Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements –

In February 2016,preparing the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases(Topic842). The standard requires lesseesfinancial statements, management is required to recognizemake estimates and assumptions that affect the assetsreported amounts 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 reportingbalance sheet date and revenues and expenses for the period. On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02 which resulted in the recording of finance lease assets and liabilities of $3.8 million and operating lease assets and liabilities of $1.1 million on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. See Note 9 to the financial statements.Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments(“CECL”), 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 effectedaffected 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 effectcumulative-effect adjustment to opening retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. The CECL model has been completedIn November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10,Financial Instruments ‒ Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and runs concurrently withHedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842). This Update defers the existing incurred loss model each month.effective date of ASU 2016-13 for SEC filers that are eligible to be smaller reporting companies, non-SEC filers, and all other companies, to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management continues monitoringwill continue to monitor model output with final assumption changesthroughout the deferral period.

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-11,Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, to clarify its new credit impairment guidance in ASC 326, based on implementation issues raised by stakeholders. This Update clarified, among other things, that expected recoveries are to be included in the allowance for credit losses for these financial assets; an accounting policy election can be made to adjust the effective interest rate for existing troubled debt restructurings based on the prepayment assumptions instead of the prepayment assumptions applicable immediately prior to the restructuring event; and extends the practical expedient to exclude accrued interest receivable from all additional relevant disclosures involving amortized cost basis. The effective dates in this Update are the same as those applicable for ASU 2019-10. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-3,Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments. This ASU was issued to improve and clarify various financial instruments topics, including the current expected credit losses (CECL) standard issued in 2016. The ASU includes seven issues that describe the areas of improvement and the related amendments to GAAP; they are intended to make the standards easier to understand and apply and to eliminate inconsistencies, and they are narrow in scope and are not expected to significantly change practice for most entities. Among its provisions, the ASU clarifies that all entities, other than public business entities that elected the fair value option, are required to provide certain fair value disclosures under ASC 825,Financial Instruments, in both interim and annual financial statements. It also clarifies that the contractual term of a net investment in a lease under Topic 842 should be madethe contractual term used to measure expected credit losses under Topic 326. Amendments related to ASU 2019-04 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is not permitted before an entity’s adoption of ASU 2016-01. Amendments related to ASU 2016-13 for entities that have not yet adopted that guidance are effective upon adoption of the amendments in ASU 2016-13. Early adoption is not permitted before an entity’s adoption of ASU 2016-13. Amendments related to ASU 2016-13 for entities that have adopted that guidance are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those years. Other amendments are effective upon issuance of this ASU. The Company is currently evaluating the third quarter.impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

 

Reclassification of Comparative Amounts

NOTE 2 REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 606, management determined that the primary sources of revenue, which emanate from interest income on loans and investments, along with noninterest revenue resulting from investment security gains, gains on the sale of loans, and BOLI income, are not within the scope of ASC 606. These revenue sources cumulatively comprise 92.2%92.4% of the total revenue of the Company.

 

The main types of noninterest income within the scope of the standard are as follows:

 

Service charges on deposit accounts – The Company has contracts with its deposit customers where fees are charged if the account balance falls below predetermined levels defined as compensating balances. These agreements can be cancelled at any time by either the Company or the deposit customer. Revenue from these transactions is recognized on a monthly basis as the Company has an unconditional right to the fee consideration. The Company also has transaction fees related to specific customer requests or activities that include overdraft fees, online banking fees, and other transaction fees. All of these fees are attributable to specific performance obligations of the Company where the revenue is recognized at a defined point in time, which is completion of the requested service/transaction.

 

Gains (losses) on sale of other real estate owned(“owned (“OREO”) – Gains and losses are recognized at the completion of the property sale when the buyer obtains control of the real estate and all of the performance obligations of the Company have been satisfied. Evidence of the buyer obtaining control of the asset include transfer of the property title, physical possession of the asset, and the buyer obtaining control of the risks and rewards related to the asset. In situations where the Company agrees to provide financing to facilitate the sale, additional analysis is performed to ensure that the contract for sale identifies the buyer and seller, the asset to be transferred and the payment terms, that the contract has a true commercial substance and that amounts due from the buyer are reasonable. In situations where financing terms are not reflective of current market terms, the transaction price is discounted, impacting the gain/loss and the carrying value of the asset.

 

The following table depicts the disaggregation of revenue derived from contracts with customers to depict the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows:

The Company recognizes restricted stock forfeitures in the period they occur.

 

Share-based compensation expense of $0$294,000 and $91,000$0 was recognized for the three-monththree-month periods ended June 30, 2019 2020 and 2018,2019, respectively. Share-based compensation expense of $90,000($113,000) and $136,000$90,000 was recognized for the six-monthsix-month periods ended June 30, 2019 2020 and 2018,2019, respectively. The expense recorded for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 is the result of the decrease in the market valuations of the plans for December 31, 2019. Vesting of shares under the plan is contingent on a combination of service period and a performance condition tied to the total shareholder return on the Company’s stock. Due to the change in market conditions during the first quarter of 2020, there was a significant decrease in the probability of the achievement of the performance condition which resulted in a decrease in the liability related to the plan and a reversal of compensation expense. Since the shares of restricted stock are historically paid out at the vesting date in a combination of shares and cash, the Company has recorded a liability related to this plan which totals $581,000 and $236,000 and $261,000 at June 30, 2019 2020 and 2018,2019, respectively. When the shares vest, the amount distributed in shares is transferred to common stock and the remainder is distributed in cash.

 

Total unrecognized stock compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation on restricted stock as of June 30, 2019 2020 totals $517,000,$374,000, of which $123,000$124,000 is estimated for the rest of 2019, $201,0002020, $180,000 for 2020, $168,0002021, $63,000 for 2021,2022, and $25,000$7,000 for 2022.2023.

NOTE 4 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

The Company provides dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the average shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share adds the dilutive effects of stock options and restricted stock to average shares outstanding.

 

The following table sets forth the composition of the weighted-average common shares (denominator) used in the basic and diluted earnings-per-share computation.

Also outstanding were 20,42561,334 shares of restricted stock. None of the outstanding options or restricted stock were anti-dilutive.

 

When shares recognized as equity are repurchased, the amount of the consideration paid, which includes directly attributable costs, is recognized as a deduction from equity. Repurchased shares are classified as treasury shares and are presented in the treasury share reserve. When treasury shares are sold or reissued subsequently, the amount received is recognized as an increase in equity and the resulting surplus or deficit on the transaction is presented within the share premium. The reserve for the Company’s treasury shares comprises the cost of the Company’s shares held by the Company. As of June 30, 2019, 2020, the Company held 403,912929,362 of the Company’s shares, which is an increase of 17,74758,200 from the 386,165871,162 shares held as of December 31, 2018.2019.

 


NOTE 5 - FAIRFAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for an asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following levels:

 

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.

 

13

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-waytwo-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.

 

This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available.

 

The following tables present the assets measured on a recurring basis on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at their fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Investment Securities Available for SaleSale - The Company obtains fair values from an independent pricing service which represent quoted prices for similar assets, fair values determined by pricing models using a market approach that considers observable market data, such as interest rate volatilities, LIBOR yield curve, credit spreads and prices from market makers and live trading systems (Level II).

 

Equity Securities - Equity securities that are traded on a national securities exchange are valued at their last reported sales price as of the measurement date. Equity securities traded in the over-the-counter (“OTC”) markets and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are generally valued at their last reported “bid” price if held long, and last reported “ask” price if sold short. To the extent equity securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level I of the fair value hierarchy. Equity securities traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are generally categorized in Level II of the fair value hierarchy.

The following tables present the assets measured on a nonrecurringnon-recurring basis on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at their fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy. Collateral-dependent impaired loans are carried at fair value if they have been charged down to fair value or if a specific valuation allowance has been established. A new cost basis is established at the time a property is initially recorded in OREO. OREO properties are carried at fair value if a devaluation has been taken to the property’s value at initial foreclosure or subsequent to the initial measurement. No such devaluation occurred in the threesix months ended June 30, 2019.2020.

Impaired Loans – The Company has measured impairment on collateral-dependent impaired loans generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-partythird-party appraisals of the properties. In some cases, management may adjust the appraised value due to the age of the appraisal, changes in market conditions, or observable deterioration of the property since the appraisal was completed. Additionally, management makes estimates about expected costs to sell the property which are also included in the net realizable value. If the fair value of the collateral-dependent loan is less than the carrying amount of the loan, a specific reserve for the loan is made in the allowance for loan losses or a charge-off is taken to reduce the loan to the fair value of the collateral (less estimated selling costs) and the loan is included in the above table as a Level III measurement. If the fair value of the collateral exceeds the carrying amount of the loan, then the loan is not included in the above table as it is not currently being carried at its fair value. The fair values in the above table exclude estimated selling costs of $1.8$2.1 million and $492,000 as of June 30, 2019 2020 and December 31, 2018, respectively.2019.

There were 16no securities in a gross unrealized loss position at June 30, 2020.

There were no securities considered temporarily impaired at June 30, 2019.2020.

 

On a quarterly basis, the Company performs an assessment to determine whether there have been any events or economic circumstances indicating that a security with an unrealized loss has suffered other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”). A debt security is considered impaired if the fair value is less than its amortized cost basis at the reporting date. The Company assesses whether the unrealized loss is other than temporary.

 

OTTI losses are recognized in earnings when the Company has the intent to sell the debt security or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the debt security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. However, even if the Company does not expect to sell a debt security, it must evaluate expected cash flows to be received and determine if a credit loss has occurred.

 

An unrealized loss is generally deemed to be other than temporary and a credit loss is deemed to exist if the present value of the expected future cash flows is less than the amortized cost basis of the debt security. As a result, the credit loss of an OTTI is recorded as a component of investment securities gains (losses) in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Income, while the remaining portion of the impairment loss is recognized in other comprehensive income, provided the Company does not intend to sell the underlying debt security and it is “more likely than not” that the Company will not have to sell the debt security prior to recovery.


 

Debt securities issued by U.S. government agencies, U.S. government-sponsored enterprises, and state and political subdivisions accounted for 96%90% of the total available-for-sale portfolio as of June 30, 2019 2020 and no credit losses are expected, given the explicit and implicit guarantees provided by the U.S. federal government and the lack of prolonged unrealized loss positions within the obligations of the state and political subdivisions security portfolio. The Company considers the following factors in determining whether a credit loss exists and the period over which the debt security is expected to recover:

 

 

The length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than the amortized cost basis.basis;

19

Changes in the near-term prospects of the underlying collateral of a security such as changes in default rates, loss severity given default and significant changes in prepayment assumptions;

 

Changes in the near-term prospectsThe level of cash flows generated from the underlying collateral supporting the principal and interest payments of a security such as changes in default rates, loss severity given defaultthe debt securities; and significant changes in prepayment assumptions;

 

The level of cash flows generated from the underlying collateral supporting the principal and interest payments of the debt securities; and

Any adverse change to the credit conditions and liquidity of the issuer, taking into consideration the latest information available about the overall financial condition of the issuer, credit ratings, recent legislation and government actions affecting the issuer’s industry and actions taken by the issuer to deal with the present economic climate.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2019 2020 and 2018,2019, there were no available-for-sale debt securities with an unrealized loss that suffered OTTI. Management does not believe any individual unrealized loss as of June 30, 2019 2020 or December 31, 2018 2019 represented an other-than-temporary impairment. The unrealized losses on debt securities are primarily the result of interest rate changes. These conditions will not prohibit the Company from receiving its contractual principal and interest payments on these debt securities. The fair value of these debt securities is expected to recover as payments are received on these securities and they approach maturity. Should the impairment of any of these securities become other than temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the resulting loss recognized in net income in the period the other-than-temporary impairment is identified.

The Company’s primary business activity is with customers located within its local Northeastern Ohio trade area, eastern Geauga County, and contiguous counties. The Company also serves the central Ohio market with offices in Dublin, Plain City, Powell, Sunbury, Westerville, and Powell,Westerville, Ohio. Commercial, residential, consumer, and agricultural loans are granted. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, loans outstanding to individuals and businesses are dependent upon the local economic conditions in the Company’s immediate trade area.

 

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff generally are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances net of the allowance for loan and lease losses. Interest income is recognized on the accrual method. The accrual of interest is discontinued on a loan when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions, the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful. Interest payments received on nonaccrual loans are applied against the unpaid principal balance until accrual status is restored.

 

Loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred with the net amount amortized over the contractual life of the loan as an adjustment of the related loan’s yield.

The Company’s loan portfolio is segmented to a level that allows management to monitor risk and performance. The portfolio is segmented into Commercial Real Estate (“CRE”) which is further segmented into Owner Occupied (“CRE OO”), Non-owner Occupied (“CRE NOO”), and Multifamily Residential, Residential Real Estate (“RRE”), Commercial and Industrial (“C&I”), Real EstateHome Equity Lines of Credit (“HELOC”), Construction Real Estate - Mortgage which is further segmented into Residential and Commercial Real EstateOther (“CRE”Construction”), and Consumer Installment Loans. The commercial real estate loan segments consist of loans made for the purpose of financing the activities of commercial real estate owners and operators. The residential real estate and HELOC loan segments consist of loans made for the purpose of financing the activities of residential homeowners. The C&I loan segment consists of loans made for the purpose of financing the activities of commercial customers. The residential mortgage loan segment consistsAlthough PPP loans are included with C&I loans, the nature of PPP loans made fordiffers considerably from the purposerest of financing the activities of residential homeowners. The commercial mortgage loan segment consists of loans made for the purpose of financing the activities of commercial real estate owners and operators.category. The consumer loan segment consists primarily of installment loans and overdraft lines of credit connected with customer deposit accounts. The increases in the allowance for loan loss for the ResidentialCRE, RRE, C&I, HELOC, and CREConstruction portfolios were partially offset by decreasesa decrease in the allowance for the C&I, Real Estate Construction, and Consumer Installment portfolios.

 

Management evaluates individual loans in all of the commercial segments for possible impairment based on guidance established by the Board of Directors. 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 the loan was modified in a troubled debt restructuring.

 

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 the following 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. The method is selected on a loan-by-loan basis. 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.

Management uses a nine-pointnine-point internal risk-rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio. The firstfive categories are considered not criticized and are aggregated as Pass rated. The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions. The Special Mention category includes assets that are currently protected but have potential weaknesses, 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 are considered Substandard. Any portion of a loan that has been charged off is placed in the Loss category.  

 

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 with several layers of internal and external oversight. Generally, consumer and residential mortgage loans are included in the Pass categories unless a specific action, such as payment delinquency, bankruptcy, repossession, or death, occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit quality event.  The Company’s Commercial Loan Officers are responsible for the timely and accurate risk rating of the loans in their portfolios at origination and on an ongoing basis.  The Credit Department performs an annual review of all commercial relationships with loan balances of $500,000 or greater.  Confirmation of the appropriate risk grade is included in the review on an ongoing basis.  The Company engages an external consultant to conduct loan reviews on a semiannual basis. Generally, the external consultant reviews commercial relationships greater than $250,000 and criticized relationships greater than $150,000.  Detailed reviews, including plans for resolution, are performed on criticized loans on at least a quarterly basis.  Loans in the Special Mention and Substandard categories that are collectively evaluated for impairment are given separate consideration in the determination of the allowance.

The primary risk of commercial and industrial loans is related to deterioration in the cash flow of the business that may result in the liquidation of the business assets securing the loan. C&I loans are, by nature, secured by less substantial collateral than real estate-secured loans. The primary risk of real estate construction loans is potential delays and disputes during the completion process. The primary risk of residential real estate loans is current economic uncertainties along with the slow recovery in the housing market.uncertainties. The primary risk of commercial real estate loans is loss of income of the owner or occupier of the property and the inability of the market to sustain rent levels. Consumer installment loans historically have experienced higher delinquency rates. Consumer installments are typically secured by less substantial collateral than other types of credits.

Management further monitors the performance and credit quality of the loan portfolio by analyzing the age of the portfolio as determined by the length of time a recorded payment is past due.

 

Nonperforming assets are nonaccrual loans including nonaccrual troubled debt restructurings (“TDR”), loans 90 days or more past due, EMORECO assets, other real estate owned, and repossessed assets. A loan is classified as nonaccrual when, in the opinion of management, there are serious doubts about collectability of interest and principal. Accrual of interest is discontinued on a loan when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions, the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of principal and interest is doubtful.  Payments received on nonaccrual loans are applied against the principal balance.

Interest income that would have been recorded had these loans not been placed on nonaccrual status was $211,000$128,000 for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2019 2020 and $456,000$47,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2019. Interest income that would have been recorded had these loans not been placed on nonaccrual status was $228,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and $342,000 for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019.

 

An allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) is maintained to absorb losses from the loan portfolio.  The ALLL 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 nonperforming loans.

 

The Company’s methodology for determining the ALLL is based on the requirements of ASC Section 310-10-35310-10-35 for loans individually evaluated for impairment (discussed above) and ASC Subtopic 450-20450-20 for loans collectively evaluated for impairment, as well as the Interagency Policy Statement on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses and other bank regulatory guidance. The total of the two components represents the Company’s ALLL. Management also performs impairment analyses on TDRs, which may result in specific reserves.


 

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 modified by other qualitative factors.

 

The classes described above, which are based on the purpose code assigned to each loan, provide the starting point for the ALLL analysis.  Management tracks the historical net charge-off activity at the call code level. The historical charge-off factor was calculated using the last twelve consecutive historical quarters.

 

Management has identified a number of additional qualitative factors which it uses to supplement the historical charge-off factor because these factors are likely to cause estimated credit losses associated with the existing loan pools to differ from historical loss experience. The additional factors that are evaluated quarterly and updated using information obtained from internal, regulatory, and governmental sources are: national and local economic trends and conditions; levels of and trends in delinquency rates and nonaccrual loans; trends in volumes and terms of loans; effects of changes in lending policies; experience, ability, and depth of lending staff; value of underlying collateral; and concentrations of credit from a loan type, industry and geographic standpoint.

 

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 ALLL. When information confirms all or part of specific loans to be uncollectible, these amounts are promptly charged off against the ALLL.

TDR describes loans on which the bank has granted concessions for reasons related to the customer’s financial difficulties. Such concessions may include one or more of the following:

reduction in the interest rate to below-market rates

extension of repayment requirements beyond normal terms

reduction of the principal amount owed

reduction of accrued interest due

acceptance of other assets in full or partial payment of a debt

In each case, the concession is made due to deterioration in the borrower’s financial condition, and the new terms are less stringent than those required on a new loan with similar risk.

On April 7, 2020, federal banking regulators issued a revised interagency statement that included guidance on their approach for the accounting of loan modifications in light of the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The guidance interprets current accounting standards and indicates that a lender can conclude that a borrower is not experiencing financial difficulty if short-term modifications are made in response to COVID-19, such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant related to the loans in which the borrower is less than 30 days past due on its contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. The agencies confirmed in working with the staff of the FASB that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief are not TDRs.

NOTE 9STOCK SPLIT DISCLOSURE

 

On October 9, 2019, the Board of Directors of Middlefield Banc Corp. authorized a two-for-one stock split. Each shareholder of record at the close of business on October 25, 2019, received one additional share for every outstanding share held on the record date. The additional shares were paid on November 8, 2019. As a result, all share and earnings per share information have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split.

With respect to the June 30, 2020 and 2019 financial statements, the effect of the stock split on June 30, 2019 amounts was recognized retroactively in the stockholders’ equity accounts in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and in all share data in the Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Since the opening of the PPP, several larger banks have been subject to litigation regarding the process and procedures that those banks used in processing applications for the PPP. Middlefield Bank may be exposed to the risk of similar litigation, from both customers and non-customers that approached the bank regarding PPP loans, regarding the process and procedures used in processing applications for the PPP. If any such litigation is filed against Middlefield Bank and is not resolved in a manner favorable to Middlefield Bank, it may result in significant financial liability or adversely affect Middlefield Bank’s reputation. In addition, litigation can be costly, regardless of outcome. Any financial liability, litigation costs or reputational damage caused by PPP-related litigation could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Middlefield Bank also has credit risk on PPP loans if a determination is made by the SBA that there is a deficiency in the manner in which the loan was originated, funded, or serviced by Middlefield Bank, such as an issue with the eligibility of a borrower to receive a PPP loan, which may or may not be related to the ambiguity in the laws, rules and guidance regarding the operation of the PPP. In the event of a loss resulting from a default on a PPP loan and a determination by the SBA that there was a deficiency in the manner in which the PPP loan was originated, funded, or serviced by Middlefield Bank, the SBA may deny its liability under the guaranty, reduce the amount of the guaranty, or, if it has already paid under the guaranty, seek recovery of any loss related to the deficiency from Middlefield Bank.

Section 4013 of the CARES Act provides that banks may elect not to categorize a loan modification as a TDR if the loan modification is (1) related to COVID-19; (2) executed on a loan that was not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019; and (3) executed between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of (A) 60 days after the date on which the national emergency concerning the novel coronavirus disease (COVID–19) outbreak declared by the President on March 13, 2020, under the National Emergencies Act terminates, or (B) December 31, 2020. According to the Interagency Statement on Loan Modifications and Reporting for Financial Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus (Revised) issued by the federal bank regulatory agencies on April 7, 2020, short-term loan modifications not otherwise eligible under Section 4013 that are made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief are not TDRs. This includes short-term (e.g., six months) modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant. See Note 8 of the financial statements for additional disclosure of TDRs at June 30, 2020.

Periodically, management reviews the entire municipal bond portfolio to assess credit quality. Each security held in this portfolio is assessed on attributes that have historically influenced default incidence in the Company’s available-for-sale investmentmunicipal market, such as: sector, security, impairment filing, timeliness of disclosure, external credit assessment(s), credit spread, state, vintage, and underwriter. Municipal bonds compose 75% of the overall portfolio. While these investments have historically proven to have extremely low credit risk, the current economic environment may pose a threat to the cash flows of these governmental entities. The March 31, 2020 review shows portfolio credit quality to be strong with 99.5% of the portfolio having an assigned investment-grade rating or secured by an escrow of US government or agency securities, as80% of June 30, 2019the portfolio is an investmenteither pre-refunded or rated in the subordinated debtbroad rating categories of an Ohio-based community bankAA or AAA. While not included in the amountassessment of $4.0 million atthe credit quality of portfolio holdings, 17.6% benefit from a bond insurance policy, which provides an annual interest rateadditional layer of 6%.payment support for the securities.

 

Loans receivable.receivable. The loans receivable category consists primarily of single-family mortgage loans used to purchase or refinance personal residences located within the Company’s market area, commercial and industrial loans, home equity lines of credit, and commercial real estate loans used to finance properties that are used in the borrowers’ businesses, or to finance investor-owned rental properties, and, to a lesser extent, construction and consumer loans. The portfolio is well disbursed, geographically, with the fourfive branches in the central Ohio market comprising 23.8%23.6% of the Company’s total loans. Since December 31, 2017, however, 79.7% of all loan growth has come from the central Ohio footprint. Net loans receivable increased $6.2$122.6 million, or 0.6%12.5%, to $990.9 million$1.10 billion as of June 30, 20192020 from $984.7$977.5 million at December 31, 2018 due to loan growth targeted in the mid-single digits.2019. Included in the total increase for loans receivable were increases in the residential real estate and commercial and industrial, CRE owner occupied, and home equity lines of credit portfolios of $9.3$150.6 million, or 2.8%168.2%, $7.8 million, or 7.6%, and $1.7$5.0 million, or 2.0%4.4%, respectively. This increase is net of decreases in the construction and other, CRE non-owner occupied, consumer installment, commercialresidential real estate, and real estate-constructionCRE multifamily portfolios of $824,000,$665,000, or 4.9%1.0%, $1.9$1.6 million, or 0.4%0.5%, $3.2 million, or 22.2%, $7.4 million, or 3.1%, and $2.1$24.4 million, or 3.7%39.4%, respectively. The increase in the commercial and industrial portfolio includes the PPP loans issued as of June 30, 2020 of $142.7 million.

 

The Company’s Mortgage Banking operation generates loans for sale to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”). Loans held for sale on June 30, 20192020 totaled $431,000, a decrease$4.2 million, an increase of $166,000,$2.9 million, or 27.8%240.2%, from December 31, 2018.2019. This decreaseincrease is the result of fewermore saleable loans being fundedheld at quarter end. The Company recorded proceeds from the sale of $18.6 million of these loans for $495,000 in gains on sale of loans as of June 30, 2020 on the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.


 

The federal banking regulators have issued guidance for those institutions which are deemed to have concentrations in commercial real estate lending. Pursuant to the supervisory criteria contained in the guidance for identifying institutions with a potential commercial real estate concentration risk, institutions which have (1) total reported loans for construction, land development, and other land acquisitions which represent 100% or more of an institution’s total risk-based capital; or (2) total commercial real estate loans representing 300% or more of the institution’s total risk-based capital and the institution’s commercial real estate loan portfolio has increased 50% or more during the prior 36 months are identified as having potential commercial real estate concentration risk. Institutions which are deemed to have concentrations in commercial real estate lending are expected to employ heightened levels of risk management with respect to their commercial real estate portfolios, and may be required to hold higher levels of capital. The Company, like many community banks, has a concentration in commercial real estate loans, and the Company has experienced growth in its commercial real estate portfolio in recent years. At June 30, 20192020 non-owner-occupied commercial real estate loans (including construction, land and land development loans) represent 356.0%295.5% of total risk-based capital. Construction, land and land development loans represent 44.0%46.1% of total risk-based capital. Management has extensive experience in commercial real estate lending, and has implemented and continues to maintain heightened risk management procedures, and strong underwriting criteria with respect to its commercial real estate portfolio. Loan monitoring practices include but are not limited to periodic stress testing analysis to evaluate changes to cash flows, owing to interest rate increases and declines in net operating income. Nevertheless, we may be required to maintain higher levels of capital as a result of our commercial real estate concentrations, which could require us to obtain additional capital, and may adversely affect shareholder returns. The Company has an extensive capital planning policy, which includes pro-formapro forma projections including stress testing within which the Board of Directors has established internal minimum targets for regulatory capital ratios that are in excess of well-capitalized ratios.

The Company monitors daily fluctuations in unused commitments as a means of identifying potentially material drawdowns on existing lines of credit. At June 30, 2020, unused line of credit commitments is unchanged from December 31, 2019.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses and Asset Quality.Quality. The allowance for loan and lease losses decreased $124,000,increased $3.4 million, or 1.7%50.9%, to $7.3$10.2 million at June 30, 20192020 from $7.4$6.8 million at December 31, 2018.2019. For the three months ended June 30, 2019,2020, net loan charge-offs totaled $12,000,$34,000, or 0.01% of average loans, compared to net charge-offs of $259,000, or 0.11% of average loans,$12,000 for the same period in 2018.2019. To maintain the allowance for loan and lease losses, the Company recorded a provision for loan loss of $110,000$1.0 million in the three-month period ended June 30, 2019.2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, net loan charge-offs totaled $474,000,$298,000, or 0.10%0.06% of average loans, compared to net charge-offs of $108,000,$474,000, or 0.02%,0.10% of average loans, for the same period in 2018.2019. To maintain the allowance for loan and lease losses, the Company recorded a provision for loan loss of $350,000$3.7 million in the six-month period ended June 30, 2019. During2020. The ratio of the allowance for loan and lease losses to nonperforming loans was 104.2% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, compared to 68.1% for the same period in the prior year. This is due to an increase in impaired loans and the allowance being adjusted to address the economic slowdown during the six months ended June 30, 2019, one central Ohio2020. See additional discussions on the provision for loan of $3.2 million negatively affected nonperforming loans.  The reserve for this credit is $656,000. The issue is isolated to this particular borrower and it is not indicative of a trend in the market, portfolio, or an issue in underwriting. Offsetting this amount is a reserve reduction of $358,000 due to a charge off of $336,000, as well as a reserve reduction of $435,000 from the payoff of one commercial real estate loan.losses section below.

 

Management analyzes the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses regularly through reviews of the performance of the loan portfolio considering economic conditions, changes in interest rates and the effect of such changes on real estate values, and changes in the amount and composition of the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan and lease losses is a significant estimate that is particularly susceptible to changes in the near term. Management’s analysis includes a review of all loans designated as impaired, historical loan loss experience, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, current interest rates, trends in the borrower’s industry and other factors that management believes warrant recognition in providing for an appropriate allowance for loan and lease losses. Future additions or reductions to the allowance for loan and lease losses will be dependent on these factors. Additionally, the Company uses an outside party to conduct an independent review of commercial and commercial real estate loans that is designed to validate management conclusions of risk ratings and the appropriateness of the allowance allocated to these loans. The Company uses the results of this review to help determine the effectiveness of policies and procedures and to assess the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses allocated to these types of loans. Management believes the allowance for loan and lease losses is appropriately stated at June 30, 2019.2020. Based on the variables involved and management’s judgments about uncertain outcomes, the determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses is considered a critical accounting policy.

 

Goodwill. The Company considers the negative economic impact resulting from the COVID-19 shutdowns to be a triggering event necessitating a mid-cycle analysis for impairment. Based on the analysis performed as of March 31, 2020, the Company determined that goodwill was not impaired.

Accrued Interest Receivable and Other Assets. Accrued interest receivable and other assets increased $4.4 million, or 41.0%, to $15.1 million at June 30, 2020 from $10.7 million at December 31, 2019. Income receivable on loans has increased $2.1 million as a result of the COVID-19 payment deferral program. Also included in this increase are increases in FHLB stock owned of $1.6 million, other real estate owned of $532,000, and an increase in the holding company franchise tax asset of $551,000.


35

 

Nonperforming assets. Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans, loans 90 days or more past due, other real estate owned, and repossessed assets. Real estate owned is written down to fair value at its initial recording and continually monitored for changes in fair value. A loan is classified as nonaccrual when, in the opinion of management, there are serious doubts about collectability of interest and principal. Accrual of interest is discontinued on a loan when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions, the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of principal and interest is doubtful. Payments received on nonaccrual loans are applied against principal until doubt about collectability ceases.

Nonperforming loans exclude TDRs that are performing in accordance with their terms over a prescribed period of time. TDRs are those loans which the Company, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that the Company would not otherwise consider. The Company has 2625 TDRs accruing interest with a balance of $2.9$2.8 million as of June 30, 2019.2020. A TDR that yields a market interest rate at the time of restructuring and is in compliance with its modified terms is no longer reported as a TDR in calendar years after the year in which the restructuring took place. To be in compliance with its modified terms, a loan that is a TDR must not be in nonaccrual status and must be current or less than 30 days past due on its contractual principal and interest payments under the modified repayment terms. Nonperforming loans secured by real estate totaled $9.6$9.1 million as of June 30, 2019,2020, an increase of $4.0$1.3 million from $5.6$7.8 million at December 31, 2018.2019.

 

A major factor in determining the appropriateness of the allowance for loan and lease losses is the type of collateral which secures the loans. Of the total nonperforming loans at June 30, 2019, 90.9%2020, 93.3% were secured by real estate. Although this does not insure against all losses, real estate typically provides for at least partial recovery, even in a distressed-sale and declining-value environment. The Company’s objective is to minimize the future loss exposure of the Company.

Deposits. The Company considers various sources when evaluating funding needs, including but not limited to deposits, which are a significant source of funds, totaling $1.05$1.16 billion or 98.5%103.9% of the Company’s total average funding sources at June 30, 2019.2020. Total deposits increased $35.4$137.4 million, or 3.5%13.5%, at June 30, 20192020 from $1.02 billion at December 31, 2018.2019. The total increase in deposits is the net of increases in time and interest-bearingnoninterest-bearing demand deposits, of $110.1 million, or 36.6%, and $2.2 million, or 2.3%, respectively, and decreases in noninterest-bearinginterest-bearing demand deposits, savings, and money market deposits of $4.6$79.4 million, or 2.3%41.5%, $28.4$28.9 million, or 12.8%26.8%, $26.5 million, or 13.8%, and $43.8$8.0 million, or 22.3%5.0%, respectively, and a decrease in time deposits of $5.4 million, or 1.5%, at June 30, 2020, as some maturing certificates are not being renewed in the current low interest rate environment. Included in the net increase are $58.8 million of new PPP deposits. The Company uses certain non-core funding instruments in order to grow the balance sheet and maintain liquidity. These deposits, either from a broker or a listing service, were $54.9 million at June 30, 2020, as compared to $117.1 million at December 31, 2019.

 

Borrowed funds. The Company uses short-term and long-term borrowings as another source of funding for asset growth and liquidity needs. These borrowings primarily include FHLB advances, junior subordinated debt, short-term borrowings from other banks, and federal funds purchased. Short-term borrowings decreased $5.4increased $15.3 million or 6.0%, to $85.0$20.4 million as of June 30, 2019.2020. Other borrowings increased $3.6$4.4 million, or 41.4%34.6%, to $12.4$17.2 million as of June 30, 20192020 from $8.8$12.8 million as of December 31, 2018. This increase is mainly due to the adoption of ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” effective January 1, 2019, which resulted in the recording of financial lease liabilities in the amount of $2.7 million (see Note 9). This quarter, the Company tested its ability to shift off balance sheet liquidity to the balance sheet by borrowing an advance of $80.0 million for one day.2019.

Stockholders’ equity. Stockholders’ equity increased $6.0$2.9 million, or 4.7%2.1%, to $134.3$140.7 million at June 30, 20192020 from $128.3$137.8 million at December 31, 2018.2019. This growthincrease was the result of increases in retained earnings of $2.1 million, AOCI of $1.9 million, and common stock of $4.5 million, $1.5 million, and $665,000, respectively.$105,000. This increase is net of an increase in treasury stock of $706,000,$1.2 million, or 5.2%7.6%, to $14.2$16.9 million as of June 30, 2019,2020, from $13.5$15.7 million as of December 31, 2018.2019. The change in retained earnings is due to the year-to-date net income offset by dividends paid, the change in AOCI is due to fair value adjustments of available-for-sale securities, the change in common stock is due to regular stock grants and dividend reinvestment and purchase plan distributions, and the change in treasury stock is due to the Company repurchasing 17,74758,200 of its outstanding shares during the six months ended June 30, 2019.2020.

 

The Company suspended its stock repurchase program as a result of the economic slowdown and the focus on capital preservation. The suspension will continue until economic clarity arises and the Company is certain it is the best use of capital.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Diluted earnings per share for this six-month period increaseddecreased to $1.93,$0.62, compared to $1.76 for$0.97 from the same period in 2018.2019.

 

The Company’s annualized return on average assets (“ROA”) and return on average equity (“ROE”) for the quarter were 1.09%0.90% and 9.79%8.56%, respectively, compared with 1.11%1.09% and 10.08%9.79% for the same period in 2018.2019. The Company’s ROA and ROE for the six-month period were 1.05%0.78% and 9.58%5.79%, respectively, compared with 1.03%1.05% and 9.42%9.58% for the same period in 2018.2019.

 

Net interest income. Net interest income, the primary source of revenue for the Company, is determined by the interest rate spread, which is defined as the difference between income on earning assets and the cost of funds supporting those assets, and the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Management periodically adjusts the mix of assets and liabilities, as well as the rates earned or paid on those assets and liabilities, in order to manage and improve net interest income. The level of interest rates and changes in the amount and composition of interest-earning assets and liabilities affect the Company’s net interest income. Management’s goal is to maintain a balance between steady net interest income growth and the risks associated with interest rate fluctuations.

 

Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 20192020 totaled $10.3$10.7 million, an increase of 4.8%4.4% from that reported in the comparable period of 2018.2019. The net interest margin was 3.65%3.49% for the second quarter of 2019, down2020, a decrease from the 3.74%3.65% reported for the same quarter of 2018.2019. The decline in the net interest margin is attributable to a 4356 basis points increasepoint decrease in total interest bearing liabilitiesloans receivable yield along with a 198 basis point decrease in the yield on interest-earning deposits with other banks. This decline was partially offset by an increase in average loan balances of 26$89.8 million or 9.0%. PPP loans reduced the net interest margin for the second quarter by 10 basis points infrom the yield on total interest earning assets for the three-month period ended June 30, 2019.first quarter of 2020. Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 20192020 totaled $20.5$20.8 million, an increase of 4.0%1.3% from that reported in the comparable period of 2018.2019. The net interest margin was 3.67%3.56% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, down2020, a decrease from the 3.78%3.67% reported for the comparable period of 2018.2019. The decline in the net interest margin is attributable to a 4635 basis points increasepoint decrease in total interest bearing liabilitiesloans receivable yield along with a 152 basis point decrease in the yield on interest-earning deposits with other banks. This decline was partially offset by an increase in average loan balances of 25 basis points$36.7 million or 3.7%. The Company’s net interest margin may be subject to further decline as a result of the abrupt decrease in interest rates during the yieldfirst quarter of 2020, the reduced interest income on totalfloating-rate commercial loans, and the business disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. As the Company is in an asset-sensitive position, reductions in market interest earningrates have a negative impact on margin as the Company’s interest-earning assets forreprice faster than its interest-bearing liabilities. Much of our asset-sensitivity is due to commercial and consumer loans that have variable interest rates. Both loan types have floor rates. The benefit of these floors will become more evident in future quarters if the six-month periodFederal Reserve maintains short-term interest rates at the low level established in March 2020. For the three months ended June 30, 2019.

The decreases in costs were primarily due to decreasing interest rates on all deposit products in response to the unprecedented decrease in the targeted federal funds rate in March 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic could result in lower levels of deposits in future periods, which could decrease our average interest-bearing deposits for the remainder of 2020. Also, as a result of the reductions in the targeted federal funds interest rate, as well as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we expect that our net interest income and $7.7 million, or 36.4%, respectively.   net interest margin could decrease in future periods.

 

Provision for loan losses. The provision for loan losses represents the charge to income necessary to adjust the allowance for loan and lease losses to an amount that represents management’s assessment of the estimated probable incurred credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Each quarter, management performs a review of estimated probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio. Based on this review, a provision for loan losses of $110,000$1.0 million was recorded for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, a decrease2020, an increase of $100,000, or 47.6%,$890,000 from the quarter ended June 30, 2018.2019. A provision for loan losses of $350,000$3.7 million was recorded for the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, a decrease2020, an increase of $70,000, or 16.7%,$3.4 million from the same period in 2018. 2019. The Company remains confident in the conservative and disciplined approach to credit and risk management. However, the economic challenges caused by the COVID-19 crisis has an immediate impact on credit quality.

At June 30, 2020, we considered the effect of the economic shutdown to combat COVID-19 on our borrowers and local economy. Although stimulus and mitigation efforts are expected to reduce the impact, we believe a 20 basis point increase to the economic qualitative factor was warranted. Most of the increased provision is the result of increases to the current economic condition’s qualitative factors. The impact of those increases for the six months ended June 30, 2020 is (in thousands):

Analysis of Changes in Net Interest Income. The following table analyzes the changes in interest income and interest expense, between the three-month periods ended June 30, 20192020 and 2018,2019, in terms of: (1) changes in volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and (2) changes in yields and rates. The table reflects the extent to which changes in the Company’s interest income and interest expense are attributable to changes in rate (change in rate multiplied by prior period volume), changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior period rate) and changes attributable to the combined impact of volume/rate (change in rate multiplied by change in volume). The changes attributable to the combined impact of volume/rate are allocated on a consistent basis between the volume and rate variances.

Analysis of Changes in Net Interest Income. The following table analyzes the changes in interest income and interest expense, between the six-month periods ended June 30, 20192020 and 2018,2019, in terms of: (1) changes in volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and (2) changes in yields and rates. The table reflects the extent to which changes in the Company’s interest income and interest expense are attributable to changes in rate (change in rate multiplied by prior period volume), changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior period rate) and changes attributable to the combined impact of volume/rate (change in rate multiplied by change in volume). The changes attributable to the combined impact of volume/rate are allocated on a consistent basis between the volume and rate variances.

LIQUIDITYLIQUIDITY

 

Management's objective in managing liquidity is maintaining the ability to continue meeting the cash flow needs of banking customers, such as borrowings or deposit withdrawals, as well as the Company’s own financial commitments. The principal sources of liquidity are net income, loan payments, maturing and principal reductions on securities and sales of securities available for sale, federal funds sold and cash and deposits with banks. The Company introducedoffers a new line of retail deposit products during the second quarter of 2019. These products were created to more closely align with customer expectations while expanding the Company’s core funding base. Along with its liquid assets, the Company has additional sources of liquidity available to ensure that adequate funds are available as needed. These include, but are not limited to, the purchase of federal funds, the ability to borrow funds under line of credit agreements with correspondent banks and a borrowing agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (the “FHLB”), and the adjustment of interest rates to obtain depositors. Management believes the Company has the capital adequacy, profitability and reputation to meet the current and projected needs of its customers.

 

At June 30, 2020, additional borrowing capacity at the FHLB was $383.3 million, as compared to $273.4 million at December 31, 2020. This increase was the result of collateralizing additional assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2019,2020, wholesale funding decreased $52.2 million. The Company also has the option of borrowing from the Federal Reserve discount window with any assets not currently pledged elsewhere. Management believes that the combination of high levels of potentially liquid assets, cash flows from operations, and additional borrowing capacity provided Middlefield Bank with strong liquidity as of June 30, 2020. Management plans to continually monitor liquidity in future periods to look for signs of stress resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash from operating activities consisted mainly of depreciation and amortization of premises and equipment and software, the provision for loan losses, net amortization of securities, earnings on bank-owned life insurance, accretion of net deferred loan fees, and net changes in other assets and liabilities. For a more detailed illustration of sources and uses of cash, refer to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

 


INFLATION

 

Substantially all of the Company's assets and liabilities relate to banking activities and are monetary in nature. The consolidated financial statements and related financial data are presented in accordance with GAAP. GAAP currently requires the Company to measure the financial position and results of operations in terms of historical dollars, with the exception of securities available for sale, impaired loans and other real estate loans that are measured at fair value. Changes in the value of money due to rising inflation can cause purchasing power loss.

 

Management's opinion is that movements in interest rates affect the financial condition and results of operations to a greater degree than changes in the rate of inflation. It should be noted that interest rates and inflation do affect each other, but do not always move in correlation with each other. The Company's ability to match the interest sensitivity of its financial assets to the interest sensitivity of its liabilities in its asset/liability management may tend to minimize the effect of changes in interest rates on the Company's performance.

 

REGULATORY MATTERS

 

The Company is subject to the regulatory requirements of the Federal Reserve System as a bank holding company. The bank subsidiary is subject to regulations of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions.

 

The Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC have extensive authority to prevent and to remedy unsafe and unsound practices and violations of applicable laws and regulations by institutions and holding companies. The agencies may assess civil money penalties, issue cease-and-desist or removal orders, seek injunctions, and publicly disclose those actions. In addition, the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions possesses enforcement powers to address violations of Ohio banking law by Ohio-chartered banks.

 

44

REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

 

Financial institution regulators have established guidelines for minimum capital ratios for banks, thrifts and bank and thrift holding companies. The net unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale securities is generally not included in computing regulatory capital. In order to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments, Middlefield Bank and the Company must each hold a capital conservation buffer above the adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios. The implementation of the capital ratio buffer began January 1, 2016 at the 0.625% level and has been fully phased in over a four-year period (increasing by that amount on each subsequent January 1, until it reached 2.5% on January 1, 2019). Within the tabular presentation that follows is the adequately capitalized ratio plus capital conservation buffer that includes the fully phased-in 2.50% buffer.

 

Middlefield Bank and the Company met each of the well-capitalized ratio guidelines at June 30, 2019.2020. The following table indicates the capital ratios for Middlefield Bank and Company at June 30, 20192020 and December 31, 2018.2019.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

 

The primary objective of the Company’s asset and liability management function is to maximize the Company’s net interest income while simultaneously maintaining an acceptable level of interest rate risk given the Company’s operating environment, capital and liquidity requirements, performance objectives and overall business focus. The principal determinant of the exposure of the Company’s earnings to interest rate risk is the timing difference between the re-pricing or maturity of interest-earning assets and the re-pricing or maturity of interest-bearing liabilities. The Company’s asset and liability management policies are designed to decrease interest rate sensitivity primarily by shortening the maturities of interest-earning assets while at the same time extending the maturities of interest-bearing liabilities. The Board of Directors of the Company continues to believe in a strong asset/liability management process in order to insulate the Company from material and prolonged increases in interest rates.

 

The Company’s Board of Directors has established an Asset and Liability Management Committee consisting of outside directors and senior management. This committee, which meets quarterly, generally monitors various asset and liability management policies and strategies.

 

45

Interest Rate Sensitivity Simulation Analysis

 

The Company engages an external consultant to facilitate income simulation modeling on a quarterly basis. This modeling measures interest rate risk and sensitivity. The Asset and Liability Management Committee of the Company believes the various rate scenarios of the simulation modeling enable the Company to more accurately evaluate and manage the exposure of interest rate fluctuations on net interest income, the yield curve, various loan and mortgage-backed security prepayments, and deposit decay assumptions.

 

Earnings simulation modeling and assumptions about the timing and volatility of cash flows are critical in net portfolio equity valuation analysis. Particularly important are the assumptions driving mortgage prepayments and expected attrition of the core deposit portfolios. These assumptions are based on the Company’s historical experience and industry standards and are applied consistently across all rate risk measures.

 

The Company has established the following guidelines for assessing interest rate risk:

 

Net interest income simulation (“NII”) - Projected net interest income over the next twelve months will not be reduced by more than 10% given a gradual shift (i.e., over 12 months) in interest rates of up to 200 basis points (+ or -) and assuming no balance sheet growth.

 

Portfolio equity simulation - Portfolio equity is the net present value of the Company’s existing assets and liabilities. The Company uses an Economic Value of Equity (“EVE”) analysis which shows the estimated changes in portfolio equity taking certain long-term shock rates into consideration. Given a 200 basis point immediate and permanent increase in market interest rates, portfolio equity may not correspondingly decrease or increase by more than 20% of stockholders’ equity. Given a 200100 basis point immediate and permanent decrease in market interest rates, portfolio equity may not correspondingly decrease or increase by more than 10% of stockholders’ equity.

 


The following table presents the simulated impact of a 200 basis point upward or 200100 basis point downward shift of market interest rates on net interest income, and the change in portfolio equity. This analysis was done assuming the interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability levels at June 30, 20192020 and December 31, 20182019 remained constant. The impact of the market rate movements was developed by simulating the effects of rates changing gradually over a one-year period from the June 30, 20192020 and December 31, 20182019 levels for net interest income and portfolio equity. The impact of market rate movements was developed by simulating the effects of an immediate and permanent change in rates at June 30, 20192020 and December 31, 20182019 for portfolio equity:

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

 

The Company’s critical accounting estimates involving the more significant judgments and assumptions used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2019,2020, have remained unchanged from December 31, 2018.2019.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Controls and Procedures Disclosure

 

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are, to the best of their knowledge, effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. Subsequent to the date of their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that there were no significant changes in internal control or in other factors that could significantly affect the Company’s internal controls, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

 

46

A material weakness is a significant deficiency (as defined in Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 2), or a combination of significant deficiencies, that results in there being more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by management or employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, the Company and MBC may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of their normal course of business. Currently, the Company and MBC are not involved in any legal proceedings the outcome of which, in management’s opinion, would be material to their financial condition or results of operations.

 

Item 1a. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the following risk factor represents material updates and additions to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Additional risks not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, may also adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Further, to the extent that any of the information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitutes forward-looking statements, the risk factor set forth below also is a cautionary statement identifying important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of us.

The economic impact of the novel COVID-19 outbreak could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

In December 2019, a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) was reported in China, and, in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared it a pandemic. On March 12, 2020, the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States a national emergency. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant economic dislocation in the United States as many state and local governments have ordered non-essential businesses to close and residents to shelter in place at home. This has resulted in an unprecedented slow-down in economic activity and a related increase in unemployment. Since the COVID-19 outbreak, more than 32 million people have filed claims for unemployment. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Federal Reserve Board has reduced the benchmark federal funds rate to a target range of 0% to 0.25%, and the yields on 10 and 30-year treasury notes have declined to historic lows. Various state governments and federal agencies have encouraged lenders to provide forbearance and other relief to borrowers (e.g., waiving late payment and other fees). The federal banking agencies encouraged financial institutions to prudently work with affected borrowers and issued guidance providing relief from reporting loan classifications due to modifications related to the COVID-19 outbreak. Certain industries have been particularly hard-hit, including the travel and hospitality industry, the restaurant industry and the retail industry. Finally, the spread of the coronavirus has caused us to modify our business practices, including employee travel, employee work locations, and cancellation of physical participation in meetings, events and conferences. We may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers and business partners.


47

 

Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the circumstances, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our business. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including when COVID-19 can be controlled and when and how the economy may be reopened. As the result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the related adverse local and national economic consequences, we could be subject to any of the following risks, any of which could have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations:

Item 1a.

There are no material changesdemand for our products and services may decline, making it difficult to the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Please refer to that section for disclosures regarding the risksincrease our assets and uncertainties related to the Company’s business.income;

 

Item 2.

Unregistered Salesif the economy is unable to substantially reopen, and high levels of Equity Securitiesunemployment continue for an extended period of time, loan delinquencies, nonperforming assets, and Useforeclosures may increase, resulting in increased loan charge-offs and additions to loan loss reserves and reduced income;

collateral for loans, especially real estate, may decline in value, which could cause loan losses to increase;

our allowance for loan losses may have to be increased if borrowers experience financial difficulties beyond forbearance periods, which will adversely affect our net income;

the net worth and liquidity of Proceedsloan guarantors may decline, impairing their ability to honor commitments to us;

as the result of the decline in the Federal Reserve Board’s target federal funds rate, the yield on our assets may decline to a greater extent than the decline in our cost of interest-bearing liabilities, reducing our net interest margin and spread and reducing net income;

a material decrease in net income or a net loss over several quarters could result in a decrease in the rate of our quarterly cash dividend;

we rely on third party vendors for certain services and the unavailability of a critical service due to the COVID-19 outbreak could have an adverse effect on us; and

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation premiums may increase if the agency experiences additional resolution costs for bank failures.

Any one or a combination of the factors identified above could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations and prospects.
