Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis segregated by fair value hierarchy level at September 30, 2012 are summarized below:

	Fair value hierarchy levels						Balance as of
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		September 30, 2012
	(in thousands)
Assets
Impaired loans	$	—	$	—	$	9,444	$	9,444
Real estate acquired through foreclosure		—		—		7,619		7,619
Mortgage servicing rights		—		864		—		864

The following table presents additional quantitative information about assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and for which the Bank has utilized Level 3 inputs to determine fair value at September 30, 2012:

		Fair value		Valuation	Unobservable	Range of
Description		estimate		technique	Input	inputs
	(in thousands)
Impaired loans		$	9,444	Appraisal of collateral	Discount rate to reflect current market conditions and ultimate recoverability		5%-15	%
Real estate acquired through foreclosure			7,619	Appraisal of collateral	Discount rate to reflect current market conditions and liquidation expenses		5%-20	%

The fair value of impaired loans and real estate acquired through foreclosure is generally determined through independent appraisals of the underlying collateral, which generally include level 3 inputs which are not identifiable. Appraisals may be adjusted by management for qualitative factors such as economic conditions and estimated liquidation expenses. The range and weighted average of liquidation expenses are presented as a percent of the appraised value.
