STOCK YARDS BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

(1)                     Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP) for complete financial statements.  The consolidated unaudited financial statements of Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc. (“Bancorp”) and its subsidiary reflect all adjustments (consisting only of adjustments of a normal recurring nature) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of financial condition and results of operations for the interim periods.

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Stock Yards Bank & Trust Company (“Bank”).  Significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. In preparing the unaudited consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of related 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 loan losses, valuation of available-for sale securities, other real estate owned and income tax assets, and estimated liabilities and expense.

 

A description of other significant accounting policies is presented in the notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.  Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior year financial statements to conform to current year classifications.

 

Interim results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Management has identified the accounting policy related to the allowance and provision for loan losses as critical to the understanding of Bancorp’s results of operations and discussed this conclusion with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.  Since the application of this policy requires significant management assumptions and estimates, it could result in materially different amounts to be reported if conditions or underlying circumstances were to change.  Assumptions include many factors such as changes in borrowers’ financial condition which can change quickly or historical loss ratios related to certain loan portfolios which may or may not be indicative of future losses.  In the second quarter of 2015, Bancorp extended the historical period used to capture Bancorp’s historical loss ratios from 12 quarters to 24 quarters.  Management believes the extension of the look-back period is appropriate to capture the impact of a full economic cycle and more accurately represents the current level of risk inherent in the loan portfolio.  To the extent that management’s assumptions prove incorrect, the results from operations could be materially affected by a higher or lower provision for loan losses.  The accounting policy related to the allowance for loan losses is applicable to the commercial banking segment of Bancorp.

 

The allowance for loan losses is management’s estimate of probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. 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.

 

Bancorp’s allowance calculation includes specific allowance allocations to loan portfolio segments at June 30, 2015 for qualitative factors including, among other factors, national and local economic and business conditions, the quality and experience of lending staff and management, changes in lending policies and procedures, changes in volume and severity of past due loans, classified loans and non-performing loans, potential impact of any concentrations of credit, changes in the nature and terms of loans such as growth

rates and utilization rates, changes in the value of underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans, considering Bancorp’s disposition bias, and the effect of other external factors such as the legal and regulatory environment.  Bancorp may also consider other qualitative factors in future periods for additional allowance allocations, including, among other factors, changes in Bancorp’s loan review process.   Bancorp utilizes the sum of all allowance amounts derived as described above as the appropriate level of allowance for loan and lease losses. Changes in the criteria used in this evaluation or the availability of new information could cause the allowance to be increased or decreased in future periods. In addition, bank regulatory agencies, as part of their examination process, may require adjustments to the allowance for loan and lease losses based on their judgments and estimates.

Corporate equity securities consist of common stock in a publicly-traded business development company.

 

There were no securities classified as held to maturity as of June 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014.

 

In the first quarter of 2015, Bancorp sold securities with total fair market value of $5.9 million, generating no gain or loss.  These securities consisted of agency and mortgage-backed securities with small remaining balances and agency securities. In the second quarter of 2014, Bancorp sold securities with total fair market value of $7.7 million, generating a net loss of $9 thousand.  These securities consisted of mortgage-backed securities with small remaining balances, obligations of state and political subdivisions, and agency securities.  These sales were made in the ordinary course of portfolio management. Management has the intent and ability to hold all remaining investment securities available-for-sale for the foreseeable future.

Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because some issuers have the right to call or prepay obligations.  In addition to equity securities, the investment portfolio includes agency mortgage-backed securities, which are guaranteed by agencies such as the FHLMC, FNMA, and GNMA.  These securities differ from traditional debt securities primarily in that they may have uncertain principal payment dates and are priced based on estimated prepayment rates on the underlying collateral.

 

Securities with a carrying value of approximately $258.4 million at June 30, 2015 and $263.1 million at December 31, 2014 were pledged to secure accounts of commercial depositors in cash management accounts, public deposits, and cash balances for certain investment management and trust accounts.

Applicable dates for determining when securities are in an unrealized loss position are June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. As such, it is possible that a security had a market value lower than its amortized cost on other days during the past twelve months, but is not in the “Investments with an Unrealized Loss of less than 12 months” category above.

 

Unrealized losses on Bancorp’s investment securities portfolio have not been recognized as an expense because the securities are of high credit quality, and the decline in fair values is due to changes in the prevailing interest rate environment since the purchase date.  Fair value is expected to recover as securities reach their maturity date and/or the interest rate environment returns to conditions similar to when these securities were purchased. These investments consist of 71 and 80 separate investment positions as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.  Because management does not intend to sell the investments, and it is not likely that Bancorp will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, Bancorp does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2015.

 

FHLB stock and other securities are investments held by Bancorp which are not readily marketable and are carried at cost. This category includes holdings of Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (FHLB) stock which are required for access to FHLB borrowing, and are classified as restricted securities.

Allowance for loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality

The considerations by Bancorp in computing its allowance for loan losses are determined based on the various risk characteristics of each loan segment. Relevant risk characteristics are as follows:

 

·                  Commercial and industrial loans:  Loans in this category are made to businesses. Generally these loans are secured by assets of the business and repayment is expected from the cash flows of the business. A weakened economy, and resultant decreased consumer and/or business spending will have an effect on the credit quality in this loan category.

 

·                  Construction and development, excluding undeveloped land:  Loans in this category primarily include owner-occupied and investment construction loans and commercial development projects.  In most cases, construction loans require only interest to be paid during construction, and then convert to permanent financing in the real estate mortgage segment, requiring principal amortization. Repayment of development loans is derived from sale of lots or units including any pre-sold units. Credit risk is affected by construction delays, cost overruns, market conditions and availability of permanent financing, to the extent such permanent financing is not being provided by Bancorp.

·                  Undeveloped land:  Loans in this category are secured by land initially acquired for development by the borrower, but for which no development has yet taken place.  Credit risk is affected by market conditions and time to sell lots at an adequate price.  Credit risk is also affected by availability of permanent financing, to the extent such permanent financing is not being provided by Bancorp.

 

·                  Real estate mortgage:  Loans in this category are made to and secured by owner-occupied residential real estate, owner-occupied real estate used for business purposes, and income-producing investment properties.  Repayment is dependent on credit quality of the individual borrower.  Underlying properties are generally located in Bancorp’s primary market area. Cash flows of income producing investment properties are adversely impacted by a downturn in the economy as evidenced by increased vacancy rates, which in turn, will have an effect on credit quality.  Overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and housing prices, has an effect on credit quality in this loan category.

 

·                  Consumer:  Loans in this category may be either secured or unsecured and repayment is dependent on credit quality of the individual borrower and, if applicable, sale of collateral securing the loan. Therefore, overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and housing prices, will have a significant effect on credit quality in this loan category.

 

Bancorp has loans that were acquired in a 2013 acquisition, for which there was, at acquisition, evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination and for which it was probable that all contractually required payments would not be collected.  The carrying amount of those loans is included in the balance sheet amounts of loans at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.   Changes in the fair value adjustment for acquired impaired loans are shown in the following table:

Impaired loans include non-accrual loans and accruing loans accounted for as troubled debt restructurings (TDR), which continue to accrue interest. Non-performing loans include the balance of impaired loans plus any loans over 90 days past due and still accruing interest.  Bancorp did not have any loans past due more than 90 days and still accruing interest as of June 30, 2015.  Loans past due more than 90 days and still accruing interest amounted to $329 thousand at December 31, 2014.

 

The following table presents the recorded investment in non-accrual loans as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Loans accounted for as TDR include modifications from original terms such as those due to bankruptcy proceedings, certain modifications of amortization periods or extended suspension of principal payments due to customer financial difficulties.  Loans accounted for as TDR, which have not defaulted, are individually evaluated for impairment and, at June 30, 2015, had a total allowance allocation of $225 thousand, compared to $703 thousand at December 31, 2014.

Table of Contents

 

Consistent with regulatory guidance, Bancorp categorizes loans into credit risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends.  Pass-rated loans include all risk-rated loans other than those classified as special mention, substandard, substandard non-performing and doubtful, which are defined below:

 

·                  Special Mention:  Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention.  These potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of repayment prospects for the loan or of Bancorp’s credit position at some future date.

 

·                  Substandard:  Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the paying capacity of the obligor or of collateral pledged, if any.  Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize repayment of the debt.  They are characterized by the distinct possibility that Bancorp will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

 

·                  Substandard non-performing:  Loans classified as substandard non-performing have all the characteristics of substandard loans and have been placed on non-accrual status or have been accounted for as troubled debt restructurings.

 

·                  Doubtful:  Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or repayment in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable.

(4)                     Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase

 

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase, which represent excess funds from commercial customers as part of a cash management service, totaled $64.4 million and $69.6 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.  Bancorp enters into sales of securities under agreement to repurchase at a specified future date.  At June 30, 2015, all of these financing arrangements had overnight maturities and were secured by government sponsored enterprise obligations and government agency mortgage-backed securities which were owned and under the control of Bancorp.

 

(5)                     Federal Home Loan Bank Advances

 

Bancorp had outstanding borrowings of $38.9 million and $36.8 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, via eleven separate fixed-rate advances.  For two advances totaling $30 million, both of which are non-callable, interest payments are due monthly, with principal due at maturity.  For the remaining advances totaling $8.9 million, principal and interest payments are due monthly based on an amortization schedule.

 

The following is a summary of the contractual maturities and average effective rates of outstanding advances:

Advances from the FHLB are collateralized by certain commercial and residential real estate mortgage loans totaling $588.6 million under a blanket mortgage collateral agreement and FHLB stock.  Bancorp views these borrowings as an effective alternative to higher cost time deposits to fund loan growth.  At June 30, 2015, the amount of available credit from the FHLB totaled $405.7 million.

 

(6)                     Derivative Financial Instruments

 

Occasionally, Bancorp enters into free-standing interest rate swaps for the benefit of its commercial customers who desire to hedge their exposure to changing interest rates.  Bancorp offsets its interest rate exposure on these transactions by entering into offsetting swap agreements with substantially matching terms with approved reputable independent counterparties.  These undesignated derivative instruments are recognized on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value.  Because of matching terms of offsetting contracts and collateral provisions mitigating any non-performance risk, changes in fair value subsequent to initial recognition are expected to have an insignificant effect on earnings.  Exchanges of cash flows related to undesignated interest rate swap agreements for the first six month of 2015 were offsetting and therefore had no net effect on Bancorp’s earnings or cash flows.

 

21



Table of Contents

 

Interest rate swap agreements derive their value from underlying interest rates. These transactions involve both credit and market risk. Notional amounts are amounts on which calculations, payments, and the value of the derivative are based. Notional amounts do not represent direct credit exposures. Direct credit exposure is limited to the net difference between the calculated amounts to be received and paid, if any. Bancorp is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to these agreements. Bancorp mitigates the credit risk of its financial contracts through credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures, and does not expect any counterparties to fail their obligations.

 

At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, Bancorp had outstanding undesignated interest rate swap contracts as follows:

In 2013, Bancorp entered into an interest rate swap to hedge cash flows of a $10 million rolling fixed-rate three-month FHLB borrowing. For purposes of hedging, the rolling fixed rate advances are considered to be a floating rate liability. The interest rate swap involves exchange of Bancorp’s floating rate interest payments for fixed rate swap payments on the underlying principal amount. This swap was designated, and qualified, for cash-flow hedge accounting. The swap began December 6, 2013 and ends December 6, 2016. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedging instruments, the effective portion of gains or losses is reported as a component of other comprehensive income, and is subsequently reclassified into earnings as an adjustment to interest expense in periods in which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The following table details Bancorp’s derivative position designated as a cash flow hedge, and the fair values as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

(7)                     Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

US GAAP requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives not be amortized, but instead be tested for impairment at least annually.  Annual evaluations have resulted in no indication of impairment.  Bancorp currently has goodwill in the amount of $682 thousand from the 1996 acquisition of an Indiana bank.  This goodwill is assigned to the commercial banking segment of Bancorp.

 

In 2013, Bancorp completed the acquisition of THE BANCorp, Inc., parent company of THE BANK — Oldham County, Inc.  As a result, Bancorp recorded a core deposit intangible totaling $2.5 million.  For money market, savings and interest bearing checking accounts, this intangible asset is being amortized using a straight line method over 15 years.  For the remainder of deposits, it is being amortized over a 10-

 

22



Table of Contents

 

year period using an accelerated method which anticipates the life of the underlying deposits to which the intangible is attributable.   At June 30, 2015, the unamortized core deposit intangible was $1.7 million.

 

Mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) are initially recognized at fair value when mortgage loans are sold with servicing retained.  The MSRs are amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income, considering appropriate prepayment assumptions.  MSRs are evaluated quarterly for impairment by comparing carrying value to fair value.  Estimated fair values of MSRs at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were $2.6 million and $3.4 million, respectively.  Total outstanding principal balances of loans serviced for others were $416.8 million and $421.1 million at June 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014, respectively.

 

Changes in the net carrying amount of MSRs for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 are shown in the following table:

(8)                     Defined Benefit Retirement Plan

 

Bancorp sponsors an unfunded, non-qualified, defined benefit retirement plan for three key officers (two current and one retired), and has no plans to increase the number of or benefits to participants.  Benefits vest based on 25 years of service.  The retired officer and one current officer are fully vested, and one current officer will be fully vested in 2017.  Actuarially determined pension costs are expensed and accrued over the service period, and benefits are paid from Bancorp’s assets.  Net periodic benefits costs, which include interest cost and amortization of net losses, totaled $36 thousand and $32 thousand, for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.  For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the net periodic benefit costs totaled $71 thousand and $63 thousand, respectively.

 

(9)                     Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

 

As of June 30, 2015, Bancorp had various commitments outstanding that arose in the normal course of business, including standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit, which are properly not reflected in the consolidated financial statements. In management’s opinion, commitments to extend credit of $548.1 million including standby letters of credit of $11.7 million represent normal banking transactions. Commitments to extend credit were $463.0 million, including letters of credit of $11.0 million, as of December 31, 2014.   Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as collateral is available and there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses. Commitments to extend credit are mainly comprised of commercial lines of credit, construction and home equity credit lines. Since some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Bancorp uses the same credit and collateral policies in making commitments and conditional guarantees as for on-balance sheet instruments. Bancorp evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case by case basis. The amount of collateral obtained is based on

 

23



Table of Contents

 

management’s credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, and real estate. However, should the commitments be drawn upon and should our customers default on their resulting obligation to us, our maximum exposure to credit loss, without consideration of collateral, is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. At June 30, 2015, Bancorp has accrued $202 thousand for inherent risks related to unfunded credit commitments.

 

Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written are conditional commitments issued by Bancorp to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support private commercial transactions. Standby letters of credit generally have maturities of one to two years.

 

Also, as of June 30, 2015, in the normal course of business, there were pending legal actions and proceedings in which claims for damages are asserted. Management, after discussion with legal counsel, believes the ultimate result of these legal actions and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of Bancorp.

 

(10)              Preferred Stock

 

Bancorp has a class of preferred stock (no par value; 1,000,000 shares authorized), the relative rights, preferences and other terms of which or any series within the class will be determined by the Board of Directors prior to any issuance.  None of this stock has been issued to date.

 

(11)              Stock-Based Compensation

 

The fair value of all awards granted, net of estimated forfeitures, is recognized as compensation expense over the respective service period.

 

Bancorp currently has one stock-based compensation plan.  At Bancorp’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on April 22, 2015, shareholders approved the 2015 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan and reserved the shares available from the 2005 plan for future awards under the 2015 plan.  No additional shares were made available. As of June 30, 2015, there were 363,751 shares available for future awards. The 2005 Stock Incentive Plan expired in April 2015; however, options and SARs granted under this plan expire as late as 2025.

 

Options, which have not been granted since 2007, generally had a vesting schedule of 20% per year.  Stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) granted have a vesting schedule of 20% per year.  Options and SARs expire ten years after the grant date unless forfeited due to employment termination.

 

Restricted shares granted to officers vest over five years.  All restricted shares have been granted at a price equal to the market value of common stock at the time of grant.  For all grants prior to 2015, grantees are entitled to dividend payments during the vesting period.  For grants in 2015, forfeitable dividends are deferred until shares are vested.  Fair value of restricted shares is equal to the market value of the shares on the date of grant.

 

Grants of performance stock units (“PSUs”) vest based upon service and a three-year performance period which begins January 1 of the first year of the performance period.  Because grantees are not entitled to dividend payments during the performance period, fair value of these PSUs is estimated based upon fair value of underlying shares on the date of grant, adjusted for non-payment of dividends.

 

Grants of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to directors are time-based and vest 12 months after grant date.  Because grantees are entitled to deferred dividend payments at the end of the vesting period, fair value of the RSUs is estimated based on fair value of underlying shares on the date of grant.

Bancorp expects to record an additional $1.0 million of stock-based compensation expense in 2015 for equity grants outstanding as of June 30, 2015.  As of June 30, 2015, Bancorp has $4.5 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense that is expected to be recorded as compensation expense over the next five years as awards vest.  Bancorp received cash of $1.7 million and $626 thousand from the exercise of options during the first six months of 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

Fair values of Bancorp’s stock options and SARs are estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, a leading formula for calculating the value of stock options and SARs.  This model requires the input of subjective assumptions, changes to which can materially affect the fair value estimate.  Fair value of restricted shares is determined by Bancorp’s closing stock price on the date of grant.  The following assumptions were used in SAR valuations at the grant date in each year:

Dividend yield and expected volatility are based on historical information for Bancorp corresponding to the expected life of options and SARs granted.  Expected volatility is the volatility of the underlying shares for the expected term on a monthly basis.  The risk free interest rate is the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the options. The expected life of SARs is based on actual experience of past like-term SARs and options.  Bancorp evaluates historical exercise and post-vesting termination behavior when determining the expected life.

Financial information for each business segment reflects that which is specifically identifiable or allocated based on an internal allocation method. Income taxes are allocated based on the effective federal income tax rate adjusted for any tax exempt activity.  All tax exempt activity and provision for loan losses have been allocated to the commercial banking segment.  Measurement of performance of business segments is based on the management structure of Bancorp and is not necessarily comparable with similar information for any other financial institution. Information presented is also not necessarily indicative of the segments’ operations if they were independent entities.

US GAAP provides guidance on financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken, or expected to be taken, in tax returns.  As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits, including penalties and interest, was $48 thousand and $42 thousand, respectively.  If recognized, tax benefits would reduce tax expense and accordingly, increase net income.  The amount of unrecognized tax benefits may increase or decrease in the future for various reasons including adding amounts for current year tax positions, expiration of open income tax returns due to statutes of limitation, changes in management’s judgment about the level of uncertainty, status of examination, litigation and legislative activity and addition or elimination of uncertain tax positions.  Federal and state income tax returns are subject to examination for the years after 2011.

(15)              Assets and Liabilities Measured and Reported at Fair Value

 

Bancorp follows the provisions of authoritative guidance for fair value measurements.  This guidance is definitional and disclosure oriented and addresses how companies should approach measuring fair value when required by US GAAP. The guidance also prescribes various disclosures about financial statement categories and amounts which are measured at fair value, if such disclosures are not already specified elsewhere in US GAAP.

 

Authoritative guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between participants at the measurement date.  The guidance also establishes a hierarchy to group assets and liabilities carried at fair value in three levels based upon the markets in which the assets and liabilities trade and the reliability of assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:

 

·                  Level 1:  Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

 

·                  Level 2:  Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

 

·                  Level 3:  Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions would reflect internal estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques could include pricing models, discounted cash flows and other similar techniques.

 

Authoritative guidance requires maximization of use of observable inputs and minimization of use of unobservable inputs in fair value measurements. Where there exists limited or no observable market data, Bancorp derives its own estimates by generally considering characteristics of the asset/liability, the current economic and competitive environment and other factors. For this reason, results cannot be determined with precision and may not be realized on an actual sale or immediate settlement of the asset or liability.

 

Bancorp’s investment securities available-for-sale and interest rate swaps are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.  Other accounts including mortgage servicing rights, impaired loans and other real estate owned may be recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis, generally in the application of lower of cost or market adjustments or write-downs of specific assets.

 

The portfolio of investment securities available-for-sale is comprised of U.S. Treasury and other U.S. government obligations, debt securities of U.S. government-sponsored corporations (including mortgage-backed securities), obligations of state and political subdivisions and corporate equity securities.  U.S. Treasury and corporate equity securities are priced using quoted prices of identical securities in an active market. These measurements are classified as Level 1 in the hierarchy above.  All other securities are priced using standard industry models or matrices with various assumptions such as yield curves, volatility, prepayment speeds, default rates, time value, credit rating and market prices for similar instruments. These assumptions are generally observable in the market place and can be derived from or supported by observable data. These measurements are classified as Level 2 in the hierarchy above.

Table of Contents

 

Interest rate swaps are valued using primarily Level 2 inputs. Fair value measurements generally based on benchmark forward yield curves and other relevant observable market data. For purposes of potential valuation adjustments to derivative positions, Bancorp evaluates the credit risk of its counterparties as well as its own credit risk. To date, Bancorp has not realized any losses due to a counterparty’s inability to perform and the change in value of derivative assets and liabilities attributable to credit risk was not significant during 2015.

Bancorp did not have any financial instruments classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014.

 

MSRs are recorded at fair value upon capitalization, are amortized to correspond with estimated servicing income, and are periodically assessed for impairment based on fair value at the reporting date.  Fair value is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated net servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income. These measurements are classified as Level 3.  At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 there was no valuation allowance for the mortgage servicing rights, as the fair value exceeded the cost.  Accordingly, the MSRs are not included in either table below for June 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014.  See Note 7 for more information regarding MSRs.

 

For impaired loans in the table below, fair value is calculated as the carrying value of only loans with a specific valuation allowance, less the specific allowance.  Fair value of impaired loans was primarily measured based on the value of the collateral securing these loans. Impaired loans are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets including equipment, inventory, and/or accounts receivable. Bancorp determines the value of collateral based on independent appraisals performed by qualified licensed appraisers. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Appraised values are discounted for costs to sell and may be discounted further based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the date of the most recent appraisal, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the customer and the customer’s business. Such discounts by management are subjective and are typically significant unobservable inputs for determining fair value. As of June 30, 2015, total impaired loans with a valuation allowance were $6.7 million, and the specific allowance totaled $3.0 million, resulting in a fair value of $3.7 million, compared to total impaired loans with a valuation allowance of $7.8 million, and the specific allowance allocation totaling $1.4 million,

resulting in a fair value of $6.4 million at December 31, 2014.  Losses represent the change in the specific allowances for the period indicated.

 

Other real estate owned (“OREO”), which is carried at the lower of cost or fair value, is periodically assessed for impairment based on fair value at the reporting date.  Fair value is based on appraisals performed by external parties which use judgments and assumptions that are property-specific and sensitive to changes in the overall economic environment.  Appraisals are sometimes further discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, and/or changes in market conditions from the date of the most recent appraisal, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the customer and the customer’s business. Many of these inputs are not observable and, accordingly, these measurements are classified as Level 3.  For OREO in the table below, the fair value is the carrying value of only parcels of OREO which have a carrying value equal to appraised value. Losses represent write-downs which occurred during the period indicated.  At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the carrying value of all other real estate owned was $4.3 million and $6.0 million, respectively.

In the case of the securities portfolio, Bancorp monitors the valuation technique utilized by pricing agencies to ascertain when transfers between levels have occurred.  The nature of other assets and liabilities measured at fair value is such that transfers in and out of any level are expected to be rare.  For the three months ended June 30, 2015, there were no transfers between Levels 1, 2, or 3.   For Level 3 assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2015, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements are presented below.

For these short-term instruments, carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

 

Federal Home Loan Bank stock and other securities

 

For these securities without readily available market values, carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value as it equals the amount due from FHLB or other issuer at upon redemption.

 

Mortgage loans held for sale

 

Mortgage loans held for sale are initially recorded at the lower of cost or market value. The portfolio is comprised of residential real estate loans and fair value is determined by market quotes for similar loans based on loan type, term, rate, size and the borrower’s credit score.

 

Loans, net

 

US GAAP prescribes the exit price concept for estimating fair value of loans.  Because there is not an active market (exit price) for trading virtually all types of loans in Bancorp’s portfolio, fair value of loans is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities (entrance price).

 

Deposits

 

Fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. Fair value of fixed-rate certificates of deposits is estimated by discounting future cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

 

Federal Home Loan Bank advances

 

Fair value of FHLB advances is estimated by discounting future cash flows using estimates of current market rate for instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities.

 

Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit

 

Fair values of commitments to extend credit are estimated using fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements and creditworthiness of customers. Fair values of standby letters of credit are based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle obligations with counterparties at the reporting date.  Fair value of commitments to extend credit, letters of credit and lines of credit is not presented since management believes the fair value to be insignificant.

 

Limitations

 

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information and information about financial instruments. Because no market exists for a significant portion of Bancorp’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Therefore, calculated fair value estimates in

many instances cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, may not be realizable in a current sale of the instrument.  Changes in assumptions could significantly affect estimates.

 

(17)              Regulatory Matters

 

Bancorp and the Bank are subject to various capital requirements prescribed by banking regulations and administered by state and federal banking agencies. Under these requirements, Bancorp and the Bank must meet minimum amounts and percentages of Tier 1, common equity Tier 1, and total capital, as defined, to risk weighted assets and Tier 1 capital to average assets. Risk weighted assets are determined by applying certain risk weightings prescribed by the regulations to various categories of assets and off-balance sheet commitments. Capital and risk weighted assets may be further subject to qualitative judgments by regulators as to components, risk weighting and other factors. Failure to meet the capital requirements can result in certain mandatory, and possibly discretionary, corrective actions prescribed by the regulations or determined to be necessary by the regulators, which could materially affect the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

 

In 2013, the Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC approved rules that substantially amend the regulatory risk-based capital rules applicable to Bancorp and Bank. The rules implement the regulatory capital reforms of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision reflected in “Basel III: A Global Regulatory Framework for More Resilient Banks and Banking Systems” (Basel III) and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act. The rules implementing the Basel III regulatory capital reforms became effective for Bancorp and Bank on January 1, 2015, and include new minimum risk-based capital and leverage ratios.  Capital ratios for December 31, 2014 were calculated using the former rules and for June 30, 2015 ratios were calculated using the new Basel III rules.  For Bancorp, key differences under Basel III include risk weighting for commitments under one year and higher risk weighting for certain commercial real estate and construction loans.  These differences resulted in higher risk-weighted assets, and therefore, somewhat lower risk-based capital ratios.

 

Bancorp and the Bank met all capital requirements to which they were subject as of June 30, 2015.

Item 2.            Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

This item discusses the results of operations for Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc. (“Bancorp” or “Company”), and its subsidiary, Stock Yards Bank & Trust Company (“Bank”) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and compares these periods with the same periods of the previous year. Unless otherwise indicated, all references in this discussion to the Bank include Bancorp. In addition, the discussion describes the significant changes in the financial condition of Bancorp and the Bank that have occurred during the first six months of 2015 compared to same periods in the year ended December 31, 2014. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes presented in Part 1, Item 1 of this report.

 

This report contains forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act that involve risks and uncertainties. Although Bancorp believes assumptions underlying forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of these assumptions could be inaccurate. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from results discussed in forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to the following: economic conditions both generally and more specifically in markets in which Bancorp and the Bank operate; competition for Bancorp’s customers from other providers of financial services; government legislation and regulation which change from time to time and over which Bancorp has no control; changes in interest rates; material unforeseen changes in liquidity, results of operations, or financial condition of Bancorp’s customers; and other risks detailed in Bancorp’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the control of Bancorp.

 

Overview of 2015 through June 30

 

Bancorp completed the first six months of 2015 with net income of $18.3 million or 13% more than the comparable period of 2014.   The increase is due to higher net interest income, no provision for loan losses, and higher non-interest income.  These increases were partially offset by higher non-interest expenses and higher income tax expense. Diluted earnings per share for the first six months of 2015 were $1.23, compared to the first six months of 2014 at $1.10.

 

As is the case with most banks, the primary source of Bancorp’s revenue is net interest income and fees from various financial services provided to customers.  Net interest income is the difference between interest income earned on loans, investment securities and other interest earning assets less interest expense on deposit accounts and other interest bearing liabilities.  Loan volume and interest rates earned on those loans are critical to overall profitability. Similarly, deposit volume is crucial to funding loans and rates paid on deposits directly impact profitability.  Business volumes are influenced by competition, new business acquisition efforts and economic factors including market interest rates, business spending, consumer confidence and competitive conditions within the marketplace.

 

Net interest income increased $2.5 million, or 6.2%, for the first six months of 2015, compared to the same period in 2014.  The positive effects of increased volumes on earning assets and lower costs on time deposits were partially offset by the negative effect of declining interest rates earned.  Net interest margin declined to 3.73% for the first six months of 2015, compared to 3.77% for the same period of 2014.

 

In response to assessment of risk in the loan portfolio, Bancorp did not record a provision for loan losses in the first six months of 2015, compared to a $1.7 million provision in the first six months of 2014.  The provision for loan losses represents a charge to earnings necessary to establish an allowance for loan losses that, in management’s evaluation, is adequate to provide coverage for the inherent losses on outstanding loans.

 

Total non-interest income in the first six months of 2015 increased $360 thousand, or 1.8%, compared to the same period in 2014, and remained consistent at 31% of total revenues. Increases in mortgage banking income

and bankcard transaction revenue contributed to the growth, partially offset by decreases in investment management and trust revenue and service charges on deposit accounts.

 

Total non-interest expense in the first six months of 2015 increased $1.4 million, or 4.0%, compared to the same period in 2014, due to increases in salaries and benefits, write-downs on foreclosed assets and other non-interest expenses. These were partially offset by decreases in net occupancy, FDIC insurance and data processing expenses.  Bancorp’s efficiency ratio in the first six months of 2015 was 57.5% compared with 57.9% in the same period in 2014.

 

Bancorp’s effective tax rate increased to 31.5% for the first six months of 2015 from 30.9% for the same period in 2014.  The increase in the effective tax rate from 2014 to 2015 is the result of proportionally lower nontaxable income from the increase in cash value of life insurance and municipal securities. This was partially offset by the effect of reclassifying amortization of tax credit investments to other non-interest expense in 2015.

 

Tangible common equity (TCE), a non-GAAP measure, is a measure of a company’s capital which is useful in evaluating the quality and adequacy of capital. The ratio of tangible common equity to total tangible assets was 10.89% as of June 30, 2015, compared to 10.05% at December 31, 2014.  See the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section for details on reconcilement to US GAAP measures.

 

The following sections provide more details on subjects presented in this overview.

 

a)             Results Of Operations

 

Net income of $9.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased $1.0 million, or 12.0%, from $8.0 million for the comparable 2014 period.  Basic net income per share was $0.61 for the second quarter of 2015, an increase of 10.9% from the $0.55 for the second quarter of 2014.  Net income per share on a diluted basis was $0.60 for the second quarter of 2015, an increase of 9.1% from the $0.55 for the same period in 2014.

 

Reflecting increased net income, annualized return on average assets and annualized return on average stockholders’ equity were 1.45% and 13.30%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2015, compared to 1.37% and 13.35%, respectively, for the same period in 2014.

 

Net income of $18.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 increased $2.0 million, or 12.6%, from $16.2 million for the comparable 2014 period.  Basic net income per share was $1.24 for the first six months of 2015, an increase of 10.7% from the $1.12 for the first six months of 2014.  Net income per share on a diluted basis was $1.23 for the first six months of 2015, an increase of 11.8% from the $1.10 for the first six months of 2014.

 

Reflecting increased net income, annualized return on average assets and annualized return on average stockholders’ equity were 1.47% and 13.73%, respectively, for the first six months of 2015, compared to 1.39% and 13.74%, respectively, for the same period in 2014.

 

Net Interest Income

 

The following tables present the average balance sheets for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 along with the related calculation of tax-equivalent net interest income, net interest margin and net interest spread for the related periods.  See the notes following the tables for further explanation.

Notes to the average balance and interest rate tables:

 

·                  Net interest income, the most significant component of the Bank’s earnings is total interest income less total interest expense. The level of net interest income is determined by mix and volume of interest earning assets, interest bearing deposits and borrowed funds, and changes in interest rates.

 

·                  Net interest spread is the difference between the taxable equivalent rate earned on interest earning assets less the rate expensed on interest bearing liabilities.

 

·                  Net interest margin represents net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis as a percentage of average interest earning assets.  Net interest margin is affected by both interest rate spread and the level of non-interest bearing sources of funds, primarily consisting of demand deposits and stockholders’ equity.

 

·                  Interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis includes the additional amount of interest income that would have been earned if investments in certain tax-exempt interest earning assets had been made in assets subject to federal taxes yielding the same after-tax income.  Interest income on municipal securities and loans have been calculated on a fully tax equivalent basis using a federal income tax rate of 35%.  Approximate tax equivalent adjustments to interest income were $234 thousand and $245 thousand, respectively, for the three month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 and $469 thousand and $494 thousand, respectively, for the six month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.

 

·                  Average balances for loans include the principal balance of non-accrual loans and exclude participation loans accounted for as secured borrowings.  These participation loans averaged $7.9 million and $9.2 million, respectively, for the three month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 and $8.0 million and $9.3 million, respectively, for the six month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.

 

Fully taxable equivalent net interest income of $22.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 increased $1.1 million, or 5.4%, from $20.9 million when compared to the same period last year. Net interest spread and net interest margin were 3.66% and 3.75%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2015 and 3.69% and 3.77%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2014.

 

Fully taxable equivalent net interest income of $43.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 increased $2.5 million, or 6.1%, from $41.4 million when compared to the same period last year. Net interest spread and net interest margin were 3.65% and 3.73%, respectively, for the first six months of 2015 and 3.69% and 3.77%, respectively, for the first six months of 2014.

 

Approximately $668 million, or 35%, of Bancorp’s loans are variable rate; most of these loans are indexed to the prime rate and may reprice as that rate changes.  However, approximately $312 million, or 16% of total loans have reached their contractual floor of 4% or higher.  Approximately $179 million of variable rate loans have contractual floors below 4%.  The remaining $177 million of variable rate loans have no contractual floor. Bancorp attempts to establish floors whenever possible upon acquisition of new customers.  Bancorp’s variable rate loans are primarily comprised of commercial lines of credit and real estate loans.  At inception, most of Bancorp’s fixed rate loans are priced in relation to the five year Treasury bond.

 

Average earning assets increased $156.4 million or 7.1%, to $2.37 billion for the first six months of 2015 compared to 2014, reflecting growth in the loan portfolio and investment securities.  Average interest

bearing liabilities increased $30.4 million, or 1.8%, to $1.69 billion for the first six months of 2015 compared to 2014 primarily due to increases in interest bearing demand, savings and money market deposits, FHLB advances and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, partially offset by decreases in time deposits and federal funds purchased.

 

Asset/Liability Management and Interest Rate Risk

 

Managing interest rate risk is fundamental for the financial services industry. The primary objective of interest rate risk management is to neutralize effects of interest rate changes on net income. By considering both on and off-balance sheet financial instruments, management evaluates interest rate sensitivity while attempting to optimize net interest income within the constraints of prudent capital adequacy, liquidity needs, market opportunities and customer requirements.

 

Interest Rate Simulation Sensitivity Analysis

 

Bancorp uses an earnings simulation model to estimate and evaluate the impact of an immediate change in interest rates on earnings in a one year forecast. The simulation model is designed to reflect the dynamics of interest earning assets, interest bearing liabilities and off-balance sheet financial instruments. By estimating the effects of interest rate increases and decreases, the model can reveal approximate interest rate risk exposure. The simulation model is used by management to gauge approximate results given a specific change in interest rates at a given point in time.  The model is therefore a tool to indicate earnings trends in given interest rate scenarios and does not indicate actual expected results.

 

Bancorp assumes certain correlation rates, often referred to as a deposit “beta” of interest-bearing deposits, wherein the rates paid to customers change at a different pace when compared to changes in benchmark interest rates. Generally, certificates of deposit are assumed to have a high correlation rate, while interest-bearing checking accounts are assumed to have a lower correlation rate. Actual results may differ due to factors including competitive pricing and money supply; however, Bancorp uses its historical experience as well as industry data to inform its assumptions.

 

The June 30, 2015 simulation analysis, which shows little interest rate sensitivity, indicates that an increase in interest rates of 100 to 200 basis points would have a negative effect on net interest income, and a decrease of 100 basis points in interest rates would also have a negative impact. These estimates are summarized below.

Management expects that net interest margin will remain under pressure over the balance of the year, and any near-term increases in prevailing interest rates will not immediately benefit the Company.  Instead, because approximately 65% of its loan portfolio has fixed rates and 16% of its loan portfolio is priced at variable rates with floors of 4% or higher, a rise in rates would have a short-term negative impact on net interest income since rates would have to increase more than 75 bps before the rates on such loans will rise to compensate for higher interest costs.  The extent of margin compression also will be affected by the need to respond to competitive pressures on funding sources.

The scenario of rates decreasing 200 bp is not reasonably possible given current low rates for short-term instruments and most deposits.

 

Undesignated derivative instruments described in Note 6 are recognized on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value, with changes in fair value, due to changes in prevailing interest rates, recorded in other non-interest income. Because of matching terms of offsetting contracts, in addition to collateral provisions which mitigate the impact of non-performance risk, changes in fair value subsequent to initial recognition have a minimal effect on earnings, and are therefore not included in the simulation analysis results above.

 

Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges described in Note 6 are recognized on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value, with changes in fair value, due to changes in prevailing interest rates, recorded net of tax in other comprehensive income.

 

Provision for Loan Losses

 

The provision for loan losses represents a charge to earnings necessary to establish an allowance for loan losses that, in management’s evaluation, is adequate to provide coverage for inherent losses on outstanding loans.  Bancorp did not record a provision for loan losses in the first six months of 2015, compared to a provision of $1.7 million for the same period of 2014.  The allowance for loan losses is calculated after considering credit quality factors, and ultimately relies on an overall internal analysis of risk in the loan portfolio. Based on this analysis, the provision for loan losses is determined and recorded.  The provision reflects an allowance methodology that is driven by risk ratings, historical losses, and qualitative factors.  Levels of non-performing loans continue to decrease, charge-offs remain low and many key indicators of loan quality continue to show improvement.

 

Management utilizes loan grading procedures which result in specific allowance allocations for estimated inherent risk of loss. For all loans graded, but not individually reviewed, a general allowance allocation is computed using factors typically developed over time based on actual loss experience. Specific and general allocations plus consideration of qualitative factors represent management’s best estimate of probable losses contained in the loan portfolio at the evaluation date. Although the allowance for loan losses is comprised of specific and general allocations, the entire allowance is available to absorb any credit losses.  Based on this detailed analysis of credit risk, management considers the allowance for loan losses adequate to cover probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio at June 30, 2015.

Total non-interest income increased $162 thousand, or 1.6%, for the second quarter of 2015 and $360 thousand, or 1.8% for the first six months of 2015, compared to the same periods in 2014.

 

The largest component of non-interest income is investment management and trust revenue. The magnitude of investment management and trust revenue distinguishes Bancorp from other community banks of similar asset size.  Trust assets under management totaled $2.29 billion at June 30, 2015, compared to $2.36 billion at June 30, 2014. Investment management and trust revenue, which constitutes an average of 46% of non-interest income at June 30, 2015, decreased $104 thousand, or 2.2%, in the second quarter of 2015, and $120 thousand, or 1.3% for the first six months, as compared to the same periods in 2014.  Recurring fees, which generally comprise over 95% of the investment management and trust revenue, increased $173 thousand, or 2%, for the first six months of 2015, compared to the same period of 2014.  However, one-time executor and other non-recurring fees decreased $293 thousand for the first six months of 2015, compared to the same period in 2014.  Most recurring fees earned for managing accounts are based on a percentage of market value on a monthly basis. While fees are based on market values, they typically do not fluctuate directly with the overall stock market, as accounts usually contain fixed income and equity asset classes.  Some revenues of the investment management and trust department, most notably executor, insurance, and some employee benefit plan-related fees, are non-recurring in nature and the timing of these revenues corresponds with the related administrative activities.  Management

expects to encounter slower growth of our investment management and trust revenue in 2015 as some revenue that boosted 2014 results is not expected to recur at the same level in 2015.  Still, management believes the investment management and trust department will continue to factor significantly in financial results and provide strategic diversity to revenue streams.

 

Service charges on deposit accounts decreased $24 thousand, or 1.1%, in the second quarter of 2015, and $47 thousand, or 1.1%, for the first six months of 2015, as compared to the same periods in 2014. Service charge income is driven by transaction volume, which can fluctuate throughout the year.  A significant component of service charges is related to fees earned on overdrawn checking accounts.  Management expects this source of revenue to decline slightly in 2015 due to anticipated changes in customer behavior and increased regulatory restrictions.

 

Bankcard transaction revenue increased $37 thousand, or 3.1%, in the second quarter of 2015, and $84 thousand, or 3.7% for the first six months of 2015, compared to the same periods in 2014, and primarily represents income the Bank derives from customers’ use of debit cards.  The increase in 2015 primarily reflects an increase in the volume of transactions, partially offset by a decrease in interchange rates received.  Most of this revenue is interchange income based on rates set by service providers in a competitive market. Beginning in October 2011, this rate was set by the Federal Reserve for banks with over $10 billion in assets.  While this threshold indicates Bancorp will not be directly affected, this change has affected Bancorp and other similarly sized institutions as merchants gravitate to lower cost interchanges. Volume, which is dependent on consumer behavior, is expected to continue to increase slowly.  However, management expects interchange rates to decrease, resulting in income from this source to remain consistent with levels experienced in 2014.

 

Mortgage banking revenue primarily includes gains on sales of mortgage loans. Bancorp’s mortgage banking department originates residential mortgage loans to be sold in the secondary market. Interest rates on the loans sold are locked with the borrower and investor prior to closing the loans, thus Bancorp bears no interest rate risk related to these loans.  The department offers conventional, VA and FHA financing, for purchases and refinances, as well as programs for first-time home buyers. Interest rates on mortgage loans directly impact the volume of business transacted by the mortgage banking division.  Mortgage banking revenue increased $191 thousand, or 26.5%, in the second quarter of 2015, and $431 thousand or 32.9%, for the first six months of 2015, as compared to the same periods in 2014.  Market rates for mortgage loans decreased in the first half of 2015, resulting in increased refinance activity compared to the same period in 2014.  This was coupled with an increase in home purchase activity in the first half of 2015, an indicator of improving consumer confidence.

 

In 2015, Bancorp sold securities with total fair market value of $5.9 million, generating no gain or loss.  These securities consisted of agency and mortgage-backed securities with small remaining balances and agency securities. In 2014, Bancorp sold securities with total fair market value of $7.7 million, generating a net loss of $9 thousand.  These securities consisted of mortgage-backed securities with small remaining balances, obligations of state and political subdivisions, and agency securities.  These sales were made in the ordinary course of portfolio management.

 

Brokerage commissions and fees increased $37 thousand, or 8.0%, in the second quarter of 2015, and decreased $7 thousand or 0.7% for the first six months of 2015, as compared to the same periods in 2014, corresponding to overall brokerage volume.  Brokerage commissions and fees earned consist primarily of stock, bond and mutual fund sales as well as wrap fees on accounts.  Wrap fees are charges for investment programs that bundle together a suite of services, such as brokerage, advisory, research and management, and are based on a percentage of assets. Bancorp deploys its brokers primarily through its branch network

Bank Owned Life Insurance (BOLI) income totaled $226 thousand and $234 thousand for the second quarter of 2015 and 2014, respectively, and totaled $448 thousand and $470 thousand for the first six months of 2015 and 2014, respectively.  BOLI represents the cash surrender value for life insurance policies on certain key employees who have provided consent for Bancorp to be the beneficiary of a portion of such policies.  Any proceeds received under the policies and the related change in cash surrender value are recorded as non-interest income.  This income helps offset the cost of various employee benefits.

 

Other non-interest income increased $24 thousand, or 5.2%, in the second quarter of 2015, and $32 thousand, or 3.7%, in the first six months of 2015, as compared to the same periods in 2014, due to a variety of other factors, none of which are individually significant.

 

Total non-interest expenses increased $1.2 million, or 6.6%, for the second quarter of 2015, and $1.4 million, or 4.0%, for the first six months of 2015, as compared to the same periods in 2014.

 

Salaries and employee benefits increased $659 thousand, or 6.1%, for the second quarter of 2015, and $641 thousand, or 2.9% for the first six months of 2015, as compared to the same periods of 2014, largely due to increased staffing levels, normal increases in salaries, higher health insurance costs and higher stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by decreased bonus accruals.  Increased staffing levels included senior staff with higher per capita salaries in investment management and trust and lending functions. The increase in stock-based compensation is primarily due to the effect of a first quarter 2014 expense adjustment related to performance stock units, which decreased stock-based compensation by $185 thousand in that quarter.  At June 30, 2015, Bancorp had 538 full-time equivalent employees compared to 528 at June 30, 2014.

 

Net occupancy expense decreased $3 thousand, or 0.2%, in the second quarter of 2015, and decreased $90 thousand, or 3.0% in the first six months of 2015, as compared to the same periods of 2014.  The decrease for the first six months of 2015 is largely due to unusually high maintenance costs in 2014 related to the severe winter.

 

Data processing expense increased $38 thousand, or 2.2% in the second quarter of 2015, and decreased $68 thousand, or 2.1% for the first six months of 2015, compared to the same periods of 2014.  The decrease for the first six months of 2015 is largely due to decreases in expenses for bank card processing/reissuance.  This category includes ongoing computer software amortization and maintenance related to investments in new technology needed to maintain and improve the quality of delivery channels and internal resources.

 

Furniture and equipment expense was unchanged for the second quarter of 2015, and decreased $20 thousand, or 3.8% for the first six months of 2015, as compared to the same periods in 2014.  These fluctuations relate to a variety of factors, none of which were individually significant.  Costs of capital asset additions flow through the statement of income over the lives of the assets in the form of depreciation expense.

 

FDIC insurance expense decreased $33 thousand, or 9.4%, for the second quarter of 2015, and $78 thousand or 11.3% for the first six months of 2015, as compared to the same periods in 2014.  The assessment is calculated by the FDIC and adjusted quarterly.  The decline in expense is due primarily to a reduction in the assessment rate, which was driven by improved credit metrics.

 

Loss on other real estate owned (OREO) increased $151 thousand for the second quarter of 2015, as compared to the same period of 2014.  Net losses on OREO totaled $165 thousand for the first six months

of 2015 compared to gains totaling $349 thousand for the same period in 2014.  Bancorp liquidated several properties at prices greater than their carrying values in the first quarter of 2014 resulting in gains.

 

Other non-interest expenses increased $353 thousand or 11.0% in the second quarter of 2015, and $502 thousand or 8.0% for the first six months of 2015, as compared to the same periods in 2014. The increases are largely due to tax credit amortization of $158,000 for the second quarter and $317,000 for the first six months of 2015, that was formerly recorded as income tax expense in 2014.  Also included in 2015 was a $202 thousand expense to establish a reserve for estimated losses on unfunded credit commitments.  This category also includes MSR amortization, legal and professional fees, advertising, printing, mail and telecommunications, none of which had individually significant variances.

 

Income Taxes

 

In the second quarter of 2015, Bancorp recorded income tax expense of $4.2 million, compared to $3.6 million for the same period in 2014.  The effective rate for the three month period was 31.6% in 2015 and 31.1% in 2014.  Bancorp recorded income tax expense of $8.4 million for the first six months of 2015, compared to $7.3 million for the same period in 2014.  The effective rate for the six month period was 31.5% in 2015 and 30.9% in 2014.  The increase in the effective tax rate from 2014 to 2015 is the result of proportionally lower nontaxable income from the increase in cash value of life insurance and municipal securities, due to higher total pre-tax income. This was partially offset by the effect of amortization of tax credit investments which was recorded in other non-interest expense in 2015 and a component of tax expense in 2014.

 

Commitments

 

Bancorp uses a variety of financial instruments in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of its customers.  These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit.  A discussion of Bancorp’s commitments is included in Note 9.

 

Other commitments discussed in Bancorp’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, have not materially changed since that report was filed, relative to qualitative and quantitative disclosures of fixed and determinable contractual obligations.

 

b)             Financial Condition

 

Balance Sheet

 

Total assets decreased $81.2 million, or 3.2%, from $2.56 billion on December 31, 2014 to $2.48 billion on June 30, 2015.  The most significant contributor to the decrease was securities available for sale, which decreased $100.2 million in the first six months of 2015 largely as a result of maturing short-term securities.  Bancorp invests excess funds in short-term investment securities at each quarter end as part of a state tax minimization strategy. These securities, with maturities of 30 days or less, totaled $10 million and $95 million for June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $15.6 million.  Loans increased $30.8 million, while mortgage loans held for sale increased $4.5 million.  Other assets decreased $3.8 million, driven primarily by a $1.7 million decline in other real estate owned and a $755 thousand decrease in deferred tax assets.

 

Loan production for the first six months of 2015 has been very strong, but loan payoffs and diminished line of credit usage have continued to hamper the overall growth of the loan portfolio.  This high level of prepayments reflected not only low prevailing interest rates, but also heightened competitive conditions.

Table of Contents

 

Total liabilities decreased $93.7 million, or 4.1%, from $2.30 billion December 31, 2014 to $2.21 billion on June 30, 2015.   The most significant component of the decrease was deposits, which decreased $51.9 million or 2.4% as seasonal deposits declined in the second quarter of 2015.  Federal funds purchased decreased $34.1 million, or 72.0%, while Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased $2.0 million or 5.5%. Bancorp utilizes short-term lines of credit to manage its overall liquidity position. Securities sold under agreement to repurchase decreased $5.1 million or 7.4%, and other liabilities decreased $4.6 million or 17.3%.

(1)                     Undeveloped land consists of land initially acquired for development by the borrower, but for which no development has yet taken place.

 

Bancorp occasionally enters into loan participation agreements with other banks to diversify credit risk.  For certain sold participation loans, Bancorp has retained effective control of the loans, typically by restricting the participating institutions from pledging or selling their share of the loan without permission from Bancorp.  US GAAP requires the participated portion of these loans to be recorded as secured borrowings.  These participated loans are included in the commercial and industrial and real estate mortgage loan totals above, and a corresponding liability is recorded in other liabilities.  At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the total participated portions of loans of this nature were $7.3 million and $8.1 million, respectively.

c)              Liquidity

 

The role of liquidity management is to ensure funds are available to meet depositors’ withdrawal and borrowers’ credit demands while at the same time maximizing profitability. This is accomplished by balancing changes in demand for funds with changes in the supply of those funds. Liquidity is provided by short-term liquid assets that can be converted to cash, investment securities available-for-sale, various lines of credit available to Bancorp, and the ability to attract funds from external sources, principally deposits.  Management believes it has the ability to increase deposits at any time by offering rates slightly higher than market rate.

 

Bancorp’s most liquid assets are comprised of cash and due from banks, available-for-sale marketable investment securities and federal funds sold.  Federal funds sold totaled $20.9 million at June 30, 2015. These investments normally have overnight maturities and are used for general daily liquidity purposes.

 

51


 


Table of Contents

 

The fair value of the available-for-sale investment portfolio was $412.9 million at June 30, 2015.  The portfolio includes maturities of approximately $26.2 million over the next twelve months, including $10 million of short-term securities which matured in July 2015.  Combined with federal funds sold, these offer substantial resources to meet either new loan demand or reductions in Bancorp’s deposit funding base. Bancorp pledges portions of its investment securities portfolio to secure public fund deposits, cash balances of certain investment management and trust accounts, and securities sold under agreements to repurchase. At June 30, 2015, total investment securities pledged for these purposes comprised 63% of the available-for-sale investment portfolio, leaving $154.5 million of unpledged securities.

 

Bancorp has a large base of core customer deposits, defined as demand, savings, and money market deposit accounts. At June 30, 2015, such deposits totaled $1.79 billion and represented 86% of Bancorp’s total deposits. Because these core deposits are less volatile and are often tied to other products of Bancorp through long lasting relationships they do not put heavy pressure on liquidity.  However, many of Bancorp’s overall deposit balances are historically high.  When market conditions improve, these balances will likely decrease, putting some strain on Bancorp’s liquidity position.  As of June 30, 2015, Bancorp had only $498 thousand or 0.02% of total deposits, in brokered deposits.

 

Other sources of funds available to meet daily needs include the sales of securities under agreements to repurchase. Also, Bancorp is a member of the FHLB of Cincinnati. As a member of the FHLB, Bancorp has access to credit products of the FHLB.  Bancorp views these borrowings as a low cost alternative to other time deposits.  At June 30, 2015, available credit from the FHLB totaled $405.7 million.  Additionally, Bancorp had available federal funds purchased lines with correspondent banks totaling $70 million.

 

Bancorp’s principal source of cash revenues is dividends paid to it as sole shareholder of the Bank.  At June 30, 2015, the Bank may pay up to $46.3 million in dividends to Bancorp without regulatory approval subject to the ongoing capital requirements of the Bank.

 

d)             Capital Resources

 

At June 30, 2015, stockholders’ equity totaled $272.4 million, an increase of $12.5 million since December 31, 2014.  See the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity for further detail of the changes in equity since the end of 2014.  One component of equity is accumulated other comprehensive income which, for Bancorp, consists of net unrealized gains or losses on securities available-for-sale and hedging instruments, as well as a minimum pension liability, each net of taxes. Accumulated other comprehensive income was $1.3 million at June 30, 2015 compared to a $2.1 million at December 31, 2014. The $772 thousand decrease is primarily a reflection of the negative effect of the changing interest rate environment during the first six months of 2015 on the valuation of Bancorp’s portfolio of securities available-for-sale.

(1)         Under the banking agencies risk-based capital guidelines, assets and credit-equivalent amounts of derivatives and off-balance sheet exposures are assigned to broad risk categories.  The aggregate dollar amount in each risk category is multiplied by the associated risk weight of the category.  The resulting weighted values are added together, resulting in the Bancorp’s total risk-weighted assets.  These ratios are computed in relation to average assets.

 

(2)         The rules described herein established common equity tier 1 capital effective January 1, 2015.  The ratio was not prescribed in prior years.  For Bancorp, this is equal to tier 1 capital, and therefore, the ratio is equal to the tier 1 risk-based capital ratio.

 

(3)         Ratio is computed in relation to average assets

 

In 2013, the Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC approved rules that substantially amend the regulatory risk-based capital rules applicable to Bancorp and Bank. The rules implement the regulatory capital reforms of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision reflected in “Basel III: A Global Regulatory Framework for More Resilient Banks and Banking Systems” (Basel III) and changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act.  Rules implementing the Basel III regulatory capital reforms became effective for Bancorp and Bank on January 1, 2015, and include new minimum risk-based capital and leverage ratios.  The new minimum capital level requirements applicable to bank holding companies and banks subject to the rules are:

 

·                  a new common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5%,

·                  a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6% (increased from 4%),

·                  a total risk-based capital ratio of 8% (unchanged from current rules), and

·                  a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4% for all institutions.

 

53



Table of Contents

 

The rules also establish a “capital conservation buffer” of 2.5%, to be phased in over three years, above the new regulatory minimum risk-based capital ratios, and result in the following minimum ratios once the capital conservation buffer is fully phased in:

 

·                  a common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 7.0%,

·                  a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 8.5%, and

·                  a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.5%.

 

The rules allowed banks and their holding companies with less than $250 billion in assets a one-time opportunity to opt-out of a requirement to include unrealized gains and losses in accumulated other comprehensive income in their capital calculation. Bancorp opted out of this requirement.

 

For Bancorp, the key differences under Basel III include risk weighting for commitments under one year and higher risk weighting for certain commercial real estate and construction loans.  These differences resulted in higher risk-weighted assets, and therefore, somewhat lower risk-based capital ratios.  Bancorp estimates the effect of these key differences decreased the Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio 0.30% and the total risk based-capital ratio 0.34%.

 

Management believes that as of June 30, 2015, Bancorp meets the requirements to be considered well-capitalized under the new rules.

 

e)              Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

In addition to capital ratios defined by banking regulators, Bancorp considers various ratios when evaluating capital adequacy, including tangible common equity to tangible assets, and tangible common equity per share, all of which are non-GAAP measures.  Bancorp believes these ratios are important because of their widespread use by investors as means to evaluate capital adequacy, as they reflect the level of capital available to withstand unexpected market conditions.  Because US GAAP does not include capital ratio measures, there are no US GAAP financial measures comparable to these ratios.

f)                Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which outlines a single comprehensive model for use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers, and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance.  The ASU was originally effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  In July 2015, FASB voted to delay the effective date.  The effective date will be annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and the interim periods within that year. Bancorp is still evaluating the potential impact of adoption of ASU 2014-09.

 

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, Interest — Imputation of Interest, which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements.  Under the ASU, an entity presents such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset.  Amortization of the costs is reported as interest expense.  The ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  The adoption of ASU 2015-03 is not expected to have a significant impact on Bancorp’s operations or financial statements.

Item 3.            Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Information required by this item is included in Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

 

Item 4.            Controls and Procedures

 

Bancorp maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that it is able to collect the information it is required to disclose in reports it files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and to record, process, summarize and report this information within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC.  Based on their evaluation of Bancorp’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarterly period covered by this report, the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officers believe that these controls and procedures are effective to ensure that Bancorp is able to collect, process and disclose the information it is required to disclose in reports it files with the SEC within the required time periods.

 

Based on the evaluation of Bancorp’s disclosure controls and procedures by the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officers, there were no significant changes during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 in Bancorp’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Bancorp’s internal control over financial reporting.
