Note 1.   Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements of FNCB are comprised of the accounts of FNCB Bancorp, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiary, FNCB Bank (the “Bank”), as well as the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, “FNCB”). The accounting and reporting policies of FNCB conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and accompanying notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations for the periods presented have been included in the consolidated financial statements. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Prior period amounts have been reclassified when necessary to conform to the current period’s presentation. Such reclassifications did not have an impact on the operating results or financial position of FNCB. The operating results and financial position of FNCB for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, may not be indicative of future results of operations and financial position.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to change in the near term are the allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”), securities’ valuation and impairment evaluation, the valuation of other real estate owned (“OREO”), and income taxes.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in FNCB’s audited financial statements, included in the Annual Report filed on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Note 2.   New Authoritative Accounting Guidance

Accounting Guidance to be Adopted in Future Periods

ASU 2017-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): “Scope of Modification Accounting” clarifies when it is appropriate to apply modification accounting guidance when there is a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. Specifically, the standard provides that an entity should account for the effects of a modification unless the fair value of the modified award is the same as the original award immediately before modification, if the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before modification, and the classification of the modified award is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before modification. ASU 2017-09 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2018 is not expected to have a material effect on the operating results or financial position of FNCB.

ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Section A, “Summary and Amendments That Create Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and Other Assets and Deferred Costs-Contract with Customers (Subtopic 340-40);” Section B, “Conforming Amendments to Other Topics and Subtopics in the Codification and Status Tables;” and Section C, “Background Information and Basis for Conclusions,” provides a robust framework for addressing revenue recognition issues, and upon its effective date, replaces almost all existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry specific guidance, in current GAAP. On August 12, 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): “Deferral of the Effective Date,” which defers the adoption of ASU 2014-09 for one year for all entities. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is for companies to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which FNCB expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 will also result in enhanced interim and annual disclosures, both qualitative and quantitative, about revenue in order to help financial statement users understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and related cash flows. ASU 2014-09 is effective in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and the interim periods within that year for public business entities, not-for-profit entities that have issued, or are conduit bond obligors for, securities that are traded, listed or quoted on an exchange or over-the-counter market and employee benefit plans that file or furnish financial statements to the SEC. FNCB will adopt this guidance on January 1, 2018. The guidance allows an entity to apply the new standard either retrospectively or through a cumulative effect adjustment as of January 1, 2018. FNCB’s largest revenue stream is net interest income, which is explicitly excluded from the scope of ASU 2014-09. Management is currently evaluating FNCB’s non-interest income revenue streams to determine the impact, if any, this ASU will have on the operating results or financial position of FNCB.

ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842): “Leases” will require organizations that lease assets to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Consistent with current GAAP, the recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by the lessee will primarily depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. However, unlike current GAAP, which requires only capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet, the new ASU will require both types of leases to be recognized on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 will also require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The new disclosures will include both qualitative and quantitative requirements that provide additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. ASU 2016-02 is effective with fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018 for public entities. Accordingly, FNCB will adopt this guidance on January 1, 2019, and is currently evaluating the effect this guidance may have on its operating results or financial position.

ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” replaces the current loss impairment methodology under GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to form credit loss estimates in an effort to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit. Specifically, the amendments in this ASU will require a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The amendments in this update affect entities holding financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income, including such financial assets as loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance-sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. On June 17, 2016, the four federal financial institution regulatory agencies (the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the National Credit Union Administration and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency), issued a joint statement to provide information about ASU 2016-13 and the initial supervisory views regarding the implementation of the new standard. The joint statement applies to all banks, savings associations, credit unions and financial institution holding companies, regardless of asset size. The statement details the key elements of, and the steps necessary for, the successful transition to the new accounting standard. In addition, the statement notifies financial institutions that because the appropriate allowance levels are institution-specific amounts, the agencies will not establish benchmark targets or ranges for the change in institutions’ allowance levels upon adoption of the ASU, or for allowance levels going forward. Due to the importance of ASU 2016-13, the agencies encourage financial institutions to begin planning and preparing for the transition and state that senior management, under the oversight of the board of directors, should work closely with staff in their accounting, lending, credit risk management, internal audit, and information technology functions during the transition period leading up to, and well after, adoption. ASU 2016-13 is effective for public business entities that are U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filers for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. All entities may adopt the amendments in this ASU earlier as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Accordingly, FNCB will adopt this guidance on January 1, 2020. FNCB has created a Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) task group comprised of members of its finance, credit administration, lending, internal audit, loan operations and information systems units. The CECL task group has begun the process of planning and preparing for the transition to the new guidance including, but not limited to: (1) becoming familiar with ASU 2016-13; (2) determining a course of action appropriate to FNCB’s nature, scope and risk of its lending and investing activities; (3) reviewing the existing allowance and credit risk management practices to identify processes that may be leveraged when applying the new guidance; (4) identifying data needs and changes that may be necessary to its core operating system to implement the new accounting guidance; and (5) evaluating the effect this guidance may have on FNCB’s operating results and/or financial position, including assessing any potential impact on its capital.

Refer to Note 2 to FNCB’s consolidated financial statements included in the 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2017 for a discussion of additional accounting guidance applicable to FNCB that will be adopted in future periods.

Note 3.   Securities

The following tables present the amortized cost, gross unrealized gains and losses, and the fair value of FNCB’s securities at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016: 

Except for securities of U.S. government and government-sponsored agencies there were no securities of any individual issuer that exceeded 10.0% of shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2017.

At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, securities with a carrying amount of $272.7 million and $271.3 million, respectively, were pledged as collateral to secure public deposits and for other purposes.

The following table shows the amortized cost and approximate fair value of FNCB’s available-for-sale debt securities at June 30, 2017 by contractual maturity.  Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturity because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Because collateralized mortgage obligations, mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities are not due at a single maturity date, they are not included in the maturity categories in the following maturity summary: 

Gross proceeds from the sale of available-for-sale securities were $53.3 million and $76.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, with gross gains of $736 thousand and $1,014 thousand, respectively realized upon the sales. Gross losses realized upon the sales were $43 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

Gross proceeds from the sale of available-for-sale securities were $26.4 million and $32.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, with gross gains of $857 thousand and $960 thousand, respectively, realized upon the sales. There were no losses realized upon the sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.

The following tables present the number, fair value and gross unrealized losses of available-for-sale securities with unrealized losses at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, aggregated by investment category and length of time the securities have been in an unrealized loss position:  

Management evaluates individual securities in an unrealized loss position quarterly for other than temporary impairment (“OTTI”). As part of its evaluation, management considers, among other things, the length of time a security’s fair value is less than its amortized cost, the severity of decline, any credit deterioration of the issuer, whether or not management intends to sell the security, and whether it is more likely than not that FNCB will be required to sell the security prior to recovery of its amortized cost.

There were 54 securities in an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2017, including 40 obligations of state and political subdivisions, 13 securities issued by a U.S. government or government-sponsored agency, and one equity security. Management performed a review of the fair values of all securities in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2017, and determined that movements in the fair values of the securities were consistent with the change in market interest rates. In addition, as part of its review, management noted that there was no material change in the credit quality of any of the issuers or any other event or circumstance that may cause a significant adverse effect on the fair value of these securities. Moreover, to date, FNCB has received all scheduled principal and interest payments and expects to fully collect all future contractual principal and interest payments on all securities in an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2017. FNCB does not intend to sell the securities, nor is it more likely than not that it will be required to sell the securities, prior to recovery of their amortized cost. Based on the results of its review and considering the attributes of these debt and equity securities, management concluded that the individual unrealized losses were temporary and OTTI did not exist at June 30, 2017. 

Investment in the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Pittsburgh stock has limited marketability and is carried at cost. FNCB’s investment in FHLB of Pittsburgh stock totaled $2.3 million and $3.3 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Management noted no indicators of impairment for the FHLB of Pittsburgh stock at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Note 4.   Loans

The following table summarizes loans receivable, net, by category at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016: 

FNCB has granted loans, letters of credit and lines of credit to certain of its executive officers and directors as well as to certain of their related parties. For more information about related party transactions, refer to Note 7, “Related Party Transactions” to these consolidated financial statements.

FNCB originates one- to four-family mortgage loans for sale in the secondary market. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, one- to four-family mortgages sold on the secondary market were $4.5 million and $6.3 million, respectively. Net gains on the sale of residential mortgage loans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 were $110 thousand and $135 thousand, respectively, and $71 thousand and $139 thousand, respectively, for the comparable periods of 2016. FNCB retains servicing rights on these mortgages. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, there were $617 thousand and $596 thousand in one- to four-family residential mortgage loans held for sale, respectively.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, FNCB sold the guaranteed principal balance of loans that were guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) totaling $578 thousand. Net gains of $56 thousand were realized upon the sales and included in non-interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. FNCB retained the servicing rights on these loans. There were no sales of SBA guaranteed loans during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.

FNCB does not have any lending programs commonly referred to as subprime lending. Subprime lending generally targets borrowers with weakened credit histories typically characterized by payment delinquencies, previous charge-offs, judgments, and bankruptcies, or borrowers with questionable repayment capacity as evidenced by low credit scores or high debt-burden ratios.

There were no material changes to the risk characteristics of FNCB’s loan segments, loan classification and credit grading systems and methodology for determining the adequacy of the ALLL during the six months ended June 30, 2017. Refer to Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to FNCB’s consolidated financial statements included in the 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K for information about the risk characteristics related to FNCB’s loan segments, loan classification and credit grading systems and methodology for determining the adequacy of the ALLL.

Each quarter, management evaluates the ALLL and adjusts the ALLL as appropriate through a provision or credit for loan losses. While management uses the best information available to make evaluations, future adjustments to the ALLL may be necessary if conditions differ substantially from the information used in making the evaluations. In addition, as an integral part of its examination process, bank regulators periodically review the ALLL. These regulators may require FNCB to adjust the ALLL based on their analysis of information available at the time of examination.

The following table summarizes activity in the ALLL by loan category for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016:
