Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)
1.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The consolidated financial statements presented in this report include the accounts of HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc., a Maryland corporation ("HomeTrust"), and its wholly-owned subsidiary, HomeTrust Bank (the "Bank"). As used throughout this report, the term the "Company" refers to HomeTrust and the Bank, its consolidated subsidiary, unless the context otherwise requires.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included. It is recommended that these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 20172018 ("20172018 Form 10-K") filed with the SEC on September 12, 2017.13, 2018. The results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 20172018 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending June 30, 2018.2019.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements. Various elements of the Company's accounting policies, by their nature, are inherently subject to estimation techniques, valuation assumptions, and other subjective assessments. In particular, management has identified several accounting policies that, due to the judgments, estimates and assumptions inherent in those policies, are critical to an understanding of the Company's financial statements. These policies relate to (i) the determination of the provision and the allowance for loan losses, (ii) business combinations and acquired loans, (iii) the valuation of REO, (iv) the valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, and (v) the valuation of or recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities. These policies and judgments, estimates and assumptions are described in greater detail in subsequent notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Critical Accounting Policies) in our 20172018 Form 10-K. Management believes that the judgments, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statements are appropriate based on the factual circumstances at the time. However, given the sensitivity of the financial statements to these critical accounting policies, the use of other judgments, estimates and assumptions could result in material differences in the Company's results of operations or financial condition. Further, subsequent changes in economic or market conditions could have a material impact on these estimates and the Company's financial condition and operating results in future periods.
Certain amounts reported in prior periods' consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on previously reported cash flows, stockholders' equity or net income.
2.Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, which defers the effective date of Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09 one year. ASU No. 2014-09 created Topic 606 and supersedes Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. The core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In general, the new guidance requires companies to use more judgment and make more estimates than under current guidance, including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, Revenue"Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients," which provides clarifying guidance in certain narrow areas and adds some practical expedients, but does not change the core revenue recognition principle in Topic 606. ASU No. 2015-14 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. For financial reporting purposes, the standard allows for either full retrospective adoption, meaning the standard is applied to all of the periods presented, or modified retrospective adoption, meaning the standard is applied only to the most current period presented in the financial statements with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized at the date of initial application. A significant amount of the Company’s revenues are derived from net interest income on financial assets and liabilities, which are excluded from the scope of the amended guidance. With respect to noninterest income, the Company is in its preliminary stages of identifying and evaluating the revenue streams and underlying revenue contracts within the scope of the guidance. The Company is expectingadopted this ASU on July 1, 2018. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. However, additional disclosures required by this ASU have been included in “Note 12 - Revenue” to begin developing processes and procedures during fiscal 2018 to ensure it is fully compliant with these amendments at the adoption date. To date, the Company has not yet identified any significant changes in the timing of revenue recognition when considering the amended accounting guidance; however, the Company’s implementation efforts are ongoing and such assessments may change prior to the July 1, 2018 implementation date.consolidated financial statements.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, "Financial Instruments (Subtopic 825-10) Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities." The ASU amends the guidance in GAAP on the classification and measurement of financial instruments. The ASU includes the following changes: i) equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (ii) requires the use of exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; (iii) require separate presentation of financial assets and

financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (i.e. securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements; (iv) allows an equity investment that does not have readily determinable fair values, to be measured at cost minus impairment (if any), plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer; (v) eliminates the requirement to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet, and requires a reporting

organization to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk (also referred to as “own credit”) when the organization has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments; (vi) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (i.e. securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet or in the accompanying notes to the financial statements; and (vii) clarifies that a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities should be evaluated in combination with the organization’s other deferred tax assets. Exit price is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The amendments inCompany adopted this ASU are effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017.on July 1, 2018. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-01 isdid not expected to have a material impacteffect on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. Management isThe disclosures to the Company’s consolidated financial statements have been updated appropriately using the exit price notion in the planning stages“Note 11 - Fair Value of developing processes and procedures to comply with the disclosures requirements of this ASU, which could impact the disclosures the Company makes related to fair value of its financial instruments.Financial Instruments.”
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (ASC(Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 842)." The guidance in this ASU requires most leases to be recognized on the balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. It will be critical to identify leases embedded in a contract to avoid misstating the lessee’s balance sheet. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Classification will be based on criteria that are largely similar to those applied in current lease accounting, but without explicit bright lines. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, "Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases" and ASU 2018-11 "Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements." ASU 2018-10 made 16 narrow-scope amendments to ASC 842. The amendments in this ASU 2018-11 are intended to provide entities with relief from the costs of implementing certain aspects of the the new lease accounting standard. Specifically, an entity can elect not to recast the comparative periods presented when transitioning to ASC 842 and provides a lessor with the option to not separate lease and nonlease components when certain conditions are met. This ASU also provides a new transition method in addition to the existing transition method contained in ASU No. 2016-02 to allow entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. These amendments have the same effective date as ASU 2016-02. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements and the timing of adoption. The Company will compile an inventory of all leased assets to determine the impact of ASU 2016-02 on its financial condition and results of operations. The effect of the adoption of these ASUs will depend on leases at time of adoption. Once adopted, we expect to report higher assets and liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets as a result of including right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to certain banking offices and certain equipment under noncancelable operating lease agreements, which currently are not reflected in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We do not expect the guidance to have a material impact on the Consolidated Statements of Income or the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders' Equity.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, "Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting." The ASU changes the accounting for certain aspects of share-based payments to employees. The guidance requires the recognition of the income tax effects of awards in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled, thus eliminating additional paid in capital pools. The guidance also allows for the employer to repurchase more of an employee’s shares for tax withholding purposes without triggering liability accounting. In addition, the guidance allows for a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur rather than on an estimated basis. We have elected to account for forfeitures of stock-based awards as they occur. The Company has adopted the amendments in this ASU and appropriate disclosures have been included in this Note. At the adoption of this ASU, we had a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings of $680,000. In accordance with the transition guidance outlined in this ASU, the adoption had no effect on net income or shareholder's equity in any previously issued periods. Going forward, we expect this ASU to create some volatility in our reported income tax expense related to the excess tax benefits for employee stock-based transactions, however, the actual amounts recognized will be dependent on the amount of employee stock-based transactions and the stock price at the time of exercise or vesting.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." The ASU significantly changes the impairment model for most financial assets that are measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments from an incurred loss model to an expected loss model. The amendments in thisThis ASU areis effective for interim and annual periods, and interim periods within those annualreporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for all entities beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating our current expected loss methodology of our loan and investment portfolios to identify the necessary modifications in accordance with this standard and expects a change in the processes and procedures to calculate the allowance for loan losses, including changes in assumptions and estimates to consider expected credit losses over the life of the loan versus the current accounting practice that utilizes the incurred loss model. A valuation adjustment to our allowance for loan losses or investment portfolio that is identified in this process will be reflected as a one-time adjustment in equity rather than earnings. The Company is in the process of identifying required changescompiling historical data that will be used to calculate expected credit losses on its loan portfolio to ensure it is fully compliant with the loan loss estimation modelsASU at the adoption date and processes andis evaluating the potential impact adoption of this new guidance.ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements. Once adopted, we expect ourthe Company expects its allowance for loan losses to increase, however, until ourits evaluation is complete the magnitude of the increase will be unknown.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments." The ASU amends the guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows and is intended to reduce the diversity in practice. The amendments inCompany adopted this ASU are effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted for all entities beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years.on July 1, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of the ASU on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In December 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-19, "Technical Corrections and Improvements" and ASU 2016-20, "Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606: Revenue from Contracts with Customers." On November 10, 2010 FASB added a standing project that will facilitate the FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("Codification”) updates for technical corrections, clarifications, and improvements. These amendments are referred to as Technical Corrections and Improvements. Maintenance updates include non-substantive corrections to the Codification, such as editorial corrections, various link-related changes, and changes to source fragment information. These updates contain amendments that will affect a wide variety of Topics in the Codification. The amendments in these ASUs will apply to all reporting entities within the scope of the affected accounting guidance and generally fall into one of four categories: amendments related to differences between original guidance and the Codification, guidance clarification and reference corrections, simplification, and minor improvements. In summary, the amendments represent changes to clarify the Codification, correct unintended application of guidance, or make minor improvements to the Codification that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice. Transition guidance varies based on the amendments
HOMETRUST BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

in the ASUs. The amendments that require transition guidance are effective for fiscal years and interim reporting periods after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted including adoption in an interim period. All other amendments are effective upon the issuance of these ASUs. Neither ASU 2016-19 nor ASU 2016-20 had a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In January 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-04, "Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment." The ASU removes the requirement to compare the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying value as required in Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. Under the ASU, registrants would perform their goodwill impairment test and recognize an impairment charge for any amount the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit's fair value, but limited by the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for all entities after January 1, 2017. The Company did early adopt this ASU and adoption did not have a material effect on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In March 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-08, "Receivables-Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities." The ASU requires entities to amortize the premium on certain purchased callable debt securities to the earliest call date, which more closely aligns the amortization period of premiums and discounts to expectations incorporated in the market prices. Entities will no longer recognize a loss in earnings upon the debtor's exercise of a call on a purchased debt security held at a premium. The ASU does not require any accounting change for debt securities held at a discount, therefore the discount will continue to be amortized as an adjustment of yield over the contractual life of the investment. The amendments in thisThis ASU areis effective for interim and annual periods, and interim periods within those annualreporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The adoption of ASU No. 2017-08 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, "Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting." This ASU provides clarity on the guidance related to stock compensation when there have been changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award to which an entity would be required to apply modification accounting under ASC 718. The ASU provides the three following criteria must be met in order to not account for the effect of the modification of terms or conditions: the fair value, the vesting conditions and the classification as an equity or liability instrument of the modified award is the same as the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The amendments inCompany adopted this ASU are effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted.on July 1, 2018. The adoption of ASU No. 2017-09 isdid not expected to have a material impacteffect on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities." This ASU improves the transparency and understandability of disclosures in the financial statements regarding the entities risk management activities and reduces the complexity of hedge accounting. The amendments in this ASU permit hedge accounting for hedging relationships involving nonfinancial risk and interest rate risk by removing certain limitations in cash flow and fair value hedging relationships. In addition, the ASU requires an entity to present the earnings effect of the hedging instrument in the same income statement line item in which the earnings effect of the hedged item is reported. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2017-12 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In February 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-02, "Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income." The ASU allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the revaluation of the Company’s net deferred tax assets (“DTA”) to the new corporate federal income tax rate of 21% as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (‘Tax Act”). The Company elected to early adopt this ASU during the year ended June 30, 2018. The affected amount for the Company was immaterial and did not have an effect on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
3.Business Combinations
All business combinationsIn March 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-05, "Income Taxes (Topic 740)." This ASU was issued to provide guidance on the income tax accounting implications of the Tax Act and allows for entities to report provisional amounts for specific income tax effects of the Act for which the accounting under Topic 740 was not yet complete, but a reasonable estimate could be determined. A measurement period of one-year is allowed to complete the accounting effects under Topic 740 and revise any previous estimates reported. Any provisional amounts or subsequent adjustments included in an entity’s financial statements during the measurement period should be included in income from continuing operations as an adjustment to tax expense in the reporting period the amounts are determined. The Company adopted this ASU with the provisional adjustments as reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements on Form 10-Q as of December 31, 2017. As of June 30, 2018, the Company did not incur any adjustments to the provisional recognition.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement." The amendments in this ASU removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements in ASC 820. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2018-13 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, "Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses." This update clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of Subtopic 326-20. Instead, impairment of receivables arising from operating leases should be accounted for usingin accordance with Topic 842, Leases. The effective date and transition requirements for this ASU are the acquisition methodsame as ASU 2016-13. The adoption of ASU No. 2018-19 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In December 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-20, "Leases (Topic 842): Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors." The amendments in this update permit lessors, as an accounting policy election, to not evaluate whether certain sales taxes and accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumedother similar taxes are lessor costs or lessee costs. Instead, those lessors will account for those costs as if they are lessee costs. A lessor making this election will exclude from the consideration in the contract and from variable payments not included in the consideration exchanged are recorded at acquisition date fair values. Fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement for up to one year afterin the closing datecontract all collections from lessees of taxes within the scope of the acquisition as additional information regardingelection and will provide certain disclosures. For certain lessor costs, the closing date fair values becomes available.
United Financiallessor must exclude from variable payments, and therefore revenue, lessor costs paid by lessees directly to third parties from variable payments. In addition, the lessor must account for costs excluded from the consideration of North Carolina, Inc.

On December 31, 2016, the Bank acquired United Financial of North Carolina, Inc. ("United Financial"), a municipal lease company headquartered in Fletcher, North Carolinacontract that specializes in providing financing for fire departments and municipalities to purchase fire trucks and related equipment as well as to construct fire stations and other municipal buildings across the Carolinas and other southeastern states. United Financial underwrites and originates municipal leases and then sells them to HomeTrust and other financial institutions. Since January 1, 2017, United Financial has conducted business under the name United Financial, a division of HomeTrust Bank.

The total considerationare paid by the Banklessor and reimbursed by the lessee as variable payments. A lessor will record those reimbursed costs as revenue. The amendments in this ASU related to recognizing variable payments for contracts with lease and nonlease components require lessors to allocate (rather than recognize as currently required) certain variable payments to the United Financial acquisition approximates $425. Perlease and nonlease components when the merger agreement,changes in facts and circumstances on which the variable payment is based occur. After the allocation, the amount of variable payments allocated to the lease components will be recognized as income in profit or loss in accordance with Topic 842, while the amount of variable payments allocated to nonlease components will be recognized in accordance with other Topics, such as Topic 606. The effective date and transition requirements for this ASU are the same as ASU 2016-02. The adoption of ASU No. 2018-20 is not expected to have a cash payment of $200 was paidmaterial impact on the acquisition date with an additional $225 due in the third quarter of fiscal 2018; all of which was allocated to goodwill.Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

The total number of securities with unrealized losses at December 31, 2017,2018, and June 30, 20172018 were 164201 and 136,218, respectively. Unrealized losses on securities have not been recognized in income because management has the intent and ability to hold the securities for the foreseeable future, and has determined that it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the securities prior to a recovery in value. The decline in fair value was largely due to increases in market interest rates. The Company had no other-than-temporary impairment losses during the six months ended December 31, 20172018 or the year ended June 30, 2017.2018.

PCI loans totaling $4,596$2,071 at December 31, 20172018 and $6,664$3,353 at June 30, 20172018 are excluded from nonaccruing loans due to the accretion of discounts established in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations.

Such modifications to loan terms may include a lower interest rate, a reduction in principal, or a longer term to maturity. Additionally, all TDRs are considered impaired. The Company had no commitments to lend additional funds on these TDR loans at December 31, 2017.2018.
The Company's loans that were performing under the payment terms of TDRs that were excluded from nonaccruing loans above at the dates indicated follow:

In the determination of the allowance for loan losses, management considers TDRs for all loan classes, and the subsequent nonperformance in accordance with their modified terms, by measuring impairment based on either the value of the loan's expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate or on the collateral value, net of the estimated costs of disposal, if the loan is collateral dependent.

The decrease in the federal corporate income tax rate was the result of enactment of the Tax Act, which lowered the Company's statutory federal corporate income tax rate to 21% effective July 1, 2018 from a blended federal corporate income tax rate of 27.5% in the previous fiscal year. Our June 30 fiscal year end required the use of a blended rate as prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code. The blended federal rate of 27.5% was retroactively effective July 1, 2017 and was used for the entire fiscal year ending June 30, 2018. As a result of this blended rate, income tax expense for the quarter ended December 31, 2017 included approximately $418,000 in tax benefit from adjusting the federal income tax rate to 27.5% from 34% for the first quarter of the fiscal year. In addition, for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, following a revaluation of net deferred tax assets due to the Tax Act, the Company recorded additional income tax expense of $17.7 million.
The sources and tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets (liabilities) at December 31, 20172018 and June 30, 20172018 are presented below:

We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. 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. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. We exercise significant judgment in evaluating the amount and timing of recognition of the resulting tax liabilities and assets. These judgments require us to make projections of future taxable income. The judgments and estimates we make in determining our deferred tax assets, which are inherently subjective, are reviewed on a continual basis as regulatory and business factors change. Any reduction in estimated future taxable income may require us to record a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets.
The decrease in net deferred tax assets was driven by the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act"), which among other things reduced the federal corporate tax rate to 21% effective January 1, 2018 requiring the Company to revalue net deferred tax assets. The resulting estimated $17.7 million deferred tax revaluation was reflected as an increase to the Company's income tax expense. In addition, our June 30 fiscal year end required the use of a blended rate as prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code. The blended federal rate of 27.5% was retroactively effective July 1, 2017 and will be used for the entire fiscal year ending June 30, 2018. As a result of this blended rate, income tax expense for the quarter ended December 31, 2017 includes approximately $418,000 in tax benefit from adjusting the federal income tax rate to 27.5% from 34% for the first quarter of the fiscal year. The estimated $17.7 million deferred tax revaluation includes provisional amounts where a reasonable estimate was made to comply with the Tax Act, which can be adjusted throughout the measurement period or up to one year. These provisional amounts include estimates related to the timing of potential reversals of various deferred tax assets and liabilities during fiscal year 2018 using the blended tax rate as described above. The Company will continue to update the provisional amounts as additional information becomes available and expects all adjustments to be finalized by the end of fiscal 2018.
The Company had federal net operating loss ("NOL") carry forwards of $52,655$26,805 and $62,041$40,780 as of December 31, 20172018 and June 30, 2017,2018, respectively, with a recorded tax benefit of $11,109$5,538 and $21,443$8,635 included in deferred tax assets. The majority of these NOLs will expire for federal tax purposes from 2024 through 2036.
The Company also adjusted its net deferred tax asset as a resultvaluation allowance of additional reductions in the North Carolina corporate income tax rates that were enacted July 23, 2013, and effective January 1, 2014 through 2017. The lower corporate income tax rate resulted in a reduction in the deferred tax assets as of$325 at December 31, 20172018 and June 30, 2017 and an increase2018 relates to the potential future sequestration of the Company's alternative minimum tax credit included in income tax expense for the six months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017 was $54 and $238, respectively. The net decrease in the total valuation allowance relates to North Carolina state income taxes due to limitations on state net operating loss carry forwards.assets.
Retained earnings at December 31, 20172018 and June 30, 20172018 include $19,570 representing pre-1988 tax bad debt reserve base year amounts for which no deferred tax liability has been provided since these reserves are not expected to reverse and may never reverse. Circumstances that would require an accrual of a portion or all of this unrecorded tax liability are a failure to meet the definition of a bank, dividend payments in excess of current year or accumulated earnings and profits, or other distributions in dissolution or liquidation of the Bank. The Company is no longer subject to examination for federal and state purposes for tax years prior to 2013.2014.

10.Commitments and Contingencies
Loan Commitments – Legally binding commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. In the normal course of business, there are various outstanding commitments to extend credit that are not reflected in the consolidated financial statements. At December 31, 20172018 and June 30, 2017,2018, respectively, loan commitments (excluding $123,262$197,728 and $158,380$209,726 of undisbursed portions of construction loans) totaled $54,720$60,248 and $43,730$49,949 of which $25,846$17,989 and $21,221$19,812 were variable rate commitments and $28,874$42,258 and $22,509$30,137 were fixed rate commitments. The fixed rate loans had interest rates ranging from 2.03%2.39% to 7.75%7.55% at December 31, 20172018 and 1.95%2.10% to 6.25%6.15% at June 30, 2017,2018, and terms ranging from three to 30 years. Pre-approved but unused lines of credit (principally second mortgage home equity loans and overdraft protection loans) totaled $447,787$488,071 and $414,373$491,649 at December 31, 20172018 and June 30, 2017,2018, respectively. These amounts represent the Company's exposure to credit risk, and in the opinion of management have no more than the normal lending risk that the Company commits to its borrowers. The Company has two types of commitments related to loans held for sale: rate lock commitments and forward loan commitments. Rate lock commitments are commitments to extend credit to a customer that has an interest rate lock and are considered derivative instruments. The rate lock commitments do not qualify for hedge accounting. In order to mitigate the risk from interest rate fluctuations, we enter into forward loan sale commitments on a “best efforts” basis, which do not meet the definition of a derivative instrument. The fair value of these commitments was not material at December 31, 20172018 or June 30, 2017.2018.
The Company grants construction and permanent loans collateralized primarily by residential and commercial real estate to customers throughout its primary market area. In addition, the Company grants municipal leases to customers throughout North and South Carolina. The Company's loan portfolio can be affected by the general economic conditions within these market areas.
Restrictions on Cash – The Bank is required by regulation to maintain a varying cash reserve balance with the Federal Reserve System.FRB. The daily average calculated cash reserve required as of December 31, 20172018 and June 30, 20172018 was $2,513,$1,786, and $2,152,$2,304, respectively, which was satisfied by vault cash and balances held at the FRB.
Guarantees – Standby letters of credit obligate the Company to meet certain financial obligations of its customers, if, under the contractual terms of the agreement, the customers are unable to do so. The financial standby letters of credit issued by the Company are irrevocable and payment is only guaranteed upon the borrower's failure to perform its obligations to the beneficiary. Total commitments under standby letters of credit as of December 31, 20172018 and June 30, 20172018 were $9,927$8,826 and $5,164,$8,227, respectively. There was no liability recorded for these letters of credit at December 31, 20172018 or June 30, 2017,2018, respectively.
Litigation TheFrom time to time, the Company is involved in several litigation matters in the ordinary course of business. These proceedings and the associated legal claims are often contested and the outcome of individual matters is not always predictable. These claims and counter claims typically arise during the course of collection efforts on problem loans or with respect to actions to enforce liens on properties in which the Company holds a security interest. The Company is not a party to any pending legal proceedings that management believes would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
11.Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company utilizes fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and to determine fair value disclosures. Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, the Company may be required to record at fair value other assets on a nonrecurring basis, such as impaired loans. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve application of lower of cost or market accounting or write-downs of individual assets. The fair value of financial instruments presented in this note, with the exception of loans receivable, are based on the same methodology as presented in Note 20 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s 2018 10-K. The Company has adopted ASU 2016-01, and therefore is measuring the fair value of loans receivable under the exit price notion rather than the previous method of entry price notion. Under the previous method, the fair value estimate of loans receivable was based on discounted cash flow. At September 30, 2018, the exit price notion used to estimate the fair value of loans receivable was based on similar techniques, with the addition of liquidity premiums. The fair value of nonperforming loans is based on the underlying value of the collateral for periods prior to and after adoption of ASU 2016-01.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The Company groups assets at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets 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.
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 all significant assumptions are observable in the market.
Level 3:Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset. Valuation techniques include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

Investment Securities Available for Sale
Securities available for sale are valued on a recurring basis at quoted market prices where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted prices of comparable securities. Level 2 securities include equity securities, mortgage-backed securities and debentures issued by government sponsored enterprises, municipal bonds, and corporate debt securities. The Company has no Level 3 securities.

Impaired Loans
The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. From time to time, however, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, the fair value is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value and discounted cash flows. The Company reviews all impaired loans each quarter to determine if an allowance is necessary. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investments in such loans.
The fair value of impaired loans is estimated in one of two ways, which include collateral value and discounted cash flows. Loans are considered collateral dependent if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. For these collateral dependent impaired loans, the Company obtains updated appraisals at least annually. These appraisals are reviewed for appropriateness and then discounted for estimated closing costs to determine if an allowance is necessary. As part of the quarterly review of impaired loans, the Company reviews these appraisals to determine if any additional discounts to the fair value are necessary. If a current appraisal is not obtained, the Company determines whether a discount is needed to the value from the original appraisal based on the decline in value of similar properties with recent appraisals. For loans that are not collateral dependent, estimated fair value is based on the present value of expected future cash flows using the interest rate implicit in the original agreement. Impaired loans where a charge-off has occurred or an allowance is established during the period being reported require classification in the fair value hierarchy. The Company records such impaired loans as a nonrecurring Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. 
Loans Held for Sale
Loans held for sale are adjusted to lower of cost or fair value.  Fair value is based upon investor pricing.on commitments on hand from investors or, if commitments have not yet been obtained, what investors are currently offering for loans with similar characteristics. The Company considers all loans held for sale carried at fair value as nonrecurring Level 3.
Real Estate Owned
REO is considered held for sale and is adjusted to fair value less estimated selling costs upon transfer of the loan to foreclosed assets.  Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised value of the collateral or management's estimation of the value of the collateral. The Company considers all REO that has been charged off or received an allowance during the period as nonrecurring Level 3.
Small Business Investment Company
SBICs are carried at the lower of cost or cost less a valuation allowance, which is based a financial review of the investment. The Company considers SBICs that have been adjusted through an allowance during the period as nonrecurring Level 3.

The Company had off-balance sheet financial commitments, which included approximately $625,769$746,047 and $616,483$751,324 of commitments to originate loans, undisbursed portions of interim construction loans, and unused lines of credit at December 31, 20172018 and June 30, 2017,2018, respectively (see Note 10). Since these commitments are based on current rates, the carrying amount approximates the fair value.
Estimated fair values were determined using the following methods and assumptions:
Cash and interest-bearing deposits – The stated amounts approximate fair values as maturities are less than 90 days.

30

HOMETRUST BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

Commercial paper - The stated amounts approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these investments.
Certificates of deposit in other banks – The stated amounts approximate fair values.
Securities available for sale – Fair values are based on quoted market prices where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.
Loans held for sale – The fair value of mortgage loans held for sale is determined by outstanding commitments from investors on a "best efforts" basis or current investor yield requirements, calculated on the aggregate loan basis. The fair value of SBA loans held for sale is based on what investors are currently offering for loans with similar characteristics.
Loans, net – Fair values for loans are estimated by segregating the portfolio by type of loan and discounting scheduled cash flows using current market interest rates for loans with similar terms and credit quality. A prepayment assumption is used as an estimate of the portion of loans that will be repaid prior to their scheduled maturity. BothFor the carrying value and estimatedDecember 31, 2018 fair value, amountsa liquidity premium assumption is used as an estimate for the additional return required by an investor of assets that are shown net of the allowance for loan losses and purchase discounts.potentially considered illiquid.
FHLB and FRB stock– No ready market exists for these stocks and they have no quoted market value. However, redemptions of these securities have historically been at par value. Accordingly, cost is deemed to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.
SBIC– No ready market exists for these investments and they have no quoted market value. SBIC are valued at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions of identical or similar investments. Accordingly, cost is deemed to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Deposits Fair values for demand deposits, money market accounts, and savings accounts are the amounts payable on demand as of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017.demand. The fair value of certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the contractual cash flows using current market interest rates for accounts with similar maturities.
Borrowings – The fair value of advances from the FHLB is estimated based on current rates for borrowings with similar terms.
Accrued interest receivable and payable – The stated amounts of accrued interest receivable and payable approximate the fair value.
Limitations – Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company's entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company's financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
Fair value estimates are based on existing on-and-off balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments. For example, a significant asset not considered

a financial asset is premises and equipment. In addition, tax ramifications related to the realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on fair value estimates and have not been considered in any of the estimates.
12.Revenue
On July 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” and all subsequent ASUs that modified ASC 606. The adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on the measurement or recognition of revenue. Results for reporting periods beginning after July 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts reflect an offset of $198 and $393 of interchange costs against interchange income for the three and six months ended December 31, 2018.
ASC 606 does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, including revenue from loans and securities. In addition, certain noninterest income streams such as fees associated with mortgage servicing rights, financial guarantees, and certain credit card fees are also not in scope of the new guidance. ASC 606 is applicable to noninterest revenue streams such as deposit related fees, interchange fees, merchant income, and various other service fees. However, the recognition of these revenue streams did not change significantly upon adoption of ASC 606. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is generated from contracts with customers. The Company has made no significant judgments in applying the revenue guidance prescribed in ASC 606 that affect the determination of the amount and timing of revenue streams with customers.

The following is a description of revenue streams accounted for under ASC 606:
Service charges on deposit accounts
Service charges on deposit accounts consist of account analysis fees (i.e., net fees earned on analyzed business and public checking accounts), monthly service fees, nonsufficient fund fees, check orders, and other deposit account related fees. The Company’s performance obligation for account analysis fees and monthly service fees is generally satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, over the period in which the service is provided. Nonsufficient fund fees, check orders and other deposit account related fees are largely transactional based, and therefore, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied and related revenue recognized, at a point in time. Payment for service charges on deposit accounts is primarily received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to customers’ accounts.
Fees, interchange, and other service charges
Fees, interchange, and other service charges are primarily comprised of debit and credit card income, ATM fees, merchant services income, and other service charges. Debit and credit card income is primarily comprised of interchange fees earned whenever the Company’s debit and credit cards are processed through card payment networks such as Visa. ATM fees are primarily generated when a Company cardholder uses a non-Company ATM or a non-Company cardholder uses a Company ATM. Merchant services income mainly represents fees charged to merchants to process their debit and credit card transactions, in addition to account management fees. Other service charges include revenue from processing wire transfers, cashier’s checks, and other services. The Company’s performance obligation for fees, interchange, and other service charges are largely satisfied, and related revenue recognized, when the services are rendered or upon completion. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month.
Other
Other noninterest income consists of safety deposit box rental fees and other miscellaneous revenue streams. Safe deposit box rental fees are charged to the customer on an annual basis and recognized upon receipt of payment. The Company determined that since rentals and renewals occur fairly consistently over time, revenue is recognized on a basis consistent with the duration of the performance obligation.

As used throughout this report, the terms "we", "our", "us", "HomeTrust Bancshares" or the "Company" refer to HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, including HomeTrust Bank (the "Bank") unless the context indicates otherwise.
Overview
HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc., a Maryland corporation, was formed for the purpose of becoming the holding company for HomeTrust Bank in connection with HomeTrust Bank’s conversion from mutual to stock form, which was completed on July 10, 2012 (the “Conversion”). As a bank holding company and financial holding company, HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. is regulated by the Federal Reserve. As a North Carolina state-chartered bank, and member of the Federal Reserve System, the Bank's primary regulators are the NCCOB and the Federal Reserve. The Bank's deposits are federally insured up to applicable limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB” or “FHLB of Atlanta”), which is one of the 12 regional banks in the Federal Home Loan Bank System (“FHLB System”).System. Our headquarters is located in Asheville, North Carolina.
Our principal business consists of attracting deposits from the general public and investing those funds, along with borrowed funds, in loans secured by first and second mortgages on one-to-four family residences, including home equity loans and construction and land/lot loans, commercial real estate loans, construction and development loans, commercial and industrial loans, U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA") loans, indirect automobile loans, and municipal leases. Municipal leases are secured primarily by a ground lease for a firehouse or an equipment lease for fire trucks and firefighting equipment to fire departments located throughout North and South Carolina. We also purchase investment securities consisting primarily of securities issued


by United States Government agencies and government-sponsored enterprises, as well as, commercial paper and certificates of deposit insured by the FDIC.
We offer a variety of deposit accounts for individuals, businesses, and nonprofit organizations. Deposits and borrowings are our primary source of funds for our lending and investing activities.
We are significantly affected by prevailing economic conditions, as well as, government policies and regulations concerning, among other things, monetary and fiscal affairs, housing and financial institutions. Deposit flows are influenced by a number of factors, including interest rates paid on competing time deposits, other investments, account maturities, and the overall level of personal income and savings. Lending activities are influenced by the demand for funds, the number and quality of lenders, and regional economic cycles.
Our primary source of pre-tax income is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income, which is the income that we earn on our loans and investments, and interest expense, which is the interest that we pay on our deposits and borrowings. Changes in levels of interest rates affect our net interest income. A secondary source of income is noninterest income, which includes revenue we receive from providing products and services, including service charges on deposit accounts, loan income and fees, SBA lending fees,gain on sale of loans, and gains and losses from sales of securities.
An offset to net interest income is the provision for loan losses which is required to establish the allowance for loan losses at a level that adequately provides for probable losses inherent in our loan portfolio. As a loan's risk rating improves, property values increase, or recoveries of amounts previously charged off are received, a recapture of previously recognized provision for loan losses may be added to net interest income.
Our noninterest expenses consist primarily of salaries and employee benefits, expenses for occupancy, marketing and computer services, and FDIC deposit insurance premiums. Salaries and benefits consist primarily of the salaries and wages paid to our employees, payroll taxes, expenses


for retirement and other employee benefits. Occupancy expenses, which are the fixed and variable costs of buildings and equipment, consist primarily of lease payments, property taxes, depreciation charges, maintenance and costs of utilities.
In recent years, we have expanded our geographic footprint into seven additional markets through strategic acquisitions as well as three de novo commercial loan offices.offices and one de novo branch office. Looking forward, we believe opportunities currently exist within our market areas to grow our franchise. We anticipate organic growth as the local economy and loan demand strengthens, through our marketing efforts and as a result of the opportunities being created as a result of the consolidation of financial institutions occurring in our market areas. We may also seek to expand our franchise through the selective acquisition of individual branches, loan purchases and, to a lesser degree, whole bank transactions that meet our investment and market objectives. We will continue to be disciplined as it pertains to future expansion focusing primarily on organic growth in our current market areas.
On January 1, 2017, the Company completed its acquisition of TriSummit pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 20, 2016, under which TriSummit merged with and into HomeTrust with HomeTrust as the surviving corporation in the Merger. Immediately following the Merger, TriSummit's wholly owned subsidiary bank, TriSummit Bank, merged with and into the Bank. See Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this report for more details on the Merger.
On August 1, 2017, the Company opened a commercial loan production office in Greensboro, North Carolina.
At December 31, 2017,2018, we had 43 locations in North Carolina (including the Asheville metropolitan area, Greensboro/"Piedmont" region, Charlotte, and Raleigh)Raleigh/Cary), Upstate South Carolina (Greenville), East Tennessee (including Kingsport/Johnson City/Bristol, Knoxville, and Morristown) and Southwest Virginia (including the Roanoke Valley).
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Certain of our accounting policies are important to the portrayal of our financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates associated with these policies are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts and circumstances. Facts and circumstances which could affect these judgments include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, changes in the performance of the economy, and changes in the financial condition of borrowers. These policies relate to (i) the determination of the provision and the allowance for loan losses, (ii) business combinations and acquired loans, (iii) the valuation of REO, (iv) the valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, and (v) the valuation of or recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities. These policies and estimates are described in further detail in Part II, Item 7 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies with the 20172018 Form 10-K. There have not been any material changes in the Company's critical accounting policies and estimates during the six months ended December 31, 20172018 as compared to the disclosure contained in the Company's 20172018 Form 10-K, with the exception of the revaluation of net deferred tax assets related to the Tax Act. For more information on the revaluation, see Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this report.
On April 5, 2012, the JOBS Act was signed into law. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, reduce certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. As an "emerging growth company" we may delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to private companies. We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period, although we have not done so to date. Accordingly, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards or disclosures.10-K.
Reclassifications and corrections. To maintain consistency and comparability, certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation with no effect on net income, or shareholders’ equity, or cash flows as previously reported.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements. Refer to Note 2 of our consolidated financial statements for a description of recent accounting pronouncements including the respective dates of adoption and effects on results of operations and financial condition.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP, this report contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, which include: tangible book value; tangible book value per share;share, tangible equity to tangible assets ratio; net interest income and net interest margin as adjusted to exclude additional FHLB borrowings and proceeds from such borrowings; net income, earnings per share ("EPS"), return on assets ("ROA"), and return on equity ("ROE") excluding merger-related expenses, certain state income tax expense, adjustments for the change in federal tax law, and gain from the sale of premises and equipment; and the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans excluding acquired loans. Management elected to utilize short-term FHLB borrowings beginning in November 2014 as part of a leverage strategy to increase net interest income. The Company believes that showing the effects of these borrowings on net interest income and net interest margin is useful to both management and investors as these measures are commonly used to measure financial institution's performance and against peers.

Management has presented the non-GAAP financial measures in this discussion and analysis excluding merger-related expenses, certain state tax expense, adjustments for the change in federal tax law, and gain from the sale of premises because it believes excludingincluding these items is more indicative of and provides useful and comparative information to assess trends in our core operations while facilitating comparison of the quality and composition of the Company’s earnings over time and in comparison to its competitors. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental, are not audited and are not a substitute for operating results or any analysis determined in accordance with GAAP. Where applicable, we have also presented comparable earnings information using GAAP financial measures. Because not all companies use the same calculations, our presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures as calculated by other companies. See “Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 20172018 and 2016”2017” for more detailed information about our financial performance.

Recently, ourOur expansion into larger metro markets as well as in-market acquisitions combined with improvements in the economy, employment rates, stronger real estate prices, and a general lack of new housing inventory in certain markets have led to us significantly increasing originations of construction loans for properties located in our market areas. We have hired experienced commercial real estate relationship managers, credit officers, and developed a construction risk management group to better manage construction risk, as part of our efforts to grow the construction portfolio. We will continue to take a disciplined approach in our construction and land development lending by concentrating our efforts on smaller one-to-four residential loans to builders known to us and developers of commercial real estate and multifamily properties with proven success in this type of construction. At December 31, 2017,2018, construction and land/lots totaled $60.8$74.5 million including $46.4$62.7 million of one-to-four family construction loans that will roll over to permanent loans upon completion of the construction period, excluding unfundedperiod. Undisbursed construction and land/lots loan commitments of $59.3at December 31, 2018 totaled $59.2 million. Total construction and development loans at December 31, 2017,2018, were $185.9$198.8 million, excluding unfunded loan commitments of $123.3$152.7 million, of which $69.5$80.8 million was for non-residential commercial real estate construction, $65.0$67.3 million was for land development, $39.6$46.3 million was for speculative construction of single family properties, and $11.8$4.4 million was for multi-family construction. Undisbursed construction and development loan commitments at December 31, 20172018 included $80.9$87.9 million of commercial real estate projects, multi-family residential projects of $8.7$38.3 million and $33.7$26.5 million for the speculative construction of one- to four-family residential properties. The increase in commercial and industrial loans was driven by growth from our new equipment finance line of business. At December 31, 2018, commercial and industrial loans totaled $224.6 million, which included $81.0 million in equipment finance loans and capital leases.
Asset Quality. Our overall asset quality metrics continue to demonstrate our commitment to growing and maintaining a loan portfolio with a moderate risk profile. Nonperforming assets decreased $800,000 to $19.2$2.0 million or 0.59%13.5% to $12.6 million, or 0.37% of total assets, at December 31, 20172018 from $20.0$14.6 million, or 0.44% of total assets at June 30, 2017.2018. Nonperforming assets included $14.4$9.6 million in nonaccruing loans and $4.8$3.0 million in REO at December 31, 2017,2018, compared to $13.7$10.9 million and $6.3$3.7 million, in nonaccruing loans and REO respectively, at June 30, 2017.2018. Included in nonperforming loans are $4.8$3.9 million of TDR loans restructured from their original terms of which $2.1$2.2 million were current with respect to their modified payment terms. The increasedecrease in nonaccruing loans was primarily due to one construction and development relationship totaling $771,000, partially offset by loans returning to performing status as payment history and the borrower's financial status improved. At December 31, 2017, $4.62018, $5.8 million, or 32.1%60.0%, of nonaccruing loans were current on their loan payments. Purchased credit impairedPCI loans aggregating $4.6$2.1 million obtained through prior acquisitions were excluded from nonaccruing loans due to the accretion of discounts established in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. Nonperforming loans to total loans was 0.59%0.37% at December 31, 20172018 compared to 0.58%0.43% at June 30, 2017.2018.
The ratio of classified assets to total assets decreased to 1.39%0.97% at December 31, 20172018 from 1.57%1.00% at June 30, 2017.2018. Classified assets decreased 10.8% to $44.8remained consistent at $33.2 million at December 31, 20172018 compared to $50.2$33.1 million at June 30, 2017 primarily due to payoffs of two commercial real estate loans totaling $1.6 million and the decrease in REO of $1.5 million.2018. Delinquent loans (loans delinquent 30 days or more) increased to $17.3$13.2 million at December 31, 2017,2018, from $15.2$9.8 million at June 30, 20172018 primarily due to one construction and developmentcommercial real estate loan relationship in the 90+ day category and one-to-four family loans in the 30-60 day category.relationship.
As of December 31, 2017,2018, we had identified $40.8$27.8 million of impaired loans compared to $43.0$31.4 million at June 30, 2017.2018. Our impaired loans are comprised of loans on non-accrual status and all TDRs, whether performing or on non-accrual status under their restructured terms. Impaired loans may be evaluated for reserve purposes using either a specific impairment analysis or on a collective basis as part of homogeneous pools. As of December 31, 2017,2018, there were $19.8$10.9 million loans individually evaluated for impairment and $21.0$16.9 million were collectively evaluated. For more information on these impaired loans, see Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this report.


Allowance for loan losses.  We establish an allowance for loan losses by charging amounts to the loan loss provision at a level required to reflect estimated credit losses in the loan portfolio. In evaluating the level of the allowance for loan losses, management considers, among other factors, historical loss experience, the types of loans and the amount of loans in the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect borrowers' ability


to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, prevailing economic conditions and current risk factors specifically related to each loan type.
The allowance for loan losses was $21.1$21.4 million, or 0.87%0.81% of total loans, at December 31, 20172018 compared to $21.2$21.1 million, or 0.90%0.83% of total loans, at June 30, 2017.2018. The allowance for loan losses to gross loans excluding acquired loans was 0.97%0.89% at December 31, 2017,2018, compared to 1.03%0.91% at June 30, 2017.2018. Loans acquired from acquisitions are recorded at fair value, which includes a credit discount, therefore, no allowance for loan losses is established for these acquired loans unless the credit quality deteriorates further subsequent to the acquisition. The allowance for our acquired loans at December 31, 20172018 was $566,000$199,000 compared to $727,000$483,000 at June 30, 2017.2018.
There was no provision for loan loss during the three and six months ended December 31, 20172018 and December 31, 20162017 as the allowance for loan losses required by our loan growth was offset by continued improvements in our asset quality. Net loan charge offsrecoveries totaled $907,000$359,000 for the threesix months ended December 31, 20172018 compared to net recoveriesloan charge-offs of $35,000$61,000 for the same period during the prior fiscal year. Net charge offs totaled $61,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2017 compared to $306,000 for the same period during the prior fiscal year. Net charge offsrecoveries as a percentage of average loans increased to 0.15%(0.03)% for the threesix months ended December 31, 20172018 from net recoveriescharge-offs of (0.01)% for the same period last fiscal year. Net charge offs as a percentage of average loans decreased to 0.01% compared to 0.03% for the same period last fiscal year.
The allowance as a percentage of nonaccruing loans decreasedincreased to 146.79%221.45% at December 31, 20172018 from 154.77%192.96% at June 30, 2017.2018.
We believe that the allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 20172018 was adequate to absorb the known and inherent risks of loss in the loan portfolio at that date. While we believe the estimates and assumptions used in our determination of the adequacy of the allowance are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such estimates and assumptions will not be proven incorrect in the future, or that the actual amount of future provisions will not exceed the amount of past provisions or that any increased provisions that may be required will not adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the determination of the amount of the allowance for loan losses is subject to review by bank regulators as part of the routine examination process, which may result in the establishment of additional reserves based upon their judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination.
Real estate owned. REO decreased $1.5 million,$729,000, or 19.8% to $4.8$3.0 million at December 31, 20172018 primarily due to $2.2 million$571,000 in REO sales during the period, partially offset by $591,000 in properties transferred to REO and a gain on sale of REO of $393,000 during the period.six months ended December 31, 2018. The total balance of REO at December 31, 20172018 included $1.9 million$943,000 in land, construction and development projects (both residential and commercial), $1.8$1.5 million in commercial real estate, and $1.1 million$557,000 in single-family homes.
Deferred income taxes. Deferred income taxes decreased $20.9$4.0 million, or 36.4%12.4%, to $36.5$28.5 million at December 31, 20172018 from $57.4$32.6 million at June 30, 2017.2018. The decrease was primarily driven by the previously mentioned revaluation as a result of the Tax Act, the realization of net operating losses through increases in taxable income, and to a lesser extent, the revaluation of deferred tax assets relating to a change in North Carolina's corporate tax rate, as discussed below.income.
Goodwill. Goodwill remained unchanged at $25.6 million at both December 31, 20172018 and June 30, 2017.2018.

The increase was primarily due to an increase of $79.8 million2018.

Rate/Volume Analysis
The following table presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for major components of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. It distinguishes between the changes related to outstanding balances and that due to the changes in interest rates. For each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, information is provided on changes attributable to (i) changes in volume (i.e., changes in volume multiplied by old rate) and (ii) changes in rate (i.e., changes in rate multiplied by old volume). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

Comparison of Results of Operation for the Three Months Ended December 31, 20172018 and 20162017
General.  During the three months ended December 31, 2017,2018, we had net income of $8.0 million compared to a net loss of $10.7 million, driven by an estimated $17.7 million deferred tax revaluation resulting from enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act”), compared to net income of $3.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016.2017. The Company's diluted earnings per share was $0.43 for the three months ended December 31, 2018 compared to a diluted loss per share wasof $0.59 for the same period in fiscal 2018. Earnings for the three months ended December 31, 2017 compared to earning per shareincluded an approximately $17.7 million write-down of $0.17 fordeferred tax assets ("DTA") as a result of the enactment of the Tax Act with no comparable charge in the same period in fiscal 2017. The Tax Act, among other things, reduced the federal corporate tax rate to 21% effective January 1, 2018 requiring the Company to revalue net deferred tax assets. The resulting estimated $17.7 million deferred tax revaluation was reflected as an increase to the Company's income tax expense.period. Net income and diluted earnings per share beforeexcluding state tax expense rate changes, adjustments for the change in the federal tax law rate, and prior year merger-related expensesgain from the sale of premises and equipment for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 was $8.0 million and $0.43, compared to $7.0 million and $0.38, compared to $3.0 million and $0.17, respectively.

The average balance of other interest-earning assets increased $32.7 million, or 13.5% primarily due to increases in commercial paper investments. These increases were mainly funded by the cumulative decrease of $43.0$91.8 million, or 7.0%28.1% in average interest-earning deposits within other banks and securities available for sale, and other interest-earning assets, an increase in average interest-bearing deposits of $307.9$122.5 million, or 17.2%, and an increase in average FHLB borrowings of $130.7 million, or 23.9%6.8% as compared to the same quarter last year.

Accretable income on acquired loans stems from the discount established at the time these loan portfolios were acquired and the related impact of prepayments on purchased loans. Each quarter, the Company analyzes the cash flow assumptions on the PCI loan pools and, at least semi-annually, the Company updates loss estimates, prepayment speeds and other variables when analyzing cash flows. In addition to this accretion income, which is recognized over the estimated life of the loan pools, if a loan is removed from a pool due to payoff or foreclosure, the unaccreted discount in excess of losses is recognized as an accretion gain in interest income. As a result, income from loan pools can be volatile from quarter to quarter. For the quarters ended December 31, 20172018 and 2016,2017, the average loan yieldsyield included 1513 and 1615 basis points, respectively, from the accretion of purchase discounts on acquired loans.

Liquidity
Management maintains a liquidity position that it believes will adequately provide funding for loan demand and deposit run-off that may occur in the normal course of business. We rely on a number of different sources in order to meet our potential liquidity demands. The primary sources are increases in deposit accounts, and cash flows from loan payments, commercial paper, and the securities portfolio.
In addition to these primary sources of funds, management has several secondary sources available to meet potential funding requirements. As of December 31, 2017,2018, the Bank had an available borrowing capacity of $56.3$63.4 million with the FHLB of Atlanta, a $115.4$137.4 million line of credit with the FRB and three lines of credit with three unaffiliated banks totaling $60.0$70.0 million. At December 31, 2017,2018, we had $685.0$688.0 million in FHLB advances outstanding and nothing outstanding under our other lines of credit. Additionally, the Company classifies its securities portfolio as available for sale, providing an additional source of liquidity. Management believes that our security portfolio is of high quality and the securities would therefore be marketable. In addition, we have historically sold longer term fixed-rate mortgage loans in the secondary market to reduce interest rate risk and to create still another source of liquidity. From time to time we also utilize brokered time deposits to supplement our other sources of funds. Brokered time deposits are obtained by utilizing an outside broker that is paid a fee. This funding requires advance notification to structure the type of deposit desired by us. Brokered deposits can vary in term from one month to several years and have the benefit of being a source of longer-term funding. We also utilize brokered deposits to help manage interest rate risk by extending the term to repricing of our liabilities, enhance our liquidity and fund asset growth. Brokered deposits are typically from outside our primary market areas, and our brokered deposit levels may vary from time to time depending on competitive interest rate conditions and other factors. At December 31, 20172018 brokered deposits totaled $11.8$139.7 million, or 0.6%6.2% of total deposits.deposits compared to $108.9 million, or 4.9% of total deposits at June 30, 2018.
Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments, such as overnight deposits, federal funds, and federal funds.commercial paper. On a longer term basis, we maintain a strategy of investing in various lending products and investment securities, including mortgage-backed securities and commercial paper.securities. HomeTrust Bancshares on a stand-alone level is a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for its own liquidity and pay its own operating expenses. The Company's primary source of funds consists of the net proceeds retained from the Conversion. The Company also has the ability to receive dividends or capital distributions from the Bank, although there are regulatory restrictions on the ability of the Bank to pay dividends. At December 31, 2017,2018, the Company (on an unconsolidated basis) had liquid assets of $20.1$8.7 million.
We use our sources of funds primarily to meet our ongoing commitments, pay maturing deposits and fund withdrawals, and to fund loan commitments. At December 31, 2017,2018, the total approved loan commitments and unused lines of credit outstanding amounted to $178.0$258.0 million and $447.8$488.1 million, respectively, as compared to $202.1$259.7 million and $414.4$491.6 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2017.2018. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at December 31, 2017,2018, totaled $302.2$289.5 million. It is management's policy to manage deposit rates that are competitive with other local financial institutions. Based on this management strategy, we believe that a majority of maturing deposits will remain with us.
During the first six months of fiscal 2018,2019, cash and cash equivalents increased $11.7$560,000, or 0.8%, to $71.3 million or 13.4%,as of December 31, 2018 from $87.0$70.7 million as of June 30, 2017 to $98.7 million as of December 31, 2017.2018. Cash provided by operating and financing activities was $13.0$6.3 million and $48.3$98.6 million, respectively; while cash used in investing activities was $49.6$104.4 million. Primary sources of cash for the six months ended December 31, 20172018 included $19.7 million in proceeds from the maturity of securities available for sale, $31.9$15.0 million in maturing certificates of deposit in other banks,financial institutions, net of purchases, $10.9$11.6 million in maturing securities available for sale, $9.7 million in principal repayments from mortgage-backed securities, and a $59.8$61.8 million increase in deposits.deposits, and a $53.0 million net increase in borrowings. Primary uses of cash during the period included a net increase in commercial paper of $48.4$7.2 million, an increase in loans of $65.8$109.0 million, $15.8 million of purchases of securities available for sale, $5.5 million in purchases of operating lease equipment and a $11.5$15.6 million decrease in borrowings.common stock repurchases. All sources and uses of cash reflect our cash management strategy to increase our number of higher yielding investments and loans by increasing lower costing borrowings and reducing our holdings inof lower yielding investments.
Off-Balance Sheet Activities
In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that are not recorded in our financial statements. These transactions involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet credit, interest rate and liquidity risks. These transactions are used primarily to manage customers' requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit. For the six months ended December 31, 2017,2018, we engaged in no off-balance sheet transactions likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Capital Resources
At December 31, 2017,2018, stockholder's equity totaled $395.4$411.0 million. HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. is a bank holding company and a financial holding company subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve. As a bank holding company, we are subject to capital adequacy requirements of the Federal Reserve under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended and the regulations of the Federal Reserve. Our subsidiary, the Bank, an FDIC-insured, North Carolina state-chartered bank and a member of the Federal Reserve System, is supervised and regulated by the Federal Reserve and the NCCOB and is subject to minimum capital requirements applicable to state member banks established by the Federal Reserve that are calculated in a manner similar to those applicable to bank holding companies.
Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
At December 31, 2017,2018, HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. and the Bank each exceeded all regulatory capital requirements as of that date. Consistent with our goals to operate a sound and profitable organization, our policy is for the Bank to maintain a “well-capitalized” status under the regulatory capital categories of the Federal Reserve. The Bank was categorized as "well-capitalized" at December 31, 20172018 under applicable regulatory requirements.

In addition to the minimum common equity Tier 1 ("CET1"), Tier 1 and total risk-based capital ratios, HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. and the Bank now have to maintain a capital conservation buffer consisting of additional CET1 capital above the required minimum levels in order to avoid limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying discretionary bonuses based on percentages of eligible retained income that could be utilized for such actions. ThisThe new capital conservation buffer requirement haswas phased in startingbeginning in January 2016 atwhen a buffer more than 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and will increasewas required, which amount increased each year until fully implementedby 0.625% to an amount equal tomore than 2.5% of risk-weightedrisk weighted assets inon January 1, 2019. At December 31, 2017,2018, the Bank’s CET1 capital exceeded the required capital conservation buffer of 1.25%.was an amount more than 1.875%
Impact of Inflation
The effects of price changes and inflation can vary substantially for most financial institutions. While management believes that inflation affects the growth of total assets, it believes that it is difficult to assess the overall impact. Management believes this to be the case due to the fact that generally neither the timing nor the magnitude of the inflationary changes in the consumer price index ("CPI") coincides with changes in interest rates. The price of one or more of the components of the CPI may fluctuate considerably and thereby influence the overall CPI without having a corresponding effect on interest rates or upon the cost of those goods and services normally purchased by the Company. In years of high inflation and high interest rates, intermediate and long-term interest rates tend to increase, thereby adversely impacting the market values of investment securities, mortgage loans and other long-term fixed rate loans. In addition, higher short-term interest rates caused by inflation tend to increase the cost of funds. In other years, the opposite may occur.


Item 3.      Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
There has not been any material change in the market risk disclosures contained in our 20172018 Form 10-K.
Item 4.      Controls and Procedures
An evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Act")) as of December 31, 2017,2018, was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and several other members of the Company's senior management. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures in effect as of December 31, 2017,2018, were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Act is: (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. In addition, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Act) that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2017,2018, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errorerrors and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls may be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by override of the control. The design of any control procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
