In 1975, the Bank adopted a federal thrift charter and in October 2014 converted to a Montana chartered commercial bank and became a member bank in the Federal Reserve System.

In March 2021, the Bank established a subsidiary, Opportunity Housing Fund, LLC ("OHF"), to invest in Low-Income Housing Tax Credit ("LIHTC") projects. The LIHTC program is designed to encourage capital investment in construction and rehabilitation of low-income housing. Tax credits are allowable over a 10-year period. During the year ended December 31, 2021, OHF made initial investments in two LIHTC projects. Investments in LIHTC projects are included in other assets on the statement of financial condition and totaled $1,237,000 and $935,000 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

In September 2021, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger ("Merger Agreement") with First Community Bancorp, Inc. ("FCB"), a Montana corporation, and FCB's wholly-owned subsidiary, First Community Bank, a Montana chartered commercial bank. The Merger Agreement provided that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, FCB would merge with and into Eagle, with Eagle continuing as the surviving corporation. The merger closed on April 30, 2022. First Community Bank operated nine branches in Ashland, Culbertson, Froid, Glasgow, Helena, Hinsdale, Three Forks and Wolf Point, Montana. 

On January 1, 2020, the Company acquired Western Holding Company of Wolf Point, ("WHC"), a Montana corporation, and WHC's wholly-owned subsidiary, Western Bank of Wolf Point ("WB"), a Montana chartered commercial bank. The acquisition included one branch in Wolf Point, Montana. In addition, Western Financial Services, Inc. ("WFS") was acquired through the WHC merger. WFS facilitates deferred payment contracts for customers that produce agricultural products.

 

The Bank currently has 30 full-service branches. The Bank’s principal business is accepting deposits and, together with funds generated from operations and borrowings, investing in various types of loans and securities. The Bank also operated certain branches under the names Dutton State Bank, Farmers State Bank of Denton and The State Bank of Townsend.

NOTE 2. MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

Effective April 30, 2022 Eagle completed its previously announced merger with FCB. The acquisition closed after receipt of approvals from regulatory authorities, approval of FCB shareholders and the satisfaction of other closing conditions. The total consideration paid was $38,577,000 and included cash consideration of $10,226,000 and common stock issued of $28,351,000.

This transaction was accounted for under the year ended December 31, 2016.acquisition method of accounting.

All of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recognized at their acquisition-date fair value, while transaction costs and restructuring costs associated with the business combinations were expensed as incurred. Determining the fair value of assets and liabilities is a complicated process involving significant judgment regarding methods and assumptions used to calculate estimated fair values. The excess of the acquisition consideration over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, if any, is allocated to goodwill. The goodwill recorded is not deductible for federal income tax purposes.

 

The Company evaluated subsequent eventsfollowing table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, consideration paid and the resulting goodwill.

 $13,942 

Goodwill recorded for potential recognition and/or disclosure through November 13, 2017the FCB acquisition during the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $13,942,000.

FCB investments were written down an additional $4,559,000 to fair value on the date of acquisition based on market prices obtained from an independent third party.

For acquisitions, the unauditedfair value analysis of the loan portfolios resulted in a valuation adjustment for each loan based on an amortization schedule of expected cash flow. Individual amortization schedules were used for each loan over a certain amount and those with specifically identified loss exposure. The remainder of the loans were grouped by type and risk rating into loan pools (based on loan type, fixed or variable interest rate, revolving or term payments and risk rating). Yield inputs for the amortization schedules included contractual interest rates, estimated prepayment speeds, liquidity adjustments and market yields. Credit inputs for the amortization schedules included probability of payment default, loss given default rates and individually identified loss exposure.             

The total accretable discount on FCB acquired loans was $5,416,000 as of April 30, 2022. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, accretion of the loan discount was $333,000 and $1,060,000, respectively. The remaining accretable loan discount was $4,352,000 as of September 30, 2022. Three impaired loans were acquired through the FCB acquisition with insignificant balances as of April 30, 2022.

Fair value adjustments recorded for FCB related to premises and equipment were insignificant overall. The Company used independent third party appraisals in the determination of the fair value of acquired properties.

Core deposit intangible assets of $7,004,000 were recorded for FCB and are being amortized using an accelerated method over the estimated useful lives of the related deposits of 10 years from date of acquisition. For acquisitions, the core deposit intangible value is a function of the difference between the cost of the acquired core deposits and the alternative cost of funds. These cash flow streams were discounted to present value. The fair value of other deposit accounts acquired were valued by estimating future cash flows to be received or paid from individual or homogenous groups of assets and liabilities and then discounting those cash flows to a present value using rates of return that were available in financial markets for similar financial instruments on or near the acquisition date.

Management evaluatesUnrealized losses associated with investments are believed to be caused by changes in market interest rates or the widening of market spreads subsequent to the initial purchase of the securities forand not due to concerns regarding the underlying credit of the issuers or the underlying collateral. The Company does not intend to sell the securities, and it is not likely to be required to sell these securities prior to maturity. Based on the Company's evaluation of these securities, no other-than-temporary impairment at least quarterly,was recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and more frequently when economic2021, respectively or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the length of timenine months ended September 30, 2022 and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.2021, respectively. As of September 30, 20172022 and December 31, 2016,2021, there were, respectively, 68400 and 9743 securities in an unrealized loss positionpositions that were considered to be temporarily impaired and therefore an impairment charge has not been recorded.

Included in the above are loans guaranteed by U.S. government agencies totaling $26,983,000 and $25,730,000 at September 30, 2017, 44 U.S. government2022 and agency securities and municipal obligations had unrealized losses with aggregate depreciation of approximately 1.54% from the Company’s amortized cost basis of these securities. At December 31, 2016, 70 U.S. government and agency securities and municipal obligations had unrealized losses with aggregate depreciation of approximately 3.19% from the Company’s amortized cost basis of these securities. These unrealized losses are principally due to changes in interest rates and credit spreads. In analyzing an issuer's financial condition, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred and industry analysts' reports. As management has the ability to hold debt securities until maturity, or for the foreseeable future, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.

As of September 30, 2017, 10 corporate obligations had unrealized losses of approximately 0.59% from the Company’s amortized cost basis of these securities. At December 31, 2016, 13 corporate obligations had an unrealized loss with aggregate depreciation of approximately 1.92% from the Company's amortized cost basis of these securities. These unrealized losses are principally due to changes in interest rates. No credit issues have been identified that cause management to believe the declines in market value are other than temporary. In analyzing the issuer's financial condition, management considers industry analysts' reports, financial performance and projected target prices of investment analysts within a one-year time frame. As management has the ability to hold debt securities until maturity, or for the foreseeable future, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.

As of September 30, 2017, 14 mortgage-backed securities (“MBSs”) and collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMOs”) had unrealized losses with aggregate depreciation of approximately 1.39% from the Company’s amortized cost basis of these securities. At December 31, 2016, 14 MBSs and CMOs had unrealized losses with aggregate depreciation of approximately 1.92% from the Company’s amortized cost basis. We believe these unrealized losses are principally due to the credit market’s concerns regarding the stability of the mortgage market, changes in interest rates and credit spreads and uncertainty of future prepayment speeds. Management considers available evidence to assess whether it is more likely-than-not that all amounts due would not be collected. In such assessment, management considers the severity and duration of the impairment, the credit ratings of the security, the overall deal and payment structure, including the Company's position within the structure, underlying obligor, financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, delinquencies, defaults, loss severities, recoveries, prepayments, cumulative loss projections, discounted cash flows and fair value estimates. There has been no disruption of the scheduled cash flows on any of the securities. Management’s analysis as of September 30, 2017 revealed no expected credit losses on the securities and therefore, declines are not deemed to be other than temporary.2021, respectively.

The Company utilizes an 8 point internal loan rating system, largely based on regulatory classifications, as follows:

Loans Rated Pass– these are loans in categories 1 – 5 that are considered to be protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor, or by the value of the asset or the underlying collateral.

Loans Rated Special Mention– these loans in category 6 have potential weaknesses and are watched closely by management. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset at some future date.

Loans Rated Substandard– these loans in category 7 are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Loans Rated Doubtful– these loans in category 8 have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified Substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Loans Rated Loss– these loans are considered uncollectible and are not part of the 8 point rating system. They are of such small value that their continuance as assets without establishment of a specific reserve is not warranted. This classification does not mean that an asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but, rather, that it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off a basically worthless asset even though practical recovery may be affected in the future.

NOTE 10. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Mortgage Loan Commitments

Mortgage loan commitments are referred to as derivative loan commitments if the loan that will result from exercise of the commitment will be held-for-sale upon funding. The Company enters into commitments to fund residentialoriginate and sell mortgage loans at specified times in the future, with the intention that these loans will subsequently be sold in the secondary market. A mortgage loan commitment binds the Companyloans. The Bank uses derivatives to lend funds to a potential borrower at a specified interest rate and within a specified period of time, generally up to 60 days after inception of the rate lock.

Interest Rate Lock Commitments

Outstanding derivative loan commitments expose the Company tohedge the risk that the price of the loans arising from exercise of the loan commitment might decline from inception of the rate lock to funding of the loan due to increaseschanges in mortgage interest rates. If interest rates increase, the value of these loan commitments decreases. Conversely, if interest rates decrease, the value of these loan commitments increases. The notional amountfair values of interest rate lock commitments was $31,933,000 and $19,738,000mortgage loans held-for-sale. An optimal amount of mortgage loans are sold directly into bulk commitments with investors at September 30, 2017the time an interest rate is locked, other loans are sold on an individual best efforts basis at the time an interest rate is locked, and December 31, 2016, respectively. Thethe remaining balance of locked loans are hedged using To-Be-Announced (“TBA”) mortgage-backed securities or bulk mandatory forward loan sale commitments.

Derivatives are accounted for as free-standing or economic derivatives and are measured at fair value. Derivatives are recorded as either other assets or other liabilities on the condensed consolidated statements of condition.

NOTE 11. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The Company has no other off-balance-sheet arrangements or transactions with unconsolidated, special purpose entities that would exposeFair value is the Company to liability that is not reflected on the face of the financial statements.

NOTE 11. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value as theexchange price that would be received to sellfor an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs(exit price) in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The priceliability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the principal (or most advantageous) market used to measuremeasurement date. 

Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value are grouped in three levels within the fair value of the asset or liability shall not be adjusted for transaction costs. An orderly transaction is a transaction that assumes exposure to the market for a period prior to the measurement date to allow for marketing activities that are usual and customary for transactions involving such assets and liabilities; it is not a forced transaction. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are (i) independent, (ii) knowledgeable, (iii) able to transact and, (iv) willing to transact.

FASB ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts, such as cash flows or earnings, to a single present amount on a discounted basis. The cost approach ishierarchy based on the amount that currently would be required to replacemarkets in which the service capacityassets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of an asset (replacement costs). Valuation techniques should be consistently applied.

Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. In that regard, FASB ASC 820 establishes aused to determine fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.value.

 

The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

 

Level 1 Inputs - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date, or convert to cash in the short term.

Level 1 Inputs – Valuations are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 Inputs - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 2 Inputs – Valuations are based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuations for which all significant assumptions are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 Inputs - Significant unobservable inputs that reflect an entity’s own assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 Inputs – Valuations are based on unobservable inputs that may include significant management judgment and estimation.

 

A description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy at the reporting date, is set forth below.

 

In general, fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value. While management believes the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

Available-for-SaleAvailable-for-Sale Securities – Securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 (nationally recognized securities exchanges) and Level 2 inputs. For theselevel 2 securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include but is not limited to dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U. S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayments speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.conditions.

 

Loans Held-for-Sale – These loans are reported at fair value. Fair value is determined based on expected proceeds based on committed sales contracts and commitments of similar loans if not already committed and are considered Level 2 inputs.

Derivative Instruments – The fair value of the interest rate lock commitments, forward TBA mortgage-backed securities and mandatory forward commitments are estimated using quoted or published market prices for similar instruments and adjusted for factors such as pull-through rate assumptions based on historical information, where appropriate. Interest rate lock commitments are considered Level 3 inputs and forward TBA mortgage-backed securities and mandatory forward commitments are considered Level 2 inputs.

NOTE 11. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS – continued

Impaired Loans– Impaired loans are reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral.collateral or using a discounted cash flow if the loan is not collateral dependent. Collateral values are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on internally customized discounting criteria.

Loans Held-for-

Sale – These loans are reported at the lower of cost or fair value. Fair value is determined based on expected proceeds based on sales contractsReal Estate and commitments and are considered Level 2 inputs.

Other Repossessed Assets – Fair values are valueddetermined at the time the loan is foreclosed upon and the asset is transferred from loans. The value is based upon primary primarily on third party appraisals, less costs to sell. The appraisalssell and are generally discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business. Such discounts are typically significant and result inconsidered Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Repossessed assets are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basisperiodically for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly,accordingly.

Mortgage Servicing Rights– The fair value of mortgage servicing rights are estimated using net present value of expected cash flows based on same or similara third party model that incorporates industry assumptions and is adjusted for factors above.such as prepayment speeds and are considered Level 3 inputs.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of the following classes of financial instruments. However, the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 provides additional description of valuation methodologies used in estimating fair value of these financial instruments.

Cash, Interest Bearing Accounts, Accrued Interest and Dividend Receivable and Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities – The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization.

Stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (“FHLB”) and Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) – The fair value of stock approximates redemption value.

Loans Receivable – Fair values are estimated by stratifying the loan portfolio into groups of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as real estate, commercial, and consumer, with each category further segmented into fixed and adjustable rate interest terms. For mortgage loans, the Company uses the secondary market rates in effect for loans that have similar characteristics. The fair value of other fixed rate loans is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the anticipated maturities adjusted for prepayment estimates. Adjustable interest rate loans are assumed to approximate fair value because they generally reprice within the short term.

Fair values are adjusted for credit risk based on assessment of risk identified with specific loans, and risk adjustments on the remaining portfolio based on credit loss experience.

Assumptions regarding credit risk are judgmentally determined using specific borrower information, internal credit quality analysis, and historical information on segmented loan categories for non-specific borrowers.

Mortgage Servicing Rights – the fair value of servicing rights was determined using discount rates ranging from approximately 13.00% to 15.00%, prepayment speeds ranging from approximately 104.00% to 277.00% PSA, depending on stratification of the specific right. The fair value was also adjusted for the effect of potential past dues and foreclosures.

EAGLE BANCORP MONTANA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 11. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES - continued

Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance – The carrying amount for cash surrender value of life insurance approximates fair value as policies are recorded at redemption value.

Deposits and Time Certificates of Deposit – The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as checking, passbook, and money market, is equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair value of time certificates of deposit is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar maturities.

Advances from the FHLB and Subordinated Debentures – The fair value of the Company’s advances and debentures are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on the interest rate that would be effective September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively if the borrowings repriced according to their stated terms.

Off-Balance-Sheet Instruments – Fair values for off-balance-sheet, credit-related financial instruments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. The fair values of these financial instruments are considered insignificant. Additionally, those financial instruments have no carrying value.

NOTE 12. MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

On September 5, 2017, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with TwinCo, Inc., a Montana corporation (“TwinCo”), and TwinCo’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Ruby Valley Bank, a Montana chartered commercial bank. The merger agreement provides that Ruby Valley Bank will merge with and into Opportunity Bank of Montana. Ruby Valley Bank operates 2 branches in Madison County, Montana with approximately $92,000,000 in assets, $78,000,000 in deposits and $55,000,000 in gross loans as of June 30, 2017. This acquisition is anticipated to close in the first quarter of 2018, subject to the receipt of approvals from regulatory authorities, the approval of TwinCo shareholders and the satisfaction of other closing conditions.

NOTE 13. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, September 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This guidance is a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that will supersede substantially all existing revenue recognition guidance. The new standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under existing guidance. These may include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. On July 9, 2015, the FASB agreed to delay the effective date of the standard by one year. Therefore, the new standard will be effective in the first quarter of 2018. Our revenue is comprised of net interest income on financial assets and financial liabilities, which is explicitly excluded from the scope of ASU 2014-09, and non-interest income. The largest percentage of our non-interest income is derived from the gain on sale of mortgage loans. The gains are recognized at the time of the sale of the loan, when proceeds are sent to us by the investor purchasing the loan. We do not expect to realize a change in the recognition of the revenue on that part of our noninterest income. We will evaluate the impact of this standard on our revenue from our wealth management division; however we do not expect it to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016 the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (Subtopic 825-10). The amendment has a number of provisions including the requirements that public business entities use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, a separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (i.e. securities or loans receivables), and eliminating the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. The amendment is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and is not expected to have a significant impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) intended to improve financial reporting regarding leasing transactions. The new standard affects all companies and organizations that lease assets. The standard will require organizations to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases if the lease terms are more than 12 months. The guidance also will require qualitative and quantitative disclosures providing additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of the amendment on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. We currently lease four locations that serve as full-service branches, with the longest running lease expiring in 2021. We are exploring options to use a third party vendor to assist with the implementation of this standard.

In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13,13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326)326) 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 standard requires an organization to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. The standard also requires enhanced disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements that provide additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. Additionally, the standard amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration.

In October 2019, the FASB amended the effective date of the standard. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. All entities may adopt the amendments in this update earlier as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity will apply the amendments in this update through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective (that is, a modified-retrospective approach).

In February 2022, the FASB issued ASU No.2022-02, an update to ASU No.2016-13. The amendments in the update eliminate TDR recognition and measurement guidance. Instead, entities must evaluate whether the modification represents a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. Existing disclosure requirements are enhanced and the new requirements are introduced related to certain modifications of receivables made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, for public business entities, the amendments in the update require that entities disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables. This information must be included in the vintage disclosures, which require an entity to disclose the amortized cost basis of financing receivables by credit-quality indicator and class of financing receivable by year of origination.

The Company believes the amendments in this updatethese updates will have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and is workingcontinuing to evaluate the significance of that impact. In that regard, we have established a working group under the direction of our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Credit Officer. The group is composed of individuals from the finance and credit administration areas of the Company. We have developed a current expected credit loss model and are currently developing an implementation plan, including assessment of processes, segmentation of the loan portfolio and identifying and adding data fields necessary for analysis. The adoption ofutilizing this standard is likely to result in an increase in themodel concurrently with our existing allowance for loan and lease losses as a result of changing from an “incurred loss”loss model to an “expected loss” model.during 2022. While we currently cannot reasonably estimate the impact of adopting this standard, we expect the impact will be influenced by the composition, characteristics and quality of our loan and securities portfolios, as well as the general economic conditions and forecasts as of the adoption date.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04,2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350)350) to amend and simplify current goodwill impairment testing to eliminate Step 2 from the current provisions. Under the new guidance, an entity should perform the goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. An entity still has the option to perform the quantitativequalitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if a quantitative impairment test is necessary. The guidance will beis effective for the Company on January 1, 2023 and adoption of the standard is being evaluated to assess the impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020,the FASB issued ASU No.2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) which provides temporary optional expedients to ease the financial reporting burdens of the expected market transition from London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to an alternative reference rate such as SOFR. The guidance was effective upon issuance and generally can be applied through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the date of adoption and the potential impact. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU No.2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), which clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. ASU No.2021-01 was effective upon issuance and generally can be applied through December 31, 2022. ASU No.2021-01 has not had and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’sCompany's consolidated financial statements. We have improved our internal reporting systems as it relates to profitability by divisions and markets within the Company. We expect these systems to help in our evaluation of potential impairment.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-08, Receivables–Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20) to shorten the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium to the earliest call date. Currently, entities generally amortize the premium as a yield adjustment over the contractual life of the security. The guidance does not change the accounting for callable debt securities held at a discount. For public business entities, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including in an interim period. We have currently been following this guidance based on our internal investment policy guidelines. There is little impact on our consolidated financial statements, as we typically do not invest in these types of securities.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

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

 

OverviewIntroduction

This discussion and analysis provides information that management believes is necessary to understand Eagle's financial condition, changes in financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to 2021. The following should be read in conjunction with the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, and accompanying Notes thereto, for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in Eagle's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 9, 2022, and in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and accompanying Notes thereto, included in Part I - Item 1. Financial Statements. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the future results that may be attained for the entire year or other interim periods. 

Executive Summary

 

The Company’sCompany’s primary business activity is the ownership of its wholly owned subsidiary, Opportunity Bank of Montana (the “Bank”). The Bank is a Montana chartered commercial bank that focuses on both consumer and commercial lending. It engages in typical banking activities: acquiring deposits from local markets and originating loans and investing in securities. Its deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Bank’s primary component of earnings is its net interest margin (also called spread or margin), the difference between interest income and interest expense. The net interest margin is managed by management (through the pricing of its products and by the types of products offered and kept in portfolio), and is affected by changes in market interest rates. The Bank also generates noninterest income in the form of fee income and gain on sale of loans.

 

The Bank has a strong mortgage lending focus, with a large portion of its loan originations represented by single-family residential mortgages, which has enabled it to successfully market home equity loans, as well as a wide range of shorter term consumer loans for various personal needs (automobiles, recreational vehicles, etc.). In recent years, theThe Bank has also focused on adding commercial loans to its portfolio, both real estate and non-real estate. We have made significant progress in this initiative. The purpose of this diversification is to mitigate the Bank’s dependence on the residential mortgage market, as well as to improve itsour ability to manage itsour interest rate spread. Recent acquisitions have added to our agricultural loans, which generally have shorter maturities and nominally higher interest rates. This has provided additional interest income and improved interest rate sensitivity. The Bank’s management recognizes that fee income will also enable it to be less dependent on specialized lending and it now maintains a significant loan serviced portfolio which provides a steady source of fee income. Fee income is also supplemented with fees generated from the Bank’s deposit accounts. The Bank has a high percentage of non-maturity deposits, such as checking accounts and savings accounts, which allows management flexibility in managing its spread. Non-maturity deposits and certificates of deposits do not automatically reprice as interest rates rise. Gain on sale of loans also provides significant noninterest income in periods of high mortgage loan origination volumes. Such income will be adversely affected in periods of lower mortgage activity.

 

ManagementManagement continues to focus on improving the Bank’s core earnings. Core earnings can be described as income before taxes, with the exclusion of gain on sale of loans and adjustments to the market value of the Bank’s loan servicing portfolio. Management believes that the Bank will needneeds to continue to concentrate on increasing net interest margin, other areas of fee income and control of operating expenses to achieve earnings growth going forward. Management’s strategy of growing the bank’s loan portfolio and deposit base is expected to help achieve these goals as follows: loans typically earn higher rates of return than investments; a larger deposit base should yield higher fee income; increasing the asset base will reduce the relative impact of fixed operating costs. The biggest challenge to the strategy is funding the growth of the Bank’s balance sheetstatement of financial condition in an efficient manner. Though deposit growth has been steady, it may become more difficult to maintain due to significant competition and possible reduced customer demand for deposits as customers may shift into other asset classes.

 

The level and movement of interest rates impacts the Bank’sBank’s earnings as well. The Federal Open Market Committee changedheld the federal funds target rate from 0.5% to 0.75%at 0.25% during the three monthsyear ended December 31, 2016.2021. The rate increased from 0.75% to 1.0%3.25% during the three months ended March 31, 2017. The rate increased again from 1.0% to 1.25% during the three months ended June 30, 2017. The rate remained at 1.25% during the threenine months ended September 30, 2017.2022

Recent Events

Acquisitions

("FCB"), a Montana corporation,and itsFCB's wholly-owned subsidiary, Ruby ValleyFirst Community Bank, a Montana state bank pursuant to which,chartered commercial bank. The Merger Agreement provided that, upon the terms and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the merger agreement, TwinCo willMerger Agreement, FCB would merge with and into Eagle, with Eagle continuing as the surviving corporationcorporation. The transaction closed on April 30, 2022. In the transaction, Eagle acquired nine retail bank branches and two loan production offices in the merger. Immediately following the merger, Ruby Valley will merge withMontana. The total consideration paid was $38.58 million and into Opportunity Bank, with Opportunity Bank surviving.

Subject to the terms$10.23 million and conditions of the merger agreement upon completion of the merger, each outstanding share of TwinCo common stock will be converted into the right to receive a combination of cash and shares of Eagle common stock subject to such shareholders’ election to receive all cash or all shares of Eagle common stock. The merger agreement contains customary proration procedures so that the aggregate amount of cash paid and shares of Eagle common stock issued in the merger as a whole will be equal to 55% cash and 45% stock. Based on the number of shares of TwinCo common stock outstanding as of September 5, 2017, we expect to issue approximately 446,773 shares of our common stock and pay approximately $9.9 million in cash to TwinCo shareholders in the aggregate upon completion of the merger.

On October 13, 2017, the Company closed an underwritten public offering, including the exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares, at the public offering price of $18.25 per share. The exercise of the option to purchase additional shares brought the total number of shares of common stock sold by the Company to 1,189,041 shares and increased the amount of gross proceeds raised in the offering, before underwriting discounts and expenses of the offering, to approximately $20.1 million.$28.35 million.

Nonperforming Assets. Generally, our collection procedures provide that when a loan is 15 or more days delinquent, the borrower is sent a past due notice. If the loan becomes 30 days delinquent, the borrower is sent a written delinquency notice requiring payment. If the delinquency continues, subsequent efforts are made to contact the delinquent borrower, including face to face meetings and counseling to resolve the delinquency. All collection actions are undertaken with the objective of compliance with the Fair Debt Collection Act.

For mortgage loans and home equity loans, if the borrower is unable to cure the delinquency or reach a payment agreement, we will institute foreclosure actions.actions. If a foreclosure action is taken and the loan is not reinstated, paid in full or refinanced, the property is sold at judicial sale at which we may be the buyer if there are no adequate offers to satisfy the debt. Any property acquired as the result of foreclosure, or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, is classified as real estate owned until such time as it is sold or otherwise disposed of. When real estate owned is acquired, it is recorded at its fair market value less estimated selling costs. The initial recording of any loss is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent write-downs are recorded as a charge to operations. As of September 30, 2017, the Bank had $483,0002022 there was no real estate owned and other repossessed property.

Analysis of Net Interest Income

 

The Bank’sBank’s earnings have historically depended primarily upon net interest income, which is the difference between interest income earned on loans and investments and interest paid on deposits and any borrowed funds. It is the single largest component of Eagle’s operating income. Net interest income is affected by (i) the difference between rates of interest earned on loans and investments and rates paid on interest bearinginterest-bearing deposits and borrowings (the “interest rate spread”) and (ii) the relative amounts of loans and investments and interest bearinginterest-bearing deposits and borrowings.

 

The following tables include includes average balances for balance sheetfinancial condition items, as well as interest and dividends and average yields related to the average balances. All average balances are daily average balances. Non-accrualNonaccrual loans were included in the computation of average balances, but have been reflected in the table as loans carrying a zero yield. The yields include the effect of deferred fees and discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or expense.

The increase in salaries expense is due in part to higher commission-based compensation related to the continued loan growth and additional staff related to compliance with mortgage rules. In addition, the Company incurred acquisition costs totaling $276,000 related to the merger agreement with TwinCo, Inc. discussed above.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense was $1.19$2.13 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017,2022, compared to $1.17$962,000 for the prior period. 

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense was $57.66 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Income taximpacted by an increase in other noninterest expense of $2.32 million. The commodity sales income in other noninterest income has increased with our increased income levels. However, tax free municipal bond incomea corresponding sales expense included in other noninterest expense of $2.13 million and Bank owned life insurance income help$962,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. In addition, $2.30 million of acquisition costs were incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $35,000 for the same period in the prior period. These increases were largely offset by a decrease in salaries and employee benefits due to lower commissions paid on residential mortgage originations. 

Provision for Income Taxes. Provision for income taxes was $2.36 million for the overall effective tax rates.nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $4.23 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 due to decreased income before provision for income taxes.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity

 

The Bank is required by regulation to maintain minimumsufficient levels of liquid assets as defined in the regulations of the Montana Division of Banking and Financial Institutions and Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) regulations. The liquidity requirement is retained for safety and soundness purposes, and appropriatepurposes. Appropriate levels of liquidity will depend upon the types of activities in which the company engages. For internal reporting purposes, the Bank uses policy minimums of 1.0%, and 8.0% for “basic surplus” and “basic surplus with FHLB” as internally defined. In general, the “basic surplus” is a calculation of the ratio of unencumbered short-term assets reduced by estimated percentages of CD maturities and other deposits that may leave the Bank in the next 90 days divided by total assets. “Basic surplus with FHLB” adds to “basic surplus” the additional borrowing capacity the Bank has with FHLB.the FHLB of Des Moines. The Bank exceeded those minimum ratios as of both September 30, 20172022 and December 31, 2016.2021.

 

The Bank’sBank’s primary sources of funds are deposits, repayment of loans and mortgage-backed and collateralized mortgage obligation securities, maturities of investments, funds provided from operations, and advances from the FHLB of Des Moines and other borrowings. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company established a $10.00 million line of credit with a correspondent bank. Scheduled repayments of loans and mortgage-backed and collateralized mortgage obligation securities and maturities of investment securities are generally predictable. However, other sources of funds, such as deposit flows and loan prepayments, can be greatly influenced by the general level of interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The BankCompany uses liquidity resources principally to fund existing and future loan commitments. It also uses them to fund maturing certificates of deposit and demand deposit withdrawals, for investment purposes, to meet operating expenses and capital expenditures, for dividend payments and stock repurchases and to invest in other loans and investments, maintain adequate liquidity and meet operating expenses.levels.

 

Liquidity may be adversely affected by unexpected deposit outflows, higher interest rates paid by competitors, and similar matters. Management monitors projected liquidity needs and determines the level desirable based in part on the Bank's commitments to make loans and management’smanagement’s assessment of the Bank’sBank's ability to generate funds.

Through the nine months ended September 30, 2022, liquidity levels have remained strong. The Company completed a $40.00 million subordinated debt offering in January 2022. A portion of the net proceeds were used to repay at maturity the $10.00 million of senior notes due in February 2022.

 

Capital Resources

 

At August 31, 2017 (the most recent report available forAs of September 30, 2017),2022, the Bank’s internally determined measurement of sensitivity to interest rate movements as measured by a 200 basis point rise in interest rates scenario, increased the economic value of equity (“EVE”) by 3.9%5.20% compared to an increase of 2.1%8.90% at November 30, 2016 (the most recent report available for December 31, 2016).2021. The Bank is within the guidelines set forth by the Board of Directors for interest rate risk sensitivity in rising interest rate scenarios.

 

Beginning January 1, 2015, community banking organizations became subject to a new regulatory rule recently adopted by federal banking agencies (commonly referred to as Basel III). The new rule establishes a new regulatory capital framework that incorporates revisions toCompany's and the Basel capital framework, strengthens the definition of regulatory capital, increases risk-based capital requirements, and amends the methodologies for determining risk-weighted assets. These changes are expected to increase the amount of capital required by community banking organizations. Basel III includes a multiyear transition period from January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2019.

The Banks’s Tier I leverage ratio, as measured under State of Montana and FRB rules, increased from 9.23% as of December 31, 2016 to 10.57% as of September 30, 2017. The Bank’s strong capital position helps to mitigate its interest rate risk exposure.

As of September 30, 2017, the Bank’sBank's regulatory capital was in excess of all applicable regulatory requirements. Asrequirements and the Bank is deemed "well capitalized" pursuant to State of Montana and FRB rules as of September 30, 2017,2022. The Company's and the Bank’s totalBank's actual capital amounts and ratios as of September 30, 2022 are presented in the table below and all of the ratios, with the exception of the Tier 1 capital common equity Tier 1 capital and Tier 1 leverage ratios were 15.40%, 14.32%, 14.32% and 10.57%, respectively, compared to regulatory requirements of 9.25%, 7.25%, 5.75% and 5.25%, respectively.

Interest Rate Risk

 

Interest rate risk is the potential for loss of future earnings resulting from adverse changes in the level of interest rates.rates. Interest rate risk results from several factors and could have a significant impact on the Company’s net interest income, which is the CompanyCompany's primary source of income.revenue. Net interest income is affected by changes in interest rates, the relationship between rates on interest bearinginterest-bearing assets and liabilities, the impact of interest fluctuations on asset prepayments and the mix of interest bearinginterest-bearing assets and liabilities.

 

Although interest rate risk is inherent in the banking industry, banks are expected to have sound risk management practices in place to measure, monitor and control interest rate exposures.exposures. The objective of interest rate risk management is to contain the risks associated with interest rate fluctuations. The process involves identification and management of the sensitivity of net interest income to changing interest rates.

 

The ongoing monitoring and management of this risk is an important component of the Company’sCompany’s asset/liability committee, which is governed by policies established by the Company’s Board that are reviewed and approved annually. The Board delegates responsibility for carrying out the asset/liability management policies to the Bank’s asset/liability committee. In this capacity, the asset/liability committee develops guidelines and strategies impacting the Company’s asset/liability management related activities based upon estimated market risk sensitivity, policy limits and overall market interest rate levels and trends. The Company’s goal of its asset and liability management practices is to maintain or increase the level of net interest income within an acceptable level of interest rate risk. Our asset and liability policy and strategies are expected to continue as described so long as competitive and regulatory conditions in the financial institution industry and market interest rates continue as they have in recent years.
