New Accounting Standards

In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2022-02,Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU eliminate the guidance for troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) by creditors in Subtopic 310-40,Receivables-Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing and restructures by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Specifically, rather than applying the recognition and measurement guidance for TDRs, an entity must apply the loan refinancing and restructuring guidance in paragraphs 310-20-35-9 through 35-11 to determine whether a modification results in a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. For public business entities, such as HMN, the amendments in this ASU require that an entity disclose current period gross writeoffs

In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2022-02,Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures.

Specifically, rather than applying the recognition and measurement guidance for TDRs, an entity must apply the loan refinancing and restructuring guidance in paragraphs 310-20-35-9 through 35-11 to determine whether a modification results in a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. For public business entities, such as HMN, the amendments in this ASU require that an entity disclose current period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses-Measured at Amortized Cost in the vintage disclosures required by paragraph 326-20-50-6. The amendments in the ASU will be effective for entities, such as HMN, that have not yet adopted the amendments in ASU 2016-13 when ASU 2016-13 is adopted. The amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively, except as provided in the next sentence. For the transition method related to the recognition and measurement of TDRs, an entity has the option to apply a modified retrospective transition method resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings in the period of adoption. Management is in the process of evaluating the impact of this ASU on the Company’s financial statement amounts and disclosures when it is adopted in the first quarter of 2023.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments in this ASU affect all entities that measure credit losses on financial instruments including loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial asset that has a contractual right to receive cash that is not specifically excluded. The main objective of this ASU is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. To achieve this objective, the amendments in this ASU replace the incurred loss impairment methodology required in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses that requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to estimate credit losses. The amendments in this ASU will affect entities to varying degrees depending on the credit quality of the assets held by the entity, the duration of the assets held, and how the entity applies the current incurred loss methodology. The amendments in this ASU, for public business entities that are filers with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), were originally effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual periods. On November 26, 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-11,Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments Credit Losses which delayed the implementation date of ASU 2016-13 for SEC smaller reporting companies, such as HMN, from the first quarter of 2020 to the first quarter of 2023. All entities may adopt the amendments in the ASU early as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Amendments should be applied using a modified retrospective transition method by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the period in which the guidance is adopted. The Company has not early adopted this ASU. Management has accumulated the charge off information necessary to calculate the appropriate life of loan loss percentages for the various loan categories, has identified several key metrics to help identify and project anticipated changes in the credit quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio upon enactment, has identified some qualitative reserve metrics and amounts, and has prepared preliminary calculations using the new methodology as outlined in the ASU. Based on the preliminary calculations, it is anticipated that the adoption of this ASU will result in a 7% to 11% increase in the allowance for loan losses on financial instruments including loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial asset that has a contractual right to receive cash that is not specifically excluded. The main objective of this ASU is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date.

Based on the preliminary calculations it is not anticipated that the adoption of this ASU will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements when it is adopted in the first quarter of 2023.

 

On February 6, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (Topic 842)-Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119 and Update to SEC Section on Effective Date Related to Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The amendments in this ASU related to Leases (Topic 842) did not have any impact on the Company. The amendments in this ASU related to Topic 326 adds additional guidance related to the SEC’s expectations for the documentation of the measurement, review process, and the systematic methodology used by entities to determine the current credit losses under FASB ASC Topic 326. It is anticipated that this additional guidance will require periodic third party reviews of the Company’s calculation of the allowance for credit losses in subsequent periods after ASC Topic 326 is adopted in the first quarter of 2023.

Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, establishes a framework for measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities using a hierarchy system consisting of three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:

 

Level 1 - Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.

 

Level 2 - Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions are observable in the market.

 

Level 3 - Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market and are used only to the extent that observable inputs are not available. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Company’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

The following table summarizes the assets and liabilities of the Company for which fair values are determined on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

The Company may also be required, from time to time, to measure certain other financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. These adjustments to fair value usually result from the application of the lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets. The following table provides the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each adjustment and the carrying value of the related individual assets or portfolios at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 825,Disclosures about Fair Values of Financial Instruments requires interim reporting period disclosure of the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments, including assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. The fair value estimates are made as of March 31,

ASC 825,Disclosures about Fair Values of Financial Instruments requires interim reporting period disclosure of the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments, including assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. The fair value estimates are made as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 based upon relevant market information, if available, and upon the characteristics of the financial instruments themselves. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based upon judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates their fair value.

 

Securities Available for Sale

The fair values of securities were based upon quoted market prices for similar securities.

 

Equity Securities

The fair values of equity securities were based upon quoted market prices for similar securities.

 

Loans Held for Sale

The fair values of loans held for sale were based upon quoted market prices for loans with similar interest rates and terms to maturity.

 

Loans Receivable

The fair value of the loan portfolio, with the exception of the adjustable rate portfolio, was calculated by discounting the scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using anticipated prepayment speeds and using discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent in each loan portfolio. The fair value of the adjustable loan portfolio was estimated by grouping the loans with similar characteristics and comparing the characteristics of each group to the prices quoted for similar types of loans in the secondary market. The fair value disclosures for both the fixed and adjustable rate portfolios were adjusted to reflect the exit price amount anticipated to be received from the sale of the portfolio in an open market transaction.

 

Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) Stock

The carrying amount of FHLB stock approximates its fair value.

 

Accrued Interest Receivable

The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value since it is short-term in nature and does not present unanticipated credit concerns.

 

10

Deposits

The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money market account deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The fair value disclosures for all of the deposits were adjusted to reflect the exit price amount anticipated to be received from the sale of the deposits in an open market transaction.

 

10

Accrued Interest Payable

The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates its fair value since it is short-term in nature.

 

Commitments to Extend Credit

The fair values of commitments to extend credit are estimated using the fees normally charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counter parties.

 

Commitments to Sell Loans

The fair values of commitments to sell loans are estimated using the quoted market prices for loans with similar interest rates and terms to maturity.

The Company reviews its investment portfolio on a quarterly basis for indications of impairment. This review includes analyzing the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been lower than the cost, the market liquidity for the investment, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including any specific events which may influence the operations of the issuer, and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to recover the temporary loss. The unrealized losses on impaired securities other than the corporate preferred stock are the result of changes in interest rates. The unrealized losses reported for the corporate preferred stock at March 31,September 30, 2022 relates to a single trust preferred security that was issued by the holding company of a small community bank. As of March 31,September 30, 2022 all payments were current on the trust preferred security and the issuer’s subsidiary bank was considered to be well-capitalized based on its most recent regulatory filing. Based on a review of the issuer, it was determined that the trust preferred security was not other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31,September 30, 2022, as the Company does not intend to sell the security and has the intent and ability to hold it for a period of time sufficient to recover the temporary loss. Management believes that the Company will receive all principal and interest payments contractually due on the security and that the decrease in the market value is primarily due to a lack of liquidity in the market for trust preferred securities. Management will continue to monitor the credit risk of the issuer and may be required to recognize other-than-temporary impairment charges on this security in future periods.

Loans classified as special mention are loans that have potential weaknesses that, if left uncorrected, may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Bank’s credit position at some future date. Loans classified as substandard are loans that are generally inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor, or by the collateral pledged, if any. Loans classified as substandard have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. Substandard loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loans classified as doubtful have the weaknesses of those classified as substandard, with additional characteristics that make collection in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values questionable, and there is a high possibility of loss. A loan classified as loss is essentially uncollateralized and/or considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as an asset on the balance sheet may not be warranted. Loans classified as substandard or doubtful require the Bank to perform an analysis of the individual loan and charge off any loans, or portion thereof, that are deemed uncollectible.

TDR concessions can include reduction of interest rates, extension of maturity dates, forgiveness of principal and/or interest due, or acceptance of real estate or other assets in full or partial satisfaction of the debt. Loan modifications are not reported as TDRs after twelve months if the loan was modified at a market rate of interest for comparable risk loans, and the loan is performing in accordance with the terms of the restructured agreement for the entire twelve month period. All loans classified as TDRs are considered to be impaired.

 

When a loan is modified in a TDR, there may be a direct, material impact on the loans within the consolidated balance sheets, as principal balances may be partially forgiven. The financial effects of TDRs are presented in the following table and represent the difference between the outstanding recorded balance pre-modification and post-modification, for the three and ninemonths ended March 31,September 30, 2022 and March 31, 2021.

There were 0no loans that were restructured within the twelve months precedingended March 31, 2022 and March 31,September 30, 2021 that subsequently defaulted during the three and ninemonths ended March 31, 2022 and March 31,September 30, 2021.

 

The Company considers a loan to have defaulted when it becomes 90 or more days past due under the modified terms, when it is placed in non-accrual status, when it becomes other real estate owned, or when it becomes non-compliant with some other material requirement of the modification agreement. Loans that were non-accrual prior to modification remain on non-accrual status for at least six months following modification. Non-accrual TDR loans that have performed according to the modified terms for six months may be returned to accrual status. Loans that were accruing prior to modification remain on accrual status after the modification as long as the loan continues to perform under the new terms.

 

TDRs are reviewed for impairment following the same methodology as other impaired loans. For loans that are collateral-dependent, the value of the collateral is reviewed and additional reserves may be added as needed. Loans that are not collateral-dependent may have additional reserves established if deemed necessary. The reserves for TDRs were $0.2$0.1 million, or 2.4%0.7%, of the total $9.6$10.1 million in loan loss reserves at March 31,September 30, 2022 and $0.2 million, or 2.6%, of the total $9.3 million in loan loss reserves at December 31, 2021.

 

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was signed into law on March 27, 2020 and the Bank’s regulators issued the Interagency Statement on Loan Modification and Reporting for Financial Institutions Working with Customers Affected by the Coronavirus on April 7, 2020. Section 4013 of the CARES Act temporarily allowed the Bank to grant modifications of loans to borrowers that were impacted by the pandemic without classifying the modifications as TDRs if the accommodation was granted before December 31, 2021. In accordance with the regulatory guidance, the Bank granted accommodations on certain loans to borrowers who were negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. At March 31,September 30, 2022 and March 31,September 30, 2021, the Bank had $0 and $34.5$25.5 million, respectively, of outstanding loans that were granted loan accommodations in accordance with Section 4013 of the CARES Act.

No amortization expense relating to goodwill is recorded as GAAP does not allow goodwill to be amortized but requires that it be tested for impairment at least annually, or sooner, if there are indications that impairment may exist.

Projections of amortization are based on existing asset balances and the existing interest rate environment as of March 31, 2022. The Company’s actual experience may be significantly different depending upon changes in mortgage interest rates and other market conditions.

(11) Leases

The Company accounts for its leases in accordance with ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) and as of March 31, 2022 a $0.3 million right-of-use asset and an offsetting lease payment obligation liability were recorded on the consolidated balance sheet in other assets and other liabilities, respectively.

Operating lease right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement based on the present value of the remaining lease payments using a discount rate that represents the Company’s incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date. Because the Company only has operating leases and the right-of-use asset is offset by a lease payment obligation liability, the lease payments are the only amount that is recorded in occupancy expense in the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income.

The Company’s leases relate to office space and bank branches with remaining lease terms between five and thirty-seven months. Certain leases contain extension options which typically range from three to ten years. Because these extension options are not considered reasonably certain of exercise, they are not included in the lease term.

The table below summarizes the Company’s net lease cost for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

(13) Regulatory Capital and Oversight

The Bank is subject to the Basel III regulatory capital requirements. The Basel III requirements, among other things, (i) apply a set of capital requirements to the Bank, including requirements relating to common equity as a component of core capital, (ii) implement a “capital conservation buffer” against risk and a higher minimum Tier 1 capital requirement, and (iii) set forth rules for calculating risk-weighted assets for purposes of such requirements. The rules also made corresponding revisions to the prompt corrective action framework and include capital ratios and buffer requirements. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

The FRB amended its Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement (Policy Statement), to exempt small bank holding companies with assets less than $3 billion from the above capital requirements. The Policy Statement was also expanded to include savings and loan holding companies that meet the Policy Statement’s qualitative requirements for exemption. The Company currently meets the qualitative exemption requirements, and therefore, is exempt from the above capital requirements.

Quantitative measures established by regulations to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table and defined in the regulation) of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, Tier 1 capital to adjusted total assets, Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and total capital to risk-weighted assets.

The Bank’s average total assets for the first quarter of 2022 were $1.0 billion, its adjusted total assets were $1.0 billion, and its risk-weighted assets were $778.7

Certain leases contain extension options which typically range from three to ten years. Because these extension options are not considered reasonably certain of exercise, they are not included in the lease term. As of September 30, 2022, operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities were $0.6 million and recorded on the consolidated balance sheet in other assets and other liabilities, respectively.

Quantitative measures established by regulations to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table and defined in the regulation) of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, Tier 1 capital to adjusted total assets, Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and total capital to risk-weighted assets.

The Bank’s average total assets for the third quarter of 2022 were $1.1 billion, its adjusted total assets were $1.1 billion, and its risk-weighted assets were $852.5 million. The following table presents the Bank’s capital amounts and ratios at September 30, 2022 for actual capital, required capital and excess capital, including ratios in order to qualify as being well capitalized under the prompt corrective actions regulations.

(1) Based upon the Bank’s adjusted total assets for the purpose of the Tier 1 leverage capital ratio and risk-weighted assets for the purpose of the risk-based capital ratios.

The Bank must maintain a capital conservation buffer of 2.50% composed of common equity Tier 1 capital above its minimum risk-based capital requirements in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. Management believes that, as of September 30, 2022, the Bank’s capital ratios were in excess of those quantitative capital ratio standards set forth under the current prompt corrective action regulations, including the capital conservation buffer described above. However, there can be no assurance that the Bank will continue to maintain such status in the future. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) has extensive discretion in its supervisory and enforcement activities and can adjust the requirement to be well-capitalized in the future.

(14) Stockholders Equity

The Company repurchased 30,000 shares and 90,000 shares of its common stock in the open market for a gross purchase price of $0.7 million and $2.1 million under its share repurchase program during the third quarter and firstnine months of 2022, respectively. At September 30, 2022, the Company was authorized to repurchase up to $2.0 million more of its common stock under the existing share repurchase program. The Company also declared three quarterly dividends of 6 cents per share that were paid on March 9, 2022, June 7, 2022, and September 7, 2022. The total amount of dividends paid to stockholders in the firstnine months of 2022 was $0.8 million.

The OCC has extensive discretion in its supervisory and enforcement activities and can adjust the requirement to be well-capitalized in the future.

(14) Stockholders Equity

The Company repurchased 30,000 shares of its common stock in the open market for a gross purchase price of $0.7 million under its share repurchase program during the first quarter of 2022. At March 31, 2022, the Company was authorized to repurchase up to $3.4 million more of its common stock under the existing share repurchase program. The Company also declared a quarterly dividend of 6 cents per share that was paid to stockholders as of the record date on March 9, 2022.

 

 

(15) Commitments and Contingencies

The Bank issues standby letters of credit which guarantee the performance of customers to third parties. The standby letters of credit issued and available at March 31,September 30, 2022 were approximately $10.5$13.8 million, expire over the next twenty-threetwenty-six months, and are collateralized primarily with commercial real estate mortgages. Since the conditions under which the Bank is required to fund the standby letters of credit may not materialize, the cash requirements are expected to be less than the total outstanding commitments.

 

From time to time, the Company is party to legal proceedings arising out of its lending and deposit operations. The Company is, and expects to become, engaged in foreclosure proceedings, collection actions, and other litigation as part of its normal banking activities. The Company examines each legal matter, and, in those situations where it determines that a particular legal matter presents loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable, establishes an appropriate accrual. In many situations, the Company is not able to estimate reasonably possible losses due to the preliminary nature of the legal matter, as well as a variety of other factors and uncertainties. Based on the Company’s current understanding of all of the outstanding legal matters, management does not believe that judgments or settlements arising from any pending or threatened litigation, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

(16) Business Segments

The Bank has been identified as a reportable operating segment in accordance with the provisions of ASC 280. HMN, the holding company, did not meet the quantitative thresholds for a reportable segment and therefore is included in the “Other” category.

 

The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on the segment’s net income, return on average assets and return on average equity. Each corporation is managed separately with its own officers and board of directors.

General

HMN is the stock savings bank holding company for the Bank, which operates community banking and loan production offices in Minnesota, Iowa and Wisconsin. The earnings of the Company are primarily dependent on the Bank's net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on loans and investments, and the interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities such as deposits and other borrowings. The difference between the average rate of interest earned on assets and the average rate paid on liabilities is the interest rate spread. Net interest income is produced when interest-earning assets equal or exceed interest-bearing liabilities and there is a positive interest rate spread. Net interest income and net interest rate spread are affected by changes in interest rates, the volume and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and the level of non-performing assets. The Company's net earnings are also affected by the generation of non-interest income, which consists primarily of gains from the sale of loans, fees for servicing loans, commissions on the sale of uninsured investment products, and service charges on deposit accounts. The Bank incurs expenses in addition to interest expense in the form of compensation and benefits, occupancy and equipment expenses, provisions for loan losses, data processing costs, professional services, deposit insurance, amortization expense on mortgage servicing assets, advertising expenses, and income taxes. The earnings of financial institutions, such as the Bank, are also significantly affected by prevailing economic and competitive conditions, particularly changes in interest rates, government monetary and fiscal policies, and regulations of various regulatory authorities. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for and supply of business credit, single family and commercial properties, competition among lenders, the level of interest rates and the availability of funds. Deposit flows and costs of deposits are influenced by prevailing market rates of interest on competing investments, account maturities and the levels of personal income and savings.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

While our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements, we believe the following discussion addresses our most critical accounting estimates, which are those estimates made in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) that involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. The Company has identified the following critical accounting estimates that management believes involve the most difficult, subjective, and/or complex judgments that are inherently uncertain. Therefore, actual financial results could differ significantly depending upon the estimates, assumptions and other factors used.

 

Allowance for Loan Losses and Related Provision

The allowance for loan losses is based on periodic analysis of the loan portfolio and is maintained at an amount considered to be appropriate by management to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet dates. In this analysis, management considers factors including, but not limited to, specific occurrences of loan impairment, actual and anticipated changes in the size of the portfolios, national, regional and local economic conditions such as unemployment data, loan delinquencies, demand for single family homes, demand for commercial real estate and building lots, loan portfolio composition, historical loss experience and observations made by the Company's ongoing internal audit and regulatory exam processes. Loans are charged off to the extent they are deemed to be uncollectible. The Company has established separate processes to determine the appropriateness of the loan loss allowance for its homogeneous and non-homogeneous loan portfolios. The determination of the allowance on the homogeneous single family and consumer loan portfolios is calculated on a pooled basis with individual determination of the allowance for all non-performing loans. The determination of the allowance for the non-homogeneous commercial, commercial real estate and multi-family loan portfolios involves assigning standardized risk ratings and loss factors that are periodically reviewed. The loss factors are estimated based on the Company's own loss experience and other qualitative factors and are assigned to all loans without identified credit weaknesses. For each non-performing loan, the Company also performs an individual analysis of impairment that is based on the expected cash flows or the value of the assets collateralizing the loans and establishes any necessary reserves or charges off all loans, or portions thereof, that are deemed uncollectible.

 

26

The appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses is dependent upon management’s estimates of variables affecting valuation, appraisals of collateral, evaluations of performance and status and the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans. Such estimates, appraisals, evaluations and cash flows may be subject to adjustments due to changing economic prospects of borrowers or properties. The fair market value of collateral dependent loans is typically based on the appraised value of the property less estimated selling costs. The estimates are reviewed periodically and any adjustments are recorded in the provision for loan losses in the periods in which the adjustments become known. Because of the size of some loans, changes in estimates can have a significant impact on the loan loss provision. The allowance is allocated to individual loan categories based upon the relative risk characteristics of the loan portfolios, the actual loss experience and other qualitative factors. The Company increases its allowance for loan losses by charging the provision for loan losses against income and by receiving recoveries of previously charged off loans. The Company decreases its allowance by crediting the provision for loan losses and recording loan charge-offs. The current yearyear-to-date activity resulted in a decreasean increase in the allowance and a creditcharge against income to the loan loss provision. The methodology for establishing the allowance for loan losses takes into consideration probable losses that have been identified in connection with specific loans as well as losses in the loan portfolio that have not been specifically identified. Although management believes that based on current conditions the allowance for loan losses is maintained at an appropriate amount to provide for probable loan losses inherent in the portfolio as of the balance sheet dates, future conditions may differ substantially from those anticipated in determining the allowance for loan losses and adjustments may be required in the future. In addition, the Company will be required to adopt Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments in the first quarter of 2023. See “Note 1 - New Accounting Pronouncements in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on the potentialestimated impact of adopting ASU 2016-13.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. These calculations are based on many complex factors including estimates of the timing of reversals of temporary differences, the interpretation of federal and state income tax laws, and a determination of the differences between the tax and the financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates and interpretations used in determining the current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities.

 

The Company maintains significant net deferred tax assets for deductible temporary differences, the largest of which relate to unrealized losses on the investment portfolio and the allowance for loan losses. ForInvestment losses on available for sale securities are only recognized for tax purposes onlywhen a loss is realized upon the sale of the investments while unrealized losses, net charge-offsof tax, are deductiblerecorded as an adjustment to equity for book purposes. Loan losses are recognized for tax purposes when the loans are charged off while the entire provision for loan losses is used to determine book income. A deferred tax asset is created because of the timing difference of when the expense is recognized for book and tax purposes. Under GAAP, a valuation allowance is required to be recognized if it is “more likely than not” that the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The determination of the realizability of the deferred tax assets is highly subjective and dependent upon management’s judgment and evaluation of both positive and negative evidence, including the forecasts of future income, tax planning strategies, and assessments of the current and future economic and business conditions. The positive evidence considered includes the Company’s cumulative net income in the prior three-year period, the ability to implement tax planning strategies to accelerate taxable income recognition, and the probability that taxable income will be generated in future periods. The Company could not currently identify any negative evidence. It is possible that future conditions may differ substantially from those anticipated in determining that no valuation allowance was required on deferred tax assets and adjustments may be required in the future.

 

Determining the ultimate settlement of any tax position requires significant estimates and judgments in arriving at the amount of tax benefits to be recognized in the financial statements. It is possible that the tax benefits realized upon the ultimate resolution of a tax position may result in tax benefits that are significantly different from those estimated.

The decrease in the average yield is primarily related to the $0.6$0.8 million decrease between the periods in the yield enhancements recognized on Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans that were repaid between the periods and a decrease in the yields earned on loans and investments due to the continued low interest rate environment. This trend is expected to continue throughout 2022 as all of the PPP loans have been repaid as of March 31, 2022.loans.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses was $0.3$0.6 million for the firstthird quarter of 2022, an increase of $0.9$1.5 million compared to ($0.6)0.9) million for the third quarter of 2021. The provision for loan losses was $0.9 million for the first quarternine months of 2022, an increase of $3.3 million compared to ($2.4) million for the first nine months of 2021. The provision for loan losses increased between the periods primarily because of the loan portfolio growth and also because of an increase in the loan portfolio duringqualitative reserves due to the first quarter of 2022.perceived negative impact on borrowers from inflation and rising interest rates. The credit provision recorded in 2021 was primarily the result of improvements in the underlying operations supporting many of the loans that were initially negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.

 

The allowance for loan losses is made up of general reserves on the entire loan portfolio and specific reserves on impaired loans. The general reserve amount includes quantitative reserves based on the size and risk characteristics of the portfolio and our past loan loss history and qualitative reserves for other items determined to have a potential impact on future loan losses. The general reserves increased during the third quarter as a resultand first nine months of 2022 primarily because of the loan portfolio growth and because of an increase in the required quantitative reserves due to an increase in the loan portfolio.qualitative reserves. The qualitative allowancereserves for loan losses related to the disruption in business activity as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic was reduced during the quarterperiods because of a perceived reduction in this risk due to improving conditions. The reduction in pandemic related qualitative reserves was partiallyentirely offset by an increase in the qualitative reserves for other economic factors. The other qualitative reserves were increased due to a perceived deterioration of economic conditionconditions during the quarter,periods, including an increase in the elevated inflation rate, of inflation, and enacted and expected increases in the federal funds rate.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income was $2.4$2.1 million for the firstthird quarter of 2022, a decrease of $0.9$1.0 million, or 27.0%32.7%, from $3.3$3.1 million for the firstthird quarter of 2021. Gain on sales of loans decreased $0.9$1.1 million between the periods primarily because of a decrease in single family loan originations and sales. Loan servicing fees decreased slightly between the periods due to a decrease in the aggregate balances of Small Business Administration loans that were being serviced for others. These decreases were partially offset by a slight increase in fees and service charges between the periods due primarily to an increase in retail overdraft fees. Other non-interest income increased slightly due primarily to an increase in the fees earned on the sale of uninsured investment productsproducts. Loan servicing fees increased slightly between the periods due to an increase in the aggregate balances of single family mortgage loans that were being serviced for others. Fees and service charges increased slightly between the periods due primarily to an increase in overdraft fees.

Non-interest income was $6.9 million for the first nine months of 2022, a decrease of $4.1 million, or 37.1%, from $11.0 million for the same period of 2021. Gain on sales of loans decreased $2.8 million between the periods primarily because of a decrease in single family loan originations and sales. Other non-interest income decreased $1.4 million due primarily because of a decrease in the gains that were realized on the sale of real estate owned between the periods. Fees and service charges increased $0.1 million between the periods due primarily to an increase in overdraft fees. Loan servicing fees increased slightly between the periods due to an increase in the aggregate balances of single family mortgage loans that were being serviced for others.

 

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense was $7.3$7.2 million for the firstthird quarter of 2022, an increase of $0.8$0.3 million, or 11.9%3.9%, from $6.5$6.9 million for the firstthird quarter of 2021. Compensation and benefits expense increased $0.5$0.4 million primarily because of a decrease in the direct loan origination compensation costs that were deferred as a result of the decreasedreduced mortgage loan production between the periods. Professional services expenseData processing expenses increased $0.3$0.1 million between the periods primarily because of the change to an increase in legal expenses relating to a bankruptcy litigation claim that was settled duringoutsourced data processing relationship at the end of the first quarter of 2022. Other non-interest expense increased slightly between the periods due primarily to a decrease in the printing and supply costs that were deferred as a resultbecause of the decreased mortgage loan production and an increase in deposit insurance costs due to asset growth. Data processing expenses increased slightly between the periods due to an increase in debit card and mobile banking costs.marketing expenses. These increases in non-interest expense were partially offset by a $0.1$0.2 million decrease in occupancy and equipment expense due primarily to a decrease in rent expense between the periods as a result of purchasing the combined corporate and branch location in Rochester, Minnesota in the fourth quarter of 2021. Professional services expense decreased $0.1 million between the periods primarily because of a decrease in legal expenses relating to a bankruptcy litigation claim that was settled during the first quarter of 2022.

Non-interest expense was $21.4 million for the first nine months of 2022, an increase of $1.0 million, or 5.1%, from $20.4 million for the same period of 2021. Compensation and benefits expense increased $0.9 million primarily because of a decrease in the direct loan origination compensation costs that were deferred as a result of the decreased mortgage loan production between the periods. Data processing expenses increased $0.3 million between the periods primarily because of the change to an outsourced data processing relationship at the end of the first quarter of 2022. Professional services expense increased $0.2 million between the periods primarily because of an increase in legal expenses relating to a bankruptcy litigation claim that was settled during the first quarter of 2022. These increases in non-interest expense were partially offset by a $0.4 million decrease in occupancy and equipment expense due primarily to a decrease in rent expense between the periods as a result of purchasing the combined corporate and branch location in Rochester, Minnesota in the fourth quarter of 2021. Other non-interest expense decreased slightly between the periods primarily because of a decrease in mortgage servicing expense due to the reduction in prepayments on mortgage loan being serviced for others.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $0.6$0.8 million for the firstthird quarter of 2022, a decrease of $0.8$0.7 million from $1.4$1.5 million for the third quarter of 2021. Income tax expense was $2.3 million for the first quarternine months of 2022, a decrease of $2.3 million from $4.6 million for the same period of 2021. The decrease in income tax expense between the periods is primarily the result of a decrease in pre-tax income.

Total non-performingnonperforming assets were $4.8$1.8 million at March 31,September 30, 2022, a decrease of $0.1$2.5 million, or 1.8%57.8%, from $4.3 million at June 30, 2022 and a decrease of $3.1 million, or 63.1%, from $4.9 million at December 31, 2021. Non-performingNonperforming loans decreased $0.1$2.5 million and foreclosed$2.8 million for the third quarter and repossessed assets remainedfirst nine months of 2022, respectively. The decrease in nonperforming loans is primarily related to a decrease in nonperforming commercial real estate loans, primarily because of a $3.1 million loan in the samehospitality industry that was reclassified as performing during the firstthird quarter of 2022. The decrease in nonperforming commercial real estate loans for the periods was partially offset by increases in nonperforming mortgage loans of $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, respectively. Nonperforming commercial loans also increased $0.6 million for both the third quarter and first nine months of 2022.

Dividends

The Company declared athree quarterly dividenddividends of 6 cents per share in the first nine months of common stock2022 that waswere paid to stockholders on March 9, 2022, June 7, 2022, and September 7, 2022. The declaration and amount of any future cash dividends remains subject to the sole discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon many factors, including the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, regulatory and contractual restrictions, business strategy and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

For the quarternine months ended March 31,September 30, 2022, the net cash provided by operating activities was $11.1$26.5 million. The Company collected $12.1$40.0 million in principal repayments and maturities on securities and purchased securities and FHLB stock for $25.2$36.8 million. The Company redeemed FHLB stock totaling $1.6 million and received proceeds from the sale of real estate of $0.4 million. The Company had a net decrease in deposit balances of $30.3$3.1 million, and an increase of customer escrows of $0.8received and repaid $31.0 million in proceeds from borrowings during the quarter. Itperiod. The Company also purchased $0.7$2.1 million of treasury stock, obtained $0.1 million in treasury stock for the taxes payable on stock awards, paid dividends to stockholders of $0.3$0.8 million, received additional customer escrows of $1.2 million, and purchased $0.2$0.3 million of premises and equipment. Loans receivable also increased $32.3$102.0 million during the quarter.period.

 

The Company has certificates of deposit with outstanding balances of $54.8$48.9 million that come due over the next 12 months. Based upon past experience, management anticipates that the majority of the deposits will renew for another term. The Company believes that cash outflows from deposits that do not renew will be replaced with a combination of other customers’ deposits or FHLB advances. FRB borrowings could also be used to fund unanticipated outflows of certificates of deposit.

 

28

The Company had elevenseven deposit customers each with aggregate deposits greater than $5.0 million as of March 31,September 30, 2022. The $101.2$138.0 million in funds held by these customers may be withdrawn at any time, but management anticipates that the majority of these deposits will not be withdrawn from the Bank over the next twelve months. If these deposits were withdrawn, it is anticipated that they would be replaced with deposits from other customers or FHLB advances. FRB borrowings could also be used to replace unanticipated outflows of large checking and money market deposits.

 

The Company had the ability to borrow $182.6$189.4 million from the FHLB at March 31,September 30, 2022 based on the collateral value of the loans pledged. The credit policy of the FHLB relating to the collateral value of the loans collateralizing the available line of credit with the FHLB may change such that the current collateral pledged to secure future advances is no longer acceptable or the formulas for determining the excess pledged collateral may change. The FHLB could also reduce the amount of funds it will lend to the Bank. It is not anticipated that the Bank will need to find alternative funding sources in the next twelve months to replace the available borrowings from the FHLB. However, if needed, the Bank could borrow an additional $72.7$72.1 million from the FRB at March 31, 2022 based on the collateral value of the loans pledged.pledged at September 30, 2022.

 

The Company’s primary source of cash is dividends from the Bank. At March 31,September 30, 2022, the Company had $11.4$15.5 million in cash. The primary use of cash by the Company is the payment of operating expenses, the repurchase of Company stock, and the payment of dividends to stockholders.

33

 

The Company also serves as a source of capital, liquidity, and financial support to the Bank. Depending upon the operating performance of the Bank and the Company’s other liquidity and capital needs, including Company level expenses, the Company may find it prudent, subject to prevailing capital market conditions and other factors, to raise additional capital through issuance of its common stock or other equity securities. Additional capital would also potentially permit the Company to implement a strategy of growing Bank assets. Depending on the circumstances, if it were to raise capital, the Company may deploy it to the Bank for general banking purposes or may retain some or all of it for use by the Company.

 

If the Company were to raise capital through the issuance of additional shares of common stock or other equity securities, it would dilute the ownership interests of existing stockholders and could result in a change in control of the Company and the Bank. New investors may also have rights, preferences and privileges senior to the Company’s current stockholders which may adversely impact the Company’s current stockholders. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital through the issuance of equity securities, if deemed prudent, will depend on, among other factors, conditions in the capital markets at that time, which are outside of its control. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to raise additional capital, if deemed prudent, on favorable economic terms or other terms acceptable to it.

 

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates. The Company's market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk inherent in its investing, lending and deposit taking activities. Management actively monitors and manages its interest rate risk exposure.

 

The Company's profitability is affected by fluctuations in interest rates. A sudden and substantial change in interest rates may adversely impact the Company's earnings to the extent that the interest rates borne by assets and liabilities do not change at the same speed, to the same extent, or on the same basis. The Company monitors the projected changes in net interest income that occur if interest rates were to suddenly change up or down. The Rate Shock Table located in the following Asset/Liability Management section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis discloses the Company's projected changes in net interest income based upon immediate interest rate changes called rate shocks. The Company utilizes a model that uses the discounted cash flows from its interest-earning assets and its interest-bearing liabilities to calculate the current market value of those assets and liabilities. The model also calculates the changes in market value of the interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities under different interest rate changes.

 

29

The following table discloses the projected changes in the market value of the Company’s interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities based upon incremental 100 basis-point changes in interest rates from interest rates in effect on March 31,September 30, 2022.

The preceding table was prepared utilizing a model using the following assumptions (the Model Assumptions) regarding prepayment and decay ratios that were determined by management based upon their review of historical prepayment speeds and future prepayment projections. Fixed rate loans were assumed to prepay at annual rates of between 2% to 44%1% and 35%, depending on the note rate and the period to maturity. Adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs) were assumed to prepay at annual rates of between 6%7% and 44%32%, depending on the note rate and the period to maturity. Mortgage-backed securities were projected to have prepayments based upon the underlying collateral securing the instrument. Certificate accounts were assumed not to be withdrawn until maturity. PassbookSavings accounts and money market accounts were assumed to decay at an annual rate of 7%2% and 17%26%, respectively. Retail checking accounts, commercial checking accounts and commercial money market accounts were assumed to decay at annual rates of 6%2%, 22%32% and 13%4%, respectively. Callable investments were projected to be called at the first call date where the projected interest rate on similar remaining term instruments was less than the interest rate on the callable investment.

34

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the above table. The interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag behind changes in market interest rates. The model assumes that the difference between the current interest rate being earned or paid compared to a treasury instrument or other interest index with a similar term to maturity (the Interest Spread) will remain constant over the interest changes disclosed in the table. Changes in Interest Spread could impact projected market value changes. Certain assets, such as ARMs, have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the assets. The market value of the interest-bearing assets that are approaching their lifetime interest rate caps could be different from the values disclosed in the table. Certain liabilities, such as certificates of deposit, have fixed rates that restrict interest rate changes until maturity. In the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels may deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the foregoing table. The ability of many borrowers to service their debt may also decrease in the event of a substantial sustained increase in interest rates.

 

Asset/Liability Management

The Company’s management reviews the impact that changing interest rates will have on the Company’s net interest income projected for the next twelve months to determine if its current level of interest rate risk is acceptable. The following table projects the estimated impact on net interest income during the twelve month period ended March 31,September 30, 2023 of immediate interest rate changes called rate shocks:

The preceding table was prepared utilizing the Model Assumptions. Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the foregoing table. In the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the foregoing table. The ability of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of a substantial increase in interest rates and could impact net interest income. The decrease in interest income in a declining rate environment is primarily because there are more loans and investments that would reprice to lower interest rates than there are deposits that would be able to be repriced lower to the same extent in the next twelve months.

 

30

In an attempt to manage its exposure to changes in interest rates, management closely monitors interest rate risk. The Bank has an Asset/Liability Committee that meets frequently to discuss changes in the interest rate risk position and projected profitability. This Committee makes adjustments to the asset-liabilityasset/liability position of the Bank that are reviewed by the Board of Directors of the Bank. This Committee also reviews the Bank's portfolio, formulates investment strategies and oversees the timing and implementation of transactions as intended to assure attainment of the Bank's objectives in an effective manner. In addition, each quarter the Board reviews the Bank's asset/liability position, including simulations of the effect on the Bank's capital of various interest rate scenarios.

 

In managing its asset/liability composition, the Bank may, at times, depending on the relationship between long-term and short-term interest rates, market conditions and consumer preference, place more emphasis on managing net interest margin than on better matching the interest rate sensitivity of its assets and liabilities in an effort to enhance net interest income. Management believes that the increased net interest income resulting from a mismatch in the maturity of its asset and liability portfolios can, in certain situations, provide high enough returns to justify the increased exposure to sudden and unexpected changes in interest rates.

 

35

To the extent consistent with its interest rate spread objectives, the Bank attempts to manage its interest rate risk and has taken a number of steps to structure its balance sheet to better match the maturities of its assets and liabilities. The Bank sells almost all of its originated 30-year fixed rate single family residential loans that are saleable to third parties and generally places only adjustable rate or shorter-term fixed rate loans that meet certain risk characteristics into its loan portfolio. In addition, a significant portion of the Bank’s commercial loans that are placed into the portfolio are adjustable rate loans or fixed rate loans that reprice in less than five years.years or less.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements other than commitments to originate and sell loans in the ordinary course of business.

Not applicable.

 

Item 4: Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)). Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were 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 SEC rules and forms.

 

Changes in internal controls. There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the Company’s most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
