Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
As previously reported, Orrstown Bank, the wholly-owned bank subsidiary of Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. (“Orrstown” or the “Company”), was the victim of a phishing attack in October 2017. Upon discovery of the attack in the third quarter of 2018, the Company apprised Wesco Insurance Company, a subsidiary of AmTrust Financial Services, Inc. (“Wesco”), its cyber insurance carrier, of the incident. Orrstown Bank engaged third party cyber security experts and other professionals, including a credit notification and monitoring services provider, and incurred approximately $765,000 in fees and expenses related to the incident. Orrstown notified Wesco of its response efforts and expected to receive an insurance reimbursement of approximately $615,000 from Wesco for the cyber incident claim, which amount has been carried as a receivable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.
The Company believes that its policy provides coverage for the expenses related to the incident but the Company has been notified by Wesco that the claim has been denied in its entirety.
The Company believes that the basis for Wesco’s denial is improper and intends to assert its rights to coverage of the expenses. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company’s position regarding coverage will prevail or, if it does prevail, that the coverage will be sufficient to reimburse the Company for the entire amount of the receivable.
Pending resolution of its insurance claim, the Company has recorded a pretax expense of $615,000, or approximately $0.05 per diluted share, in its first quarter results for 2019.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements reflect the current views of Orrstown’s management with respect to, among other things, future events. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “predict,” “potential,” “believe,” “will likely result,” “expect,” “continue,” “will,” “anticipate,” “seek,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “goal,” “target,” “would” and “outlook,” or the negative variations of those words or other comparable words of a future or forward-looking nature. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about Orrstown’s industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond Orrstown’s control. Accordingly, Orrstown cautions you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Although Orrstown believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and Orrstown does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.
