an increase of $1.8 million when compared to $40.8 million in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to increased compensation and benefits expenses. |
● | The effective tax rate increased to 25.2 percent compared to 25.0 percent in the prior year. |
● | Total gross loans increased $457.1 million, or 27.7 percent from the prior year. The increase was driven by a 47.8 percent increase in residential mortgage loans, a 35.6 percent increase in residential construction loans and a 27.5 percent increase in commercial loans. SBA PPP loans decreased 87.3 percent or $40.5 million due to loans being forgiven and paid off. |
● | Total deposits increased $28.6 million, or 1.6 percent from the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by interest-bearing demand deposits and time deposits, partially offset by decreases in noninterest-bearing demand deposits and savings. |
● | Total securities increased $61.6 million, or 77.7 percent from the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by purchases of debt securities classified as available for sale and held to maturity in the current year. |
● | Total borrowed funds increased $343 million, or 857.5 percent from the prior year. The increase was due to loan demand. |

COVID-19
The full impact of the Coronavirus Disease (“COVID-19”) pandemic remains unknown and continues to evolve. The outbreak has had a significant adverse impact on certain industries the Company serves, including retail, accommodations, restaurants and food services. It is unknown how long the adverse conditions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic will last and what the complete financial effect will be to the Bank. It is reasonably possible that estimates made in the financial statements could be materially impacted in the near term as a result of these conditions. The Company continues to monitor the impact closely, including its impact on employees, customers, communities and results of operations and the impact of other government or Federal Reserve actions.
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act provided funding for the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and established rules for qualifying borrowers to receive loan forgiveness by the SBA under this program. The Company approved 1,224 applications and provided funding of approximately $143.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had no PPP loans originated under the CARES Act remaining on its balance sheet.
The Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small businesses, Nonprofits and Venues (“Economic Aid”) Act provided additional assistance to the hardest-hit small businesses, nonprofits, and venues that were struggling to recover from the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic. The Company approved 955 applications and provided funding of approximately $101.0 million under the Economic Aid Act. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $5.9 million of PPP loans originated under the Economic Aid Act in its portfolio.
Additionally, in accordance with provisions set forth by the CARES Act and regulatory guidance, the Company provided financial assistance through loan payment deferrals and waived fees. The Company has no outstanding loans remaining that would qualify for the payment deferral period as set forth by the CARES Act and regulatory guidance.
Net Interest Income
The primary source of the Company’s operating income is net interest income, which is the difference between interest and dividends earned on interest-earning assets and fees earned on loans, versus interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Interest-earning assets include loans to individuals and businesses, investment securities and interest-earning deposits. Interest-bearing liabilities include interest-bearing demand, savings and time deposits, FHLB advances and other borrowings. Net interest income is determined by the difference between the yields earned on interest-earning assets and the rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities (“net interest spread”) and the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The Company’s net interest spread is affected by regulatory, economic and
22
competitive factors that influence interest rates, loan demand, deposit demand and general levels of nonperforming assets.
2022 compared to 2021
During 2022, tax-equivalent net interest income amounted to $90.1 million, an increase of $13.1 million, or 17.0 percent, when compared to the same period in 2021. The net interest margin increased 24 basis points to 4.40 percent for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to 4.16 percent for the same period in 2021. The net interest spread was 4.15 percent for 2022, a 20 basis point increase compared to 3.95 for the same period in 2021.
During 2022, tax-equivalent interest income was $100.7 million, an increase of $16.0 million, or 18.8 percent, when compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase was mainly driven by increases in the balance of average loans, the yield on loans, the balance of average securities and the yield on securities.
● | Of the $16.0 million increase in interest income on a tax-equivalent basis, $9.2 million was due to the increased volume of interest-earning assets and $6.8 million was due to increased yields on average interest-earning assets. |
● | The average volume of interest-earning assets increased $196.9 million to $2.0 billion for 2022 compared to $1.9 billion for 2021. This was primarily due to a $165.3 million increase in average loans, with growth in all portfolios except SBA PPP loans. The increase was complemented by a $77.3 million increase in investment securities, partially offset by a $47.9 million decrease in interest-bearing deposits. |
● | The yield on total interest-earning assets increased 34 basis points to 4.92 percent for the year ended December 31, 2022 when compared to 2021. The yield on the loan portfolio increased 12 basis points to 5.13 percent. |
Total interest expense was $10.6 million in 2022, an increase of $2.9 million or 37.3 percent compared to 2021. This increase was primarily driven by the increased rates and volume of savings deposits and increased volume of borrowed funds and subordinated debentures:
● | Of the $2.9 million increase in interest expense, $1.8 million was due to increased rates on interest-bearing liabilities while $1.1 million was due to the increased volume of average interest-bearing liabilities. |
● | The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 14 basis points to 0.77 percent in 2022 when compared to 2021. The cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 1 basis point in 2022. The cost of borrowed funds and subordinated debentures increased 129 basis points in 2022. |
● | Interest-bearing liabilities averaged $1.4 billion in 2022, an increase of $141.9 million or 11.5 percent, compared to 2021. The increase in interest-bearing liabilities was primarily due to an increase in savings, interest-bearing demand deposits and borrowed funds, partially offset by a decrease in time deposits. |
2021 compared to 2020
During 2021, tax-equivalent net interest income amounted to $77.0 million, an increase of $12.6 million or 19.6 percent when compared to the same period in 2020. The net interest margin increased 31 basis points to 4.16 percent for the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to 3.85 percent for the same period in 2020. The net interest spread was 3.95 percent for 2021, a 47 basis point increase compared to the same period in 2020.
During 2021, tax-equivalent interest income was $84.8 million, an increase of $5.9 million or 7.4 percent when compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase was mainly driven by the increase in the balance of average loans and the increase in the yield on loans, partially offset by a decrease in the balance of average securities and the decrease in the yield on securities.
● | Of the $5.9 million increase in interest income on a tax-equivalent basis, $6.1 million was due to the increased volume of earning assets, partially offset by a $259 thousand decrease in yields on average interest-earning assets. |
23
● | The average volume of interest-earning assets increased $177.1 million to $1.9 billion for 2021 compared to $1.7 billion for 2020. This was primarily due to a $114.6 million increase in average loans, primarily commercial, SBA PPP and residential construction loans and a $74.8 million increase in federal funds sold and interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by a $10.4 million decrease in investment securities. |
● | The yield on total interest-earning assets decreased 13 basis points to 4.58 percent for the year ended December 31, 2021 when compared to 2020. The yield on the loan portfolio increased 5 basis points to 5.01 percent. |
Total interest expense was $7.7 million in 2021, a decrease of $6.7 million or 46.5 percent compared to 2020. This decrease was driven primarily by the decreased rates on interest-bearing deposits:
● | Of the $6.7 million decrease in interest expense, $5.6 million was due to decreased rates on interest-bearing liabilities while $1.1 million was due to the decreased volume of average interest-bearing liabilities. |
● | The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 60 basis points to 0.63 percent in 2021 when compared to 2020. The cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased 61 basis points in 2021. |
● | Interest-bearing liabilities averaged $1.2 billion in 2021, an increase of $52.7 million or 4.5 percent, compared to 2020. The increase in interest-bearing liabilities was primarily due to an increase in savings and interest-bearing demand deposits offset by decreases in time deposits and borrowed funds. |

Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses totaled $4.2 million for 2022, $0.2 million in 2021 and $7.0 million in 2020. During 2020 the provision for loan losses was elevated due to uncertainty and the risk of loan defaults related to COVID-19. The provision for loan losses increased $4.0 million for the year ended 2022 primarily due to the sizeable increase in total loans, as well as management's view of current economic conditions.
Each period’s loan loss provision is the result of management’s analysis of the loan portfolio and reflects changes in the size and composition of the portfolio, the level of net charge-offs, delinquencies, current economic conditions and other internal and external factors impacting the risk within the loan portfolio. Additional information may be found under the captions “Financial Condition - Asset Quality” and “Financial Condition - Allowance for Loan Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Loan Commitments.” The current provision is considered appropriate under management’s assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.

Noninterest income was $8.0 million for 2022, a $4.0 million decrease compared to $12.1 million for 2021. This decrease was primarily due to decreased realized gains on sales of mortgages and net unrealized securities losses. The decreased realized gains on sales of mortgages was primarily due to an industry-wide trend of decreased volume in conforming residential loan originations as interest rates rose in 2022.
Noninterest income was $12.1 million for 2021, a $0.9 million decrease compared to $12.9 million for 2020. This decrease was primarily due to decreased realized gains on sales of mortgages and SBA loans held for sale.

Total noninterest expense | $ | 42,573 | $ | 40,782 | $ | 39,262 |
Noninterest expense totaled $42.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, an increase of $1.8 million when compared to $40.8 million in 2021. The majority of this increase is primarily attributable to increased compensation and benefits, reflecting ordinary course increases, as well as increased competition for employees.
Noninterest expense totaled $40.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, an increase of $1.5 million when compared to $39.3 million in 2020. The majority of this increase is primarily attributable to increased salary expenses and a one-time deferred compensation adjustment.
28
Income Tax Expense
For 2022, the Company reported income tax expense of $13.0 million for an effective tax rate of 25.2%, compared to an income tax expense of $12.0 million and an effective tax rate of 25.0% in 2021 and an income tax expense of $7.5 million and an effective tax rate of 24.0% in 2020.
For additional information on income taxes, see Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Financial Condition
Total assets increased $411.2 million or 20.2 percent, to $2.4 billion at December 31, 2022, when compared to year end 2021. This increase was primarily due to increases of $457.1 million in gross loans, mostly due to commercial, residential mortgage and residential construction loan growth, partially offset by SBA PPP loans forgiven and paid off. Total assets also included an increase of $61.6 million in total securities, offset a decrease of $130.0 million in cash and cash equivalents.
Total deposits increased $28.6 million, due to increases of $133.9 million in time deposits and $32.1 million in interest-bearing demand deposits, offset by a decrease of $102.3 million in savings deposits and $35.0 million in noninterest-bearing demand deposits. Borrowed funds increased $343.0 million to $383.0 million at December 31, 2022.
Total shareholders’ equity increased $33.5 million over year end 2021, due to earnings and an increase in common stock, offset by dividends paid and net accumulated other comprehensive losses.
These fluctuations are discussed in further detail in the sections that follow.
Securities
The Company’s securities portfolio consists of available for sale (“AFS”) debt securities, held to maturity (“HTM”) debt securities and equity investments. Management determines the appropriate security classification of AFS and HTM at the time of purchase. The investment securities portfolio is maintained for asset-liability management purposes, as well as for liquidity and earnings purposes.
The following table provides the major components of AFS debt securities, HTM debt securities and equity investments at their carrying value as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

AFS debt securities are investments carried at fair value that may be sold in response to changing market and interest rate conditions or for other business purposes. Activity in this portfolio is undertaken primarily to manage liquidity and
29
interest rate risk, to take advantage of market conditions that create economically attractive returns and as an additional source of earnings. AFS debt securities consist primarily of obligations of U.S. government sponsored entities, state and political subdivisions, mortgage-backed securities and corporate and other securities.
AFS debt securities totaled $95.4 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $38.9 million or 68.9 percent, compared to $56.5 million at December 31, 2021. This net increase was the result of:
● | Purchase of $49.3 million, |
● | $4.5 million in principal payments, maturities and called bonds, |
● | $5.8 million of depreciation in the market value of the portfolio. At December 31, 2022, the portfolio had a net unrealized loss of $5.8 million compared to a net unrealized gain of $38 thousand at December 31, 2021. These net unrealized losses and gains are reflected net of tax in shareholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income, and |
● | $0.1 million in net amortization. |
The weighted average life of AFS debt securities, adjusted for prepayments, amounted to 6.4 years and 6.9 years at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective duration of AFS debt securities amounted to 1.9 and 3.1 at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
HTM securities, which are carried at amortized cost, are investments for which there is the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. The portfolio is comprised of obligations of the U.S. Government and its agencies, obligations of state and political subdivisions and mortgage-backed securities.
HTM debt securities totaled $35.8 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $21.5 million, or 150.5 percent, compared to $14.3 million at December 31, 2021. The increase was due to:
● | Purchases of $26.7 million, |
● | $5.3 million in principal payments, and |
● | $0.1 million of net accretion. |
The weighted average life of HTM securities, adjusted for prepayments, amounted to 18.0 years and 14.0 years at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, the fair value of HTM securities was $28.6 million, compared to $14.2 million at December 31, 2021. The effective duration of HTM securities amounted to 10.5 and 5.6 at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Equity securities are investments carried at fair value that may be sold in response to changing market and interest rate conditions or for other business purposes. Activity in this portfolio is undertaken primarily to manage liquidity and interest rate risk, to take advantage of market conditions that create economically attractive returns and as an additional source of earnings. Equity securities consist of Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA") investments and the equity holdings of financial institutions.
Equity securities totaled $9.8 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $1.2 million, or 14.3 percent, compared to $8.6 million at December 31, 2021. This net increase was the result of:
● | The purchase of $2.5 million, including $1.0 million in additional CRA investments, and |
● | $1.3 million decrease in market value adjustments throughout the year. |

For additional information on securities, see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Loans
The loan portfolio, which represents the Company’s largest asset group, is a significant source of both interest and fee income. The portfolio consists of SBA, commercial, residential mortgage, consumer and residential construction loans. Each of these segments is subject to differing levels of credit and interest rate risk.
31
Total loans were $2.1 billion at December 31, 2022, an increase of $457.1 million or 27.7 percent when compared to year end 2021. Commercial, residential mortgage, residential construction and SBA loans increased $255.8 million, $195.7 million, $42.9 million and $2.9 million, respectively, partially offset by a decrease of $40.5 million in SBA PPP loans, reflecting forgiveness and payoff of these loans.
The following table sets forth the classification of loans by major category, including unearned fees, deferred costs and excluding the allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Average loans increased $165.3 million or 10.0 percent from $1.7 billion in 2021, to $1.8 billion in 2022. The increase in average loans was due to increases in average commercial, residential mortgage, residential construction, SBA and consumer loans. The yield on the overall loan portfolio increased 12 basis points to 5.13 percent for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to 5.01 percent for the prior year.
SBA 7(a) loans, on which the SBA historically has provided guarantees of up to 90 percent of the principal balance, are considered a higher risk loan product for the Company than its other loan products. These loans are made to small businesses for the purposes of providing working capital and for financing the purchase of equipment, inventory or commercial real estate. Generally, an SBA 7(a) loan has a deficiency in its credit profile that would not allow the borrower to qualify for a traditional commercial loan, which is why the SBA provides the guarantee. The deficiency may be a higher loan to value (“LTV”) ratio, lower debt service coverage (“DSC”) ratio or weak personal financial guarantees. In addition, many SBA 7(a) loans are for start up businesses where there is no historical financial information. Finally, many SBA borrowers do not have an ongoing and continuous banking relationship with the Bank, and work with the Bank on a single transaction. The guaranteed portion of the Company’s SBA loans may be sold in the secondary market.
SBA 7(a) loans held for sale, carried at the lower of cost or market, amounted to $27.9 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $555.0 thousand from $27.4 million at December 31, 2021. SBA 7(a) loans held for investment amounted to $38.5 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $2.4 million from $36.1 million at December 31, 2021. The yield on SBA 7(a) loans, which is generally floating and adjusts quarterly to the Prime Rate, was 6.60 percent for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to 6.10 percent in the prior year.
The guarantee rates on SBA 7(a) loans range from 50 percent to 90 percent, with the majority of the portfolio having a guarantee rate of 75 percent at origination. The guarantee rates are determined by the SBA and can vary from year to year depending on government funding and the goals of the SBA program. Approximately $72.1 million and $87.4 million in SBA loans were sold but serviced by the Company at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and are not included on the Company’s balance sheet. There is no direct relationship or correlation between the guarantee percentages and the level of charge-offs and recoveries on the Company’s SBA 7(a) loans. Charge-offs taken on SBA 7(a) loans effect the unguaranteed portion of the loan. SBA loans are underwritten to the same credit standards irrespective of the guarantee percentage.
Commercial loans are generally made in the Company’s marketplace for the purpose of providing working capital, financing the purchase of equipment, inventory or commercial real estate and for other business purposes. These loans
32
amounted to $1.2 billion at December 31, 2022, an increase of $255.8 million from year end 2021. The yield on commercial loans was 5.10 percent for 2022, compared to 4.98 percent for the same period in 2021. The SBA 504 program, which consists of real estate backed commercial mortgages where the Company has the first mortgage and the SBA has the second mortgage on the property, is included in the Commercial loan portfolio. The Commercial Real Estate sub-category includes both owner occupied and non-owner occupied commercial real estate related loans.
Residential mortgage loans consist of loans secured by 1 to 4 family residential properties. These loans amounted to $605.1 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $195.7 million from year end 2021. Sales of mortgage loans totaled $74.4 million and $286.4 million for 2022 and 2021, respectively. Approximately $13.7 million and $18.8 million in residential loans were sold but serviced by the Company at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and are not included on the Company’s balance sheet. The yield on residential mortgages was 4.62 percent for 2022, compared to 4.47 percent for 2021. Residential mortgage loans maintained in portfolio are generally to individuals that do not qualify for conventional financing. In extending credit to this category of borrowers, the Bank considers other mitigating factors such as credit history, equity and liquid reserves of the borrower. As a result, the residential mortgage loan portfolio of the Bank includes fixed and adjustable rate mortgages with rates that exceed the rates on conventional fixed-rate mortgage loan products but are not considered high priced mortgages.
Consumer loans consist of home equity loans and loans for the purpose of financing the purchase of consumer goods, home improvements and other personal needs, and are generally secured by the personal property. These loans amounted to $78.2 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $220.0 thousand from December 31, 2021. The yield on consumer loans was 5.27 percent for 2022, compared to 4.73 percent for 2021.
Residential construction loans consist of short-term loans for the purpose of funding the costs of building a home. These loans amounted to $163.5 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $42.9 million from December 31, 2021. The yield on residential construction loans was 6.17 percent for 2022, compared to 5.97 percent for 2021.
There are no concentrations of loans to any borrowers or group of borrowers exceeding 10 percent of the total loan portfolio.
In the normal course of business, the Company may originate loan products whose terms could give rise to additional credit risk. Interest-only loans, loans with high LTV ratios, construction loans with payments made from interest reserves and multiple loans supported by the same collateral (e.g. home equity loans) are examples of such products. However, these products are not material to the Company’s financial position and are closely managed via credit controls that mitigate their additional inherent risk. Management does not believe that these products create a concentration of credit risk in the Company’s loan portfolio. The Company does not have any option adjustable rate mortgage loans.
The majority of the Company’s loans are secured by real estate. Declines in the market values of real estate in the Company’s trade area impact the value of the collateral securing its loans. This could lead to greater losses in the event of defaults on loans secured by real estate. At December 31, 2022, approximately 96 percent of the Company’s loan portfolio was secured by real estate compared to 92 percent at December 31, 2021.

Troubled Debt Restructurings
At December 31, 2022, there were three loans totaling $1.4 million that were classified as TDRs, compared to three loans totaling $1.0 million at December 31, 2021. Restructured loans that are placed in nonaccrual status may be removed after six months of contractual payments and the borrower showing the ability to service the debt going forward. The TDRs are in accrual status since they are performing in accordance with the restructured terms. There are no commitments to lend additional funds on these loans.
The following table presents a breakdown of performing and nonperforming TDRs by class as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Nonperforming loans were $9.1 million at December 31, 2022, a $621 thousand decrease from $9.7 million at year end 2021. Since year end 2021, nonperforming loans in the commercial and consumer loan segments decreased, partially offset by an increase in nonperforming residential construction, SBA and residential mortgage loans. In addition, there were no loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The Company also monitors potential problem loans. Potential problem loans are those loans where information about possible credit problems of borrowers causes management to have doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with loan repayment terms. These loans are categorized by their non-passing risk rating and performing loan status. Potential problem loans totaled $14.7 million at December 31, 2022, a decrease of $1.9 million from $16.6 million at December 31, 2021.
For additional information on asset quality, see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Total deposits increased $28.6 million to $1.8 billion at December 31, 2022. This increase in deposits was due to increases of $133.9 million in time deposits and $32.1 million in interest-bearing demand deposits, partially offset by a decrease of $102.3 million in savings deposits and $35.0 million in noninterest-bearing demand deposits. Further, brokered certificates of deposits, which are disclosed in time deposits above, increased $69.3 million, to $189.6 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $120.3 million at December 31, 2021.
The Company’s deposit composition at December 31, 2022, consisted of 33.1 percent savings deposits, 27.6 percent noninterest-bearing demand deposits, 23.8 percent time deposits and 15.5 percent interest-bearing demand deposits. The change in the composition of the portfolio from December 31, 2021 reflects a 45.9 percent increase in time deposits and a 13.2 percent increase in interest-bearing demand deposits, partially offset by a 14.7 percent decrease in savings deposits and a 6.6 percent decrease in noninterest-bearing demand deposits.

Borrowed Funds and Subordinated Debentures
As part of the Company’s overall funding and liquidity management program, from time to time the Company borrows from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York. Residential mortgages and commercial loans collateralize these borrowings.
Borrowed funds and subordinated debentures totaled $393.3 million and $50.3 million at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and are broken down in the following table:

In December 2022, the FHLB issued a $140.0 million municipal deposits letter of credit in the name of Unity Bank naming the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance as beneficiary, to secure municipal deposits as required under New Jersey law, compared to a letter of credit with a balance of $112.0 million as of December 31, 2021.
At December 31, 2022, the Company had $198.0 million of additional credit available at the FHLB. Pledging additional collateral in the form of 1 to 4 family residential mortgages, commercial loans and investment securities can increase the line with the FHLB.
For the year ending December 31, 2022, average FHLB borrowings were $102.5 million with a weighted average cost of 2.96%. The maximum borrowing during the year was $383.0 million.
Subordinated Debentures
On July 24, 2006, Unity (NJ) Statutory Trust II, a statutory business trust and wholly-owned subsidiary of Unity Bancorp, Inc., issued $10.0 million of floating rate capital trust pass through securities to investors due on July 24, 2036. The subordinated debentures are redeemable in whole or part, prior to maturity but after July 24, 2011. The floating interest rate on the subordinated debentures is three-month LIBOR plus 159 basis points and reprices quarterly. The floating interest rate was 6.319% at December 31, 2022 and 1.806% at December 31, 2021. The Company is currently evaluating its LIBOR-based exposure for this instrument.
Market Risk
Market risk for the Company is primarily limited to interest rate risk, which is the impact that changes in interest rates would have on future earnings. The Company’s Risk Management Committee (“RMC”) manages this risk. The principal
38
objectives of RMC are to establish prudent risk management guidelines, evaluate and control the level of interest rate risk in balance sheet accounts, determine the level of appropriate risk given the business focus, operating environment, capital and liquidity requirements and actively manage risk within Board-approved guidelines. The RMC reviews the maturities and repricing of loans, investments, deposits and borrowings, cash flow needs, current market conditions and interest rate levels.
The following table presents the Company’s EVE and NII sensitivity exposure related to an instantaneous and sustained parallel shift in market interest rate of 100, 200 and 300 bps, which were all in compliance with Board approved tolerances at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Liquidity
Consolidated Bank Liquidity
Liquidity measures the ability to satisfy current and future cash flow needs as they become due. A bank’s liquidity reflects its ability to meet loan demand, to accommodate possible outflows in deposits and to take advantage of interest rate opportunities in the marketplace. The Company’s liquidity is monitored by management and the Board of Directors which reviews historical funding requirements, the current liquidity position, sources and stability of funding, marketability of assets, options for attracting additional funds and anticipated future funding needs, including the level of unfunded commitments. The goal is to maintain sufficient asset-based liquidity to cover potential funding requirements in order to minimize dependence on volatile and potentially unstable funding markets.
The principal sources of funds at the Bank are deposits, scheduled amortization and prepayments of investment and loan principal, sales and maturities of investment securities, additional borrowings and funds provided by operations. While scheduled loan payments and maturing investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit inflows and outflows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows provides detail on the Company’s sources and uses of cash, as well as an indication of the Company’s ability to maintain an adequate level of liquidity. As the Consolidated Bank comprises the majority of the assets of the Company, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows is indicative of the Consolidated Bank’s activity. At December 31, 2022, the balance of cash and cash equivalents was $114.8 million, a decrease of $130.0 million from December 31, 2021. A discussion of the cash provided by and used in operating, investing and financing activities follows.
Operating activities provided $42.7 million and $32.5 million in net cash for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The primary sources of funds were net income from operations and adjustments to net income, such as the provision for loan losses and depreciation and amortization.
39
Investing activities used $541.3 million and $40.5 million in net cash for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Cash was primarily used to originate loans, purchase FHLB stock and other investment securities, partially offset by cash inflows from proceeds from the SBA forgiveness of PPP loans.
● | Securities. The Consolidated Bank’s available for sale investment portfolio amounted to $95.4 million and $56.5 million at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. This excludes the Parent Company’s securities discussed under the heading “Parent Company Liquidity” below. |
● | Loans. The SBA loans held for sale portfolio amounted to $27.9 million and $27.4 million at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Sales of these loans provide an additional source of liquidity for the Company. As an existing SBA 7(a) lender, the Company opted to participate in the PPP program. Forgiveness of these loans provided $42.0 million of additional liquidity for the year ended December 31, 2022. |
● | Outstanding Commitments. The Company was committed to advance approximately $514.8 million to its borrowers as of December 31, 2022, compared to $399.8 million at December 31, 2021, respectively. At December 31, 2022, $177.7 million of these commitments expire within one year, compared to $170.1 million at December 31, 2021. The Company had $5.6 million and $4.3 million in standby letters of credit at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which are included in the commitments amount noted above. The estimated fair value of these guarantees is not significant. The Company believes it has the necessary liquidity to honor all commitments. Many of these commitments will expire and never be funded. |
Financing activities provided $368.6 million and $33.5 million in net cash for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, primarily due to the proceeds of new borrowings and an increase in the Company’s deposits.
● | Deposits. As of December 31, 2022, deposits included $296.5 million of Government deposits, as compared to $247.7 million at year end 2021. These deposits are generally short in duration and are very sensitive to price competition. The Company believes that the current level of these types of deposits is appropriate. Included in the portfolio were $281.1 million of deposits from eighteen municipalities with account balances in excess of $5.0 million. The withdrawal of these deposits, in whole or in part, would not create a liquidity shortfall for the Company. |
● | Borrowed Funds. Total FHLB borrowings amounted to $383.0 million and $40.0 million as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York, the Company can borrow additional funds based on the market value of collateral pledged. At December 31, 2022, pledging provided an additional $198.0 million in borrowing potential from the FHLB. In addition, the Company can pledge additional collateral in the form of 1 to 4 family residential mortgages, commercial loans or investment securities to increase this line with the FHLB. |
Parent Company Liquidity
The Parent Company’s cash needs are funded by dividends paid and rental payments on corporate headquarters by the Bank. Other than its investment in the Bank, Unity Risk Management Inc., and Unity Statutory Trust II, the Parent Company does not actively engage in other transactions or business. Only expenses specifically for the benefit of the Parent Company are paid using its cash, which typically includes the payment of operating expenses, cash dividends on common stock and payments on trust preferred debt.
At December 31, 2022, the Parent Company had $2.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and $5.7 million in investment securities valued at fair market value, compared to $1.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and $5.0 million in investment securities at December 31, 2021.

Standby letters of credit are typically short-term in duration, maturing in one year or less.
Time deposits have stated maturity dates. For additional information on time deposits, see Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Borrowed funds and subordinated debentures include fixed and adjustable rate borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank and subordinated debentures. The borrowings have defined terms and under certain circumstances are callable at the option of the lender. For additional information on borrowed funds and subordinated debentures, see Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Capital Adequacy
A significant measure of the strength of a financial institution is its capital base. Shareholders’ equity increased $33.5 million to $239.2 million at December 31, 2022 compared to $205.7 million at December 31, 2021, primarily due to net income of $38.5 million. Other increases were due to $3.0 million from the issuance of common stock under employee benefit plans, net of tax. These increases were partially offset by (i) $42 thousand in treasury stock purchased at cost, (ii) $4.4 million in dividends paid on common stock, and (iii) $3.6 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax.
For additional information on shareholders’ equity, see Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
On September 17, 2019, the federal banking agencies issued a final rule providing simplified capital requirements for certain community banking organizations (banks and holding companies) with less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets, implementing provisions of The Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act (“EGRRCPA”). Under the rule, a qualifying community banking organization would be eligible to elect the community bank leverage ratio framework or continue to measure capital under the existing Basel III requirements. The new rule, effective beginning January 1, 2020, allowed qualifying community banking organizations (“QCBO”) to opt into the new community bank leverage ratio (“CBLR”) in their call report beginning in the first quarter of 2020.
A QCBO is defined as a bank, a savings association, a bank holding company or a savings and loan holding company with:
● | A leverage capital ratio of greater than 9%; |
● | Total consolidated assets of less than $10.0 billion; |
● | Total off-balance sheet exposures (excluding derivatives other than credit derivatives and unconditionally cancelable commitments) of 25% or less of total consolidated assets; and |
● | Total trading assets and trading liabilities of 5% or less of total consolidated assets. |
41
The Bank has opted into the CBLR and is therefore not required to comply with the Basel III capital requirements.
As of December 31, 2022, the Bank’s CBLR was 10.34% and the Company’s CBLR was 10.45%.

Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains certain forward-looking statements, either expressed or implied, which are provided to assist the reader in understanding anticipated future financial performance. These statements involve certain risks, uncertainties, estimates and assumptions by management.
Factors that may cause actual results to differ from those results expressed or implied, include, but are not limited to those listed under “Item 1A - Risk Factors” in this Annual Report; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the overall economy and the interest rate environment; the ability of customers to repay their obligations; the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses; competition; significant changes in tax, accounting or regulatory practices and requirements; and technological changes. Although management has taken certain steps to mitigate the negative effect of the aforementioned items, significant unfavorable changes could severely impact the assumptions used and have an adverse effect on future profitability.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
New Authoritative Accounting Guidance
See Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements for a description of recent accounting pronouncements, including the dates of adoption and the anticipated effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Allowance for Loan Losses and Unfunded Loan Commitments
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level management considers adequate to provide for probable loan losses as of the balance sheet date. The allowance is increased by provisions charged to expense and is reduced by net charge-offs.
The level of the allowance is based on management’s evaluation of probable losses in the loan portfolio, after consideration of prevailing economic conditions in the Company’s market area, the volume and composition of the loan portfolio and historical loan loss experience. The allowance for loan losses consists of specific reserves for individually impaired credits and TDRs and reserves for nonimpaired loans based on historical loss factors and reserves based on general economic factors and other qualitative risk factors, such as changes in delinquency trends, industry concentrations or local/national economic trends. This risk assessment process is performed at least quarterly, and, as adjustments become necessary, they are realized in the periods in which they become known.
Although management attempts to maintain the allowance at a level deemed adequate to provide for probable losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based upon certain factors including changes in market conditions and underlying collateral values. In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically review the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for loan losses. These agencies may require the Company to make additional provisions based on judgments about information available at the time of the examination.
The Company maintains an allowance for unfunded loan commitments that is maintained at a level that management believes is adequate to absorb estimated probable losses. Adjustments to the allowance are made through other expenses and applied to the allowance which is maintained in other liabilities.
42
For additional information on the allowance for loan losses and unfunded loan commitments, see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes according to the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates applicable to taxable income for the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. If tax reform results in a decline in the corporate tax rates the Company would have to write-down its deferred tax asset.
Valuation reserves are established against certain deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Increases or decreases in the valuation reserve are charged or credited to the income tax provision.
When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that ultimately would be sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. The evaluation of a tax position taken is considered by itself and not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits would be recognized in income tax expense on the income statement.
For additional information on income taxes, see Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Overview
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Unity Bancorp, Inc. (the “Parent Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Unity Bank (the “Bank” or when consolidated with the Parent Company, the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Unity Bancorp, Inc. is a bank holding company incorporated in New Jersey and registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. Its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Bank, is chartered by the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance. The Bank provides a full range of commercial and retail banking services through
Unity Investment Services, Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Unity Bank and is used to hold and administer part of the Bank’s investment portfolio. Unity Investment Services, Inc. has one subsidiary, Unity Delaware Investment 2, Inc., which has one subsidiary, Unity NJ REIT, Inc., which was formed in 2013 to hold real estate related loans.
The Company has
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial conditions and results of operations for the periods indicated. Amounts requiring the use of significant estimates include the allowance for loan losses, valuation of deferred tax and servicing assets, the carrying value of loans held for sale, other real estate owned, the valuation of securities and the determination of other-than-temporary impairment for securities and fair value disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected local, national and global economic activity. Although, the economy has generally improved since March 2020, there still remains much uncertainty around the containment of the pandemic and the trajectory of the broader economic recovery. The Company continues to be subject to heightened business, operational (including fraud), market, credit and other risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic environment and changes in which people work and shop originating from the pandemic, which may have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
On July 27, 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced that it will no longer persuade or compel banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR to the LIBOR administrator after 2021. The announcement also indicates that the continuation of LIBOR on the current basis cannot and will not be guaranteed after 2021, although LIBOR rates of certain tenors may be published until June 2023. Consequently, at this time, it is not possible to predict whether and to what extent banks will continue to provide LIBOR submissions to the LIBOR administrator or whether any additional reforms to LIBOR may be enacted in the United Kingdom or elsewhere. Similarly, it is not possible to predict whether LIBOR will continue to be viewed as an acceptable benchmark for certain loans and liabilities until LIBOR becomes unavailable, including the Company’s subordinated notes, or the effect of any such changes in views or alternatives on the values of the loans and liabilities, whose interest rates are tied to LIBOR.
50
Uncertainty as to the nature of such potential changes, the elimination and replacement of LIBOR or other reforms may adversely affect the value of, and the return on the Company's loans, and its investment securities.
Overall, the markets and customers serviced by the Company may be significantly impacted by the ongoing macro-economic trends, such as inflation and recessionary pressures created by a higher interest rate environment. The Company assesses the impact of inflation on an ongoing basis and the impacts of inflation may have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks and interest-bearing deposits.
Securities
The Company classifies its securities into three categories, debt securities available for sale, debt securities held to maturity and equity securities with readily determinable fair values ("equity securities").
Debt securities that are classified as available for sale are stated at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale are excluded from results of operations and are reported as other comprehensive income, a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of taxes. Debt securities classified as available for sale include debt securities that may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, changes in prepayment risks or for asset/liability management purposes or liquidity needs. The cost of debt securities sold is determined on a specific identification basis. Gains and losses on sales of debt securities are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income on a trade date basis.
Debt securities are classified as held to maturity based on management’s intent and ability to hold them to maturity. Such debt securities are stated at cost, adjusted for unamortized purchase premiums and discounts using the level yield method.
Equity securities are investments carried at fair value that may be sold in response to changing market and interest rate conditions or for other business purposes. Activity in this portfolio is undertaken primarily to manage liquidity and interest rate risk, to take advantage of market conditions that create economically attractive returns and as an additional source of earnings. Periodic net gains and losses on equity investments are recognized in the income statement as realized gains and losses.
For additional information on securities, see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Other-Than-Temporary Impairment
The Company has a process in place to identify debt securities that could potentially incur credit impairment that is other-than-temporary. This process involves monitoring late payments, pricing levels, downgrades by rating agencies, key financial ratios, financial statements, revenue forecasts and cash flow projections as indicators of credit issues. Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis and more frequently when economic or market concern warrants such evaluation. This evaluation considers relevant facts and circumstances in evaluating whether a credit or interest rate-related impairment of a security is other-than-temporary. Relevant facts and circumstances considered include: (1) the extent and length of time the fair value has been below cost; (2) the reasons for the decline in value; (3) the financial position and access to capital of the issuer, including the current and future impact of any specific events and (4) for fixed maturity securities, the intent to sell a security or whether it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the security before the recovery of its amortized cost which, in some cases, may extend to maturity.
Management assesses its intent to sell or whether it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell a security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period credit losses. For debt securities that are considered other-than-temporarily impaired where management has no intent to sell and the Company has no requirement to sell prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis, the amount of the impairment is separated into the amount that is credit related
51
(credit loss component) and the amount due to all other factors. The credit loss component is recognized in earnings and is the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and the present value of its expected future cash flows. The remaining difference between the security’s fair value and the present value of future expected cash flows is due to factors that are not credit related and is recognized in other comprehensive income. For debt securities where management has the intent to sell, the amount of the impairment is reflected in earnings as realized losses.
The present value of expected future cash flows is determined using the best estimate cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate implicit to the security at the date of purchase or the current yield to accrete an asset-backed or floating rate security. The methodology and assumptions for establishing the best estimate cash flows vary depending on the type of security. The asset-backed securities cash flow estimates are based on bond specific facts and circumstances that may include collateral characteristics, expectations of delinquency and default rates, loss severity and prepayment speeds and structural support, including subordination and guarantees. The corporate bond cash flow estimates are derived from scenario-based outcomes of expected corporate restructurings or the disposition of assets using bond specific facts and circumstances including timing, security interests and loss severity.
Transfers of Financial Assets
Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.
Loans
Loans Held for Sale
Loans held for sale represent the guaranteed portion of certain SBA loans, other than loans originated under the Paycheck Protection Program, and are reflected at the lower of aggregate cost or market value. The Company originates loans to customers under an SBA program that historically has provided for SBA guarantees of up to
Servicing assets represent the estimated fair value of retained servicing rights, net of servicing costs, at the time loans are sold. Servicing assets are amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing revenues. Impairment is evaluated based on stratifying the underlying financial assets by date of origination and term. Fair value is determined using prices for similar assets with similar characteristics, when available, or based upon discounted cash flows using market-based assumptions. Any impairment, if temporary, would generally be reported as a valuation allowance.
Serviced loans sold to others are not included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Income and fees collected for loan servicing are credited to noninterest income when earned, net of amortization on the related servicing assets.
For additional information on servicing assets, see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Loans Held for Investment
Loans held for investment are stated at the unpaid principal balance, net of unearned discounts and deferred loan origination fees and costs. In accordance with the level yield method, loan origination fees, net of direct loan origination
52
costs, are deferred and recognized over the estimated life of the related loans as an adjustment to the loan yield. Interest is credited to operations primarily based upon the principal balance outstanding.
Loans are reported as past due when either interest or principal is unpaid in the following circumstances: fixed payment loans when the borrower is in arrears for two or more monthly payments; open end credit for two or more billing cycles; and single payment notes if interest or principal remains unpaid for 30 days or more.
Nonperforming loans consist of loans that are not accruing interest as a result of principal or interest being delinquent for a period of 90 days or more or when the ability to collect principal and interest according to the contractual terms is in doubt (nonaccrual loans). When a loan is classified as nonaccrual, interest accruals are discontinued and all past due interest previously recognized as income is reversed and charged against current period earnings. Generally, until the loan becomes current, any payments received from the borrower are applied to outstanding principal until such time as management determines that the financial condition of the borrower and other factors merit recognition of a portion of such payments as interest income. Loans may be returned to an accrual status when the ability to collect is reasonably assured and when the loan is brought current as to principal and interest.
Loans are charged off when collection is sufficiently questionable and when the Company can no longer justify maintaining the loan as an asset on the balance sheet. Loans qualify for charge-off when, after thorough analysis, all possible sources of repayment are insufficient. These include: 1) potential future cash flows, 2) value of collateral, and/or 3) strength of co-makers and guarantors. All unsecured loans are charged off upon the establishment of the loan’s nonaccrual status. Additionally, all loans classified as a loss or that portion of the loan classified as a loss is charged off. All loan charge-offs are approved by executive management and the Board of Directors.
Troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") occur when a creditor, for economic or legal reasons related to a debtor’s financial condition, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. These concessions typically include reductions in interest rate, extending the maturity of a loan, or a combination of both. Interest income on accruing TDRs is credited to operations primarily based upon the principal amount outstanding, as stated in the paragraphs above.
The Company evaluates its loans for impairment. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Company has defined impaired loans to be all TDRs and nonperforming loans individually evaluated for impairment. Impairment of a loan is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or as a practical expedient, based on a loan’s observable market price or the fair value of collateral, net of estimated costs to sell, if the loan is collateral-dependent. If the value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the Company establishes a valuation allowance, or adjusts existing valuation allowances, with a corresponding charge to the provision for loan losses.
For additional information on loans, see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Allowance for Loan Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Loan Commitments
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level management considers adequate to provide for probable loan losses as of the balance sheet date. The allowance is increased by provisions charged to expense and is reduced by net charge-offs.
The level of the allowance is based on management’s evaluation of probable losses in the loan portfolio, after consideration of prevailing economic conditions in the Company’s market area, the volume and composition of the loan portfolio and historical loan loss experience. The allowance for loan losses consists of specific reserves for individually impaired credits and TDRs, reserves for nonimpaired loans based on historical loss factors adjusted for general economic factors and other qualitative risk factors such as changes in delinquency trends, industry concentrations or local/national economic trends. This risk assessment process is performed at least quarterly and, as adjustments become necessary, they are realized in the periods in which they become known.
53
Although management attempts to maintain the allowance at a level deemed adequate to provide for probable losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based upon certain factors including changes in market conditions and underlying collateral values. In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically review the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for loan losses. These agencies may require the Company to make additional provisions based on their judgments about information available at the time of the examination.
The Company maintains a reserve for unfunded loan commitments at a level that management believes is adequate to absorb estimated probable losses. Adjustments to the reserve are made through other expenses and applied to the reserve which is classified as other liabilities.
For additional information on the allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded loan commitments, see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Premises and Equipment, net
Land is carried at cost. All other fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The useful life of buildings is not to exceed
For additional information on premises and equipment, see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Bank Owned Life Insurance
The Company purchased life insurance policies on certain members of management. Bank owned life insurance is recorded at its cash surrender value or the amount that can be realized.
Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) Stock
Federal law requires a member institution of the Federal Home Loan Bank system to hold stock of its district FHLB according to a predetermined formula. The stock is carried at cost. Management reviews the stock for impairment based on the ultimate recoverability of the cost basis in the stock. The stock’s value is determined by the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines. Management considers such criteria as the significance of the decline in net assets, if any, of the FHLB, the length of time this situation has persisted, commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation, the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on the customer base of the FHLB and the liquidity position of the FHLB.
Accrued Interest Receivable
Accrued interest receivable consists of amounts earned on investments and loans. The Company recognizes accrued interest receivable as it is earned.
Other Real Estate Owned
Other real estate owned (“OREO”) is recorded at the fair value, less estimated costs to sell at the date of acquisition, with a charge to the allowance for loan losses for any excess of the loan carrying value over such amount. Subsequently, OREO is carried at the lower of cost or fair value, as determined by current appraisals. Certain costs that increase the value or extend the useful life in preparing properties for sale are capitalized to the extent that the appraisal amount exceeds the carrying value and expenses of holding foreclosed properties are charged to operations as incurred.
Goodwill
The Company accounts for goodwill and other intangible assets in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,” which allows an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to
54
perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. Based on a qualitative assessment, management determined that the Company’s recorded goodwill totaling $
Appraisals
All appraisals must be performed in accordance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (“USPAP”). Appraisals are certified to the Company and performed by appraisers on the Company’s approved list of appraisers. Evaluations are completed by a person independent of Company management. The content of the appraisal depends on the complexity of the property.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company utilizes derivative instruments in the form of interest rate swaps to hedge its exposure to interest rate risk in conjunction with its overall asset and liability risk management process. In accordance with accounting requirements, the Company formally designates all of its hedging relationships as either fair value hedges or cash flow hedges. The Company’s derivative instruments currently consist of cash flow hedges.
The Company recognizes all derivative instruments at fair value as either Other assets or Other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and the related cash flows in the Operating Activities section of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
For derivatives designated cash flow hedges (i.e., hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows), the gain or loss on the derivative is reported in other comprehensive income and is reclassified into earnings in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.
Those derivative financial instruments that do not meet the hedging criteria discussed below would be classified as undesignated derivatives and would be recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in income.
The Company discontinues hedge accounting when (a) it determines that a derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of a hedged item; (b) the derivative expires or is sold, terminated or exercised; (c) probability exists that the forecasted transaction will no longer occur; or (d) management determines that designating the derivative as a hedging instrument is no longer appropriate. In all cases in which hedge accounting is discontinued and a derivative remains outstanding, the Company will carry the derivative at fair value in the Consolidated Financial Statements, recognizing changes in fair value in current period income in the consolidated statement of income.
For additional information on derivative instruments and hedging activities, see Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Income Taxes
The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("FASB ASC") Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which prescribes a threshold for the financial statement recognition of income taxes and provides criteria for the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also includes guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition of income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates applicable to taxable income for the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation reserves are established against certain deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Increases or decreases in the valuation reserve are charged or credited to the income tax provision.
55
When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that ultimately would be sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. The evaluation of a tax position taken is considered by itself and not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.
Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are recognized in income tax expense on the income statement.
For additional information on income taxes, see Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Net Income Per Share
Basic net income per common share is calculated as net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the reporting period.
Diluted net income per common share is computed similarly to that of basic net income per common share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common shares, principally stock options, were issued during the reporting period utilizing the Treasury stock method. However, when a net loss rather than net income is recognized, diluted earnings per share equals basic earnings per share.
For additional information on net income per share, see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation awards in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation,” which requires recognition of compensation expense related to stock-based compensation awards over the period during which an employee is required to provide service for the award. Compensation expense is equal to the fair value of the award, net of estimated forfeitures, and is recognized over the vesting period of such awards.
For additional information on the Company’s stock-based compensation, see Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Fair Value
The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures,” which provides a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles.
For additional information on the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, see Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Other Comprehensive Income (Losses)
Other comprehensive income (loss) consists of the change in unrealized gains (losses) on SERP, securities available for sale and derivative related items that were reported as a component of shareholders’ equity, net of tax.
56
For additional information on other comprehensive income (loss), see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Dividend Restrictions
Banking regulations require maintaining certain capital levels that may limit the dividends paid by the Bank to the holding company or by the holding company to the shareholders.
Operating Segments
While management monitors the revenue streams of its various products and services, operating results and financial performance are evaluated on a company-wide basis. The Company’s management uses consolidated results to make operating and strategic decisions. Accordingly, there is only
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
ASU 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." ASU 2020-04 provides temporary optional guidance intended to ease the burden of reference rate reform on financial reporting. The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying existing guidance to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions that are expected to be affected by reference rate reform and meet certain scope guidance. ASU 2020-04 provides various optional expedients, including the following, for hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met:
● | An entity can change certain critical terms of the hedging instrument or hedged item or transaction without having to dedesignate the relationship. |
● | For fair value hedging relationships in which the designated interest rate is LIBOR or another rate that is expected to be discontinued, an entity may change the hedged risk to another permitted benchmark rate without dedesignating the relationship. |
● | For cash flow hedging relationships in which the designated hedged risk is LIBOR or another rate that is expected to be discontinued, an entity may assert that the occurrence of the hedged forecasted transaction remains probable. |
● | Certain qualifying conditions for the shortcut method and other methods that assume perfect effectiveness may be disregarded. |
In addition, ASU 2020-04 permits an entity to make a one-time election to sell, transfer or both sell and transfer debt securities classified as held to maturity that reference a rate affected by reference rate reform and that were classified as held to maturity before January 1, 2020. ASU 2020-04 was effective upon its issuance on March 12, 2020. However, it cannot be applied to contract modifications that occur after December 31, 2022. With certain exceptions, the ASU also cannot be applied to hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after that date. The company is currently evaluating the various optional expedients as well as impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-04 on its consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope.” ASU 2021-01 was issued to clarify certain optional expedients and exceptions in ASC 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting applied to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transaction. In addition, the ASU clarifies that a receive-variable-rate, pay-variable-rate cross-currency interest rate swap may be considered eligible as a hedging instrument in a net investment hedge if both legs of the swap do not have the same repricing intervals and dates as a result of the reference rate reform. ASU 2021-01 became effective January 7, 2021. The Company currently uses the shortcut method as the practical expedient.
ASU 2022-06, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)”: provides optional guidance to ease potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting during the transition period. The Board included a sunset provision within Topic 848 based on expectations of when the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) would cease being published. At the time that Updated 2020-04 was issued, the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) had established its intent that it would no longer be necessary to persuade, or compel, banks to submit to LIBOR after December 31, 2021. As a result, the sunset provision was set for December 31, 2022 – 12 months after the expected cessation date of all currencies and tenors of LIBOR. Because the current relief in Topic 848 may not cover
57
a period during which a significant number of modifications may take place, the amendments in this update defer the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 21, 2022, to December 31, 2024, after which entities will no longer be permitted to apply the relief in Topic 848.
New Accounting Guidance Adopted in the First Quarter 2023
ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” amends the accounting guidance regarding the impairment of financial instruments. The FASB issued this guidance to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology with a new current credit loss (“CECL”) model. Under the new guidance, the Company will be required to measure expected credit losses by utilizing forward-looking information to assess its allowance for credit losses. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. The measurement of expected credit losses under CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loans and held to maturity debt securities. CECL also applies to certain off-balance sheet exposures.
The Company will adopt the new CECL accounting guidance effective January 1, 2023, using the modified retrospective approach for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures. The Company has established a governance structure to implement the CECL accounting guidance and has developed a methodology and set of models to be used upon adoption. At December 31, 2022, the Company’s loan portfolio totaled, $
For other assets within the scope of the new CECL accounting guidance, such as held to maturity debt securities and other receivables, management expects the impact from adoption to be inconsequential. Additionally, the Company does not expect the adoption of CECL to have significant impact on regulatory capital ratios of the Company and/or the Bank.
The Company is reviewing the performance of its most recent model run. As the Company finalizes the CECL implementation, final decisions made by management may result in a different impact than that stated above for financial statement and disclosure purposes.
ASU 2020-03, "Codification Improvement to Financial Instruments." ASU 2020-03 clarifies that all entities are required to provide the fair value option disclosures in paragraphs 825-10-50-24 through 50-32 of the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). ASU 2020-03 also clarifies that the contractual term of a net investment in a lease determined in accordance with ASC 842, “Leases,” should be the contractual term used to measure expected credit losses under ASC 326, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.” ASU 2020-03 also addresses amendments to ASC 860-20, “Transfers and Servicing – Sales of Financial Assets,” to clarify that when an entity regains control of financial assets sold, an allowance for credit losses should be recorded in accordance with ASC 326. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendment are the same as the effective date and transition requirements in ASU 2016-13. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-03 on its consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2022-01, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)”: ASU 2022-01 was issued to clarify the guidance in ACS 815 on fair value hedge accounting of interest rate risk for portfolios and financial assets. Among other things, the amended guidance established the “last-of-layer” method for making the fair value hedge accounting for these portfolios more accessible and renamed that method the portfolio the “portfolio layer” method. ASU 2022-01 is effective January 1, 2023 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326)”: eliminates the guidance on troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) and requires entities to evaluate all loan modifications to determine if they result in a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. ASU 2022-02 requires that entities disclose if they result in a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. ASU 2022-02 also requires that entities disclose current-period gross charge-offs by
58
year of origination for loans and leases. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2022-02 on its consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied.
The majority of the Company’s revenue-generating transactions are not subject to ASC 606, including revenue generated from financial instruments, such as loans, letters of credit, derivatives and investment securities, as well as revenue related to mortgage servicing activities, as these activities are subject to other GAAP discussed elsewhere within the Company’s disclosures. Descriptions of the Company’s revenue-generating activities that are within the scope of ASC 606, which are presented in its income statements as components of non-interest income are as follows:
● | Service charges on deposit accounts - these represent general service fees for monthly account maintenance and activity- or transaction based fees and consist of transaction-based revenue, time-based revenue (service period), item-based revenue or some other individual attribute-based revenue. Revenue is recognized when the Company’s performance obligation is completed which is generally monthly for account maintenance services or when a transaction has been completed (such as a wire transfer). Payment for such performance obligations are generally received at the time the performance obligations are satisfied. |
● | Other non-interest income primarily includes items such as letter of credit fees, bank owned life insurance income, dividends on FHLB and FRB stock and other general operating income, none of which are subject to the requirements of ASC 606. |
Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated all events or transactions that occurred through the date the Company issued these financial statements. During this period, the Company did not have any material recognizable or non-recognizable subsequent events.
Restrictions on Cash
Federal law required depository institutions to hold reserves in the form of vault cash or, if vault cash is insufficient, in the form of a deposit maintained with a Federal Reserve Bank. In response to COVID-19, on March 15, 2020, the FRB announced the reduction of the reserve requirement ratios to zero percent, effective March 26, 2020. This action eliminated the reserve requirement for depository institutions to help support lending to households and businesses.
In addition, the Company’s contract with its current electronic funds transfer (“EFT”) provider requires a predetermined balance be maintained in a settlement account controlled by the provider equal to the Company’s average daily net settlement position multiplied by four days. The required balance was $

Loans are made to individuals as well as commercial entities. Specific loan terms vary as to interest rate, repayment and collateral requirements based on the type of loan requested and the credit worthiness of the prospective borrower. Credit risk tends to be geographically concentrated in that a majority of the loan customers are located in the markets serviced by the Bank. Loan performance may be adversely affected by factors impacting the general economy or conditions specific to the real estate market such as geographic location and/or property type. A description of the Company’s different loan segments follows:
SBA Loans: SBA 7(a) loans, on which the SBA has historically provided guarantees of up to
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was signed into law. It contained substantial tax and spending provisions intended to address the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act included a range of other provisions designed to support the U.S. economy and mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on financial institutions and their customers, including through the authorization of various relief programs and measures that the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the Small Business Administration, the Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”) and other federal banking agencies have implemented or may implement.
62
The CARES Act provided assistance to small businesses through the establishment of the SBA Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). The PPP provided eligible small businesses with funds to pay up to 24 weeks of payroll costs, including certain benefits. The funds were provided in the form of loans that may be fully or partially forgiven when used for payroll costs, interest on mortgages, rent or utilities. The payments on these loans were deferred for up to six months. Loans made after June 5, 2020, mature in five years, and loans made prior to June 5, 2020, mature in two years but can be extended to five years if the lender agrees. Forgiveness of the PPP loans is based on the borrower maintaining or quickly rehiring employees and maintaining salary levels. Applications for the PPP loans started on April 3, 2020 and were extended through August 8, 2020. The Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Nonprofits and Venues Act (the “Economic Aid Act”) became law on December 27, 2020. Among other things, the Economic Aid Act extended the PPP through March 31, 2021 and allocated additional funds for new PPP loans, to be guaranteed by the SBA. The extension included an authorization to make new PPP loans to existing PPP loan borrowers, and to make loans to parties that did not previously obtain a PPP loan. Loans originated under the extended PPP had substantially the same terms as existing PPP loans. As an existing SBA 7(a) lender, the Company opted to participate in the program.
Commercial Loans: Commercial credit is extended primarily to middle market and small business customers. Commercial loans are generally made in the Company’s market place for the purpose of providing working capital, financing the purchase of equipment, inventory or commercial real estate and for other business purposes. The SBA 504 program consists of real estate backed commercial mortgages where the Company has the first mortgage and the SBA has the second mortgage on the property. Loans are generally guaranteed in full or for a meaningful amount by the businesses’ major owners. Commercial loans are made based primarily on the historical and projected cash flow of the business and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided.
Residential Mortgage, Consumer and Residential Construction Loans: The Company originates mortgage and consumer loans including principally residential real estate, home equity lines and loans and residential construction lines. The Company originates qualified mortgages which are generally sold in the secondary market and nonqualified mortgages which are generally held for investment. Each loan type is evaluated on debt to income, type of collateral, loan to collateral value, credit history and Company relationship with the borrower.
In 2021, the Company enrolled in the “Upgrade Consumer Unsecured Loan Program” to purchase consumer unsecured loans. This loan product has a fixed rate, fully amortizing term for up to
Inherent in the lending function is credit risk, which is the possibility a borrower may not perform in accordance with the contractual terms of their loan. A borrower’s inability to pay their obligations according to the contractual terms can create the risk of past due loans and, ultimately, credit losses, especially on collateral deficient loans. The Company minimizes its credit risk by loan diversification and adhering to credit administration policies and procedures. Due diligence on loans begins when the Company initiates contact regarding a loan with a borrower. Documentation, including a borrower’s credit history, materials establishing the value and liquidity of potential collateral, the purpose of the loan, the source of funds for repayment of the loan and other factors, are analyzed before a loan is submitted for approval. The loan portfolio is then subject to on-going internal reviews for credit quality, as well as independent credit reviews by an outside firm.
The Company’s extension of credit is governed by the Credit Risk Policy which was established to control the quality of the Company’s loans. These policies and procedures are reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors on a regular basis.
63
Credit Ratings
For SBA 7(a) and commercial loans, management uses internally assigned risk ratings as the best indicator of credit quality. A loan’s internal risk rating is reviewed at least annually and more frequently if circumstances warrant a change in risk rating. The Company uses a 1 through 10 loan grading system that follows regulatory accepted definitions.
Pass: Risk ratings of 1 through 6 are used for loans that are performing, as they meet, and are expected to continue to meet, all of the terms and conditions set forth in the original loan documentation, and are generally current on principal and interest payments. These performing loans are termed “Pass”.
Special Mention: Criticized loans are assigned a risk rating of 7 and termed “Special Mention”, as the borrowers exhibit potential credit weaknesses or downward trends deserving management’s close attention. If not checked or corrected, these trends will weaken the Bank’s collateral and position. While potentially weak, these borrowers are currently marginally acceptable and no loss of interest or principal is anticipated. As a result, special mention assets do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. Included in “Special Mention” could be turnaround situations, such as borrowers with deteriorating trends beyond one year, borrowers in start up or deteriorating industries, or borrowers with a poor market share in an average industry. "Special Mention" loans may include an element of asset quality, financial flexibility or below average management. Management and ownership may have limited depth or experience. Regulatory agencies have agreed on a consistent definition of “Special Mention” as an asset with potential weaknesses which, if left uncorrected, may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Bank’s credit position at some future date. This definition is intended to ensure that the “Special Mention” category is not used to identify assets that have as their sole weakness credit data exceptions or collateral documentation exceptions that are not material to the repayment of the asset.
Substandard: Classified loans are assigned a risk rating of an 8 or 9, depending upon the prospect for collection, and deemed “Substandard”. A risk rating of 8 is used for borrowers with well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the orderly liquidation of debt. The loan is inadequately protected by the current paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged, if any. Normal repayment from the borrower is in jeopardy, although no loss of principal is envisioned. There is a distinct possibility that a partial loss of interest and/or principal will occur if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard assets, does not have to exist in individual assets classified “Substandard”.
A risk rating of 9 is used for borrowers that have all the weaknesses inherent in a loan with a risk rating of 8, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection of debt in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. Serious problems exist to the point where partial loss of principal is likely. The possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important, reasonably specific pending factors that may work to strengthen the assets, the loan’s classification as loss is deferred until a more exact status may be determined. Pending factors include proposed merger, acquisition or liquidation procedures; capital injection; perfecting liens on additional collateral; and refinancing plans. Partial charge-offs are likely.
Loss: Once a borrower is deemed incapable of repayment of unsecured debt, the risk rating becomes a 10, the loan is termed a “Loss” and charged-off immediately. Loans to such borrowers are considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as active assets of the Bank is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the loan has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off these basically worthless assets even though partial recovery may occur in the future.
For residential mortgage, consumer and residential construction loans, management uses performing versus nonperforming as the best indicator of credit quality. Nonperforming loans consist of loans that are not accruing interest (nonaccrual loans) as a result of principal or interest being delinquent for a period of 90 days or more or when the ability to collect principal and interest according to the contractual terms is in doubt. These credit quality indicators are updated on an ongoing basis, as a loan is placed on nonaccrual status as soon as management believes there is sufficient doubt as to the ultimate ability to collect interest on a loan.

Nonperforming and Past Due Loans
Nonperforming loans consist of loans that are not accruing interest (nonaccrual loans) as a result of principal or interest being delinquent for a period of 90 days or more or when the ability to collect principal and interest according to the contractual terms is in doubt. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest are not included in nonperforming loans and generally represent loans that are well secured and in process of collection. The risk of loss is difficult to quantify and is subject to fluctuations in collateral values, general economic conditions and other factors. The Company values its collateral through the use of appraisals, broker price opinions and knowledge of its local market.

Impaired Loans
The Company has defined impaired loans to be all nonperforming loans and troubled debt restructurings. Management considers a loan impaired when, based on current information and events, it is determined that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the loan contract.

The following table presents the average recorded investments in impaired loans and the related amount of interest recognized during the time period in which the loans were impaired for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020. The average balances are calculated based on the month-end balances of impaired loans. When the ultimate collectability of the total principal of an impaired loan is in doubt and the loan is on nonaccrual status, all payments are applied to principal under the cost recovery method, therefore no interest income is recognized. The interest recognized on impaired loans noted below represents accruing troubled debt restructurings only and nominal amounts of income recognized on a cash basis for well-collateralized impaired loans.

Troubled Debt Restructurings
The Company’s loan portfolio includes certain loans that have been modified as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”). TDRs occur when a creditor, for economic or legal reasons related to a debtor’s financial condition, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider, unless it results in a delay in payment that is insignificant. These concessions typically include reductions in interest rate, extending the maturity of a loan, other modifications of payment terms or a combination of modifications. When the Company modifies a loan, management evaluates for any possible impairment using either the discounted cash flows method, where the value of the modified loan is based on the present value of expected cash flows, discounted at the contractual interest rate of the original loan agreement, or by using the fair value of the collateral less selling costs if the loan is collateral-dependent. If management determines that the value of the modified loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, impairment is recognized by segment or class of loan, as applicable, through an allowance estimate or charge-off to the allowance. This process is used, regardless of loan type, and for loans modified as TDRs that subsequently default on their modified terms.

Loan Portfolio Collateral:
The majority of the Company’s loans are secured by real estate. Declines in the market values of real estate in the Company’s trade area impact the value of the collateral securing its loans. This could lead to greater losses in the event of defaults on loans secured by real estate. At December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively, approximately
4. Allowance for Loan Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Loan Commitments
Allowance for Loan Losses
The Company has an established methodology to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses that assesses the risks and losses inherent in the loan portfolio. At a minimum, the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is reviewed by management on a quarterly basis. The allowance is increased by provisions charged to expense and is reduced by net charge-offs. For purposes of determining the allowance for loan losses, the Company has segmented the loans in its portfolio by loan type. Loans are segmented into the following pools: SBA 7(a), commercial, residential mortgages, consumer and residential construction loans. Certain portfolio segments are further broken down into classes based on the associated risks within those segments and the type of collateral underlying each loan. Commercial loans are divided into the following five classes: commercial real estate, commercial real estate construction, unsecured business line of credit, commercial other and SBA 504. Consumer loans are divided into two classes as follows: home equity and other.
71
The standardized methodology used to assess the adequacy of the allowance includes the allocation of specific and general reserves. The same standard methodology is used, regardless of loan type. Specific reserves are evaluated for individual impaired loans and TDRs. The general reserve is set based upon a representative average historical net charge-off rate adjusted for the following environmental factors: delinquency and impairment trends, charge-off and recovery trends, volume and loan term trends, changes in risk and underwriting policy trends, staffing and experience changes, national and local economic trends, industry conditions and credit concentration changes. Within the five-year historical net charge-off rate, the Company weights the past three years more heavily. All of the environmental factors are ranked and assigned a basis points value based on the following scale: low, low moderate, moderate, high moderate and high risk. Each environmental factor is evaluated separately for each class of loans and risk weighted based on its individual characteristics.
● | For SBA 7(a) and commercial loans, the estimate of loss based on pools of loans with similar characteristics is made through the use of a standardized loan grading system that is applied on an individual loan level and updated on a continuous basis. The loan grading system incorporates reviews of the financial performance of the borrower, including cash flow, debt-service coverage ratio, earnings power, debt level and equity position, in conjunction with an assessment of the borrower’s industry and future prospects. It also incorporates analysis of the type of collateral and the relative loan to value ratio. |
● | For residential mortgage, consumer and residential construction loans, the estimate of loss is based on pools of loans with similar characteristics. Factors such as credit score, delinquency status and type of collateral are evaluated. Factors are updated frequently to capture the recent behavioral characteristics of the subject portfolios, as well as any changes in loss mitigation or credit origination strategies, and adjustments to the reserve factors are made as needed. |
According to the Company’s policy, a loss (“charge-off”) is to be recognized and charged to the allowance for loan losses as soon as a loan is recognized as uncollectable. All credits which are 90 days past due must be analyzed for the Company’s ability to collect on the credit. Once a loss is known to exist, the charge-off approval process is immediately expedited. This charge-off policy is followed for all loan types.
The allocated allowance is the total of identified specific and general reserves by loan category. The allocation is not necessarily indicative of the categories in which future losses may occur. The total allowance is available to absorb losses from any segment of the portfolio.
The following tables detail the activity in the allowance for loan losses by portfolio segment for the past three years:

Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company has derivative financial instruments in the form of interest rate swap agreements, which derive their value from underlying interest rates. These transactions involve both credit and market risk. The notional amounts are amounts on which calculations, payments and the value of the derivatives are based. Notional amounts do not represent direct credit exposures. Direct credit exposure is limited to the net difference between the calculated amounts to be received and paid, if any. Such difference, which represents the fair value of the derivative instrument, is reflected on the Company’s balance sheet as Other assets or Other liabilities.
The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to any derivative agreement. The Company controls the credit risk of its financial contracts through credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures, and does not expect any counterparties to fail their obligations. The Company deals only with primary dealers.
Derivative instruments are generally either negotiated OTC contracts or standardized contracts executed on a recognized exchange. Negotiated OTC derivative contracts are generally entered into between two counterparties that negotiate specific agreement terms, including the underlying instrument, amount, exercise prices and maturity.
Risk Management Policies – Hedging Instruments
The primary focus of the Company’s asset/liability management program is to monitor the sensitivity of the Company’s net portfolio value and net income under varying interest rate scenarios to take steps to control its risks. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates the effectiveness of entering into any derivative agreement by measuring the cost of such an agreement in relation to the reduction in net portfolio value and net income volatility within an assumed range of interest rates.
Interest Rate Risk Management – Cash Flow Hedging Instruments
The Company has variable rate debt as a source of funds for use in the Company’s lending and investment activities and for other general business purposes. These debt obligations expose the Company to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. If interest rates increase, interest expense increases. Conversely, if interest rates decrease, interest expense decreases. Management believes it is prudent to limit the variability of a portion of its interest payments and, therefore hedges its variable-rate interest payments. To meet this objective, management enters into interest rate swap agreements whereby the Company receives variable interest rate payments and makes fixed interest rate payments during the contract period.

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company received variable rate LIBOR payments from and paid fixed rates in accordance with its interest rate swap agreements. The unrealized gains relating to interest rate swaps are recorded as a derivative asset and are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets in the Company’s Balance Sheet, and the unrealized losses are recorded as a derivative liability and are included in Accrued expenses and

other liabilities. Changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps designated as hedging instruments of the variability of cash flows associated with long-term debt are reported in other comprehensive income. The amount included in accumulated other comprehensive income would be reclassified to current earnings should the hedges no longer be considered effective. The Company expects the hedges to remain fully effective during the remaining terms of the swaps.

8. Leases and Commitments
Leases
Operating leases in which the Bank is the lessee and the term is greater than 12 months, are recorded as right of use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities, and are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets and Accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively, on the Bank’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Bank does not currently have any finance leases in which it is the lessee.
Operating lease ROU assets represent the Bank’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement based on the present value of the remaining lease payments using a discount rate that represents the Bank’s incremental borrowing rate. The borrowing rate for each lease is unique based on the lease term. Operating lease expense, which is comprised of amortization of the ROU asset and the implicit interest accreted on the operating lease liability, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and is recorded in Occupancy expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
The Bank’s leases relate primarily to bank branches, office space and equipment with remaining lease terms of generally
Certain real estate leases have lease payments that adjust based on annual changes in the Consumer Price Index ("CPI"). The leases that are dependent upon CPI are initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date and are included in the measurement of the lease liability.

The Company computes deferred income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are recognized for tax consequences of “temporary differences” by applying enacted statutory tax rates to differences between the financial reporting and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities. A deferred tax liability is recognized for all temporary differences that will result in future taxable income. A deferred tax asset is recognized for all temporary differences that will result in future tax deductions subject to reduction of the asset by a valuation allowance.
Included as a component of deferred tax assets is an income tax expense (benefit) related to unrealized gains (losses) on securities available for sale, a supplemental retirement plan (“SERP”) and interest rate swaps. The after-tax component of each of these is included in other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity. The after-tax component related to securities available for sale was an unrealized loss of $
The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which prescribes a threshold for the financial statement recognition of income taxes and provides criteria for the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also includes guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition of income taxes. The Company did not recognize or accrue any interest or penalties related to income taxes during the years ended December 31, 2022 or 2021. The Company does not have an accrual for uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2022 or 2021, as deductions taken and benefits accrued are based on widely understood administrative practices and procedures and are based on clear and unambiguous tax law. Tax returns for all years 2019 and thereafter are subject to future examination by tax authorities.

15. Fair Value
Fair Value Measurement
The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures,” which requires additional disclosures about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various methods including market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Company often utilizes certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated or generally unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed as follows:
Level 1 Inputs
● | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. |
● | Generally, this includes debt and equity securities and derivative contracts that are traded in an active exchange market (i.e. New York Stock Exchange), as well as certain U.S. Treasury, U.S. Government and |
87
sponsored entity agency mortgage-backed securities that are highly liquid and are actively traded in over-the-counter markets. |
Level 2 Inputs
● | Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets. |
● | Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets. |
● | Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for the term of the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, credit risks, prepayment speeds or volatilities) or “market corroborated inputs.” |
● | Generally, this includes U.S. Government and sponsored entity mortgage-backed securities, corporate debt securities and derivative contracts. |
Level 3 Inputs
● | Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable (i.e. supported by little or no market activity) and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. |
● | These assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. |
Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
Debt Securities Available for Sale
The fair value of available for sale ("AFS") debt securities is the market value based on quoted market prices, when available, or market prices provided by recognized broker dealers (Level 1). If listed prices or quotes are not available, fair value is based upon quoted market prices for similar or identical assets or other observable inputs (Level 2) or externally developed models that use unobservable inputs due to limited or no market activity of the instrument (Level 3).
As of December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Company’s AFS debt securities portfolio was $
Most of the Company’s AFS debt securities were classified as Level 2 assets at December 31, 2022. The valuation of AFS debt securities using Level 2 inputs was primarily determined using the market approach, which uses quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and all other relevant information. It includes model pricing, defined as valuing securities based upon their relationship with other benchmark securities.
Included in the Company’s AFS debt securities are certain corporate bonds which are classified as Level 3 assets at December 31, 2022. The valuation of these corporate bonds is determined using broker quotes, third-party vendor prices, or other valuation techniques, such as discounted cash flow techniques. Market inputs used in the other valuation techniques or underlying third-party vendor prices or broker quotes include benchmark and government bond yield curves, credit spreads, and trade execution data.

Equity Securities with Readily Determinable Fair Values
The fair value of equity securities is the market value based on quoted market prices, when available, or market prices provided by recognized broker dealers (Level 1). If listed prices or quotes are not available, fair value is based upon quoted market prices for similar or identical assets or other observable inputs (Level 2) or externally developed models that use unobservable inputs due to limited or no market activity of the instrument (Level 3).
As of December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Company’s equity securities portfolio was $
All of the Company’s equity securities were classified as Level 2 assets at December 31, 2022. The valuation of securities using Level 2 inputs was primarily determined using the market approach, which uses quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and all other relevant information.
There were no changes in the inputs or methodologies used to determine fair value during the period ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the period ended December 31, 2021.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements
The fair value of interest rate swap agreements is the market value based on quoted market prices, when available, or market prices provided by recognized broker dealers (Level 1). If listed prices or quotes are not available, fair value is based upon quoted market prices for similar or identical assets or other observable inputs (Level 2) or externally developed models that use unobservable inputs due to limited or no market activity of the instrument (Level 3).
The Company’s derivative instruments are classified as Level 2 assets, as the readily observable market inputs to these models are validated to external sources, such as industry pricing services, or are corroborated through recent trades, dealer quotes, yield curves, implied volatility or other market-related data.

Certain assets and liabilities 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). The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:
Impaired Collateral-Dependent Loans
The fair value of impaired collateral-dependent loans is derived in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 310, "Receivables." Fair value is determined based on the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral. Partially charged-off loans are measured for impairment based upon an appraisal for collateral-dependent loans. When an updated appraisal is received for a nonperforming loan, the value on the appraisal is discounted. If there is a deficiency in the value after the Company applies these discounts, management applies a specific reserve and the loan remains in nonaccrual status. The receipt of an updated appraisal would not qualify as a reason to put a loan back into accruing status. The Company removes loans from nonaccrual status generally when the borrower makes three months of contractual payments and demonstrates the ability to service the debt going forward. Charge-offs are determined based upon the loss that management believes the Company will incur after evaluating collateral for impairment based upon the valuation methods described above and the ability of the borrower to pay any deficiency.
The valuation allowance for impaired loans is included in the allowance for loan losses in the consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2022, the valuation allowance for impaired loans was $
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
FASB ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires the disclosure of the estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including those financial instruments for which the Company did not elect the fair value option. These estimated fair values as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 have been determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to develop estimates of fair value. The estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of alternative market assumptions and estimation methodologies could have had a material effect on these estimates of fair value. The methodology for estimating the fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis are discussed above.
91
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of other financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For these short-term instruments, the carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Securities
The fair value of securities is based upon quoted market prices for similar or identical assets or other observable inputs (Level 2) or externally developed models that use unobservable inputs due to limited or no market activity of the instrument (Level 3).
SBA Loans Held for Sale
The fair value of SBA loans held for sale is estimated by using a market approach that includes significant other observable inputs.
Loans
The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current market rates that reflect the interest rate risk inherent in the loan, except for previously discussed impaired loans.
Deposit Liabilities
The fair value of demand deposits and savings accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e. carrying value). The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current market rates.
Borrowed Funds and Subordinated Debentures
The fair value of borrowings is estimated by discounting the projected future cash flows using current market rates.
Standby Letters of Credit
At December 31, 2022, the Bank had standby letters of credit outstanding of $

Limitations
Fair value estimates are made at a point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
Fair value estimates are based on existing on- and off-statement of condition financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the effect of fair value estimates have not been considered in the above estimates.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors
Unity Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Unity Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the account or disclosures to which it relates.
96
Allowance for Loan Losses – Qualitative Factors
The allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2022, was $25.2 million. As described in Notes 1 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses and represents an amount which, in management’s judgment, will be adequate to absorb losses on existing loans. The allowance consists of specific and general components in the amounts of $1.8 million and $23.4 million, respectively. Specific reserves are made for individual impaired loans, which have been defined to include all nonperforming loans and troubled debt restructurings. The general reserve is set based upon a historical net charge-off rate adjusted for the following environmental factors: delinquency and impairment trends, charge-off and recovery trends, changes in the volume of restructured loans, volume and loan term trends, changes in risk and underwriting policy trends, staffing and experience changes, national and local economic trends, industry conditions and credit concentration changes. The evaluation of the qualitative factors requires a significant amount of judgment by management and involves a high degree of subjectivity.
We identified the qualitative factor component of the allowance for loan losses as a critical audit matter as auditing the underlying qualitative factors required significant auditor judgment as amounts determined by management rely on analysis that is highly subjective and includes significant estimation uncertainty.
Our audit procedures related to the qualitative factors included the following, among others:
- | We obtained an understanding of the relevant controls related to management’s assessment and review of the qualitative factors, and tested such controls for design and operating effectiveness, including controls over management’s establishment, review and approval of the qualitative factors and the data used in determining the qualitative factors. |
- | We obtained an understanding of how management developed the estimates and related assumptions, including: |
o | Testing completeness and accuracy of key data inputs used in forming assumptions or calculations and testing the reliability of the underlying data on which these factors are based by comparing information to source documents and external information sources. |
o | Evaluating the reasonableness of the qualitative factor established by management, including the directional consistency and magnitude, as compared to the underlying internal or external information sources. |
/s/
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2007.

DESCRIPTION OF THE REGISTRANT’S SECURITIES
REGISTERED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12 OF THE
SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934
As of December 31, 2022, Unity Bancorp, Inc. (“Unity”), the registrant and the registered banking holding Company or Unity Bank (“Unity Bank”) had one class of security registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our common stock, no par value per share (“Common Stock”).
Description of Capital Stock
We are authorized by our certificate of incorporation to issue 12,500,000 shares of common stock, no par value per share, and 500,000 shares of preferred stock, the terms, rights and features of which are determined by our Board of Directors upon issuance. As of the date hereof, we have 10,584,375 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.
Common Stock
The following description contains certain general terms of Unity’s common stock.
Dividend Rights
The holders of Unity’s common stock are entitled to dividends when, as, and if declared by the Unity board of directors out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. Generally, New Jersey law prohibits corporations from paying dividends or any other distributions to shareholders, if after giving effect to the distribution, either the corporation would be unable to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of its business or the corporation’s total assets would be less than its total liabilities.
The primary source of dividends paid to the Unity’s shareholders is dividends paid to Unity by Unity Bank. Thus, as a practical matter, any restrictions on the ability of Unity Bank to pay dividends will act as restrictions on the amount of funds available for payment of dividends by Unity. Under the New Jersey Banking Act of 1948, as amended, dividends may be paid by Unity Bank only if, after the payment of each such dividend, the capital stock of Unity Bank will be unimpaired and either Unity Bank will have a surplus of not less than 50% of its capital stock or the payment of such dividend will not reduce Unity Bank’s surplus. The payment of dividends is also dependent upon the Bank’s ability to maintain adequate capital ratios pursuant to applicable regulatory requirements. In addition to these explicit limitations, the federal regulatory agencies are authorized to prohibit a banking subsidiary or bank holding company from engaging in an unsafe or unsound banking practice. Depending upon the circumstances, the agencies could take the position that paying a dividend would constitute an unsafe or unsound banking practice.
The dividend rights of holders of Unity’s common stock are qualified and subject to the dividend rights of holders of Unity’s preferred stock that may be issued in the future as described below in the section titled “Preferred Stock”.
Voting Rights
Each holder of Unity’s common stock is entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters voted upon by the shareholders, including the election of directors. There is no cumulative voting in the election of directors.
Preemptive Rights
Holders of shares of Unity’s common stock are not entitled to preemptive rights with respect to any shares of the common stock that may be issued.
Liquidation Rights
In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of Unity, subject to the rights and preferences, if any, of the holders of preferred stock, holders of Unity’s common stock are entitled to share, ratably in proportion to the number of shares of common stock held by them, in the remaining assets of Unity available for distribution to its shareholders.
Assessment and Redemption
All outstanding shares of Unity’s common stock are fully paid and non-assessable. Unity’s common stock is not redeemable at the option of the issuer or the holders thereof.
Transfer Agent
Computershare is presently the transfer agent for Unity’s common stock.
Listing
Unity’s common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “UNTY”.
Preferred Stock
Unity has 500,000 authorized shares of preferred stock typically referred to as “blank check” preferred stock. This term refers to stock for which the rights and restrictions are determined by the board of directors of a corporation. Unity’s certificate of incorporation authorizes Unity’s Board of Directors to issue new shares of Unity’s preferred stock without further shareholder action.
Unity’s certificate of incorporation gives the board of directors of Unity authority to issue preferred stock from time to time in one or more classes or series thereof, each such class or series to have voting powers (if any), conversion rights (if any), designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, as shall be determined by the board of directors of Unity and stated and expressed in a resolution or resolutions thereof providing for the issuance of such preferred stock.
With respect to any class or series of preferred stock, Unity’s certificate of incorporation allows the board of directors of Unity at any time to determine:
● | the dividend rate on shares of such class or series and any restrictions, limitations or conditions upon the payment of such dividends, and whether dividends are cumulative, and the dates on which dividends, if declared, would be payable; |
● | whether the shares of such class or series would be redeemable and, if so, the terms of redemption; |
● | the rights of holders of shares of such class or series in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Unity, whether voluntary or involuntary, or any other distribution of its assets; |
● | whether the shares of such class or series would be subject to the operation of a purchase, retirement or sinking fund and, if so, the terms and conditions thereof; |
● | whether the shares of such class or series would be convertible into shares of any other class or series of the same or any other class, and if so, the terms of such conversion; and |
● | the extent of voting powers, if any, of the shares of such class or series. |
The issuance of additional common or preferred stock may be viewed as having adverse effects upon the holders of common stock. Holders of Unity’s common stock do not have preemptive rights with respect to any newly issued stock. Unity’s board could adversely affect the voting power of holders of Unity’s common stock by issuing shares of preferred stock with certain voting, conversion and/or redemption rights. In the event of a proposed merger, tender offer or other attempt to gain control of Unity that the board does not believe to be in the best interests of its shareholders, the board could issue additional preferred stock which could make any such takeover attempt more difficult to complete. Blank check preferred stock may also be used in connection with the issuance of a shareholder rights plan, sometimes called a poison pill.
Anti-Takeover Provisions
The provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and the New Jersey corporation law summarized in the following paragraphs may be deemed to have anti-takeover effects and may delay, defer, or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a shareholder might consider to be in such shareholder's best interest, including those attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares held by shareholders, and may make removal of management more difficult.
Authorized but Unissued Stock
The authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock will be available for future issuance without shareholder approval. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions, and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved shares of common and preferred stock may enable our Board of Directors to issue shares to persons friendly to current management, which could render more difficult or discourage any attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise, and thereby protect the continuity of our management.
Number of Directors
Our current board is comprised of 10 directors. Our certificate of incorporation currently provides that the Board of Directors shall consist of not less than 1 or more than 16 directors. The number of directors may be amended only by the affirmative vote of a majority of directors then in office or the affirmative vote of shareholders owning at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares entitled to vote.
Classified Board of Directors
Our certificate of incorporation divides the Board of Directors into three classes of directors serving staggered three- year terms. As a result, approximately one-third of the Board of Directors will be elected at each annual meeting of shareholders. The classification of directors will have the effect of making it more difficult for shareholders to change the composition of the Board of Directors. As a result, at least two annual meetings of shareholders may be required for the shareholders to change a majority of the directors, whether or not a change in the Board of Directors would be beneficial to the Company and its shareholders and whether or not a majority of the Company’s shareholders believes that such a change would be desirable.
Bank Regulatory Requirements
Under the Federal Change in Bank Control Act (the “Control Act”), a 60 day prior written notice must be submitted to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“FRB”) if any person, or any group acting in concert, seeks to acquire 10% or more of any class of outstanding voting securities of a bank holding company, unless the FRB determines that the acquisition will not result in a change of control. Under the Control Act, the FRB has 60 days within which to act on such notice taking into consideration certain factors, including the financial and managerial resources of the acquirer, the convenience and needs of the community served by the bank holding company and its subsidiary banks and the antitrust effects of the acquisition. Under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (‘BHCA”), a company is generally required to obtain prior approval of the FRB before it may obtain control of a bank holding company. Under the BHCA, control is generally described to mean the beneficial ownership of 25% or more of the outstanding voting securities of a company, although a presumption of control may exist if a party beneficially owns 10% or more of the outstanding voting securities of a company and certain other circumstances are present.
New Jersey Shareholders Protection Act
A provision of New Jersey law, the New Jersey Shareholders’Protection Act (the “Shareholders’Protection Act”), prohibits certain transactions involving an “interested stockholder” and a resident domestic corporation. When used in reference to any such corporation, an “interested stockholder” is generally defined as one who is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting stock of that corporation or who is an affiliate or associate of that corporation and at any time within the five-year period immediately prior to the date in question was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the voting power of the then outstanding stock of that corporation.
The Shareholders’ Protection Act generally prohibits any business combination between an interested stockholder and a resident domestic corporation for a period of five years following that interested stockholder’s stock acquisition date unless: (a) that business combination is approved by the corporation’s board of directors prior to that interested stockholder’s stock acquisition date or (b) the transaction(s) which caused the person to become an interested stockholder was approved by the corporation’s board of directors prior to that interested stockholder’s stock acquisition date and any subsequent business combinations with that interested stockholder are approved by the corporation’s board of directors, provided that any such subsequent business combination is approved by (1) the board of directors, or a committee thereof, consisting solely of persons who are not employees, officers, directors, stockholders, affiliates or associates of that interested stockholder, and (2) the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting stock not beneficially owned by such interested stockholder at a meeting called for such purpose. After the five-year period expires, the prohibition on business combinations with an interested stockholder continues unless certain conditions are met. Subject to further limitations, these conditions include: (a) a business combination approved by the corporation’s board of directors prior to that interested stockholder’s stock acquisition date; (b) a business combination approved by a vote of two-thirds of the voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder; (c) a business combination whereby its shareholders receive consideration in accordance with the Shareholders’ Protection Act; and (d) a business combination approved by the corporation’s board of directors, or a committee thereof, consisting solely of persons who are not employees, officers, directors, stockholders, affiliates or associates of that interested stockholder prior to the consummation of the business combination and by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting stock not beneficially owned by such interested stockholder at a meeting called for such purpose if the transaction(s) with the interested stockholder which caused the person to become an interested stockholder was approved by the corporation’s board of directors prior to the consummation of such transaction(s).

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Overview The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Unity Bancorp, Inc. (the “Parent Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Unity Bank (the “Bank” or when consolidated with the Parent Company, the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Unity Bancorp, Inc. is a bank holding company incorporated in New Jersey and registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. Its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Bank, is chartered by the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance. The Bank provides a full range of commercial and retail banking services through nineteen branch offices located in Bergen, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Ocean, Somerset, Union and Warren counties in New Jersey and Northampton County in Pennsylvania. These services include the acceptance of demand, savings and time deposits and the extension of consumer, real estate, Small Business Administration (“SBA”) and other commercial credits. Unity Investment Services, Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Unity Bank and is used to hold and administer part of the Bank’s investment portfolio. Unity Investment Services, Inc. has one subsidiary, Unity Delaware Investment 2, Inc., which has one subsidiary, Unity NJ REIT, Inc., which was formed in 2013 to hold real estate related loans. The Company has two wholly-owned subsidiaries: Unity (NJ) Statutory Trust II and Unity Risk Management, Inc. For additional information on Unity (NJ) Statutory Trust II, see Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Unity Risk Management, Inc. is the Company’s captive insurance company that insures risks to the Bank not insured by the traditional commercial insurance market. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial conditions and results of operations for the periods indicated. Amounts requiring the use of significant estimates include the allowance for loan losses, valuation of deferred tax and servicing assets, the carrying value of loans held for sale, other real estate owned, the valuation of securities and the determination of other-than-temporary impairment for securities and fair value disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Risks and Uncertainties On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected local, national and global economic activity. Although, the economy has generally improved since March 2020, there still remains much uncertainty around the containment of the pandemic and the trajectory of the broader economic recovery. The Company continues to be subject to heightened business, operational (including fraud), market, credit and other risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic environment and changes in which people work and shop originating from the pandemic, which may have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. On July 27, 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced that it will no longer persuade or compel banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR to the LIBOR administrator after 2021. The announcement also indicates that the continuation of LIBOR on the current basis cannot and will not be guaranteed after 2021, although LIBOR rates of certain tenors may be published until June 2023. Consequently, at this time, it is not possible to predict whether and to what extent banks will continue to provide LIBOR submissions to the LIBOR administrator or whether any additional reforms to LIBOR may be enacted in the United Kingdom or elsewhere. Similarly, it is not possible to predict whether LIBOR will continue to be viewed as an acceptable benchmark for certain loans and liabilities until LIBOR becomes unavailable, including the Company’s subordinated notes, or the effect of any such changes in views or alternatives on the values of the loans and liabilities, whose interest rates are tied to LIBOR. Uncertainty as to the nature of such potential changes, the elimination and replacement of LIBOR or other reforms may adversely affect the value of, and the return on the Company's loans, and its investment securities. Overall, the markets and customers serviced by the Company may be significantly impacted by the ongoing macro-economic trends, such as inflation and recessionary pressures created by a higher interest rate environment. The Company assesses the impact of inflation on an ongoing basis and the impacts of inflation may have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks and interest-bearing deposits. Securities The Company classifies its securities into three categories, debt securities available for sale, debt securities held to maturity and equity securities with readily determinable fair values ("equity securities"). Debt securities that are classified as available for sale are stated at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale are excluded from results of operations and are reported as other comprehensive income, a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of taxes. Debt securities classified as available for sale include debt securities that may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, changes in prepayment risks or for asset/liability management purposes or liquidity needs. The cost of debt securities sold is determined on a specific identification basis. Gains and losses on sales of debt securities are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income on a trade date basis. Debt securities are classified as held to maturity based on management’s intent and ability to hold them to maturity. Such debt securities are stated at cost, adjusted for unamortized purchase premiums and discounts using the level yield method. Equity securities are investments carried at fair value that may be sold in response to changing market and interest rate conditions or for other business purposes. Activity in this portfolio is undertaken primarily to manage liquidity and interest rate risk, to take advantage of market conditions that create economically attractive returns and as an additional source of earnings. Periodic net gains and losses on equity investments are recognized in the income statement as realized gains and losses. For additional information on securities, see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Other-Than-Temporary Impairment The Company has a process in place to identify debt securities that could potentially incur credit impairment that is other-than-temporary. This process involves monitoring late payments, pricing levels, downgrades by rating agencies, key financial ratios, financial statements, revenue forecasts and cash flow projections as indicators of credit issues. Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis and more frequently when economic or market concern warrants such evaluation. This evaluation considers relevant facts and circumstances in evaluating whether a credit or interest rate-related impairment of a security is other-than-temporary. Relevant facts and circumstances considered include: (1) the extent and length of time the fair value has been below cost; (2) the reasons for the decline in value; (3) the financial position and access to capital of the issuer, including the current and future impact of any specific events and (4) for fixed maturity securities, the intent to sell a security or whether it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the security before the recovery of its amortized cost which, in some cases, may extend to maturity. Management assesses its intent to sell or whether it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell a security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period credit losses. For debt securities that are considered other-than-temporarily impaired where management has no intent to sell and the Company has no requirement to sell prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis, the amount of the impairment is separated into the amount that is credit related (credit loss component) and the amount due to all other factors. The credit loss component is recognized in earnings and is the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and the present value of its expected future cash flows. The remaining difference between the security’s fair value and the present value of future expected cash flows is due to factors that are not credit related and is recognized in other comprehensive income. For debt securities where management has the intent to sell, the amount of the impairment is reflected in earnings as realized losses. The present value of expected future cash flows is determined using the best estimate cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate implicit to the security at the date of purchase or the current yield to accrete an asset-backed or floating rate security. The methodology and assumptions for establishing the best estimate cash flows vary depending on the type of security. The asset-backed securities cash flow estimates are based on bond specific facts and circumstances that may include collateral characteristics, expectations of delinquency and default rates, loss severity and prepayment speeds and structural support, including subordination and guarantees. The corporate bond cash flow estimates are derived from scenario-based outcomes of expected corporate restructurings or the disposition of assets using bond specific facts and circumstances including timing, security interests and loss severity. Transfers of Financial Assets Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity. Loans Loans Held for Sale Loans held for sale represent the guaranteed portion of certain SBA loans, other than loans originated under the Paycheck Protection Program, and are reflected at the lower of aggregate cost or market value. The Company originates loans to customers under an SBA program that historically has provided for SBA guarantees of up to 90 percent of each loan. The Company may sell the guaranteed portion of its SBA loans to a third party and retains the servicing, holding the nonguaranteed portion in its portfolio. The net amount of loan origination fees on loans sold is included in the carrying value and in the gain or loss on the sale. When sales of SBA loans do occur, the premium received on the sale and the present value of future cash flows of the servicing assets are recognized in income. All criteria for sale accounting must be met in order for the loan sales to occur; see details under the “Transfers of Financial Assets” heading above. Servicing assets represent the estimated fair value of retained servicing rights, net of servicing costs, at the time loans are sold. Servicing assets are amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing revenues. Impairment is evaluated based on stratifying the underlying financial assets by date of origination and term. Fair value is determined using prices for similar assets with similar characteristics, when available, or based upon discounted cash flows using market-based assumptions. Any impairment, if temporary, would generally be reported as a valuation allowance. Serviced loans sold to others are not included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Income and fees collected for loan servicing are credited to noninterest income when earned, net of amortization on the related servicing assets. For additional information on servicing assets, see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Loans Held for Investment Loans held for investment are stated at the unpaid principal balance, net of unearned discounts and deferred loan origination fees and costs. In accordance with the level yield method, loan origination fees, net of direct loan origination costs, are deferred and recognized over the estimated life of the related loans as an adjustment to the loan yield. Interest is credited to operations primarily based upon the principal balance outstanding. Loans are reported as past due when either interest or principal is unpaid in the following circumstances: fixed payment loans when the borrower is in arrears for two or more monthly payments; open end credit for two or more billing cycles; and single payment notes if interest or principal remains unpaid for 30 days or more. Nonperforming loans consist of loans that are not accruing interest as a result of principal or interest being delinquent for a period of 90 days or more or when the ability to collect principal and interest according to the contractual terms is in doubt (nonaccrual loans). When a loan is classified as nonaccrual, interest accruals are discontinued and all past due interest previously recognized as income is reversed and charged against current period earnings. Generally, until the loan becomes current, any payments received from the borrower are applied to outstanding principal until such time as management determines that the financial condition of the borrower and other factors merit recognition of a portion of such payments as interest income. Loans may be returned to an accrual status when the ability to collect is reasonably assured and when the loan is brought current as to principal and interest. Loans are charged off when collection is sufficiently questionable and when the Company can no longer justify maintaining the loan as an asset on the balance sheet. Loans qualify for charge-off when, after thorough analysis, all possible sources of repayment are insufficient. These include: 1) potential future cash flows, 2) value of collateral, and/or 3) strength of co-makers and guarantors. All unsecured loans are charged off upon the establishment of the loan’s nonaccrual status. Additionally, all loans classified as a loss or that portion of the loan classified as a loss is charged off. All loan charge-offs are approved by executive management and the Board of Directors. Troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") occur when a creditor, for economic or legal reasons related to a debtor’s financial condition, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. These concessions typically include reductions in interest rate, extending the maturity of a loan, or a combination of both. Interest income on accruing TDRs is credited to operations primarily based upon the principal amount outstanding, as stated in the paragraphs above. The Company evaluates its loans for impairment. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Company has defined impaired loans to be all TDRs and nonperforming loans individually evaluated for impairment. Impairment of a loan is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or as a practical expedient, based on a loan’s observable market price or the fair value of collateral, net of estimated costs to sell, if the loan is collateral-dependent. If the value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the Company establishes a valuation allowance, or adjusts existing valuation allowances, with a corresponding charge to the provision for loan losses. For additional information on loans, see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Allowance for Loan Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Loan Commitments The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level management considers adequate to provide for probable loan losses as of the balance sheet date. The allowance is increased by provisions charged to expense and is reduced by net charge-offs. The level of the allowance is based on management’s evaluation of probable losses in the loan portfolio, after consideration of prevailing economic conditions in the Company’s market area, the volume and composition of the loan portfolio and historical loan loss experience. The allowance for loan losses consists of specific reserves for individually impaired credits and TDRs, reserves for nonimpaired loans based on historical loss factors adjusted for general economic factors and other qualitative risk factors such as changes in delinquency trends, industry concentrations or local/national economic trends. This risk assessment process is performed at least quarterly and, as adjustments become necessary, they are realized in the periods in which they become known. Although management attempts to maintain the allowance at a level deemed adequate to provide for probable losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based upon certain factors including changes in market conditions and underlying collateral values. In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically review the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for loan losses. These agencies may require the Company to make additional provisions based on their judgments about information available at the time of the examination. The Company maintains a reserve for unfunded loan commitments at a level that management believes is adequate to absorb estimated probable losses. Adjustments to the reserve are made through other expenses and applied to the reserve which is classified as other liabilities. For additional information on the allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded loan commitments, see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Premises and Equipment, net Land is carried at cost. All other fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The useful life of buildings is not to exceed 30 years; furniture and fixtures is generally 10 years or less, and equipment is 3 to 5 years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the life of the underlying lease. For additional information on premises and equipment, see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Bank Owned Life Insurance The Company purchased life insurance policies on certain members of management. Bank owned life insurance is recorded at its cash surrender value or the amount that can be realized. Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) Stock Federal law requires a member institution of the Federal Home Loan Bank system to hold stock of its district FHLB according to a predetermined formula. The stock is carried at cost. Management reviews the stock for impairment based on the ultimate recoverability of the cost basis in the stock. The stock’s value is determined by the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines. Management considers such criteria as the significance of the decline in net assets, if any, of the FHLB, the length of time this situation has persisted, commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation, the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on the customer base of the FHLB and the liquidity position of the FHLB. Accrued Interest Receivable Accrued interest receivable consists of amounts earned on investments and loans. The Company recognizes accrued interest receivable as it is earned. Other Real Estate Owned Other real estate owned (“OREO”) is recorded at the fair value, less estimated costs to sell at the date of acquisition, with a charge to the allowance for loan losses for any excess of the loan carrying value over such amount. Subsequently, OREO is carried at the lower of cost or fair value, as determined by current appraisals. Certain costs that increase the value or extend the useful life in preparing properties for sale are capitalized to the extent that the appraisal amount exceeds the carrying value and expenses of holding foreclosed properties are charged to operations as incurred. Goodwill The Company accounts for goodwill and other intangible assets in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,” which allows an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. Based on a qualitative assessment, management determined that the Company’s recorded goodwill totaling $1.5 million, which resulted from the 2005 acquisition of its Phillipsburg, New Jersey branch, is not impaired as of December 31, 2022. Appraisals All appraisals must be performed in accordance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (“USPAP”). Appraisals are certified to the Company and performed by appraisers on the Company’s approved list of appraisers. Evaluations are completed by a person independent of Company management. The content of the appraisal depends on the complexity of the property. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities The Company utilizes derivative instruments in the form of interest rate swaps to hedge its exposure to interest rate risk in conjunction with its overall asset and liability risk management process. In accordance with accounting requirements, the Company formally designates all of its hedging relationships as either fair value hedges or cash flow hedges. The Company’s derivative instruments currently consist of cash flow hedges. The Company recognizes all derivative instruments at fair value as either Other assets or Other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and the related cash flows in the Operating Activities section of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. For derivatives designated cash flow hedges (i.e., hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows), the gain or loss on the derivative is reported in other comprehensive income and is reclassified into earnings in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Those derivative financial instruments that do not meet the hedging criteria discussed below would be classified as undesignated derivatives and would be recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in income. The Company discontinues hedge accounting when (a) it determines that a derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of a hedged item; (b) the derivative expires or is sold, terminated or exercised; (c) probability exists that the forecasted transaction will no longer occur; or (d) management determines that designating the derivative as a hedging instrument is no longer appropriate. In all cases in which hedge accounting is discontinued and a derivative remains outstanding, the Company will carry the derivative at fair value in the Consolidated Financial Statements, recognizing changes in fair value in current period income in the consolidated statement of income. For additional information on derivative instruments and hedging activities, see Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Income Taxes The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("FASB ASC") Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which prescribes a threshold for the financial statement recognition of income taxes and provides criteria for the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also includes guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition of income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates applicable to taxable income for the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation reserves are established against certain deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Increases or decreases in the valuation reserve are charged or credited to the income tax provision. When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that ultimately would be sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. The evaluation of a tax position taken is considered by itself and not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are recognized in income tax expense on the income statement. For additional information on income taxes, see Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Net Income Per Share Basic net income per common share is calculated as net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted net income per common share is computed similarly to that of basic net income per common share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common shares, principally stock options, were issued during the reporting period utilizing the Treasury stock method. However, when a net loss rather than net income is recognized, diluted earnings per share equals basic earnings per share. For additional information on net income per share, see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation awards in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation,” which requires recognition of compensation expense related to stock-based compensation awards over the period during which an employee is required to provide service for the award. Compensation expense is equal to the fair value of the award, net of estimated forfeitures, and is recognized over the vesting period of such awards. For additional information on the Company’s stock-based compensation, see Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Fair Value The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures,” which provides a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles. For additional information on the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, see Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Other Comprehensive Income (Losses) Other comprehensive income (loss) consists of the change in unrealized gains (losses) on SERP, securities available for sale and derivative related items that were reported as a component of shareholders’ equity, net of tax. For additional information on other comprehensive income (loss), see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Dividend Restrictions Banking regulations require maintaining certain capital levels that may limit the dividends paid by the Bank to the holding company or by the holding company to the shareholders. Operating Segments While management monitors the revenue streams of its various products and services, operating results and financial performance are evaluated on a company-wide basis. The Company’s management uses consolidated results to make operating and strategic decisions. Accordingly, there is only one reportable segment. Recent Accounting Pronouncements ASU 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." ASU 2020-04 provides temporary optional guidance intended to ease the burden of reference rate reform on financial reporting. The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying existing guidance to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions that are expected to be affected by reference rate reform and meet certain scope guidance. ASU 2020-04 provides various optional expedients, including the following, for hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met:
In addition, ASU 2020-04 permits an entity to make a one-time election to sell, transfer or both sell and transfer debt securities classified as held to maturity that reference a rate affected by reference rate reform and that were classified as held to maturity before January 1, 2020. ASU 2020-04 was effective upon its issuance on March 12, 2020. However, it cannot be applied to contract modifications that occur after December 31, 2022. With certain exceptions, the ASU also cannot be applied to hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after that date. The company is currently evaluating the various optional expedients as well as impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-04 on its consolidated financial statements. ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope.” ASU 2021-01 was issued to clarify certain optional expedients and exceptions in ASC 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting applied to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transaction. In addition, the ASU clarifies that a receive-variable-rate, pay-variable-rate cross-currency interest rate swap may be considered eligible as a hedging instrument in a net investment hedge if both legs of the swap do not have the same repricing intervals and dates as a result of the reference rate reform. ASU 2021-01 became effective January 7, 2021. The Company currently uses the shortcut method as the practical expedient. ASU 2022-06, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)”: provides optional guidance to ease potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting during the transition period. The Board included a sunset provision within Topic 848 based on expectations of when the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) would cease being published. At the time that Updated 2020-04 was issued, the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) had established its intent that it would no longer be necessary to persuade, or compel, banks to submit to LIBOR after December 31, 2021. As a result, the sunset provision was set for December 31, 2022 – 12 months after the expected cessation date of all currencies and tenors of LIBOR. Because the current relief in Topic 848 may not cover a period during which a significant number of modifications may take place, the amendments in this update defer the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 21, 2022, to December 31, 2024, after which entities will no longer be permitted to apply the relief in Topic 848. New Accounting Guidance Adopted in the First Quarter 2023 ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” amends the accounting guidance regarding the impairment of financial instruments. The FASB issued this guidance to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology with a new current credit loss (“CECL”) model. Under the new guidance, the Company will be required to measure expected credit losses by utilizing forward-looking information to assess its allowance for credit losses. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. The measurement of expected credit losses under CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loans and held to maturity debt securities. CECL also applies to certain off-balance sheet exposures. The Company will adopt the new CECL accounting guidance effective January 1, 2023, using the modified retrospective approach for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures. The Company has established a governance structure to implement the CECL accounting guidance and has developed a methodology and set of models to be used upon adoption. At December 31, 2022, the Company’s loan portfolio totaled, $2.1 billion with a corresponding allowance for loan losses of $25.2 million under current GAAP. Based on the Company’s current CECL model results that it has performed alongside the current process, the Company estimates that the adoption of the new guidance will result in an increase to the allowance for credit losses, including the reserve for off-balance sheet credit exposure (recorded in other liabilities) between $0.5 million to $1.0 million. For other assets within the scope of the new CECL accounting guidance, such as held to maturity debt securities and other receivables, management expects the impact from adoption to be inconsequential. Additionally, the Company does not expect the adoption of CECL to have significant impact on regulatory capital ratios of the Company and/or the Bank. The Company is reviewing the performance of its most recent model run. As the Company finalizes the CECL implementation, final decisions made by management may result in a different impact than that stated above for financial statement and disclosure purposes. ASU 2020-03, "Codification Improvement to Financial Instruments." ASU 2020-03 clarifies that all entities are required to provide the fair value option disclosures in paragraphs 825-10-50-24 through 50-32 of the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). ASU 2020-03 also clarifies that the contractual term of a net investment in a lease determined in accordance with ASC 842, “Leases,” should be the contractual term used to measure expected credit losses under ASC 326, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.” ASU 2020-03 also addresses amendments to ASC 860-20, “Transfers and Servicing – Sales of Financial Assets,” to clarify that when an entity regains control of financial assets sold, an allowance for credit losses should be recorded in accordance with ASC 326. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendment are the same as the effective date and transition requirements in ASU 2016-13. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-03 on its consolidated financial statements. ASU 2022-01, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)”: ASU 2022-01 was issued to clarify the guidance in ACS 815 on fair value hedge accounting of interest rate risk for portfolios and financial assets. Among other things, the amended guidance established the “last-of-layer” method for making the fair value hedge accounting for these portfolios more accessible and renamed that method the portfolio the “portfolio layer” method. ASU 2022-01 is effective January 1, 2023 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326)”: eliminates the guidance on troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) and requires entities to evaluate all loan modifications to determine if they result in a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. ASU 2022-02 requires that entities disclose if they result in a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. ASU 2022-02 also requires that entities disclose current-period gross charge-offs by year of origination for loans and leases. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2022-02 on its consolidated financial statements. Revenue Recognition ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied. The majority of the Company’s revenue-generating transactions are not subject to ASC 606, including revenue generated from financial instruments, such as loans, letters of credit, derivatives and investment securities, as well as revenue related to mortgage servicing activities, as these activities are subject to other GAAP discussed elsewhere within the Company’s disclosures. Descriptions of the Company’s revenue-generating activities that are within the scope of ASC 606, which are presented in its income statements as components of non-interest income are as follows:
Subsequent Events The Company has evaluated all events or transactions that occurred through the date the Company issued these financial statements. During this period, the Company did not have any material recognizable or non-recognizable subsequent events. Restrictions on Cash Federal law required depository institutions to hold reserves in the form of vault cash or, if vault cash is insufficient, in the form of a deposit maintained with a Federal Reserve Bank. In response to COVID-19, on March 15, 2020, the FRB announced the reduction of the reserve requirement ratios to zero percent, effective March 26, 2020. This action eliminated the reserve requirement for depository institutions to help support lending to households and businesses. In addition, the Company’s contract with its current electronic funds transfer (“EFT”) provider requires a predetermined balance be maintained in a settlement account controlled by the provider equal to the Company’s average daily net settlement position multiplied by four days. The required balance was $262 thousand and $156 thousand as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This balance can be adjusted periodically to reflect actual transaction volume and seasonal factors. |

Loans | 3. Loans The following table sets forth the classification of loans by class, including unearned fees, deferred costs and excluding the allowance for loan losses for the past two years:
Loans are made to individuals as well as commercial entities. Specific loan terms vary as to interest rate, repayment and collateral requirements based on the type of loan requested and the credit worthiness of the prospective borrower. Credit risk tends to be geographically concentrated in that a majority of the loan customers are located in the markets serviced by the Bank. Loan performance may be adversely affected by factors impacting the general economy or conditions specific to the real estate market such as geographic location and/or property type. A description of the Company’s different loan segments follows: SBA Loans: SBA 7(a) loans, on which the SBA has historically provided guarantees of up to 90 percent of the principal balance, are considered a higher risk loan product for the Company than its other loan products. The guaranteed portion of the Company’s SBA loans is generally sold in the secondary market with the nonguaranteed portion held in the portfolio as a loan held for investment. SBA loans are for the purpose of providing working capital, financing the purchase of equipment, inventory or commercial real estate and for other business purposes. Loans are guaranteed by the businesses’ major owners. SBA loans are made based primarily on the historical and projected cash flow of the business and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided. On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was signed into law. It contained substantial tax and spending provisions intended to address the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act included a range of other provisions designed to support the U.S. economy and mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on financial institutions and their customers, including through the authorization of various relief programs and measures that the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the Small Business Administration, the Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”) and other federal banking agencies have implemented or may implement. The CARES Act provided assistance to small businesses through the establishment of the SBA Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). The PPP provided eligible small businesses with funds to pay up to 24 weeks of payroll costs, including certain benefits. The funds were provided in the form of loans that may be fully or partially forgiven when used for payroll costs, interest on mortgages, rent or utilities. The payments on these loans were deferred for up to six months. Loans made after June 5, 2020, mature in five years, and loans made prior to June 5, 2020, mature in two years but can be extended to five years if the lender agrees. Forgiveness of the PPP loans is based on the borrower maintaining or quickly rehiring employees and maintaining salary levels. Applications for the PPP loans started on April 3, 2020 and were extended through August 8, 2020. The Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Nonprofits and Venues Act (the “Economic Aid Act”) became law on December 27, 2020. Among other things, the Economic Aid Act extended the PPP through March 31, 2021 and allocated additional funds for new PPP loans, to be guaranteed by the SBA. The extension included an authorization to make new PPP loans to existing PPP loan borrowers, and to make loans to parties that did not previously obtain a PPP loan. Loans originated under the extended PPP had substantially the same terms as existing PPP loans. As an existing SBA 7(a) lender, the Company opted to participate in the program. Commercial Loans: Commercial credit is extended primarily to middle market and small business customers. Commercial loans are generally made in the Company’s market place for the purpose of providing working capital, financing the purchase of equipment, inventory or commercial real estate and for other business purposes. The SBA 504 program consists of real estate backed commercial mortgages where the Company has the first mortgage and the SBA has the second mortgage on the property. Loans are generally guaranteed in full or for a meaningful amount by the businesses’ major owners. Commercial loans are made based primarily on the historical and projected cash flow of the business and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided. Residential Mortgage, Consumer and Residential Construction Loans: The Company originates mortgage and consumer loans including principally residential real estate, home equity lines and loans and residential construction lines. The Company originates qualified mortgages which are generally sold in the secondary market and nonqualified mortgages which are generally held for investment. Each loan type is evaluated on debt to income, type of collateral, loan to collateral value, credit history and Company relationship with the borrower. In 2021, the Company enrolled in the “Upgrade Consumer Unsecured Loan Program” to purchase consumer unsecured loans. This loan product has a fixed rate, fully amortizing term for up to five years and a maximum loan amount of $50 thousand. Restrictions were placed on the loans purchased to limit the purchases to borrowers residing in New Jersey, southern New York, and eastern Pennsylvania and to limit purchases to borrowers with higher credit quality with a 700 FICO minimum. Upgrade services the loans on behalf of the Company. Upgrade is a financial technology company that utilizes artificial intelligence to underwrite personal loans and credit card installment loans to retail customers, in addition to credit monitoring and education tools. Inherent in the lending function is credit risk, which is the possibility a borrower may not perform in accordance with the contractual terms of their loan. A borrower’s inability to pay their obligations according to the contractual terms can create the risk of past due loans and, ultimately, credit losses, especially on collateral deficient loans. The Company minimizes its credit risk by loan diversification and adhering to credit administration policies and procedures. Due diligence on loans begins when the Company initiates contact regarding a loan with a borrower. Documentation, including a borrower’s credit history, materials establishing the value and liquidity of potential collateral, the purpose of the loan, the source of funds for repayment of the loan and other factors, are analyzed before a loan is submitted for approval. The loan portfolio is then subject to on-going internal reviews for credit quality, as well as independent credit reviews by an outside firm. The Company’s extension of credit is governed by the Credit Risk Policy which was established to control the quality of the Company’s loans. These policies and procedures are reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors on a regular basis. Credit Ratings For SBA 7(a) and commercial loans, management uses internally assigned risk ratings as the best indicator of credit quality. A loan’s internal risk rating is reviewed at least annually and more frequently if circumstances warrant a change in risk rating. The Company uses a 1 through 10 loan grading system that follows regulatory accepted definitions. Pass: Risk ratings of 1 through 6 are used for loans that are performing, as they meet, and are expected to continue to meet, all of the terms and conditions set forth in the original loan documentation, and are generally current on principal and interest payments. These performing loans are termed “Pass”. Special Mention: Criticized loans are assigned a risk rating of 7 and termed “Special Mention”, as the borrowers exhibit potential credit weaknesses or downward trends deserving management’s close attention. If not checked or corrected, these trends will weaken the Bank’s collateral and position. While potentially weak, these borrowers are currently marginally acceptable and no loss of interest or principal is anticipated. As a result, special mention assets do not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. Included in “Special Mention” could be turnaround situations, such as borrowers with deteriorating trends beyond one year, borrowers in start up or deteriorating industries, or borrowers with a poor market share in an average industry. "Special Mention" loans may include an element of asset quality, financial flexibility or below average management. Management and ownership may have limited depth or experience. Regulatory agencies have agreed on a consistent definition of “Special Mention” as an asset with potential weaknesses which, if left uncorrected, may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Bank’s credit position at some future date. This definition is intended to ensure that the “Special Mention” category is not used to identify assets that have as their sole weakness credit data exceptions or collateral documentation exceptions that are not material to the repayment of the asset. Substandard: Classified loans are assigned a risk rating of an 8 or 9, depending upon the prospect for collection, and deemed “Substandard”. A risk rating of 8 is used for borrowers with well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the orderly liquidation of debt. The loan is inadequately protected by the current paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged, if any. Normal repayment from the borrower is in jeopardy, although no loss of principal is envisioned. There is a distinct possibility that a partial loss of interest and/or principal will occur if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard assets, does not have to exist in individual assets classified “Substandard”. A risk rating of 9 is used for borrowers that have all the weaknesses inherent in a loan with a risk rating of 8, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection of debt in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. Serious problems exist to the point where partial loss of principal is likely. The possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important, reasonably specific pending factors that may work to strengthen the assets, the loan’s classification as loss is deferred until a more exact status may be determined. Pending factors include proposed merger, acquisition or liquidation procedures; capital injection; perfecting liens on additional collateral; and refinancing plans. Partial charge-offs are likely. Loss: Once a borrower is deemed incapable of repayment of unsecured debt, the risk rating becomes a 10, the loan is termed a “Loss” and charged-off immediately. Loans to such borrowers are considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as active assets of the Bank is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the loan has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off these basically worthless assets even though partial recovery may occur in the future. For residential mortgage, consumer and residential construction loans, management uses performing versus nonperforming as the best indicator of credit quality. Nonperforming loans consist of loans that are not accruing interest (nonaccrual loans) as a result of principal or interest being delinquent for a period of 90 days or more or when the ability to collect principal and interest according to the contractual terms is in doubt. These credit quality indicators are updated on an ongoing basis, as a loan is placed on nonaccrual status as soon as management believes there is sufficient doubt as to the ultimate ability to collect interest on a loan. The tables below detail the Company’s loan portfolio by class according to their credit quality indicators discussed in the paragraphs above as of December 31, 2022:
The tables below detail the Company’s loan portfolio by class according to their credit quality indicators discussed in the paragraphs above as of December 31, 2021:
Nonperforming and Past Due Loans Nonperforming loans consist of loans that are not accruing interest (nonaccrual loans) as a result of principal or interest being delinquent for a period of 90 days or more or when the ability to collect principal and interest according to the contractual terms is in doubt. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest are not included in nonperforming loans and generally represent loans that are well secured and in process of collection. The risk of loss is difficult to quantify and is subject to fluctuations in collateral values, general economic conditions and other factors. The Company values its collateral through the use of appraisals, broker price opinions and knowledge of its local market. The following tables set forth an aging analysis of past due and nonaccrual loans as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:
Impaired Loans The Company has defined impaired loans to be all nonperforming loans and troubled debt restructurings. Management considers a loan impaired when, based on current information and events, it is determined that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the loan contract. The following tables provide detail on the Company’s loans individually evaluated for impairment with the associated allowance amount, if applicable, as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:
The following table presents the average recorded investments in impaired loans and the related amount of interest recognized during the time period in which the loans were impaired for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020. The average balances are calculated based on the month-end balances of impaired loans. When the ultimate collectability of the total principal of an impaired loan is in doubt and the loan is on nonaccrual status, all payments are applied to principal under the cost recovery method, therefore no interest income is recognized. The interest recognized on impaired loans noted below represents accruing troubled debt restructurings only and nominal amounts of income recognized on a cash basis for well-collateralized impaired loans.
Troubled Debt Restructurings The Company’s loan portfolio includes certain loans that have been modified as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”). TDRs occur when a creditor, for economic or legal reasons related to a debtor’s financial condition, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider, unless it results in a delay in payment that is insignificant. These concessions typically include reductions in interest rate, extending the maturity of a loan, other modifications of payment terms or a combination of modifications. When the Company modifies a loan, management evaluates for any possible impairment using either the discounted cash flows method, where the value of the modified loan is based on the present value of expected cash flows, discounted at the contractual interest rate of the original loan agreement, or by using the fair value of the collateral less selling costs if the loan is collateral-dependent. If management determines that the value of the modified loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, impairment is recognized by segment or class of loan, as applicable, through an allowance estimate or charge-off to the allowance. This process is used, regardless of loan type, and for loans modified as TDRs that subsequently default on their modified terms. TDRs of $1.4 million and $1.0 million are included in the impaired loan numbers as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The increase in TDRs was due to the addition of two loans, partially offset by the payoff of two TDRs. At December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no specific reserves on the TDRs. The TDRs are in accrual status since they are performing in accordance with the restructured terms. There are no commitments to lend additional funds on these loans. To date, the Company’s TDRs consisted of principal reduction, interest only periods and maturity extensions. There were no loans modified as a TDR within the previous 12 months that subsequently defaulted at some point during the year ended December 31, 2022. In this case, the subsequent default is defined as 90 days past due or transferred to nonaccrual status. Other Loan Information Servicing Assets: Loans sold to others and serviced by the Company are not included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The total amount of such loans serviced, but owned by third party investors, amounted to approximately $85.8 million and $106.1 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the carrying value, which approximates fair value, of servicing assets was $691 thousand and $1.0 million, respectively, and is included in Other assets. A summary of the changes in the related servicing assets for the past three years follows:
In addition, the Company had a $641 thousand and $915 thousand in discounts related to the retained portion of unsold SBA loans at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Officer and Director Loans: In the ordinary course of business, the Company may extend credit to officers, directors or their associates. These loans are subject to the Company’s normal lending policy. An analysis of such loans, all of which are current as to principal and interest payments, is as follows:
Loan Portfolio Collateral: The majority of the Company’s loans are secured by real estate. Declines in the market values of real estate in the Company’s trade area impact the value of the collateral securing its loans. This could lead to greater losses in the event of defaults on loans secured by real estate. At December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively, approximately 96% and 92% of the Company’s loan portfolio was secured by real estate. |

Allowance for Loan Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Loan Commitments | 4. Allowance for Loan Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Loan Commitments Allowance for Loan Losses The Company has an established methodology to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses that assesses the risks and losses inherent in the loan portfolio. At a minimum, the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is reviewed by management on a quarterly basis. The allowance is increased by provisions charged to expense and is reduced by net charge-offs. For purposes of determining the allowance for loan losses, the Company has segmented the loans in its portfolio by loan type. Loans are segmented into the following pools: SBA 7(a), commercial, residential mortgages, consumer and residential construction loans. Certain portfolio segments are further broken down into classes based on the associated risks within those segments and the type of collateral underlying each loan. Commercial loans are divided into the following five classes: commercial real estate, commercial real estate construction, unsecured business line of credit, commercial other and SBA 504. Consumer loans are divided into two classes as follows: home equity and other. The standardized methodology used to assess the adequacy of the allowance includes the allocation of specific and general reserves. The same standard methodology is used, regardless of loan type. Specific reserves are evaluated for individual impaired loans and TDRs. The general reserve is set based upon a representative average historical net charge-off rate adjusted for the following environmental factors: delinquency and impairment trends, charge-off and recovery trends, volume and loan term trends, changes in risk and underwriting policy trends, staffing and experience changes, national and local economic trends, industry conditions and credit concentration changes. Within the five-year historical net charge-off rate, the Company weights the past three years more heavily. All of the environmental factors are ranked and assigned a basis points value based on the following scale: low, low moderate, moderate, high moderate and high risk. Each environmental factor is evaluated separately for each class of loans and risk weighted based on its individual characteristics.
According to the Company’s policy, a loss (“charge-off”) is to be recognized and charged to the allowance for loan losses as soon as a loan is recognized as uncollectable. All credits which are 90 days past due must be analyzed for the Company’s ability to collect on the credit. Once a loss is known to exist, the charge-off approval process is immediately expedited. This charge-off policy is followed for all loan types. The allocated allowance is the total of identified specific and general reserves by loan category. The allocation is not necessarily indicative of the categories in which future losses may occur. The total allowance is available to absorb losses from any segment of the portfolio. The following tables detail the activity in the allowance for loan losses by portfolio segment for the past three years:
The following tables present loans and their related allowance for loan losses, by portfolio segment, as of December 31st for the past two years:
The Company allocated an additional reserve for loans with a substandard rating, not otherwise considered for specific reserves. Reserve for Unfunded Loan Commitments In addition to the allowance for loan losses, the Company maintains a reserve for unfunded loan commitments at a level that management believes is adequate to absorb estimated probable losses. Adjustments to the reserve are made through other expense and applied to the reserve which is classified as other liabilities. At December 31, 2022, a $0.5 million commitment reserve was reported on the balance sheet in “Other liabilities”, compared to a $0.4 million commitment reserve at December 31, 2021. |

Borrowed Funds and Subordinated Debentures | 7. Borrowed Funds, Subordinated Debentures and Derivatives The following table presents the period-end and weighted average rate for borrowed funds and subordinated debentures as of the past two year end dates:
The following table presents the expected maturities of borrowed funds and subordinated debentures over the next five years:
Subordinated Debentures At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company was a party in the following subordinated debenture transactions:
The capital securities in the above transaction have preference over the common securities with respect to liquidation and other distributions and qualify as Tier 1 capital. Under the terms of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, these securities will continue to qualify as Tier 1 capital as the Company has less than $10 billion in assets. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation,” the Company does not consolidate the accounts and related activity of Unity (NJ) Statutory Trust II because it is not the primary beneficiary. The additional capital from this transaction was used to bolster the Company’s capital ratios and for general corporate purposes, including among other things, capital contributions to the Bank. The Company has the ability to defer interest payments on the subordinated debentures for up to 5 years without being in default. Due to the redemption provisions of these securities, the expected maturity could differ from the contractual maturity. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities Derivative Financial Instruments The Company has derivative financial instruments in the form of interest rate swap agreements, which derive their value from underlying interest rates. These transactions involve both credit and market risk. The notional amounts are amounts on which calculations, payments and the value of the derivatives are based. Notional amounts do not represent direct credit exposures. Direct credit exposure is limited to the net difference between the calculated amounts to be received and paid, if any. Such difference, which represents the fair value of the derivative instrument, is reflected on the Company’s balance sheet as Other assets or Other liabilities. The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to any derivative agreement. The Company controls the credit risk of its financial contracts through credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures, and does not expect any counterparties to fail their obligations. The Company deals only with primary dealers. Derivative instruments are generally either negotiated OTC contracts or standardized contracts executed on a recognized exchange. Negotiated OTC derivative contracts are generally entered into between two counterparties that negotiate specific agreement terms, including the underlying instrument, amount, exercise prices and maturity. Risk Management Policies – Hedging Instruments The primary focus of the Company’s asset/liability management program is to monitor the sensitivity of the Company’s net portfolio value and net income under varying interest rate scenarios to take steps to control its risks. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates the effectiveness of entering into any derivative agreement by measuring the cost of such an agreement in relation to the reduction in net portfolio value and net income volatility within an assumed range of interest rates. Interest Rate Risk Management – Cash Flow Hedging Instruments The Company has variable rate debt as a source of funds for use in the Company’s lending and investment activities and for other general business purposes. These debt obligations expose the Company to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. If interest rates increase, interest expense increases. Conversely, if interest rates decrease, interest expense decreases. Management believes it is prudent to limit the variability of a portion of its interest payments and, therefore hedges its variable-rate interest payments. To meet this objective, management enters into interest rate swap agreements whereby the Company receives variable interest rate payments and makes fixed interest rate payments during the contract period. At December 31, 2022, the Company had no cash collateral pledged for these derivatives, compared to $1.3 million at December 31, 2021. A summary of the Company’s outstanding interest rate swap agreements used to hedge variable rate debt at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively is as follows:
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company received variable rate LIBOR payments from and paid fixed rates in accordance with its interest rate swap agreements. The unrealized gains relating to interest rate swaps are recorded as a derivative asset and are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets in the Company’s Balance Sheet, and the unrealized losses are recorded as a derivative liability and are included in Accrued expenses and other liabilities. Changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps designated as hedging instruments of the variability of cash flows associated with long-term debt are reported in other comprehensive income. The amount included in accumulated other comprehensive income would be reclassified to current earnings should the hedges no longer be considered effective. The Company expects the hedges to remain fully effective during the remaining terms of the swaps. The following table presents the net gains (losses) recorded in other comprehensive income and the consolidated financial statements relating to the cash flow derivative instruments at December 31, 2022, and 2021 respectively:

Leases and Commitments | 8. Leases and Commitments Leases Operating leases in which the Bank is the lessee and the term is greater than 12 months, are recorded as right of use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities, and are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets and Accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively, on the Bank’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Bank does not currently have any finance leases in which it is the lessee. Operating lease ROU assets represent the Bank’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement based on the present value of the remaining lease payments using a discount rate that represents the Bank’s incremental borrowing rate. The borrowing rate for each lease is unique based on the lease term. Operating lease expense, which is comprised of amortization of the ROU asset and the implicit interest accreted on the operating lease liability, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and is recorded in Occupancy expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Bank’s leases relate primarily to bank branches, office space and equipment with remaining lease terms of generally 1 to 10 years. Certain lease arrangements contain extension options which typically range from 1 to 5 years at the then fair market rental rates. Certain real estate leases have lease payments that adjust based on annual changes in the Consumer Price Index ("CPI"). The leases that are dependent upon CPI are initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date and are included in the measurement of the lease liability. Operating lease ROU assets totaled $5.6 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $5.2 million at December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2022, operating totaled $5.6 million, compared to $5.3 million at December 31, 2021.The table below summarizes the Company’s net lease cost:
The table below summarizes the cash and non-cash activities associated with the Company’s leases:
In 2022, the Company terminated one lease. This decreased the ROU asset and by $0.5 million, respectively.The table below summarizes other information related to the Company’s operating leases:
The table below summarizes the maturity of remaining lease liabilities:
As of December 31, 2022, the Company had not entered into any material leases that have not yet commenced. Commitments to Borrowers Commitments to extend credit are legally binding loan commitments with set expiration dates. They are intended to be disbursed, subject to certain conditions, upon the request of the borrower. The Company was committed to advance approximately $514.8 million to its borrowers as of December 31, 2022, compared to $399.8 million at December 31, 2021. At December 31, 2022, $177.7 million of these commitments expire within one year, compared to $170.1 million a year earlier. At December 31, 2022, the Company had $5.6 million in standby letters of credit compared to $4.3 million at December 31, 2021. The estimated fair value of these guarantees is not significant. The Company believes it has the necessary liquidity to honor all commitments. Litigation The Company may, in the ordinary course of business, become a party to litigation involving collection matters, contract claims and other legal proceedings relating to the conduct of its business. In the best judgment of management, based upon consultation with counsel, the consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Company will not be affected materially by the final outcome of any pending legal proceedings or other contingent liabilities and commitments. |

Income Taxes | 11. Income Taxes The components of the provision for income taxes for the past three years are as follows:
Reconciliation between the reported income tax provision and the amount computed by multiplying income before taxes by the statutory Federal income tax rate for the past three years is as follows:
Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities. The components of the net deferred tax asset at December 31, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:
The Company computes deferred income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are recognized for tax consequences of “temporary differences” by applying enacted statutory tax rates to differences between the financial reporting and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities. A deferred tax liability is recognized for all temporary differences that will result in future taxable income. A deferred tax asset is recognized for all temporary differences that will result in future tax deductions subject to reduction of the asset by a valuation allowance. Included as a component of deferred tax assets is an income tax expense (benefit) related to unrealized gains (losses) on securities available for sale, a supplemental retirement plan (“SERP”) and interest rate swaps. The after-tax component of each of these is included in other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity. The after-tax component related to securities available for sale was an unrealized loss of $4.4 million for 2022, compared to an unrealized gain of $29 thousand in 2021. The after-tax component related to the interest rate swaps was an unrealized gain of $1.1 million for 2022, compared to an unrealized gain of $293 thousand for 2021. The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which prescribes a threshold for the financial statement recognition of income taxes and provides criteria for the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also includes guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition of income taxes. The Company did not recognize or accrue any interest or penalties related to income taxes during the years ended December 31, 2022 or 2021. The Company does not have an accrual for uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2022 or 2021, as deductions taken and benefits accrued are based on widely understood administrative practices and procedures and are based on clear and unambiguous tax law. Tax returns for all years 2019 and thereafter are subject to future examination by tax authorities. |

Employee Benefit Plans | 14. Employee Benefit Plans Stock Option Plans The Company has maintained option plans and maintains an equity incentive plan, which allow for the grant of options to officers, employees and members of the Board of Directors. Grants of options under the Company’s plans generally vest over 3 years and must be exercised within 10 years of the date of grant. Transactions under the Company’s stock option plans for 2022, 2021 and 2020 are summarized in the following table:
On April 25, 2019, the Company adopted the 2019 Equity Compensation Plan providing for grants of up to 500,000 shares to be allocated between incentive and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock awards, performance units and deferred stock. The Plan replaced all previously approved and established equity plans then currently in effect. As of December 31, 2022, 281,500 options and 209,400 shares of restricted stock have been awarded from the plan. In addition, 15,496 unvested options and 12,400 unvested shares of restricted stock were cancelled and returned to the plan leaving 36,996 shares available for future grants. The fair values of the options granted during 2021 and 2020 were estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions. There were no options granted during 2022.
Upon exercise, the Company issues shares from its authorized but unissued common stock to satisfy the options. The following table presents information about options exercised during 2022, 2021 and 2020:
The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding and exercisable at December 31, 2022:
FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” requires an entity to recognize the fair value of equity awards as compensation expense over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for such an award (vesting period). Compensation expense related to stock options and the related income tax benefit for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 are detailed in the following table:
As of December 31, 2022, unrecognized compensation costs related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Company’s stock option plans totaled approximately $350 thousand. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.1 years. Restricted Stock Awards Restricted stock is issued under the 2019 Equity Compensation Plan to reward employees and directors and to retain them by distributing stock over a period of time. Restricted stock awards granted to date vest over a period of 4 years and are recognized as compensation to the recipient over the vesting period. The awards are recorded at fair market value at the time of grant and amortized into salary expense on a straight line basis over the vesting period. The following table summarizes nonvested restricted stock activity for the year ended December 31, 2022:
Restricted stock awards granted during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 were as follows:
Compensation expense related to the restricted stock for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 is detailed in the following table:
As of December 31, 2022, there was approximately $3.3 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested restricted stock awards granted under the Company’s stock incentive plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.0 years. 401(k) Savings Plan The Bank has a 401(k) savings plan covering substantially all employees. Under the Plan, an employee can contribute up to 75 percent of their salary on a tax deferred basis. The Bank may also make discretionary contributions to the Plan. The Bank contributed $790 thousand, $786 thousand, and $675 thousand to the Plan in 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Deferred Fee Plan The Company has a deferred fee plan for Directors and eligible management. Directors of the Company have the option to elect to defer up to 100 percent of their respective retainer and Board of Director fees, and each eligible member of management has the option to elect to defer 100 percent of their total compensation. Director and executive deferred compensation totaled $674 thousand in 2022, $593 thousand in 2021 and $591 thousand in 2020, and the interest paid on deferred balances totaled $162 thousand in 2022, $136 thousand in 2021 and $132 thousand in 2020. The deferred balances distributed totaled $14 thousand in 2022, 2021 and 2020. Benefit Plans In addition to the 401(k) savings plan which covers substantially all employees, in 2015 the Company established an unfunded supplemental defined benefit plan to provide additional retirement benefits for the President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and unfunded, non-qualified deferred retirement plans for certain other key executives. On June 4, 2015, the Company approved the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) pursuant to which the President and CEO is entitled to receive certain supplemental nonqualified retirement benefits. The retirement benefit under the SERP is an amount equal to sixty percent (60%) of the average of the President and CEO’s base salary for the thirty-six (36) months immediately preceding the executive’s separation from service after age 66, adjusted annually thereafter by a percentage equal to the Consumer Price Index as reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U). The total benefit is to be made payable in fifteen annual installments. The future payments are estimated to total $7.2 million. A discount rate of four percent (4%) was used to calculate the present value of the benefit obligation. The President and CEO commenced vesting to this retirement benefit on January 1, 2014, and it will vest an additional three percent (3%) each year until fully vested on January 1, 2024. In the event that the President and CEO’s separation from service from the Company were to occur prior to full vesting, the President and CEO would be entitled to and shall be paid the vested portion of the retirement benefit calculated as of the date of separation from service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a Change in Control, and provided that within 6 months following the Change in Control the President and CEO is involuntarily terminated for reasons other than “cause” or the President and CEO resigns for “good reason”, as such is defined in the SERP, or the President and CEO voluntarily terminates his employment after being offered continued employment in a position that is not a “Comparable Position”, as such is also defined in the SERP, the President and CEO shall become one hundred percent (100%) vested in the full retirement benefit. No contributions or payments have been made for the year 2022, 2021 or 2020. The following table summarizes the components of the net periodic pension cost of the defined benefit plan recognized during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020:
The following table summarizes the changes in benefit obligations of the defined benefit plan recognized during the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020
On October 22, 2015, the Company entered into an Executive Incentive Retirement Plan (the “Plan”) with key executive officers other than the President and CEO. The Plan has an effective date of January 1, 2015. The Plan is an unfunded, nonqualified deferred compensation plan. For any Plan Year, a guaranteed annual Deferral Award percentage of seven and one half percent (7.5%) of the participant’s annual base salary shall be credited to each Participant’s Deferred Benefit Account. A discretionary annual Deferral Award equal to seven and one half percent (7.5%) of the participant’s annual base salary may be credited to the Participant’s account in addition to the guaranteed Deferral Award, if the Bank exceeds the benchmarks set forth in the Annual Executive Bonus Matrix. The total Deferral Award shall never exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the participant’s base salary for any given Plan Year. Each Participant shall be one hundred percent (100%) vested in all Deferral Awards as of the date they are awarded. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had total expenses related to the Plan of $142 thousand, compared to $108 thousand in 2021 and $86 thousand in 2020. The Plan is reflected on the Company’s balance sheet as accrued expenses. Certain members of management are also enrolled in a split-dollar life insurance plan with a post retirement death benefit of $250 thousand.

Fair Value | 15. Fair Value Fair Value Measurement The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures,” which requires additional disclosures about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value. Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various methods including market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Company often utilizes certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated or generally unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed as follows: Level 1 Inputs
Level 2 Inputs
Level 3 Inputs
Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis: Debt Securities Available for Sale The fair value of available for sale ("AFS") debt securities is the market value based on quoted market prices, when available, or market prices provided by recognized broker dealers (Level 1). If listed prices or quotes are not available, fair value is based upon quoted market prices for similar or identical assets or other observable inputs (Level 2) or externally developed models that use unobservable inputs due to limited or no market activity of the instrument (Level 3). As of December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Company’s AFS debt securities portfolio was $95.4 million. The portfolio contains residential mortgage-backed securities, most of which, are guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”). The underlying loans for these securities are residential mortgages that are geographically dispersed throughout the United States. Most of the Company’s AFS debt securities were classified as Level 2 assets at December 31, 2022. The valuation of AFS debt securities using Level 2 inputs was primarily determined using the market approach, which uses quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and all other relevant information. It includes model pricing, defined as valuing securities based upon their relationship with other benchmark securities. Included in the Company’s AFS debt securities are certain corporate bonds which are classified as Level 3 assets at December 31, 2022. The valuation of these corporate bonds is determined using broker quotes, third-party vendor prices, or other valuation techniques, such as discounted cash flow techniques. Market inputs used in the other valuation techniques or underlying third-party vendor prices or broker quotes include benchmark and government bond yield curves, credit spreads, and trade execution data. The following table presents a reconciliation of the Level 3 available for sale debt securities measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021:
The fair value of equity securities is the market value based on quoted market prices, when available, or market prices provided by recognized broker dealers (Level 1). If listed prices or quotes are not available, fair value is based upon quoted market prices for similar or identical assets or other observable inputs (Level 2) or externally developed models that use unobservable inputs due to limited or no market activity of the instrument (Level 3). As of December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Company’s equity securities portfolio was $9.8 million. All of the Company’s equity securities were classified as Level 2 assets at December 31, 2022. The valuation of securities using Level 2 inputs was primarily determined using the market approach, which uses quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and all other relevant information. There were no changes in the inputs or methodologies used to determine fair value during the period ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the period ended December 31, 2021. Interest Rate Swap Agreements The fair value of interest rate swap agreements is the market value based on quoted market prices, when available, or market prices provided by recognized broker dealers (Level 1). If listed prices or quotes are not available, fair value is based upon quoted market prices for similar or identical assets or other observable inputs (Level 2) or externally developed models that use unobservable inputs due to limited or no market activity of the instrument (Level 3). The Company’s derivative instruments are classified as Level 2 assets, as the readily observable market inputs to these models are validated to external sources, such as industry pricing services, or are corroborated through recent trades, dealer quotes, yield curves, implied volatility or other market-related data. The tables below present the balances of assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31st for the past two years:
Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis The following tables present the assets and liabilities subject to fair value adjustments (impairment) on a non-recurring basis carried on the balance sheet by caption and by level within the hierarchy (as described above):
Certain assets and liabilities 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). The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis: Impaired Collateral-Dependent Loans The fair value of impaired collateral-dependent loans is derived in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 310, "Receivables." Fair value is determined based on the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral. Partially charged-off loans are measured for impairment based upon an appraisal for collateral-dependent loans. When an updated appraisal is received for a nonperforming loan, the value on the appraisal is discounted. If there is a deficiency in the value after the Company applies these discounts, management applies a specific reserve and the loan remains in nonaccrual status. The receipt of an updated appraisal would not qualify as a reason to put a loan back into accruing status. The Company removes loans from nonaccrual status generally when the borrower makes three months of contractual payments and demonstrates the ability to service the debt going forward. Charge-offs are determined based upon the loss that management believes the Company will incur after evaluating collateral for impairment based upon the valuation methods described above and the ability of the borrower to pay any deficiency. The valuation allowance for impaired loans is included in the allowance for loan losses in the consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2022, the valuation allowance for impaired loans was $1.8 million, a decrease of $1.0 million from $2.8 million at December 31, 2021. Fair Value of Financial Instruments FASB ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires the disclosure of the estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including those financial instruments for which the Company did not elect the fair value option. These estimated fair values as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 have been determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to develop estimates of fair value. The estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of alternative market assumptions and estimation methodologies could have had a material effect on these estimates of fair value. The methodology for estimating the fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis are discussed above. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of other financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value: Cash and Cash Equivalents For these short-term instruments, the carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value. Securities The fair value of securities is based upon quoted market prices for similar or identical assets or other observable inputs (Level 2) or externally developed models that use unobservable inputs due to limited or no market activity of the instrument (Level 3). SBA Loans Held for Sale The fair value of SBA loans held for sale is estimated by using a market approach that includes significant other observable inputs. Loans The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current market rates that reflect the interest rate risk inherent in the loan, except for previously discussed impaired loans. Deposit Liabilities The fair value of demand deposits and savings accounts is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e. carrying value). The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current market rates. Borrowed Funds and Subordinated Debentures The fair value of borrowings is estimated by discounting the projected future cash flows using current market rates. Standby Letters of Credit At December 31, 2022, the Bank had standby letters of credit outstanding of $5.6 million, as compared to $4.3 million at December 31, 2021. The fair value of these commitments is nominal. The table below presents the carrying amount and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments not previously presented as of December 31st for the past two years:
Limitations Fair value estimates are made at a point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. Fair value estimates are based on existing on- and off-statement of condition financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the effect of fair value estimates have not been considered in the above estimates. |

Use Of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements | Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial conditions and results of operations for the periods indicated. Amounts requiring the use of significant estimates include the allowance for loan losses, valuation of deferred tax and servicing assets, the carrying value of loans held for sale, other real estate owned, the valuation of securities and the determination of other-than-temporary impairment for securities and fair value disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |

Risks and Uncertainties | Risks and Uncertainties On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected local, national and global economic activity. Although, the economy has generally improved since March 2020, there still remains much uncertainty around the containment of the pandemic and the trajectory of the broader economic recovery. The Company continues to be subject to heightened business, operational (including fraud), market, credit and other risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic environment and changes in which people work and shop originating from the pandemic, which may have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. On July 27, 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced that it will no longer persuade or compel banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR to the LIBOR administrator after 2021. The announcement also indicates that the continuation of LIBOR on the current basis cannot and will not be guaranteed after 2021, although LIBOR rates of certain tenors may be published until June 2023. Consequently, at this time, it is not possible to predict whether and to what extent banks will continue to provide LIBOR submissions to the LIBOR administrator or whether any additional reforms to LIBOR may be enacted in the United Kingdom or elsewhere. Similarly, it is not possible to predict whether LIBOR will continue to be viewed as an acceptable benchmark for certain loans and liabilities until LIBOR becomes unavailable, including the Company’s subordinated notes, or the effect of any such changes in views or alternatives on the values of the loans and liabilities, whose interest rates are tied to LIBOR. Uncertainty as to the nature of such potential changes, the elimination and replacement of LIBOR or other reforms may adversely affect the value of, and the return on the Company's loans, and its investment securities. Overall, the markets and customers serviced by the Company may be significantly impacted by the ongoing macro-economic trends, such as inflation and recessionary pressures created by a higher interest rate environment. The Company assesses the impact of inflation on an ongoing basis and the impacts of inflation may have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Securities | Securities The Company classifies its securities into three categories, debt securities available for sale, debt securities held to maturity and equity securities with readily determinable fair values ("equity securities"). Debt securities that are classified as available for sale are stated at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale are excluded from results of operations and are reported as other comprehensive income, a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of taxes. Debt securities classified as available for sale include debt securities that may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, changes in prepayment risks or for asset/liability management purposes or liquidity needs. The cost of debt securities sold is determined on a specific identification basis. Gains and losses on sales of debt securities are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income on a trade date basis. Debt securities are classified as held to maturity based on management’s intent and ability to hold them to maturity. Such debt securities are stated at cost, adjusted for unamortized purchase premiums and discounts using the level yield method. Equity securities are investments carried at fair value that may be sold in response to changing market and interest rate conditions or for other business purposes. Activity in this portfolio is undertaken primarily to manage liquidity and interest rate risk, to take advantage of market conditions that create economically attractive returns and as an additional source of earnings. Periodic net gains and losses on equity investments are recognized in the income statement as realized gains and losses. For additional information on securities, see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Other-Than-Temporary Impairment The Company has a process in place to identify debt securities that could potentially incur credit impairment that is other-than-temporary. This process involves monitoring late payments, pricing levels, downgrades by rating agencies, key financial ratios, financial statements, revenue forecasts and cash flow projections as indicators of credit issues. Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis and more frequently when economic or market concern warrants such evaluation. This evaluation considers relevant facts and circumstances in evaluating whether a credit or interest rate-related impairment of a security is other-than-temporary. Relevant facts and circumstances considered include: (1) the extent and length of time the fair value has been below cost; (2) the reasons for the decline in value; (3) the financial position and access to capital of the issuer, including the current and future impact of any specific events and (4) for fixed maturity securities, the intent to sell a security or whether it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the security before the recovery of its amortized cost which, in some cases, may extend to maturity. Management assesses its intent to sell or whether it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell a security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period credit losses. For debt securities that are considered other-than-temporarily impaired where management has no intent to sell and the Company has no requirement to sell prior to recovery of its amortized cost basis, the amount of the impairment is separated into the amount that is credit related (credit loss component) and the amount due to all other factors. The credit loss component is recognized in earnings and is the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and the present value of its expected future cash flows. The remaining difference between the security’s fair value and the present value of future expected cash flows is due to factors that are not credit related and is recognized in other comprehensive income. For debt securities where management has the intent to sell, the amount of the impairment is reflected in earnings as realized losses. The present value of expected future cash flows is determined using the best estimate cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate implicit to the security at the date of purchase or the current yield to accrete an asset-backed or floating rate security. The methodology and assumptions for establishing the best estimate cash flows vary depending on the type of security. The asset-backed securities cash flow estimates are based on bond specific facts and circumstances that may include collateral characteristics, expectations of delinquency and default rates, loss severity and prepayment speeds and structural support, including subordination and guarantees. The corporate bond cash flow estimates are derived from scenario-based outcomes of expected corporate restructurings or the disposition of assets using bond specific facts and circumstances including timing, security interests and loss severity. |

Transfers of Financial Assets | Transfers of Financial Assets Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity. |
||||||||||||
Loans Held for Sale | Loans Held for Sale Loans held for sale represent the guaranteed portion of certain SBA loans, other than loans originated under the Paycheck Protection Program, and are reflected at the lower of aggregate cost or market value. The Company originates loans to customers under an SBA program that historically has provided for SBA guarantees of up to 90 percent of each loan. The Company may sell the guaranteed portion of its SBA loans to a third party and retains the servicing, holding the nonguaranteed portion in its portfolio. The net amount of loan origination fees on loans sold is included in the carrying value and in the gain or loss on the sale. When sales of SBA loans do occur, the premium received on the sale and the present value of future cash flows of the servicing assets are recognized in income. All criteria for sale accounting must be met in order for the loan sales to occur; see details under the “Transfers of Financial Assets” heading above. Servicing assets represent the estimated fair value of retained servicing rights, net of servicing costs, at the time loans are sold. Servicing assets are amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing revenues. Impairment is evaluated based on stratifying the underlying financial assets by date of origination and term. Fair value is determined using prices for similar assets with similar characteristics, when available, or based upon discounted cash flows using market-based assumptions. Any impairment, if temporary, would generally be reported as a valuation allowance. Serviced loans sold to others are not included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Income and fees collected for loan servicing are credited to noninterest income when earned, net of amortization on the related servicing assets. For additional information on servicing assets, see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. |
||||||||||||
Loans Held for Investment | Loans Held for Investment Loans held for investment are stated at the unpaid principal balance, net of unearned discounts and deferred loan origination fees and costs. In accordance with the level yield method, loan origination fees, net of direct loan origination costs, are deferred and recognized over the estimated life of the related loans as an adjustment to the loan yield. Interest is credited to operations primarily based upon the principal balance outstanding. Loans are reported as past due when either interest or principal is unpaid in the following circumstances: fixed payment loans when the borrower is in arrears for two or more monthly payments; open end credit for two or more billing cycles; and single payment notes if interest or principal remains unpaid for 30 days or more. Nonperforming loans consist of loans that are not accruing interest as a result of principal or interest being delinquent for a period of 90 days or more or when the ability to collect principal and interest according to the contractual terms is in doubt (nonaccrual loans). When a loan is classified as nonaccrual, interest accruals are discontinued and all past due interest previously recognized as income is reversed and charged against current period earnings. Generally, until the loan becomes current, any payments received from the borrower are applied to outstanding principal until such time as management determines that the financial condition of the borrower and other factors merit recognition of a portion of such payments as interest income. Loans may be returned to an accrual status when the ability to collect is reasonably assured and when the loan is brought current as to principal and interest. Loans are charged off when collection is sufficiently questionable and when the Company can no longer justify maintaining the loan as an asset on the balance sheet. Loans qualify for charge-off when, after thorough analysis, all possible sources of repayment are insufficient. These include: 1) potential future cash flows, 2) value of collateral, and/or 3) strength of co-makers and guarantors. All unsecured loans are charged off upon the establishment of the loan’s nonaccrual status. Additionally, all loans classified as a loss or that portion of the loan classified as a loss is charged off. All loan charge-offs are approved by executive management and the Board of Directors. Troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") occur when a creditor, for economic or legal reasons related to a debtor’s financial condition, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. These concessions typically include reductions in interest rate, extending the maturity of a loan, or a combination of both. Interest income on accruing TDRs is credited to operations primarily based upon the principal amount outstanding, as stated in the paragraphs above. The Company evaluates its loans for impairment. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Company has defined impaired loans to be all TDRs and nonperforming loans individually evaluated for impairment. Impairment of a loan is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or as a practical expedient, based on a loan’s observable market price or the fair value of collateral, net of estimated costs to sell, if the loan is collateral-dependent. If the value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the Company establishes a valuation allowance, or adjusts existing valuation allowances, with a corresponding charge to the provision for loan losses. For additional information on loans, see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. |

Allowance for Loan Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Loan Commitments | Allowance for Loan Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Loan Commitments The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level management considers adequate to provide for probable loan losses as of the balance sheet date. The allowance is increased by provisions charged to expense and is reduced by net charge-offs. The level of the allowance is based on management’s evaluation of probable losses in the loan portfolio, after consideration of prevailing economic conditions in the Company’s market area, the volume and composition of the loan portfolio and historical loan loss experience. The allowance for loan losses consists of specific reserves for individually impaired credits and TDRs, reserves for nonimpaired loans based on historical loss factors adjusted for general economic factors and other qualitative risk factors such as changes in delinquency trends, industry concentrations or local/national economic trends. This risk assessment process is performed at least quarterly and, as adjustments become necessary, they are realized in the periods in which they become known. Although management attempts to maintain the allowance at a level deemed adequate to provide for probable losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based upon certain factors including changes in market conditions and underlying collateral values. In addition, various regulatory agencies periodically review the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for loan losses. These agencies may require the Company to make additional provisions based on their judgments about information available at the time of the examination. The Company maintains a reserve for unfunded loan commitments at a level that management believes is adequate to absorb estimated probable losses. Adjustments to the reserve are made through other expenses and applied to the reserve which is classified as other liabilities. For additional information on the allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded loan commitments, see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. |

Premises and Equipment, net | Premises and Equipment, net Land is carried at cost. All other fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The useful life of buildings is not to exceed 30 years; furniture and fixtures is generally 10 years or less, and equipment is 3 to 5 years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the life of the underlying lease. For additional information on premises and equipment, see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. |

Bank Owned Life Insurance | Bank Owned Life Insurance The Company purchased life insurance policies on certain members of management. Bank owned life insurance is recorded at its cash surrender value or the amount that can be realized. |
||||||||||||
Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") Stock | Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) Stock Federal law requires a member institution of the Federal Home Loan Bank system to hold stock of its district FHLB according to a predetermined formula. The stock is carried at cost. Management reviews the stock for impairment based on the ultimate recoverability of the cost basis in the stock. The stock’s value is determined by the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines. Management considers such criteria as the significance of the decline in net assets, if any, of the FHLB, the length of time this situation has persisted, commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation, the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on the customer base of the FHLB and the liquidity position of the FHLB. |

Accrued Interest Receivable | Accrued Interest Receivable Accrued interest receivable consists of amounts earned on investments and loans. The Company recognizes accrued interest receivable as it is earned. |
||||||||||||
Other Real Estate Owned and Appraisals | Other Real Estate Owned Other real estate owned (“OREO”) is recorded at the fair value, less estimated costs to sell at the date of acquisition, with a charge to the allowance for loan losses for any excess of the loan carrying value over such amount. Subsequently, OREO is carried at the lower of cost or fair value, as determined by current appraisals. Certain costs that increase the value or extend the useful life in preparing properties for sale are capitalized to the extent that the appraisal amount exceeds the carrying value and expenses of holding foreclosed properties are charged to operations as incurred. Appraisals All appraisals must be performed in accordance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (“USPAP”). Appraisals are certified to the Company and performed by appraisers on the Company’s approved list of appraisers. Evaluations are completed by a person independent of Company management. The content of the appraisal depends on the complexity of the property. |
||||||||||||
Goodwill | Goodwill The Company accounts for goodwill and other intangible assets in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,” which allows an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. Based on a qualitative assessment, management determined that the Company’s recorded goodwill totaling $1.5 million, which resulted from the 2005 acquisition of its Phillipsburg, New Jersey branch, is not impaired as of December 31, 2022. |
||||||||||||
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities | Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities The Company utilizes derivative instruments in the form of interest rate swaps to hedge its exposure to interest rate risk in conjunction with its overall asset and liability risk management process. In accordance with accounting requirements, the Company formally designates all of its hedging relationships as either fair value hedges or cash flow hedges. The Company’s derivative instruments currently consist of cash flow hedges. The Company recognizes all derivative instruments at fair value as either Other assets or Other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and the related cash flows in the Operating Activities section of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. For derivatives designated cash flow hedges (i.e., hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows), the gain or loss on the derivative is reported in other comprehensive income and is reclassified into earnings in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Those derivative financial instruments that do not meet the hedging criteria discussed below would be classified as undesignated derivatives and would be recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in income. The Company discontinues hedge accounting when (a) it determines that a derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of a hedged item; (b) the derivative expires or is sold, terminated or exercised; (c) probability exists that the forecasted transaction will no longer occur; or (d) management determines that designating the derivative as a hedging instrument is no longer appropriate. In all cases in which hedge accounting is discontinued and a derivative remains outstanding, the Company will carry the derivative at fair value in the Consolidated Financial Statements, recognizing changes in fair value in current period income in the consolidated statement of income. For additional information on derivative instruments and hedging activities, see Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. |
||||||||||||
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("FASB ASC") Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which prescribes a threshold for the financial statement recognition of income taxes and provides criteria for the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also includes guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition of income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates applicable to taxable income for the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation reserves are established against certain deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Increases or decreases in the valuation reserve are charged or credited to the income tax provision. When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that ultimately would be sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. The evaluation of a tax position taken is considered by itself and not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are recognized in income tax expense on the income statement. For additional information on income taxes, see Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. |

Net Income Per Share | Net Income Per Share Basic net income per common share is calculated as net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted net income per common share is computed similarly to that of basic net income per common share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common shares, principally stock options, were issued during the reporting period utilizing the Treasury stock method. However, when a net loss rather than net income is recognized, diluted earnings per share equals basic earnings per share. For additional information on net income per share, see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. |
||||||||||||
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation awards in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation,” which requires recognition of compensation expense related to stock-based compensation awards over the period during which an employee is required to provide service for the award. Compensation expense is equal to the fair value of the award, net of estimated forfeitures, and is recognized over the vesting period of such awards. For additional information on the Company’s stock-based compensation, see Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. |
||||||||||||
Fair Value | Fair Value The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures,” which provides a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles. For additional information on the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, see Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. |

Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements ASU 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." ASU 2020-04 provides temporary optional guidance intended to ease the burden of reference rate reform on financial reporting. The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying existing guidance to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions that are expected to be affected by reference rate reform and meet certain scope guidance. ASU 2020-04 provides various optional expedients, including the following, for hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met:
In addition, ASU 2020-04 permits an entity to make a one-time election to sell, transfer or both sell and transfer debt securities classified as held to maturity that reference a rate affected by reference rate reform and that were classified as held to maturity before January 1, 2020. ASU 2020-04 was effective upon its issuance on March 12, 2020. However, it cannot be applied to contract modifications that occur after December 31, 2022. With certain exceptions, the ASU also cannot be applied to hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after that date. The company is currently evaluating the various optional expedients as well as impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-04 on its consolidated financial statements. ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope.” ASU 2021-01 was issued to clarify certain optional expedients and exceptions in ASC 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting applied to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transaction. In addition, the ASU clarifies that a receive-variable-rate, pay-variable-rate cross-currency interest rate swap may be considered eligible as a hedging instrument in a net investment hedge if both legs of the swap do not have the same repricing intervals and dates as a result of the reference rate reform. ASU 2021-01 became effective January 7, 2021. The Company currently uses the shortcut method as the practical expedient. ASU 2022-06, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)”: provides optional guidance to ease potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting during the transition period. The Board included a sunset provision within Topic 848 based on expectations of when the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) would cease being published. At the time that Updated 2020-04 was issued, the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) had established its intent that it would no longer be necessary to persuade, or compel, banks to submit to LIBOR after December 31, 2021. As a result, the sunset provision was set for December 31, 2022 – 12 months after the expected cessation date of all currencies and tenors of LIBOR. Because the current relief in Topic 848 may not cover a period during which a significant number of modifications may take place, the amendments in this update defer the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 21, 2022, to December 31, 2024, after which entities will no longer be permitted to apply the relief in Topic 848. New Accounting Guidance Adopted in the First Quarter 2023 ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” amends the accounting guidance regarding the impairment of financial instruments. The FASB issued this guidance to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology with a new current credit loss (“CECL”) model. Under the new guidance, the Company will be required to measure expected credit losses by utilizing forward-looking information to assess its allowance for credit losses. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. The measurement of expected credit losses under CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loans and held to maturity debt securities. CECL also applies to certain off-balance sheet exposures. The Company will adopt the new CECL accounting guidance effective January 1, 2023, using the modified retrospective approach for all financial assets measured at amortized cost and off-balance sheet credit exposures. The Company has established a governance structure to implement the CECL accounting guidance and has developed a methodology and set of models to be used upon adoption. At December 31, 2022, the Company’s loan portfolio totaled, $2.1 billion with a corresponding allowance for loan losses of $25.2 million under current GAAP. Based on the Company’s current CECL model results that it has performed alongside the current process, the Company estimates that the adoption of the new guidance will result in an increase to the allowance for credit losses, including the reserve for off-balance sheet credit exposure (recorded in other liabilities) between $0.5 million to $1.0 million. For other assets within the scope of the new CECL accounting guidance, such as held to maturity debt securities and other receivables, management expects the impact from adoption to be inconsequential. Additionally, the Company does not expect the adoption of CECL to have significant impact on regulatory capital ratios of the Company and/or the Bank. The Company is reviewing the performance of its most recent model run. As the Company finalizes the CECL implementation, final decisions made by management may result in a different impact than that stated above for financial statement and disclosure purposes. ASU 2020-03, "Codification Improvement to Financial Instruments." ASU 2020-03 clarifies that all entities are required to provide the fair value option disclosures in paragraphs 825-10-50-24 through 50-32 of the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). ASU 2020-03 also clarifies that the contractual term of a net investment in a lease determined in accordance with ASC 842, “Leases,” should be the contractual term used to measure expected credit losses under ASC 326, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.” ASU 2020-03 also addresses amendments to ASC 860-20, “Transfers and Servicing – Sales of Financial Assets,” to clarify that when an entity regains control of financial assets sold, an allowance for credit losses should be recorded in accordance with ASC 326. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendment are the same as the effective date and transition requirements in ASU 2016-13. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2020-03 on its consolidated financial statements. ASU 2022-01, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)”: ASU 2022-01 was issued to clarify the guidance in ACS 815 on fair value hedge accounting of interest rate risk for portfolios and financial assets. Among other things, the amended guidance established the “last-of-layer” method for making the fair value hedge accounting for these portfolios more accessible and renamed that method the portfolio the “portfolio layer” method. ASU 2022-01 is effective January 1, 2023 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. ASU 2022-02, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326)”: eliminates the guidance on troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) and requires entities to evaluate all loan modifications to determine if they result in a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. ASU 2022-02 requires that entities disclose if they result in a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. ASU 2022-02 also requires that entities disclose current-period gross charge-offs by year of origination for loans and leases. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2022-02 on its consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied. The majority of the Company’s revenue-generating transactions are not subject to ASC 606, including revenue generated from financial instruments, such as loans, letters of credit, derivatives and investment securities, as well as revenue related to mortgage servicing activities, as these activities are subject to other GAAP discussed elsewhere within the Company’s disclosures. Descriptions of the Company’s revenue-generating activities that are within the scope of ASC 606, which are presented in its income statements as components of non-interest income are as follows:

Restrictions on Cash | Restrictions on Cash Federal law required depository institutions to hold reserves in the form of vault cash or, if vault cash is insufficient, in the form of a deposit maintained with a Federal Reserve Bank. In response to COVID-19, on March 15, 2020, the FRB announced the reduction of the reserve requirement ratios to zero percent, effective March 26, 2020. This action eliminated the reserve requirement for depository institutions to help support lending to households and businesses. In addition, the Company’s contract with its current electronic funds transfer (“EFT”) provider requires a predetermined balance be maintained in a settlement account controlled by the provider equal to the Company’s average daily net settlement position multiplied by four days. The required balance was $262 thousand and $156 thousand as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This balance can be adjusted periodically to reflect actual transaction volume and seasonal factors. |

Leases | Operating leases in which the Bank is the lessee and the term is greater than 12 months, are recorded as right of use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities, and are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets and Accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively, on the Bank’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Bank does not currently have any finance leases in which it is the lessee. Operating lease ROU assets represent the Bank’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement based on the present value of the remaining lease payments using a discount rate that represents the Bank’s incremental borrowing rate. The borrowing rate for each lease is unique based on the lease term. Operating lease expense, which is comprised of amortization of the ROU asset and the implicit interest accreted on the operating lease liability, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and is recorded in Occupancy expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Bank’s leases relate primarily to bank branches, office space and equipment with remaining lease terms of generally 1 to 10 years. Certain lease arrangements contain extension options which typically range from 1 to 5 years at the then fair market rental rates. Certain real estate leases have lease payments that adjust based on annual changes in the Consumer Price Index ("CPI"). The leases that are dependent upon CPI are initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date and are included in the measurement of the lease liability. |
