Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations – Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. (the “Company”) is a bank holding company (that has elected status as a financial holding company with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “FRB”)) whose primary activity consists of supervising its wholly-owned subsidiary, Orrstown Bank (the “Bank”). The Company operates through its office in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania. The Bank provides services through its network of 22 offices in Cumberland, Franklin, Lancaster, 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 Company and the Bank are subject to the regulation of certain federal and state agencies and undergo periodic examinations by such regulatory authorities.

Basis of Presentation – The unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiary are presented for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 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 GAAP for complete financial statements. However, 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, 2013 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, 2013. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Bank. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.

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, and the valuation allowance required on its deferred tax assets. 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 Company’s 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, management’s estimate of credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio and the related allowance may change in the near term.

The Company has established a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets at June 30, 2014, based on the Company’s previous taxable losses, projections for future taxable income, and other available evidence, in which management determined it was “more likely than not” that some portion of the asset may not be realized. Management may need to modify its judgment in this regard from one quarter to the next, and should continued improvement occur in operating performance, the need for a full valuation allowance may be reduced or eliminated.

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 specifies 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 June 30, 2014, through the date these financial statements were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”).

Concentration of Credit Risk – The Company grants 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 customer’s 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 management’s credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies, but generally includes real estate and equipment.

Table of Contents

The types of securities the Company invests in are included in Note 2, “Securities Available for Sale” and the types 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 due on demand, all of which have original maturities of 90 days or less.

Restricted Investments in Bank Stocks – Restricted investments in bank stocks, which represents required investments in the common stock of correspondent banks, is carried at cost as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, and consists of common stock of the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia (“Federal Reserve Bank”), Atlantic Community Bankers Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”) stocks.

Management evaluates the restricted investment in bank stocks for impairment in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) Topic 942, Accounting by Certain Entities (Including Entities with Trade Receivables) That Lend to or Finance the Activities of Others. Management’s determination of whether these investments are impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of their cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the correspondent bank as compared to the capital stock amount for the correspondent bank and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the correspondent bank to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the correspondent bank, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the correspondent bank.

Management believes no impairment charge is necessary related to the restricted investment in bank stocks as of June 30, 2014. However, security impairment analysis is completed quarterly and the determination that no impairment had occurred as of June 30, 2014 is no assurance that impairment may not occur in the future.

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 June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 the Company had 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 and approximate the level yield method. 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 the accounting guidance related to recognition and presentation of other-than-temporary impairment (FASB ASC 820-10). This 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 that 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. For held-to-maturity debt securities, the amount of an other-than-temporary impairment recorded in other comprehensive income for the noncredit portion of a previous other-than-temporary impairment should be amortized prospectively over the remaining life of the security on the basis of the timing of future estimated cash flows of the security.

The Company had no debt securities it deemed to be other than temporarily impaired at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

The Company’s securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate risk, market risk, 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 Held for Sale – Loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the 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.

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 Company’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent largely upon the real estate and general economic conditions in this area.

Table of Contents

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. 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 management’s 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, the loan has performed in accordance with the contractual terms of the note for a reasonable period of time, generally six 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.

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 debtor’s financial difficulties. Concessions granted under a troubled debt restructuring typically involve a temporary deferral of scheduled loan payments, an extension of a loan’s stated maturity date, temporary reduction in interest rates, or granting of an interest rate below market rates given the risk of the transaction. 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 six months after modification, and the borrower continues to demonstrate its ability to meet the modified terms. Troubled debt restructurings that are not collateral dependent, 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 management’s 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 borrower’s 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.

Loans Serviced – The Bank administers secondary market mortgage programs available through the FHLB and the Federal National Mortgage Association and offers residential mortgage products and services to customers. The Bank originates, through these programs, single-family residential mortgage loans for immediate sale in the secondary market, and retains the servicing of those loans. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 the balance of loans serviced for others was $319,000,000 and $322,653,000.

Transfers of Financial Assets – Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.

Premises and Equipment – Buildings, improvements, equipment, furniture and fixtures are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Land is carried at cost. Depreciation and amortization has been provided generally on the straight-line method and is computed over the estimated useful lives of the various assets as follows: buildings and improvements, including leasehold improvements – 10 to 40 years; and furniture and equipment – 3 to 15 years. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred, while major additions and improvements are capitalized. Gain or loss on retirement or disposal of individual assets is recorded as income or expense in the period of retirement or disposal.

Mortgage Servicing Rights – The estimated fair value of mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) related to loans sold and serviced by the Company is recorded as an asset upon the sale of such loan. MSRs are amortized as a reduction to servicing income over the estimated lives of the underlying loans. MSRs are evaluated periodically for impairment, by comparing the carrying amount to estimated fair value. Fair value is determined periodically through a discounted cash flows valuation performed by a third party. Significant inputs to the valuation include expected servicing income, net of expense, the discount rate and the expected life of the underlying loans. To the extent the amortized cost of the MSRs exceeds their estimated fair values, a valuation allowance is

established for such impairment through a charge against servicing income on the consolidated statement of income. If the Company determines, based on subsequent valuations, that impairment no longer exists or is reduced, the valuation allowance is reduced through a credit to earnings.

Foreclosed Real Estate – Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less estimated costs to sell the underlying collateral. Capitalized costs include any costs that significantly improve the value of the properties. After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the real estate is carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Foreclosed real estate totaled $1,415,000 and $987,000 as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and is included in other assets.

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase (“Repurchase Agreements”) – The Company enters into agreements under which it sells securities subject to an obligation to repurchase the same or similar securities which are included in short-term borrowings. Under these agreements, the Company may transfer legal control over the assets but still retain effective control through an agreement that both entitles and obligates the Company to repurchase the assets. As a result, these Repurchase Agreements are accounted for as collateralized financing arrangements (i.e., secured borrowings) and not as a sale and subsequent repurchase of securities. The obligation to repurchase the securities is reflected as a liability in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, while the securities underlying the Repurchase Agreements remain in the respective investment securities asset accounts. In other words, there is no offsetting or netting of the investment securities assets with the Repurchase Agreement liabilities. In addition, as the Company does not enter into reverse Repurchase Agreements, there is no such offsetting to be done with the Repurchase Agreements.

The right of setoff for a Repurchase Agreement resembles a secured borrowing, whereby the collateral would be used to settle the fair value of the Repurchase Agreement should the Company be in default (e.g., fails to make an interest payment to the counterparty). For the Repurchase Agreements, the collateral is held by the Company in a segregated custodial account under a third party agreement.

Advertising – The Company follows the policy of charging costs of advertising to expense as incurred. Advertising expense was $133,000 and $122,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and $366,000 and $177,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

Stock Compensation Plans – The Company has stock compensation plans that cover 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 award, including a Black-Scholes model for stock options. Compensation cost for all stock awards is calculated and recognized over the employee’s 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 basis of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur.

Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred tax assets are recognized if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term more likely than not means a likelihood of more than 50 percent; the terms examined and upon examination also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date and is subject to management’s judgment. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, on income taxes as a component of income tax expense.

Treasury Stock – Common stock shares repurchased are recorded as treasury stock at cost.

Earnings Per Share – Basic earnings per share represent net income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings 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 (loss) – Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income is limited to unrealized gains (losses) on securities available for sale for all years presented.

The component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of taxes, at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consisted of unrealized gains (losses) on securities available for sale and totaled $1,285,000 and ($4,813,000).

Fair Value of Financial Instruments – Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in Note 8. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.

Segment Reporting – The Company only operates in one significant segment – Community Banking. The Company’s non-banking activities are insignificant to the consolidated financial statements.

Reclassification – Certain amounts in the 2013 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2014 presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements – In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. ASU 2013-11 applies to all entities that have unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists at the reporting date. An unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The assessment of whether a deferred tax asset is available is based on the unrecognized tax benefit and deferred tax asset that exist at the reporting date and should be made presuming disallowance of the tax position at the reporting date. The amendments should be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted. The Company’s adoption of this standard on January 1, 2014 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-01, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects. ASU 2014-01 permit reporting entities to make an accounting policy election to account for their investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense (benefit). The amendments in ASU 2014-01 should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. A reporting entity that uses the effective yield method to account for its investments in qualified affordable housing projects before the date of adoption may continue to apply the effective yield method for those pre-existing investments. ASU 2014-01 is effective for public business entities for annual periods and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-04, Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure. ASU 2014-04 clarifies that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additionally, the amendments require interim and annual disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. ASU 2014-04 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. An entity can elect to adopt the amendments in ASU 2014-04 using either a modified retrospective transition method or a prospective transition method. ASU 2014-04 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09, creates a new topic, Topic 606, to provide guidance on revenue recognition for entities that enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enter into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Additional disclosures are required to provide quantitative and qualitative information regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from

contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures. ASU 2014-11 changes the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and linked repurchase financings to secured borrowing accounting, which is consistent with the accounting for other repurchase agreements. The pronouncement also requires two new disclosures. The first disclosure requires an entity to disclose information on transfers accounted for as sales in transactions that are economically similar to repurchase agreements. The second disclosure provides increased transparency about the types of collateral pledged in repurchase agreements and similar transactions accounted for as secured borrowings. ASU 2014-11 is effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is not permitted. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 2. SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE

At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the investment securities portfolio was comprised exclusively of securities classified as “available for sale,” resulting in investment securities being carried at fair value. The amortized cost and fair values of investment securities available for sale at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were:

The Company had 40 securities and 77 securities at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 in which the amortized cost exceeds their values, as discussed below.

U.S. Agencies and Government Sponsored Enterprises (GSE). Twenty-four U.S. Agencies and GSE securities, including mortgage-backed securities, have amortized costs which exceed their fair values, 11 of which are in the less than 12 months category at June 30, 2014. At December 31, 2013, the Company had 46 U.S. Government Agencies and GSE securities, including mortgage-backed and collateralized mortgage obligations with unrealized losses, 38 GSE securities have amortized costs which exceed their fair values for less than 12 months, and eight have amortized costs which exceed their fair values for more than 12 months. 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 par value basis of the investments. Because, at period end, the Company did 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 basis, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2014 or at December 31, 2013.

State and Political Subdivisions. Sixteen state and political subdivision securities have amortized costs which exceeded their fair value for more than 12 months at June 30, 2014. At December 31, 2013, 31 state and political subdivision securities have an amortized cost which exceeds their fair value for less than 12 months. These unrealized losses have been caused by a rise in interest rates from the time the securities were purchased. Management considers the investment rating, the state of the issuer of the security and other credit support in determining whether the security is other-than-temporarily impaired. Because, at period end, the Company did 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 basis, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2014 or at December 31, 2013.

NOTE 3. LOANS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The Company’s 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. Consistent with ASU 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Loan Losses, 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 borrower’s ability to repay its loans, and impact the associated collateral.

The Company has 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 borrower’s 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 borrower’s ability to repay the loan could be in jeopardy.

Non-owner occupied and multi-family commercial real estate loans and non-owner occupied residential loans present a different credit risk to the Company than owner-occupied commercial real estate loans, as the repayment of the loan is dependent upon the borrower’s ability to generate a sufficient level of occupancy to produce rental income that exceeds debt service requirements and operating expenses. Lower occupancy or lease rates may result in a reduction in cash flows, which hinders the ability of the borrower to meet debt service requirements, and may result in lower collateral values. The Company generally recognizes that greater risk is inherent in these credit relationships as compared to owner occupied loans mentioned above 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 Company’s ability to assess the property’s value at the completion of the project, which should exceed the property’s 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.

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 borrower’s accounts receivable, inventory and machinery and equipment. In a significant number of these loans, the collateral also includes the business, real estate or the business owner’s personal real estate or assets. Commercial and

Table of Contents

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 its 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 typical. However, these procedures cannot eliminate the risk of loss associated with commercial and industrial lending.

Municipal loans consist of extensions of credit to municipalities and school districts within the Company’s market area. These loans generally present a lower risk than commercial and industrial loans, as they are generally secured by the municipality’s full taxing authority, by revenue obligations, or by its ability to raise assessments on its customers for a specific utility.

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 loan. The Company’s 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 limit the loan-to-value ratio to generally no more than 80% upon loan origination, 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 43%.

Installment and other loans’ credit risk are mitigated through conservative underwriting standards, including the evaluation of the credit worthiness of the borrower through 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 typically present a greater risk to the Company than 1-4 family residential loans.

The loan portfolio, excluding residential loans held for sale, broken out by classes, as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was as follows:

In order to monitor ongoing risk associated with its loan portfolio and specific loans within the segments, management uses an internal grading system. The first several rating categories, representing the lowest risk to the Bank, are combined and given a “Pass” rating. Management generally follows regulatory definitions in assigning criticized ratings to loans, including special mention, substandard, doubtful or loss. The “Special Mention” category includes loans that have potential weaknesses that may, if not monitored or corrected, weaken the asset or inadequately protect the Bank’s position at some future date. These assets pose elevated risk, but their weakness does not yet justify a more severe, or classified rating. “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 loan’s principal or interest and it is generally written off.

The Bank has a loan review policy and program which is designed to identify and manage risk in the lending function. The Enterprise Risk Management (“ERM”) Committee, comprised of executive officers and loan department personnel, is charged with the oversight of overall credit quality and risk exposure of the Bank’s 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 independent review of the Bank’s 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 commercial relationships with a committed loan balance in excess of $1,000,000. Loan review documentation is submitted to the ERM Committee no less than quarterly with a formal review and confirmation of risk rating as presented by independent loan review personnel. In addition, all relationships greater than $250,000 rated Substandard, Doubtful or Loss are reviewed by the ERM Committee on a quarterly basis, with reaffirmation of the rating as approved by the Bank’s Loan Work Out Committee or loan review staff.

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 deemed impaired. 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 borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed to determine if the loan should be placed on nonaccrual status. Nonaccrual loans in the commercial and commercial real estate portfolios and any troubled debt restructurings (“TDR’s”) 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 loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s 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.

Loan charge-offs, which may include partial charge-offs, are taken on an impaired loan that is collateral dependent if the loan’s carrying balance exceeds its collateral’s 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. Generally, 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 June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, nearly all of the Company’s impaired loans’ extent of impairment was measured based on the estimated fair value of the collateral securing the loan, except for troubled debt restructurings. By definition, troubled debt restructurings are considered impaired. All restructured loan impairments were determined based on discounted cash flows for those loans classified as troubled debt restructurings but that are still accruing interest. 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.

According to policy, updated appraisals are required annually for classified loans in excess of $250,000. 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 property’s 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 ratio (generally 70% or lower) and, after consideration of market conditions and knowledge of the property and area, it is determined by the Credit Administration staff that there has not been a significant deterioration in the collateral value, the original certified appraised value may 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 consist of 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 loan’s 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 loan 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 loans, does not have to exist in individual extensions of credit classified as substandard. As a result, the Company’s methodology includes an evaluation of certain accruing commercial real estate, acquisition and development and commercial and industrial loans rated “Substandard” to be collectively evaluated 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. Generally, 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.

The loans presented above were considered troubled debt restructurings as the result of the Company agreeing to below market interest rates for the risk of the transaction, allowing the loan to remain on interest only status, or a reduction in interest rates, in order to give the borrowers an opportunity to improve their cash flows. For troubled debt restructurings in default of their modified terms, impairment is generally determined on a collateral dependent approach, except for accruing residential mortgage troubled debt restructurings, which are generally on the discounted cash flow approach.

The Company maintains the allowance for loan losses at a level believed to be adequate by management to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio. The allowance 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 evaluation 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 connection with its quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, management continually reviews its methodology to determine if it continues to properly address the risk in the loan portfolio. For each loan class presented above, general allowances are provided for loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment, which is based on quantitative factors, principally historical loss trends for the respective loan class, adjusted for qualitative factors. In addition, an additional adjustment to the historical loss factors is made to account for delinquency and other potential risk not elsewhere defined within the Allowance for Loan and Lease Loss methodology.

The look back period for historical losses is 12 quarters, weighted one-half for the most recent four quarters, and one quarter for each of the two previous four quarter periods in order to appropriately capture the loss history in the loan segment. Management considers current economic and real estate conditions, and the trends in historical charge-off percentages that resulted from applying partial charge-offs to impaired loans, and the impact of distressed loan sales during the year in determining the look back period.

In addition to the quantitative analysis, adjustments to the reserve requirements are allocated on loans collectively evaluated for impairment based on additional qualitative factors. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the qualitative factors used by management to adjust the historical loss percentage to the anticipated loss allocation, which may range from a minus 150 basis points to a positive 150 basis points per factor, include:

Nature and Volume of Loans – Loan growth in the current and subsequent quarters based on the Bank’s targeted growth and strategic plan, coupled with the types of loans booked based on risk management and credit culture, and the number of exceptions to loan policy and supervisory loan to value exceptions, etc.

Concentrations of Credit and Changes within Credit Concentrations – Factors considered include the composition of the Bank’s overall portfolio and management’s evaluation related to concentration risk management and the inherent risk associated with the concentrations identified.

Underwriting Standards and Recovery Practices – Factors considered include changes to underwriting standards and perceived impact on anticipated losses, trends in the number of exceptions to loan policy; supervisory loan to value exceptions; and administration of loan recovery practices.

Delinquency Trends – Factors considered include the delinquency percentages noted in the portfolio relative to economic conditions, severity of the delinquencies, and whether the ratios are trending upwards or downwards.

Classified Loans Trends – Factors considered include the internal loan ratings of the portfolio, the severity of the ratings, and whether the loan segment’s ratings show a more favorable or less favorable trend, and underlying market conditions and their impact on the collateral values securing the loans.

Experience, Ability and Depth of Management/Lending staff – Factors considered include the years of experience of senior and middle management and the lending staff and turnover of the staff, and instances of repeat criticisms of ratings.

Quality of Loan Review – Factors include the years of experience of the loan review staff, in-house versus outsourced provider of review, turnover of staff and the perceived quality of their work in relation to other external information.

National and Local Economic Conditions – Ratios and factors considered include trends in the consumer price index (CPI), unemployment rates, housing price index, housing statistics compared to the prior year, bankruptcy rates, regulatory and legal environment risks and competition.

NOTE 4. INCOME TAXES

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The Bank also files an income tax return in the State of Maryland. The Company is generally no longer subject to U.S. federal, state or local income tax examination by tax authorities for years before 2010.

Included in the balance sheet at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, are tax positions related to loan charge-offs for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. Because of the impact of deferred tax accounting, other than interest and penalties, the disallowance of the shorter deductibility period would not affect the annual effective tax rate but would accelerate the payment of cash to the tax authority to an earlier period.

The components of income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 are summarized as follows:

 

		Three months ended June 30,								Six months ended June 30,

The provision for income taxes includes $211,000 and $0 of applicable income tax expense related to net security gains for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. The provision for income taxes includes $420,000 and $43,000 of applicable income tax expense related to net securities gains for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

The components of the net deferred tax asset, included in other assets, are as follows:

 

		June 30,				December 31,
(Dollars in thousands)		2014				2013
Deferred tax assets:
Allowance for loan losses		$	7,625			$	7,776

Total deferred tax liabilities			2,766				2,193
Net deferred tax asset (liability)		$	(692	)		$	2,592

As of June 30, 2014, the Company has charitable contribution, low-income housing, and net operating loss carryforwards that expire through 2019, 2034 and 2032, respectively.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers taxes paid in prior years, projected future taxable income and available tax planning strategies, and other factors in making this assessment.

Based upon the level of historical taxable income, projections for future taxable income over the periods and other available evidence, management believed it was not more likely than not that the net deferred tax asset would be realized at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Accordingly, a full valuation allowance for the net amount of the deferred tax assets, which represented future deductible temporary differences on our tax returns, was established at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Primary factors contributing to this determination included:

 

•

The Company has exhausted all of its carryback availability to 2010 – 2011, as we had recognized current federal income tax receivable which fully offset 2010 and 2011’s taxable income.

 

•

While improvement is evident, as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company was in a three-year cumulative loss position, representing significant negative evidence against the realizability of the deferred tax asset.

Although improvement is recognized, given the uncertainty of the economy and in the event economic and real estate conditions decline, additional losses may result in our loan portfolio above those already provided for. As a result, we have placed less weight on our current forecast of earnings until the point where we demonstrate sustainable additional earnings for the realization of the deferred tax asset.

NOTE 5. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND REGULATORY CAPITAL

On January 8, 2013, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the Commission covering an aggregate of up to $80,000,000 worth of common stock, preferred stock, and warrants. To date, the Company has not issued any securities registered under this shelf registration statement.

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 Company’s and Bank’s 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. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Although applicable to the Bank, prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies, including financial holding companies.

Quantitative measures established by regulators to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (as set forth in the following table) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, that the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

As of June 30, 2014, the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, an institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

On March 22, 2012, the Company and the Bank entered into a Written Agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia (the “Written Agreement”) and the Bank entered into a Consent Order with the Pennsylvania Department of Banking, now the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities (“PDB”). On April 21, 2014, the PDB terminated its Consent Order, which was replaced with a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) by and between the Bank and the PDB. The MOU, an informal regulatory action, is considered by the PDB as a lower level of regulatory action than the Consent Order.

Pursuant to the Written Agreement, the Company and the Bank agreed to, among other things: (i) adopt and implement a plan, acceptable to the Federal Reserve Bank, to strengthen oversight of management and operations; (ii) adopt and implement a plan, acceptable to the Federal Reserve Bank, to reduce the Bank’s interest in criticized and classified assets; (iii) adopt a plan, acceptable to the Federal Reserve Bank, to strengthen the Bank’s credit risk management practices; (iv) adopt and implement a program, acceptable to the Federal Reserve Bank, for the maintenance of an adequate allowance for loan and lease losses; (v) adopt and implement a written plan, acceptable to the Federal Reserve Bank, to maintain sufficient capital on a consolidated basis for the Company and on a stand-alone basis for the Bank; and (vi) revise the Bank’s loan underwriting and credit administration policies. The Bank and the Company also agreed not to declare or pay any dividend without prior approval from the Federal Reserve Bank, and the Company agreed not to incur or increase debt or to redeem any outstanding shares without prior Federal Reserve Bank approval.

The MOU requires the Bank to, among other things, submit and provide periodic updates to: (i) a business/strategic plan covering a three year period; (ii) a Profit and Budget Plan and certain capital plans; and (iii) a written plan for the continued reduction of adversely classified assets. Under the MOU, the Bank must continue to take steps necessary, consistent and with sound banking practices, to eliminate and /or correct all deficiencies specifically cited by regulators in certain reports of examination and furnish written progress reports covering the MOU. The MOU keeps in place restrictions on extending, renewing, or restructuring any credit to or for the benefit of certain borrowers whose loans have been criticized by regulators, while maintaining certain related documentation, and declaring or paying any cash dividends without the written approval of the PDB. The Bank is required to submit a written plan to strengthen Board oversight of management and Bank operations, including credit administration, credit risk management, loan review, enterprise risk management, capital, and earnings, and have and retain qualified management, substantially similar to the requirement contained in the Written Agreement. The Bank must also submit an updated written summary of the status of Bank progress in implementing its ERM program and credit risk management plan, with provisions for enhanced monitoring and control of problem assets and oversight of the loan review function.

The Written Agreement will continue until terminated by the Federal Reserve Bank, and the MOU will continue until terminated by the PDB.

NOTE 6. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were as follows:

 

		Three Months Ended								Six Months Ended

Basic earnings per share		$	0.35			$	0.42			$	0.60			$	0.61
Diluted earnings per share			0.35				0.42				0.60				0.61

Stock options amounting to 196,000 and 242,000 shares of common stock were not considered in computing diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 as their exercise would have been antidilutive as the exercise price exceeded the average market value. Stock options amounting to 201,000 and 243,000 shares of common stock were not considered in computing diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 as their exercise would have been antidilutive as the exercise price exceeded the average market value.

NOTE 7. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of its customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets. The contract amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss, in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written, is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

 

		Contract or Notional Amount
		June 30,				December 31,
(Dollars in thousands)		2014				2013
Commitments to fund:
Revolving, open ended home equity loans		$	83,389			$	86,253
1-4 family residential construction loans			1,917				2,657
Commercial real estate, construction and land development loans			4,661				2,961
Commercial, industrial and other loans			30,234				45,629
Standby letters of credit			23,733				6,267

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. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily

represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit-worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, residential real estate, and income-producing commercial properties.

Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written are conditional commitments issued by the Company 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 Company holds collateral supporting those commitments when deemed necessary by management. The current amount of liability, as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, for guarantees under standby letters of credit issued was not material.

The Company currently maintains a reserve in other liabilities totaling $590,000 and $529,000 at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 for off-balance sheet credit exposures that currently are not funded, based on historical loss experience of the related loan class. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, $131,000 and ($122,000) was expensed (recovered) through noninterest expense for this exposure and for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the amount expensed (recovered) was $61,000 and ($146,000).

The Company has sold loans to the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago as part of its Mortgage Partnership Finance Program (“MPF Program”). Under the terms of the MPF Program, there is limited recourse back to the Company for loans that do not perform in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement. Each loan that is sold under the program is “credit enhanced” such that the individual loan’s rating is raised to “AA,” as determined by the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago. The sum of total loans sold under the MPF Program with limited recourse was $58,211,000 and $61,862,000 at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, with limited recourse back to the Company on these loans of $8,508,000 at these dates. Many of the loans sold under the MPF Program have primary mortgage insurance, which reduces the Company’s overall exposure. The Company is in the process of foreclosing on loans sold under the MPF Program or recovering amounts previously charged off, with a resulting charge (recovery) of ($35,000) and 122,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, and $17,000 and $96,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. These amounts, charged to other expenses represent an estimate of the Company’s loss under its recourse exposure.

NOTE 8. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

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.

Fair value measurements under GAAP 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 valuation techniques that employ 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 Company’s own assumptions about market participants’ assumptions.

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

Table of Contents

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 Company’s securities are classified as available for sale.

The Company had no fair value liabilities measured on a recurring basis at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. A summary of assets at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, measured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis was as follows:

Certain financial assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs 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 management adjusts the appraisal value, 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 receivable 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 statements of income. Specific allocations to the allowance for loan losses or partial charge-offs were $5,923,000 and $3,238,000 at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Foreclosed Real Estate

Other real estate property acquired through foreclosure is initially recorded at the 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. Specific charges to value the real estate owned at the lower of cost or fair value on properties held at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were $420,000 and $411,000.

A summary of assets at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis is as follows:

Fair values of financial instruments

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 and Due from Banks and Interest Bearing Deposits with Banks

The carrying amounts of cash and due from banks and interest bearing deposits with banks 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.

 

33

---

Table of Contents

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.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is estimated based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income.

Deposits

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 Company’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Long-Term Debt

The fair value of the Company’s fixed rate long-term borrowings is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the Company’s 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 receivable and payable 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.

NOTE 9. CONTINGENCIES

The nature of the Company’s business generates a certain amount of litigation involving matters arising out of the ordinary course of business. Except as described below, 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.

On May 25, 2012, Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (“SEPTA”) filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania against the Company, the Bank and certain current and former directors and executive officers (collectively, the “Defendants”). The complaint alleges, among other things, that (i) in connection with the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 dated February 23, 2010 and its Prospectus Supplement dated March 23, 2010, and (ii) during the purported class period of March 24, 2010 through October 27, 2011, the Company issued materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company’s lending practices and financial results, including misleading statements concerning the stringent nature of the Bank’s credit practices and underwriting standards, the quality of its loan portfolio, and the intended use of the proceeds from the Company’s March 2010 public offering of common stock. The complaint asserts claims under Sections 11, 12(a) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and seeks class certification, unspecified money damages, interest, costs, fees and equitable or injunctive relief. Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”), motions for appointment of Lead Plaintiff in this case were due by July 24, 2012. SEPTA was the sole movant and the Court appointed SEPTA Lead Plaintiff on August 20, 2012.

Table of Contents

Pursuant to the PSLRA and the Court’s September 27, 2012 Order, SEPTA was given until October 26, 2012 to file an amended complaint and the Defendants until December 7, 2012 to file a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. SEPTA’s opposition to the Defendant’s motion to dismiss was originally due January 11, 2013. Under the PSLRA, discovery and all other proceedings in the case are stayed pending the Court’s ruling on the motion to dismiss. The September 27, 2012 Order specified that if the motion to dismiss were denied, the Court would schedule a conference to address discovery and the filing of a motion for class certification. On October 26, 2012, SEPTA filed an unopposed motion for enlargement of time to file its amended complaint in order to permit the parties and new defendants to be named in the amended complaint time to discuss plaintiff’s claims and defendants’ defenses. On October 26, 2012, the Court granted SEPTA’s motion, mooting its September 27, 2012 scheduling Order, and requiring SEPTA to file its amended complaint on or before January 16, 2013 or otherwise advise the Court of circumstances that require a further enlargement of time. On January 14, 2013, the Court granted SEPTA’s second unopposed motion for enlargement of time to file an amended complaint on or before March 22, 2013.

On March 4, 2013, SEPTA filed an amended complaint. The amended complaint expands the list of defendants in the action to include the Company’s former independent registered public accounting firm and the underwriters of the Company’s March 2010 public offering of common stock. In addition, among other things, the amended complaint extends the purported 1934 Exchange Act class period from March 15, 2010 through April 5, 2012.

Pursuant to the Court’s March 28, 2013 Second Scheduling Order, on May 28, 2013 all defendants filed their motions to dismiss the amended complaint, and on July 22, 2013 SEPTA filed its “omnibus” opposition to all of the defendants’ motions to dismiss. On August 23, 2013, all defendants filed reply briefs in further support of their motions to dismiss. On December 5, 2013, the Court ordered oral argument on the Orrstown Defendants’ motion to dismiss the amended complaint to be heard on February 7, 2014. Oral argument on the pending motions to dismiss SEPTA’s amended complaint was held on April 29, 2014. A decision from the court on the motions to dismiss is expected sometime in the next few months.

The Second Scheduling Order stays all discovery in the case pending the outcome of the motions to dismiss, and informs the parties that, if required, a telephonic conference to address discovery and the filing of SEPTA’s motion for class certification will be scheduled after the Court’s ruling on the motions to dismiss.

The matter is currently progressing through the legal process. The Orrstown Defendants believe that the allegations in the amended complaint are without merit and intend to defend themselves vigorously against those claims.

 

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

The Company is a bank holding company that has elected status as a financial holding company, with a wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Orrstown Bank. At June 30, 2014, the Company had total assets of $1,167,308,000, total liabilities of $1,064,856,000 and total shareholders’ equity of $102,452,000. Currently, the U.S. economy appears to be slowly recovering from one of its longest and most severe economic recessions in recent history. The economic recovery has been slower than anticipated, but signs of growth have continued into the second quarter of 2014. However, the continued uncertainty with the economy, together with the challenging regulatory environment, will continue to affect the Company and the markets in which it does business, and may impact the Company’s results in the future. American households are being affected by higher fuel and food costs, which affects household spending and may slow economic growth. During the middle of 2013, mortgage interest rates rose, leading to a reduction in the number of customers refinancing their residential mortgages which contributed to lower revenues.

Caution About Forward Looking Statements

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 management’s current views as to likely future developments, and use words like “may,” “will,” “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate” or similar terms. Forward-looking statements are statements that include projections, predictions, expectations, or beliefs about events or results or otherwise are not statements of historical facts, including, but not limited to, statements related to new business development, new loan opportunities, growth in the balance sheet and fee based revenue lines of business, reducing risk assets, and mitigating losses in the future. Actual results and trends could differ materially from those set forth in such statements and there can be no assurances that we will achieve the desired level of new business development and new loans, growth in the balance sheet and fee based revenue lines of business, continue to reduce risk assets or mitigate losses in the future. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from those expressed or implied by the forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: ineffectiveness of the Company’s business strategy due to changes in current or future market conditions; the effects of competition, including industry consolidation and development of competing financial products and services; changes in laws and regulations, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; interest rate movements; changes in credit quality; inability to raise capital under favorable conditions, volatilities in the securities markets; deteriorating economic conditions, and other risks and uncertainties, including those detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under the

Table of Contents

sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and in other filings made with the Commission. The statements are valid only as of the date hereof and the Company disclaims any obligation to update this information.

The following is a discussion of our consolidated financial condition at June 30, 2014 and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. 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 Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) and Notes thereto presented elsewhere in this report. Certain prior period amounts, presented in this discussion and analysis, have been reclassified to conform to current period classifications.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and follow general practices within the financial services industry in which it operates. Management, in order to prepare the Company’s 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 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 and accounting for income taxes as critical accounting policies.

The allowance for loan losses represents management’s 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.

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 management’s judgment it is “more likely than not” that some portion of the asset will not be realized. Management may need to modify its judgment 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 Company’s ability to benefit from the asset in the future. Based upon the Company’s prior cumulative taxable losses, projections for future taxable income and other available evidence, management determined that there was not sufficient positive evidence to outweigh the cumulative loss, and concluded it was not more likely than not that the net deferred tax asset would be realized. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance was recorded at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Management will continue to update its analysis quarterly, and after a period of sustainable taxable income, the valuation allowance may be reversed in part or in total. However, there can be no assurance that there will be a future reversal of all or any portion of the valuation allowance on our deferred tax asset.

Readers of the consolidated financial statements should be aware that the estimates and assumptions used in the Company’s 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.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2014 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2013

Summary

The Company recorded net income of $2,873,000 for the second quarter of 2014 compared to net income of $3,408,000 for the same period in 2013. Basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) for the second quarter of 2014 were $0.35, compared to $0.42 for the second quarter of 2013. Net interest income of $8,500,000 was $799,000 higher for the three months ended June 30, 2014 than in 2013. As a result of the improvement in the Company’s asset quality and earnings performance, the Company was able to invest its excess liquidity previously kept in interest bearing bank balances into higher yielding securities and its loan portfolio. In addition, lower average balances of nonaccrual loans allowed for greater recognition of interest income. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was favorably influenced by a negative provision for loan losses of $1,400,000 with no similar benefit in 2014. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2014 benefited from higher levels of gains on sales of securities and real estate owned, which, in the aggregate, were $893,000 higher than the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income, which is the difference between interest income and fees on interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, is the primary component of the Company’s revenue. Interest earning assets include loans, securities and interest bearing deposits with banks. 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” are two common statistics related to changes in net interest income. The net interest 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 noninterest bearing, demand deposits, certain other liabilities, and stockholders’ equity, the net interest margin exceeds the net interest spread, as these funding sources are non-interest bearing.

The table below presents net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis, net interest spread and net interest margin for the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

For the three months ended June 30, 2014, net interest income measured on a fully tax equivalent basis increased $788,000 to $8,901,000 from $8,113,000 in the corresponding period in 2013. The primary reason for the increase in net interest income was an increase in the rates on interest earning assets coupled with being able to lower the cost of funds, or interest bearing liabilities.

Interest income earned on loans decreased from $8,140,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 to $7,589,000 for the same period in 2014, a $551,000 decline. The primary reason for the decline was a decrease in rates earned from 4.84% in the quarter ended June 30, 2013 to 4.49% in the same period in 2014. Offset by an increase in the average balance of loans from $674,847,000 for the second quarter of 2013 to $677,963,000 for the same period in 2014. Competitive market conditions have led to slower growth opportunities, while also leading to lower interest rates of returns.

Securities interest income increased $1,179,000 to $2,390,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, from $1,211,000 for the same period in 2013. The average balance on securities has increased from $370,675,000 in the second quarter of 2013 to $432,335,000 for the same period in 2014. Rates earned on securities increased from a tax equivalent yield of 1.31% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 to 2.22% in the same period in 2014.

Interest expense on deposits and borrowings for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was $1,085,000, a decrease of $203,000, from $1,288,000 in the same period in 2013. The Company’s cost of funds on interest bearing liabilities has declined to 0.46% for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 from 0.53% for the same period in 2013. The interest rate environment has allowed the Company to lower the rates offered on its savings accounts, and as time deposits and long-term debt mature, it has also been able to replace the funds at slightly lower rates.

The Company’s net interest spread of 3.11% increased 28 basis points in the quarter ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013. Net interest margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 was 3.18%, a 28 basis point increase from 2.90% for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

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 Company recorded no provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to a negative provision, or a reversal of amounts previously provided, of $1,400,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company received payments on classified loans with partial charge-offs previously recorded. As these payments received during the second quarter of 2013 exceeded the carrying value of the related loans, the excess was included in recoveries of loan amounts previously charged off. As the allowance for loan losses was deemed adequate prior to those recoveries, the amount of the recoveries was recorded as a negative provision for loan losses. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, net charge-offs totaled $72,000. Both quantitative and qualitative factors are considered in the determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The favorable historical charge-off data combined with relatively stable economic and market conditions has resulted in the determination that no additional provision for loan losses was required to replenish the net charge-offs recorded and additional reserves needed on impaired loans during the three months ended June 30, 2014.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income, excluding securities gains, totaled $4,536,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $4,664,000 for the same period in 2013. Several factors contributed to the change in revenues for the second quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, as noted below.

 

•

The Company experienced a decline in service charges on deposits and other services charges from $1,723,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 to $1,659,000 for the same period in 2014. This decline reflects trends noted in more conservative consumer spending behavior.

 

•

Orrstown Financial Advisors revenues, which included trust and estate fees and brokerage income, totaled $1,788,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $1,590,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of 12.5%. Favorable market conditions led to higher trading and related commissions, as well as elevated estate fees recorded during the period.

 

•

In several recent quarters, mortgage interest rates were rising, leading to a reduction in the number of customers refinancing their residential mortgages and home sales in the Company’s primary market area have decreased. These events have resulted in lower mortgage banking income, which totaled $562,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, a decline of 49.1% from $1,105,000 in the same period of 2013. The higher interest rate environment positively impacted 2013’s results as the fair value of our mortgage servicing rights improved, which allowed for the recovery of $296,000 of our impairment reserve in the second quarter of 2013, with no similar recovery in the same period in 2014.

 

•

Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2014 of $289,000, was principally comprised of gains in sale of real estate owned totaling $259,000. The other income for the three months ended June 30, 2013, included a loss on sale of real estate owned of $32,000.

Securities gains totaled $602,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $0 for the same period in 2013. For the most recent period, asset/liability management strategies and interest rate conditions resulted in gains on sales of securities, as market conditions presented opportunities to reduce interest rate risk while maintaining earnings from our securities portfolio.

Noninterest Expenses

Noninterest expenses amounted to $10,765,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $10,327,000 for the corresponding prior year period, an increase of 4.2%. The changes in certain components of noninterest expenses between the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, as described below, are reflective of the Company’s investments to build a stronger foundation for future growth and to better serve the needs of our customers, combined with improvements in financial condition and asset quality.

 

•

As the Company began to introduce new product offerings, improve the effectiveness of alternate delivery channels and enter new markets, it experienced increased occupancy, furniture and equipment, and data processing expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, these expenses totaled $1,730,000, an increase of 17.4% over the $1,473,000 for the same period in 2013. In December 2013, the Company outsourced its core processing system to a third party provider, to capitalize on additional products and services that the provider offers. In connection with the migration to the new platform, upgrades in certain equipment were also required. In the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company opened its financial services facility office in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, resulting in a full quarter of occupancy charges in the second quarter of 2014, with no corresponding charge in the same period in 2013.

 

•

Salaries and employee benefits totaled $5,879,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of 9.1% over the same period in 2013, and a 1.2% increase over the first quarter of 2014. The increase in salaries and benefits is primarily the result of additions to staff that were hired in the latter part of 2013, allowing for enhanced risk management processes and practices and greater depth in the information technology and operations departments, and less reliance on outside consultants. As previously announced, the Company eliminated 32 positions in its operations and retail staff in the second quarter of 2014, and incurred approximately $150,000 of charges in connection with this reduction in workforce in the second quarter of 2014. The 1.2% increase in salaries and benefits for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the first three months of 2014 was the result of company-wide merit increases which took effect in the second quarter, severance charges, and work through dates of severed employees through the second quarter as the Company transitioned work responsibilities. It is anticipated that greater savings from the workforce reduction will result in the third quarter of 2014.

 

•

Advertising and bank promotions expense decreased $56,000 to $218,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $274,000 for the same period in 2013. Advertising and bank promotions were used to advance the Company’s growth initiatives and introduction of new products and services, including the Bank’s first ever advertising on television and increased direct mail efforts. The Company accelerated some of its planned annual marketing spending into the first quarter of 2014, which resulted in lower marketing expenses in the second quarter of 2014 in comparison to the same period in the prior year.

FDIC insurance expense decreased $267,000 to $359,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $626,000 for the same period in 2013. The 42.7% decrease is primarily the result of a lower assessment rate, as the Company’s risk profile improved.

 

•

Taxes, other than income, decreased from $244,000 for the second quarter of 2013 to $156,000 for the second quarter in 2014, due to a change in the assessment rate and methodology for state bank shares tax.

The Company’s efficiency ratio increased slightly for the three months ended June 30, 2014 to 81.1% compared to 80.1% for the same period in 2013. The higher, or less favorable, ratio between the periods presented was primarily the result of higher noninterest expenses in comparison to the increases noted in revenues. The efficiency ratio expresses noninterest expense as a percentage of tax equivalent net interest income and noninterest income, excluding securities gains, intangible asset amortization and other real estate income and expenses.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense totaled $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $30,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013. During the third quarter of 2012, an evaluation was completed on the net deferred tax asset that existed at that time, which principally resulted from credit and credit related losses and expenses that the Company had experienced. As a result of the taxable losses that were generated during 2012, and our inability to fully offset the tax to the two preceding carryback years allowed by tax regulation, our net deferred tax asset was dependent on tax planning strategies and future taxable income. Based on forecasted taxable income at that time, combined with limited available tax planning strategies, we were not able to conclude that the deferred tax asset would more likely than not be realized in its entirety, and as such, a valuation allowance was established for the full amount beginning in the third quarter of 2012, which resulted in a charge at that time of $19,872,000. As of June 30, 2014, while improvements have been noted in our operating results, we continue to believe that the valuation allowance is appropriate. The evaluation is updated quarterly and if the Company continues to experience profitability, reversal of the valuation in part, or in full, becomes more likely. The tax expense in 2013 pertains to estimated federal alternative minimum tax.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2014 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2013

Summary

The Company recorded net income of $4,851,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to net income of $4,968,000 for the same period in 2013. Basic and diluted EPS for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were $0.60, compared to $0.61 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. As a result of the improvement in the Company’s asset quality and earnings performance, the Company was able to invest its excess liquidity previously kept in interest bearing bank balances into higher yielding securities and its loan portfolio. In addition, lower average balances of nonaccrual loans allowed for greater recognition of interest income.

Net Interest Income

The table below presents net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis, net interest spread and net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, net interest income measured on a fully tax equivalent basis increased $1,168,000 to $17,843,000 from $16,675,000 in the corresponding period in 2013. The primary reason for the increase in net interest income was an increase in the rates on interest earning assets coupled with being able to lower the cost of funds, or interest bearing liabilities.

Interest income earned on loans decreased from $16,669,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 to $15,330,000 for the same period in 2014, a $1,339,000 decline. The primary reason for the decline was the average balance of loans decreased from $684,835,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $675,178,000 for the same period in 2014, and a decrease in rates earned from 4.91% in the quarter ended June 30, 2013 to 4.58% in the same period in 2014. Loans paying off at higher rates than the new loans originated, as well as competitive market conditions have led to the decline in interest rates.

Securities interest income increased $2,108,000 to $4,668,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, from $2,560,000 for the same period in 2013. The average balance on securities has increased from $356,453,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $422,703,000 for the same period in 2014. Rates earned on securities increased from a tax equivalent yield of 1.45%

for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to 2.23% in the same period in 2014. Investments in higher yielding securities, as well as slower prepayment speeds on mortgage-backed securities led to an increase in yields earning on securities.

Interest expense on deposits and borrowings for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $1,916,000, a decrease of $447,000, from $2,363,000 in the same period in 2013. The Company’s cost of funds on interest bearing liabilities has declined to 0.46% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from 0.55% for the same period in 2013. The interest rate environment has allowed the Company to lower the rates offered on its demand deposits, including interest bearing demand, money market and savings, and as time deposits and long-term debt mature, it has also been able to replace the funds at slightly lower rates.

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 Company recorded no provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The Company recorded a negative provision for loan losses, or a reversal of amounts previously provided, of $1,400,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. In the past six quarters, the Company has recorded net recoveries of $409,000, which has resulted in favorable net charge-off ratios during this period. Both quantitative and qualitative factors are considered in the determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The favorable historical charge-off data combined with stable economic and market conditions has resulted in the determination that no additional provision for loan losses was required to replenish the net charge-offs recorded during the second quarter of 2014.

While management believes the Company’s allowance for loan losses is adequate based on information currently available, future adjustments, including additional provisions for loan losses or the reversal of amounts previously provided, to the reserve and enhancements to the methodology may be necessary due to changes in economic conditions, regulatory guidance, or management’s assumptions as to future delinquencies or loss rates.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income, excluding securities gains, totaled $8,377,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $8,974,000 for the same period in 2013. Several factors contributed to the change in revenues for the second quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, as noted below.

 

•

The Company experienced a decline in service charges on deposits and other services charges from $3,365,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $3,116,000 for the same period in 2014. This decline reflects trends noted in more conservative consumer spending behavior and lower loan balances.

 

•

Brokerage income of $1,017,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 represented a decrease of $59,000 from the same period in 2013, due primarily to elevated commission volumes on insurance products in 2013. Partially offsetting these unfavorable variances were trust fees generated by Orrstown Financial Advisors, which totaled $2,427,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of 6.5% from the same period in 2013, partially attributable to higher estate fees in 2014 as compared to 2013.

 

•

During the past several quarters, mortgage interest rates have risen, leading to a reduction in the number of customers refinancing their residential mortgages and home sales in the Company’s primary market have decreased. These events have resulted in an $836,000 decline in mortgage banking revenues to $1,021,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. The high interest rate environment positively impacted 2013’s results as the fair value of our mortgage servicing rights improved, which allowed for the recovery of $364,000 of our impairment reserve in the first six months of 2013, with no similar recovery in the same period in 2014.

 

•

Other income of $324,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was a $406,000 improvement on the $82,000 loss reported for the same period in 2013. The primary reason for the increase was due to $259,000 in gains on sales of other real estate owned for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $158,000 in losses recorded for the same period in 2013.

Securities gains totaled $1,199,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $122,000 for the same period in 2013. For both periods, asset/liability management strategies and interest rate conditions resulted in gains on sales of securities, as market conditions presented opportunities to reduce interest rate risk while maintaining earnings from our securities portfolio.

Noninterest Expenses

Noninterest expenses amounted to $21,741,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $21,276,000 for the corresponding prior year period. The changes in certain components of noninterest expenses between the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2014, as described below.

 

•

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, furniture and equipment, data processing, and occupancy expenses totaled $3,582,000, an increase of 22.4% over the $2,926,000 for the same period in 2013. In December 2013, the Company outsourced its core processing system to a third party provider, to capitalize on additional products and services that the outsourced solution offered. In connection with the migration to the new platform, upgrades in certain equipment were also required. In the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company opened its financial services facility office in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, resulting in a full six months of occupancy charges in the first three months of 2014, with no corresponding charge in the same period in 2013.

 

•

Salaries and employee benefits totaled $11,691,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $11,133,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $558,000, or 5.0%. The increase in salaries and benefits is primarily the result of additions to staff that were hired in the latter part of 2013, allowing for enhanced risk management processes and practices and greater depth in the information technology and operations departments, and less reliance on outside consultants.

 

•

Advertising and bank promotions expense increased $158,000 to $643,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $485,000 for the same period in 2013. Advertising and bank promotions were used to advance the Company’s growth initiatives and introduction of new products and services, including the Bank’s first ever advertising on television and increased direct mail efforts.

Professional service fees, including loan review assistance, legal fees and accounting expenses, have decreased $162,000 to $1,176,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, from $1,338,000 in the same period in 2013. The decrease was primarily the result of costs associated with the settlement of litigation which were incurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2013, with no similar charge in 2014.

Taxes, other than income, decreased from $488,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 to $314,000 for the same period in 2014, due to a change in the assessment rate and methodology for state bank shares tax.

The Company’s efficiency ratio increased for the six months ended June 30, 2014 to 83.1%, compared to 81.8% for the same period in 2013. The higher, or less favorable, ratio between the two periods was primarily the result of higher noninterest expenses in comparison to the increases noted in revenues.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense totaled $0 and $60,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, on pre-tax income of $4,851,000, and $5,028,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. As a result of our net operating loss carry forwards, combined with a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax asset, no income tax expense was recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The net expense in 2013 pertains to estimated federal alternative minimum tax.

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 June 30, 2014, securities available for sale were $389,961,000, a decrease of $16,982,000, from December 31, 2013’s balance of $406,943,000. Many of the securities have monthly cash flows which will provide cash flow to fund loan growth as the loan pipeline expands.

Loan Portfolio

The Company offers various products to meet the credit needs of our borrowers, principally consisting of commercial real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, and retail loans consisting of loans secured by residential properties, and to a lesser extent, installment loans. No loans are extended to non-domestic borrowers or governments.

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 borrower’s ability to repay its loans, and impact the associated collateral. See Note 3, “Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan Losses,” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a detailed description of the Company’s loan classes and differing levels of credit risk associated with each class, which information is incorporated herein by reference.

Installment and other loans			5,956				6,184
		$	678,854			$	671,037

The loan portfolio at June 30, 2014 of $678,854,000 reflected an increase of $7,816,000 from $671,037,000 at December 31, 2013. Growth was achieved in the portfolio despite active loan collection efforts, in which the Company collected $9,400,000 in pay downs/payoffs, charge-offs or foreclosure on nonaccrual loans during the six months ended June 30, 2014. Current economic and market conditions in the Company’s markets have tempered loan growth, and competition for new business opportunities remains strong.

Asset Quality

Risk Elements

The Company’s loan portfolios are subject to varying degrees of credit risk. Credit risk is mitigated through the Company’s underwriting standards, on-going credit review, and monitoring of asset quality measures. Additionally, loan portfolio diversification, limiting exposure to a single industry or borrower, and requiring collateral also mitigate the Company’s risk of credit loss.

The Company’s loan portfolio is principally 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 debtor’s 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 risk assets. For all loan classes, the accrual of interest income 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 management’s 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, the loans have performed in accordance with the contractual terms of the note for a reasonable period of time, generally six 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.

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 debtor’s financial difficulties. Concessions granted under a troubled debt restructuring typically involve a temporary deferral of scheduled loan payments, an extension of a loan’s 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 six 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 Company’s risk elements, including information concerning the aggregate balances of nonaccrual, restructured loans still accruing, loans past due 90 days or more, and foreclosed real estate as of June 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013.

The Company takes partial charge-offs on collateral dependent loans whose carrying value exceeded their estimated fair value, as determined by the most recent appraisal adjusted for current (within the quarter) conditions, less costs to dispose. ASC 310 impairment reserves remain in those situations in which updated appraisals are pending, and represent management’s estimate of potential loss.

Of the relationships deemed to be impaired at June 30, 2014, four have outstanding book balances in excess of $1,000,000, totaling $12,323,000, or 46% of the total impaired loan balance. Sixty-four of the relationships, or 71% of the total number of impaired relationships, have recorded balances less than $250,000. A summary of the impaired relationships in excess of $1,000,000 are discussed below.

In the second quarter of 2014, the Company classified a $5,450,000 relationship as impaired, after it was determined that the borrowers’ cash flows appeared to be insufficient to meet its debt service requirements. After an evaluation of the loan, it was determined an impairment reserve of $2,800,000 was warranted, based on the deficiency of the collateral. The Company has not taken a charge-off on the loan as of June 30, 2014, as it is in preliminary stages of work out with the borrower and its guarantor, and has ordered a new appraisal.

In 2013, the Company classified a relationship with a borrower in the food service and entertainment industry as impaired, based on the restructuring negotiations with the borrower. Although the restructured note matured in May 2014, and is included in the 30-89 days past due category, monthly principal and interest payments continue to be made and the Company anticipates extending the maturity date. Management expects the note to continue to perform and considers the loan adequately supported by the collateral securing the note, allowing for the note to remain on accrual status. This relationship, with a balance of nearly $3,500,000 at June 30, 2014, is classified as impaired, as by definition, troubled debt restructurings are impaired. After evaluation of the relationship in accordance with impairment guidance, it was determined no reserve was required.

An additional relationship that the Company has determined to be impaired at June 30, 2014 is with a real estate developer who also actively leases residential properties. This relationship consists of separate loans with total outstanding book balances of $2,000,000, secured by different parcels of land or residential structures. Recent appraisals on the collateral securing the outstanding loans resulted in the relationship being placed in nonaccrual status, as the softening of real estate prices and rental prices, and the lengthening of absorption periods resulted in it being classified and evaluated as a collateral dependent impaired loan. To date, partial charge-offs or specific reserves of approximately 25.0% of the outstanding loan balances have been taken.

In the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company moved a note to a commercial lessor with an outstanding balance of approximately $1,450,000 to nonaccrual status. The balance of the note at June 30, 2014 was $1,370,000. This decision was made, despite the loan being current as to both principal and interest, as a result of declining cash flows of the Company, and the potential for further reduction in cash available to service debt in the near future. The Company believes it is well secured on this loan, and does not feel a loss will be incurred on it.

The Company has approximately 81 additional relationships with borrowers that include loans that are individually evaluated for impairment, and has taken a similar approach to those mentioned above in determining the extent of full or partial charge-offs that were required, or ASC 310 reserves that may be needed. The determination of the Company’s charge-offs or impairment reserve determination included an evaluation of the outstanding loan balance, and the related collateral securing the credit. Through a combination of collateral securing the loans and partial charge-offs taken to date, the Company believes that it has adequately provided for the potential losses that it may incur on these relationships as of June 30, 2014. However, over time, additional information may become known that could result in increased reserve allocations or, alternatively, it may be deemed that the reserve allocations exceed those that are needed.

The Company’s foreclosed real estate balance of $1,415,000 consists of 11 properties owned by the Company, six of which were commercial properties and totaled $1,045,000, and five residential properties that totaled $370,000. The largest commercial property is a commercial land parcel with a carrying value of $266,000. A second commercial property with a carrying value of $262,000 was land originally purchased by the Company for future expansion purposes. During 2011, it was determined that this property was no longer in the Company’s strategic plans, and as such, the Company re-designated the property as held for sale. The remaining properties have carrying values less than $210,000 and are also carried at the lower of cost or fair value, less costs to dispose.

As of June 30, 2014, the Company believes the value of foreclosed assets represents their fair values, but if the real estate market remains challenging, additional charges may be needed.

Credit Risk Management

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company maintains the allowance for loan losses at a level believed adequate by management to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio. The allowance 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 evaluation of impaired loans, 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.

The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s 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 borrower’s 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” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of the methodology for establishing the allowance and provision for loan losses and related procedures in establishing the appropriate level of reserve, which information is incorporated herein by reference.

Potential problem loans are defined as performing loans, which have characteristics that cause management to have concerns 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 borrower’s ability to continue to perform under the terms of the loan, and represent potential problem loans. Additionally, the “Special Mention” classification is intended to be a temporary classification, and is reflective of loans that have potential weaknesses that may, if not monitored or corrected, weaken the asset or inadequately protect the Bank’s position at some future date. “Special Mention” loans represent an elevated risk, but their weakness does not yet justify a more severe, or classified rating. These loans require follow-up by lenders on the information that may cause the potential weakness, and once resolved, the loan classification may be downgraded to “Substandard,” or alternatively, could be upgraded to “Pass.”

The allowance for loan losses totaled $20,425,000 at June 30, 2014, a decrease of $540,000 from $20,965,000 at December 31, 2013, principally due to a net charge-off recorded during the period, with no provision for loan losses. Despite a decline from December 31, 2013, asset quality metrics remain strong, with the allowance for total loans ratio at 3.01% at June 30, 2014, and the allowance for loan losses to nonaccrual loans coverage ratio at 99.5%.

A summary of relevant asset quality ratios for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 are as follows:

 

		Three Months Ended June 30,								Six Months Ended June 30,
		2014				2013				2014				2013
Ratio of annualized net charge-offs to average loans outstanding			0.04	%			0.25	%			0.16	%			0.49	%
Provision for loan losses to net charge-offs			0.00	%			(334.13	)%			0.00	%			(83.93	)%

Net charge-offs were $72,000 and $540,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $419,000 and $1,668,000 for the same periods in 2013. The lower levels of charge-offs in 2014 significantly decreased the annualized ratio of charge-offs to average loans outstanding and reduced the provision for loan losses to charge-off ratio. The majority of the charge-offs remain in the commercial real estate loan portfolios.

The following summarizes the ending loan balance individually or collectively evaluated for impairment based upon loan type, as well as the allowance for loan losses allocation for each at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Despite an increase in the commercial real estate segment’s allowance for loan losses individually evaluated for impairment from $552,000 at December 31, 2013 to $2,945,000 at June 30, 2014, the Company has not recorded a provision for loan losses during 2014. The reason a provision was not required is a result of the Company’s favorable historical charge-off data combined with relatively stable and economic and market conditions, which allowed for the reduction in the reserve requirements needed for loans collectively evaluated for impairment, in total, which funded the specific reserve needs.

The allowance for loan losses allocations presented above represent the reserve allocations on loan balances outstanding at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. In addition to the reserve allocations on impaired loans noted above, 27 loans, with outstanding general ledger principal balances of $4,717,000, have had cumulative partial charge-offs to the allowance for loan losses recorded totaling $2,855,000 at June 30, 2014. As updated appraisals were received on collateral dependent loans, partial charge-offs were taken to the extent the loans’ principal balance exceeded their fair value.

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 outlined in “Note 3 – Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan Losses” included in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Management re-evaluates and makes certain enhancements to its methodology used to establish a reserve to better reflect the risks inherent in the different segments of the portfolio, particularly in light of changes in levels of charge-offs, with noticeable differences between the different loan segments. Management believes these enhancements to the allowance for loan losses methodology improve the accuracy of quantifying losses presently inherent in the portfolio. Management charges actual loan losses to the reserve and bases the provision for loan losses on the overall analysis taking the methodology into account.

The unallocated portion of the allowance for loan losses reflects estimated inherent losses within the portfolio that have not been detected. This reserve results due to risk of error in the specific and general reserve allocation, other potential exposure in the loan portfolio, variances in management’s assessment of national and local economic conditions and other factors management believes appropriate at the time. The unallocated portion of the allowance has decreased from $2,068,000 at December 31, 2013 to $1,801,000 at June 30, 2014 and represents 8.8% of the entire allowance for loan losses balance at June 30, 2014, down slightly from 9.9% at December 31, 2013.

While management believes the Company’s allowance for loan losses is adequate based on information currently available, future adjustments, including additional provisions for loan losses or the reversal of amounts previously provided, to the reserve and enhancements to the methodology may be necessary due to changes in economic conditions, regulatory guidance, or management’s assumptions as to future delinquencies or loss rates.

Deposits

Total deposits were $981,705,000 at June 30, 2014, a decrease of $18,685,000, or 1.9%, from $1,000,390,000 at December 31, 2013. Despite the decrease in total deposits, there was a shift to non-interest bearing deposits, which grew by $5,533,000, or 4.81%. Growth was experienced in deposit products, with the exception of time deposits, which are interest rate sensitive, and municipal deposits, given the seasonality of them.

Capital Adequacy and Regulatory Matters

Capital Resources. 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 Company’s capital management strategies have historically been developed to provide attractive rates of returns to its shareholders, while maintaining a “well capitalized” position of regulatory strength.

Total shareholders’ equity increased $11,013,000 from $91,439,000 at December 31, 2013 to $102,452,000 at June 30, 2014. The primary reason for the increase in shareholders’ equity was the $4,851,000 net income retained for the six months ended, combined with a $6,098,000 increase in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of taxes.

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 Company’s and Bank’s 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. Although applicable to the Bank, prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies, including financial holding companies.

Capital Adequacy. In the determination of Tier 1 and Total risk based capital, generally accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is excluded from capital, as are intangible assets, a portion of mortgage servicing rights and deferred tax assets that is dependent on future taxable income greater than one year from the reporting date. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company provided a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax asset, which reduced the deferred tax asset, excluding other comprehensive income items, to zero.

The allowance for credit losses, including the allowance for loan losses and reserve for off-balance sheet credit commitments, is included as Tier 2 capital to the extent it does not exceeds 1.25% of risk weighted assets. The amount that exceeds 1.25% of risk weighted assets, is disallowed as Tier 2 capital, but also reduces the Company’s risk weighted assets. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $12,085,000 and $12,598,000 of the allowance for credit losses was excluded from Tier 2 capital.

In March 2012, the Company and the Bank entered into a Written Agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank and the Bank entered into a Consent Order with the PDB. The Consent Order with the PBD has subsequently been terminated and replaced with an MOU, which contains similar provisions pertaining to capital. In accordance therewith, the Bank has filed a confidential Capital Plan with each of those banking regulators.

Regulatory Capital. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Bank was considered well capitalized under applicable banking regulations. The Company’s and the Bank’s capital ratios as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were as follows:

As noted above, the Bank’s capital ratios exceed the regulatory minimums to be considered well capitalized under applicable banking regulations. The Company routinely evaluates its capital levels in light of its risk profile to assess its capital needs.

On January 8, 2013, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the Commission, covering up to an aggregate of $80,000,000 worth of common stock, preferred stock, and warrants. To date, the Company has not issued any of the securities registered under this shelf registration statement.

In October 2011, the Company announced it had discontinued its quarterly dividend, which was the result of regulatory guidance from the Federal Reserve Bank. Due to the regulatory restrictions included in the Written Agreement and the MOU with the respective regulators, the Company is restricted from paying any dividends or repurchasing any stock without prior regulatory approval. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will be permitted to pay a cash dividend or conduct any stock repurchases in the near future.

Basel III Capital Rules. In July 2013, the Company and Bank’s primary federal regulator, the FRB, approved final rules (the “Basel III Capital Rules”) establishing a new comprehensive capital framework for U.S. banking organizations, including community banks, which also incorporate provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. The Basel III Capital Rules substantially revise the risk-based capital requirements applicable to bank holding companies and depository institutions, including the Company and Bank, compared to existing U.S. risk-based capital rules. The Basel III Capital Rules define the components of capital and address other issues affecting the numerator in banking institutions’ regulatory capital ratios, addresses risk weights and other issues affecting the denominator in banking institutions’ regulatory capital ratios and replace the current risk-weighting approach. The Basel III Capital Rules are effective for the Company and Bank on January 1, 2015 (subject to a phase-in period).

The Basel III Capital Rules, among other things, (i) introduce a new capital measure called “Common Equity Tier 1” (“CET1”), (ii) specify that Tier 1 capital consist of CET1 and “Additional Tier 1 capital” instruments meeting specified requirements, (iii) define CET1 narrowly by requiring that most deductions/adjustments to regulatory capital measures be made to CET1 and not to the other components of capital and (iv) expand the scope of the deductions/adjustments from capital as compared to existing regulations.

When fully phased in on January 1, 2019, the Basel III Capital Rules will require the Company and Bank to maintain (i) a minimum ratio of CET1 to risk-weighted assets of at least 4.5%, plus a 2.5% “capital conservation buffer” (which is added to the 4.5% CET1 ratio as that buffer is phased in, effectively resulting in a minimum ratio of CET1 to risk-weighted assets of at least 7% upon full implementation), (ii) a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 6.0%, plus the capital conservation buffer

Table of Contents

(which is added to the 6.0% Tier 1 capital ratio as that buffer is phased in, effectively resulting in a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5% upon full implementation), (iii) a minimum ratio of Total capital (that is, Tier 1 plus Tier 2) to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.0%, plus the capital conservation buffer (which is added to the 8.0% total capital ratio as that buffer is phased in, effectively resulting in a minimum total capital ratio of 10.5% upon full implementation) and (iv) a minimum leverage ratio of 4%, calculated as the ratio of Tier 1 capital to average assets.

The aforementioned capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. Banking institutions with a ratio of CET1 to risk-weighted assets above the minimum but below the conservation buffer (or below the combined capital conservation buffer and countercyclical capital buffer, when the latter is applied) may face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases and discretionary bonuses to executive officers based on the amount of the shortfall.

Under the Basel III Capital Rules, the initial minimum capital ratios as of January 1, 2015 will be as follows:

 

•

4.5% CET1 to risk-weighted assets;

 

•

6.0% Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets; and

 

•

8.0% Total capital to risk-weighted assets.

The Basel III Capital Rules provide for a number of deductions from and adjustments to CET1. These include, for example, the requirement that mortgage servicing rights, deferred tax assets dependent upon future taxable income and significant investments in non-consolidated financial entities be deducted from CET1 to the extent that any one such category exceeds 10% of CET1 or all such categories in the aggregate exceed 15% of CET1. Under current capital standards, the effects of accumulated other comprehensive income items included in capital are excluded for the purposes of determining regulatory capital ratios. Under the Basel III Capital Rules, the effects of certain accumulated other comprehensive items are not excluded; however the Company and Bank, may make a one-time permanent election to continue to exclude these items. The Company and Bank are still evaluating the benefits and limitations of making this election, and have not yet concluded if they will take advantage of the election.

Implementation of the deductions and other adjustments to CET1 will begin on January 1, 2015 and will be phased-in over a 4-year period (beginning at 40% on January 1, 2015 and an additional 20% per year thereafter until fully phased-in at January 1, 2018). The implementation of the capital conservation buffer will begin on January 1, 2016 at the 0.625% level and be phased in over a four-year period (increasing by that amount on each subsequent January 1, until it reaches 2.5% on January 1, 2019).

With respect to the Bank, the Basel III Capital Rules also revise the “prompt corrective action” regulations pursuant to Section 38 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, by (i) introducing a CET1 ratio requirement at each level (other than critically undercapitalized), with the required CET1 ratio being 6.5% for well-capitalized status; (ii) increasing the minimum Tier 1 capital ratio requirement for each category (other than critically undercapitalized), with the minimum Tier 1 capital ratio for well-capitalized status being 8% (as compared to the current 6%), and (iii) eliminating the current provision that provides that a bank with a composite supervisory rating of 1 may have a 3% leverage ratio and still be adequately capitalized. The Basel III Capital Rules do not change the total risk-based capital requirement for any prompt corrective action category.

The Basel III Capital Rules prescribe a standardized approach for risk weightings that expand the risk-weighting categories from the current four categories (0%, 20%, 50% and 100%) to a much larger and more risk-sensitive number of categories, depending on the nature of the assets, generally ranging from 0% for U.S. government and agency securities, to 600% for certain equity exposures, and resulting in higher risk weights for a variety of asset categories. Significant changes to current rules that will impact the Company’s determination of risk-weighted assets include, among other things:

 

•

Applying a 150% risk weight for certain high volatility commercial real estate acquisition, development and construction loans, compared to 100% risk weight currently in place;

 

•

Assigning a 150% risk weight to exposures (other than residential mortgage exposures) that are 90 days past due or in nonaccrual status, compared to 100% risk weight currently in place; and

 

•

Providing for a 20% credit conversion factor for the unused portion of a commitment with an original maturity of one year or less that is not unconditionally cancellable, compared to 0% currently in place.

Management is currently evaluating the impact that the Basel III Capital Rules, on a fully phased-in basis, will have on our capital levels. Management anticipates that it will be in compliance with the phased in rules.

Liquidity

The primary function of asset/liability management is to ensure adequate liquidity and manage the Company’s 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, the sale of mortgage loans 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. Management, through its ALCO process, attempts to manage the level of repricing and maturity mismatch so that fluctuations in net interest income is maintained within policy limits in current and expected market conditions. The Company has consistently followed a strategy of pricing assets and liabilities according to prevailing market rates. Rate spreads will be sacrificed at times in order to enable the sensitivity position to stay within the guidelines called for by asset/liability management policy. Investment and pricing decisions are made using both liquidity and sensitivity analyses as tools. Rate sensitivity is measured by monthly gap analysis, quarterly rate shocks, and periodic simulation.

The schedule that follows reflects the degree to which the Company can adjust its various portfolios to meet interest rate changes. Additionally, the Bank is a Federal Home Loan Bank member, and standard credit arrangements available to Federal Home Loan Bank members provide increased liquidity. The following outlines the Company’s rate sensitivity at June 30, 2014, and cumulative gap positions and ratios.

The following gap summary demonstrates the shift in RSA/RSL (cumulative) position since year end:

 

		Within 6 Months				Within 12 Months				Within 24 Months				Within 36 Months
June 30, 2014			0.64				0.70				0.80				0.85
December 31, 2013 (Revised) **			0.51				0.55				0.60				0.66

 

**

The Company recently revised the methodology for calculating the rate sensitive liabilities. Previously, the Company had included some non-maturity deposits in the over 36 month bucket. With the revision, the Company moved the non-maturity deposits into the less than three month bucket as these deposits have the ability to reprice in that time frame. While they have the ability to reprice within a three month time frame, the Company would expect that some portion of these accounts will reprice with a delay and with a magnitude that is not one for one with interest rate changes.

Management closely monitors the fiscal and monetary policies of our government and acts in anticipation of changes in order to maintain a healthy earning asset interest bearing liabilities balance.

Controls and Procedures

 

(a)	Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of June 30, 2014.
