ORRSTOWN FINANCIAL SERVICES, INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2011
NOTE 1. | SUMMARY OF CONSOLIDATED SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Nature of Operations - Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. (the Company) is a financial holding company whose primary activity consists of supervising its wholly-owned subsidiary, Orrstown Bank (the Bank). The Company operates through its office headquartered in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania. Orrstown Bank provides services through its network of offices in Franklin, Cumberland and Perry Counties of Pennsylvania and in Washington County, Maryland. The Bank engages in lending services for commercial loans, residential loans, commercial mortgages and various forms of consumer lending. Deposit services include checking, savings, time and money market deposits. The Bank also provides investment and brokerage services through its Orrstown Financial Advisors division. The Bank has twenty-one branches located in Shippensburg (2), Carlisle (5), Spring Run, Orrstown, Chambersburg (3), Mechanicsburg (2), Camp Hill, Greencastle, Newport (2), Duncannon, and New Bloomfield, Pennsylvania and Hagerstown, Maryland. The Company and its subsidiary are subject to the regulation of certain federal and state agencies and undergo periodic examinations by such regulatory authorities.
Basis of Presentation - The unaudited financial statements of the Company and its subsidiary are presented for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. However, the unaudited information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim period. Information presented at December 31, 2010 is condensed from audited year-end financial statements. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto, included in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for losses on loans and the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans. In connection with the determination of the allowance for losses on loans and foreclosed real estate, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties.
While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans and foreclosed real estate, future additions to the allowances may be necessary based on changes in local economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Companys allowance for losses on loans and foreclosed real estate. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments concerning information available to them at the time of their examination. Because of these factors, managements estimate of credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio and the related allowance may change in the near term.
Subsequent Events - GAAP establishes standards for accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued. The subsequent events principle sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition in the financial statements, identifies the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and the disclosures that should be made about events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date. In preparing these financial statements, the Company evaluated the events and transactions that occurred after September 30, 2011, through the date these financial statements were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission).
- 8 -
Concentration of Credit Risk - The Company grants agribusiness, commercial, residential and consumer loans to customers in its market area. Although the Company maintains a diversified loan portfolio, a significant portion of its customers ability to honor their contracts is dependent upon economic sectors for construction contractors, residential and non-residential building operators, sales finance, sub-dividers and developers. Management evaluates each customers creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if collateral is deemed necessary by the Company upon the extension of credit, is based on managements credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies, but generally includes real estate and equipment.
The types of securities the Company invests in are included in Note 2, Securities Available for Sale, and the type of lending the Company engages in are included in Note 3 Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan Losses.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash, balances due from banks, federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits with banks all of which have original maturities of 90 days or less.
Loans Held for Sale Loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at lower of aggregate cost or fair value (LOCM). Gains and losses on loan sales (sales proceeds minus carrying value) are recorded in non-interest income.
Securities - Certain debt securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held to maturity and recorded at amortized cost. Trading securities are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value included in earnings. As of the periods presented, the Company has no held to maturity or trading securities. Securities not classified as held to maturity or trading, including equity securities with readily determinable fair values, are classified as available for sale and recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income. Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method.
The Company follows accounting guidance related to recognition and presentation of other-than-temporary impairment (Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification FASB ASC 320-10). This accounting guidance specifies that (a) if a company does not have the intent to sell a debt security prior to recovery and (b) it is more likely than not that it will not have to sell the debt security prior to recovery; the security would not be considered other-than-temporarily impaired unless there is a credit loss. When an entity does not intend to sell the security, and it is more likely than not, the entity will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis, it will recognize the credit component of an other-than-temporary impairment of a debt security in earnings and the remaining portion in other comprehensive income.
The Company had no debt securities it deemed to be other than temporarily impaired for the periods presented.
The Companys securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market risk, currency and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investments and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investments, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term would materially affect investment assets reported in the consolidated financial statements.
For equity securities, when the Company has decided to sell an impaired available-for-sale security and the entity does not expect the fair value of the security to fully recover before the expected time of sale, the security is deemed other-than-temporarily impaired in the period in which the decision to sell is made. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the impairment is deemed other than temporary even if a decision to sell has not been made.
Loans - The Company grants commercial, mortgage, and consumer loans to its customers located principally in south-central Pennsylvania and northern Maryland. The ability of the Companys debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the real estate and general economic conditions in this area.
Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off generally are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and amortized as a yield adjustment over the respective term of the loan.
For all classes of loans, the accrual of interest income on loans, including impaired loans, ceases when principal or interest is past due 90 days or more or immediately if, in the opinion of management, full collection is unlikely.
- 9 -
Interest will continue to accrue on loans past due 90 days or more if the collateral is adequate to cover principal and interest, and the loan is in the process of collection. Interest accrued, but not collected, as of the date of placement on nonaccrual status, is reversed and charged against current interest income, unless fully collateralized. Subsequent payments received are either applied to the outstanding principal balance or recorded as interest income, depending upon managements assessment of the ultimate collectability of principal. Loans are returned to accrual status, for all loan classes, when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms of the note for a reasonable period of time, generally nine months, and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is reasonably assured. Past due status is based on contractual terms of the loan for all loan classes.
Loans the terms of which are modified are classified as troubled debt restructurings if a concession was granted, for legal or economic reasons, related to a debtors financial difficulties. Concessions granted under a troubled debt restructuring typically involve a temporary deferral of scheduled loan payments, an extension of a loans stated maturity date, temporary reduction in interest rates, or below market rates. If a modification occurs while the loan is on accruing status, it will continue to accrue interest under the modified terms. Nonaccrual troubled debt restructurings are restored to accrual status if scheduled principal and interest payments, under the modified terms, are current for nine months after modification, and the borrower continues to demonstrate its ability to meet the modified terms. Troubled debt restructurings are evaluated individually for impairment if they have been restructured during the most recent calendar year, or if they are not performing according to their modified terms.
Allowance for Loan Losses - The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.
The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon managements periodic review of the collectability of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrowers ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.
See Note 3, Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan Losses, for additional details.
Stock Compensation Plans - The Company has stock option plans for its employees and non-employee directors. Stock compensation accounting guidance (FASB ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation) requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost is measured based on the grant date fair value of the stock options, using a Black-Scholes model. Compensation cost for all stock awards are calculated and recognized over the employees service period, generally defined as the vesting period.
Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with income tax accounting guidance (FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes). The income tax accounting guidance results in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to the taxable income or excess of deductions over revenues. The Company determines deferred income taxes using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur. For interim financial reporting, the Company computes its income tax expense (benefit) based on its estimated annual effective tax rate for the year, as noted in FASB ASC 740-270-25.
Earnings Per Share - Basic earnings (loss) per share represent income (loss) available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflect the additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate solely to outstanding stock options. Treasury shares are not deemed outstanding for earnings per share calculations.
Comprehensive Income - Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss) and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized gains on securities available for sale, and unrealized losses related to factors other than credit on debt securities and unrealized gains and losses on cash flow hedges.
Derivative Instruments - GAAP requires that all derivatives be recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements at their fair values. On the dates that derivative contracts are entered into,
- 10 -
the Company designates derivatives as (a) hedges of fair values of recognized assets or liabilities or of unrecognized firm commitments (fair-value hedges); (b) hedges of forecasted transactions or variable cash flows to be received or paid in conjunction with recognized assets or liabilities (cash-flow hedges) or (c) instruments that are held for trading or non-hedging purposes (trading or economic-hedging instruments). For a derivative treated as a fair-value hedge, the effective portion of a change in fair value is recorded as an adjustment to the hedged item. The ineffective portion of the fair-value hedge is recognized in current period earnings. Upon termination of a fair-value hedge of a debt instrument, the resulting gain or loss is amortized to earnings through the maturity date of the debt instrument. For a derivative treated as a cash flow hedge, the ineffective portion of changes in fair value is reported in current period earnings. The effective portion of the cash flow hedge is recorded as an adjustment to the hedged item through other comprehensive income. For a derivative treated as a trading or economic hedging instrument, changes in fair value are reported in current period earnings. Fair values are determined based upon quoted market prices and mathematical models using current and historical data.
The Company formally assesses, both at the hedges inception, and on an on-going basis, whether derivatives used in hedging transactions have been highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items and whether those derivatives are expected to remain highly effective in subsequent periods. The Company discontinues hedge accounting when (a) it determines that a derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in fair value or 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 statement of income.
The Company follows GAAP, regarding disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities, which includes disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entitys financial position, financial performance and cash flows.
Segment Reporting - The Company only operates in one significant segment Community Banking. The Companys non-banking activities are insignificant to the consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications Certain amounts in the 2010 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2011 presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2010-06 amends Subtopic 820-10 to clarify existing disclosures, require new disclosures, and includes conforming amendments to guidance on employers disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. ASU 2010-06 was effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. The new disclosure guidance significantly expanded the existing requirements leading to greater transparency into the companys exposure to credit losses from lending arrangements. The extensive new disclosures of information as of the end of a reporting period was effective for annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010 and has been presented in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Specific disclosures regarding activity that occurred before the issuance of the ASU, such as the allowance roll forward and modification disclosures was required to be adopted for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010, and are also incorporated in Note 3.
In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350), When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts. ASU 2010-28 affects all entities that have recognized goodwill and have one or more reporting units whose carrying amount for purposes of performing Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test is zero or negative. ASU 2010-28 modifies Step 1 so that for those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that impairment may exist. The qualitative factors are consistent with existing guidance, which requires
- 11 -
that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. This guidance is effective for the Company for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. Adoption of ASU 2010-28 guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-2, A Creditors Determination of Whether a Restructuring is a Troubled Debt Restructuring. This guidance clarifies which loan modifications constitute troubled debt restructurings and is intended to assist creditors in determining whether a modification of the terms of a receivable meets the criteria to be considered a troubled debt restructuring, both for the purpose of recording an impairment charge and for disclosure of troubled debt restructurings. In evaluating whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring, a creditor must separately conclude, under the guidance clarified by ASU 2011-2, that both of the following exist: (a) the restructuring constitutes a concession; and (b) the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. As allowed by the guidance, the Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2011-2 in the quarter ending June 30, 2011. See further discussion in Note 3 Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan Losses.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-5, Presentation of Comprehensive Income. This guidance amends existing guidance to improve the comparability of financial reporting and to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. The guidance eliminated the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the changes in shareholders equity and requires all changes in shareholders equity to be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The guidance also requires entities to present all reclassification adjustments from other comprehensive income to net income on the face of the financial statements. The guidance did not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of ASU 2011-5 will have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Intangibles Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) Testing Goodwill for Impairment. ASU 2011-08 allows companies to assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more-likely-than-not that goodwill might be impaired whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test required under current accounting standards. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance, but does not expect the adoption will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company had 50 securities and 126 securities at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, in which the amortized cost exceeds their fair values, as discussed below.
U.S. Government Sponsored Enterprises (GSE). Seven GSE securities, including mortgage-backed securities, have amortized costs which exceed their fair values, all of which are in the less than 12 months category at September 30, 2011. At December 31, 2010, the Company had 50 GSE securities with unrealized losses, all of which were in the less than 12 months category. These unrealized losses have been caused by a rise in interest rates from the time the securities were purchased. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost bases of the investments. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2011 or at December 31, 2010.
State and Political Subdivisions. Five state and political subdivision securities have amortized costs which exceed their fair value, including 1 of which has been for greater than 12 months at September 30, 2011. At December 31, 2010, 63 state and political subdivision securities had unrealized losses, 3 of which were greater than 12 months. These unrealized losses have been caused by a rise in interest rates from the time the securities were purchased. The security which has had an unrealized loss for over 24 months at September 30, 2011 is a California issue that is carrying a low market value due to it being a zero coupon bond, which is hindered by the states economic issues, and not the underlying credit worthiness of the issuer. This security carries an investment grade rating. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2011 or at December 31, 2010.
Equity Securities. Thirty-eight equity securities have cost which exceeds their fair value, including 1 of which has been greater than 12 month at September 30, 2011. At December 31, 2010, 13 equity securities had unrealized losses, of which 7 had unrealized losses for greater than 12 months. These securities encompass various industries, including financial, industrial, consumer, energy, health care and a large cap fund, In considering whether the equity securities are other-than-temporarily impaired, management reviews the severity and duration of decline in fair value, research reports, analysts recommendations, credit rating changes, news stories and other relevant information. Management
- 13 -
believes the equity securities are not other-than-temporarily impaired and their fair values will equal or exceed our cost bases within a reasonable period of time. Since these companies are considered viable and carry the possibility of price appreciation in the future, impairments are considered temporary. The Company recorded no other than temporary impairment expense on equity securities for the quarters or nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.
The amortized cost and fair values of securities available for sale at September 30, 2011 by contractual maturity are shown below. Contractual maturities will differ from expected maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

NOTE 3. | LOANS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES |
The Banks loan portfolio is broken down into segments to an appropriate level of disaggregation to allow management to monitor the performance by the borrower and to monitor the yield on the portfolio. In 2010, management incorporated the provisions of ASU 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Loan Losses, resulting in a refinement in its portfolio segregation. Consistent with the standard, the segments were further broken down into classes, to allow for differing risk characteristics within a segment.
The risks associated with lending activities differ among the various loan classes, and are subject to the impact of changes in interest rates, market conditions of collateral securing the loans, and general economic conditions. All of these factors may adversely impact the borrowers ability to repay its loans, and impact the associated collateral.
The Company makes various types of commercial real estate loans which have differing levels of credit risk associated with them. Owner-occupied commercial real estate loans are generally dependent upon the successful operation of the borrowers business, with the cash flows generated from the business being the primary source of repayment of the loan. If the business suffers a downturn in sales or profitability, the borrowers ability to repay the loan could be in jeopardy. In order to minimize this credit risk, the Company has conservative underwriting standards which include the credit worthiness of the borrower, a limitation on loan amounts to 75% of the value of the property securing the loan, and strong debt service coverage ratios.
Non-owner occupied and multi-family commercial real estate loans present a different credit risk to the Company than owner-occupied commercial real estate, as the repayment of the loan is dependent upon the borrowers ability to generate a sufficient level of occupancy to produce rental income that exceeds debt service requirement and operating expenses. Lower occupancy or lease rates may result in reduction in cash flows, which hinder the ability of the borrower to meet debt service requirements, and may result in lower collateral values. The Company generally follows the same underwriting standards for these loans as with owner-occupied commercial real estate, but recognizes the greater risk inherent in these credit relationships in its loan pricing.

Acquisition and development loans consist of 1-4 family residential construction and commercial and land development loans. The risk of loss on these loans is largely dependent on the Companys ability to assess the propertys value at the completion of the project, which should exceed the propertys construction costs. During the construction phase, a number of factors could potentially negatively impact the collateral value, including cost overruns, delays in completing the project, competition, and real estate market conditions which may change based on the supply of similar properties in the area. In the event the collateral value at the completion of the project is not sufficient to cover the outstanding loan balance, the Company must rely upon other repayment sources, including the guarantors of the project or other collateral securing the loan. The Company attempts to mitigate credit risk through strict underwriting standards including evaluation of the credit worthiness of the borrower and their success in other projects, aggressive release fees, loan-to-value ratios not to exceed 75%, and continual monitoring of the project during its construction phase to determine the impact that overruns and delays may have on the project.
Commercial and industrial loans include advances to local and regional businesses for general commercial purposes and include permanent and short-term working capital, machinery and equipment financing, and may be either in the form of lines of credit or term loans. Although commercial and industrial loans may be unsecured to our highest rated borrowers, the majority of these loans are secured by the borrowers accounts receivable, inventory and machinery and equipment. In a majority of these loans, the collateral also includes the business real estate or the business owners personal real estate or assets. Commercial and industrial loans present credit exposure to the Company, as they are more susceptible to risk of loss during a downturn in the economy, as borrowers may have greater difficulty in meeting their debt service requirements and the value of the collateral may decline. The Company attempts to mitigate this risk through strict underwriting standards, including evaluating the credit worthiness of the borrower and to the extent available, credit ratings on the business. Additionally, monitoring of the loans through annual renewals and meetings with the borrowers are common. However, these procedures cannot eliminate the risk of loss associated with commercial and industrial lending.
The Company originates loans to its retail customers, including fixed-rate and adjustable first lien mortgage loans with the underlying 1-4 family owner-occupied residential property securing the credit. The Companys risk exposure is minimized in these types of loans through the evaluation of the credit worthiness of the borrower, including credit scores and debt-to-income ratios, and underwriting standards which limits the loan-to-value ratio to generally no more than 80%, unless the borrower obtains private mortgage insurance.
Home equity loans, including term loans and lines of credit, present a slightly higher risk to the Company than 1-4 family first liens, as these loans can be first or second liens on 1-4 family owner occupied residential property, but can have loan-to-value ratios of no greater than 90% of the value of the real estate taken as collateral. The credit worthiness of the borrower is considered including credit scores and debt-to-income ratios, which generally cannot exceed 38%.
Installment and other loans credit risk are mitigated through conservative underwriting standards, including the evaluation of the credit worthiness of the borrower, including credit scores and debt-to-income ratios, and if secured, the collateral value of the assets. As these loans can be unsecured or secured by assets the value of which may depreciate quickly or may fluctuate, they present a greater risk to the Company than 1-4 family residential loans.

In order to monitor ongoing risk associated with its loan portfolio and specific credits within the segments, management uses an eight point internal grading system. The first four rating categories, representing the lowest risk to the Bank, are combined and given a Pass rating. The Special Mention category includes loans that have potential weaknesses that may, if not monitored or corrected, weaken the asset or inadequately protect the Banks position at some future date. These assets pose elevated risk, but their weakness does not yet justify a more severe, or criticized rating. Management generally follows regulatory definitions in assigning criticized ratings to loans, including substandard, doubtful or loss. Substandard loans are classified as they have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses that jeopardize liquidation of the debt. These loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Substandard loans include loans that management has determined not to be impaired, as well as loans considered to be impaired. A doubtful loan has a high probability of total or substantial loss, but because of specific pending events that may strengthen the asset, its classification of loss is deferred. Loss assets are considered uncollectible, as the underlying borrowers are often in bankruptcy, have suspended debt repayments, or ceased business operations. Once a loan is classified as Loss, there is little prospect of collecting the loans principal or interest and it is generally written off.
The Bank has a loan review policy and program which is designed to reduce and control risk in the lending function. The Credit Administration Committee, comprised of members of the Board, is charged with the overall credit quality and risk exposure of the Companys loan portfolio. This includes the monitoring of the lending activities of all bank personnel with respect to underwriting and processing new loans and the timely follow-up and corrective action for loans showing signs of deterioration in quality. The loan review program provides the Bank with an internal, independent review of the Banks loan portfolio on an ongoing basis. Generally, consumer and residential mortgage loans are included in the Pass categories unless a specific action, such as extended delinquencies, bankruptcy, repossession or death of the borrower occurs, which heightens awareness as to a possible credit event.
Loan reviews are completed annually on all commercial relationships with a committed loan balance in excess of $750,000, with ratification of the rating from the Board of Directors Credit Administration Committee for loans between $750,000 - $1,000,000. Loans reviewed in excess of $1,000,000 are presented to the Credit Administration Committee with a formal review and rating. All relationships rated Substandard, Doubtful or Loss are reviewed by the Credit Administration Committee on a quarterly basis, including reaffirmation of the rating, review of detailed collateral analysis and the development of an action plan. In addition to the policy guidelines noted above, the Company expanded its review coverage during the second and third quarters of 2011 in light of softness in overall economic conditions and deterioration of underlying collateral securing lending relationships. As a result, all commercial real estate, construction and development loans, and commercial loans in excess of $500,000, representing over 75% coverage of these portfolios, have been reviewed and assigned a loan rating.

Classified loans may also be evaluated for impairment. For commercial real estate, acquisition and development and commercial and industrial loans, a loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Generally, loans that are more than 90 days past due are assigned a Substandard rating. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrowers prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Nonaccrual loans in the commercial and commercial real estate portfolios are, by definition, deemed to be impaired. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial, construction and restructured loans by either the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loans effective interest rate, the loans obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A loan is collateral dependent if the repayment of the loan is expected to be provided solely by the underlying collateral. For loans that are deemed to be impaired for extended periods of time, periodic updates on fair values are obtained, which may include updated appraisals. The updated fair values will be incorporated into the impairment analysis as of the next reporting period. In the event an updated appraisal that requires a higher impairment reserve is received after a reporting period, but prior to the issuance of the financial statements, an evaluation is made as to the significance of the difference and whether the amounts need to be reflected in the financial statements not yet issued.
Loan charge-offs, which may include, from time-to-time, a partial charge-off, are taken on an impaired loan that is collateral dependent if the loans carrying balance exceeds its collaterals appraised value, the loan has been identified as uncollectible, and it is deemed to be a confirmed loss. Typically, impaired loans with a charge-off or partial charge-off will continue to be considered impaired, unless the note is split into two, and management expects the performing note to continue to perform and is adequately secured. The second, or non-performing note, would be charged-off. As of the periods presented, the Company has no loans to borrowers that resulted from splitting impaired loans into multiple notes. Further, an impaired loan with a partial charge-off may continue to have an impairment reserve on it after the partial charge-off, if factors warrant.
As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, nearly all of the Companys impaired loans extent of impairment was measured based on the estimated fair value of the collateral securing the credit, except for troubled debt restructurings. By definition, troubled debt restructurings are considered impaired, however, nearly all restructured loans impairment was determined based on discounted cash flows. For real estate loans, collateral generally consists of commercial real estate, but in the case of commercial and industrial loans, it would also consist of accounts receivable, inventory, equipment or other business assets. Commercial and industrial loans may also have real estate collateral.
At the time a real estate-secured loan is deemed impaired, management determines whether an updated certified appraisal of the real estate is necessary to assist in determining the extent of an impairment reserve, if any. The decision, whether an updated appraisal is required, takes into consideration the age of the most recent appraisal, the loan-to-value ratio based on the original certified appraisal, the Companys recent experience and knowledge of market conditions, recent list prices or broker opinions, the condition of the property, and environmental factors. If market

conditions have changed significantly from the date of the most recent appraisal, an updated appraisal will be obtained. As of October 1, 2011, the Company amended its policy, which now requires annual updated appraisals for criticized loans in excess of $250,000 which will be used for future impairment analysis. The as is value provided in the appraisal is often used as the fair value of the collateral in determining impairment, unless circumstances, such as subsequent improvements, approvals, or other circumstances dictate that another value provided by the appraiser is more appropriate.
Generally, impaired loans secured by real estate were measured at fair value using certified real estate appraisals that had been completed within the last year. Appraised values are further discounted for estimated costs to sell the property and other selling considerations to arrive at the properties fair value.
In those situations in which it is determined an updated appraisal is not required for loans individually evaluated for impairment, fair values are based on one or a combination of the following approaches. In those situations in which a combination of approaches is considered, the factor that carries the most consideration will be the one management believes is warranted. The approaches are as follows:
| Original appraisal - if the original appraisal provides a strong loan-to-value (generally 80% or lower) and, after consideration of market conditions and knowledge of the property and area, it is determined by the loan review staff that there has not been a significant deterioration in the collateral value, the original certified appraised value will be used. Discounts as deemed appropriate for selling costs are factored into the appraised value in arriving at fair value. |
| Discounted cash flows - In limited cases, discounted cash flows may be used on projects in which the collateral is liquidated to reduce the borrowings outstanding, and is used to validate collateral values derived from other approaches. |
Collateral on certain impaired loans is not limited to real estate, and may include accounts receivable, inventory, equipment or other business assets. Estimated fair values are determined based on borrowers financial statements, inventory ledgers, accounts receivable agings or appraisals from individuals with knowledge in the business. Stated balances are generally discounted for the age of the financial information or the quality of the assets. In determining fair value, liquidation discounts are applied to this collateral based on existing loan evaluation policies.
The Company distinguishes Substandard loans on both an impaired and non-impaired basis, as it places less emphasis on a loans classification, and increased reliance on whether the loan was performing in accordance with the contractual terms. Substandard classification does not automatically meet the definition of impaired. A substandard credit is one that is inadequately protected by current sound worth, paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged, if any. Extensions of credit so classified have well-defined weaknesses which may jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard credits, does not have to exist in individual extensions of credit classified substandard. As a result, the Company revised its methodology in its evaluation of certain accruing commercial real estate, acquisition and development and commercial and industrial loans rated substandard collectively for impairment as opposed to evaluating these loans individually for impairment. Although we believe these loans have well defined weaknesses and meet the definition of substandard, they are generally performing and management has concluded that it is likely it will be able to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.
Larger groups of smaller balance homogenous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Bank does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement due to financial difficulties of the borrower.

In the second quarter of 2011, the Company early adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2011-02, A Creditors Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring (ASU No. 2011-02). As a result of adopting the amendments in ASU No. 2011-02, the Company reassessed terms and conditions on restructured loans that had been completed in the past several months. In many instances, the Company was able to increase the interest rate on the loans and obtain additional collateral support for the borrowings, in exchange for extension of the loans terms. However, the new interest rate charged was considered to be at a below-market rate, which was determined to be a concession to its borrowers that were experiencing financial difficulties. Prior to their classification as troubled debt restructurings, these loans had been collectively evaluated for impairment consistent with the guidance in Subtopic 450-20. Upon identifying these receivables as troubled debt restructurings, the Company identified them as impaired under the guidance in Section 310-10-35. The amendments in ASU No. 2011-02 require prospective application of the impairment measurement guidance in Section 310-10-35 for those receivables newly identified as impaired. As a result of the adoption, the 2011 earnings have been negatively impacted by $3.4 million, representing the impairment valuation reserve at September 30, 2011 calculated under Section 310-10-35. Previous to the adoption of ASU No. 2011-02, a reserve was established on these loans under a general allowance methodology.

The loans presented above were considered troubled debt restructurings as the result of the Company agreeing to below market interest rates, allowing the loan to remain on interest only status, or for residential mortgage loans, a temporary reduction in interest rates for periods not exceeding 12 months in order to assist the borrowers to improve cash flows during such periods. No additional commitments have been made to borrowers whose loans are considered troubled debt restructurings. There were no modifications during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010.
Management further monitors the performance and credit quality of the loan portfolio by analyzing the length of time a portfolio is past due, by aggregating loans based on its delinquencies. The following table presents the classes of loan portfolio summarized by aging categories of performing loans and nonaccrual loans as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

The Bank maintains the allowance for loan losses at a level believed adequate by management to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio. It is established and maintained through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Quarterly, management assesses the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses utilizing a defined methodology, which considers specific credit evaluations of impaired loans as discussed above, past loan loss historical experience, and qualitative factors. Management believes the approach properly addresses the requirements of ASC Section 310-10-35 for loans individually identified as impaired, and ASC Subtopic 450-20 for loans collectively evaluated for impairment, and other bank regulatory guidance.
For each loan class presented above, general allowances are provided for loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment, which are based on quantitative factors, principally historical loss trends for the respective loan class, adjusted for qualitative factors. As of December 31, 2010, the historical loss factor was based on average charge-offs for the last 8 quarters (e.g. January 1, 2009 December 31, 2010), whereas prior to December 31, 2010, the historical loss factor was based on an equally weighted rolling 12 quarters. Effective December 31, 2010, for loans rated special mention and substandard not deemed impaired, a weighted average rolling 8 quarters average charge-off percentage on the related graded loan type, with a two-third weight to the most recent four quarters, and a one-third weight for the furthest four quarters was utilized. For non-rated loans evaluated collectively for impairment, the charge-off factor for the last 8 quarters is factored into the reserve allocation. The refinement to the methodology was made as management determined that the most recent eight quarters, and in particular, the most recent four quarters for rated loans, is a better reflection of the losses inherent in the loan portfolio at December 31, 2010. Additional reserve allocations of approximately $730,000 resulted due to the change to the most recent 8 quarter history, which management believes is a better reflection of losses inherent in the portfolio based on recent loss history. In making this determination, management considered current economic and real estate conditions, trends in historical charge-off percentages at the Company as well as peers, and feedback from regulators.
In addition to the quantitative analysis, additional reserves are allocated on loans collectively evaluated for impairment based on additional qualitative factors. The qualitative factors used by management to adjust the historical loss percentage to the anticipated loss allocation, which range from 0 10 basis point per factor, include:
National and local economic trends (five factors) Ratios and factors considered include trends in the consumer price index (CPI); unemployment rates; housing price index; housing starts compared to the prior year; and bankruptcy rates.
Credit quality trends (four factors) Ratios and factors considered include trends in delinquency ratios; 90 days plus and nonaccrual loans; average net loan losses to loans outstanding; and classified loans to total loans.
Underwriting policies (three factors) Factors considered including the number of exceptions to loan policy; supervisory loan to value exceptions; and the instances of repeat criticisms of ratings.
- 21 -
Experience, ability and depth of lending and loan review staff (four factors) Factors considered include the years experience of the lending and loan review staff; turnover of the staff; instances of loan grade migration; and the penetration of loans reviewed.
Other (two factors) Other factors considered include concentrations of credit from loan type or shifts in industry or geographic region.

NOTE 4. | DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITY |
The Company entered into three rate swap agreements during 2008 and 2009 related to fixed rate loans. The Company used these interest rate swaps to reduce interest rate risks and to manage interest income. By entering into these agreements, the Company converted floating rate assets into fixed rate assets. These interest rate swap agreements are considered cash flow hedge derivative instruments that qualified for hedge accounting. A portion of the amount included in other comprehensive income was reclassified from other comprehensive income to the appropriate income statement line item as net settlements occur.
The notional amounts of the interest rate swaps are not exchanged and do not represent exposure to credit loss. In the event of default by a counter party, the risk in these transactions is the cost of replacing the agreements at current market rates. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company sold its interest rate swaps and recognized $791,000 and $778,000 in gains on the sale, which are included in the ineffective portion in the following table, once it no longer qualified as a hedge. For the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, $673,000 and $0 in gains were recognized in the gain on sale.
The balances of the derivative instruments on the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2010 are as follows:

NOTE 5. | SHAREHOLDERS EQUITY AND REGULATORY CAPITAL |
On February 9, 2010, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the Commission that provided the Company with the ability to raise capital, from time to time, up to an aggregate of $80,000,000, through the sale of stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants and other securities. The Company completed a public stock offering of 1,481,481 shares of common stock at a price of $27.00 per share, for gross proceeds of approximately $40,000,000 during the first quarter of 2010. Net proceeds after underwriting commissions and expenses were $37,585,000. The Company believes that with this additional capital, it positions itself well to weather the economy and take advantage of future opportunities that may arise. The Company has no current plans to issue additional shares of common stock.

Stock options for 307,000 and 216,000 shares of common stock were not considered for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 as they were anti-dilutive. The shares were anti-dilutive either due to the Company recognizing a net loss for the period or the options exercise price exceeded the average market value.

NOTE 8. | OTHER COMMITMENTS |
In the normal course of business, the Bank makes various commitments and incurs certain contingent liabilities which are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements. These commitments include various guarantees and commitments to extend credit. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The Companys subsidiary bank evaluates each customers credit-worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary upon extension of credit, is based on managements credit evaluation of the customer. Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written are conditional commitments to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The Bank holds collateral supporting those commitments when deemed necessary by management. At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, $27,424,000 and $29,558,000 of performance standby letters of credit have been issued. The Company does not anticipate any losses as a result of these transactions.
NOTE 9. | FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES |
Fair Value Measurements under generally accepted accounting principles defines fair value, describes a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements by establishing a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure the assets or liabilities fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the classification is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the asset or liability. Classification of assets and liabilities within the hierarchy considers the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability and transparency of the assumptions used to determine fair value.
The three levels are defined as follows: Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active or by model-based techniques in which all significant inputs are observable in the market for the asset or liability, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3-the valuation methodology is derived from model-based techniques in which at least one significant input is unobservable to the fair value measurement and based on the Companys own assumptions about market participants assumptions.
- 25 -
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured on a recurring basis at estimated fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:
Securities
Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities would include highly liquid government bonds, mortgage products and exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, securities are classified within Level 2 and fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flow. Level 2 securities would include U.S. agency securities, mortgage-backed agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain corporate, asset backed and other securities. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. All of the Companys securities are classified as available for sale.
Interest Rate Swaps
Cash flow interest rate swaps are classified within Level 2 with fair values determined by quoted market prices and mathematical models using current and historical data.
The Company had no fair value liabilities at September 30, 2011 or December 31, 2010.
A summary of assets at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, measured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis were as follows:

Certain financial assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost or fair value accounting or write-down of individual assets.
The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain financial assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the financial statements.
Impaired Loans
Loans are designated as impaired when, in the judgment of management based on current information and events, it is probable that all amounts due, according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, will not be collected. The measurement of loss associated with impaired loans can be based on either the observable market price of the loan or the fair value of the collateral. Fair value is measured based on the value of the collateral securing the loan, less estimated costs to sell. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory, and accounts receivable. The value of the real estate collateral is determined utilizing an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser outside of the Company using observable market data (Level 2). However, if the collateral is a house or building in the process of construction or if an appraisal of the real estate property is older than two years, then the fair value is considered Level 3. The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal, if deemed significant, or the net book value on the applicable business financial statements if not considered significant using observable market data. Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivables collateral are based on financial statement balances or aging reports (Level 3). Impaired loans with an allocation to the allowance for loan losses are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan losses on the consolidated statement of income. Specific allocations to the allowance for loan losses were $7,665,000 and $4,503,000 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
Foreclosed Real Estate Owned
Other real estate property acquired through foreclosure is initially recorded at fair value of the property at the transfer date less estimated selling cost. Subsequently, other real estate owned is carried at the lower of its carrying value or the fair value less estimated selling cost. Fair value is usually determined based upon an independent third-party appraisal of the property or occasionally upon a recent sales offer. There were nine other real estate owned properties with cumulative write-downs totaling $210,000 at September 30, 2011, and three properties with cumulative write-downs totaling $123,000 at December 31, 2010.
Mortgage Servicing Rights
The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is estimated to be equal to its carrying value, unless the quarterly valuation model calculates the present value of the estimated net servicing income is less than its carrying value, in which case a lower of cost or market (LOCM) charge is taken. In the third quarter of 2011 and the fourth quarter of 2010, lower of cost or market charges of $100,000 and $200,000 were taken on the mortgage servicing right portfolio, and as such, are carried at fair value on those dates. Due to increases in mortgage servicing rights values, the fourth quarter 2010 LOCM reserve was reversed in the first quarter of 2011.
A summary of assets at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis is as follows:

Fair values of financial instruments
The Company meets the requirements for disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments. Certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments are excluded from disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented do not represent the underlying value of the Company.
In addition to those disclosed above, the following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair values of financial instruments as disclosed herein:
Cash, Due from Banks, Short-Term Investments, Interest Bearing Deposits with Banks and Federal Funds Sold
The carrying amounts of cash, due from banks, short-term investments, interest bearing deposits with banks and federal funds sold approximate their fair value.
Loans Held for Sale
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. These loans typically consist of one-to-four family residential loans originated for sale in the secondary market. Fair value is based on the price secondary markets are currently offering for similar loans using observable market data which is not materially different than cost due to the short duration between origination and sale.
Loans Receivable
For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and have no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values for fixed rate loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered in the market for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality.
Restricted Investment in Bank Stock
These investments are carried at cost. The Company is required to maintain minimum investment balances in these stocks, which are not actively traded and therefore have no readily determinable market value.
Deposit Liabilities
The fair values disclosed for demand deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (that is, their carrying amounts). The carrying amounts of variable-rate, fixed-term money market accounts and certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date. Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposits and IRAs are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market to a schedule of aggregated expected maturities on time deposits.
Short-Term Borrowings
The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased, borrowings under repurchase agreements, and other short-term borrowings maturing within 90 days approximate their fair values. Fair values of other short-term borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the Companys current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
Long-Term Debt
The fair value of the Companys fixed rate long-term borrowings is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the Companys current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The carrying amounts of variable-rate long-term borrowings approximate their fair values at the reporting date.
Accrued Interest
The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate their fair values.
Off-Balance-Sheet Instruments
The Company generally does not charge commitment fees. Fees for standby letters of credit and other off-balance-sheet instruments are not significant.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
OVERVIEW
Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. (the Company) is a financial holding Company with a wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Orrstown Bank (the Bank). The following is a discussion of our consolidated financial condition at September 30, 2011 and results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010. Throughout this discussion, the yield on earning assets is stated on a fully taxable-equivalent basis and balances represent average daily balances unless otherwise stated. The discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and Notes thereto presented in this report. Certain prior period amounts, presented in this discussion and analysis, have been reclassified to conform to current period classifications.
Certain statements appearing herein which are not historical in nature are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements refer to a future period or periods, reflecting managements current views as to likely future developments, and use words like may, will, expect, estimate, anticipate or similar terms. Because forward-looking statements involve certain risks, uncertainties and other factors over which the Company has no direct control, actual results could differ materially from those contemplated in such statements. These factors include (but are not limited to) the following: general economic conditions, changes in interest rates, changes in the Companys cost of funds, changes in government monetary policy, changes in government regulation and taxation of financial institutions, including changes resulting from the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and related regulations, changes in the rate of inflation, changes in technology, the intensification of competition within the Companys market area and other similar factors. For a discussion of these forward-looking statements and important factors that could cause results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this Report, see Important Factors Relating to Forward Looking Statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, and Risk Factors contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K as such Risk Factors may be amended or supplemented from time in our filings with the Commission.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Companys consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and follow general practices within the financial services industry in which it operates. Management, in order to prepare the Companys consolidated financial statements, is required to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on information available as of the balance sheet date through the date the financial statements are filed with the Commission. As this information changes, the consolidated financial statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions, and judgments. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments and as
- 29 -
such have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported. Estimates, assumptions, and judgments are necessary when assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value, when a decline in the value of an asset not carried on the financial statements at fair value warrants an impairment write-down or valuation reserve to be established, or when an asset or liability needs to be recorded contingent upon a future event. Carrying assets and liabilities at fair value inherently results in more financial statement volatility. The fair values and the information used to record valuation adjustments for certain assets and liabilities are based either on quoted market prices or are provided by other third-party sources.
The most significant accounting policies followed by the Company are presented in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the other financial statement notes, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the financial statements and how those values are determined. Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the methods, assumptions, and estimates underlying those amounts, the Company has identified the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, evaluation of goodwill for potential impairment, and accounting for income taxes as critical accounting policies.
The allowance for loan losses represents Managements estimate of probable credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires significant judgment and the use of estimates related to the amount and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, estimated losses on pools of homogeneous loans based on historical loss experience, and consideration of current economic trends and conditions, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The loan portfolio also represents the largest asset type on the consolidated balance sheet.
Goodwill and other intangible assets have been recorded on the books of the Company in connection with its acquisitions. Goodwill and other intangible assets are reviewed for potential impairment on an annual basis in the fourth quarter, or more often if events or circumstances indicate that there may be impairment. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level and an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. Various market valuation methodologies are used to determine the fair value of the reporting unit. If the fair values of the reporting units exceed their book values, no write-downs of recorded goodwill are necessary. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its book value, an impairment expense may be required to be recorded to write down the related goodwill to the proper carrying value.
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future effects of temporary differences and tax credits. Enacted tax rates are applied to cumulative temporary differences based on expected taxable income in the periods in which the deferred tax asset or liability is anticipated to be realized. Future tax rate changes could occur that would require the recognition of income or expense in the statement of operations in the period in which they are enacted. Deferred tax assets must be reduced by a valuation allowance if in managements judgment it is more likely than not that some portion of the asset will not be realized. Management may need to modify their judgments in this regard from one period to another should a material change occur in the business environment, tax legislation, or in any other business factor that could impair the Companys ability to benefit from the asset in the future. As of September 30, 2011, Management has concluded that a valuation allowance is not needed on its net deferred tax asset.
Readers of the consolidated financial statements should be aware that the estimates and assumptions used in the Companys current financial statements may need to be updated in future financial presentations for changes in circumstances, business or economic conditions in order to fairly represent the condition of the Company at that time.
SUMMARY OF FINANCIAL RESULTS
The Company recorded net income of $4.3 million for the third quarter of 2011 compared to $4.9 million for the same period in 2010, representing a decrease of $582,000 or 11.9%. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the third quarter of 2011 were $0.54, compared to $0.61 for the third quarter of 2010. On a year-to-date basis, the net loss recorded for the period was $2.5 million for 2011, compared to net income of $12.2 million in 2010. Diluted earnings (loss) per share totaled ($0.31) for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $1.62 in 2010.
Included below are ratios for the return on average tangible assets (ROTA) and return on average tangible equity (ROTE) which exclude intangibles from the balance sheet and related amortization and tax expense from net income due to the associated goodwill and intangibles from the acquisition of companies and purchased deposits.

Supplemental Reporting of Non-GAAP-based Financial Measures
Tangible book value per share is computed by dividing shares outstanding into tangible common equity. Management uses tangible book value per share because it believes such ratio is useful in understanding the Companys capital position and ratios. A reconciliation of book value per share to tangible book value per share is as follows:

The most directly comparable measure is return on average assets and return on average equity, which are calculated using GAAP-based amounts. The Company calculates the return on average tangible assets and equity by excluding the balance of intangible assets and their related amortization expense, net of tax, from the calculation of return on average assets and equity. Management uses the return on average tangible assets and equity to assess the Companys core operating results and believes that this is a better measure of our operating performance as it is based on the Companys tangible assets and capital. Further we believe that by excluding the impact of purchase accounting adjustments it allows for a meaningful comparison with the Companys peers; particularly those that may not have acquired other companies. Lastly, the exclusion of goodwill and other intangible assets is consistent with the treatment by bank regulatory agencies from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios, which excludes these amounts. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for an analysis based on GAAP measures. A reconciliation of return on average assets and equity to the return on average tangible assets and equity, is set forth below.

Tax-equivalent net interest income is a non-GAAP financial measure. Tax-equivalent net interest income is derived from GAAP interest income and net interest income using an assumed tax rate of 35%. We believe the presentation of net interest income on a taxequivalent basis ensures comparability of net interest income arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources and is consistent with industry practice.
The following reconciles net interest income to net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2010
Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 was $4.3 million, compared to net income of $4.9 million for the same quarter in 2010, resulting in diluted earnings per share of $0.54 and $0.61 for the periods, respectively. As a result of the lower net income level in 2011, the Companys return on assets and return on tangible equity ratios declined from 1.36% and 14.03%, respectively, for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 to 1.11% and 12.54%, respectively, for the same period in 2011.
Net Interest Income
The primary component of the Companys revenue is net interest income, which is the difference between interest income and fees on interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities. Earning assets include loans, securities and federal funds sold. Interest bearing liabilities include deposits and borrowed funds. To compare the tax-exempt yields to taxable yields, amounts are adjusted to pretax equivalents based on a 35% federal corporate tax rate.
Net interest income is affected by changes in interest rates, volumes of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the composition of those assets and liabilities. The net interest spread and net interest margin (NIM) are two common statistics related to changes in net interest income. The net interest rate spread represents the difference between the yields earned on interest-earning assets and the rates paid for interest-bearing liabilities. The net interest margin is defined as the ratio of net interest income to average earning assets. Through the use of demand deposits and stockholders equity, the net interest margin exceeds the net interest rate spread, as these funding sources are non-interest bearing.
The Average Balances and Interest Rates table presents net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis, net interest rate spread and net interest margin for the quarters ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.

Net interest income measured on a fully tax equivalent basis, totaled $13.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, a $1.3 million, or 11.0%, increase over 2010. The growth in net interest income came principally through an increase in interest earning assets, which averaged $1.461 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2011, compared to $1.329 billion in 2010. Complementing the growth in interest earning assets was a 4 basis point increase in net interest margin. Despite the low interest rate environment, the Company has been able to manage its blend of interest earnings assets and liabilities so that net interest margin increased slightly from 3.62% for the three months ended September 30, 2010 to 3.66% for the same quarter in 2011. The Company has been able to lower its overall cost of funds to 0.72% for the period, an improvement over the prior years cost of funds of 0.92% and the linked quarters cost of 0.76%.
Average interest bearing deposits increased $138.4 million, or 13.5%, resulting from the Companys overall customer service model, its market position in several attractive markets, and due to the favorable rating the Bank has received from IDC Financial Publishing, Inc. (IDC), an independent bank safety rating agency which uses its unique rankings of financial ratios to determine the quality ratings of financial institutions. This strong rating facilitates the Companys ability to attract time deposits and brokered deposits. Average balance of time deposits of $585.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 exceeded 2010s average balance of $534.5 million by 9.5%. Interest expense decreased $323,000, or 12.2% from $3.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 to $2.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011. The Company recognizes that brokered funds are more volatile funding source than core deposits. However, given the current interest rate environment and the steepness of the interest rate curve, the Company elected to collect these funds and earn a spread on them in order to enhance net interest income during the first half of 2011. Given the increased volatility in brokered deposits, the Company invested a large portion of these amounts in mortgage backed securities, which provide a regular stream of monthly cash flows, and can be used to meet the maturity needs of time and brokered deposits. We have matched cash flows from the debt securities portfolio with nontraditional cash flows to enable us to unwind the strategy if loan demand continues to increase or if the yield curve flattens. As a result of recent regulatory climate around non traditional funding sources, management anticipates it will not utilize brokered deposits as heavily in the future.
Interest income earned on loans on a fully taxable equivalent basis increased from $12.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 to $12.7 million in 2011, a 3.2% increase. The growth in the loan portfolio was the primary reason for the increase in net interest income. Average loans increased $95.9 million, or 10.5%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2010 to September 30, 2011. The increase in average loans is the result of the Companys desire to continue to grow its loan portfolio and deploy its capital. This growth has come principally in some of the Companys less mature markets, in which we have hired additional lending officers, which has increased opportunities in these markets. The growth experienced in the loan portfolio in the second half of 2010, supplemented with the loan demand in the first half of 2011, provided the strong growth in average loan balances. Due to the variable nature of a large portion of the loan portfolio, along with the implementation of interest rate floors as loans renewed, the Company was able to limit the decline in average rate earned on loans. The rate earned on loans was 4.97%, or 36 basis points less than 2010, and partially offset the increase in interest income that resulted from higher average balances. The increase in the Companys nonaccrual loan balance will put pressure on the rate earned on loans in future quarters.
As a result of the increase in its deposit base, the Company has placed less reliance on more costly long-term borrowings. Interest expense on long-term debt has decreased $96,000 from $372,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 to $276,000 in the corresponding quarter in 2011. The reduction in the average daily balance of $15.9 million for 2011 compared to 2010 contributed to reduced interest expense, partially offset by a 10 basis point increase in the average cost.

NOTES: | Yields and interest income on tax-exempt assets have been computed on a fully taxable equivalent basis assuming a 35% tax rate. |
For yield calculation purposes, nonaccruing loans are included in the average loan balance.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2011 totaled $7.9 million, an increase over the third quarter 2010 provision of $1.1 million. The increase in the provision for loan losses over the prior period was attributable to replenishing the allowance for loan losses in response to $9.4 million of charge-offs experienced during the quarter, combined with decreases in asset quality ratios, including elevated levels of nonaccrual loans, restructured loans and delinquencies as noted in Risk Elements below.
Other Income
Noninterest income, excluding securities gains, totaled $6.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $4.9 million in 2010. Included in 2011s noninterest income were the gain on sale of the Companys merchant service business totaling $995,000, included in merchant processing fees, and sale of an interest rate swap in the amount of $673,000, included in other income. Excluding these items, noninterest income remained consistent between the two periods, with some shift to mortgage banking income, offset by less loan related fees received on prepayment penalties, letters of credit fees and other loan services.
Trust department and brokerage income increased $96,000, or 7.3% for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 compared to 2010, principally the result of an increase in the number of accounts under management, and some increased trading due to market conditions.
Securities gains totaled $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $1.1 million in 2010. The difference in gains taken between the two periods was the result of interest rate and market conditions, and the Companys asset liability management strategies.
- 34 -
The Company continues to advertise and market itself in order for consumers to recognize the broad range of financial services and products the Company has to offer, and to increase its brand recognition. Through the use of enhanced technology, the Company expects it will be able to reach a broader market which will allow it to continue to grow its customer base. The Company, in the last half of the year, upgraded one of its electronic delivery systems, through an enhanced web page that allows for direct customer interaction.
Other Expenses
As a result of the growth the Company has experienced, noninterest expenses rose from $9.5 million during the third quarter of 2010 to $10.8 million for the same period in 2011, an increase of $1.3 million, or 13.8%.
The following contributed to the net increase in other expenses:
| Salaries and employee benefits decreased $321,000, from $5.0 million for the third quarter of 2010 to $4.7 million for the third quarter of 2011. The decrease was primarily attributable to the reduction in employee benefit accruals based on the Companys performance, including discretionary executive bonuses and profit sharing accruals. Offsetting the reduction in these accruals was a growth in the number of full-time equivalents from 277 at September 30, 2010 to 313, at September 30, 2011. |
| FDIC insurance increased $385,000, from $305,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 to $690,000 for the same period in 2011. The increase is due to higher deposit balances and increased assessment rates in 2011 compared to 2010. |
| Professional services totaled $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $1.0 million over $122,000 recorded in the same period in 2010. The increase in expenses can be attributed to increased professional services. Professional services include expenses associated with third party loan review assistance, legal and accounting costs associated with the increased complexity of the Company and regulatory issues. |
| Collection and other real estate owned expenses, included in other operating expenses, increased $366,000, from $228,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 to $594,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2011. These expenses have increased as a result of the increase in classified assets with corrective action and work-out plans, in order to mitigate the Companys risk of loss. |
| The remainder of the increase in other expenses is primarily the result of the growth experienced by the Company. |
In order to better understand how other expenses increased in relation to related increases in revenue, operating expense levels are often measured in the financial services industry by the efficiency ratio, which expresses non-interest expense, as a percentage of tax-equivalent net interest income and noninterest income. Despite an increase in noninterest expenses, the Companys efficiency ratio was 52.4% for the quarter ended September 30, 2011, compared to 54.8% in 2010, and improved slightly on a linked quarter basis from 52.6% during the second quarter of 2011.
Income Tax Expense
The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $1.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011, compared to income tax expense of $2.1 million for the same period in 2010. A meaningful comparison of income tax expense to levels of pre-tax income is its effective tax rate, which is less than the 35% federal statutory rate, primarily due to tax-exempt loan and security income, life insurance earnings and tax credits associated with low-income housing and historic projects, offset by certain non-deductible expenses and state income taxes.
The Companys effective tax rate declined to (41.5%) for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 compared to 30.5% for the corresponding prior year period. For interim financial reporting, the Company computes its income tax expense (benefit) based on its estimated effective tax rate for the year, as noted in ASC 740-270-25. Further, interim reporting of income taxes limits the amount of benefit that can be taken to not exceed the projected tax benefit for the year. The tax benefit recorded in the quarter despite pre-tax income in 2011 is the direct result of greater levels of tax-free income as a percentage of estimated taxable income anticipated to be earned for the year. The large provision for loan losses recorded in 2011 results in lower estimated taxable income for the year, and an anticipated benefit.
As a result of utilizing the estimated annual effective tax rate in calculating the income tax benefit, it is anticipated that tax expense for the last quarter of 2011 will remain lower than the historical 2010 levels and should result in minimal expense. By year end, the full income tax benefit of the higher than normal provision for loan losses will be recognized.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 COMPARED TO SEPTEMBER 30, 2010
On a year-to-date basis, the Company incurred a net loss of $2.5 million compared to net income of $12.2 million for the first nine months of 2010, resulting in diluted earnings (loss) per share of ($0.31) and $1.62 for the year-to-date periods, respectively. As a result of the net loss for the 2011 period, the Companys return on assets and return on tangible equity ratios were negative for the year-to-date, compared to 1.23% and 13.57%, respectively, for the same period in 2010.
Net Interest Income
The Average Balances and Interest Rates YTD table presents net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis, net interest rate spread and net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, net interest income measured on a fully tax equivalent basis, increased $5.4 million, or 15.4%, to $40.1 million from $34.8 million in the corresponding period in 2010. The primary reason for the increase in net interest income was an increase in average earning assets from $1.236 billion for the first nine months of 2010 to $1.443 billion in 2011. Offsetting the growth in average interest earning assets was a decline in net interest margin by 3 basis points from 3.72% in 2010 to 3.69% for 2011. The net interest spread for the nine months ending September 30, 2011 was 3.57%, consistent with the 3.58% earned in the same period in 2010.
The largest portion of the increase in interest income was the result of interest earned on the securities portfolio, which totaled $10.3 million on a fully-taxable equivalent basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of 35.5%, or $2.7 million over 2010.
The growth in securities was funded principally through the growth in deposit accounts. Average interest bearing deposits increased $185.6 million, or 19.7%, resulting from the Companys overall customer service model, its market position in several attractive markets, and due to the favorable rating the Bank has received from IDC Financial Publishing, Inc. The average balance of time deposits of $593.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 exceeded 2010s average balance of $486.8 million by 21.9%. However, interest expense on time deposits decreased $124,000, due to the rate paid on them declining 29 basis points. The Company recognizes that brokered funds are a more volatile funding source than core deposits. However, given the current interest rate environment and the steepness of the interest rate curve, the Company elected to collect these funds and earn a spread on them in order to enhance net interest income. Given the increased volatility in brokered deposits, the Company invested a large portion of these amounts in mortgage backed securities, which provide a regular stream of monthly cash flows, and can be used to meet the maturity needs of time and brokered deposits. We have matched cash flows from the debt securities portfolio with nontraditional cash flows to enable us to unwind the strategy if loan demand continues to increase or if the yield curve flattens. As a result of the recent regulatory climate around nontraditional funding sources, management anticipates it will not utilize brokered deposits as heavily in the future.
Interest income earned on loans increased from $36.7 million for the first nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $38.1 million in 2011, a 3.7% increase. For the first three quarters of 2011, average loans increased $97.8 million, or 10.9%, to $997.5 million from $899.7 million in the first nine months of 2010. The increase in average loans is the result of the Companys desire to continue to grow its loan portfolio and deploy its capital. This growth has come principally in some of the Companys less mature markets, in which we have hired additional lending officers, which has increased opportunities in these markets served. The growth experienced in the loan portfolio in the second half of 2010, supplemented with the loan demand in the first quarter of 2011, provided the strong growth in average loan balances. Due to the variable nature of a large portion of the loan portfolio, along with the implementation of floors as loans renewed, the Company was able to limit the decline in the average rate earned on loans. Management does not expect it will continue to experience the same level of growth in loans that is has in the past several years, given competitive conditions and the regulatory climate. The increase in the Companys nonaccrual loan balance will put pressure on the rate earned on loans in future quarters.
As a result of the increase in its deposit base, the Company has placed less reliance on more costly long-term borrowings. Interest expense on long-term debt has decreased $384,000 from $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $838,000 in the corresponding period in 2011. Reduction in average daily balance of $8.3 million for 2011 compared to 2010, and the lower rate paid of 2.43% in 2011 compared to 3.0% in 2010 contributed to the reduced interest expense.
- 36 -
The Companys net interest spread has declined by 1 basis point, and the net interest margin has declined by 3 basis point each for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to 2010. Given the continued low interest rate, reduced rates earned on interest earning assets outpaced the reduction in rates that we could pass on to our customers, and resulted in the lower interest rate spread and margin. The net interest spread was 3.57% and net interest margin was 3.69% for the first nine months of 2011.

Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 totaled $32.3 million, a significant increase over the prior years amount of $7.6 million for the same period. The factors attributable to the increase in the provision for loan losses, included the following:
| An additional charge-off of $5.6 million above that which was initially reserved on a previously reported commercial credit in which the borrower is currently in bankruptcy. As a result of the Banks recent termination of its involvement with the borrowers Plan of Reorganization exit financing, it was determined prudent to charge-off the entire loan balance, as the Bank is presently listed as an unsecured non-priority claimant in the pre-petition indebtedness. |
| Prolonged softening real estate conditions, particularly in the Banks southern market, have resulted in additional loan loss provisions, as the allowance for loan losses was increased by $9.2 million after charge-offs that related to borrowings that were collateral dependent. Upon receiving updated appraisals in 2011, it was noted that the appraised values were significantly less than previous appraisals, or even listed sales prices. Real estate values are depressed due to lack of growth in the market and abundance of properties available. |
- 37 -
| The Banks recognition of continuing softness in overall economic conditions and deterioration of underlying collateral securing lending relationships resulted in an ongoing credit review process during the second and third quarters that covered nearly 100% of the commercial loan portfolio as measured in dollars. This process led to downgraded internal risk ratings on many existing credits, and subsequently raised required reserve levels. Loans classified as substandard or doubtful have increased to $146.3 million as of September 30, 2011, compared to $67.8 at December 31, 2010. Classified loans have declined 2.5% from June 30, 2011, principally the result of charge-offs, or partial charge-off of loans. |
| The continued economic pressures on customers and valuations on underlying collateral resulted in management increasing its qualitative reserve allocations on its loan portfolios to reflect these conditions. In addition, the $22.7 million in net charge-offs experienced in 2011 resulted in increased quantitative reserve allocations to specific loan portfolios. |
Other Income
Noninterest income, excluding securities gains, totaled $16.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $14.6 million for the same period in 2010. Noninterest income generation increased across most business lines including Orrstown Financial Advisors, mortgage originations, and retail deposits. These business lines have been able to capitalize on favorable market conditions, which include:
| Service charges on deposit accounts increased 1.8%, from $4.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $4.8 million in 2011. The increase was principally the result of increased revenues earned on debit cards. Partially offsetting the increase was a decline in overdraft charges to depositors during the period, as we have experienced customers being more cautious in their spending given the economic times and less likely to overdraw their accounts. |
| Other service charges, commissions and fees declined $676,000 during the period, from $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $1.0 million for the corresponding period in 2011. The decrease is primarily the result of loan service fees, in which we have seen reduced frequency of customers willing to pay prepayment penalties and fewer needing letter of credit facilities. |
| Trust department and brokerage income increased $622,000, or 16.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to 2010. The increase was a result of increases in trust and brokerage transaction activity as the stock market has started to show signs of recovery and an increased number of accounts with assets under management. Further, during the first several months of 2011, the stock market was higher than in 2010, which resulted in higher assets under management. Recently, the market has come down some which may impact future revenues. |
| During the first nine months of 2011, the continued low interest rate environment and additional mortgage originators have led to an increase in new mortgage loan applications as well as refinancing activities compared to the same period in 2010. Given this low interest rate environment, the Company generally sells its 30-year conforming loans to investors, and during the year sold its shorter term conforming mortgages on the secondary market as well. As a result, income on mortgage banking increased $528,000 to $2.3 million for nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $1.7 million in 2010. The Company has recently seen a decrease in refinancing activity, as mortgage rates have been low for a sustained period of time, and values of homes have been impacted by real estate conditions, which have limited customers abilities to refinance. |
| Earnings on life insurance decreased $48,000 from $884,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $836,000 for the same period in 2011. The decline in earnings was the combination of $239,000 recognized in life insurance benefits upon the death of a former director in 2010, partially offset by higher average balances of bank owned life insurance during 2011 than in 2010, which enhanced earnings on the investments. |
| Noninterest income was enhanced in both periods, from gains on sale of interest rate swaps, totaling $778,000 recognized in 2010, which is consistent with the $791,000 earned in 2011. |
Securities gains totaled $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $3.3 million in 2010. The Companys decision to sell securities in the two periods and realize gains is the result of interest rate and market conditions, and the Companys asset liability management strategies.

Other Expenses
As a result of the growth the Company has experienced, noninterest expenses rose from $26.7 million during the first nine months of 2010 to $30.0 for the same period in 2011, an increase of $3.3 million, or 12.3%. The following contributed to the net increase in other expenses.
| Salaries and employee benefits decreased slightly to $13.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, from $14.1 million for the corresponding period in 2010. The decrease was attributable to the reduction in employee benefit accruals based on the Companys performance, including discretionary executive bonuses and profit sharing accruals. Offsetting the reduction in these accruals was a growth in the number of full-time equivalents from 277 at September 30, 2010 to 313 at September 30, 2011. |
| FDIC insurance expense increased $863,000, or 75.8%, to $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from $1.1 million for the same period in 2010. The increase is due to higher deposit balances and increased assessment rates in 2011 compared to 2010. |
| Professional services totaled $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $1.4 million over 2010s total of $569,000. The increase in expenses can be attributed to increased professional services provided, including third party loan review assistance, legal costs associated with increased complexity of the Company and regulatory issues, and increased accounting/auditing fees due to additional requirements of financial and regulatory reporting. |
| Taxes, other than income, increased from $587,000 during the first nine months of 2010 to $636,000 in 2011, a $49,000 increase. Pennsylvanias Bank Shares Tax Expense is based on the last six years rolling average equity, as defined. The increase in expense was a direct result of the growth that the bank has experienced in its average shareholders equity, principally the result of the $18 million capital infusion from the Company during 2010 and the roll-off of 2004s balance. |
| Collection and real estate owned expenses, included in other operating expenses, increased approximately $566,000, from $437,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $1.0 million in 2011. These expenses have increased as a result of a heightened number of classified assets, as corrective action and work-out plans are detailed with the borrowers in order to mitigate the Companys risk of loss. It is anticipated these charges will continue to increase as the Company works through its classified loans. |
| The Company established a $250,000 reserve for off-balance sheet commitments during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, which is included in other expenses. As noted in the provision for loan losses section, the continuing softness in overall economic conditions and deterioration of underlying collateral resulted in the need for a reserve for unfunded commitments, particularly construction and development loans which will need completed. |
| The Company has held a real estate property for several years for possible branch or operations expansion. During 2011, the Company obtained an updated appraisal for this property, and deemed it appropriate to record a $156,000 charge to mark the property to its fair value. This charge is included in other expenses. |
| The remainder of the increase in other expenses is primarily the result of the growth experiences by the Company. |
The Companys efficiency ratio was 52.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, an improvement on 2010s ratio of 53.6% for the same period.
Income Tax Expense
The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to income tax expense of $4.9 million in the same period in 2010. A meaningful comparison of income tax expense to levels of pre-tax income is its effective tax rate, which is less than the 35% federal statutory rate, primarily due to tax-exempt loan and security income, life insurance earnings and tax credits associated with low-income housing and historic projects, offset by certain non-deductible expenses and state income taxes.
The Companys effective tax rate declined to (50.9%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to 28.5% for the corresponding prior year period. For interim financial reporting, the Company computes its income tax expense (benefit) based on its estimated effective tax rate for the year, as noted in ASC 740-270-25. Further,
- 39 -
interim reporting of income taxes limits the amount of benefit that can be taken to not exceed the projected tax benefit for the year. The lower effective tax rate in 2011 is the direct result of greater levels of tax-free income as a percentage of estimated taxable income for the year. The large provision for loan losses recorded in 2011 results in lower estimated taxable income for the year, and an anticipated benefit.
As a result of utilizing the estimated annual effective tax rate in calculating the income tax benefit, it is anticipated that tax expense for the last quarter of 2011 will remain lower than the historical 2010 levels and should result in minimal expense. By year end, the full income tax benefit of the higher than normal provision for loan losses will be recognized.
Financial Condition
A substantial amount of time is devoted by management to overseeing the investment of funds in loans and securities and the formulation of policies directed toward the profitability and minimization of risk associated with such investments.
Securities Available for Sale
The Company utilizes securities available for sale as a tool for managing interest rate risk, enhancing income through interest and dividend income, to provide liquidity and to provide collateral for certain deposits and borrowings. As of September 30, 2011, securities available for sale were $354.0 million, a decrease of $77.8 million, or 18.0% from the December 31, 2010 balance of $431.8 million.
The decline in securities available for sale occurred in every investment category, including U.S. Government Sponsored Enterprises securities with fixed maturity dates, which declined by $52.2 million, mortgage-backed securities which declined by $18.9 million, and state and political subdivisions, which fell by $6.2 million. The cash flows received from principal pay downs, maturities, and sales of securities from these portfolios were kept liquid, and the Company has seen an increase in its federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits with banks of $55.7 million. Given the current interest rate environment and funding needs of maturing borrowings and deposits, management has kept the funds liquid in order to meet these obligations.
The available for sale securities portfolio of $354.0 million at September 30, 2011 has decreased since June 30, 2011s balance of $421.1 million, with declines noted in all investment categories. Again, the funds were kept liquid, with federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits increasing by $59.6 million.
Loan Portfolio
The Company offers various products to meet the credit needs of our borrowers, and principally consists of commercial real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, and retail loans consisting of loans securitized by residential properties, and to a lesser extent, installment loans. Generally speaking, the Company follows conservative lending practices and continues to carry a high quality loan portfolio with no unusual or undue concentrations of credit. No loans are extended to non domestic borrowers or governments.
The Companys loan portfolio is broken down into segments to an appropriate level of disaggregation to allow management to monitor the performance by the borrower and to monitor the yield on the portfolio. In 2010, management incorporated the provisions of ASU 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Loan Losses, resulting in the refinement in its portfolio segregation. Consistent with this standard, the segments were further broken down into classes, to allow for differing risk characteristics within a segment.
The risks associated with lending activities differ among the various loan classes, and are subject to the impact of changes in interest rates, market conditions of collateral securing the loans, and general economic conditions. All of these factors may adversely impact the borrowers ability to repay its loans, and impact the associated collateral.
The Company makes various types of commercial real estate loans which have differing levels of credit risk associated with them. Owner-occupied commercial real estate loans are generally dependent upon the successful operation of the borrowers business, with the cash flows generated from the business being the primary source of repayment of the loan. If the business suffers a downturn in sales or profitability, the borrowers ability to repay the loan could be in jeopardy. In order to minimize this credit risk, the Company has conservative underwriting standards which include the credit worthiness of the borrower, a limitation on loan amounts to 75% of the value of the property securing the loan, and strong debt service coverage ratios.
- 40 -
Non-owner occupied and multi-family commercial real estate loans present a different credit risk to the Company than owner-occupied commercial real estate, as the repayment of the loan is dependent upon the borrowers ability to generate a sufficient level of occupancy to produce rental income that exceeds debt service requirement and operating expenses. Lower occupancy or lease rates may result in reduction in cash flows, which hinder the ability of the borrower to meet debt service requirements, and may result in lower collateral values. The Company generally follows the same underwriting standards for these loans as with owner-occupied commercial real estate, but recognizes the greater risk inherent in these credit relationships in its loan pricing.
Acquisition and development loans consists of 1-4 family residential construction and commercial and land development loans. The risk of loss on these loans is largely dependent on the Companys ability to assess the propertys value at the completion of the project, which should exceed the propertys construction costs. During the construction phase, a number of factors could potentially negatively impact the collateral value, including cost overruns, delays in completing the project, competition, and real estate market conditions which may change based on the supply of similar properties in the area. In the event the collateral value at the completion of the project is not sufficient to cover the outstanding loan balance, the Company must rely upon other repayment sources, including the guarantors of the project or other collateral securing the loan. The Company attempts to mitigate credit risk through strict underwriting standards including evaluation of the credit worthiness of the borrower and their success in other projects, aggressive release fees, loan-to-value ratios not to exceed 75%, and continual monitoring of the project during its construction phase to determine the impact that overruns and delays may have on the project.
Commercial and industrial loans include advances to local and regional businesses for general commercial purposes and include permanent and short-term working capital, machinery and equipment financing, and may be either in the form of lines of credit or term loans. Although commercial and industrial loans may be unsecured to our highest rated borrowers, the majority of these loans are secured by the borrowers accounts receivable, inventory and machinery and equipment. In a majority of these loans, the collateral also includes the business real estate or the business owners personal real estate or assets. Commercial and industrial loans present credit exposure to the Company, as they are more susceptible to risk of loss during a downturn in the economy, as borrowers may have greater difficulty in meeting their debt service requirements and the value of the collateral may decline. The Company attempts to mitigate this risk through strict underwriting standards, including evaluating the credit worthiness of the borrower and to the extent available, credit ratings on the business. Additionally, monitoring of the loans through annual renewals and meetings with the borrowers are common. However, these procedures cannot eliminate the risk of loss associated with commercial and industrial lending.
The Company originates loans to its retail customers, including fixed-rate and adjustable first lien mortgage loans with the underlying 1-4 family owner-occupied residential property securing the credit. The Companys risk exposure is minimized in these types of loans through the evaluation of the credit worthiness of the borrower, including credit scores and debt-to-income ratios, and underwriting standards which limits the loan-to-value ratio to generally no more than 80%, unless the borrower obtains private mortgage insurance.
Home equity loans, including term loans and lines of credit, present a slightly higher risk to the Company than 1-4 family first liens, as these loans can be first or second liens on 1-4 family owner occupied residential property, but can have loan-to-value ratios of no greater than 90% of the value of the real estate taken as collateral. The credit worthiness of the borrower is considered including credit scores and debt-to-income ratios, which generally cannot exceed 38%.
Installment and other loans credit risk are mitigated through conservative underwriting standards, including the evaluation of the credit worthiness of the borrower, including credit scores and debt-to-income ratios, and if secured, the collateral value of the assets. As these loans can be unsecured or secured by assets the value of which may depreciate quickly or may fluctuate, they present a greater risk to the Company than 1-4 family residential loans.

The loan portfolio at September 30, 2011 has grown 2.6%, from $964.3 million at December 31, 2010 to $989.0 million at September 30, 2011. Owner occupied commercial real estate has experienced the most growth, increasing from $172.0 million at December 31, 2010 to $199.0 million at September 30, 2011, a 15.7% increase. Commercial and industrial loans also grew, increasing from $263.9 million at December 31, 2010 to $280.3 million at September 30, 2011, a 6.2% increase. Several experienced lenders have joined the Company in the past two years, which has led to additional opportunities in some of the Companys emerging markets.
Non-owner occupied commercial real estate decreased from $143.3 million to $138.9 million at September 30, 2011. This decrease was principally the result of two loans secured by motels that were paid off during 2011. A decrease was also noted in 1-4 family residential construction loans which decreased $17.0 million from December 31, 2010 to September 30, 2011. A large portion of this movement in 1-4 family construction was the result of normal conversion of loans from construction to permanent financing, the largest of which was an approximate $9.0 million townhouse development in which the construction phase ended and the loan moved to permanent financing, and is now included in the commercial category.
The Company has experienced a $13.6 million decrease in its first lien residential mortgages from December 31, 2010 to September 30, 2011s balance of $105.9 million. As a result of asset/liability and capital management, the Company sold its shorter-lived 1-4 residential mortgages, generally with maturities of 10-20 years, which were previously held in its portfolio. Longer termed residential mortgage loans continue to be sold on the secondary market, as they present greater interest rate risk.
Asset Quality
Risk Elements
The Companys loan portfolios are subject to varying degrees of credit risk. Credit risk is mitigated through conservative underwriting standards, on-going credit review, and monitoring asset quality measures. Additionally, loan portfolio diversification, limiting exposure to a single industry or borrower, and requiring collateral also mitigate the Companys risk of credit loss.
The Companys loan portfolio principally consists of loans to borrowers in south central Pennsylvania and Washington County, Maryland. As the majority of loans are concentrated in this geographic region, a substantial portion of the debtors ability to honor their obligations may be affected by the level of economic activity in the market area.
Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual and restructured loans and foreclosed real estate. In addition, loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing are also deemed to be a risk asset. For all loan classes, the accrual of interest income on loans, including impaired loans, ceases when principal or interest is past due 90 days or more and collateral is inadequate to cover principal and interest or immediately if, in the opinion of management, full collection is unlikely. Interest will continue to accrue on loans past due 90 days or more if the collateral is adequate to cover principal and interest, and the loan is in the process of collection. Interest accrued, but not collected, as of the date of placement on nonaccrual status, is generally reversed and charged against interest income, unless fully collateralized. Subsequent payments received are either applied to the outstanding principal balance or recorded as interest income, depending on managements assessment of the ultimate collectability of principal. Loans are returned to accrual status, for all loan classes, when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current, have performed in accordance with the contractual terms of the note for a reasonable period of time, generally nine months, and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is reasonably assured. Past due status is based on contract terms of the loan for all loan classes.
- 42 -
Loans, the terms of which are modified, are classified as troubled debt restructurings if a concession was granted, for legal or economic reasons, related to a debtors financial difficulties. Concessions granted under a troubled debt restructuring typically involve a temporary deferral of scheduled loan payments, an extension of a loans stated maturity date, temporary reduction in interest rates, or below market rates. If a modification occurs while the loan is on accruing status, it will continue to accrue interest under the modified terms. Nonaccrual troubled debt restructurings are restored to accrual status if scheduled principal and interest payments, under the modified terms, are current for nine months after modification, and the borrower continues to demonstrate its ability to meet the modified terms. Troubled debt restructurings are evaluated individually for impairment if they have been restructured during the most recent calendar year, or if they are not performing according to their modified terms.
The following table presents the Companys risk elements, including information concerning the aggregate balances of nonaccrual, restructured, loans past due 90 days or more, and foreclosed real estate as of September 30, 2011, June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. Relevant asset quality ratios are also presented.

The Company continues to monitor its classified loans in light of the continued softness in economic conditions and collateral values. As a result of this monitoring, additional nonperforming assets and other risk elements were identified during 2011. Total risk elements, which include nonaccrual loans, other real estate owned, restructured loans and still accruing and loans past due 90 days or more still accruing, increased to $74.0 million at September 30, 2011 from $54.5 million and $18.4 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
The largest increase in risk elements was restructured loans still accruing, which totaled $37.1 million at September 30, 2011, compared $34.8 million at June 30, 2011 and $1.2 million at December 31, 2010. In the second quarter of 2011, the Company early adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2011-02, A Creditors Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring (ASU No. 2011-02). As a result of adopting the amendments in ASU No. 2011-02, the Company reassessed terms and conditions to customers on restructured loans that had been completed in the past several months. The Company designated certain relationships in which management worked with the borrower and modified terms and conditions, principally extension of loan maturities, as restructured loans. Despite the Companys ability to increase the rate on many of these loans to a floor rate of interest and strengthening of loan quality with additional collateral in certain instances, the loans were designated as restructured as the borrowers were experiencing financial difficulties, and the new rates were below a market rate of interest for similar risk characteristics. The Company proactively took actions with these borrowers to enable them to repay their loans under revised terms and conditions, which were felt to mitigate loss potential to the bank while allowing the borrowers to work through these softened economic times. All restructured loans were performing in accordance with their revised terms at September 30, 2011. As a result of the adoption of ASU No. 2011-02, the 2011 earnings have been negatively impacted by $3.4 million, representing the impairment valuation reserve at September 30, 2011 calculated under Section 310-10-35. Previous to the adoption of ASU No. 2011-02, a reserve was established on these loans under a general allowance methodology.

In 2010, the Company restructured two residential mortgages in order to assist the borrowers who were experiencing financial difficulties. The restructured loans resulted in concessions that the Bank made in interest rates for a short (less than twelve months) period of the remaining amortization schedule, and resulted in a reduction of the discounted cash flows of the loans, based on the original loans interest rate, of approximately $20,000.
Nonaccrual loans increased from $13.9 million at December 31, 2010 to $31.2 million at September 30, 2011, an increase of 124.3%, or $17.3 million. The net increase in nonaccrual loans is primarily the result of $869,000 of pay downs, $22.2 million of loans being charged-off, $2.2 million of loans foreclosed on and transferred to other real estate owned, and loans totaling $42.5 million being moved to nonaccrual status during the nine-month period. Since June 30, 2011, nonaccrual loans increased by $16.4 million, a result of $27.5 million of loans moved to non-accrual status, offset by $9.2 million in loans charged-off and $1.8 million foreclosed on and transferred to real estate owned.
During 2011, the Company increased the number of personnel in its loan workout and credit review departments and outsourced certain credit review responsibilities in order to mitigate the Companys risk of loss, and to eventually reduce its level of nonaccrual and classified loans. During the quarter ended September 30, 2011, new appraisals were received on many criticized assets and updated financial statements were received on these borrowers. Based upon an evaluation of the credit condition of the borrowers as well as continued softness noted in real estate market conditions, reclassifying certain loans to nonaccrual status was determined to be an appropriate course of action.
Since June 30, 2011, three significant relationships with loan balances totaling $23.3 million have moved from accruing to nonaccruing status. The first relationship, consisting of several notes and related entities, is to commercial real estate operators with multi-use properties in their portfolio, including a restaurant, entertainment facilities, condominiums and office space located in the Companys southern market. Loans totaling approximately $15.8 million were placed in nonaccrual status, and upon receiving updated appraisals, the collateral dependent loans were written down to their fair value of $9.8 million, with the remaining $6.0 million difference charged to the allowance for loan losses.
A second relationship moved to nonaccrual status in the quarter ended September 30, 2011, with loans totaling $4.6 million, is to wholesaler that supplies inventory to the commercial construction industry. As a result of the deterioration in real estate conditions,, the borrowers business has been negatively impacted, and has resulted in management concluding that they will be unable to continue to service their debt requirements. The Company is in the process of obtaining updated appraisals, as many of the appraisals on the properties securing the outstanding balances are greater than one year old. A reserve of $1.3 million has been established on the relationship, based on discounting the existing appraisals in the file by approximately 22%. Upon receiving updated appraisals, management expects that much of the reserve will be charged off to reflect the collateral dependent loans fair value.
A third relationship, totaling $1.6 million, moved to nonaccrual status in the quarter ended September 30, 2011, is to borrowers that purchased real estate, with plans to convert it to a residential development. A delay in the approval process for the planned development, coupled with deterioration in real estate conditions, has resulted in the project not materializing with little or no cash flows generated to meet debt service requirements. As a result, the Company placed the related loans on nonaccrual status; however, a reserve has not been established at this time as the collaterals value, discounted at 22.5%, appears sufficient to mitigate the Companys risk of loss.
Several large relationships remain in nonaccrual status at September 30, 2011. The first relationship, with loans totaling $5.2 million was originally moved to nonaccrual status in the second quarter of 2011. The loans are to a land developer in the Companys southern market. As a result of the downturn in the economy, the borrower has had difficulties in finding ground lease tenants and has had difficulties meeting the conditions in selling pad sites on a different project. As a result of the cash flow problems the borrower is experiencing and related delinquencies, the three loans have been placed in nonaccrual status. The loans are secured by the real estate projects and guarantors that have little liquidity. Updated appraisals were received in the third quarter of 2011, and resulted in charge-offs on each of the three loans, totaling $1.9 million was charged to the allowance for loan losses, in order to properly reflect the collateral dependent loans at their fair value. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had an ASC 310 reserve on this relationship totaling $1.0 million.
Another relationship that remains on nonaccrual status totals $3.3 million and was moved to nonaccrual status during the second quarter of 2011. These loans relate to a real estate investor in our southern market. Increased vacancy on the borrowers projects has led to reduced cash flows, and the inability to meet monthly debt service requirements on the related loan obligations. The loans are secured by the real estate, and the borrower has little
- 44 -
liquidity to meet debt service requirements until occupancy levels improve. No charge-offs have been taken on the relationship to date, as the recently obtain appraised values suggest the loan is sufficiently secured. However, an impairment reserve remains on the books, allowing for costs to dispose and some room if real estate values should continue to decline.
A loan secured by a residential subdivision in the Companys southern market remains in nonaccrual status at September 30, 2011. As a result of the downturn in the economy and lack of growth in this market, the development of the project was delayed, and the property is currently on the market for sale. The relationship was current based on an interest reserve that was funding monthly interest payments, however, in light of a recent appraisal, it was determined that the collateral securing this collateral dependent loan was not sufficient to cover the loan balance, and the loan was moved to nonaccrual status. A second loan to the borrower with a second lien position on the collateral, totaling $2.6 million, was previously written off during the second quarter ended once an updated appraisal was received and it was concluded that the real estate had no value to support the second lien position. These loans were not considered impaired prior to the second quarter of 2011, as they were current and the property was listed for sale with a realtor in excess of the loan balances. Another appraisal was obtained on the property in the third quarter of 2011, and resulted in an additional $806,000 of the loans being charged-off, resulting in a September 30, 2011 carrying balance of $630,000. The Company had a $719,000 ASC 310 reserve established on this loan at June 30, 2011.
Another loan remaining in nonaccrual status as of September 30, 2011 is a one by a mixed use building, consisting of residential apartments and commercial retail space that has had difficulties in securing leases from tenants that will enable it to meet its debt service requirements. The Bank is working with the borrower through the lease up period, in order to allow sufficient time to increase the buildings occupancy. This loan is secured by the commercial real estate property and has a loan carrying balance at September 30, 2011 of $551,000. During the second quarter of 2011, the Company charged off approximately $550,000 of the loan balance, which was previously reserved.
A residual balance of a nonaccrual loan of $258,000 remains, after the Company had foreclosed on several properties also securing the credit, resulting in $617,000 of the loan curtailed upon the title transfer of the foreclosed real estate to the Company. No loss was incurred in connection with the foreclosure process, and as of September 30, 2011, the Company continues to feel it is adequately secured as the remaining balance is secured by property with a value in excess of $815,000. The Company continues with its legal actions against the borrower.
None of the remaining nonaccruing loans has a balance in excess of $650,000, and of the remaining balance, approximately $1.4 million, or 4.4% of total nonaccruals, relates to the consumer or residential mortgage loan portfolio. The Company believes through the combination of the collateral securing the loans, partial charge-offs on nonaccrual loans of $7.8 million, and the impairment reserves allocated for these relationships totaling $4.1 million, it has provided for the potential losses that it may incur on these relationships as of September 30, 2011. However, as additional time passes on these relationships, additional information may become known that could result in additional reserve allocations, or, alternatively, it may be deemed that the reserve allocations exceed that which is needed.
The real estate owned balance consists of 15 properties held by the Company at September 30, 2011 acquired through foreclosure proceedings. One property totaling $564,000, and representing 21% of the balance, represents a unique residential property in Franklin County. Another property consists of a commercial use property located in Perry County, and two adjoining lots that total 70 acres, and has a combined carrying value of $672,000, or 24% of the total real estate owned balance. The remaining 11 properties, each with a carrying value of less than $350,000 are not significant. The Company is carrying each of the properties at their appraised values, less estimated cost to sell. Appraisals on all but one property, with a carrying value of $82,000 have been received within the past 15 months. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, eight properties were written down by a total of $160,000, upon the receipt of updated appraisals in the third quarter of 2011.

Past due loans increased from $7.6 million at December 31, 2010 to $24.3 million at September 30, 2011, an increase of $16.7 million. The majority of the increase was in the less severe category, of 30-59 days past due, which increased $14.9 million. The increase experienced was across different loan segments and borrowers within those classes. The Company has experienced migration in its delinquency categories, as loans 60-89 days past due have increased $1.1 million and loans greater than 90 days still accruing have increased $708,000. The rise in delinquencies can be attributed to continued economic conditions and customer fatigue, in which certain customers have had difficulties in maintaining current status in light of cash flow difficulties.
Credit Risk Management
Allowance for Loan Losses
During 2011, the Companys charge-offs have increased significantly, reflective of sluggish economic and real estate conditions. The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.
The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon managements periodic review of the collectability of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrowers ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.
- 46 -
The Company maintains the allowance for loan losses at a level believed adequate by management to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio. It is established and maintained through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Quarterly, management assesses the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses utilizing a defined methodology, which considers specific credit evaluations of impaired loans as discussed above, past loan loss historical experience, and qualitative factors. Management believes the approach properly addresses the requirements of ASC Section 310-10-35 for loans individually identified as impaired, and ASC Subtopic 450-20 for loans collectively evaluated for impairment, and other bank regulatory guidance.
In order to monitor ongoing risk associated with its loan portfolio and specific credits within the segments, management uses an eight point internal grading system. The first four rating categories, representing the lowest risk to the Bank, are combined and given a Pass rating. The Special Mention category includes loans that have potential weaknesses that may, if not monitored or corrected, weaken the asset or inadequately protect the Banks position at some future date. These assets pose elevated risk, but their weakness does not yet justify a more severe, or criticized rating. Management generally follows regulatory definitions in assigning criticized ratings to loans, including substandard, doubtful or loss. Substandard loans are classified as they have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses that jeopardize liquidation of the debt. These loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Substandard loans include loans that management has determined not to be impaired, as well as loans considered to be impaired. A doubtful loan has a high probability of total or substantial loss, but because of specific pending events that may strengthen the asset; its classification of loss is deferred. Loss assets are considered uncollectible, as the underlying borrowers are often in bankruptcy, have suspended debt repayments, or ceased business operations. Once a loan is classified as Loss, there is little prospect of collecting the loans principal or interest and it is generally written off.
The Bank has a loan review policy and program which is designed to reduce and control risk in the lending function. The Credit Administration Committee, comprised of members of the Board, is charged with the overall credit quality and risk exposure of the Companys loan portfolio. This includes the monitoring of the lending activities of all bank personnel with respect to underwriting and processing new loans and the timely follow-up and corrective action for loans showing signs of deterioration in quality. The loan review program provides the Bank with an internal, independent review of the Banks loan portfolio on an ongoing basis. Generally, consumer and residential mortgage loans are included in the Pass categories unless a specific action, such as extended delinquencies, bankruptcy, repossession or death of the borrower occurs, which heightens awareness as to a possible credit event.
Loan reviews are completed annually on all commercial relationships with a committed loan balance in excess of $750,000, with ratification of the rating from the Board of Directors Credit Administration Committee for loans between $750,000 - $1,000,000. Loans reviewed in excess of $1,000,000 are presented to the Credit Administration Committee with a formal review and rating. All relationships rated Substandard, Doubtful or Loss are reviewed by the Credit Administration Committee on a quarterly basis, including reaffirmation of the rating, review of detailed collateral analysis and the development of an action plan. In addition to the policy guidelines noted above, the Company extended its review coverage during the second and third quarters of 2011 in light of softness in overall economic conditions and deterioration of underlying collateral securing the lending relationships. As a result, all commercial real estate, construction and development, and commercial loans in excess of $500,000, representing over 75% coverage of these portfolios, have been reviewed and assigned a loan rating.

Classified loans may also be evaluated for impairment. For commercial real estate, acquisition and development and commercial and industrial loans, a loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Generally, loans that are more than 90 days past due are assigned a Substandard rating. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrowers prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Nonaccrual loans in the commercial and commercial real estate portfolios are, by definition, deemed to be impaired. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial, construction and restructured loans by either the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loans effective interest rate, the loans obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A loan is collateral dependent if the repayment of the loan is expected to be provided solely by the underlying collateral. For loans that are deemed to be impaired for extended periods of time, periodic updates on fair values are obtained, which may include updated appraisals. The updated fair values will be incorporated into the impairment analysis as of the next reporting period. In the event an updated appraisal that requires a higher impairment reserve is received after a reporting period, but prior to the issuance of the financial statements, an evaluation is made as to the significance of the difference and whether the amounts need to be reflected in the financial statements not yet issued.
Loan charge-offs, which may include, from time-to-time, a partial charge-off, are taken on an impaired loan that is collateral dependent if the loans carrying balance exceeds its collaterals appraised value, the loan has been identified as uncollectible, and it is deemed to be a confirmed loss. Typically, impaired loans with a charge-off or partial charge-off will continue to be considered impaired, unless the note is split into two, and management expects
- 48 -
the performing note to continue to perform and is adequately secured. The second, or non-performing note, would be charged-off. As of the periods presented, the Company has no loans to borrowers that resulted from splitting impaired loans into multiple notes. Further, an impaired loan with a partial charge-off may continue to have an impairment reserve on it after the partial charge-off, if factors warrant.
As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 nearly all of the Companys impaired loans extent of impairment was measured based on the estimated fair value of the collateral securing the credit, except for troubled debt restructurings. By definition, troubled debt restructurings are considered impaired, however, nearly all restructured loans impairment was determined based on discounted cash flows. For real estate loans, collateral generally consists of commercial real estate, but in the case of commercial and industrial loans, it would also consist of accounts receivable, inventory, equipment or other business assets. Commercial and industrial loans may also have real estate collateral.
For collateral dependent impaired loans, at the time a real estate-secured loan is deemed impaired, management determines whether an updated certified appraisal of the real estate is necessary to assist in determining the extent of an impairment reserve, if any. The decision whether an updated appraisal is required takes into consideration the age of the most recent appraisal, the loan-to-value ratio based on the original certified appraisal, the Companys recent experience and knowledge of market conditions, recent list prices or broker opinions, the condition of the property, and environmental factors. If market conditions have changed significantly from the date of the most recent appraisal, an updated appraisal will be obtained. As of October 1, 2011, the Company amended its policy, which now requires annual updated appraisals for criticized loans in excess of $250,000 which will be used for future impairment analysis. The as is value provided in the appraisal is often used as the fair value of the collateral in determining impairment, unless circumstances, such as subsequent improvements, approvals, or other circumstances dictate that another value provided by the appraiser is more appropriate.
Generally impaired loans secured by real estate were measured at fair value using certified real estate appraisals that had been completed within the last year. Appraised values are further discounted for estimated costs to sell the property and other selling considerations to arrive at the properties fair value.
In those situations in which it is determined an updated appraisal is not required for loans individually evaluated for impairment, fair values are based on one or a combination of the following approaches. In those situations in which a combination of approaches is considered, the factor that carries the most consideration will be the one management believes is warranted. The approaches are as follows:
| Original appraisal if the original appraisal provides a strong loan-to-value (generally 80% or lower) and, after consideration of market conditions and knowledge of the property and area, it is determined by the loan review staff that there has not been a significant deterioration in the collateral value, the original certified appraised value will be used. Discounts as deemed appropriate for selling costs are factored into the appraised value in arriving at fair value. |
| Discounted cash flows In limited cases, discounted cash flows may be used on projects in which the collateral is liquidated to reduce the borrowings outstanding, and is used to validate collateral values derived from other approaches. |
Collateral on certain impaired loans is not limited to real estate, and may include accounts receivable, inventory, equipment or other business assets. Estimated fair values are determined based on borrowers financial statements, inventory ledgers, accounts receivable agings or appraisals from individuals with knowledge in the business. Stated balances are generally discounted for the age of the financial information or the quality of the assets. In determining fair value, liquidation discounts are applied to this collateral based on existing loan evaluation policies.
The Company distinguishes Substandard loans on both an impaired and non-impaired basis, as it places less emphasis on a loans classification, and increased reliance on whether the loan was performing in accordance with the contractual terms. Substandard classification does not automatically meet the definition of impaired. A substandard credit is one that is inadequately protected by current sound worth, paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged, if any. Extensions of credit so classified have well-defined weaknesses which may jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard credits, does not have to exist in individual extensions of credit classified substandard. As a result, the Company revised its methodology in its evaluation of certain accruing commercial real estate, acquisition and development and commercial and industrial loans rated substandard collectively for impairment as opposed to evaluating these loans individually for impairment. Although we believe these loans have well defined weaknesses and meet the definition of substandard, they are generally performing and management has concluded that it is likely it will be able to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.

Larger groups of smaller balance homogenous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Bank does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement due to financial difficulties of the borrower.

In the second quarter of 2011, the Company early adopted the provisions of ASU No. 2011-02, A Creditors Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring (ASU No. 2011-02). As a result of adopting the amendments in ASU No. 2011-02, the Company reassessed terms and conditions on restructured loans that had been completed in the past several months. In many instances, the Company was able to increase the interest rate on the loans and obtain additional collateral support for the borrowings, in exchange for extension of the loans terms. However, the new interest rate charged was considered to be at a below-market rate, which was determined to be a concession to its borrowers that were experiencing financial difficulties. Prior to their classification as troubled debt restructurings, these loans had been collectively evaluated for impairment consistent with the guidance in Subtopic 450-20. Upon identifying these receivables as troubled debt restructurings, the Company identified them as impaired under the guidance in Section 310-10-35. The amendments in ASU No. 2011-02 require prospective application of the impairment measurement guidance in Section 310-10-35 for those receivables newly identified as impaired. As a result of the adoption, the 2011 earnings have been negatively impacted by $3.4 million, representing the impairment valuation reserve at September 30, 2011 calculated under Section 310-10-35. Previous to the adoption of ASU No. 2011-12, a reserve was established on these loans under a general allowance methodology.

The loans presented above were considered troubled debt restructurings as the result of the Company agreeing to below market interest rates, allowing the loan to remain on interest only status, or for residential mortgage loans, a temporary reduction in interest rates for periods not exceeding 12 months in order to assist the borrowers to improve cash flows during such periods. No additional commitments have been made to borrowers whose loans are considered troubled debt restructurings.
Potential problem loans are defined as performing loans, which have characteristics that cause management to have serious doubts as to the ability of the borrower to perform under present loan repayment terms and which may result in the reporting of these loans as non-performing loans in the future. Generally, management feels that substandard loans that are currently performing and not considered impaired, result in some doubt as to the borrowers ability to continue to perform under the terms of the loan, and represent potential problem loans.
Management further monitors the performance and credit quality of the loan portfolio by analyzing the length of time a portfolio is past due, by aggregating loans based on its delinquencies. For each loan class presented in the delinquency table previously presented, general allowances are provided for loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment, which are based on quantitative factors, principally historical loss trends for the respective loan class, adjusted for qualitative factors. As of December 31, 2010, the historical loss factor was based on average charge-offs for the last 8 quarters (e.g. January 1, 2009 December 31, 2010), whereas prior to December 31, 2010, the historical loss factor was based on an equally weighted rolling 12 quarters. Effective December 31, 2010, for loans rated special mention and substandard not deemed impaired, a weighted average rolling 8 quarters average charge-off percentage on the related graded loan type, with a two-third weight to the most recent four quarters, and a one-third weight for the furthest four quarters was utilized. For non-rated loans evaluated collectively for impairment, the charge-off factor for the last 8 quarters is factored into the reserve allocation. The refinement to the methodology was made as management determined that the most recent eight quarters, and in particular, the most recent four quarters for rated loans, is a better reflection of the losses inherent in the loan portfolio at December 31, 2010. Additional reserve allocations of approximately $730,000 resulted due to the change to the most recent 8 quarter history, which management believes is a better reflection of losses inherent in the portfolio based on recent loss history. In making this determination, management considered current economic and real estate conditions, trends in historical charge-off percentages at the Company as well as peers, and feedback from regulators.
In addition to the quantitative analysis, additional reserves are allocated on loans collectively evaluated for impairment based on additional qualitative factors. The qualitative factors used by management to adjust the historical loss percentage to the anticipated loss allocation, which range from 0 10 basis points per factor, include:
National and local economic trends (five factors) Ratios and factors considered include trends in the consumer price index (CPI); unemployment rates; housing price index; housing starts compared to the prior year; and bankruptcy rates.
- 51 -
Credit quality trends (four factors) Ratios and factors considered include trends in delinquency ratios; 90 days plus and nonaccrual loans; average net loan losses to loans outstanding; and classified loans to total loans.
Underwriting policies (three factors) Factors considered including the number of exceptions to loan policy; supervisory loan to value exceptions; and the instances of repeat criticisms of ratings.
Experience, ability and depth of lending and loan review staff (four factors) Factors considered include the years experience of the lending and loan review staff; turnover of the staff; instances of loan grade migration; and the penetration of loans reviewed.
Other (two factors) Other factors considered include concentrations of credit from loan type or shifts in industry or geographic region.

The provision for loan losses increased to $7.9 million and $32.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, as compared to $1.1 million and $7.6 million for corresponding periods in 2010. The factors attributable to the increase in the provision for loan losses include a specifically identifiable charge-off on a previously-reported commercial credit in which the borrower is currently in bankruptcy, additional reserves of $9.2 needed on two relationships in the Southern market, in which updated appraisals were significantly less than previous appraisals, and the establishment of valuation reserves of $3.4 million, determined principally through discounted cash flows, on restructured loans. Additionally, the elevated provision for loan losses resulted from downgrades in internal risk ratings of loans and loans considered impaired, which were influenced by continuing softness in economic conditions and deterioration of underlying collateral securing the loans. The provision for loan loss for the first nine months of 2011 was nearly 1.43x net charge-offs for the period, which enabled the Company to bolster the allowance for loan losses to 2.60% of loans outstanding, an increase from 1.66% at December 31, 2010. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to loans outstanding of 2.60% declined from June 30, 2011s ratio of 2.72% due to $9.4 million of charge-offs that were recorded during the period.
See further discussion in the Provision for Loan Losses section noted in the Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011 compared to September 30, 2010.
Management believes the allocation of the allowance for loan losses between the various loan segments adequately reflects the inherent risk in each portfolio, and is based on the methodology previously discussed.
The largest dollar components of the reserve remains allocated to the commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loan portfolio. However, as a percent of related outstanding loan balance, the $5.4 million reserve allocation on the acquisition and development loan portfolio represents 5.0% of the related loans outstanding. In connection with managements heightened awareness of the economic conditions that plague our commercial and acquisition and development customers, numerous loans were re-evaluated with subsequent downgrades to the loans rating made. Substandard loans within this category, increased from $9.0 million at December 31, 2010 to $31.2 million at September 30, 2011, including a $7.8 million increase in loans meeting the impairment criteria. The $5.4 million reserve allocation reflects the deterioration in the real estate market conditions over the past several years, and borrowers inability to sell residential properties, or lease up commercial units as quickly as anticipated when the projects began. The slowdown in the market has resulted in reduced appraised values, resulting in higher charge-offs and reserve requirements on acquisition and development loans than was needed at December 31, 2010.
- 53 -
The commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loan portfolios also have higher inherent risk associated with them than retail loans, and the reserve allocations on these portfolios reflect this elevated risk. The allowance for loan losses allocated to the commercial real estate portfolio increased from $5.3 million at December 31, 2010 to $8.5 million at September 30, 2011. This increase in the reserve reflects higher level of charge-offs experienced than in prior years, and an increase in classified loans, including substandard and doubtful loans, from $29.3 million at December 31, 2010 to $50.0 million at September 30, 2011. The commercial and industrial loan portfolio has also seen an increase in classified loans which totaled $62.6 million at September 30, 2011 compared to $25.8 million at December 31, 2010. The commercial portfolio has experienced charge-offs of $11.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, including $8.6 million for a loan to a customer that financed interim constructing for mortgages, residential manufactured, modular and site-built homes.
The unallocated portion of the allowance for loan losses reflects estimated inherent losses within the portfolio that have not been detected. This reserve is the result of the error in the specific and general reserve allocation, other potential exposure in the loan portfolio, variances in managements assessment of national and local economic conditions and other factors management believes appropriate at the time. The unallocated portion represents 6.2% of the reserve balance at September 30, 2011. The increase from $165,000 at December 31, 2010 to $1.6 million at September 30, 2011 reflects greater uncertainty in how long the economic conditions will remain soft and collateral values will continue to depreciate.
While management believes the Companys allowance for loan losses is adequate based on information currently available, future adjustments to the reserve and enhancements to the methodology may be necessary due to changes in economic conditions, regulatory guidance, or managements assumptions as to future delinquencies or loss rates.
Deposits
On an average daily basis, total deposits grew 19.4%, or $201.7 million, from $1.040 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $1.242 billion for the corresponding 2011 period. Each category of time deposits experienced growth on an average daily basis in the first nine months of 2011 compared to 2010. The two categories that have experienced the most significant growth were interest bearing demand deposits, which grew $70.9 million, or 18.1%, and time deposits, which grew by $106.8 million, or 21.9% on an average daily balance basis. Given current economic times and market conditions, it has been noted that consumers are saving more. This fact, combined with our strong capital position, strong focus on our customer needs and service, and competitive pricing has allowed the Company to attract more demand deposits, including checking and money market products. In the past two months, the Company has experienced growth in its interest-bearing demand deposits, as state and municipal subdivisions that had previously elected to be in the Companys repurchase agreement product, migrated to an interest-bearing demand deposit, secured by investment securities. We anticipate this will continue throughout the fourth quarter of 2011.
The Companys strong IDC Financial Publishing, Inc. (IDC) rating, an independent bank safety rating which uses unique rankings of financial ratios to determine the quality ratings of financial institutions, allowed it to attract larger types of deposits, including time deposits, those in excess of $100,000, and brokered deposits. As noted above, the Banks IDC rating has led to an opportunity to obtain this relatively cheap funding source. The Company recognizes that brokered funds result in greater volatility as a funding source, but given the current interest rate environment and the steepness of the interest rate curve, elected to use these funds and earn a spread on them to increase net interest as previously discussed. Given the increased volatility in brokered deposits, the Company invested a large portion of these amounts in mortgage backed securities, which provide a steady stream of cash flows, which are used to meet the maturity needs of time deposits demand requirements of time and brokered deposits. This strategy was utilized, and towards the end of 2010 and the first half of 2011, the Company had built up its brokered deposit balances, and used the funds for loan growth, or mortgage backed securities. The average balance of brokered deposits increased from $97.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 to $179.9 million for the same period in 2011.
Management continually evaluates its utilization of brokered deposits, and considers the interest rate curve, and regulatory views on non-core funding sources. During the third quarter of 2011, the Company began to allow its brokered deposits to run off, without replacing them with additional brokered deposits, resulting in a decline in the balance since December 31, 2010. Brokered deposits of $144.1 million declined 16.0% from the December 31, 2010 balance of $171.6 million. Brokered and other time deposit balances will be less emphasized in the future given the uncertainty of the regulators views on this non-core funding source.

Capital Adequacy and Regulatory Matters
The management of capital in a regulated financial services industry must properly balance return on equity to its stockholders while maintaining sufficient levels of capital and related risk-based regulatory capital ratios to satisfy statutory regulatory requirements. The Companys capital management strategies have been developed to provide attractive rates of returns to its shareholders, while maintaining a well capitalized position of regulatory strength.
Total shareholders equity decreased $1.3 million from $160.4 million at December 31, 2010 to $159.1 million at September 30, 2011. The decrease in shareholders equity was principally the result of dividends declared of $5.5 million combined with the net loss for the period of $2.5 million, offset by gains on securities available for sale of $6.5 million. Historically, earnings retention, defined as net income less dividends declared, has served as a primary source of capital to the Company. As a result of the net loss posted during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, dividends declared have exceeded the years net income. Quarterly, management evaluates its ability to pay a dividend in light of regulatory guidance, capital needed for growth initiatives and minimum regulatory capital ratios. In October 2011, the Company announced it had discontinued its quarterly dividend, the result of regulatory guidance indicating that the dividend application would not be approved. It is anticipated that by not paying the dividend, the Company will retain approximately $7.4 million of capital annually. There can be no assurances as to whether, or in what amounts, cash dividends will be declared in the future or, if declared, whether they will continue, be suspended or discontinued.
The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Companys and Banks financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to financial holding companies.

Liquidity
The primary function of asset/liability management is to assure adequate liquidity and sensitivity to changing interest rates. Liquidity management involves the ability to meet the cash flow requirements of customers who may be either depositors wanting to withdraw funds or borrowers needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit needs. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, maturities and sales of investment securities and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.
We regularly adjust our investments in liquid assets based upon our assessment of (1) expected loan demand, (2) expected deposit flows, (3) yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities and (4) the objectives of our asset/liability management policy.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk |
Market risk is defined as the exposure to interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange rate risk, commodity price risk, and other relevant market rate or price risks. For domestic banks, including the Company, the majority of market risk is related to interest rate risk.
Interest rate sensitivity management requires the maintenance of an appropriate balance between interest sensitive assets and liabilities. Interest bearing assets and liabilities that are maturing or repricing should be adequately balanced to avoid fluctuating net interest margins and to enhance consistent growth of net interest income through periods of changing interest rates. The Company has consistently followed a strategy of pricing assets and liabilities according to prevailing market rates while largely matching maturities, within the guidelines of sound marketing and competitive practices. Rate sensitivity is measured by monthly gap analysis, quarterly rate shocks, and periodic simulation.
- 56 -
The Company has been able to significantly reduce its liability sensitivity, and increased its asset sensitivity during the past several months. In the first half of the year, the Company sold its $10 million notional amount interest rate swap, and in July 2011, the remaining interest rate swap, with a notional value of $20 million was sold as well. Both cash flow swaps converted variable rate earnings to fixed rate. The settlement of these swaps was done in an effort to increase our asset sensitivity in the event of rising rates. While the Company was liability sensitive at September 30, 2010, we have moved the position, as measured by cumulative gaps, to asset sensitive on the short-end, and are balanced at longer cumulative maturities, which we believe positions us for the possibility that interest rates may rise in the future. The following gap summary demonstrates the shift in risk sensitive assets to risk sensitive liabilities (RSA/RSL) (cumulative) position since year end:
0-3 Months | 0-6 Months | 0-12 Months | 0-36 Months | |||||||||||||
December 31, 2010 |
1.08 | 0.97 | 0.90 | 1.05 | ||||||||||||
March 31, 2011 |
1.19 | 1.02 | 0.95 | 1.08 | ||||||||||||
June 30, 2011 |
1.13 | 1.03 | 0.91 | 1.16 | ||||||||||||
September 30, 2011 |
1.48 | 1.29 | 1.09 | 1.33 |
The cumulative gap position at 12 months is positive at $51.8 million at September 30, 2011 and the RSA/RSL cumulative ratio is 1.09, versus a cumulative negative gap position at 12 months of $65.8 million or 0.90 RSA/RSL cumulative ratio reported at December 31, 2010. Overall, the Company maintains a balanced position that does not place it at undue risk under any interest rate scenario. Many of the deposit dollars in transaction accounts are discretionarily priced so management maintains significant pricing flexibility. The shift from a negative gap position at December 31, 2010 to a positive gap position at September 30, 2011 resulted from the sale of the interest rate swaps and the build up of interest bearing balances in the bank.
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures:
The Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of September 30, 2011. Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of September 30, 2011, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting them on a timely basis to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiary) required to be included in the Companys periodic filings under the Exchange Act.
(b) Changes in internal controls:
The Company regularly assesses the adequacy of its internal control over financial reporting and enhances its controls in response to internal control assessments and internal and external audit and regulatory recommendations. As noted in the previous quarter, effective July 1, 2011, the Company outsourced its loan review function to a third party loan review firm to complete independent loan reviews and validate managements loan ratings. This level of review was necessitated based upon managements conclusion that a current review of credits was required in light of the continuing softness in overall economic conditions and deterioration of underlying collateral based upon recent appraisals of the collateral securing the loans. All relationships reviewed by the outside loan review firm were reviewed with the Companys Credit Administration Committee, who reaffirmed the rating after a review of the loans cash flows, detailed collateral analysis and the development of action plans.
With the exception of the engagement by the Company of the independent loan review firm noted above, there have not been any other significant changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting or in other factors that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, such controls during the quarter ended September 30, 2011.
- 57 -
The nature of the Companys business generates a certain amount of litigation involving matters arising out of the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, there are no legal proceedings that might have a material effect on the results of operations, liquidity, or the financial position of the Company at this time.
There have been no material changes from the risk factors as disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, with the exception of the following additional risk factor.
We recently discontinued our quarterly cash dividend based on regulatory guidance that our dividend would not be approved and we do not anticipate declaring a cash dividend in the near future.
We are a holding company regulated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the Federal Reserve). We recently applied to the Federal Reserve for approval to pay our quarterly cash dividend. We were advised by the Federal Reserve that the dividend application would not be approved. Accordingly, we withdrew our application and discontinued our quarterly cash dividend. The Company does not anticipate being permitted to declare a cash dividend in the near future. Accordingly, there can no assurances as to whether, or in what amounts, cash dividends will be declared in the future or, if declared, whether they will continue or be suspended or discontinued.
