MIDDLEFIELD BANC CORP.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The consolidated financial statements of Middlefield Banc Corp. ("Company") include its bank subsidiary, The Middlefield Banking Company (“MBC” or “Middlefield Bank”), and a nonbank asset resolution subsidiary EMORECO, Inc. The consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of MBC’s subsidiary, Middlefield Investments, Inc. (MI), established March 13, 2019. . All significant inter-company items have been eliminated.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements.  The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.2020.  The interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring items) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented.  The results of operations for the interim periods disclosed herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.  

 

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and liabilities as of the balance sheet date and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 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 affected 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. With certain exceptions, transition to the new requirements will be through a cumulative-effect adjustment to opening retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10,Financial Instruments ‒ Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842). This Update defers theis 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. We expect to recognize a one-time cumulative-effect adjustment to the allowance for loan losses as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the new standard is effective but cannot yet determine the magnitude of any such one-time adjustment or the overall impact of the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements. Management will continue to monitor model output throughout the deferral period.

 

CECL Adoption. The Company continues to monitor the opportunity to early adopt ASC Topic 326, which replaces the current incurred loss approach for measuring credit losses with an expected loss model ("CECL"). CECL applies to financial assets subject to credit losses and measured at amortized cost and certain off-balance-sheet credit exposures, which include, but are not limited to, loans, leases, held-to-maturity securities, loan commitments and financial guarantees. The adoption of this guidance is expected to result in an increase of the allowance for credit losses, an increase in the allowance for unfunded commitments, and a reduction of retained earnings. Incurred loss will be used until the tax benefits associated with increased reserves are maximized. Management may consider early adoption of CECL, which would have no initial impact to the income statement.

In November 2019,May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 20192021-11,04, Codification ImprovementsEarnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt – Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), which requires an entity to Topictreat a modification of an equity-classified warrant that does 326,not Financial Instruments – Credit Losses,cause the warrant 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;become liability-classified as an accounting policy election can be made to adjust the effective interest rate for existing troubled debt restructurings based on the prepayment assumptions insteadexchange of the prepayment assumptions applicable immediately priororiginal warrant for a new warrant.

An entity should measure the effect of a modification as the difference between the fair value of the modified warrant and the fair value of that warrant immediately before modification. The effective datesamendments in this Update are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years.

Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period.

In March 2020,July 2021, the FASB issued ASU 20202021-305, Leases (Topic 842),Codification Improvements which amends ASC 842 so that lessors are no longer required to Financial Instruments. This ASU was issuedrecognize a selling loss upon commencement of a lease with variable lease payments that, prior to improvethe amendments, would have been classified as a sales-type or direct financing lease. Furthermore, a lessor must classify as an operating lease any lease that would otherwise be classified as a sales-type or direct financing lease and clarify various financial instruments topics, includingthat would result in the current expected credit losses (CECL) standard issued in 2016. The ASUrecognition of a selling loss at lease commencement, provided that the lease includes seven issuesvariable lease payments 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 aredo not expected to significantly change practice for most entities. Among its provisions, the ASU clarifies that all entities, other thandepend on an index or rate. For public business entities and certain not-for-profit entities and employee benefit plans that elected the fair value option, are required to provide certain fair value disclosures underhave adopted 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 the contractual term used to measure expected credit losses under Topic 326.

Reclassification of Comparative Amounts

 

Certain comparative amounts for prior years have been reclassified to conform to current-year presentations. Such reclassifications did not affect net income or retained earnings.

NOTE 2 REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 606,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (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 92.4%91.1% 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.

 

GainsNet gains (losses) on sale of other real estate owned (“OREO”(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 Company recognizes restricted stock forfeitures in the period they occur.

 

Share-based compensation expense of $294,000$97,000 and $0$294,000 was recognized for the three-month periods ended June 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, respectively. Share-based compensation expense (recovery) of $97,000 and ($113,000) and $90,000 was recognized for the six-month periods ended June 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, respectively. The expense recovery recorded for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 is the result of the decrease in the market valuationsvaluation of the plans for December 31, 2019. plans. 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$594,000 and $236,000$581,000 at June 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, 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, 20202021 totals $374,000,$719,000, of which $124,000$227,000 is estimated for the rest of 2020, $180,000 for 2021, $63,000$292,000 for 2022, and $7,000$176,000 for 2023.2023, and $24,000 for 2024.

NOTE 5- FAIR 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 III:

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

 

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

 

14

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.

The beginning balance of the level III investments was $7.3 million, which increased due to purchases of $1.9 million, and increased by $100,000 due to change in fair value during the period resulting in an ending balance of $9.3 million.

 

Investment Securities Available for Sale - 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). Securities for which the pricing service is unable to calculate a market price are reported at book value and are classified under the Level III measurement.

 

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.

 

14

The following tables present the assets measured on a non-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 induring the six months ended June 30, 2020.2021.

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-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 $2.1$1.2 million and $838,000 as of June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019.2020, respectively.

Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) – OREO is carried at the lower of cost or fair value, which is measured at the date of foreclosure. If the fair value of the collateral exceeds the carrying amount of the loan, no charge-off or adjustment is necessary, the loan is not considered to be carried at fair value, and is therefore not included in the above table. If the fair value of the collateral is less than the carrying amount of the loan, management will charge the loan down to its estimated realizable value. The fair value of OREO is based on the appraised value of the property, which is generally unadjusted by management and is based on comparable sales for similar properties in the same geographic region as the subject property, and is included in the above table as a Level II measurement. 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. In these cases, the loans are categorized in the above table as a Level III measurement since these adjustments are considered to be unobservable inputs. Income and expenses from operations and further declines in the fair value of the collateral subsequent to foreclosure are included in net expenses from OREO.

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

There were no18 securities considered temporarily impaired at June 30, 2020.2021.

 

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 90%78% of the total available-for-sale portfolio as of June 30, 20202021 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;

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;

 

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, 20202021 and 2019,2020, there were no0 available-for-sale debt securities with an unrealized loss that suffered OTTI. Management does not believe any individual unrealized loss as of June 30, 20202021 or December 31, 20192020 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.

NOTE 8- LOANS AND RELATED ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES

 

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, and 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 following tables summarize the primary segments of the loan portfolio and allowance for loan and lease losses (in thousands):

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”), Home Equity Lines of Credit (“HELOC”), Construction and Other (“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. Although PPP loans are included with C&I loans, the nature of PPP loans differs considerably from the rest of the category. Loans funded through the PPP program are fully guaranteed by the U.S. government. This guarantee exists at the inception of the loans and throughout the lives of the loans and was not entered into separately and apart from the loans. 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 CRE, RRE, C&I, HELOC, and Construction portfolios were partially offset by a decrease in the allowance for the Consumer Installment portfolios.

 

22

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-point internal risk-rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio. The first five 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. 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, 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 $128,000$124,000 for the three months ended June 30, 20202021 and $47,000$126,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2019.2020. Interest income that would have been recorded had these loans not been placed on nonaccrual status was $228,000$183,000 for the six months ended June 30, 20202021 and $342,000$179,000 for the yearsix months ended December 31, 2019.2020.

 

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 310-10-35 for loans individually evaluated for impairment (discussed above) and ASC Subtopic 450-20 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. See Note 9 of the financial statements for disclosure of COVID-19 loan forbearance programs.

 

OnAdditionally, 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.TDRs (see Note 9).

NOTENOTE 9 STOCK SPLIT DISCLOSURE

On October 9, 2019, the Board of Directors of Middlefield Banc Corp. authorized a two-for-one stock split.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, or CARES Act, was signed into law on March 27, 2020, and authorized the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) to temporarily guarantee loans under a new 7(a) loan program called the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). Asas a qualified SBA lender, we were automatically authorized to originate PPP loans. During the 12 months endedJune 30, 2021, we originated $70.1 million of loans under the PPP and helped customers receive $122.4 million of forgiveness payments under the terms of the program. The balance of PPP loans outstanding at June 30, 2021 approximates $90.2 million.

On December 27, 2020, President Trump signed another COVID-19 relief bill that extended and modified several provisions of the PPP. This included an additional allocation of $284 billion for PPP loans. The SBA reactivated the PPP on January 11, 2021. Middlefield Bank has originated additional PPP loans through the PPP, which was extended through May 31, 2021. In the six months ended June 30, 2021, Middlefield Bank had generated and received SBA approval on 683 PPP loans totaling $67.6 million and received $3.0 million in related deferred PPP fees under the 2021 PPP authorization.

 

As of June 30, 2020,2021, we approved 1,343 applications for up to $142.7 million of loans under the PPP.

As of June 30, 2020, we modified 3628 loans aggregating $214.8$17.7 million primarily consistingwere modified for deferral, compared to 11 loans aggregating $24.5 million at December 31, 2020. Modifications consist of the deferral of principal and interest payments and the extension of the maturity date for up to three months.

An eligible business can apply for a PPP loan up to the greater of: (1) 2.5 times its average monthly payroll costs; or (2) $10.0 million. PPP loans will have: (a) an interest rate of 1.0%, (b) a two-year loan term to maturity; and (c) principal and interest payments deferred for six months from the date of disbursement. The SBA will guarantee 100% of the PPP loans made to eligible borrowers. The entire principal amount of the borrower’s PPP loan, including any accrued interest, is eligible to be reduced by the loan forgiveness amount under the PPP so long as employee and compensation levels of the business are maintained and 75% of the loan proceeds are used for payroll expenses, with the remaining 25% of the loan proceeds used for other qualifying expenses.

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.

 

31

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.

 

COVID-19 Loan Forbearance Programs. 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 StatementStatement 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.(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, 2020.2021.

While we believe we are operating in compliance with the FinCEN guidelines, there can be no assurance that federal enforcement guidelines will not change. Federal prosecutors have significant discretion and there can be no assurance that the federal prosecutors will not choose to strictly enforce the federal laws governing cannabis. Any change in the Federal government’s enforcement position, could cause us to immediately cease providing banking services to the cannabis industry. We are upfront with our customers regarding the fact that we may have to terminate our relationship if a change occurs with the Federal government’s position and that the termination may come with little or no notice.

June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, deposit balances from cannabis customers were approximately $13.1 million and $11.8 million, or 1.1% and 1.0% of total deposits, respectively.

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.

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 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.

To maintain the allowance for loan and lease losses, the Company recorded a provision for loan loss of $3.7 million$900,000 in the six-month period ended June 30, 2020.2021. The ratio of the allowance for loan and lease losses to nonperforming loans was 104.2%182.99% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020,2021, compared to 68.1%104.15% 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 duringsince the six months ended June 30, 2020. See additional discussions onbeginning of the provision for loan losses section below.COVID-19 pandemic.

 

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, 2020.2021. 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 carrying value of goodwill was $15.1 million at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The Company considersperforms a periodic quantitative analysis of goodwill using multiple approaches. The primary methodology is the negative economic impact resulting fromdiscounted cash flow approach, while also considering a market approach of comparing to multiples of similar public companies as well as market price with control premiums.

Each of the COVID-19 shutdownsvaluation methods used by the Company requires significant assumptions. Depending on the specific method, assumptions are made regarding growth rates, discount rates for cash flows, control premiums, and selected multiples. Changes to be a triggering event necessitating a mid-cycle analysis for impairment.any of the assumptions could result in significantly different results. Based on the most recent analysis performed as of March 31, 2020, the Company determined that goodwill was not impaired. The Company also performed a qualitative assessment of goodwill as of September 30, 2020 with no resulting goodwill impairment.

 

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 2524 TDRs accruing interest with a balance of $2.8$2.4 million as of June 30, 2020.2021. 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 $9.1$7.1 million as of June 30, 2020, an increase2021, a decrease of $1.3 million$135,000 from $7.8$7.2 million at December 31, 2019.2020.

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, 2020, 93.3%2021, 91.20% 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.

 

The allowance for loan and lease losses to total loans ratio increased from 0.69%1.22% as of December 31, 20192020 to 0.92%1.34% as of June 30, 2020.2021.

 

Deposits. The Company considers various sources when evaluating funding needs, including but not limited to deposits, which are a significant source of funds, totaling $1.16$1.20 billion or 103.9%97.5% of the Company’s total average funding sources at June 30, 2020.2021. Total deposits increased $137.4decreased $29.9 million or 13.5%, at June 30, 20202021 from $1.02$1.23 billion at December 31, 2019.2020. The total increasedecrease in deposits is the net of increases in noninterest-bearing demand deposits, interest-bearing demand deposits, and savings deposits of $35.3 million, or 12.1%, $12.0 million, or 6.1%, and $8.3 million, or 3.4%, respectively, and decreases in money market deposits of $79.4 million, or 41.5%, $28.9 million, or 26.8%, $26.5 million, or 13.8%, and $8.0 million, or 5.0%, respectively, and a decrease in time deposits of $5.4$15.0 million, or 1.5%7.6%, and $70.5 million, or 23.8%, respectively, at June 30, 2020,2021, 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$15.4 million at June 30, 2020,2021, as compared to $117.1$66.9 million at December 31, 2019.2020.

 

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 juniorfrom the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati (the “FHLB”), subordinated debt, short-term borrowings from other banks, and federal funds purchased. Short-termOther borrowings increased $15.3decreased $4.0 million, or 23.5%, to $20.4$13.0 million as of June 30, 2020. Other borrowings increased $4.4 million, or 34.6%, to $17.2 million as of June 30, 20202021 from $12.8$17.0 million as of December 31, 2019.2020.

Stockholders’Stockholders equity. Stockholders’ equity increased $2.9$2.2 million, or 2.1%1.6%, to $140.7$146.0 million at June 30, 20202021 from $137.8$143.8 million at December 31, 2019.2020. This increase was the result of increases in retained earnings of $2.1 million, AOCI of $1.9$6.6 million, and common stock of $105,000.$245,000. This increase is net of a decrease in AOCI of $391,000, and an increase in treasury stock of $1.2 million, or 7.6%, to $16.9 million as of June 30, 2020, from $15.7 million as of December 31, 2019.$4.2 million. 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, and the change in treasury stock is due to the Company repurchasing 58,200181,045 of its outstanding shares during the six months ended June 30, 2020.2021.

 

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.

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, 20202021 totaled $10.7$11.9 million, an increase of 4.4%10.8% from that reported in the comparable period of 2019.2020. The net interest margin was 3.49%3.72% for the second quarter of 2020, a decrease2021, an increase from the 3.65%3.49% reported for the same quarter of 2019.2020. The declineincrease in the net interest margin is attributable to a 56 basis point decreasean increase in loans receivable yieldthe average balance of investment securities along with a 198decrease in yield on certificates of deposits of 81 basis pointpoints and the decrease in the yield on interest-earningaverage balance of certificates of deposits with other banks. This decline was partially offset by an increase in average loan balances of $89.8 million or 9.0%. PPP loans reduced the net interest margin for the second quarter by 10 basis points from the first quarter of 2020.$116.4 million. Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 20202021 totaled $20.8$23.8 million, an increase of 1.3%14.6% from that reported in the comparable period of 2019.2020.

The declineincrease in the net interest margin is attributable to a 35 basis point decrease in loans receivable yield along withon certificates of deposits and money market deposits of 82 and 70 basis points, respectively, as well as a 152 basis point decrease in the yield on interest-earningaverage balance of certificates of deposits with other banks. This decline was partially offset by an increase in average loan balances of $36.7 million or 3.7%.$110.4 million. The Company’s net interest margin may be subject to further declinefluctuation as a result of the abrupt decrease in interest rates during the first quarterrate of 2020, the reduced interest income on floating-rate commercial loans, and the business disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.PPP loan forgiveness. As the Company is in an asset-sensitive position, reductions in market interest rates have a negative impact on margin as the Company’s interest-earning assets reprice 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 becomeis more evident in future quarters if the Federal Reserve maintains short-term interest rates at the low level established in March 2020. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the decrease in yield on interest-earning deposits with other banks led to a $213,000 decline in interest income. The $565,000 overall decrease in interest income was offset by a $1.0 million decrease in interest expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the decrease in yield on interest-earning deposits with other banks led to a $320,000 decline in interest income. The $1.0 million overall decrease in interest income was offset by a $1.3 million decrease in interest expense.current levels.

This is attributable to a decrease in interest and fees on loans of $425,000.$396,000, and is partially offset by an increase in taxable interest on investment securities of $204,000. Interest and dividend income decreased $1.0 million,$86,000, or 3.8%0.3%, for the six months ended June 30, 2020,2021, compared to the same period in the prior year. This is attributable to decreases in interest and fees on loans and tax-exempt interest on investment securities of $307,000 and $103,000, respectively. This decrease is partially offset by an increase in taxable interest on investment securities of $417,000.

This is attributable to a 35 basis point decrease in the average yield to 4.73%, partially offset by an increase in average loan balances of $36.7 million. The increase in the average loan balance2021 is due in part to the issuance of PPP loans, in 2020,from which the related gross deferred fee income of which was $927,000 as of June 30, 2020.$2.3 million.

 

Net interest earned on securities increased by $73,000$172,000 for the three months ended June 30, 20202021 when compared to the same period in the prior year.

Interest expense. Interest expense decreased $1.0$1.4 million, or 29.6%56.8%, for the three months ended June 30, 2020,2021, compared to the same period in the prior year. TheThis decrease is attributable to a decrease in the average balance of certificates of deposits and short-term borrowings of $40.7$116.4 million, or 10.4%33.22%, and $55.8 million, or 99.59%, respectively. This decrease is further attributable to decreases of 214, 48,81 and 47 and 35 basis points in short-term borrowings, savings,certificates of deposit and money market deposits, and certificates of deposits cost. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in the average balance of short-term borrowings of $42.6 million, or 319.2%.respectively. Interest expense decreased $1.3$3.1 million, or 19.4%57.6%, for the six months ended June 30, 2020,2021, compared to the same period in the prior year. TheThis decrease is attributable to decreases in the average balancesbalance of money marketcertificates of deposits and savings depositsshort-term borrowings of $15.8$110.4 million, or 8.9%30.48%, and $10.6$35.2 million, or 5.3%99.52%, respectively. This decrease is further attributable to decreases in costs of 204, 90, 40, 33,82, 81, and 2170 basis points in short-term borrowings,certificates of deposits, other borrowings, savings,and money market deposits, and certificates of deposits costs. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in the average balance of short-term borrowings of $11.0 million, or 45.2%.respectively.

 

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 impactother continuing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, we expect that our net interest income and net interest margin could decrease in future periods.pandemic.

 

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 $1.0 million$200,000 was recorded for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, an increase2021, a decrease of $890,000$800,000 from the quarter ended June 30, 2019.2020. A provision for loan losses of $3.7 million$900,000 was recorded for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, an increase2021, a decrease of $3.4$2.8 million from the same period in 2019.2020. The Company remains confident in theits 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):

For the three months ended June 30, 2020,2021, net loan charge-offs totaled $34,000,$122,000, or 0.01%0.05% of average loans, compared to net charge-offs of $12,000,$34,000, or 0.01% of average loans, for the second quarter of 2019.2020.

With the passage of the PPP, administered by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”), the Company has actively participated in 2019.assisting its customers with applications for resources through the program. At June 30, 2021, the Company carried $90.2 million of PPP loans classified as C&I loans for reporting purposes. Loans funded through the PPP program are fully guaranteed by the U.S. government. This guarantee exists at the inception of the loans and throughout the lives of the loans and was not entered into separately and apart from the loans. ASC 326 requires credit enhancements that mitigate credit losses, such as the U.S. government guarantee on PPP loans, to be considered in estimating credit losses. The guarantee is considered “embedded” and, therefore, is considered when estimating credit loss on the PPP loans. Although the loans are fully guaranteed by the U.S. government and absent any specific loss information about any of our PPP loans, the Company does provide a $361,000 qualitative provision for loan losses on its PPP loans at June 30, 2021.

Noninterest income. Noninterest income increased $196,000,$137,000, or 15.1%9.2%, for the three months ended June 30, 20202021 over the comparable 20192020 period. This increase was the result of an increase in gainsservice charges on deposit accounts of $290,000, or 51.2%, which is due to increased charges incurred including cash management fees relating to cannabis-related business. This increase is net of a decrease in gain on sale of loans of $283,000,$160,000, or 288.8%42.0%, partially offset bywhich is due to a decrease in investment securities gainsrefinancing of mortgages in the second quarter of 2021. Noninterest income increased $1.3 million, or 49.9%, during the six months ended June 30, 2021 over the comparable 2020 period. This increase was the result of increases in service charges on deposit accounts, and gain on sale net, of $190,000.loans of $524,000, or 46.8%, and $318,000, or 64.2%, respectively. There was also an increase in gain on equity securities of $250,000. The increase in gainsservice charges on deposit accounts is due to increased charges incurred including cash management fees relating to cannabis-related business and the increase in gain on sale of loans is due to an increase in refinancing of mortgages due to a decrease in rates. Noninterest income increased $138,000, or 5.7%, during the six months ended June 30, 2020 over the comparable 2019 period. This increase was the result of an increase in gains on sale of loans of $338,000, or 215.3%, partially offset by decreases in investment securities gains on sale, net, and gains on equity securities (Note 7) of $190,000, and $173,000, respectively. The increase in gains on sale of loans is due to an increase in saleable loans being sold during this time period. The decrease in investment securities gains on sale is due to no available-for-sale securities being sold during the second quarter of 2020.

 

Noninterest expense. Noninterest expense of $7.7$7.9 million for the second quarter 20202021 was 2.8%3.1%, or $207,000,$237,000, higher than the second quarter of 2019.  Data2020. Salaries and employee benefits, federal deposit insurance expense, and occupancy expense increased $185,000, or 4.5%, $76,000, or 102.7%, and $66,000, or 13.7%, respectively. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in other expense of $125,000, or 12.3%. The salary increase is mostly due to annual pay adjustments, an increase in profit sharing expense, and a decrease in restricted stock activity. The increase in federal deposit insurance expense is due to an increase in premiums, and the increase in occupancy expense is due to an increase in building maintenance services. The decrease in other expense is due to decreases in promotional, miscellaneous loan, software, postage, and corporate expenses. Noninterest expense of $16.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 was 9.0%, or $1.3 million, higher than the same period in 2020.

These increases were partially offset by a decrease in software amortization expense of $61,000, or 28.4%. The salary increase is mostly due to annual pay adjustments, an increase in profit sharing expense, and restricted stock activity. The increase in data processing costs is due to new and increased costs of processing agreements.  Theservices, and the increase in otheroccupancy expense is due to increasesan increase in directors' fees, miscellaneous loan expenses, sundry gains and losses, and pandemic response-related expenses.  Noninterest expense of $14.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 was 0.3%, or $41,000, lower than the same period in 2019.  Data processing costs and other expense increased $336,000, or 33.1%, and $264,000, or 14.3%, respectively.  These increases were offset by abuilding maintenance services.

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, 20202021 and 2019,2020, 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 offers a line of retail deposit products 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”),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, 2020,2021, additional borrowing capacity at the FHLB was $383.3$416.4 million, as compared to $273.4$401.7 million at December 31, 2020. This increase was the result of collateralizing additionalmore assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2020,2021, wholesale funding decreased $52.2$51.6 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 plans2021. Although the Company currently exhibits strong liquidity, management will continue to continually monitor liquidity in future periods to look for signs of stress resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

For the sixthree months ended June 30, 2020,2021, 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.

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 a 2.50% 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, 2020.2021. The following table indicates the capital ratios for Middlefield Bank and the Company at June 30, 20202021 and December 31, 2019.2020.

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.

46

 

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 100 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 100 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, 20202021 and December 31, 20192020 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, 20202021 and December 31, 20192020 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, 20202021 and December 31, 20192020 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, 2020,2021, have remained unchanged from December 31, 2019.2020.

 

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.

47

 

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 toThere have been no material changes in the other information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the following risk factor represents material updates and additions to theCompany’s risk factors previouslyfrom those disclosed in ourthe Company’s 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:

demand for our products and services may decline, making it difficult to increase our assets and income;

if the economy is unable to substantially reopen, and high levels of unemployment continue for an extended period of time, loan delinquencies, nonperforming assets, and foreclosures 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 loan 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.2020.

On November 13, 2020, the Company announced that the Board of Directors approved a resumption and increase of the Company’s stock repurchase program (the “Program”). The Program commenced April 19, 2019 but repurchases under the program were temporarily suspended in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. At the time the Program was suspended, the Company had repurchased 157,032 shares from the 300,000 share authorization under the Program. On November 9, 2020, the Board authorized an increase to the Program to 457,032 shares, resulting in 300,000 shares being available for repurchase. The Program may be modified, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time.
