Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements


Note 1.	Basis of Presentation

These are the unaudited consolidated financial statements of First Community Financial Partners, Inc. (the “Company” or “First Community”) and its subsidiaries, including its wholly owned bank subsidiary, First Community Financial Bank (the “Bank”). In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods have been made. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year or for any other period.

These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and industry practice. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. These reclassifications did not result in any changes to previously reported net income or shareholders’ equity.

Emerging Growth Company Critical Accounting Policy Disclosure

The Company qualifies as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”). Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933 for complying with new or revised accounting standards. As an emerging growth company, the Company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

Management anticipates that the Company will no longer be considered an emerging growth company, and thus will no longer be eligible to use this extended transition period, after the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018.

Certain information in footnote disclosure normally included financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and industry practice has been condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The ASU requires a lessee to recognize on the balance sheet assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Consistent with current U.S. GAAP, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. Unlike U.S. GAAP, which requires that only capital leases be recognized on the balance sheet, the ASC requires that both types of leases by recognized on the balance sheet. For public companies, this update will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. Among other items, the ASU, requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. For public companies, this update will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The effect of the adoption of this guidance is being evaluated by the Company.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The ASU requires an organization to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions

and other organizations will now use forwardlooking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. Additionally, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. For the Company, this update will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company has not yet determined the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will have on the consolidated financial statements.


Note 2.	Earnings Per Share

Earnings per common share is computed using the two-class method. Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares determined for the basic earnings per common share computation plus the dilutive effect of stock compensation using the treasury stock method.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the number of shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings

per common share (dollars in thousands, except per share data).



	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2016		2015		2016		2015

Net income	$	2,265	$	2,342	$	4,293	$	3,950

Weighted average shares outstanding for basic earnings per common share	17,182,197		16,970,721		17,154,028		16,870,372
Dilutive effect of stock-based compensation and warrants	368,350		117,381		318,985		139,027
Weighted average shares outstanding for diluted earnings per common share	17,550,547		17,088,102		17,473,013		17,009,399

Basic income per common share	$	0.13	$	0.14	$	0.25	$	0.23
Diluted income per common share	0.13		0.14		0.25		0.23


Note 3.	Securities Available for Sale

All securities are classified as “available for sale” as the Company intends to hold the securities for an indefinite period of time, but not necessarily to maturity. Securities available for sale are reported at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income, net of the related deferred tax effect. Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. The amortized cost and fair value of securities available for sale, with gross unrealized gains and losses, follows (in thousands):



June 30, 2016	Amortized Cost		Gross Unrealized Gains		Gross Unrealized Losses		Fair Value
Residential collateralized mortgage obligations	$	56,808	$	1,600	$	—	$	58,408
Residential mortgage backed securities	27,190		377		—		27,567
State and political subdivisions	88,831		4,711		—		93,542
	$	172,829	$	6,688	$	—	$	179,517
December 31, 2015
Government sponsored enterprises	$	16,284	$	125	$	—	$	16,409
Residential collateralized mortgage obligations	62,701		138		475		62,364
Residential mortgage backed securities	28,494		65		268		28,291
State and political subdivisions	96,480		2,178		118		98,540
	$	203,959	$	2,506	$	861	$	205,604

Securities with a fair value of $83.4 million and $82.2 million were pledged as collateral on public funds, securities sold under agreements to repurchase or for other purposes as required or permitted by law as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

The amortized cost and fair value of debt securities available for sale as of June 30, 2016, by contractual maturity are shown below (in thousands). Maturities may differ from contractual maturities in residential collateralized mortgage obligations and residential mortgage backed securities because the mortgages underlying the securities may be called or repaid without any penalties. Therefore, these securities are segregated in the following maturity summary:



	Amortized		Fair
	Cost		Value
Within 1 year	$	3,659	$	3,683
Over 1 year through 5 years	15,830		16,149
Over 5 years through 10 years	32,732		34,170
Over 10 years	36,610		39,540
Residential collateralized mortgage obligations and mortgage backed securities	83,998		85,975
	$	172,829	$	179,517

Realized gains on the sales of securities were $603,000 and $21,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

There were no securities with unrealized losses at June 30, 2016 and no unrealized losses which management believed were other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2015. Unrealized losses and fair value aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position are summarized as of December 31, 2015 are as follows:



	Less than 12 Months				12 Months or More				Total
December 31, 2015	Fair Value		Unrealized Losses		Fair Value		Unrealized Losses		Fair Value		Unrealized Losses
Residential collateralized mortgage obligations	$	46,373	$	475	$	—	$	—	$	46,373	$	475

As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio, management categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt and comply with various terms of their loan agreements. The Company considers current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends. Generally, all sizable credits receive a financial review no less than annually to monitor and adjust, if necessary, the credit’s risk profile. Credits classified as watch generally receive a review more frequently than annually. For special mention, substandard, and doubtful credit classifications, the frequency of review is increased to no less than quarterly in order to determine potential impact on credit loss estimates.

The Company categorizes loans into the following risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt:

Pass - A pass asset is well protected by the current worth and paying capacity of the borrower (or guarantors, if any) or by the fair value, less cost to acquire and sell, of any underlying collateral in a timely manner. Pass assets also include certain assets considered watch, which are still protected by the worth and paying capacity of the borrower but deserve closer attention and a higher level of credit monitoring.

Special Mention - A special mention asset, or risk rating of 5, has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Company’s credit position at some future date. Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.

Substandard - A substandard asset, or risk rating of 6 or 7, is an asset with a well-defined weakness that jeopardizes repayment, in whole or in part, of the debt. These credits are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged. These assets are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will or has sustained some loss of principal and/or interest if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loans rated a 6 are still on accrual status, while loans rated at 7 are placed on nonaccrual.

Doubtful - An asset that has all the weaknesses, or risk rating of 8, inherent in the substandard classification, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. These credits have a high probability for loss, yet because certain important and reasonably specific pending factors may work toward the strengthening of the asset, its classification of loss is deferred until its more exact status can be determined.

Loss - An asset, or portion thereof, classified as loss, or risk rated 9, is considered uncollectible and of such little value that its continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted. This classification does not necessarily mean that an asset has no recovery or salvage value but that it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset even though a partial recovery may occur in the future. There was no balance to report at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Residential 1-4 family, consumer and other loans are assessed for credit quality based on the contractual aging status of the loan and payment activity. In certain cases, based upon payment performance, the loan being related with another commercial type loan or for other reasons, a loan may be categorized into one of the risk categories noted above. Such assessment is completed at the end of each reporting period.

The following tables present the risk category of loans evaluated by internal asset classification based on the most recent analysis performed and the contractual aging as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 (in thousands):

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are agreements in which the Bank acquires funds by selling securities to another party under a simultaneous agreement to repurchase the same securities at a specified price and date. These agreements represent a demand deposit account product to clients that sweep their balances in excess of an agreed upon target amount into overnight repurchase agreements.

A collateral pledge agreement exists whereby at all times, the Bank must keep on hand, free of all other pledges, liens, and encumbrances, commercial real estate loans, first mortgage loans, and home equity loans with unpaid principal balances aggregating no less than 133% for first mortgage loans and 200% for home equity loans of the outstanding secured advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago (“FHLB”). The Bank had $379.3 million and $338.0 million of loans pledged as collateral for FHLB advances as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. There were $68.0 million and $16.0 million in advances outstanding at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. All FHLB borrowings were repaid on their maturity dates.

On June 29, 2015, the Company entered into a credit agreement with an unaffiliated bank for two credit facilities (secured borrowings). The credit facilities include a $4.0 million revolving line of credit, which had no balance at June 30, 2016 and a term loan with a balance of $10.0 million. The revolving line matures in 2020 and the term loan matures in 2021. The credit facilities have an annual interest rate of 2.69% plus LIBOR, which was 2.69% at June 30, 2016. The credit facilities are collateralized by the stock of the Bank.

The Bank has entered into collateral pledge agreements whereby the Bank pledges commercial, commercial real estate, agricultural and consumer loans to the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago Discount Window which allows the Bank to borrow on a short term basis, typically overnight. The Bank had $146.2 million and $100.1 million of loans pledged as collateral under these agreements as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. There were no borrowings outstanding at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Under U.S. GAAP, a valuation allowance against a net deferred tax asset is required to be recognized if it is more-likely-than-not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The determination of the realizability of the deferred tax asset is highly subjective and dependent upon judgment concerning management’s evaluation of both positive and negative evidence, forecasts of future income, applicable tax planning strategies and assessments of current and future economic and business conditions. As of June 30, 2016, the Company did not have a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets.

The Company had a federal net operating loss carryforward of $4.2 million and $9.3 million at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, which could be used to offset future regular corporate federal income tax. The net operating loss carryforward expires between the December 31, 2031 and December 31, 2033, fiscal tax years. The Company had an Illinois net operating loss carryforward of $5.4 million and $11.1 million at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, that could be used to offset future regular corporate state income tax. This Illinois net operating loss carryforward will expire between the December 31, 2027 and December 31, 2028, fiscal tax years.


Note 8.	Stock Compensation Plans

The Company maintains the First Community Financial Partners, Inc. Amended and Restated 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2008 Equity Incentive Plan”), which assumed and incorporated all outstanding awards under previously adopted Company equity incentive plans. The 2008 Equity Incentive Plan allowed for the granting of awards including stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, stock awards and cash incentive awards. This plan was amended in December 2011 to increase the number of shares authorized for delivery by 1,000,000 shares. As a result, under the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan, 2,430,000 shares of Company common stock were reserved for the granting of awards.

On August 15, 2013, the Company adopted the First Community Financial Partners, Inc. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Equity Incentive Plan”). The 2013 Equity Incentive Plan allowed for the granting of awards including nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, stock awards and cash incentive awards. This plan was amended in December 2014 to increase the number of shares authorized for delivery by 900,000 shares. As a result, under this plan, 1,000,000 shares of Company common stock were reserved for the granting of awards.

On May 19, 2016, the Company adopted the First Community Financial Partners, Inc. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Equity Incentive Plan”). The 2016 Equity Incentive Plan allows for the grant of awards including nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, and cash incentive awards. This plan allows for a maximum of 2,000,000 shares of the Company common stock have been reserved for the granting of awards. The 2016 Equity Incentive Plan replaced the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan and the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, and the Company will not make any new award grants under the prior plans.

The following table summarizes data concerning stock options (aggregate intrinsic value in thousands):

Exercisable at end of period	1,144,904		$	6.89	$	3,157	1,088,004		$	6.99	$	864

The aggregate intrinsic value of a stock option in the table above represents the total pre-tax amount by which the current market value of the underlying stock exceeds the price of the option that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on June 30, 2016. There was $3.2 million and $1.3 million in intrinsic value of the stock options outstanding at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The intrinsic value will change when the market value of the Company’s stock changes. The fair value (present value of the estimated future benefit to the option holder) of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The Company recognized $45,000 and $37,000, respectively, of compensation expense related to the stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. At June 30, 2016, there was $213,000 in compensation expense to be recognized related to outstanding stock options.

Information pertaining to options outstanding at June 30, 2016 is as follows:



Exercise Prices	Number Outstanding	Weighted Average Remaining Life (yrs)	Number Exercisable
$5.00	364,376	3.04	364,376
$5.20	217,500	8.51	72,500

	1,507,404		1,144,904

No options vested during the three or six months ended June 30, 2016.

The Company grants restricted stock units to select officers and directors within the organization under its equity incentive plans, which entitle the holder to receive shares of Company common stock in the future, subject to certain terms, conditions and restrictions. Holders of restricted stock units are also entitled to receive additional units equal in value to any dividends paid with respect to the restricted stock units during the vesting period. Compensation expense for the restricted stock units equals the market price of the related stock at the date of grant and is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

In January 2016, restricted stock units were issued to directors and participants of a long term incentive plan, with certain performance conditions for a minimum of 52,301 shares, and up to a maximum of 131,948 shares. These performance conditions are expected to be met by the end of 2016 and the expense related to these awards will be recognized over the year.

The Company recognized compensation expense of $491,000 and $407,000, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, related to the restricted stock units. Total unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted stock grants was approximately $336,000 as of June 30, 2016.

The following is a summary of nonvested restricted stock units:



	June 30, 2016
	Number of Shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value

Note 9.	Concentrations, Commitments and Contingencies

Concentrations of credit risk: In addition to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk, the Company, to a certain extent, is exposed to varying risks associated with concentrations of credit. Concentrations of credit risk generally exist if a number of borrowers are engaged in similar activities and have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by economic or other conditions.

The Company conducts substantially all of its lending activities in Will, Grundy, DuPage, Cook and Kane counties in Illinois and their surrounding communities. Loans granted to businesses are primarily secured by business assets, investment real

estate, owner-occupied real estate or personal assets of commercial borrowers. Loans to individuals are primarily secured by personal residences or other personal assets. Since the Company’s borrowers and its loan collateral have geographic concentration in its primary market area, the Company could have exposure to declines in the local economy and real estate market. However, management believes that the diversity of its customer base and local economy, its knowledge of the local market, and its proximity to customers limits the risk of exposure to adverse economic conditions.

Credit related financial instruments: The Company is party to credit related financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments. The Company follows the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

A summary of the Company’s commitments is as follows (in thousands):



	June 30, 2016		December 31, 2015
Commitments to extend credit	$	201,323	$	179,517
Standby letters of credit	10,783		10,353
Performance letters of credit	1,174		1,088
	$	213,280	$	190,958

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. Because 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 creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the party.

Standby letters of credit 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 and, generally, have terms of one year or less. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Company holds collateral, which may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment or, income producing properties, supporting those commitments if deemed necessary. In the event the customer does not perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third party, the Company would be required to fund the commitment. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount shown in the summary above. If the commitment were funded, the Company would be entitled to seek recovery from the customer.

Contingencies: In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings. In the opinion of management, any liability resulting from such pending proceedings would not be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.


Note 10.	Capital and Regulatory Matters

The Company and 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 results and condition. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies.

As of June 30, 2016, the Bank was well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. Currently, to be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, common equity tier 1 capital, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following table. Bank regulators can modify capital requirements as part of their examination process.

In July 2013, the U.S. federal banking authorities approved the implementation of the Basel III regulatory capital reforms and issued rules effecting certain changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act (the “Basel III Rules”). The Basel III Rules are applicable to all U.S. banks that are subject to minimum capital requirements, as well as to bank and savings and loan holding companies other than “small bank holding companies” (generally non-public bank holding companies with consolidated assets of less than $1 billion). The Basel III Rules not only increased most of the required minimum regulatory capital ratios, but they introduced a new common equity Tier 1 capital ratio and the concept of a capital conservation buffer. The Basel III Rules also expanded the definition of capital by establishing criteria that instruments must meet to be considered additional Tier 1 capital (Tier 1 capital in addition to common equity) and Tier 2 capital. A number of instruments that generally qualified as Tier 1 capital will not qualify, or their qualifications will change when the Basel III rules are fully implemented. The Basel III Rules also permitted banking organizations with less than $15.0 billion in assets to retain, through a one-time election, the existing treatment for accumulated other comprehensive income, which currently does not affect regulatory capital. The Company made this one time election in the first quarter of 2015. The Basel III Rules have maintained the general structure of the current prompt corrective action framework, while incorporating the increased requirements. The prompt corrective action guidelines were also revised to add the common equity Tier 1 capital ratio. In order to be a “well-capitalized” depository institution under the new regime, a bank and holding company must maintain a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.5% or more; a Tier 1 capital ratio of 8% or more; a total capital ratio of 10% or more; and a leverage ratio of 5% or more. The Company and Bank became subject to the new Basel III Rules on January 1, 2015, with phase-in periods for many of the changes. Management believes, as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject.

Under the Illinois Banking Act, Illinois-chartered banks generally may not pay dividends in excess of their net profits, after first deducting their losses (including any accumulated deficit) and provision for loan losses. The payment of dividends by any bank is affected by the requirement to maintain adequate capital pursuant to applicable capital adequacy guidelines and regulations, and a financial institution generally is prohibited from paying any dividends if, following payment thereof, the institution would be undercapitalized. Moreover, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) prohibits the payment of any dividends by a bank if the FDIC determines such payment would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice.


Note 11.	Fair Value Measurements

ASC Topic 820 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 market participants. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The price in the principal (or most advantageous) market used to measure the fair value of the asset or liability shall not be adjusted for transaction costs. An orderly transaction is a transaction that assumes exposure to the market for a period prior to the measurement date to allow for marketing activities that are usual and customary for transactions involving such assets and liabilities; it is not a forced transaction. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are (i) independent, (ii) knowledgeable, (iii) able to transact and (iv) willing to transact.

ASC Topic 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert expected future amounts, such as cash flows or earnings, to a single present value amount on a discounted basis. The cost approach is based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost). Valuation techniques should be consistently applied. Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. In that regard, ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

In general, fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value. These adjustments may include amounts to reflect counterparty credit quality, the Company’s creditworthiness, among other things, as well as unobservable parameters. Any such valuation adjustments are applied consistently over time. Our valuation methodologies may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. While management believes the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are recognized on the actual date of the event or circumstances that caused the transfer, which generally coincides with the Company’s monthly and/or quarterly valuation process.

Financial Instruments Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Securities Available for Sale: The fair value of the Company’s securities available for sale is determined using Level 2 inputs from independent pricing services. Level 2 inputs consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spread, cash

flows, treasury yield curve, trading levels, credit information and terms, among other factors. Certain state and political subdivision securities are not valued based on observable transactions and are, therefore, classified as Level 3.

Derivatives: The Bank provides clients with interest rate swap transactions and offset the transactions with interest rate swap transactions with another financial institution as a means of providing loan terms agreeable to both parties. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative and classified as Level 2. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including LIBOR rate curves.

The following table summarizes financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value (in thousands):

The significant unobservable inputs used in the Level 3 fair value measurements of the Company’s state and political subdivisions in the table above primarily relate to the discounted cash flows including the bond’s coupon, yield and expected maturity date.

The Company did not have any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy during the six months ended June 30, 2016. The Company’s policy for determining transfers between levels occurs at the end of the reporting period when circumstances in the underlying valuation criteria change and result in transfer between levels.

The following tables present additional information about assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis for which the Company has utilized Level 3 inputs to determine fair value (in thousands):

Financial Instruments Recorded at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These include assets that are measured at the lower of cost or market that were recognized at fair value below cost at the end of the period. Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis are set forth below:



June 30, 2016	Total		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Financial Assets

Impaired loans	9,348		Appraisal of Collateral	Appraisal adjustments Selling costs	10% to 25%
Foreclosed assets	5,487		Appraisal of Collateral	Selling costs	10.00%

Impaired loans: Impaired loans are evaluated and valued at the time the loan is identified as impaired, at the lower of cost or fair value. Fair value is measured based on the value of the collateral securing these loans and is classified at a Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value for an impaired loan is generally determined utilizing appraisals for real estate loans and value guides or consultants for commercial and industrial loans and other loans secured by items such as equipment, inventory, accounts receivable or vehicles. In substantially all instances, a 10% discount is utilized for selling costs which includes broker fees and closing costs. It is our general practice to obtain updated values on impaired loans every twelve to eighteen months. In instances where the appraisal is greater than one year old, an additional discount is considered ranging from 5% to 15%. Any adjustment is based on either comparisons from other recent appraisals obtained by the Company on like properties or using third party resources such as real estate brokers or Reis, Inc., a nationally recognized provider of commercial real estate information including real estate values.

As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, approximately $2.6 million, or 26%, and $3.1 million, or 32%, of impaired loans were evaluated for impairment using appraisals performed within twelve months of these dates, respectively.

Loans Held for Sale: The fair value of loans held for sale is determined using quoted secondary market prices and classified as Level 2.

Foreclosed assets: Foreclosed assets upon initial recognition are measured and reported at fair value through a charge-off to the allowance for loan losses based upon the fair value of the foreclosed asset. Fair values are generally based on third party appraisals of the property resulting in Level 3 classification. The appraised value is discounted by 10% for estimated selling costs which includes broker fees and closing costs and appraisals are obtained annually.

Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet. Fair value is determined under the framework established by Fair Value Measurements, based upon criteria noted above. Certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments are excluded from the disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value at the Company. The methodologies for measuring fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis are discussed above. The methodologies for other financial assets and financial liabilities are discussed below.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value disclosures of its other financial instruments:

Cash and due from banks: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and due from banks and approximate their fair values.

Interest-bearing deposits in banks: The carrying amounts of interest-bearing deposits maturing within one year approximate their fair values.

Nonmarketable equity securities: These securities are either redeemable at par or current redemption values; therefore, market value equals cost.

Loans: For those variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. The fair values for fixed rate and all other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers with similar credit quality.

Deposits: The fair values disclosed for deposits with no defined maturities are equal to their carrying amounts, which represent the amount payable on demand. The carrying amounts for variable-rate certificates of deposit approximate their fair value at the reporting date. Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

Subordinated debt: The fair values of the Company’s subordinated debt are estimated using discounted cash flows based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Other borrowed funds: The carrying amounts of securities sold under repurchase agreements, term notes, revolving lines of credit and mortgage notes payable approximate their fair values.

Accrued interest receivable and payable: The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate their fair values.

Off-balance-sheet instruments: Fair values for the Company’s off-balance-sheet lending commitments (standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit) are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements taking into account the remaining term of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The fair value of these commitments is not material.

The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows as of June 30, 2016 (in thousands):

Note 12.	Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Derivative contracts entered into by the Bank are limited to those that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment. The Bank provides clients with interest rate swap transactions and offsets the transactions with interest rate swap transactions with another financial institution as a means of providing loan terms agreeable to both parties. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were $1.2 million and $1.3 million, respectively, outstanding notional values of swaps where the Bank receives a variable rate of interest and the client receives a fixed rate of interest. This is offset with counterparty contracts where the Bank pays a floating rate of interest and receives a fixed rate of interest. The estimated fair value of interest rate swaps was $88,000 and $95,000 as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and was recorded gross as an asset and a liability. Swaps with clients and third-party financial institutions are carried at fair value with adjustments recorded in other income. The gross amount of the adjustments to the income statement were $7,000 and $22,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, respectively.


Note 13.	Merger Transaction

On March 14, 2016, First Community entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with the Bank, First Mazon Bancorp, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“First Mazon”), and Mazon State Bank, an Illinois state chartered commercial bank and then a wholly-owned subsidiary of First Mazon, pursuant to which Mazon State Bank merged into the Bank, with the Bank surviving the merger (the “Merger”), for cash consideration to First Mazon of $8.5 million. At the time of the closing, on July 1, 2016, Mazon State Bank’s branches became branches of the Bank. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company incurred $436,000 and $536,000, respectively of professional and data processing fees related to the Merger.

Second Quarter 2016 Financial Results

Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 was $2.3 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared with $2.3 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $4.3 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared with $4.0 million, or $0.23 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2015. Earnings in the second quarter of 2016 reflected year-over-year growth in net interest income offset by growth in expenses related to the addition of six commercial bankers and one leasing officer in addition to merger related costs incurred during 2016. The second quarter of 2016 included a provision for loan losses due to our loan growth in the second quarter as compared to a reversal of loan loss provision in the second quarter of 2015. During the second quarter of 2016, the Company incurred $26,000 of professional fees and $410,000 in data processing fees related to the acquisition of Mazon State Bank.

Loans

Total loans increased $100.3 million, or 12.99%, since December 31, 2015. Commercial loans grew $59.4 million, or 33.08%, from December 31, 2015. Commercial real estate loans increased $29.4 million, or 7.70%, since year-end. Residential real estate loans grew $8.0 million, or 5.92%, since year-end. Construction loans were up $8.8 million, or 39.63%, from December 31, 2015. Loan growth was the result of a strong loan origination pipeline along with results produced by the addition of the new six person lending team and one new leasing officer hired during the first quarter of 2016.

Deposits and Other Borrowings

Total deposits increased $30.8 million, or 3.56%, since December 31, 2015. Noninterest bearing demand deposits increased $7.2 million, or 3.67%, since December 31, 2015. Despite our focus on relationship banking and growth in transactional accounts during the six months ended June 30, 2016 there was an increase in time deposits of $13.9 million, or 4.67%, to $311.4 million at June 30, 2016, from $297.5 million at December 31, 2015. The ratio of time deposits to total deposits has increased slightly from to 34.36% at December 31, 2015 to 34.72% at June 30, 2016. Other borrowings increased $46.4 million, or 87.50%, from year-end. We funded our loan growth in the quarter with short term FHLB advances, sales of investment securities, and deposits gathered during the second quarter of 2016 in preparation of the closing for the purchase of Mazon State Bank and use of its deposits for funding during the third quarter 2016. Accordingly, we expect to be less reliant on non-core funding in future periods.

Net Interest Income and Margin

Second quarter 2016 net interest income was up $1.3 million, or 16.81%, from the second quarter of 2015. The Company’s net interest margin was 3.39% for the second quarter of 2016, compared to 3.27% in the second quarter of 2015. The increase in net interest income was due to continued growth in the loan portfolio and increase in noninterest bearing balances as a source of funding.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, net interest income was up $2.4 million, or 16.15%, from the same period in 2015. The Company’s net interest margin was 3.38% for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to 3.23% for the same period in 2015. The increase in net interest margin was due to growth in the loan portfolio and a lower average balance of our subordinated debentures as a result of refinancing of these debentures with lower-cost secured borrowings at the end of the second quarter 2015.

Noninterest Income and Expense

Noninterest income increased $720,000, or 138.20%, from the second quarter of 2015, and $828,000, or 85.54%, for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from the same period in 2015. The increase from 2015 was due to securities gains in the second quarter 2016 of $603,000 as opposed to no securities gains second quarter of 2015, and only $21,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. Securities gains were the result of $25.6 million in securities sold during the second quarter in order to fund loan growth. In addition, service charges on deposits increased $13,000, or 6.70%, from the second quarter of 2015 and $34,000, or 9.02%, from the six months ended June 30, 2015. Mortgage income was down $37,000, or 24.18%, for the second quarter of 2016, and $63,000, or 24.51%, for the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the same periods of 2015, as a result of mortgage sale volumes. Other noninterest income increased by $141,000, or 81.03%, from the second quarter of 2016, $275,000, or 87.86%, for the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015, related primarily to ATM fee income, BOLI income and lease referral income.

Noninterest expense increased $933,000, or 17.95%, from the second quarter of 2015, and $1.7 million, or 16.52%, from the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase was partially in relation to the addition of six commercial banking officers and one leasing officer during the first quarter of 2016. In addition, $26,000 of professional fees and $410,000 in data processing fees were incurred during the second quarter of 2016, in addition to the $100,000 incurred in the first quarter of 2016 related to the acquisition of Mazon State Bank.

Asset Quality

Total nonperforming assets decreased from December 31, 2015 by $2.1 million, or 30.61%, to $4.8 million at June 30, 2016. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.43% at June 30, 2016 compared to 0.67% at December 31, 2015. These decreases in the ratios were primarily the result of the sales of other real estate owned of $3.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. The sales of these properties, in addition to the write down of one other property, resulted in losses on the sales of $31,000.

The Company had net recoveries on loans of $209,000 in the second quarter of 2016, compared to net charge-offs of $609,000 in the second quarter of 2015 and net charge-offs of $197,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016, as compared to $736,000 for the same period in 2015.

The ratios of the Company’s allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans and allowance to total loans were 459.34% and 1.38% at June 30, 2016, respectively.

The Company recorded a provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2016 of $500,000 compared to a reversal of $749,000 for the same period in 2015. The current year provision is the result of the loan growth experienced during the second quarter of 2016.

Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the largest component of our income, and is affected by the interest rate environment and the volume and the composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Our interest-earning assets include loans, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, investment securities, and federal funds sold. Our interest-bearing liabilities include deposits, advances from the FHLB, subordinated debentures, repurchase agreements and other short-term borrowings.

The following tables reflect the components of net interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, and 2015:

Provision for Loan Losses

The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $500,000 and a reversal of $749,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Company had net recoveries of $209,000 and net charge-offs of $609,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. In addition, the Company had net charge-offs of $197,000 and of $736,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Nonperforming loans increased 77.40% from $1.5 million at December 31, 2015 to $2.6 million at June 30, 2016. The increase in nonperforming loans was primarily the result of the downgrade of one loan relationship, offset by paydowns and charge-offs on other nonperforming loans throughout first six months of the year.

Noninterest Income

The following table sets forth the components of noninterest income for the periods indicated:



	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
(Dollars in thousands)	2016		2015		2016		2015
Service charges on deposit accounts	$	207	$	194	$	411	$	377

Other	315		174		588		313
Total noninterest income	$	1,241	$	521	$	1,796	$	968

Noninterest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 increased from the same periods in 2015. Service charges on deposit accounts were up for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 from the same periods in 2015, primarily due to an increase in account analysis fees. There were $603,000 in realized gains on sales of securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, as securities were sold in order to fund loan growth for the second quarter. For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company saw lower mortgage loan sale volumes than the same period in 2015, and in turn, lower mortgage fee income. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 mortgage fee income was down over the same period in 2015 as a result of lower mortgage sale volumes in the first quarter of 2016. There was an increase in other noninterest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, which was primarily due to income on bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”). In the fourth quarter of 2015, an additional $12.0 million in BOLI was purchased.

Noninterest Expense

The following table sets forth the components of noninterest expense for the periods indicated:



	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
(Dollars in thousands)	2016		2015		2016		2015
Salaries and employee benefits	$	3,311	$	2,810	6,567		5,694
Occupancy and equipment expense	429		505		866		997
Data processing	690		237		947		462
Professional fees	375		411		767		792

Total noninterest expense	$	6,132	$	5,199	$	12,068	$	10,357

Salaries and employee benefits were higher for the three and months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the same periods in 2015. This was the result of new hires during 2015 and 2016 primarily in the lending area. Occupancy and equipment expense was down from the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 as we are seeing decreases in depreciation and amortization as a result of a significant number of assets that became fully depreciated in 2015. Professional fees were down slightly for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to the same periods in 2015, due to lower loan related legal payments during 2016 despite additional legal merger related legal fees. Losses on sale and writedowns of foreclosed assets, net, were higher in the current year for the three and six months, as a result of sales in the current year as losses were larger than those on

the dispositions during 2015. The increase in other expenses was in relation to the addition of six commercial banking officers and one leasing officer and the related recruitment expenses during the first quarter of 2016.

Income Taxes

The Company realized income tax expense of $1.9 million and $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Net deferred tax assets were $5.4 million and $9.2 million at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

Allowance for Loan Losses

Management reviews the level of the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis. The methodology used to assess the adequacy of the allowance includes the allocation of specific and general reserves. The specific component relates to loans that are impaired. For such loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the collateral value, discounted cash flows or observable market price of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors. These qualitative factors include local economic trends, concentrations, management experience, and other elements of the Company’s lending operations.

At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the allowance for loan losses was $12.0 million and $11.7 million, respectively. During 2015 and 2016, we have seen a reduction in the allowance to total loan percentage from 1.74% at June 30, 2015, to 1.38% at June 30, 2016. This decrease has been the result of the reduction in nonperforming assets and an improving net charge-off history, which is the starting point for the Company’s allowance for loan losses calculation. In addition, the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans increased from 292.92% at June 30, 2015, to 459.34% at June 30, 2016.

Impaired Loans

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company 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 the 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.

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. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis using the fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent, the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or the loan’s obtainable market price due to financial difficulties of the borrower.

Residential 1-4 family and consumer loans are collectively evaluated for impairment since they are not individually risk rated. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement.

There were approximately $2.6 million of nonperforming loans at June 30, 2016, which were higher than the $1.5 million of nonperforming loans at December 31, 2015.

Impaired loans were $10.4 million and $9.8 million at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Included in impaired loans at June 30, 2016 were $1.6 million in loans with valuation allowances totaling $1.0 million, and $8.8 million in loans without valuation allowances. Included in impaired loans at December 31, 2015 were $1.1 million in loans with valuation allowances totaling $471,000, and $8.7 million in loans without valuation allowances.

The following presents the recorded investment in nonaccrual loans and loans past due over 90 days and still accruing:



	June 30, 2016		December 31, 2015		June 30, 2015
Nonaccrual loans	$	2,622	$	1,411	$	4,185
Accruing loans delinquent 90 days or more	—		67		55
Nonperforming loans	$	2,622	$	1,478	$	4,240
Troubled debt restructurings accruing interest	$	2,198	$	2,738	$	2,780

We define potential problem loans as loans rated substandard which are still accruing interest. We do not necessarily expect to realize losses on all potential problem loans, but we recognize potential problem loans carry a higher probability of default and require additional attention by management. The aggregate principal amounts of potential problem loans as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were approximately $14.1 million and $11.8 million, respectively. Management believes it has established an adequate allowance for probable loan losses, as appropriate under U.S. GAAP and applicable regulatory guidance.

Investment Securities

Investment securities serve to enhance the overall yield on interest earning assets while supporting interest rate sensitivity and liquidity positions, and as collateral on public funds and securities sold under agreements to repurchase. All securities are classified as “available for sale” as the Company intends to hold the securities for an indefinite period of time, but not necessarily to maturity. Securities available for sale are reported at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income, net of the related deferred tax effect. Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities.

The amortized cost and fair value of securities available for sale (in thousands) are as follows:



	June 30, 2016				December 31, 2015
	Amortized Cost		Fair Value		Amortized Cost		Fair Value
Government sponsored enterprises	$	—	$	—	$	16,284	$	16,409
Residential collateralized mortgage obligations	56,808		58,408		62,701		62,364
Residential mortgage backed securities	27,190		27,567		28,494		28,291
State and political subdivisions	88,831		93,542		96,480		98,540
Total securities available for sale	$	172,829	$	179,517	$	203,959	$	205,604

The decrease in available for sale securities in the first six months of 2016 was the result of approximately $30.1 million in securities being sold to fund loan growth in the second quarter of 2016.

Securities with a fair value of $83.4 million and $82.2 million were pledged as collateral on public funds, securities sold under agreements or for other purposes as required or permitted by law, as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Refer to Note 9 of our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of off-balance sheet arrangements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our goal in liquidity management is to satisfy the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers as well as our operating cash needs with cost-effective funding. Our Board of Directors has established an Asset/Liability Policy in order to achieve and maintain earnings performance consistent with long-term goals while maintaining acceptable levels of interest rate risk, a “well-capitalized” balance sheet, and adequate levels of liquidity. This policy designates the Bank’s Asset/Liability Committee (“ALCO”) as the body responsible for meeting these objectives. The ALCO, which includes members of management, reviews liquidity on a periodic basis and approves significant changes in strategies that affect balance sheet or cash flow positions.

Overall deposit levels are monitored on a constant basis as are liquidity policy levels. Primary sources of liquidity include cash and due from banks, short-term investments such as federal funds sold, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and our investment portfolio, which can also be used as collateral on public funds. Alternative sources of funds include unsecured federal funds lines of credit through correspondent banks, brokered deposits, and FHLB advances. The Bank has established contingency plans in the event of extraordinary fluctuations in cash resources.

The following table reflects the average daily outstanding, year-end outstanding, maximum month-end outstanding and weighted average rates paid for each of the categories of short-term borrowings:



	June 30, 2016			December 31, 2015
(Dollars in thousands)
Securities sold under agreements to repurchase:
Balance:
Average daily outstanding	$	21,650		$	30,849
Outstanding at end of period	22,882			25,069
Maximum month-end outstanding	23,572			37,474
Rate:
Weighted average interest rate during the year	0.17		%	0.15		%
Weighted average interest rate at end of the period	0.17		%	0.16		%

FHLB borrowings:
Balance:
Average daily outstanding	$	44,615		$	1,686
Outstanding at end of period	68,000			16,000
Maximum month-end outstanding	68,000			16,000
Rate:
Weighted average interest rate during the year	0.37		%	0.18		%
Weighted average interest rate at end of the period	0.38		%	0.24		%

Provisions of the Illinois banking laws place restrictions upon the amount of dividends that can be paid to the Company by the Bank. The availability of dividends may be further limited because of the need to maintain capital ratios satisfactory to applicable regulatory agencies. As of June 30, 2016, the Bank was permitted to pay dividends due to having retained earnings of $3.4 million. $4.9 million in dividends were paid by the Bank to the Company during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total, common equity, Tier 1 capital and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and Tier 1 capital to average assets, each as defined in the applicable regulations. Management believes, as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, that the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject. See Note 10 to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

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 uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. When establishing the allowance for loan losses, management categorizes loans into risk categories generally based on the nature of the collateral and the basis of repayment.

The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectibility 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. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses, and may require the Company to recognize adjustments to its allowance based on their judgments of information available to them at the time of their examinations.

The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as either doubtful or substandard. For such loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the collateral value, discounted cash flows or observable market price of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers nonclassified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors. These qualitative factors consider local economic trends, concentrations, management experience, and other elements of the Company’s lending operations.

Foreclosed Assets

Assets acquired through loan foreclosure or other proceedings are initially recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. After foreclosure, foreclosed assets are held for sale and are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs of disposal. Any valuation adjustments required at the date of transfer are charged to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequently, unrealized losses and realized gains and losses on sales are included in other noninterest income. Operating results from foreclosed assets are recorded in other noninterest expense.

Income taxes

Deferred taxes are provided using the liability method. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, operating loss and tax credit carryforwards while deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

The Company follows the accounting guidance related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which sets out a consistent framework to determine the appropriate level of tax reserves to maintain for uncertain tax positions. There were no uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred tax assets are recognized 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 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.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk refers to potential losses arising from changes in interest rates. We are exposed to interest rate risk inherent in our lending and deposit taking activities as a financial institution. We offer an extensive variety of financial products to meet the diverse needs of our clients. These products sometimes contribute to interest rate risk for us when product groups do not complement one another. For example, depositors may want short-term deposits while borrower desire long-term loans. Changes in market interest rates may also result in changes in the fair value of our financial instruments, cash flows, and net interest income.

Interest rate risk is comprised of repricing risk, basis risk, yield curve risk and options risk. Repricing risk arises from

differences in the cash flow or repricing between asset and liability portfolios. Basis risk arises when asset and liability

portfolios are related to different market rate indexes, which do not always change by the same amount. Yield curve risk arises

when assets and liability portfolios are related to different maturities on a given yield curve; when the yield curve changes shape, the risk position is altered. Options risk arises from “embedded options” within asset and liability products because some borrowers have the option to prepay their loans when rates fall while some depositors can redeem their certificates of deposit early when rates rise.

We have established an ALCO for the Bank, which is responsible for the Bank's interest rate risk management. We have implemented a sophisticated asset/liability model at the Bank to measure interest rate risk. Interest rate risk measures include earnings simulation, economic value of equity (“EVE”) and gap analysis.

Gap analysis and EVE are static measures that do not incorporate assumptions regarding future business. Gap analysis, while a helpful diagnostic tool, displays cash flows for only a single rate environment. EVE's long-term horizon helps identify changes in optionality and longer-term positions. However, EVE's liquidation perspective does not translate into the earnings-based measures that are the focus of managing and valuing a going concern. Net interest income simulations explicitly measure the exposure to earnings from changes in market rates of interest. Our current financial position is combined with assumptions regarding future business to calculate net interest income under various hypothetical rate scenarios. The Bank's ALCO reviews earnings simulations over the ensuing 12 and 24 months under various interest rate scenarios. Reviewing these various measures provides us with a reasonably comprehensive view of our interest rate risk profile.

The following gap analysis compares the difference between the amount of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities subject to repricing over a period of time. A ratio of more than one indicates a higher level of repricing assets over repricing liabilities for the time period. Conversely, a ratio of less than one indicates a higher level of repricing liabilities over repricing assets for the time period. As indicated in our Gap Analysis table, our one-year cumulative gap ratio at June 30, 2016 was 1.16.

The table below does not include unrealized gains on investment securities of $6.7 million at June 30, 2016, in rate sensitive assets.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

There are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or any of their property is subject, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to their respective businesses.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Other than the risk factors listed below, there have been no material changes in the risk factors applicable to the Company from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors,” in the Company’s 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Please refer to that section of the Company’s Form 10-K for disclosures regarding the risks and uncertainties related to the Company’s business.

The acquisition of Mazon State Bank, and other potential future acquisitions, could be difficult to integrate, divert the attention of key personnel, disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value and adversely affect our financial results.

On March 14, 2016, we entered into the Merger Agreement providing for the acquisition of Mazon State Bank, which closed on July 1, 2016. As part of our business strategy, we may consider acquisitions of other banks or financial institutions or branches, assets or deposits of such organizations. There is no assurance, however, that we will determine to pursue any of these opportunities or that if we determine to pursue them that we will be successful. Acquisitions involve numerous risks, any of which could harm our business, including:


•	difficulties in integrating the operations, technologies, products, existing contracts, accounting processes and personnel of the target company and realizing the anticipated synergies of the combined businesses;


•	difficulties in supporting and transitioning customers of the target company;


•	diversion of financial and management resources from existing operations;


•	the price we pay or other resources that we devote may exceed the value we realize, or the value we could have realized if we had allocated the purchase price or other resources to another opportunity;


•	risks of entering new markets or areas in which we have limited or no experience or are outside our core competencies;


•	potential loss of key employees, customers and strategic alliances from either our current business or the business of the target company;


•	assumption of unanticipated problems or latent liabilities; and


•	inability to generate sufficient revenue to offset acquisition costs.

Future acquisitions may involve the issuance of our equity securities as payment or in connection with financing the business or assets acquired, and as a result, could dilute the ownership interests of existing stockholders. In addition, consummating these transactions could result in the incurrence of additional debt and related interest expense, as well as unforeseen liabilities, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. The failure to successfully evaluate and execute acquisitions or otherwise adequately address the risks associated with acquisitions could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
