FRANKLIN FINANCIAL SERVICES CORPORATION and SUBSIDIARIES

UNAUDITED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 -1. Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Franklin Financial Services Corporation (the Corporation), and its wholly-ownedwholly owned subsidiaries, Farmers and Merchants Trust Company of Chambersburg (the Bank) and Franklin Future Fund Inc. Farmers and Merchants Trust Company of Chambersburg is a commercial bank that has one wholly-ownedwholly owned subsidiary, Franklin Financial Properties Corp. Franklin Financial Properties Corp. holds real estate assets that are leased by the Bank. Franklin Future Fund Inc. is a non-bank investment company. The activities of non-bank entities are not significant to the consolidated totals. All significant intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of March 31, 2019,2020, and for all other periods presented have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Corporation’s 20182019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The consolidated results of operations for the three monththree-month period ended March 31, 20192020 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Management has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and/or disclosure through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued.

The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 20182019 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements.

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in other banks and federal funds sold.  Generally, federal funds are purchased and sold for one-day periods. cash items with original maturities less than 90 days.

Earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period end. A reconciliation of the weighted average shares outstanding used to calculate basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share follows:

Note 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The following accounting pronouncements have recently been adopted or will be adopted in future periods.  For information on accounting pronouncements previously adopted, please refer to the Corporation’s report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2018.

Standard

Description

Effective Date

Effect on the financial statements or other significant matters

ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) and all subsequently issued amendments

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Subtopic 842)."  This ASU requires all lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset, measured at the present value of the future minimum lease payments, at the lease commencement date.  Lessor accounting remains largely unchanged under the new guidance.  FASB subsequently issued various amendments that provided implementation guidance designed to provide entities with relief from the costs of implementing certain aspects of the new standard.  From the lessee's perspective, the new standard requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases.  Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement for lessees. ASU 2016-02 and all subsequent amendments are effective for fiscal years, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2018.  Early adoption of ASU 2016-02 is permitted.

January 1, 2019

The Corporation adopted ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)" and all subsequent amendments on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach, and it did not have a material effect on its consolidated results of operations. Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recognition of a lease liability and a right-of-use asset of $6.2 million without a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings.  The Corporation did not restate any prior period results. The Corporation adopted the package of practical expedients offered in ASU 2016-02 and therefore, existing lease classifications were not reassessed, expired or existing contracts were not reassessed for a lease, and the initial direct costs for any existing leases were not reassessed.  In addition to the package of practical expedients, the Corporation also utilized other practical expedients offered: (1) the hindsight expedient which allows entities to use hindsight to determine the lease term was not adopted, (2) leases, for all underlying asset classes, with a term less than 12 months and no purchase option were excluded, (3) the option to not separate lease and non-lease components and account for them as a single component was adopted for real estate leases, and (4) the option to not apply lease accounting to existing land easements was adopted.  See Note 7 for additional information on the adoption of the new standard.

ASU 2018-13, Disclosure Framework (Topic 820)

This guidance eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements.  Among the changes, entities will no longer be required to disclose the amount of and reason for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, but will be required to disclose the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements.

January 1, 2019

The Corporation adopted the standard on January 1, 2019 and it did not have a material effect on its consolidated results of operations. 

ASU 2018-15, Accounting for Implementation Costs in a Cloud Computing Arrangement (Topic 350)

This ASU required an entity in a cloud computing arrangement (i.e., hosting arrangement) that is a service contract to follow the internal-use software guidance in ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred.  Capitalized implementation costs should be presented in the same line item on the balance sheet as amounts prepaid for the hosted service, if any (generally as an "other asset").  The capitalized costs will be amortized over the term of the hosting arrangement, with the amortization expense being presented in the same income statement line item as the fees paid for the hosted service.  The ASU is effective January 1, 2020 with early adoption permitted.

January 1, 2020

The Corporation adopted the standard on January 1, 2019 and it did not have a material effect on its consolidated results of operations. 

6


ASU 2017-04, Goodwill (Topic 350)

Description

This guidance, among other things, removes step 2 of the goodwill impairment test thus eliminating the need to determine the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of the reporting unit. Upon adoption of this standard, goodwill impairment will be the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. This may result in more or less impairment being recognized than under the current guidance. Early adoption is permitted for any impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017, applied prospectively.

Effective Date

January 1, 2020

Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements

The Corporation early adopted the ASU in the fourth quarter of 2018 with the completion of the 2018 impairment analysis. The Corporation is still evaluatingASU did not have a material effect on the effect of the standard on its consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2018-14, Disclosure Framework (Topic 715): Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans

Description

This ASU makes minor changes to the disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension and/or other postretirement benefit plans. ASU 2018-14 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020; early adoption is permitted.

Effective Date

January 1, 2020

Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements

The Corporation will adoptadopted the provisions of the ASU on January 1, 2020. As the ASU only revisesrevised disclosure requirements, it isdid not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards

ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

Description

This standard requires credit losses on most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments to be measured using an expected credit loss model (referred to as the current expected credit loss (CECL) model). Under this model, entities will estimate credit losses over the entire contractual term of the instrument (considering estimated prepayments, but not expected extensions or modifications unless reasonable expectation of a troubled debt restructuring exists) from the date of initial recognition of that instrument. The ASU replaces the current accounting model for purchased credit impaired loans and debt securities. The allowance for credit losses for purchased financial assets with a more-than insignificant amount of credit deterioration since origination (“PCD assets”), should be determined in a similar manner to other financial assets measured on an amortized cost basis. However, upon initial recognition, the allowance for credit losses is added to the purchase price (“gross up approach”) to determine the initial amortized cost basis. The subsequent accounting for PCD financial assets is the same expected loss model described above.

Effective Date

January 1, 20202023

Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have formed an implementation team led by the Corporation's Risk Management function. The team is reviewing the requirements of the ASU and evaluating methods and models for implementation. The new standard will result in earlier recognition of additions to the allowance for loan losses and possibly a larger allowance for loan loss balance with a corresponding increase in the provision for loan losses in results of operations; however, the Corporation is continuing to evaluate the impact of the pending adoption of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements. A third-party vendor has been selected to assist with the CECL calculations and the implementation process has started. The Corporation expects to be able to run the CECL model in test mode starting in the second quarter of 2019.2020.

ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326):Targeted Transition Relief

Description

This ASU allows entities to irrevocably elect, upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, the fair value option on financial instruments that (1) were previously recorded at amortized cost and (2) are within the scope of ASC 326-20 if the instruments are eligible for the fair value option under ASC 825-10. The fair value option election does not apply to held-to-maturity debt securities. Entities are required to make this election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. ASU 2019-05 has the same effective date as ASU 2016-13. On October 16,2019, FASB approved its August 2019 proposal to grant certain small public companies a delay in the effective date of ASU 2016-13. For the Corporation, the delay makes the ASU effective January 2023. Since the Corporation currently meets the SEC definition of a small reporting company, the delay will be application to the Corporation. Early adoption is permitted.

Effective Date

January 1, 2023

Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements

The Corporation will continue to review the ASU as part of its adoption of ASU 2016-13.

For securities with an unrealized loss, Management applies a systematic methodology in order to perform an assessment of the potential for other-than-temporary impairment. In the case of debt securities, investments considered for other-than-temporary impairment: (1) had a specified maturity or repricing date; (2) were generally expected to be redeemed at par, and (3) were expected to achieve a recovery in market value within a reasonable period of time. In addition, the Bank considers whether it intends to sell these securities or whether it will be forced to sell these securities before the earlier of amortized cost recovery or maturity. The impairment identified on debt securities and subject to assessment at March 31, 2019,2020, was deemed to be temporary and required no further adjustments to the financial statements, unless otherwise noted.

The following table reflects temporary impairment in the AFS portfolio, aggregated by investment category, length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position and the number of securities in each category as of March 31, 20192020 and December 31, 2018:2019:

Equity securitiesSecurities at Fair Value

The Corporation owns one1 equity investment. At March 31, 20192020 and December 31, 2018,2019, this investment was reported at fair value of $377$313 thousand and $374$440 thousand, respectively, with changes in value reported through income.

9


Restricted Stock at Cost

The Bank held $452 thousand of restricted stock at March 31, 2019.  Except for $30 thousand, this investment represents stock in FHLB Pittsburgh. The Bank is required to hold this stock to be a member of FHLB and it is carried at cost of $100 per share. The level of FHLB stock held is determined by FHLB and is comprised of a minimum membership amount plus a variable activity amount. FHLB stock is evaluated for impairment primarily based on an assessment of the ultimate recoverability of its cost. As a government sponsored entity, FHLB has the ability to raise funding through the U.S. Treasury that can be used to support its operations.  There is not a public market for FHLB stock and the benefits of FHLB membership (e.g., liquidity and low cost funding) add value to the stock beyond purely financial measures. Management intends to remain a member of the FHLB and believes that it will be able to fully recover the cost basis of this investment.  

Note 5. Loans

The Bank reports its loan portfolio based on the primary collateral of the loan. It further classifies these loans by the primary purpose, either consumer or commercial. The Bank’s residential real estate loans include long-term loans to individuals and businesses secured by mortgages on the borrower’s real property and include home equity loans. Construction loans are made to finance the purchase of land and the construction of residential and commercial buildings thereon and are secured by mortgages on real estate. Commercial real estate loans include construction, owner and non-owner occupied properties and farm real estate. Commercial loans are made to businesses of various sizes for a variety of purposes including property, plant and equipment, working capital and loans to government municipalities. Commercial lending is concentrated in the Bank’s primary market, but also includes purchased loan participations. Consumer loans are comprised of installment loans and unsecured personal lines of credit.

Each class of loans involves a different kind of risk. However, risk factors such as changes in interest rates, general economic conditions and changes in collateral values are common across all classes. The risk of each loan class is presented below.

Residential Real Estate 1-4 family

The largest risk in residential real estate loans to retail customers is the borrower’s inability to repay the loan due to the loss of the primary source of income. The Bank attempts to mitigate this risk through prudent underwriting standards including employment history, current financial condition and credit history. These loans are generally owner occupied and serve as the borrower’s primary residence. Commercial purpose loans, secured by residential real estate, are usually dependent upon repayment from the rental income or other business purposes. These loans are generally non-owner occupied. In addition to the real estate collateral, these loans may have personal guarantees or UCC filings on other business assets. If a payment default occurs on a 1-4 family residential real estate loan, the collateral serves as a source of repayment, but may be subject to a change in value due to economic conditions.

109


Residential Real Estate Construction

This class includes loans to individuals for construction of a primary residence and tocontractors and developers to improve real estate and construct residential properties. Construction loans to individuals generally bear the same risk as 1-4 family residential loans. Additional risks may include cost overruns, delays in construction or contractor problems.

Loans to contractors and developers are primarily dependent on the sale of improved lots or finished homes for repayment. Risks associated with these loans include the borrower’s character and capacity to complete a development, the effect of economic conditions on the valuation of lots or homes, cost overruns, delays in construction or contractor problems. In addition to real estate collateral, these loans may have personal guarantees or UCC filings on other business assets, depending on the financial strength and experience of the developer. Real estate construction loans are monitored on a regular basis by either an independent third party or the responsible loan officer, depending on the size and complexity of the project. This monitoring process includes at a minimum, the submission of invoices or AIA documents detailing the cost incurred by the borrower, on-site inspections, and an authorizing signature for disbursement of funds.

Commercial Real Estate

Commercial real estate loans may be secured by various types of commercial property including retail space, office buildings, warehouses, hotels and motel, manufacturing facilities and, agricultural land.

Commercial real estate loans present a higher level of risk than residential real estate loans. Repayment of these loans is normally dependent on cash-flow generated by the operation of a business that utilizes the real estate. The successful operation of the business, and therefore repayment ability, may be affected by general economic conditions outside of the control of the operator. On most commercial real estate loans ongoing monitoring of cash flow and other financial performance indictors is completed annually through financial statement analysis. In addition, the value of the collateral may be negatively affected by economic conditions and may be insufficient to repay the loan in the event of default. In the event of foreclosure, commercial real estate may be more difficult to liquidate than residential real estate.

Commercial

Commercial loans are made for various business purposes to finance equipment, inventory, accounts receivables, and operating liquidity. These loans are generally secured by business assets or equipment, non-real estate collateral and/or personal guarantees.

Commercial loans present a higher level of credit risk than other loans because repayment ability is usually dependent on cash-flow from a business operation that can be affected by general economic conditions. On most Commercial loans ongoing monitoring of cash flow and other financial performance indictors at least annually through financial statement analysis. In the event of a default, collateral for these loans may be more difficult to liquidate, and the valuation of the collateral may decline more quickly than loans secured by other types of collateral.

Loans to governmental municipalities are also included in the Commercial class. These loans generally have less risk than C&I loans due to the taxing authority of the municipality and its ability to assess fees on services.

Consumer

These loans are made for a variety of reasons to consumers and include term loans and personal lines-of credit. The loans may be secured or unsecured. Repayment is primarily dependent on the income of the borrower and to a lesser extent the sale of collateral. The underwriting of these loans is based on the consumer’s ability and willingness to repay and is determined by the borrower’s employment history, current financial condition and credit background. Collateral for these loans, if any, usually depreciates quickly and therefore, may not be adequate to repay the loan if it is repossessed. Therefore, the overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and wages, will have an effect on the credit quality in this loan class.

*The performing status is determined by the loan’s compliance with the modified terms.

There were no0 new TDR loans during 20192020 or 2019. Loans that have been modified on a good-faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were classified as current prior to any relief are not TDRs as outlined in the March 22, 2020 Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and 2018.Reporting for Financial Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus. Such short-term modifications (e.g., six months) may include payment deferrals, fee waivers, extension of payment terms or other delays in payment that are insignificant. As of March 31, 2020, the Bank has granted approximately $30 million loan deferrals or modifications (approximately 3% of gross loans).

Note 7. Leases

The Corporation adopted ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” and all subsequent amendments on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method.  The Corporation has elected the option to apply the new standard as of January 1, 2019 without restatement of any prior period results. Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recognition of a lease liability and a right-of-use asset of $6.2 million without a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings.   

The Corporation leases various assets in the course of its operations that are subject to recognition underon the new standard.balance sheet. The Corporation considers all of its leases to be operating leases and it has no finance leases. The leased assets are comprised of equipment;equipment, and buildings and land (collectively real estate). The equipment leases are shorter-term than the real estate leases, and generally have a fixed payment over a defined term without renewal options. Certain equipment leases have purchase options and it was determined the option was not reasonably certain to be exercised. The real estate leases are longer-term and may contain renewal options after the initial term, but none of the real estate leases contain a purchase option. The renewal options on real estate leases were reviewed and if it was determined the option was reasonably certain to be renewed, the option term was considered in the determination of the lease liability. There is only one real estate lease with a variable payment based on an index included in the lease liability. None of the leases contain any restrictive covenants and there are no significant leases that have not yet commenced. The discount rate used to determine the lease liability is based on the Bank’s fully secured borrowing rate from the Federal Home Loan Bank for a term similar to the lease term. Adoption of the new standard did not affect the Corporation’s status as a “well-capitalized” institution.  The Corporation has one real estate lease to a related party with a liability value of $1.8 million.  Operating lease expense is included in net occupancy expense in the consolidated statements of income. See Note 1 for additional information on the adoption

Note 9. PensionDerivatives

The Corporation is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions.  The Corporation principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Corporation manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities. 

The Corporation’s existing credit derivatives result from participations in interest rate swaps provided by external lenders as part of loan participation arrangements, therefore, are not used to manage interest rate risk in the Corporation’s assets or liabilities.  Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from a service the Corporation provides to certain lenders which participate in loans.

The service cost component of pension expense is in the salaries and employee benefits line on the income statement. All other cost components are in the other expense line on the income statement.

Note 10.11. Fair Value Measurements and Fair Values of Financial Instruments

Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Corporation’s financial instruments; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Corporation could have realized in a sales transaction on the dates indicated. The estimated fair value amounts have been measured as of their respective period-ends and have not been re-evaluated or updated for purposes of these financial statements subsequent to those respective dates. As such, the estimated fair values of these financial instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates maybe different than the amounts reported at each year-end. The Corporation uses the exit price notion to measure the fair value of financial instruments.

FASB ASC Topic 820, “Financial Instruments”, requires disclosure of the fair value of financial assets and liabilities, including those financial assets and liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring and

17


nonrecurring basis. The Corporation does not report any nonfinancial assets at fair value. FASB ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC Topic 820 are as follows:

Level 1: Valuation is based on unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market. There may be substantial differences in the assumptions used for securities within the same level. For example, prices for U.S. Agency securities have fewer assumptions and are closer to level 1 valuations than the private label mortgage backed securities that require more assumptions and are closer to level 3 valuations.

Level 3: Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Corporation’s assumptions regarding what market participants would assume when pricing a financial instrument.

An asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following information regarding the fair value of the Corporation’s financial instruments should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Corporation since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Corporation’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Corporation’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of the Corporation’s financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis.

17


Equity Securities: Equity securities are valued using quoted market prices from nationally recognized markets (Level 1). Equity securities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Investment securities: Fair values of investment securities available-for-sale were primarily measured using information from a third-party pricing service. This service provides pricing information by utilizing evaluated pricing models supported with market data information. Standard inputs include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers, and reference data from market research publications. Level 2 investment securities are primarily comprised of debt securities issued by states and municipalities, corporations, mortgage-backed securities issued by government agencies, and government-sponsored enterprises. Fair values were estimated primarily by obtaining quoted prices for similar assets in active markets or through the use of pricing models. Investment securities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Impaired Loans: The fair value of impaired loans with specific allocations of the Corporation'sallowance for loan losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser, less cost to sell. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach (Level 2). If the appraiser makes an adjustment to account for differences between the comparable sales and income data available for similar loans, or if management adjusts the appraised value, then the fair value is considered Level 3. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial instrumentsstatements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Impaired loans are as follows:evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted in accordance with the allowance policy. NaN partial charge-offs on impaired loans were taken in the first quarter of 2020. Impaired loans are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

The Corporation used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair values for financial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.during the year-to-date period.

Other real estate: The fair value of other real estate, upon initial recognition, is estimated using Level 2 inputs within the fair value hierarchy based on observable market data and Level 3 inputs based on customized discounting criteria.  In connection with the measurement and initial recognition of the foregoing assets, the Corporation recognizes charge-offs through the allowance for loan losses.  Subsequent charge-offs are recognized as an expense.

The Corporation did not0t record any liabilities at fair value for which measurement of the fair value was made on a nonrecurring basis at March 31, 2019.2020. For financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, there were no0 transfers of financial assets or liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 during the period ending March 31, 2019.2020.

Note 11.12. Capital Ratios

Capital adequacy is currently defined by regulatory agencies through the use of several minimum required ratios. In July 2013, Federal banking regulators approved the final rules from the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision for the regulation of capital requirements for bank holding companies and U.S banks, generally referred to as “Basel III.” The Basel III standards were effective for the Corporation and the Bank, effective January 1, 2015 (subject to a phase-in period for certain provisions).  Basel III imposes significantly higher capital requirements and more restrictive leverage and liquidity ratios than those previously in place.  The capital ratios to be considered “well capitalized” under Basel III are: (1) Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) of 6.5%, (2) Tier 1 Leverage of 5%, (3) Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital of 8%, and (4) Total Risk-Based Capital of 10%. The CET1 ratio is a new capital ratio under Basel III and the Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 8% has been increased from 6%. The rules also include changes in the risk weights of certain assets to better reflect credit and other risk exposures. In addition, a capital conservation buffer will be phased-in beginning January 1, 2016 at 0.625%,  1.25% for 2017, 1.875% for 2018 andof 2.50% for 2019 and thereafter.  The capital conservation buffer will beis applicable to all of the capital ratios except for the Tier1Tier 1 Leverage ratio. The capital conservation buffer is equal to the lowest value of the three applicable capital ratios less the regulatory minimum for each respective capital measurement. The Bank’s capital conservation buffer at March 31, 20192020 was 6.95%7.78% (total risk-based capital 14.95%15.78% less 8.00%) compared to the 20192020 regulatory buffer of 2.50%. Compliance with the capital conservation buffer is required in order to avoid limitations to certain capital distributions.distributions and is in addition to the minimum required capital requirements. As of March 31, 2019,2020, the Bank was “well capitalized’capitalized”.

In 2019, the Community Bank Leverage Ratio (CBLR) was approved by federal banking agencies as an optional capital measure available to Qualifying Community Banking Organizations (QCBO). If a bank qualifies as a QCBR and maintains a CBLR of 9% or greater, the bank would be considered “well-capitalized” for regulatory capital purposes and exempt from complying with the risk-based capital rule described above. The CBLR rule took effect January 1, 2020 and banks desiring to opt-in can do so through an election in the first quarter 2020 regulatory filing. The Bank meets the criteria of a QCBR but did not opt-in to the CBLR.

The Bank is participating in the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and the Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility (PPPLF) to fund PPP Loans. In accordance with regulatory guidance, PPP loans pledged as collateral for PPPLF, and PPPLF advances, are excluded from leverage capital ratios. PPP loans will also carry a 0% risk-weight for risk-based capital rules.

The consolidated asset limit on small bank holding companies is $3 billion and a company with assets under that limit is not subject to the Basel III requirements. consolidated capital rules but may file reports that include capital amounts and ratios. The Corporation has elected to file those reports.

Note 12.13. Revenue Recognition

The Corporation adopted ASC 606 on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach applied to all contracts initiated on or after the effective date, and for contracts which have remaining obligations as of the effective date. Results for the reporting period beginning January 1, 2018 are presented under ASC 606 while the prior period results continue to be reported under legacy GAAP. Adoption of the standard did not have a material effect on any of the reported periods. The Corporation did not record a cumulative effect adjustment to the beginning retained earnings balance as of January 1, 2018 from the adoption of ASC 606 as it was determined the transition adjustment was immaterial to Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

All of the Corporation’s revenue from contracts with customers within the scope of ASC 606 is recognized in non-interest income as presented in our consolidated statements of income. Revenue generating activities that fall within the scope of ASC 606 are described as follows:

Investment and Trust Service Fees - these represent fees from wealth management (assets under management), fees from the management and settlement of estates and commissions from the sale of investment and insurance products.

·

Asset management fees are generally assessed based on a tiered fee schedule, based on the value of assets under management, and are recognized monthly when the service obligation is completed. Fees recognized were $1.3 million for the first quarters of 2019 and 2018.

·

Fees for estate management services are based on the estimated fair value of the estate. These fees are generally recognized monthly over an 18 month period that Management has determined to represent the average time to fulfill the performance obligations of the contract. Management has the discretion to adjust this time period as needed based upon the nature and complexity of an individual estate. Fees recognized were $70 thousand for the first quarter of 2019, compared to $61 thousand for the first quarter of 2018.

·

Commissions from the sale of investment and insurance products are recognized upon the completion of the transaction.  Fees recognized were $68 thousand for the first quarters of 2019 and 2018.

Asset management fees are generally assessed based on a tiered fee schedule, based on the value of assets under management, and are recognized monthly when the service obligation is completed. Fees recognized were $1.3 million for the first quarter of 2020 and 2019.

Fees for estate management services are based on the estimated fair value of the estate. These fees are generally recognized monthly over an 18-month period that Management has determined to represent the average time to fulfill the performance obligations of the contract. Management has the discretion to adjust this time period as needed based upon the nature and complexity of an individual estate. Fees recognized were $33 thousand for the first quarter of 2020, compared to $70 thousand for the first quarter of 2019.

Commissions from the sale of investment and insurance products are recognized upon the completion of the transaction. Commissions recognized were $74 thousand for the first quarter of 2020 and $68 thousand for 2019.

Loan Service Charges – these represent fees on loans for services or charges that occur after the loan has been booked, for example, late payment fees. These also include fees for mortgages settled for a third partythird-party mortgage company.companies. All of these fees are transactional in nature and are recognized upon completion of the transaction which represents the performance obligation.

Deposit Service Charges and Fees – these represent fees from deposit customers for transaction based, account maintenance, and overdraft services. Transaction based fees include, but are not limited to, stop payment fees and overdraft fees. These fees are recognized at the time of the transaction when the performance obligation has been fulfilled. Account maintenance fees and account analysis fee are earned over the course of a month, representing the period of the performance obligation, and are recognized monthly.

Debit Card Income – this represents interchange fees from cardholder transactions conducted through the card payment network. Cardholders use the debit card to conduct point-of-sale transactions that produce interchange fees. The

21


fees are transaction based and the fee is recognized with the processing of the transaction. These fees are reported net of cardholder rewards.

Other Service Charges and Fees – these are comprised primarily of merchant card fees, credit card fees, ATM surcharges and interchange fees and wire transfer fees. Merchant card fees represent fees the Bank earns from a third party for enrolling a customer in the processor’s program. Credit card fees represent a fee earned by the Bank for a successful referral to a card-issuing company. ATM surcharges and interchange fees are the result of Bank customers conducting ATM transactions that generate fee income and are processed through multiple card networks. All of these fees are transaction based and are recognized at the time of the transaction.

Gains/Losses on the Sale of Other Real Estate – these are recognized when control of the property transfers to the buyer.

Increases in the cash surrender value of life insurance and security transactions are not within the scope of ASC 606.

Contract Balances

A contract asset balance occurs when an entity performs a service for a customer before the customer pays consideration (resulting in a contract receivable) or before payment is due (resulting in a contract asset). A contract liability balance is an entity’s obligation to transfer a service to a customer for which the entity has already received payment (or payment is due) from the customer. The Company’s noninterest revenue streams are largely based on transactional activity, or standard month-end revenue accruals such as asset management fees based on month-end market values. Consideration is often received immediately or shortly after the Company satisfies its performance obligation and

21


revenue is recognized. The Company does not typically enter into longer-term revenue contracts with customers, and therefore, does not experience significant contract balances.

Contract Acquisition Costs

The Corporation expenses all contract acquisition costs as costs are incurred.

In the normal course of business, the Bank is a party to financial instruments that are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements and are commonly referred to as off-balance-sheet instruments. These financial instruments are entered into primarily to meet the financing needs of the Bank’s customers and include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk not recognized in the consolidated balance sheet.

The Corporation’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by other parties to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contract or notional amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as they do for on-balance-sheet instruments.

The Bank had the following outstanding commitments for the periods presented:

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 with the exception of home equity lines and personal lines of credit and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank, is based on Management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral for most commercial commitments varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant, and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties. Collateral for secured consumer commitments consists of liens on residential real estate.

22


Standby letters of credit are instruments issued by the Bank, which guarantee the beneficiary payment by the Bank in the event of default by the Bank’s customer in the nonperformance of an obligation or service. Most standby letters of credit are extended for one-year periods. Generally, the credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Bank holds collateral supporting those commitments for which collateral is deemed necessary primarily in the form of certificates of deposit and liens on real estate. Management believes that the proceeds obtained through a liquidation of such collateral would be sufficient to cover the maximum potential amount of future payments required under the corresponding guarantees. As of June 30, 2018, the Bank established a $2.4 million allowance against letters of credit issued in connection with a commercial borrower that declared bankruptcy inbankruptcy. In the secondfirst quarter of 2018 which remains at2020, the Bank reversed $250 thousand of this reserve as one letter of credit was cancelled. At March 31, 2019.2020 this reserve was $2.1 million. Except for the liability recorded for standby letters of credit, liabilities for credit loss associated with off-balance sheet commitments were not material at March 31, 20192020 and December 31, 2018.2019.

Most of the Bank’s business activity is with customers located within its primary market and does not involve any significant concentrations of credit to any one entity or industry.

Legal Proceedings

The nature of the Corporation’s business generates a certain amount of litigation.

We establish accruals for legal proceedings when information related to the loss contingencies represented by those matters indicates both that a loss is probablyprobable, and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. When we are able to do so, we also determine estimates of possible losses, whether in excess of any accrued liability or where there is no accrued liability.

22


These assessments are based on our analysis of currently available information and are subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions and uncertainties. As new information is obtained, we may change our assessments and, as a result, take or adjust the amounts of our accruals and change our estimates of possible losses or ranges of possible losses. Due to the inherent subjectivity of the assessments and the unpredictability of outcomes of legal proceedings, any amounts that may be accrued or included in estimates of possible losses or ranges of possible losses may not represent the actual loss to the Corporation from any legal proceeding. Our exposure and ultimate losses may be higher, possibly significantly higher, than amounts we may accrue or amounts we may estimate.

In management’s opinion, we do not anticipate, at the present time, that the ultimate aggregate liability, if any, arising out of all litigation to which the Corporation is a party at this time will have a material adverse effect on our financial position. We cannot now determine, however, whether or not any claim asserted against us will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in any future reporting period, which will depend on, amount other things, the amount of loss resulting from the claim and the amount of income otherwise reported for the reporting period. Thus, at March 31, 2019,2020, we are unable to provide an evaluation of the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or an estimate of the amount or range of potential loss with respect to such other matters and, accordingly, have not yet established any specific accrual for such other matters.

No material proceedings are pending or are known to be threatened or contemplated against us by governmental authorities.

Note 15. Risk Factors

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus surfaced in Wuhan, China, and has spread around the world, with resulting business and social disruption. The coronavirus was declared a Pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. The operations and business results of the Corporation could be materially adversely affected. The ability of our customers to make payments on loans could be adversely impacted, resulting in elevated loan losses and an increase in the Corporation’s allowance for loan losses. Additionally, it is reasonably possible future evaluations of the carrying amount of goodwill could result in a conclusion that goodwill is impaired. The extent to which the coronavirus may impact business activity or investment results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the coronavirus and the actions required to contain the coronavirus or treat its impact, among others.

Note 16. Reclassification

Certain prior period amounts may have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Such reclassifications did not affect reported net income.

Results of Operations

Summary

Year-to-Date Summary

ReportedThe Corporation reported net income of $3.2$1.7 million ($.39 per diluted share) for the first quarter of March 31, 2020, compared to $.73 per share in the first quarter of 2019.

Net interest income remained unchanged year over year at $10.3 million. However, the net interest margin fell from 3.86% in 2019 to 3.53% in 2020.

Earning assets for the first quarter averaged $1.2 billion compared to $1.1 billion for the same period in 2019. The average first quarter balance of the loan portfolio declined from $978.5 million to $934.5 million from 2019 to 2020. The average balance of the commercial loan portfolio decreased $44.8 million from the comparable quarter in 2019 due to a decrease in purchased loan participations and slower loan demand that began in the second half of 2019. This decline was more than offset by an increase in the average balance of the investment portfolio of $62.7 million. The yield on earning assets fell by .45% from 4.45% in the first quarter of 2019 to 4.00% in 2020. The decrease in the yield was the primary reason for the decline in interest income. Average interest-bearing deposits increased $55.0 million from the first quarter of 2019 to the first quarter of 2020. The cost of these deposits fell from .75% in 2019 to .61% in 2020. As a result, interest expense on deposits declined $211 thousand helping to stabilize net interest income quarter to quarter.

For the first quarter of 2020, a provision for loan loss expense of $3.0 million was recorded as the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic caused several qualitative factors in the allowance for loan loss calculation to increase from moderate risk to very high risk. With this provision expense, the allowance for loan loss ratio was 1.57%. The provision expense for the same quarter in 2019 was $399 thousand with an allowance ratio of 1.29%. The provision expense for the fourth quarter 2019 was $0 resulting in an allowance for loan loss ratio of 1.28% at December 31, 2019. See the Allowance for Loan Loss discussion for more information.


·

Net interest income increased $636 thousand quarter over quarter due to the growth in interest income from the loan portfolio that outpaced higher interest expense.  

·

The provision for loan losses increased $199 thousand quarter over quarter due primarily to loan growth.  

24


·

Noninterest income increased $17 thousand quarter over quarter primarily from asset management fees in the Bank’s Investment and Trust Services department, foreign ATM fees and fees from the merchant card program.    

·

Noninterest expense increased $764 thousand quarter over quarter primarily from increases in salaries and benefits.

Noninterest income increased $724 thousand over the first quarter of 2019. The factor driving this increase was an $812 thousand gain on a life insurance policy.

Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2020 increased $116 thousand over the same quarter of 2019. There were no significant increases in any expense category year over year.

Total assets were $1.213 billion at March 31, 2019,2020 were $1.262 billion compared $1.269 billion at December 31, 2019.

Short-term interest-bearing deposits in other banks decreased $28.0 million since year-end as cash was put into the investment portfolio which increased $20.6 million.

The loan portfolio increased $1.8 million during the first quarter of 2020 over year-end 2019. The portfolio increased in residential real estate and construction loans but was partially offset by a decline in commercial loans.

Deposits decreased $8.0 million, primarily in interest-bearing checking accounts.

Shareholders’ equity increased $1.5 million due primarily to an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income. Retained earnings increased only $413 thousand due to the lower quarterly earnings. The book value of $3.4the Corporation’s common stock increased from $29.40 to $29.74 per share since year-end. The Corporation suspended activity in its stock repurchase plan on March 19, 2020.

Management believes current asset quality is stable with a nonperforming loan ratio of .40% of total gross loans and the allowance for loan loss ratio has been increased to 1.57% higher than at any time during the great recession. As the Corporation faces the unprecedented circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic, it believes its current balance sheet and capital position will allow it to meet the challenge. As of April 30, 2020, the Bank funded 512 loans for $50.1 million from(5.4% of gross loans as of March 31, 2020) through the 2018 year-end balancePaycheck Protection Program administered by the Small Business Administration which started April 3, 2020. The Bank expects to earn approximately $2.0 million of $1.210 billionprocessing fees recognized over the second and third quarter of 2020.The Bank began processing loans for round two of PPP on April 27, 2020. Liquidity has been strengthened by the Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility and the Bank has no borrowings outstanding. The Corporation’s capital position is strong with total risk-based capital ratio of 15.99% and a leverage ratio of 9.85%.


·

The loan portfolio increased approximately $7 million due to loan growth in commercial real estate loans for hotels and motels and land development. 

·

A lease liability and a right-of-use asset of $6.2 million were recognized during the quarter.

25


·

Deposits decreased $6.1 million in the first quarter,  primarily in municipal money management accounts.  

·

Shareholders’ equity increased $3.1 million due to net income of $3.2 million and $1.1 million increase in other comprehensive income for the quarter, offset by the first quarter dividend of $1.2 million.

GAAP versus non-GAAP Presentations – The Corporation supplements its traditional GAAP measurements with certain non-GAAP measurements to evaluate its performance and to eliminate the effect of intangible assets.  By eliminating intangible assets (Goodwill), the Corporation believes it presents a measurement that is comparable to companies that have no intangible assets or to companies that have eliminated intangible assets in similar calculations. However, not all companies may use the same calculation method for each measurement. The non-GAAP measurements are not intended to be used as a substitute for the related GAAP measurements. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, our reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In the event of such a disclosure or release, the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation G requires: (i) the presentation of the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP and (ii) a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure presented and the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The following table shows the calculation of the non-GAAP measurements.

Net Interest Income

The largest source of the Corporation’s earnings is net interest income, which is defined as the difference between income on interest-earning assets and the expense of interest-bearing liabilities supporting those assets. Principal categories of interest-earning assets are loans and securities, while deposits, short-term borrowings and long-term debt are the principal categories of interest-bearing liabilities. Demand deposits enhance net interest income because they are noninterest-bearing deposits. For the purpose of this discussion, balance sheet items refer to the average balance for the year and net interest income is adjusted to a fully taxable-equivalent basis. This tax-equivalent adjustment facilitates performance comparisons between taxable and tax-free assets by increasing the tax-free income by an amount equivalent to the Federal income taxes that would have been paid if this income were taxable at the Corporation’s 21% Federal statutory rate.

The AFS securities portfolio contained 125 securities with $57.7 million of temporarily impaired fair value and $744 thousand in unrealized losses at March 31, 2019. The total unrealized loss position has decreased $793 thousand since year-end 2018. 

29


For securities with an unrealized loss, Management applies a systematic methodology in order to perform an assessment of the potential for other-than-temporary impairment.  In the case of debt securities, investments considered for other-than-temporary impairment: (1) had a specified maturity or repricing date; (2) were generally expected to be redeemed at par, and (3) were expected to achieve a recovery in market value within a reasonable period of time. In addition, the Bank considers whether it intends to sell these securities or whether it will be forced to sell these securities before the earlier of amortized cost recovery or maturity. The impairment identified on debt securities and subject to assessment at March 31, 2019, was deemed to be temporary and required no further adjustments to the financial statements, unless otherwise noted.

The following table reflects temporary impairment in the AFS securities portfolio, aggregated by investment category, length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position and the number of securities in each category as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

The unrealized loss in the municipal bond portfolio decreased to $108$242 thousand from $484$997 thousand at December 31, 2018 as interest rates remained flat during the year.2019. There are twenty-two securities in this portfolio with an unrealized loss and the loss in this portfolio is deemed to be non-credit related and no other-than-temporary impairment charges have been recorded.

The trust preferred portfolio contains five securities with a fair value of $3.9$3.5 million and an unrealized loss of $180$556 thousand. The trust-preferred securities held by the Bank are single entity issues, not pooled trust preferred securities. Therefore, the impairment review of these securities is based only on the issuer and the security cannot be impaired by the performance of other issuers as if it was a pooled trust-preferred bond. All of the Bank’s trust preferred securities are single issue, variable rate notes with long maturities (2027 – (2027–2028). None of these bondsissuers have suspended or missed a dividend payment. At March 31, 2019,2020, the Bank believes it will be able to collect all interest and principal due on these bondsand no other-than-temporary-impairment charges were recorded.

The unrealized loss in the Asset-backed securities portfolio increased $731 thousand from December 31, 2019.  This sector had the largest unrealized loss of $1.0 million, 44.4% of the total unrealized losses ($2.3 million).   FFELP (Federal Family Education Loan Program) bonds make up the majority of this sector and have a 97% guarantee from the US Department of Education.   The FFELP bonds are all rated AAA.  Management fully expects to be paid back at par and no other-than-temporary impairment charges have been recorded.

Equity securities at Fair Value:The Corporation owns one equity investment. At March 31, 20192020 and December 31, 2018,2019, this investment was reported at fair value of $377$313 thousand and $374$440 thousand, respectively, with changes in value reported through income.

Restricted Stock at Cost:The Bank held $452$465 thousand of restricted stock at March 31, 2019.2020. Except for $30 thousand, this investment represents stock in FHLB Pittsburgh. The Bank is required to hold this stock to be a member of FHLB and it is carried at cost of $100 per share. The level of FHLB stock held is determined by FHLB and is comprised of a minimum membership amount plus a variable activity amount. FHLB stock is evaluated for impairment primarily

30


based on an assessment of the ultimate recoverability of its cost. As a government sponsored entity, FHLB has the ability to raise funding through the U.S. Treasury that can be used to support its operations. There is not a public market for FHLB stock and the benefits of FHLB membership (e.g., liquidity and low costlow-cost funding) add value to the stock beyond purely financial measures. Management intends to remain a member of the FHLB and believes that it will be able to fully recover the cost basis of this investment.

Loans:    

Loans:

Residential real estate: This category is comprised of consumer purpose loans secured by residential real estate and to a lesser extent, commercial purpose loans secured by residential real estate. The consumer purpose category represents traditional residential mortgage loans and home equity products (primarily junior liens and lines of credit). Commercial purpose loans in this category represent loans made for various business needs but are secured with residential real estate. In addition to the real estate collateral, it is possible that additional security is provided by personal guarantees or UCC filings. These loans are underwritten as commercial loans and are not originated to be sold.

30


Total residential real estate loans decreased $2.0increased $3.4 million over year-end 2018,2019, as the Bank retained a lowerhigher percentage of its originations. For the first three months of 2019,2020, the Bank originated $9.2 million and sold $6.2$8.5 million in mortgages for a fee through a third party brokerage agreement.agreements. The Bank does not originate or hold any loans that would be considered sub-prime or Alt-A and does not generally originate mortgages outside of its primary market area.

Residential real estate construction: This category contains loans for the vertical construction of 1-4 family residential properties. The largest component of this category represents loans to residential real estate developers ($11.211.0 million), while loans for individuals to construct personal residences totaled $2.8$4.5 million at March 31, 2019.2020. The Bank’s exposure to residential construction loans is concentrated primarily in south central Pennsylvania. Real estate construction loans, including residential real estate and land development loans, occasionally provide an interest reserve in order to assist the developer during the development stage when minimal cash flow is generated. All real estate construction loans are underwritten in the same manner, regardless of the use of an interest reserve.

At March 31, 2019,2020, the Bank had $8.7$17.1 million in real estate construction loans funded with an interest reserve and capitalized $23$222 thousand of interest in 20192020 from these reserves on active projects.  These loans were comprised of $2.5 million in residential construction and $6.2 million inprojects for commercial construction. Real estate construction loans are monitored on a regular basis by either an independent third partythird-party inspector or the assigned loan officer depending on loan amount or complexity of the project. This monitoring process includes at a minimum, the submission of invoices and AIA documents (depending on the complexity of the project) detailing costs incurred by the borrower, on-site inspections, and a signature by the assigned loan officer for disbursement of funds.

Commercial real estate (CRE): This category includes commercial, industrial, farm and agricultural loans and land development loans, where real estate serves as the primary collateral for the loans. Total commercial real estate loans increased to $498.0remained flat at $494.1 million from $488.0$494.2 million at the end of 2018, an increase of $10.0 million.  The increase was primarily in hotels and motels ($4.0 million) and land development ($5.1 million).2019, as originations kept pace with pay-downs. The largest sectors (by collateral) in the commercial real estate category are: hotels and motels ($74.569.1 million), land development ($65.3 million), office buildings ($62.655.2 million), land development ($48.3 million), manufacturingwarehouse facilities ($41.531.9 million) and auto dealershipsmanufacturing facility ($32.831.7 million). The majority of the Bank’s hotel exposure is located along the Interstate 81 (I-81) corridor through south-central Pennsylvania. The portfolio is comprised of properties operating under 16 flagged brands, representing 10 hotel chains. Independent hotels represent only 4% of the hotel portfolio.

Commercial (C&I):Commercial: This category includes commercial, industrial, farm, agricultural, and municipal loans. C&ICommercial loans decreased $4.8$3.9 million to $269.2$226.1 million at March 31, 2019,2020, compared to $274.1$230.0 million at the end of 2018,2019, primarily due to a $3.9 million tax free loan pay-off.paydowns. At March 31, 2019,2020, the Bank had approximately $162$138 million in tax-free loans in the C&Icommercial portfolio. The largest sectors (by industry) in the commercial C&I category are: public administration ($84.469.9 million), utilities ($34.833.5 million), educational services ($25.022.8 million) and, real estate rental and leasing ($15.213.0 million) and finance and insurance ($12.2 million). The Bank expects that commercial lending will continue to be the primary area of loan growth in the future via in-market lending.

Participations: The Bank may supplement its own commercial loan production by purchasing loan participations. These participations are primarily located in south-central Pennsylvania. At March 31, 2019,2020, the outstanding commercial participations accounted for 9.3%6.4%, or $91.0$60.3 million, of total gross loans compared to 9.6%9.4% and $93.4$67.7 million at December 31, 2018.2019. The Bank’s total exposure (including outstanding balances and unfunded commitments) to purchased participations is $115.2$75.7 million, compared to $120.4$84.0 million at December 31, 2018.2019. The commercial loan participations are comprised of $21.6$14.9 million of C&ICommercial loans and $69.4$45.4 million of CRE loans, reported in the respective loan class. The above results indicate that Management has been executing its strategy to emphasize loan originations over purchasing participations.

Consumer loans: This category remained unchanged overincreased by $221 thousand to $6.7 million at March 31, 2020, compared to $6.5 million at prior year-end and is mainly comprised of unsecured personal lines of credit.

Loan Quality:

Management utilizes a risk rating scale ranging from 1-Prime to 9-Loss to evaluate loan quality. This risk rating scale is used primarily for commercial purpose loans. Consumer purpose loans are identified as either a pass or substandard rating based on the performance status of the loans. Substandard consumer loans are loans that are 90 days or more past due and still accruing. Loans rated 1 – 4 are considered pass credits. Loans that are rated 5 are pass credits but have been identified as credits that are likely to warrant additional attention and monitoring. Loans rated 6-Special Mention6-Other Asset Especially Mentioned (OAEM) or worse begin to receive enhanced monitoring and reporting by the Bank. Loans rated 7-Substandard or 8-Doubtful exhibit the greatest financial weakness and present the greatest possible risk of loss to the Bank. Nonaccrual loans are rated no better than 7-Substandard. The following factors represent some of the factors used in determining the risk rating of a borrower: cash flow, debt coverage, liquidity, management, and collateral. Risk ratings, for pass credits, are generally reviewed annually for term debt and at renewal for revolving or renewing debt. The Bank monitors loan quality by reviewing three primary measurements: (1) loans rated 6-Special Mention6-OAEM or worse (collectively “watch list”), (2) delinquent loans, and (3) net-charge-offs.,

Watch list loans exhibit financial weaknesses that increase the potential risk of default or loss to the Bank. However, inclusion on the watch list, does not by itself, mean a loss is certain. The watch list totaled $9.9$11.1 million at quarter end compared to $10.3$11.6 million at December 31, 2018.2019. The watch list includes both performing and nonperforming loans. It is comprised entirely of loans rate 6-Special Mention and 7-Substandard. Included in the substandard total are $5.6$3.7 million of nonaccrual loans. The credit composition of the watch list (loans raterated 6, 7, or 8), by primary collateral is shown in Note 6 of the accompanying financial statements.

Delinquent loans are a result of borrowers’ cash flow and/or alternative sources of cash being insufficient to repay loans. The Bank’s likelihood of collateral liquidation to repay the loans becomes more probable the further behind a borrower falls, particularly when loans reach 90 days or more past due. Management monitors the performance status of loans by the use of an aging report. The aging report can provide an early indicator of loans that may become severely delinquent and possibly result in a loss to the Bank. See Note 6 in the accompanying financial statements for a table that presents the aging of payments in the loan portfolio.

Nonaccruing loans generally represent Management’s determination that the borrower will be unable to repay the loan in accordance with its contractual terms and that collateral liquidation may or may not fully repay both interest and principal. It is the Bank’s policy to evaluate the probable collectability of principal and interest due under terms of loan contracts for all loans 90-days or more, nonaccrual loans, or impaired loans. Further, it is the Bank’s policy to discontinue

32


accruing interest on loans that are not adequately secured and in the process of collection. Upon determination of nonaccrual status, the Bank subtracts any current year accrued and unpaid interest from its income, and any prior year

accrued and unpaid interest from the allowance for loan losses. Management continually monitors the status of nonperforming loans, the value of any collateral and potential of risk of loss. Nonaccrual loans are rated no better than 7-Substandard.

The Bank’s Loan Management Committee reviews these loans and risk ratings on a quarterly basis in order to proactively identify and manage problem loans. In addition, a committee meets monthly to discuss possible workout strategies for and all credits rated 7-Substandard or worse. Management also tracks other commercial loan risk measurements including high loan to value loans, concentrations, participations and policy exceptions and reports these to the Credit Risk Oversight Committee of the Board of Directors. The Bank also uses a third-party consultant to assist with internal loan review with a goal of reviewing 60% of commercial loans each year. The FDIC defines certain supervisory loan-to-value lending limits. The Bank’s internal loan–to-value limits are all equal to, or have a lower loan-to-value limit than, the supervisory limits. However, in certain instances, the Bank may make a loan that exceeds the supervisory loan-to-value limit. At March 31, 20192020 the Bank had loans of $18.8$22 million (1.9%(2.4% of gross loans) that exceeded the supervisory limit, compared to 1.9%2.69% at year-end 2018.2019.

Loan quality, overall, has declined since year-end 2018, as measured by the balance of nonaccrual loans.  Nonaccrual loans increased $3.3 million from year-end 2018 as one commercial real estate credit ($3.5 million) moved from 60-89 days past due to nonaccrualremained stable during the first quarter of 2020. Both nonaccrual loans, and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing have declined slightly since year-end 2019. Potential problem loans, defined as watch list loans less loans on nonaccrual or past due more than 90 days declined to $4.1$6.3 million at March 31, 20192020 compared to $7.6$7.7 million at December 31, 20182019 as a result of the commercial real estate loan moving to nonaccrual.

In addition to monitoring nonaccrual loans, the Bank also closely monitors impaired loans and troubled debt restructurings (TDR). A loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect all interest and principal payments due according to the originally contracted terms of the loan agreement. Nonaccrual loans (excluding consumer purpose loans) and TDR loans are considered impaired.

A loan is considered a troubled debt restructuring if the creditor (the Bank), for economic or legal reasons related to the debtor’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. These concessions may include lowering the rate, extending the maturity, re-amortization of the payment, or a combination of multiple concessions. The Bank reviews all loans rated 6-Special Mention6-OAEM or worse when it is providing a loan restructure, modification or new credit facility to determine if the action is a TDR. If a TDR loan is placed on nonaccrual status, it remains on nonaccrual status for at least six months to ensure performance.

In accordance with financial accounting standards, TDR loans are always considered impaired until they are paid off or in certain circumstances, refinanced. However, an impaired TDR loan can be a performing loan. Impaired loans increaseddecreased to $15.2$12.0 million at quarter-end compared to $11.9$12.2 million at year-end 2018, primarily2019.

Pandemic Effect on Loan Quality The credit quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio as of March 31, 2020 is stable. The ratio of nonperforming loans to total gross loans is .40%. However, the pandemic outbreak has the potential to affect the credit quality of the loan portfolio in future periods. The pandemic has resulted in certain federal, state and local governmental authorities taking action to stop the spread of the pandemic. These actions have included stay-at-home orders, restrictions on business activity, and proclamations and/or directives aimed at minimizing the spread of the pandemic by restricting the movement of people, products and services in the economy. As a result of these actions, the economic activity of the Bank’s market area has been curtailed, businesses have been shut down and unemployment has dramatically increased. The repayment of every loan is dependent, in some way, on an efficiently functioning economy. Any action that has the effect of restricting economic activity has the potential to reduce cash flow available to repay loans. At this time, the length of this economic downturn is uncertain, as is the effect on the Bank’s loan portfolio.

As addressed below in the Allowance for Loan Losses (ALL) section, the ALL was increased by $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2020 based on higher risk factors in the qualitative allowance. In evaluating the loan portfolio, the most significant things considered were; loan deferrals or modifications, the Paycheck Protection Program, and composition of the portfolio by industry segments.

Loan Deferrals. As the economy quickly contracted in March 2020 as the result of the pandemic, the Bank began to receive requests for payment modifications. Unlike past economic downturns, bank regulators provided favorable guidance for banks allowing them wide latitude to make modifications. This guidance, allowed under certain circumstances, banks to avoid reporting modifications as delinquent, nonperforming or as a trouble debt restructuring. As of April 30, 2020, the Bank has granted approximately $154 million loan deferrals or modifications (approximately 16% of gross loans). These modifications include the deferral of principal and interest payments, deferral of interest payments for interest only lines of credit or providing for an interest only payment. Any interest that is deferred is due and payable at the end of the deferral period. Principal that is deferred will be added to the end of the loan as an extension of the maturity date or as a balloon payment, depending on the loan structure. The Bank will continue to accrue interest during the deferral period. The majority of deferrals were for 3 months.

The performance of these loans as they come out of the deferral period will be critical in predicting the credit quality of the loans in the future. The Bank expects the balance of modifications and deferrals to increase during the second quarter.

Paycheck Protection Program. The Bank participated in the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) administered by the Small Business Administration (SBA). The PPP is a small business loan program designed to assist in allowing small businesses to keep workers on the payroll during the COVID-19 pandemic. When workers are kept on the payroll for the qualifying period, the loan could be forgiven if the small business incurs eligible expenses. The PPP loans, are 100 percent guaranteed by the SBA, have a maturity of two-years and have a fixed interest rate of 1% for the life of the loan. Borrowers of PPP loans do not have to make payments on the loan for the first six months, then it is fully amortizing for the remainder of the two-year term. The SBA pays originating banks a processing fee ranging from 3% to 5% of the loan, depending on the loan balance. The Bank focused its efforts for the first round of the PPP on its current customers and funded 90% of all approved applications it received for approximately $50.1 million. The Bank expects to receive fee income of approximately $2 million of processing fees from PPP loans recognized over the second and third quarter of 2020. The PPP loans are 100% guaranteed by the SBA, thereby presenting no credit risk to the Bank once the SBA guarantee is fulfilled, if necessary. However, the PPP loan is only designed to cover short-term operating needs of the borrower. If the economy does not recover quickly from the new nonaccrualpandemic and the borrower experiences long-term operational problems beyond the PPP funding, the performance of other loans to these customers could begin to deteriorate.

Industry Exposure. With the pandemic shut down of non-essential businesses and stay at home orders, nearly every business and industry has been affected. Certain businesses have had a complete stoppage of operations, while many others have seen their business significantly reduced. Some businesses have requested loan previously discussed.modifications and others have taken PPP loans to continue operations.

To better understand the risk in the portfolio from the pandemic, the Bank has segregated its portfolio by industry and the perceived exposure to be economically affected by the pandemic.

Allowance for Loan Losses:

Management monitors loan performance on a monthly basis and performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses (ALL). The ALL is determined by segmenting the loan portfolio based on the loan’s collateral. When calculating the ALL, consideration is given to a variety of factors in establishing this estimate including, but not limited to, current economic conditions, diversification of the loan portfolio, delinquency statistics, results of internal loan reviews, historical charge-offs, the adequacy of the underlying collateral (if collateral dependent) and other relevant factors. The Bank begins enhanced monitoring of all loans rated 6-Special Mention6-OAEM, or worse, and obtains a new appraisal or asset valuation for any placed on nonaccrual and rated 7-Substandard or worse. Management, at its discretion, may determine that additional adjustments to the appraisal or valuation are required. Valuation adjustments will be made as necessary based on factors, including, but not limited to:to; the economy, deferred maintenance, industry, type of property/equipment, age of the appraisal, etc. and the knowledge Management has about a particular situation. In addition, the cost to sell or liquidate the collateral is also estimated and deducted from the valuation in order to determine the net realizable value to the Bank.When determining the allowance for loan losses, certain factors involved in the evaluation are inherently subjective and require material estimates that may be susceptible to significant change, including the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans. Management monitors the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses on an ongoing basis and reports its adequacy quarterly to the Credit Risk Oversight

34


Committee of the Board of Directors. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 20192020 is adequate.

The analysis for determining the ALL is consistent with guidance set forth in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and the Interagency Policy Statement on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses. The analysis has three components; specific, general and unallocated. The specific component addresses specific reserves established for impaired loans. A loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect all interest and principal payments due according to the originally contracted terms of the loan agreement. Collateral values discounted for market conditions and selling costs are used to establish specific allocations for impaired loans. However, it is possible that as a result of the credit analysis, a specific reserve is not required for an impaired loan. For impairedCommercial loans with balancesa balance less than $250 thousand, and all consumer purpose loans aare not included in the specific reserve analysis is not performed and theseas impaired loans but are added to the general allocation pool. These loans totaled $860$412 thousand at March 31, 20192020 and are comprised primarily of loans secured by residential real estate. Management does not believe that excluding these loans from the specific reserve analysis presents any additional risk. There was no specific reserve established for any of the impaired loans. Note 6 of the accompanying financial statements provides additional information about the ALL established for impaired loans.

The general allocation component addresses the reserves established for pools of homogenous loans. The general component includes a quantitative and qualitative analysis. When calculating the general allocation, the Bank segregates its loan portfolio into the following segments based primarily on the type of supporting collateral: residential real estate, commercial, industrial or agricultural real estate; commercial and industrial (C&I non-real estate), and consumer. Each segment may be further segregated by type of collateral, lien position, or owner/nonowner occupied properties. The quantitative analysis uses the Bank’s twenty quarter rolling historical loan loss experience as determined for each loan segment to determine a loss factor applicable to each loan segment. The allowance established as a result of the quantitative analysis was $2.9 million at March 31, 2020, unchanged from year-end 2019.

The qualitative analysis utilizes a risk matrix that incorporates four primary risk factors: economic conditions, delinquency, classified loans, and level of risk, and assigns a risk levelscore (as measured in basis points) to each factor. In determiningThe

36


economic condition factor is primarily based on unemployment rates. The delinquency factor considers the level of past due loans and charge-offs. The classified loan factor considers the internal credit risk score of the portfolio. The level for these primary factors, consideration is given toof risk factor considers operational factors such as: loan volume, management, loan review process, credit concentrations, competition, and legal and regulatory issues. The level of risk score (as measured in basis points) for each primary factorof the four risk factors is set for five risk levels ranging from minimal, risk tolow, moderate, high and very high risk and is determined independently for commercial loans, residential mortgage loans and consumer loans. At March 31, the Bank increased the risk score for economic conditions and level of risk from a moderate range to a very high range for all loan portfolios to reflect increased risk presented by the pandemic. The risk score for delinquency and classified loan factors remained unchanged but could increase depending loan performance in the future. These changes resulted in a $2.6 million increase in the qualitative component of the ALL to $10.3 million March 31, 2020.

The unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect Management’s estimate of probable loss. The unallocated component of the ALL reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.

The following table shows, by loan segment, the activity in the ALL, the amount of allowance established in each category and the loans that were evaluated for the ALL under a specific reserve (individually) and those that were evaluated under a general reserve (collectively) as of March 31, 2020.

Real estate appraisals and collateral valuations are an important part of the Bank’s process for determining potential loss on collateral dependent loans and thereby have a direct effect on the determination of loan reserves, charge-offs and the calculation of the allowance for loan losses. As long as the loan remains a performing loan, no further updates to appraisals are required. If a loan or relationship migrates to nonaccrual and a risk rating of 7-Substandard or worse, an evaluation for impairment status is made based on the current information available at the time of downgrade and a new appraisal or collateral valuation is obtained. We believe this practice complies with the regulatory guidance.

In determining the allowance for loan losses, Management, at its discretion, may determine that additional adjustments to the fair value obtained from an appraisal or collateral valuation are required. Adjustments will be made as necessary based on factors, including, but not limited to the economy, deferred maintenance, industry, type of property or equipment etc., and the knowledge Management has about a particular situation. In addition, the cost to sell or liquidate the collateral is also estimated and deducted from the valuation in order to determine the net realizable value to the Bank. If an appraisal is not available, Management may make its best estimate of the real value of the collateral or use last

37


known market value and apply appropriate discounts.  If an adjustment is made to the collateral valuation, this will be documented with appropriate support and reported to the Loan Management Committee.

Other Real Estate Owned: 

The Bank holds $2.7 million of other real estate owned (OREO), comprised of two properties. The most significant OREO holding is one property carried at $2.6 million (98% of total OREO) that is secured by 196 acres of land intended for residential real estate development. The Bank has a contract on the property that is expected to settle in 2019 with no loss to the Bank. During 2019, the expense to hold and maintain OREO was $17 thousand. Note 8 of the accompanying financial statements provides additional information on activity in OREO.

Deposits: 

Total deposits decreased $6.1$8.0 million during the first three months of 20192020 to $1.076$1.117 billion. Non-interest bearingNoninterest-bearing deposits decreased $5.4increased $6.3 million (primarily in commercialsmall business checking deposits) and interest-bearing checking and savings deposits decreased $28.2$8.7 million, while time deposits increased $27.5decreased $5.5 million. Interest bearingInterest-bearing checking decreased by $9.3$12.0 million, primarily in commercial and retailmunicipal deposits, while the Bank’s Money Management productand remained flat and Savings products increased $2.3 million compared to year-end 2019. Time deposits also decreased $19.8 million,since year-end and primarily in retail accounts as customers moved funds to higher rate time deposits.  Time deposits increased since year-end from CD promotions.  The Bank acquired $10 million of short-term wholesale brokered CDs in the first quarter of 2019. accounts.

As of March 31, 2019,2020, the Bank had $155.7$158.1 million placed in the ICS reciprocal deposit program ($108.7106.3 million in interesting-bearing checking and $47.0$48.5 million in money management) and $3.3$3.2 million in reciprocal time deposits in the CDARS program included in time deposits. These programs allow the Bank to offer full FDIC coverage to large depositors, but with the convenience to the customer of only having to deal with one bank. The Bank solicits these deposits from within its market and it believes they present no greater risk than any other local deposit. Only reciprocal deposits that exceed 20% of liabilities are considered brokered deposits. At March 31, 2020 the Bank’s reciprocal deposits were 14.7% of total liabilities compared to 14.2% at year-end 2019.

negotiated transactions beginning December 21, 2018September 13, 2019 and continuing through December 21, 2019.September 12, 2020. During the first three monthsquarter of 2019, 14,553 shares were repurchased.  No2020, 36,401 shares were repurchased, under the 2019 plan. The Corporation suspended activity in the first three monthsstock repurchase plan on March 19, 2020.

Capital adequacy is currently defined by regulatory agencies through the use of 2018.  The 2017 Repurchase Plan expired on September 30, 2018.

In July 2013, Federal banking regulators approved the final rules from the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision for the regulation of capital requirements for bank holding companies and U.S banks, generally referred to as “Basel III.” The Basel III standards were effective for the Corporation and the Bank, effective January 1, 2015 (subject to a phase-in

37


period for certain provisions).  Basel III imposes significantly higher capital requirements and more restrictive leverage and liquidity ratios than those previously in place.several minimum required ratios. The capital ratios to be considered “well capitalized” under Basel III are: (1) Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) of 6.5%, (2) Tier 1 Leverage of 5%, (3) Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital of 8%, and (4) Total Risk-Based Capital of 10%. The CET1 ratio is a new capital ratio under Basel III and the Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 8% has been increased from 6%. The rules also include changes in the risk weights of certain assets to better reflect credit and other risk exposures. In addition, a capital conservation buffer will be phased-in beginning January 1, 2016 at 0.625%, 1.25% for 2017, 1.875% for 2018 andof 2.50% for 2019 and thereafter.  The capital conservation buffer will beis applicable to all of the capital ratios except for the Tier1Tier 1 Leverage ratio. The capital conservation buffer is equal to the lowest value of the three applicable capital ratios less the regulatory minimum for each respective capital measurement. The Bank’s capital conservation buffer at March 31, 20192020 was 6.95%7.78% (total risk-based capital 14.95%15.78% less 8.00%) compared to the 20182020 regulatory buffer of 2.50%. Compliance with the capital conservation buffer is required in order to avoid limitations to certain capital distributions.distributions and is in addition to the minimum required capital requirements. As of March 31, 2019,2020, the Bank was “well capitalized” under.

In 2019, the Basel III requirementsCommunity Bank Leverage Ratio (CBLR) was approved by federal banking agencies as an optional capital measure available to Qualifying Community Banking Organizations (QCBO). If a bank qualifies as a QCBR and believes itmaintains a CBLR of 9% or greater, the bank would be “well capitalized”considered “well-capitalized” for regulatory capital purposes and exempt from complying with the risk-based capital rule described above. The CBLR rule took effect January 1, 2020 and banks desiring to opt-in can do so through an election in the first quarter 2020 regulatory filing. The Bank meets the criteria of a QCBR but did not opt-in to the CBLR.

The Bank is participating in the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and the Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility (PPPLF) to fund PPP Loans. In accordance with regulatory guidance, PPP loans pledged as collateral for PPPLF, and PPPLF advances, are excluded from leverage capital ratios. PPP loans will also carry a 0% risk-weight for risk-based capital rules.

The consolidated asset limit on small bank holding companies is $3 billion and a fully-phased in basis had such a requirement been in effect.company with assets under that limit is not subject to the consolidated capital rules but may file reports that include capital amounts and ratios. The Corporation has elected to file those reports.

Economy

The Corporation’s primary market area includes Franklin, Fulton, Cumberland and Huntingdon Counties, Pennsylvania. This area is diverse in demographic and economic makeup. County populations range from a low of approximately 15,000 in Fulton County to over 249,000 in Cumberland County. Unemployment in the Bank’s market area has remained virtually unchanged over the past year and ranges from a low of 3.1%3.5% in Cumberland County to 6.4%5.3% in

39


Huntingdon County. The market area has a diverse economic base and local industries include warehousing, truck & rail shipping centers, light and heavy manufacturers, health-care, higher education institutions, farming and agriculture, and a varied service sector. The Corporation’s primary market area is located in South Central PA and provides easy access to the major metropolitan markets on the east coast via trucking and rail transportation. Because of this, warehousing and distribution companies continue to find the area attractive. The local economy is not overly dependent on any one industry or business and Management believes that the Bank’s primary market area continues to be well suited for growth.

In early March 2020, the economic outlook changed dramatically driven primarily by the COVID-19 pandemic. The following provides selectedpandemic has resulted in certain federal, state and local governmental authorities taking action to stop the spread of the pandemic. These actions have included stay-at-home orders, restrictions on business activity, and proclamations and/or directives aimed at minimizing the spread of the pandemic by restricting the movement of people, products and services in the economy. As a result of these actions, the economic data foractivity of the Bank’s primary market:market area has been curtailed, businesses have been shut down and unemployment has dramatically increased. The repayment of every loan is dependent, in some way, on an efficiently functioning economy. Any action that has the effect of restricting economic activity has the potential to reduce cash flow available to repay loans. At this time, the length of this economic downturn and its effect on the Corporation is uncertain.

The impact of inflation upon financial institutions such as the Corporation differs from its effect upon other commercial enterprises. Unlike many companies, the assets and liabilities of the Corporation are financial in nature. As such, interest rates and changes in interest rates may have a more significant effect on the Corporation’s financial results than on other types of industries. Because of this, the Corporation watches the actions of the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee (FOMC) as it makes decisions about interest rate changes. FOMC members had estimated in December that twochanges and how such changes affect market rates and the Corporation. Although inflation (and inflation expectations) may affect the interest rate hikes would be appropriate in 2019 after four increases in 2018.  However, there now appearsenvironment, it is not possible to be no likelihoodmeasure with any precision the affect of a hike unless conditions change significantly.  In its post-meeting statement,inflation on the FOMC indicated it would remain “patient” before adopting any further increases.Corporation.

Liquidity

The Corporation must meet the financial needs of the customers that it serves, while providing a satisfactory return on the shareholders’ investment. In order to accomplish this, the Corporation must maintain sufficient liquidity in order to respond quickly to the changing level of funds required for both loan and deposit activity. The goal of liquidity management is to meet the ongoing cash flow requirements of depositors who want to withdraw funds and of borrowers who request loan disbursements. The Bank regularly reviews it liquidity position by measuring its projected net cash flows (in and out) at a 30 and 90-day interval. The Bank stresses the measurements by assuming a level of deposit out-flows that have not historically been realized. In addition to this forecast, other funding sources are reviewed as a method to provide emergency funding if necessary. The objective of this measurement is to identify the amount of cash that could be raised quickly without the need to liquidate assets. The Bank also stresses its liquidity position utilizing different longer-term scenarios. The varying degrees of stress create pressure on deposit flows in its local market, reduce access to wholesale funding and limit access of funds available through brokered deposit channels. In addition to stressing cash flow, specific liquidity risk indicators are monitored to help identify risk areas. This analysis helps identify and quantify the potential cash surplus/deficit over a variety of time horizons to ensure the Bank has adequate funding resources. Assumptions used for liquidity stress testing are subjective. Should an evolving liquidity situation or business cycle present new data, potential assumption changes will be considered. The Bank believes it can meet all anticipated liquidity demands.

Historically, the Corporation has satisfied its liquidity needs from earnings, repayment of loans and amortizing investment securities, maturing investment securities, loan` sales, deposit growth and its ability to access existing lines of credit. All investment securities are classified as available for sale; therefore, securities that are unencumbered (approximately $65.4$125.7 million fair value) as collateral for borrowings are an additional source of readily available liquidity, either by selling the security or, more preferably, to provide collateral for additional borrowing. The Bank also has access to other wholesale funding via the brokered CD market.

The FHLB system has always been a major funding source for community banks.  The Bank’s maximum borrowing capacity with the FHLB at March 31, 2019 was $367.8 million with $367.8 million available to borrow.Bank. There are no current indicators that lead the Bank to believe the FHLB would discontinue its lending function or restrict the Bank’s ability to borrow. If either of these events would occur, it would have a negative effect on the Bank, and it is unlikely that the Bank could replace the level of FHLB funding in a short time.

Pandemic Effect on Liquidity - The Bank is closely monitoring it liquidity needs as loans are modified and delinquencies are expected to increase. The Bank expects to see a reduction in monthly cash flow from loan deferrals, as discussed in the Loan Quality section. The Bank expects to be able to absorb this reduction through its current liquidity resources. To support its liquidity position, the Bank is participating in the Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility (PPPLF) established by the Federal Reserve to fund loans made through the Paycheck Protection Program sponsored by the Small Business Administration. The PPPLF is a term financing facility with a fixed interest rate of quarter-end had.35% and a maturity of no more than 2 years for each loan. Loans made through the abilityPPP are used as collateral for PPPLF funding. The PPPLF will allow the Bank to borrow approximately $17.5 million. fully fund its PPP loans at a low fixed rate without having to access its normal liquidity sources described above. The Bank also expects to see a temporary increase in funding as the stimulus checks provided by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) are issued and deposited to the bank. However, the Bank expects these funds to be quickly withdrawn. The Bank believes it can meet all anticipated liquidity demands of the pandemic through its current liquidity sources and the government sponsored programs.

The CARES Act also granted the FDIC authority to reinstitute the liquidity guarantee program to offer unlimited FDIC insurance on noninterest bearing deposit. If this is approved by the FDIC, it would provide less incentive for customers to withdraw deposits and possibly strain bank liquidity

Off Balance Sheet Commitments

The Corporation’s financial statements do not reflect various commitments that are made in the normal course of business, which may involve some liquidity risk. These commitments consist mainly of unfunded loans and letters of credit made under the same standards as on-balance sheet instruments. Because these instruments have fixed maturity dates, and because many of them will expire without being drawn upon, they do not generally present any significant liquidity risk to the Corporation. Unused commitments and standby letters of credit totaled $288.0$329.4 million and $271.7$336.6 million, respectively, at March 31, 20192020 and December 31, 2018.2019. As of June 30, 2018, the Bank established a $2.4 million allowance against letters of credit issued in connection with a commercial borrower that declared bankruptcy inbankruptcy. In the secondfirst quarter of 2018 which remains at2020, the Bank reversed $250 thousand of this reserve as one letter of credit was cancelled. At March 31, 2019.2020 this reserve was $2.1 million.

The Corporation has entered into various contractual obligations to make future payments. These obligations include time deposits, long-term debt, operating leases, deferred compensation and pension payments. These amounts have not changed materially from those reported in the Corporation’s 20182019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There were no material changes in the Corporation’s exposure to market risk during the three months ended March 31, 2019.2020. For more information on market risk refer to the Corporation’s 20182019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Controls and Procedures

The Corporation carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Corporation’s management, including the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based upon the evaluation, the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of March 31, 2019,2020, the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Corporation’s reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. There were no changes in the Corporation’s internal control

41


over financial reporting during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2019,2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting.

The management of the Corporation is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Corporation’s internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Part II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.Legal Proceedings

The nature of the Corporation’s business generates a certain amount of litigation.

We establish accruals for legal proceedings when information related to the loss contingencies represented by those matters indicates both that a loss is probable, and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. When we are able to do so, we also determine estimates of possible losses, whether in excess of any accrued liability or where there is no accrued liability.

These assessments are based on our analysis of currently available information and are subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions and uncertainties. As new information is obtained, we may change our assessments and, as a result, take or adjust the amounts of our accruals and change our estimates of possible losses or ranges of possible losses. Due to the inherent subjectivity of the assessments and the unpredictability of outcomes of legal proceedings, any amounts that may be accrued or included in estimates of possible losses or ranges of possible losses may not represent the actual loss to the Corporation from any legal proceeding. Our exposure and ultimate losses may be higher, possibly significantly higher, than amounts we may accrue or amounts we may estimate.

In management’s opinion, we do not anticipate, at the present time, that the ultimate aggregate liability, if any, arising out of all litigation to which the Corporation is a party will have a material adverse effect on our financial position. We cannot now determine, however, whether or not any claim asserted against us will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in any future reporting period, which will depend on, amount other things, the amount of loss resulting from the claim and the amount of income otherwise reported for the reporting period. Thus, at March 31, 2020, we are unable to provide an evaluation of the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or an estimate of the amount or range of potential loss with respect to such other matters and, accordingly, have not yet established any specific accrual for such other matters.

No material proceedings are pending or are known to be threatened or contemplated against us by governmental authorities.

In management’s opinion, there are no other proceedings pending to which the Corporation is a party or to which its property is subject which, if determined adversely to the Corporation, would be material. No material proceedings are pending or are known to be threatened or contemplated against us by any governmental authorities.

As described in our current report on Form 8-K filed on August 3, 2018, the court entered an order on July 31, 2018 granting final approval of the settlement agreements in the Kalan et al. v. Farmers and Merchants Trust Company of Chambersburg, et al. (Case No. 2:15-CV-01435-WB) case filed against F&M Trust in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania in March, 2015 and described in our current reports on Form 8-K filed July 29, 2016, July 28, 2017, November 3, 2017, January 2, 2018, April 13, 2018, May 7, 2018 and August 3, 2018. Among other things, the order also dismissed the case against F&M Trust with prejudice; certified the settlement class; and, permanently enjoined the named plaintiffs and the members of the settlement class from asserting any further claims arising out of or related to the claims alleged or that could have been alleged in the case against F&M Trust. The settlement agreements provide for the Bank to make a settlement payment of $10 million in full and final settlement of all such claims.  The settlement agreements further provide for general releases by all parties.  F&M Trust made the settlement payment in May, 2018, in accordance with the court’s earlier order preliminarily approving the settlement agreements. The Corporation previously accrued the $10 million settlement payment as an expense for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There were no material changes in the Corporation’s risk factors duringDuring the three months ended March 31, 2019. For more information, refer to2020 the Corporation has determined the following risk associated with its business, financial condition, results of operations and common stock. This risk factor supplements the risk factors described in the Corporation’s 20182019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Public health crisis such as epidemics or pandemics could materially and adversely impact our business.

The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global, national and local economies, disrupted global and national supply chains, lowered equity market valuations, created significant volatility and disruption in financial markets, and increased unemployment levels. In addition, the pandemic has resulted in temporary closures of many businesses and the institution of social distancing and sheltering in place requirements in many states and communities. As a result, the demand for our products and services may be significantly impacted, which could adversely affect our revenue and results of operations. Furthermore, the pandemic could continue to result in the recognition of credit losses in our loan portfolios and increase in our allowance for credit losses, particularly if businesses remain closed, the impact on the global, national and local economies worsen, or more customers draw on their lines of credit or seek additional loans to help finance their businesses. Similarly, because of changing economic and market conditions affecting issuers, we may be required to recognize further impairments on the securities we hold as well as reductions in other comprehensive income. Our business operations may also be disrupted if significant portions of our workforce are unable to work effectively, including because of illness, quarantines, government actions, or other restrictions in connection with the pandemic. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business, results of operations, and financial conditions, as well as our regulatory capital and liquidity ratios, will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic.

We continue to closely monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and related risks as they evolve. The magnitude, duration and likelihood of the current outbreak of COVID-19, further outbreaks of COVID-19, future actions taken by governmental authorities and/or other third parties in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and its future direct and

4143


indirect effects on the global, national and local economy and our business and results of operation are highly uncertain. The COVID-19 pandemic may cause prolonged global or national recessionary economic conditions or longer lasting effects on economic conditions than currently exist, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
