Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AmeriServ Financial, Inc. (the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, AmeriServ Financial Bank (the Bank), AmeriServ Trust and Financial Services Company (the Trust Company), and AmeriServ Life Insurance Company (AmeriServ Life). The Bank is a Pennsylvania state-chartered full service bank with 15 locations in Pennsylvania. The Trust Company offers a complete range of trust and financial services and administers assets valued at $2.2 billion that are not reported on the Company’s ~~consolidated balance sheet~~Consolidated Balance Sheet at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018. AmeriServ Life is a captive insurance company that engages in underwriting as a reinsurer of credit life and disability insurance.

In addition, the Parent Company is an administrative group that provides support in such areas as audit, finance, investments, loan review, general services, and marketing. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

Basis of Preparation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring entries considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. They are not, however, necessarily indicative of the results of consolidated operations for a full-year.

For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the ~~Company's~~Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,Leases (Topic 842). The standard requires lessees to recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases on the balance sheet. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. A short-term lease is defined as one in which (a) the lease term is 12 months or less and (b) there is not an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. For short-term leases, lessees may elect to recognize lease payments over the lease term on a straight-line basis. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The amendments should be applied at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company is currently assessing the practical measures it may elect at adoption, but does not anticipate the amendment will have a significant impact to the financial statements. Based on the Company’s preliminary analysis of its current portfolio, the Company expects to recognize a right of use asset and a lease liability for its operating leases commitments. The Company also anticipates additional disclosures to be provided at adoption.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,Financial Instruments — Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments(“ASU 2016-13”), which changes the impairment model for most financial assets. This Update is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. The underlying premise of the Update is that financial assets measured at amortized cost should be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, through an allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. The allowance for credit losses should reflect management’s current estimate of credit losses that are expected to occur over the remaining life of a financial asset. The income statement will be effected for the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as the

expected increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. ASU 2016-13 is

effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. With certain exceptions, transition to the new requirements will be through a cumulative effect adjustment to opening retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the Update will have on our consolidated financial statements. The overall impact of the amendment will be affected by the portfolio composition and quality at the adoption date as well as economic conditions and forecasts at that time.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08,Receivables — Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20). The amendments in this Update shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendments require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity should apply the amendments in this Update on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. Additionally, in the period of adoption, an entity should provide disclosures about a change in accounting principle. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Adoption of Accounting Standards

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers — Topic 606 and all subsequent ASUs that modified ASC 606. The standard required a company to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers at the time the transfer of goods or services takes place. The Company completed an assessment of revenue streams and review of the related contracts potentially affected by the new standard and concluded that ASU 2014-09 did not materially change the method in which it recognizes revenue. Therefore, implementation of the new standard had no material impact to the measurement or recognition of revenue of prior periods. However, additional disclosures were added in the current period, which can be found in Note 5.

In January 2016, the FASB finalized ASU 2016-01,Financial Instruments — Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This accounting standard (a) requires separate presentation of equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) on the balance sheet and measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (b) simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment; (c) eliminates the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for entities that are not public business entities; (d) eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet; (e) requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; (f) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (that is, securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements; and (g) clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets.

4. Adoption of Accounting Standards – (continued)

The Company has adopted this standard during the reporting period. On a prospective basis, the Company implemented changes to the measurement of the fair value of financial instruments using an exit

price notion for disclosure purposes included in Note 19 to the financial statements. The December 31, 2017, fair value of each class of financial instruments disclosure did not utilize the exit price notion when measuring fair value and, therefore, would not be comparable to the ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018 disclosure. The Company estimated the fair value based on guidance from ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value as the price which would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There is no active observable market for sale information on community bank loans and, thus, Level III fair value procedures were utilized, primarily in the use of present value techniques incorporating assumptions that market participants would use in estimating fair values.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07,Compensation — Retirement Benefits (Topic 715). The amendments in this Update require that an employer report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2018, which resulted in a reclassification of $22,000 and $(62,000), for the second quarter of 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $44,000 and $(124,000) for the six month period ending June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, from Salaries and employee benefits into Other expense on the Consolidated Statement of ~~Operations for the periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.~~Operations. See Note 18 for additional information on the presentation of these pension cost components.

Revenue Recognition

Management determined that the primary sources of revenue associated with financial instruments, including interest income on loans and investments, along with certain noninterest revenue sources including investment security gains, loan servicing charges, gains on the sale of loans, and bank owned life insurance income are not within the scope of Topic 606. As a result, no changes were made during the period related to these sources of revenue, which cumulatively comprise ~~78.3%~~78.5% of the total revenue of the Company.

Noninterest income within the scope of Topic 606 are as follows:

~~Trust and investment advisory~~•

Wealth management fees — ~~Trust and investment advisory~~Wealth management fee income is primarily comprised of fees earned from the management and administration of trusts and customer investment portfolios. The Company’s performance obligation is generally satisfied over a period of time and the resulting fees are billed monthly or quarterly, based upon the month end market value of the assets under management. Payment is generally received after month end through a direct charge to customers’ accounts. Other performance obligations (such as delivery of account statements to customers) are generally considered immaterial to the overall transactions price. Commissions on transactions are recognized on a trade-date basis as the performance obligation is satisfied at the point in time in which the trade is processed. Also included within wealth management fees are commissions from the sale of mutual funds, annuities, and life insurance products. Commissions on the sale of mutual funds, annuities, and life insurance products are recognized when sold, which is when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation.

annual basis and recognized when billed. However, if the safe deposit box rental fee is prepaid (i.e. paid prior to issuance of annual bill), the revenue is recognized upon receipt of payment. The Company has determined that since rentals and renewals occur consistently over time, revenue is recognized on a basis consistent with the duration of the performance obligation. Gains and losses on the sale of other real estate owned are recognized at the completion of the property sale when the buyer obtains control of the real estate and all the performance obligations of the Company have been satisfied.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The unrealized losses are primarily a result of increases in market yields from the time of purchase. In general, as market yields rise, the value of securities will decrease; as market yields fall, the fair value of securities will increase. There are ~~190~~208 positions that are considered temporarily impaired at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018. Management generally views changes in fair value caused by changes in interest rates as temporary; therefore, these securities have not been classified as other-than-temporarily impaired. Management has also concluded that based on current information we expect to continue to receive scheduled interest payments as well as the entire principal balance. Furthermore, management does not intend to sell these securities and does not believe it will be required to sell these securities before they recover in value.

Contractual maturities of securities at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018 are shown below (in thousands). Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties. The weighted average duration of the total investment securities portfolio at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018 is ~~46.9~~47.2 months and is higher than the duration at December 31, 2017 which was 44.3 months. The duration remains within our internal established guideline range of 24 to 60 months which we believe is appropriate to maintain proper levels of liquidity, interest rate risk, market valuation sensitivity and profitability.

Management evaluates for possible impairment any individual loan in the commercial or commercial real estate segment with a loan balance in excess of $100,000 that is in nonaccrual status or classified as a Troubled Debt Restructure (TDR). Loans are considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in evaluating impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. The Company does not separately evaluate individual consumer and residential mortgage loans for impairment, unless such loans are part of a larger relationship that is impaired, or are classified as a TDR.

Once the determination has been made that a loan is impaired, the determination of whether a specific allocation of the allowance is necessary is measured by comparing the recorded investment in the loan to the fair value of the loan using one of three methods: (a) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; (b) the loan’s observable market price; or (c) the fair value of the collateral less selling costs for collateral dependent loans. The method is selected on a loan-by-loan basis, with management primarily utilizing the fair value of collateral method. The evaluation of the need and amount of a specific allocation of the allowance and whether a loan can be removed from impairment status is made on a quarterly basis. The Company’s policy for recognizing interest income on impaired loans does not differ from its overall policy for interest recognition.

The need for an updated appraisal on collateral dependent loans is determined on a case-by-case basis. The useful life of an appraisal or evaluation will vary depending upon the circumstances of the property and the economic conditions in the marketplace. A new appraisal is not required if there is an existing appraisal which, along with other information, is sufficient to determine a reasonable value for the property and to support an appropriate and adequate allowance for loan losses. At a minimum, annual documented reevaluation of the property is completed by the Bank’s internal Loan Review Department to support the value of the property.

When reviewing an appraisal associated with an existing collateral real estate dependent transaction, the Bank’s internal Assigned Risk Department must determine if there have been material changes to the underlying assumptions in the appraisal which affect the original estimate of value. Some of the factors that could cause material changes to reported values include:

•

the passage of time;

•

the volatility of the local market;

•

the availability of financing;

•

natural disasters;

•

the inventory of competing properties;

•

new improvements to, or lack of maintenance of, the subject property or competing properties upon physical inspection by the Bank;

•

changes in underlying economic and market assumptions, such as material changes in current and projected vacancy, absorption rates, capitalization rates, lease terms, rental rates, sales prices, concessions, construction overruns and delays, zoning changes, etc.; and/or

•

environmental contamination.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

AmeriServ Financial, Inc.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The value of the property is adjusted to appropriately reflect the above listed factors and the value is discounted to reflect the value impact of a forced or distressed sale, any outstanding senior liens, any outstanding unpaid real estate taxes, transfer taxes and closing costs that would occur with sale of the real estate. If the Assigned Risk Department personnel determine that a reasonable value cannot be derived based on available information, a new appraisal is ordered. The determination of the need for a new appraisal, versus completion of a property valuation by the Bank’s Assigned Risk Department personnel rests with the Assigned Risk Department and not the originating account officer.

Management uses a nine point internal risk rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio. The first six categories are considered not criticized. The first five “Pass” categories are aggregated, while the Pass-6, Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful categories are disaggregated to separate pools. The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions. The Special Mention category includes assets that are currently protected but are potentially weak, resulting in an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a Substandard classification. Loans in the Substandard category have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt, and have a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if the weaknesses are not corrected. All loans greater than 90 days past due, or for which any portion of the loan represents a specific allocation of the allowance for loan losses are placed in Substandard or Doubtful.

To help ensure that risk ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay a loan as agreed, the Company has a structured loan rating process, which dictates that, at a minimum, credit reviews are mandatory for all commercial and commercial mortgage loan relationships with aggregate balances in excess of $250,000 within a 12-month period. Generally, consumer and residential mortgage loans are included in the Pass categories unless a specific action, such as bankruptcy, delinquency, or death occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit event. The Company’s commercial relationship managers are responsible for the timely and accurate risk rating of the loans in their portfolios at origination and on an ongoing basis. Risk ratings are assigned by the account officer, but require independent review from the Company’s internal Loan Review Department. The Loan Review Department is an experienced independent function which reports directly to the Board’s Audit Committee. The scope of commercial portfolio coverage by the Loan Review Department is defined and presented to the Audit Committee for approval on an annual basis. The approved scope of coverage for 2018 requires review of a minimum range of 50% to 55% of the commercial loan portfolio.

In addition to loan monitoring by the account officer and Loan Review Department, the Company also requires presentation of all credits rated Pass-6 with aggregate balances greater than $1,000,000, all credits rated Special Mention or Substandard with aggregate balances greater than $250,000, and all credits rated Doubtful with aggregate balances greater than $100,000 on an individual basis to the Company’s Loan Loss Reserve Committee on a quarterly basis. Additionally, the Asset Quality Task Force, which is a group comprised of senior level personnel, meets monthly to monitor the status of problem loans.

It is generally the policy of the Bank that the outstanding balance of any residential mortgage loan that exceeds 90-days past due as to principal and/or interest is transferred to non-accrual status and an evaluation is completed to determine the fair value of the collateral less selling costs, unless the balance is minor. A charge down is recorded for any deficiency balance determined from the collateral evaluation. The remaining non-accrual balance is reported as impaired with no specific allowance. It is generally the policy of the bank that the outstanding balance of any consumer loan that exceeds 90-days past due as to principal and/or interest is charged off.

An allowance for loan losses (“ALL”) is maintained to support loan growth and cover charge-offs from the loan portfolio. The ALL is based on management’s continuing evaluation of the risk characteristics and credit quality of the loan portfolio, assessment of current economic conditions, diversification and size of the portfolio, adequacy of collateral, past and anticipated loss experience, and the amount of non-performing loans.

Loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment are analyzed with general allowances being made as appropriate. For general allowances, historical loss trends are used in the estimation of losses in the current portfolio. These historical loss amounts are complemented by consideration of other qualitative factors.

Management tracks the historical net charge-off activity at each risk rating grade level for the entire commercial portfolio and at the aggregate level for the consumer, residential mortgage and small business portfolios. A historical charge-off factor is calculated utilizing a rolling 12 consecutive historical quarters for the commercial portfolios. This historical charge-off factor for the consumer, residential mortgage and small business portfolios are based on a three year historical average of actual loss experience.

The Company uses a comprehensive methodology and procedural discipline to maintain an ALL to absorb inherent losses in the loan portfolio. The Company believes this is a critical accounting policy since it involves significant estimates and judgments. The allowance consists of three elements: 1) an allowance established on specifically identified problem loans, 2) formula driven general reserves established for loan categories based upon historical loss experience and other qualitative factors which include delinquency, non-performing and TDR loans, loan trends, economic trends, concentrations of credit, trends in loan volume, experience and depth of management, examination and audit results, effects of any changes in lending policies, and trends in policy, financial information, and documentation exceptions, and 3) a general risk reserve which provides support for variance from our assessment of the previously listed qualitative factors,

provides protection against credit risks resulting from other inherent risk factors contained in the Company’s loan portfolio, and recognizes the model and estimation risk associated with the specific and formula driven allowances. The qualitative factors used in the formula driven general reserves are evaluated quarterly (and revised if necessary) by the Company’s management to establish allocations which accommodate each of the listed risk factors.

“Pass” rated credits are segregated from “Criticized” and “Classified” credits for the application of qualitative factors.

Management reviews the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis using a defined, consistently applied process in order to make appropriate and timely adjustments to the ALL. When information confirms all or part of specific loans to be uncollectible, these amounts are promptly charged off against the ALL.

Regulatory Capital

The Company is subject to various capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the ~~Company's~~Company’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The ~~Company's~~Company’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the ~~Company's~~Company’s consolidated financial statements. For a more detailed discussion see the Capital Resources section of the MD&A.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, Tier 1 capital to average assets, and common equity Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (RWA) (as defined). Additionally under Basel III rules, the decision was

made to opt-out of including accumulated other comprehensive income in regulatory capital. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018, the Bank was categorized as “Well Capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action promulgated by the Federal Reserve. The Company believes that no conditions or events have occurred that would change this conclusion as of such date. To be categorized as Well Capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum Total Capital, Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, Tier 1 Capital, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table (in thousands, except ratios).

Derivative Hedging Instruments

The Company can use various interest rate contracts, such as interest rate swaps, caps, floors and swaptions to help manage interest rate and market valuation risk exposure, which is incurred in normal recurrent banking activities. The Company can use derivative instruments, primarily interest rate swaps, to manage interest rate risk and match the rates on certain assets by hedging the fair value of certain fixed rate debt, which converts the debt to variable rates and by hedging the cash flow variability associated with certain variable rate debt by converting the debt to fixed rates.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

AmeriServ Financial, Inc.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

To accommodate the needs of our customers and support the Company’s asset/liability positioning, we may enter into interest rate swap agreements with customers and a large financial institution that specializes in these types of transactions. These arrangements involve the exchange of interest payments based on the notional amounts. The Company entered into floating rate loans and fixed rate swaps with our customers. Simultaneously, the Company entered into offsetting fixed rate swaps with Pittsburgh National Bank (PNC). In connection with each swap transaction, the Company agrees to pay interest to the customer on a notional amount at a variable interest rate and receive interest from the customer on the same notional amount at a fixed interest rate. At the same time, the Company agrees to pay PNC the same fixed interest rate on the same notional amount and receive the same variable interest rate on the same notional amount. These transactions allow the Company’s customers to effectively convert a variable rate loan to a fixed rate. Because the Company acts as an intermediary for its customers, changes in the fair value of the underlying derivative contracts offset each other and do not significantly impact the Company’s results of operations.

The Company monitors and controls all derivative products with a comprehensive Board of Director approved hedging policy. This policy permits a total maximum notional amount outstanding of $500 million for interest rate swaps, interest rate caps/floors, and swaptions. All hedge transactions must be approved in advance by the Investment Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO) of the Board of Directors, unless otherwise approved, as per the terms, within the Board of Directors approved Hedging Policy. The Company had no caps or floors outstanding at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018.

Segment Results

The financial performance of the Company is also monitored by an internal funds transfer pricing profitability measurement system which produces line of business results and key performance measures. The Company’s major business units include retail banking, commercial banking, trust, and investment/parent. The reported results reflect the underlying economics of the business segments. Expenses for centrally provided services are allocated based upon the cost and estimated usage of those services. The businesses are match-funded and interest rate risk is centrally managed and accounted for within the investment/parent business segment. The key performance measure the Company focuses on for each business segment is net income contribution.

Retail banking includes the deposit-gathering branch franchise and lending to both individuals and small businesses. Lending activities include residential mortgage loans, direct consumer loans, and local business commercial loans. Commercial banking to businesses includes commercial loans, business services,

The Company had various outstanding commitments to extend credit approximating ~~$180.0~~$192.5 million and $165.1 million along with standby letters of credit of $10.1 million and $10.0 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. ~~In addition, there were outstanding standby letters of credit of $10.0 million in each period.~~ The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to these commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by their contractual amounts. The Bank uses the same credit and collateral policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as for all other lending.

Additionally, the Company is also subject to a number of asserted and unasserted potential claims encountered in the normal course of business. In the opinion of the Company, neither the resolution of these claims nor the funding of these credit commitments will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operation or cash flows.

five full years of service. The benefits of the plan are based upon the employee’s years of service and average annual earnings for the highest five consecutive calendar years during the final ten year period of employment. Plan assets are primarily debt securities (including US Treasury and Agency securities, corporate notes and bonds), listed common stocks (including shares of AmeriServ Financial, Inc. common stock which is limited to 10% of the plan’s assets), mutual funds, and short-term cash equivalent instruments. The net periodic pension cost for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018 and 2017 were as follows (in thousands):

The service cost component of net periodic benefit cost is included in “Salaries and employee benefits” and all other components of net periodic benefit cost are included in “Other expense” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company implemented a soft freeze of its defined benefit pension plan to provide that non-union employees hired on or after January 1, 2013 and union employees hired on or after January 1, 2014 are not eligible to participate in the pension plan. Instead, such employees are eligible to participate in a qualified 401(k) plan. This change was made to help reduce pension costs in future periods.

Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments

The following disclosures establish a hierarchal disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observability utilized in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three broad levels defined within this hierarchy are as follows:

Level I: Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.

Level II: Pricing inputs are other than the quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities includes items for which quoted prices are available but traded less frequently and items that are fair-valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.

Level III: Assets and liabilities that have little to no pricing observability as of the reported date. These items do not have two-way markets and are measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

Assets and Liability Measured and Recorded on a Recurring Basis

Securities classified as available for sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quoted market spreads, cash flows, the US Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Assets Measured and Recorded on a Non-recurring Basis

Loans considered impaired are loans for which, based on current information and events, it is probable that the creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. As detailed in the allowance for loan loss footnote, impaired loans are reported at fair value of the underlying collateral if the repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Collateral values are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on observable market data which at times are discounted. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018, impaired loans with a carrying value of ~~$926,000 were reduced by a~~$12,000 had no specific valuation allowance ~~totaling $835,000~~ resulting in a net fair value of ~~$91,000.~~$12,000. At December 31, 2017, impaired loans with a carrying value of $1.8 million were reduced by a specific valuation allowance totaling $909,000 resulting in a net fair value of ~~$850,000.~~

$851,000.

Other real estate owned is measured at fair value based on appraisals, less estimated cost to sell. Valuations are periodically performed by management. Income and expenses from operations and changes in valuation allowance are included in the net expenses from OREO.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

For the Company, as for most financial institutions, approximately 90% of its assets and liabilities are considered financial instruments. Many of the Company’s financial instruments, however, lack an available trading market characterized by a willing buyer and willing seller engaging in an exchange transaction. Therefore, significant estimates and present value calculations were used by the Company for the purpose of this disclosure.

Fair values have been determined by the Company using independent third party valuations that use the best available data (Level 2) and an estimation methodology (Level 3) the Company believes is suitable for each category of financial instruments. Management believes that cash, cash equivalents, bank owned life insurance, regulatory stock, accrued interest receivable and payable, short term borrowings, and loans and deposits with floating interest rates have estimated fair values which approximate the recorded book balances.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Loans held for sale are priced individually at market rates on the day that the loan is locked for commitment with an investor. All loans in the held for sale account conform to Fannie Mae underwriting guidelines, with the specific intent of the loan being purchased by an investor at the predetermined rate structure. Loans in the held for sale account have specific delivery dates that must be executed to protect the pricing commitment (typically a 30, 45, or 60 day lock period).

The net loan portfolio has been valued using a present value discounted cash flow. The discount rate used in these calculations is based upon the treasury yield curve adjusted for non-interest operating costs, credit loss, current market prices and assumed prepayment risk. In accordance with ASU 2016-01, the discount rates used to determine fair value incorporate interest rate spreads that reflect factors such as liquidity, credit, and nonperformance risk of the loans.

The fair value of bank owned life insurance is based upon the cash surrender value of the underlying policies and matches the book value.

Deposits with stated maturities have been valued using a present value discounted cash flow with a discount rate approximating current market for similar assets and liabilities. Deposits with no stated maturities have an estimated fair value equal to both the amount payable on demand and the recorded book balance.

The fair value of all other borrowings is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rates are estimated using rates currently offered for similar instruments with similar remaining maturities.

The fair values of the fair value swaps used for interest rate risk management represents the amount the Company would have expected to receive or pay to terminate such agreements.

Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are financial instruments generally not subject to sale, and fair values are not readily available. The carrying value, represented by the net deferred fee arising from the unrecognized commitment, and the fair value, determined by discounting the remaining contractual fee over the term of the commitment using fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements with similar credit risk, is not considered material for disclosure. The contractual amounts of unfunded commitments are presented in Note 17.

Changes in assumptions or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on these estimated fair values. The Company’s remaining assets and liabilities which are not considered financial instruments have not been valued differently than has been customary under historical cost accounting.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (“M.D. & A.”)

…2018 ~~FIRST~~SECOND QUARTER SUMMARY OVERVIEW… AmeriServ reported ~~first~~second quarter 2018 earnings of ~~$1,767,000~~$1,744,000 or $0.10 per share. This is the Company’s second consecutive quarter with earnings per share ~~outdistancing~~of $0.10. This represents a 25.6% or $355,000 improvement over the ~~first~~second quarter of 2017 ~~when~~where net income ~~was $1,348,000~~totaled $1,389,000 or $0.07 per diluted common share. ~~The return on equity~~When combined with the results in the first quarter, ~~was~~AmeriServ has now surpassed the ~~best in over fifteen years. This supported the recently announced one half cent increase in the dividend to $0.02~~first six months of 2017 by 28.3% or $774,000, a gain of $0.04 per share. ~~A contributing factor~~

We are, of course, aware that there will be skeptics who will write these gains off solely to the ~~increased earnings was a reduction in the federal tax rate from 34% to 21%.~~

Asset quality continues to be strong, capital levels already meet the Basel III requirements, which are not mandatory until 2019. Net interest margins improved as the Fed rate increases began to take effect.

~~Recognizing the accelerated pace of change in 21~~^st century life, AmeriServ set forth a new financial service environment. In two locations, State College in Centre County and Richland Township in Cambria County, Pennsylvania, AmeriServ established two stateimpact of the ~~art financial centers. These centers can service commercial and consumer borrowers, they can totally accomplish a residential mortgage or a consumer~~new reduced tax rates. There is no question that tax rates are of great importance to our industry but there was much more happening at AmeriServ during the second quarter. For example, AmeriServ recorded the highest level of loan ~~and they can provide counsel and advice on wealth management and retirement planning. No longer must a customer search for counsel or advice, it is all there in~~interest revenue since the AmeriServ Financial Center. Any service, any product, or even the latest breakthrough in self-service, mobile banking can be made available to customers through the financial center. The AmeriServ Financial Center combines the best of self-service banking with the best of counsel and advice. AmeriServ has brought the financial institution to the customer.

~~Banking and wealth management is a dynamic business. We believe our improved performance in the first~~fourth quarter of ~~2018 was based~~2009. Concurrently, the Company reported the lowest level of troubled loans on ~~more than the tax legislation.~~record. While these positive trends were occurring, AmeriServ continued to lend over 90% of its deposit base to small and medium sized businesses and consumers in our markets. This percentage has consistently been 7 – 10% above AmeriServ’s peer banks. We believe it ~~was result~~is our responsibility to help build prosperous communities.

On yet another front, our wealth management subsidiary, AmeriServ Trust & Financial Services Company, is now responsible for managing and/or administrating over $2 billion in client assets. So as to help its clients even more, it opened a customer convenience office in busy downtown Greensburg, PA. This is the county seat of ~~our firm commitment~~Westmoreland County which is benefitting from the expansion of Pittsburgh further east. AmeriServ’s wealth management company also remains the fiduciary of The ERECT Fund which is very active in Pittsburgh rehabilitating older buildings to ~~making AmeriServ~~be occupied by the continuing growth in technology activities, such as robotics. The city of Pittsburgh has become somewhat of a 21^st ~~century company. It starts with a concern~~hub for ~~every shareholder and customer. There is a message~~new technology due to ~~shareholders~~the expertise resident at Carnegie Mellon University.

One of the foremost goals in our ~~improved tangible book value~~strategic direction is to emphasize shareholder return. After reviewing this series of positive developments thus far in 2018, the Board unanimously approved another common stock repurchase plan. We have the approval of the regulatory authorities to buy back up to 3% or 540,000 shares of AmeriServ common stock. If completed, this will reduce the number of outstanding shares below 18 million thus causing every remaining shareholder to own a larger portion of AmeriServ.

Now a comment on the business of banking. You have probably seen the reports of lagging bank loan demand around the nation. Certainly we experienced the usual cold and instormy winter and we also noted some confusion among commercial enterprises as to the details of the new tax law. But loans at AmeriServ have been growing every month since March 2018. Deposit totals have been fluctuating but continue to remain near $1 billion as they have throughout 2017 and now 2018.

This series of positive results, and the announcement of another stock repurchase program, suggest a positive potential for AmeriServ. Rest assured there will be no “bet the bank” strategies. We will continue to seek to balance risk with return as we continue to share the rewards with our ~~increased dividend. There is a message to our customers in our adopting the community financial center service format.~~

The Company reported ~~first~~second quarter 2018 net income of ~~$1,767,000,~~$1,744,000, or $0.10 per diluted common share. This ~~represented~~earnings performance was a ~~$0.03,~~$355,000, or ~~42.9%~~25.6%, ~~increase in earnings per share~~improvement from the ~~first~~second quarter of 2017 where net income totaled ~~$1,348,000,~~$1,389,000, or $0.07 per diluted common share. The improved earnings in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2018 ~~growth~~ resulted from a combination of lower income tax expense, ~~positive operating leverage,~~outstanding asset quality and effective capital management.

The Company also announced that its Board of Directors declared a $0.02 per share quarterly common stock cash dividend. This new quarterly dividend amount represents a 33% increase from the previous $0.015 per share quarterly dividend. The cash dividend is payable May 21, 2018 to shareholders of record on May 7, 2018. This increased cash dividend represents an approximate 2.0% annualized yield using a recent common stock price of $4.10 and represents a payout ratio of 20% based upon the Company’s reported first quarter 2018 earnings per share of $0.10.

…NET INTEREST INCOME AND MARGIN… The Company’s net interest income represents the amount by which interest income on average earning assets exceeds interest paid on average interest bearing liabilities. Net interest income is a primary source of the Company’s earnings, and it is effected by interest rate fluctuations as well as changes in the amount and mix of average earning assets and average interest bearing liabilities. The following table compares the Company’s net interest income performance for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2018 to the ~~first~~second quarter of 2017 (in thousands, except percentages):

The Company’s net interest income in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2018 ~~increased~~decreased by ~~$27,000,~~$41,000, or ~~0.3%~~0.5%, from the prior year’s ~~first~~second quarter. The ~~Company’s net interest margin of 3.29% for the first quarter of 2018 was two basis points higher than the net interest margin of 3.27% for the first quarter 2017. The 2018 increase~~decrease in net interest income ~~and the improved net interest margin performance are the~~is a result of a lower level of total earning assets. Total average earning assets decreased in the second quarter of 2018 by $8.4 million, or 0.8%. The decrease in earning assets occurred in the loan portfolio as loan pay-offs exceeded new loan production during 2018. This more than offset continued growth in investment securities as management took advantage of the higher interest rate environment in 2018 to purchase additional securities and increase the size of the investment securities portfolio, a change in the mix of total investment securities and the positive impact from the higher interest rate environment. The growth of investment securities offset a decrease in the balance of total loans as total average earning assets were relatively stable compared to the first quarter of 2017.portfolio. Specifically, total investment securities averaged ~~$177~~$183 million in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2018 which was ~~$8.9~~$9.7 million, or ~~5.3%~~5.6%, higher than the ~~$168~~$173 million average for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2017. Total loans averaged ~~$881~~$883 million for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2018 which was ~~$8.4~~$17.5 million, or ~~0.9%~~1.9%, lower than the 2017 ~~first~~second quarter average. ~~Also favorably impacting~~The Company’s net interest ~~income~~margin was 3.28% for the ~~Company continuing to limit increases in its cost~~second quarter representing an improvement of ~~funds through controlled but competitive deposit pricing.~~

one basis point from the prior year’s second quarter.

The growth in the investment securities portfolio is the result of ~~a continuation~~additional purchases of ~~the~~federal agency mortgage backed securities. Also, management continues its portfolio diversification strategy ~~that management implemented last year, which included the diversification of the mix of the investment securities~~ through purchases of high quality corporate and taxable municipal securities. This revised strategy for securities purchases was facilitated by the increase in national interest rates and resulted in improved opportunities to purchase additional securities and grow the portfolio. As a result, interest income on investments increased between the ~~first~~second quarter of 2018 and the ~~first~~second quarter of 2017 by ~~$207,000,~~$205,000, or ~~17.4%~~16.1%. The combination of a higher level of early loan payoffs and a slowdown in loan production, particularly earlier this year, resulted in the decrease in the average balance of the loan portfolio. ~~Total~~However, commercial loan production ~~was negatively impacted in~~increased during the ~~fourth quarter~~latter part of 2017 because of the uncertainty that existed in the market during this time from potential borrowers regarding the timing that corporate tax reform would be enacted. Although loan pipelines grew and are currently strong, the fourth quarter 2017 slowdown in loan production carried forward into the first quarter of 2018 and, along with the increased loan pre-payment activity, resulted in the total portfolio demonstrating a decrease since last year’s first quarter. The Company expects that its loan portfolio will resume growth in the second quarter of 2018 resulting in the total loans outstanding being comparable between years on an end of period basis. As a result of the strength of the current loan pipelines and the positive late second quarter momentum, the Company expects that loan portfolio growth will continue in the second half of 2018. ~~However, even with~~This second quarter growth occurred primarily in commercial real estate loans and commercial/industrial loans which together comprise approximately 72% of the ~~decrease in~~Company’s total loan ~~volume,~~portfolio. Even though total average loans have decreased since last year, loan interest income increased by ~~$262,000,~~$347,000, or ~~2.7%~~3.5%, between the ~~first~~second quarter of 2018 and the ~~first~~second quarter of 2017. The higher loan interest income ~~resulted from~~reflects new loans originating at higher yields ~~due to the higher interest rates and also reflected~~as well as the upward repricing of certain loans tied to LIBOR or the prime rate as both of these indices have moved up with the Federal Reserve’s decision to increase the target federal funds interest rate.

in the second quarter of 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017.

The table that follows provides an analysis of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the three month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018 and ~~March 31,~~ 2017 setting forth (i) average assets, liabilities, and stockholders’ equity, (ii) interest income earned on interest earning assets and interest expense paid on interest bearing liabilities, (iii) average yields earned on interest earning assets and average rates paid on interest bearing liabilities, (iv) the Company’s interest rate spread (the difference between the average yield earned on interest earning assets and the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities), and (v) the Company’s net interest margin (net interest income as a percentage of average total interest earning assets). For purposes of these tables, loan balances do include non-accrual loans, and interest income on loans includes loan fees or amortization of such fees which have been deferred, as well as interest recorded on certain non-accrual loans as cash is received. Additionally, a tax rate of 21% is used to compute tax-equivalent interest income and ~~yields.~~

yields during 2018, while a tax rate of 34% was used for 2017.

…PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES… The Company recorded a $50,000 provision for loan losses in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2018 compared to a ~~$225,000~~$325,000 provision for loan losses in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2017. The lower 2018 provision reflects our overall strong asset quality, the successful workout of several criticized loans, and reduced loan portfolio balances. The Company experienced net loan charge-offs of ~~$332,000,~~$461,000, or ~~0.15%~~0.21% of total loans, in 2018 compared to net loan charge-offs of ~~$77,000,~~$14,000, or ~~0.04%~~0.01% of total loans, in 2017. The higher 2018 net loan charge-offs reflect the final work-out of several non-performing loans on which reserves had previously been established. The Company presently expects that net charge-offs will decline in the second half of 2018. Overall, the Company continued to maintain strong asset quality as its nonperforming assets totaled ~~$2.2~~$1.2 million, or only ~~0.25%~~0.13% of total loans, at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018. In summary, the allowance for loan losses provided ~~460%~~821% coverage of non-performing assets, and ~~1.14%~~1.07% of total loans, at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018, compared to 337% coverage of non-performing assets, and 1.15% of total loans, at December 31, 2017.

a ~~$145,000~~$301,000, or ~~2.4%~~5.1%, increase in salaries & benefits expense due to higher salaries and incentive compensation more than offsetting reduced pension expense and health care costs. Health care costs are lower this year as our union employees changed healthcare providers as per terms of the new collective bargaining agreement;

a $64,000, or 3.6%, decrease in other expenses due to reduced telephone costs and Pennsylvania shares tax expense.

…INCOME TAX EXPENSE… The Company recorded an income tax expense of ~~$446,000,~~$435,000, or an effective tax rate of ~~20.1%~~20.0%, in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2018. This compares to an income tax expense of ~~$625,000,~~$623,000, or an effective tax rate of ~~31.7%~~31.0%, for the ~~first~~second quarter of 2017. The lower effective tax rate and income tax expense in the first quarter of 2018 reflects the benefits of corporate tax reform as a result of the enactment of the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” late in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Diluted earnings per share 0.19 0.15
Return on average assets (annualized) 0.61% 0.47%
Return on average equity (annualized) 7.42% 5.77%
For the six-month time period ended June 30, 2018, the Company reported second quarter 2018 net income of $3,511,000, or $0.19 per diluted common share. This earnings performance was a $774,000, or 28.3%, improvement from the six-month period of 2017 where net income totaled $2,737,000, or $0.15 per diluted common share. The improved earnings in the first six months of 2018 resulted from a combination of lower income tax expense, outstanding asset quality and effective capital management.
…NET INTEREST INCOME AND MARGIN… The following table compares the Company’s net interest income performance for the first six months of 2018 to the first six months of 2017 (in thousands, except percentages):

N/M — not meaningful
The Company’s net interest income in the first six months of 2018 decreased by $14,000, or 0.1%, when compared to the first six months of 2017. The Company’s net interest margin of 3.28% for the first half of 2018 improved by 1 basis point from the prior year’s first six-month time period. The decrease in net interest income is a result of a lower level of total earning assets. Total average earning assets decreased in the first half of 2018 by $4.4 million, or 0.4%. The decrease in earning assets occurred in the loan portfolio as loan pay-offs exceeded new loan production during 2018. This more than offset continued growth in investment securities as management took advantage of the higher interest rate environment in 2018 to purchase additional securities and increase the size of the investment securities portfolio. Specifically, total investment securities averaged $180 million in the first six months of 2018 which was $9.3 million, or 5.4%, higher than the $171 million average for the first six months of 2017. Total loans averaged $882 million in the first half of 2018 which was $13.0 million, or 1.4%, lower than the 2017 first six-month average. The growth in the investment securities portfolio is the result of additional purchases of federal agency mortgage backed securities. Also, management continues its portfolio diversification strategy through purchases of high quality corporate and taxable municipal securities. As a result, interest income on investments increased between the first six months of 2018 and the first six months of 2017 by $412,000, or 16.7%. The combination of a higher level of early loan payoffs and a slowdown in loan production, particularly earlier this year, resulted in the decrease in the average balance of the loan portfolio. However, commercial loan production increased during the latter part of the second quarter of 2018 resulting in the total loans outstanding being comparable between years on an end of period basis. This second quarter growth occurred primarily in commercial real estate loans and commercial/industrial loans which together comprise approximately 72% of the Company’s total loan portfolio. Even though total average loans have decreased since last year, loan interest income increased by $609,000, or 3.1%, between the first half of 2018 and the first half of 2017. The higher loan interest income reflects new loans originating at higher yields as

TABLE OF CONTENTS

…PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES… The Company recorded a $100,000 provision for loan losses in the first six months of 2018 compared to a $550,000 provision for loan losses in the first six months of 2017, or a decrease of $450,000 between periods. The lower 2018 loan loss provision reflects our overall strong asset quality, the successful workout of several criticized loans, and reduced loan portfolio balances. For the first six months of 2018, the Company experienced net loan charge-offs of $793,000, or 0.18%, of total loans, compared to net loan charge-offs of $91,000, or 0.02%, in 2017. The higher 2018 net loan charge-offs reflect the final work-out of several non-performing loans on which reserves had previously been established. The Company presently expects that net charge-offs will decline in the second half of 2018. Overall, the Company continued to maintain strong asset quality as its nonperforming assets totaled $1.2 million, or only 0.13% of total loans, at June 30, 2018.

…NON-INTEREST INCOME… Non-interest income for the first six months of 2018 totaled $7.3 million and nearly matched the 2017 level, decreasing slightly by $1,000. Factors contributing to this slightly lower level of non-interest income for the first six months included:

•

a $323,000 increase in Wealth Management fees was primarily due to the Company benefitting from increased market values for assets under management in 2018 and stronger sales of insurance related products by its financial services professionals;

•

a $218,000 increase in other income primarily due a $156,000 gain realized on the sale of certain equity securities that the Company owned from a previous acquisition and higher interchange fees;

•

a $207,000 reduction in the net realized gain/loss on investment securities as the market value of sold securities decreased since last year due to the higher interest rate environment. Management viewed the gain recognized on the sale of equity securities, mentioned above in the second bullet, as an opportunity to rid the investment securities portfolio of certain investments having a low yield and a small balance;

•

a $186,000 decrease in revenue from bank owned life insurance (BOLI) after the Company received a death claim in 2017 and there was no such claim this year; and

•

a combined $130,000 decrease in net gains on loans sales into the secondary market and mortgage related fees due to lower production and reduced refinance activity of residential mortgage loans;

…NON-INTEREST EXPENSE… Non-interest expense for the first half of 2018 totaled $20.4 million and increased by only $28,000, or 0.1%, from the prior year. Factors contributing to the slightly higher non-interest expense in the quarter included:

•

a $446,000, or 3.8%, increase in salaries & benefits expense due to higher salaries and incentive compensation as a result of the typical annual salary merit increases and additional incentives paid primarily within our Wealth Management division due to the increased level of fee income mentioned previously;

•

a $179,000, or 6.8%, decrease in professional fees due to reduced legal costs and lower expense for outsourced professional services;

•

a combined $116,000 reduction in occupancy & equipment costs is primarily attributable to the Company’s ongoing efforts to carefully manage and contain non-interest expense. Specifically, a branch office closure in Cambria County along with a branch consolidation in the State College market resulted in reduced rent expense and other occupancy related costs; and

•

a $128,000, or 3.7%, decrease in other expenses due to reduced telephone costs and Pennsylvania shares tax expense.

…INCOME TAX EXPENSE… The Company recorded an income tax expense of $881,000, or an effective tax rate of 20.1%, in the first six months of 2018. This compares to the income tax expense of $1,248,000, or an effective tax rate of 31.3% for the first six months of 2017. The lower effective tax rate and income tax expense in the first quarter of 2018 reflects the benefits of corporate tax reform as a result of the enactment of the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” late in the fourth quarter of 2017.

which resulted in lower employee expense due to the closure of one branch office and reduced health care and pension costs. The branch office that closed along with our efforts to reduce and control expenses resulted in occupancy & equipment costs and miscellaneous expenses declining between periods. The Retail banking segment also benefitted from the recognition of a lower loan loss provision in 2018 and the lower corporate income tax rate that resulted from the enactment of the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” which caused a reduction in income tax expense. Slightly offsetting these favorable items was a decrease in net interest income due to a lower level of residential real estate loan ~~origninations~~originations in 2018 combined with the immediate upward repricing of money market deposit accounts because of the increases to the Federal Funds Rate.

The Company recorded a ~~$50,000~~$100,000 provision for loan losses in the first ~~three~~six months of 2018 compared to a ~~$225,000~~$550,000 provision for loan losses in the first ~~three~~six months of 2017 or a decrease of ~~$175,000~~$450,000 million between periods. The loan loss provision in 2018 reflects our overall strong asset quality, the successful workout of several criticized loans, and reduced loan portfolio balances.

…LIQUIDITY…The Company’s liquidity position has been strong during the last several years. Our core retail deposit base has been more than adequate to fund the Company’s operations. Payments and prepayments from the loan portfolios, as well as, cash flow from maturities, prepayments and amortization of securities were also used to help fund new loan originations. We strive to operate our loan to deposit ratio in a range of 80% to 100%. For the first ~~three~~six months of 2018, the Company’s loan to deposit ratio has averaged

~~TABLE OF CONTENTS~~

~~91.8%~~ 92.07%. We are optimistic that we can increase the loan to deposit ratio in 2018 given commercial loan pipelines, continued growth from our loan production offices and our focus on small business lending.

Liquidity can be analyzed by utilizing the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Cash and cash equivalents ~~decreased~~increased by ~~$3.6 million~~$833,000 from December 31, 2017 to ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018, due to ~~$16.9~~$10.7 million of cash ~~used~~provided in financing activities ~~partially offset by $9.7~~and $4.0 million of cash provided by ~~investing~~operating activities ~~and $3.6~~more than offsetting $13.9 million ~~provided~~of cash used by ~~operating~~investing activities. Within financing activities, short term borrowed funds ~~decreased~~increased by ~~$12.2~~$33.8 million while total deposit balances decreased by ~~$3.7~~$19.8 million. Within investing activities, cash advanced for new loan fundings and purchases (excluding residential mortgages sold in the secondary market) totaled ~~$30.7~~$86.4 million and was ~~$14.3~~$2.8 million ~~lower~~higher than the ~~$45.0~~$83.6 million of cash received from loan principal payments and participations sold. Also, cash utilized for new investment security purchases totaled ~~$14.0~~$24.9 million which more than exceeded cash provided from investment security maturities and sales of ~~$9.1~~$15.3 million. Within operating activities, sales of residential mortgage loans of ~~$6.4~~$14.5 million ~~more than~~nearly offset new residential mortgage loan originations of ~~$4.1~~$14.8 million. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018, the Company had immediately available ~~$376~~$314 million of overnight borrowing capacity at the FHLB and $35 million of unsecured federal funds lines with correspondent banks.

The holding company had ~~$9.5~~$9.2 million of cash, short-term investments, and investment securities at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018. Additionally, dividend payments from our subsidiaries also provide ongoing cash to the holding company. At ~~March 31, 2017,~~June 30, 2018, our subsidiary Bank had ~~$3.8~~$4.9 million of cash available for immediate dividends to the holding company under applicable regulatory formulas. Management follows a policy that limits dividend payments from the Trust Company to 75% of annual net income. Overall, we believe that the holding company has strong liquidity to meet its trust preferred debt service requirements, its subordinated debt interest payments, its increased common stock dividend, and support ~~any~~the common stock repurchase program.

…CAPITAL RESOURCES…The Bank meaningfully exceeds all regulatory capital ratios for each of the periods presented and is considered well capitalized. The Company’s common equity tier 1 ratio was ~~10.26%~~9.99%, the tier 1 capital ratio was ~~11.52%~~11.20%, and the total capital ratio was ~~13.45%~~13.01% at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018. The Company’s tier 1 leverage was ~~9.54%~~9.61% at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018. We anticipate that we will maintain our strong capital ratios throughout the remainder of 2018. Capital generated from earnings will be utilized to pay the common stock cash dividend and will also support controlled balance sheet growth. There is a particular emphasis on ensuring that the subsidiary bank has appropriate levels of capital to support its non-owner occupied commercial real estate loan concentration which stood at ~~337%~~345% of regulatory capital at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

On ~~January 24, 2017,~~May 17, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a new common stock repurchase program which ~~called~~calls for AmeriServ Financial Inc. to buy back up to 5%3%, or approximately ~~945,000~~540,000 shares, of its outstanding common stock during the next 1812 months. The ~~shares were purchased~~authorized repurchases will be made from time to time in either the open market or through privately negotiated ~~or block~~ transactions. ~~This common stock repurchase program did not obligate~~The timing, volume and nature of share repurchases will be at the ~~Company to acquire any specific number~~sole discretion of ~~shares~~management, dependent on market conditions, applicable securities laws, and ~~could have been modified,~~other factors, and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. ~~During~~No assurance can be given that any particular amount of common stock will be repurchased. This buyback program may be modified, extended or terminated by the Board of Directors at any time. At June 30, 2018, the Company had approximately 18 million common shares outstanding.

In the first quarter of 2018, the Company completed a common stock repurchase program where it bought back 945,000 shares or 5% of its common stock over a 14-month period. Specifically, during the first three months of 2018, the Company was able to repurchase 105,663 shares of its common stock and return $445,000 million of capital to its shareholders through this program. This represented the completion of the most recently authorized buyback program as all 945,000 common stock shares have been repurchased and a total of $3.8 million was returned to our shareholders over the past 14 months. As of March 31, 2018, the Company had approximately 18.0 million shares of its common stock outstanding.

On January 1, 2015, U.S. federal banking agencies implemented the new Basel III capital standards, which establish the minimum capital levels to be considered well-capitalized and revise the prompt corrective action requirements under banking regulations. The revisions from the previous standards include a revised definition of capital, the introduction of a minimum Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio and changed risk weightings for certain assets. The implementation of the new rules will be phased in over this four-year period ending January 1, 2019 with minimum capital requirements becoming increasingly more strict each year of the transition. The new minimum capital requirements for each ratio, both, initially on January 1, 2015 and at the end of the transition on January 1, 2019, are as follows: A common equity tier 1 capital ratio of 4.50%

~~TABLE OF CONTENTS~~

initially and 7.00% at January 1, 2019; a tier 1 capital ratio of 6.00% and 8.50%; a total capital ratio of 8.00% and 10.50%; and a tier 1 leverage ratio of 5.00% and 5.00%. Under the new rules, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions (including dividend payments and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers), a banking organization must hold a capital conservation buffer above its minimum risk-based capital requirements, which increases over the transition period, from 0.625% of total risk weighted assets in 2016 to 2.50% in 2019. The Company continues to be committed to maintaining strong capital levels that exceed regulatory requirements while also supporting balance sheet growth and providing a return to our shareholders.

…REGULATORY UPDATE… The Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act (the “Act”), which was designed to ease certain restrictions imposed by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, was enacted into law on May 24, 2018. Most of the changes made by the Act can be grouped into five general areas: mortgage lending; certain regulatory relief for “community” banks; enhanced consumer protections in specific areas, including subjecting credit reporting agencies to additional requirements; certain regulatory relief for large financial institutions, including increasing the threshold at which institutions are classified a systemically important financial institutions (from $50 billion to $250 billion) and therefore subject to stricter oversight, and revising the rules for larger institution stress testing; and certain changes to federal securities regulations designed to promote capital formation. Some of the key provisions of the Act as it relates to community banks and bank holding companies include, but are not limited to: (i) designating mortgages held in portfolio as “qualified mortgages” for banks with less than $10 billion in assets, subject to certain documentation and product limitations; (ii) exempting banks with less than $10 billion in assets from Volcker Rule requirements relating to proprietary trading; (iii) simplifying capital calculations for banks with less than $10 billion in assets by requiring federal banking agencies to establish a community bank leverage ratio of tangible equity to average consolidate assets not less than 8% or more than 10% and provide that banks that maintain tangible equity in excess of such ratio will be deemed to be in compliance with risk-based capital and leverage requirements; (iv) assisting smaller banks with obtaining stable funding by providing an exception for reciprocal deposits from FDIC restrictions on acceptance of brokered deposits; (v) raising the eligibility for use of short-form Call Reports from $1 billion to $5 billion in assets; and (vi) clarifying definitions pertaining to high volatility commercial real estate loans (HVCRE), which require higher capital allocations, so that only loans with increased risk are subject to higher risk weightings. The Company continues to analyze the changes implemented by the Act and further rulemaking from federal banking regulators, but, at this time, does not believe that such changes will materially impact the Company’s business, operations, or financial results.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

…INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY…The following table presents an analysis of the sensitivity inherent in the Company’s net interest income and market value of portfolio equity. The interest rate scenarios in the table compare the Company’s base forecast, which was prepared using a flat interest rate scenario, to scenarios that reflect immediate interest rate changes of 100 and 200 basis points. Note that we suspended the 200 basis point downward rate shock since it has little value due to the absolute low level of interest rates. Each rate scenario contains unique prepayment and repricing assumptions that are applied to the Company’s existing balance sheet that was developed under the flat interest rate scenario.

Interest Rate Scenario	Variability of Net Interest Income		Change in Market Value of Portfolio Equity
200bp increase		1.2%		15.6%
100bp increase		0.9		9.1
100bp decrease		(1.3)		(12.5)

Interest Rate Scenario Variability of Net
Interest Income Change in Market Value
of Portfolio Equity
200bp increase 2.1 % 19.5 %
100bp increase 1.3 11.1
100bp decrease (1.4 ) (15.4 )

The Company believes that its overall interest rate risk position is well controlled. The variability of net interest income is positive in the upward rate shocks due to the Company’s short duration investment securities portfolio, the scheduled repricing of loans tied to LIBOR or prime, and the extension of a portion of borrowed funds. Also, the Company expects that it will not have to reprice its core deposit accounts up as quickly as interest rates rise. The variability of net interest income is negative in the 100 basis point downward rate scenario as the Company has more exposure to assets repricing downward to a greater extent than liabilities due to the absolute low level of interest rates with the fed funds rate currently at approximately ~~1.25%~~2.00%. The market value of portfolio equity increases in the upward rate shocks due to the improved value of the Company’s core deposit base. Negative variability of market value of portfolio equity occurs in the downward rate shock due to a reduced value for core deposits.

…OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS…The Company incurs off-balance sheet risks in the normal course of business in order to meet the financing needs of its customers. These risks derive from commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such commitments and standby letters of credit involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The Company had various outstanding commitments to extend credit approximating ~~$180.0~~$192.5 million and standby letters of credit of ~~$10.0~~$10.1 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to these commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by their contractual amounts. The Company uses the same credit and collateral policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as for all other lending.

…CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES…The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and conform to general practices within the banking industry. Accounting and reporting policies for the allowance for loan losses, goodwill, income taxes, and investment securities are deemed critical because they involve the use of estimates and require significant management judgments. Application of assumptions different than those used by the Company could result in material changes in the Company’s financial position or results of operation.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

ACCOUNT — Allowance for Loan Losses
BALANCE SHEET REFERENCE — Allowance for loan losses
INCOME STATEMENT REFERENCE — Provision for loan losses
DESCRIPTION

~~TABLE OF CONTENTS~~

The allowance for loan losses is calculated with the objective of maintaining reserve levels believed by management to be sufficient to absorb estimated probable credit losses. Management’s determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on periodic evaluations of the credit portfolio and other relevant factors. However, this quarterly evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates, including, among others, likelihood of customer default, loss given default, exposure at default, the amounts and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, value of collateral, estimated losses on consumer loans and residential mortgages, and general amounts for historical loss experience. This process also considers economic conditions, uncertainties in estimating losses and inherent risks in the various credit portfolios. All of these factors may be susceptible to significant change. Also, the allocation of the allowance for credit losses to specific loan pools is based on historical loss trends and management’s judgment concerning those trends.

Commercial and commercial real estate loans are the largest category of credits and the most sensitive to changes in assumptions and judgments underlying the determination of the allowance for loan loss. Approximately ~~$7.5~~$7.3 million, or 76%, of the total allowance for loan losses at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018 has been allocated to these two loan categories. This allocation also considers other relevant factors such as actual versus estimated losses, economic trends, delinquencies, levels of non-performing and TDR loans, concentrations of credit, trends in loan volume, experience and depth of management, examination and audit results, effects of any changes in lending policies and trends in policy, financial information and documentation exceptions. To the extent actual outcomes differ from management estimates, additional provision for loan losses may be required that would adversely impact earnings in future periods.

ACCOUNT — Goodwill
BALANCE SHEET REFERENCE — Goodwill
INCOME STATEMENT REFERENCE — Goodwill impairment
DESCRIPTION

The Company considers our accounting policies related to goodwill to be critical because the assumptions or judgment used in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in past acquisitions are subjective and complex. As a result, changes in these assumptions or judgment could have a significant impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

The fair value of acquired assets and liabilities, including the resulting goodwill, was based either on quoted market prices or provided by other third party sources, when available. When third party information was not available, estimates were made in good faith by management primarily through the use of internal cash flow modeling techniques. The assumptions that were used in the cash flow modeling were subjective and are susceptible to significant changes. The Company routinely utilizes the services of an independent third party that is regarded within the banking industry as an expert in valuing core deposits to monitor the ongoing value and changes in the Company’s core deposit base. These core deposit valuation updates are based upon specific data provided from statistical analysis of the Company’s own deposit behavior to estimate the duration of these non-maturity deposits combined with market interest rates and other economic factors.

Goodwill arising from business combinations represents the value attributable to unidentifiable intangible elements in the business acquired. The Company’s goodwill relates to value inherent in the banking and wealth management businesses, and the value is dependent upon the Company’s ability to provide quality, cost-effective services in the face of free competition from other market participants on a regional basis. This ability relies upon continuing investments in processing systems, the development of value-added service features and the ease of use of the Company’s services. As such, goodwill value is supported ultimately by revenue that is driven by the volume of business transacted and the loyalty of the Company’s deposit and customer base over a longer time frame. The quality and value of a Company’s assets is also an important factor to consider when performing goodwill impairment testing. A decline in earnings as a result of a lack of growth or the inability to deliver cost-effective value added services over sustained periods can lead to impairment of goodwill.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Goodwill which has an indefinite useful life is tested for impairment at least annually and written down and charged to results of operations only in periods in which the recorded value is more than the estimated fair value.

~~TABLE OF CONTENTS~~

ACCOUNT — Income Taxes
BALANCE SHEET REFERENCE — Net deferred tax asset
INCOME STATEMENT REFERENCE — Provision for income tax expense
DESCRIPTION

The provision for income taxes is the sum of income taxes both currently payable and deferred. The changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon the changes in differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the basis of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates that management estimates will be in effect when the differences reverse. This income tax review is completed on a quarterly basis.

In relation to recording the provision for income taxes, management must estimate the future tax rates applicable to the reversal of tax differences, make certain assumptions regarding whether tax differences are permanent or temporary and the related timing of the expected reversal. Also, estimates are made as to whether taxable operating income in future periods will be sufficient to fully recognize any gross deferred tax assets. If recovery is not likely, we must increase our provision for taxes by recording a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets that we estimate will not ultimately be recoverable. Alternatively, we may make estimates about the potential usage of deferred tax assets that decrease our valuation allowances. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018, we believe that all of the deferred tax assets recorded on our balance sheet will ultimately be recovered and that no valuation allowances were needed.

In addition, the calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations. We recognize liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on our estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. If we ultimately determine that payment of these amounts is unnecessary, we reverse the liability and recognize a tax benefit during the period in which we determine that the liability is no longer necessary. We record an additional charge in our provision for taxes in the period in which we determine that the recorded tax liability is less than we expect the ultimate assessment to be.

ACCOUNT — Investment Securities
BALANCE SHEET REFERENCE — Investment securities
INCOME STATEMENT REFERENCE — Net realized gains (losses) on investment securities
DESCRIPTION

Available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities are reviewed quarterly for possible other-than-temporary impairment. The review includes an analysis of the facts and circumstances of each individual investment such as the severity of loss, the length of time the fair value has been below cost, the expectation for that security’s performance, the creditworthiness of the issuer and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the security to recovery. A decline in value that is considered to be other-than-temporary is recorded as a loss within non-interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2018, the unrealized losses in the available-for-sale security portfolio were comprised of securities issued by government agencies or government sponsored agencies and certain high quality corporate and taxable municipal securities. The Company believes the unrealized losses are primarily a result of increases in market yields from the time of purchase. In general, as market yields rise, the value of securities will decrease; as market yields fall, the fair value of securities will increase. Management generally views changes in fair value caused by changes in interest rates as temporary; therefore, these securities have not been classified as other-than-temporarily impaired. Management has also concluded that based on current information we expect to continue to receive scheduled interest payments as well as the entire principal balance. Furthermore, management does not intend to sell these securities and does not believe it will be required to sell these securities before they recover in value.
