QCR HoldingsGuaranty Bankshares Statutory Trust IVI was dissolvedacquired in 2016 after2017 as part of the Company purchased the related security at auction, as notedacquisition of Guaranty Bank and is further discussed in Note 2512 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other Ownership Interests.In addition to its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Company owns a 20% equity position in Nobel Real Estate Investors, LLC. In June 2005, CRBT entered into a joint venture as a 50% owner of Cedar Rapids Mortgage Company, LLC, which provided residential real estate mortgage lending services. During the first quarter of 2013, CRBT and the partner mutually terminated the joint venture. CRBT continues to provide residential real estate mortgage lending services through its consumer banking division. In December 2014, QCBT entered into a joint venture as a 20% owner of Ruhl Mortgage, to provide residential real estate mortgage lending services and products to QCBT clients.Business.

Business.The Company’s principal business consists of attracting deposits and investing those deposits in loans/leases and securities. The deposits of the subsidiary banks are insured to the maximum amount allowable by the FDIC. The Company’s results of operations are dependent primarily on net interest income, which is the difference between the interest earned on its loans/leases and securities and the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. The Company’s operating results are affected by economic and competitive conditions, particularly changes in interest rates, government policies and actions of regulatory authorities, as described more fully in this Form 10-K.10‑K. Its operating results also can be affected by trust fees, investment advisory and management fees, deposit service charge fees, gains on the sale of residential real estate and government guaranteed loans, earnings from BOLI and other noninterest income. Operating expenses include employee compensation and benefits, occupancy and equipment expense, professional and data processing fees, advertising and marketing expenses, bank service charges, FDIC and other insurance, loan/lease expenses and other administrative expenses.

The Company and its subsidiaries collectively employed 406755 and 409641 FTEs at December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, respectively.

The majority of the increase in FTEs during 2018 was the result of the additions of  SFC Bank and the Bates Companies and new positions created to accommodate the increased scale of our operations.

The Federal Reserve is the primary federal regulator of the Company, QCBT, CRBT, CSB, SFC Bank and its subsidiaries. In addition,RB&T.  QCBT, CRBT and CRBTCSB are also regulated by the Iowa Superintendent of Banking, SFC Bank is regulated by the Missouri Division of Finance and RB&T is regulated by the IDFPR. The FDIC, as administrator of the Deposit Insurance Fund,DIF, also has regulatory authority over the subsidiary banks. See Appendix A for more information on the federal and state statutes and regulations that are applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries.


Lending/Leasing.The Company and its subsidiaries provide a broad range of commercial and retail lending/leasing and investment services to corporations, partnerships, individuals, and government agencies. The subsidiary banks actively market their services to qualified lending and deposit clients. Officers actively solicit the business of new clients entering their market areas as well as long-standing members of the local business community. The Company has an established lending/leasing policy which includes a number of underwriting factors to be considered in making a loan/lease, including, but not limited to, location, loan-to-value ratio, cash flow, collateral and the credit history of the borrower.

In accordance with Iowa regulation, the legal lending limit to one borrower for QCBT, CRBT and CRBT,CSB, calculated as 15% of aggregate capital, was $19.7$24.3 million, $25.2 million, and $15.8$12.9 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2015.2018. In accordance with Missouri regulation, the legal lending limit to one borrower for SFC Bank, calculated as 15% of aggregate capital, totaled $8.6 million as of December 31, 2018. In accordance with Illinois regulation, the legal lending limit to one borrower for RB&T, calculated as 25% of aggregate capital, totaled $9.6$12.6 million as of December 31, 2015.

2018. 

The Company recognizes the need to prevent excessive concentrations of credit exposure to any one borrower or group of related borrowers. As such, the Company has established an in-house lending limit, which is lower than each subsidiary bank’s legal lending limit, in an effort to manage individual borrower exposure levels.

The in-house lending limit is the maximum amount of credit each subsidiary bank will extend to a single borrowing entity or group of related entities. As of January 1, 2017, the Company implemented a tiered approach, based on the risk rating of the borrower. Under the most recent in-house limit, total credit exposure to a single borrowing entity or group of related entities will not exceed the following, subject to certain exceptions:

On a consolidated basis, the in-house lending limit is $15.0 million, which isThe QCRH Consolidated amount represents the maximum amount of credit that all affiliated banks, when combined, will extend to a single borrowing entity or group of related entities, subject to certain exceptions.

In addition, m2’s in-house lending limit is $1.0 million to a single leasing entity or group of related entities.

entities, subject to certain exceptions.

As part of the loan monitoring activity at the threefive subsidiary banks, credit administration personnel interact closely with senior bank management. For example, the internal loan committee of each subsidiary bank meets weekly. The Company has a separate in-house loan review function to analyze credits of the subsidiary banks.   To complement the in-house loan review, an independent third-party performs external loan reviews. Historically, management has attempted to identify problem loans at an early stage and to aggressively seek a resolution of those situations.

The Company recognizes that a diversified loan/lease portfolio contributes to reducing risk in the overall loan/lease portfolio. The specific loan/lease portfolio mix is subject to change based on loan/lease demand, the business environment

and various economic factors. The Company actively monitors concentrations within the loan/lease portfolio to ensure appropriate diversification and concentration risk is maintained.


Specifically, each subsidiary bank’s total loans as a percentage of average assets may not exceed 85%. In addition, following are established policy limits and the actual allocations for the three subsidiary banks as of December 31, 20152018 for the loan portfolio on a perorganized by loan type, basis, reflected as a percentage of the subsidiary bank’s average gross loans:

Proper pricing of loans is necessary to provide adequate return to the Company’s stockholders. Loan pricing, as established by the subsidiary banks’ internal loan committees, includes consideration for the cost of funds, loan maturity and risk, origination and maintenance costs, appropriate stockholder return, competitive factors, and the economic environment. The portfolio contains a mix of loans with fixed and floating interest rates. Management attempts to maximize the use of interest rate floors on its variable rate loan portfolio. Refer to Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk for more discussion on the Company’s management of interest rate risk.


C&I Lending

As noted above, the subsidiary banks are active C&I lenders. The current areas of emphasis include loans to smallandsmall and mid-sized businesses with a wide range of operations such as wholesalers, manufacturers, building contractors, business services companies, other banks, and retailers. The banks provide a wide range of business loans, including lines of credit for working capital and operational purposes, and term loans for the acquisition of facilities, equipment and other purposes. Since 2010, the subsidiary banks have been active in participating in lending programs offered by the SBA and USDA. Under these programs, the government entities will generally provide a guarantee of repayment ranging from 50% to 85% of the principal amount of the qualifying loan.

7


Loan approval is generally based on the following factors:

·

Ability and stability of current management of the borrower;

·

Stable earnings with positive financial trends;

·

Sufficient cash flow to support debt repayment;

·

Earnings projections based on reasonable assumptions;

·

Financial strength of the industry and business; and

·

Value and marketability of collateral.

For C&I loans, the Company assigns internal risk ratings which are largely dependent upon the aforementioned approval factors. The risk rating is reviewed annually or on an as needed basis depending on the specific circumstances of the loan. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statementsConsolidated Financial Statements for additional information, including the internal risk rating scale.

As part of the underwriting process, management reviews current borrower financial statements. When appropriate, certain C&I loans may contain covenants requiring maintenance of financial performance ratios such as, but not limited to:

·

Minimum debt service coverage ratio;

·

Minimum current ratio;

·

Maximum debt to tangible net worth ratio; and/or

·

Minimum tangible net worth.

Establishment of these financial performance ratios depends on a number of factors, including risk rating and the specific industry.

Collateral for these loans generally includes accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, and real estate. The Company’s lending policy specifies approved collateral types and corresponding maximum advance percentages. The value of collateral pledged on loans must exceed the loan amount by a margin sufficient to absorb potential erosion of its value in the event of foreclosure and cover the loan amount plus costs incurred to convert it to cash. Approved non-real estate collateral types and corresponding maximum advance percentages for each are listed below.

Generally, if the above collateral is part of a cross-collateralization with other approved assets, then the maximum advance percentage may be higher.

The Company’s lending policy specifies maximum term limits for C&I loans. For term loans, the maximum term is generally seven years. Generally, term loans range from three to five years. For lines of credit, the maximum term is typically 365 days. For low income housing tax credits permanent loans, the maximum term is generally up to 20 years.

In addition, the subsidiary banks often take personal guarantees or cosignorscosigners to help assure repayment. Loans may be made on an unsecured basis if warranted by the overall financial condition of the borrower.

Following is a summary of the five largest industry concentrations within the C&I portfolio as of December 31, 2018 and 2017:

CRE LendingThese loan categories are defined by industry-standard NAICS codes – refer to NAICS.com for category descriptions.

 

CRE Lending

The subsidiary banks also make CRE loans. CRE loans are subject to underwriting standards and processes similar to C&I loans, in addition to those standards and processes specific to real estate loans. Collateral for these loans generally includes the underlying real estate and improvements, and may include additional assets of the borrower. The Company’s lending policy specifies maximum loan-to-value limits based on the category of CRE (commercial real estate loans on improved property, raw land, land development, and commercial construction). These limits are the same limits as, or in some situations, more conservative than, those established by regulatory authorities. Following is a listing of these limits as well as some of the other guidelines included in the Company’s lending policy for the major categories of CRE loans:

*     Generally, the debt service coverage ratio must be a minimum of 1.25x for non-owner occupied loans and 1.15x for owner-occupied loans. For loans greater than $500 thousand, the subsidiary banks sensitize this ratio for deteriorated economic conditions, major changes in interest rates, and/or significant increases in vacancy rates.

**  These maximum rates are consistent with, or in some situations, more conservative than, those established by regulatory authorities.

*** Generally, the maximum term for land development loans is 12 months but there are some situations where the maximum term would be 24 months.

The Company’s lending policy also includes guidelines for real estate appraisals and evaluations, including minimum appraisal and evaluation standards based on certain transactions. In addition, the subsidiary banks often take personal guarantees to help assure repayment.

In addition, management tracks the level of owner-occupied CRE loans versus non-owner occupied CRE loans. Owner-occupied CRE loans are generally considered to have less risk. As of December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, approximately 35%28% and 37%26%, respectively, of the CRE loan portfolio was owner-occupied.


The Company’s lending policy limitsIn accordance with regulatory guidelines, the Company exercises heightened risk management practices when non-owner occupied CRE lending toexceeds 300% of total risk-based capital and limitsor construction, land development and other land loans toexceed 100% of total risk-based capital. ExceedingAlthough CSB’s loan portfolio has historically been real estate dominated and its real estate portfolio levels exceed these policy limits, warrants the useit has established a Credit Risk Committee to routinely monitor its real estate loan portfolio.

Direct Financing Leasing

m2 leases machinery and equipment to C&I customers under direct financing leases. All lease requests are subject to the credit requirements and criteria as set forth in the lending/leasing policy. In all cases, a formal independent credit analysis of the lessee is performed.

The following private and public sector business assets are generally acceptable to consider for lease funding:

·

Computer systems;

·

Photocopy systems;

·

Fire trucks;

·

Specialized road maintenance equipment;

·

Medical equipment;

·

Commercial business furnishings;

·

Vehicles classified as heavy equipment;

·

Trucks and trailers;

·

Equipment classified as plant or office equipment; and

·

Marine boat lifts.

m2 will generally refrain from funding leases of the following type:

·

Leases collateralized by non-marketable items;

·

Leases collateralized by consumer items, such as vehicles, household goods, recreational vehicles, boats, etc.;

·

Leases collateralized by used equipment, unless its remaining useful life can be readily determined; and

·

Leases with a repayment schedule exceeding seven years.


Residential Real Estate Lending

Generally, the subsidiary banks’ residential real estate loans conform to the underwriting requirements of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae to allow the subsidiary banks to resell loans in the secondary market. The subsidiary banks structure most loans that will not conform to those underwriting requirements as adjustable rate mortgages that adjust in one to five years, and then retain these loans in their portfolios. Servicing rights are generally not presently retained on the loans sold in the secondary market. The Company’s lending policy establishes minimum appraisal and other credit guidelines.

The following table presents the originations and sales of residential real estate loans for the Company. Included in originations is activity related to the refinancing of previously held in-house mortgages.

Installment and Other Consumer Lending

The consumer lending department of each subsidiary bank provides many types of consumer loans, including home improvement, home equity, motor vehicle, signature loans and small personal credit lines. The Company’s lending policy addresses specific credit guidelines by consumer loan type. In particular, for home equity loans and home equity lines of credit, the minimum credit bureau score is 680.650. For both home equity loans and lines of credit, the maximum advance rate is 90% of value with a minimum credit bureau score of 720, and the maximum advance rate is 80% of value with a credit bureau score of 680 to 719.650. The maximum term on home equity loans is 10 years and maximum amortization is 15 years. The maximum term on home equity lines of credit is five10 years.

In some instances for all loans/leases, it may be appropriate to originate or purchase loans/leases that are exceptions to the guidelines and limits established within the Company’s lending policy described above. In general, exceptions to the

11


lending policy do not significantly deviate from the guidelines and limits established within the lending policy and, if there are exceptions, they are generally noted as such and specifically identified in loan/lease approval documents.

Competition.The Company currently operates in the highly competitive Quad Cities, Cedar Rapids, Waterloo/Cedar Falls, Des Moines, Springfield, and Rockford markets. Competitors include not only other commercial banks, credit unions, thrift institutions, and mutual funds, but also insurance companies, FinTech companies, finance companies, brokerage firms, investment banking companies, and a variety of other financial services and advisory companies. Many of these competitors are not subject to the same regulatory restrictions as the Company. Many of these unregulated competitors compete across geographic boundaries and provide customers increasing access to meaningful alternatives to banking services. The Company competes in markets with a number of much larger financial institutions with substantially greater resources and larger lending limits.

Appendices.The commercial banking business is a highly regulated business. See Appendix A for a summary of the federal and state statutes and regulations that are applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries. Supervision, regulation and examination of banks and bank holding companies by bank regulatory agencies are intended primarily for the protection of depositors rather than stockholders of bank holding companies and banks.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors

Risk Factors

In addition to the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K,10‑K, stockholders or prospective investors should carefully consider the following risk factors:

A prolonged continuation of economic uncertainty or worsening of currentConditions in the financial market and economic conditions, could haveincluding conditions in the markets in which we operate, generally may adversely affect our business.

Our general financial performance is highly dependent upon the business environment in the markets where we operate and in particular, the ability of borrowers to pay interest on and repay principal of outstanding loans and the value of collateral securing those loans, as well as demand for loans and other products and services it offers. A favorable business environment is generally characterized by, among other factors, economic growth, efficient capital markets, low inflation, low unemployment, high business and investor confidence, and strong business earnings. Unfavorable or uncertain economic and market conditions can be caused by declines in economic growth, business activity or investor or business confidence; limitations on the availability or increases in the cost of credit and capital; increases in inflation or interest rates; high unemployment, natural disasters, or a material adverse effect on our financial condition and resultscombination of operations.

these or other factors.

While economic indicatorsconditions have generally shown signs of gradual improvement, uncertainty related to U.S. and worldwide fiscal issues, political climates and global economic conditions continue. Thereimproved since the recession, there can be no assurance that this improvement will continue or be spread evenly throughoutcontinue. Uncertainty regarding continuing economic improvement may result in changes in consumer and business spending, borrowing, and savings habits. Downturns in the markets that the Company serves. Continued uncertainty, elevated unemployment, volatility or disruptions of global financial markets, or prolonged deterioration in the global, national or local business or economic conditionswhere our banking operations occur could result in among other things, a deterioration of credit quality, further impairment of real estate values or a reduceddecrease in demand for credit or otherour products and services, we offer to clients.

Additionally, competitive dynamicsan increase in loan delinquencies and defaults, high or increased levels of problem assets and foreclosures and reduced wealth management fees resulting from lower asset values. Such conditions could adversely affect the credit quality of our industry could change as a result of continued consolidation of financial services companies in connection with current market conditions.

If market conditions do not continue to improve or worsen to recessionary conditions, and/or if negative developments in the domestic and international credit markets continue, there can be no assurance that we will not experience an adverse effect, which may be material, on our ability to access capital and on our business,loans, financial condition and results of operations.

Potential future acquisitions could be difficult to integrate, divert the attention of key personnel, disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value and adversely affect our financial results.

As part of our business strategy, we may consider acquisitions of other banks or financial institutions or branches, assets or deposits of such organizations. There is no assurance, however, that we will determine to pursue any of these

12


opportunities or that if we determine to pursue them that we will be successful. Acquisitions involve numerous risks, any of which could harm our business, including:

·

difficulties in integrating the operations, technologies, products, existing contracts, accounting processes and personnel of the target company and realizing the anticipated synergies of the combined businesses;

 

·

difficulties in supporting and transitioning customers of the target company;

 

·

diversion of financial and management resources from existing operations;

 

·

the price we pay or other resources that we devote may exceed the value we realize, or the value we could have realized if we had allocated the purchase price or other resources to another opportunity;

 


·

risks of entering new markets or areas in which we have limited or no experience or are outside our core competencies;

 

·

potential loss of key employees, customers and strategic alliances from either our current business or the business of the target company;

 

·

risks of acquiring loans with deteriorated credit quality;

·

assumption of unanticipated problems or latent liabilities; and

 

·

inability to generate sufficient revenue to offset acquisition costs.

Future acquisitions may involve the issuance of our equity securities as payment or in connection with financing the business or assets acquired, and as a result, could dilute the ownership interests of existing stockholders. In addition, consummating these transactions could result in the incurrence of additional debt and related interest expense, as well as unforeseen liabilities, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. The failure to successfully evaluate and execute acquisitions or otherwise adequately address the risks associated with acquisitions could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We must effectively manage our credit risk.

There are risks inherent in making any loan, including risks inherent in dealing with specific borrowers, risks of nonpayment, risks resulting from uncertainties as to the future value of collateral and risks resulting from changes in economic and industry conditions. We attempt to minimize our credit risk through prudent loan application approval procedures, careful monitoring of the concentration of our loans within specific industries and periodic independent reviews of outstanding loans by our credit review department and an external third party. However, we cannot assure you that such approval and monitoring procedures will reduce these credit risks.

The majority of our subsidiary banks’ loan portfolios are invested in C&I and CRE loans, and we focus on lending to small to medium-sized businesses. The size of the loans we can offer to commercial customers is less than the size of the loans that our competitors with larger lending limits can offer. This may limit our ability to establish relationships with the area’s largest businesses. Smaller companies tend to be at a competitive disadvantage and generally have limited operating histories, less sophisticated internal record keeping and financial planning capabilities and fewer financial resources than larger companies. As a result, we may assume greater lending risks than financial institutions that have a lesser concentration of such loans and tend to make loans to larger, more established businesses. Collateral for these loans generally includes accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and real estate. However, depending on the overall financial condition of the borrower, some loans are made on an unsecured basis. In addition to C&I and CRE loans, our subsidiary banks are also active in residential mortgage and consumer lending. Our borrowers may experience financial difficulties, and the level of nonperforming loans, charge-offs and delinquencies could rise, which could negatively impact our business through increased provision, reduced interest income on loans/leases, and increased expenses incurred to carry and resolve problem loans/leases.

13


C&I loans make up a large portion of our loan/lease portfolio.

C&I loans were $648.2 million,$1.4 billion, or approximately 36%38% of our total loan/lease portfolio, as of December 31, 2015.2018. Our C&I loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flow of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. Most often, this collateral is accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and real estate. Credit support provided by the borrower for most of these loans and the probability of repayment is based on the liquidation value of the pledged collateral and enforcement of a personal guarantee, if any exists. Whenever possible, we require a personal guarantee or cosigner on commercial loans. As a result, inIn the case of loans secured by accounts receivable, the availability of funds for the repayment of these loans may be substantially dependent on the ability of the borrower to collect amounts due from its customers. The collateral securing these loans may lose value over time, may be difficult to appraise, and may fluctuate in value based on the success of the business. In addition, a prolonged recovery period could harm or continue to harm the businesses of our C&I customers and reduce the value of the collateral securing these loans.


Our loan/lease portfolio has a significant concentration ofCRE loans, which involve risks specific to real estate values.

CRE lending comprises a significant portion of our lending business. Specifically, CRE loans were $724.4 million,$1.8 billion, or approximately 40%48% of our total loan/lease portfolio, as of December 31, 2015.2018. Of this amount, $252.5$500.7 million, or approximately 35%28%, was owner-occupied. The market value of real estate securing our CRE loans can fluctuate significantly in a short period of time as a result of market conditions in the geographic area in which the real estate is located. Adverse developments affecting real estate values in one or more of our markets could increase the credit risk associated with our loan portfolio. Additionally, real estate lending typically involves higher loan principal amounts and the repayment of the loans generally is dependent, in large part, on sufficient income from the properties securing the loans to cover operating expenses and debt service. Economic events or governmental regulations outside of the control of the borrower or lender could negatively impact the future cash flow and market values of the affected properties.

The problems that have occurred in the residential real estate and mortgage markets throughout much of the U.S. in prior years also affected the commercial real estate market. In our market areas, we generally experienced a downturn in credit performance by our CRE loan customers in prior years relative to historical norms, and despite recent improvements in certain aspects of the economy, a level of uncertainty continues to exist in the economy and credit markets, theremarkets. There can be no guarantee that we will not experience further deterioration in the performance of CRE and other real estate loans in the future. In such case, we may not be able to realize the amount of security that we anticipated at the time of originating the loan, which could cause us to increase our provision for loan losses and adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and/or capital.

Our allowance may prove to be insufficient to absorb losses in our loan/lease portfolio.

We establish our allowance for loan and lease losses in consultation with management of our subsidiaries and maintain it at a level considered adequate by management to absorb loan/lease losses that are inherent in the portfolio. The amount of future loan/lease losses is susceptible to changes in economic, operating and other conditions, including changes in interest rates, which may be beyond our control, and such losses may exceed current estimates. At December 31, 2015,2018, our allowance as a percentage of total gross loans/leases was 1.46%1.07%, and as a percentage of total NPLs was 223.33%214.80%. In accordance with GAAP for acquisition accounting, the loans acquired through the acquisitions of SFC Bank, Guaranty Bank and CSB were recorded at fair value; therefore, there was no allowance associated with SFC Bank’s, Guaranty Bank’s and CSB’s loans at acquisition. Management continues to evaluate the allowance needed on the acquired loans factoring in the net remaining discount ($11.6 million at December 31, 2018).

In addition, we had net charge-offs as a percentage of gross average loans/leases of 0.22%0.21% for the year ended December 31, 2015.2018. Because of the concentration of C&I and CRE loans in our loan portfolio, which tend to be larger in amount than residential real estate and installment loans, the movement of a small number of loans to nonperforming status can have a significant impact on these ratios. Although management believes that the allowance as of December 31, 20152018 was adequate to absorb losses on any existing loans/leases that may become uncollectible, we cannot predict loan/lease losses with certainty, and we cannot assure you that our allowance will prove sufficient to cover actual loan/lease losses in the future, particularly if economic conditions are more difficult than what management currently expects. Additional provisions and loan/lease losses in excess of our allowance may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Company’s information systems may experience an interruption or breach in security and cyber-attacks, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.

The Company relies heavily on internal and outsourced technologies, communications, and information systems to conduct its business. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Company collects, processes and retains sensitive and confidential information regarding our customers. As the Company’s reliance on technology has increased, so have the potential risks of a technology-related operation interruption (such as disruptions in the Company’s customer relationship management, general ledger, deposit, loan, or other systems) or the occurrence of a cyber-attacks (such as unauthorized access to the Company’s systems). These risks have increased for all financial institutions as new technologies, the use of the Internet and telecommunications technologies (including mobile devices) to conduct financial and other business transactions and the increased sophistication and activities of organized crime, perpetrators of fraud, hackers, terrorists and others have also increased. In addition to cyber-attacks or other security breaches involving the theft of sensitive and confidential information, hackers have engaged in attacks against financial institutions, retailers and government agencies, particularly denial of service attacks that are designed to disrupt key business or government services, such as customer-facing web sites. The Company is not able to anticipate or implement effective preventive measures against all security breaches of these types, especially because the techniques used change frequently and because attacks can originate from a wide variety of sources. It is also possible that a cyber incident, such as a security breach, may remain undetected for a period of time, further exposing the Company to technology-related risks. However, applying guidance from the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council, the Company has analyzed and will continue to analyze security related to device specific considerations, user access topics, transaction-processing and network integrity.


The Company also faces risks related to cyber-attacks and other security breaches in connection with credit card and debit card transactions that typically involve the transmission of sensitive information regarding the Company’s customers through various third parties, including merchant acquiring banks, payment processors, payment card networks and its processors. Some of these parties have in the past been the target of security breaches and cyber-attacks, and because the transactions involve third parties and environments such as the point of sale that the Company does not control or secure, future security breaches or cyber-attacks affecting any of these third parties could impact the Company through no fault of its own, and in some cases it may have exposure and suffer losses for breaches or attacks relating to them. Despite third-party security risks that are beyond our control, the Company offers its customers protection against fraud and attendant losses for unauthorized use of debit cards in order to stay competitive in the marketplace. Offering such protection (including the cost of replacing compromised cards) to our customers exposes the Company to potential losses which, in the event of a data breach at one or more retailers of considerable magnitude, may adversely affect its business, financial condition, and results of operations. Further cyber-attacks or other breaches in the future, whether affecting the Company or others, could intensify consumer concern and regulatory focus and result in reduced use of payment cards and increased costs, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business. To the extent we are involved in any future cyber-attacks or other breaches, the Company’s reputation could be affected, which could also have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

System failure or breaches of our network security could subject us to increased operating costs as well as litigation and other liabilities.

The computer systems and network infrastructure we use could be vulnerable to unforeseen problems. Our operations are dependent upon our ability to protect our computer equipment against damage from physical theft, fire, power loss, telecommunications failure or a similar catastrophic event, as well as from security breaches, denial of service attacks, viruses, worms and other disruptive problems caused by hackers. Any damage or failure that causes an interruption in our operations could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Computer break-ins, phishing and other disruptions could also jeopardize the security of information stored in and transmitted through our computer systems and network infrastructure, as well as that of our customers engaging in internet banking activities, which may result in significant liability to us and may cause existing and potential customers to refrain from doing business with us. Although we, with the help of third-party service providers, intend to continue to implement security technology and establish operational procedures to prevent such damage, there can be no assurance that these security measures will be successful. In addition, advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other developments could result in a compromise or breach of the algorithms we and our third-party service providers use to encrypt and protect customer transaction data. Any interruption in, or breach of security of, our computer systems and network infrastructure, or that of our internet banking customers, could damage our reputation, result in a loss of customer business, subject us to additional regulatory scrutiny, or expose us to civil litigation and possible financial liability, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. The Company may also

15


 

need to spend additional resources to enhance protective and detective measures or to conduct investigations to remediate any vulnerabilities that arise.

We are subject to certain operational risks, including, but not limited to, customer or employee fraud and data processing system failures and errors.

Employee errors and employee and customer misconduct could subject us to financial losses or regulatory sanctions and seriously harm our reputation. Misconduct by our employees could include hiding unauthorized activities from us, improper or unauthorized activities on behalf of our customers or improper use of confidential information. It is not always possible to prevent employee errors and misconduct, and the precautions we take to prevent and detect this activity may not be effective in all cases. Employee errors could also subject us to financial claims for negligence.

We maintain a system of internal controls and insurance coverage to mitigate operational risks, including data processing system failures and errors and customer or employee fraud. Despite having business continuity plans and other safeguards, the Company could still be affected. Should our internal controls fail to prevent or detect an occurrence, and if any resulting loss is not insured or exceeds applicable insurance limits, such failure could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.


We may be materially and adversely affected by the highly regulated environment in which we operate.

The Company and its bank subsidiaries are subject to extensive federal and state regulation, supervision and examination. Banking regulations are primarily intended to protect depositors’ funds, FDIC funds, customers and the banking system as a whole, rather than stockholders. These regulations affect our lending practices, capital structure, investment practices, dividend policy and growth, among other things.

As a bank holding company, we are subject to regulation and supervision primarily by the Federal Reserve. QCBT, CRBT and CRBT,CSB, as Iowa-chartered state member banks, are subject to regulation and supervision primarily by both the Iowa Superintendent and the Federal Reserve. RB&T, as an Illinois-chartered state member bank, is subject to regulation and supervision primarily by both the DFPRIDFPR and the Federal Reserve. SFC Bank, as a Missouri-chartered commercial bank, is subject to regulation by both the Missouri Division of Finance and the Federal Reserve. We and our banks undergo periodic examinations by these regulators, who have extensive discretion and authority to prevent or remedy unsafe or unsound practices or violations of law by banks and bank holding companies.

The primary federal and state banking laws and regulations that affect us are described in Appendix A to this report. These laws, regulations, rules, standards, policies and interpretations are constantly evolving and may change significantly over time. For example, on July 21, 2010, the Dodd-Frank Act was signed into law, which significantly changed the regulation of financial institutions and the financial services industry. The Dodd-Frank Act, together with the regulations to be developed thereunder, includes provisions affecting large and small financial institutions alike, including several provisions that affect how community banks, thrifts and small bank and thrift holding companies are regulated. In addition, in recent years the Federal Reserve has adopted numerous new regulations addressing banks’ overdraft and mortgage lending practices. Further, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau was recently established, with broad powers to supervise and enforce consumer protection laws, and additional consumer protection legislation and regulatory activity is anticipated in the near future.

In September 2010, the Group of Governors and Heads of Supervision, the oversight body of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, adopted Basel III, which constitutes a strengthened set of capital requirements for banking organizations in the U.S. and around the world. In July 2013, the U.S. federal banking authorities approved the implementation of the Basel III regulatory capital reforms increased both the amount and issued rules effecting certain changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act (the “Basel III Rules”).  The Basel III Rules are applicable to all U.S. banks that are subject to minimum capital requirements, as well as to bank and savings and loan holding companies other than “small bank holding companies” (generally bank holding companies with consolidated assets of less than $1 billion).  The Basel III Rules not only increased most of the required minimum regulatory capital ratios, but they introduced a new Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratio and the concept of a capital conservation buffer.  The Basel III Rules also expanded the definitionquality of capital as in effect currently by establishing criteria that instruments must meet to be considered Additional Tier 1 Capital (Tier 1 Capital in addition to Common Equity) and Tier 2 Capital.  A number of instruments that now qualify as Tier 1 Capital will not qualify, or their qualifications will change.  The Basel III Rules also permit smaller banking organizations to retain, through a one-time election, the existing treatment for accumulated other comprehensive income, which currently does not affect regulatory capital.  The Company made this election in the first quarter of 2015. The Basel III Rules have maintained the general structure of the current prompt corrective action framework, while incorporating the increased requirements. The prompt corrective action guidelines were also revised to add the Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratio.  In order to be a “well-capitalized” depository institution under the new regime, a bank and holding company must maintain a Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratio of 6.5% or more; a Tier 1 Capital ratio of 8% or more; a Total Capital ratio of 10% or more; and a leverage ratio of 5% or more.  Generally, financial institutions became subject to the new Basel III Rules on January 1, 2015.  

must hold.

U.S. financial institutions are also subject to numerous monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements designed to detect and prevent illegal activities such as money laundering and terrorist financing. These requirements are imposed primarily through the Bank Secrecy Act which was most recently amended by the USA Patriot Act. We have instituted policies and procedures to protect us and our employees, to the extent reasonably possible, from being used to facilitate money laundering, terrorist financing and other financial crimes. There can be no guarantee, however, that these policies and procedures are effective.

Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations or policies could result in sanctions by regulatory agencies, civil monetary penalties, and/or damage to our reputation, which could have a material adverse effect on us. Although we have policies and procedures designed to mitigate the risk of any such violations, there can be no assurance that such violations will not occur.

Future legislation, regulation, and government policy could affect the banking industry as a whole, including our business and results of operations, in ways that are difficult to predict. In addition, our results of operations also could be adversely affected by changes in the way in which existing statutes and regulations are interpreted or applied by courts and government agencies.

Monetary policies and regulations of the Federal Reserve could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition to being affected by general economic conditions, our earnings and growth are affected by the policies of the Federal Reserve. An important function of the Federal Reserve is to regulate the money supply and credit conditions. Among the instruments used by the Federal Reserve to implement these objectives are open market operations in U.S. government securities, adjustments of the discount rate and changes in reserve requirements against bank deposits. These instruments are used in varying combinations to influence overall economic growth and the distribution of credit, bank loans, investments and deposits. Their use also affects interest rates charged on loans or paid on deposits.

The monetary policies and regulations of the Federal Reserve have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future. The effects of such policies upon our business, financial condition and results of operations cannot be predicted.

Interest rates and other conditions impact our results of operations.

Our profitability is in large part a function of the spread between the interest rates earned on investments and loans/leases and the interest rates paid on deposits and other interest bearing liabilities. Like most banking institutions, our net interest spread and margin will be affected by general economic conditions and other factors, including fiscal and monetary policies of the federal government that influence market interest rates and our ability to respond to changes in such rates. At any given time, our assets and liabilities will be such that they are affected differently by a given change in interest rates. As a result, an increase or decrease in rates, the length of loan/lease terms, the mix of adjustable and fixed rate loans/leases in our portfolio, the length of time deposits and borrowings, and the rate sensitivity of our deposit customers could have a positive or negative effect on our net income, capital and liquidity. We measure interest rate risk under various rate scenarios using specific criteria and assumptions. A summary of this process, along with the results of our net interest income simulations is presented at “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” included under Item 7A of Part II of this Form 10-K.10‑K. Although we believe our current level of interest rate sensitivity is reasonable and effectively managed, significant fluctuations in interest rates may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are required to maintain capital to meet regulatory requirements, and if we fail to maintain sufficient capital, whether due to losses, an inability to raise additional capital or otherwise, our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations, as well as our ability to maintain regulatory compliance, would be adversely affected.

The Company and each of its banking subsidiaries are required by federal and state regulatory authorities to maintain adequate levels of capital to support their operations, which have recently increased due to the effectiveness of the Basel III Rules.regulatory capital reforms. We intend to grow our business organically and to explore opportunities to grow our business by taking advantage of attractive acquisition opportunities, and such growth plans may require us to raise additional capital to ensure that we have adequate levels of capital to support such growth on top of our current operations. Our ability to raise additional capital, when and if needed or desired, will depend on conditions in the capital markets, economic conditions and a number of other factors, including investor perceptions regarding the banking industry and market conditions, and governmental activities, many of which are outside our control, and on our financial condition and performance. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that we will be able to raise additional capital if needed or on terms acceptable to us. Our failure to meet these capital and other regulatory requirements could affect customer confidence, our ability to grow, our costs of funds and FDIC insurance costs, our ability to pay dividends on common and preferred stock and to make distributions on our trust preferred securities, our ability to make acquisitions, and our business, results of operations and financial condition.


Failure to pay interest on our debt may adversely impact our ability to pay common stock dividends.

As of December 31, 2015,2018, we had $40.7$40.2 million of junior subordinated debentures held by six business trusts that we control. Interest paymentsexpense on the debentures, which totaled $1.3$2.0 million for 2015,2018, must be paid before we pay dividends on our capital stock, including our common stock. We have the right to defer interest payments on the debentures for up to 20 consecutive quarters. However, if we elect to defer interest payments, all deferred interest must be paid before we may pay dividends on our capital stock. Deferral of interest payments on the debentures could cause a subsequent decline in the market price of our common stock because we would not be able to pay dividends on our common stock.

As a bank holding company, our sources of funds are limited.

We are a bank holding company, and our operations are primarily conducted by our subsidiary banks, which are subject to significant federal and state regulation. When available, cash to pay dividends to our stockholders is derived primarily from dividends received from our subsidiary banks. Our ability to receive dividends or loans from our subsidiary banks is restricted. Dividend payments by our subsidiaries to us in the future will require generation of future earnings by them and could require regulatory approval if any proposed dividends are in excess of prescribed guidelines. Further, as a structural matter, our right to participate in the assets of our subsidiary banks in the event of a liquidation or reorganization of any of the banks would be subject to the claims of the creditors of such bank, including depositors, which would take priority except to the extent we may be a creditor with a recognized claim. As of December 31, 2015,2018, our subsidiary banks had deposits, borrowings and other liabilities in the aggregate of approximately $2.31$4.5 billion.

Declines in asset values may result in impairment charges and adversely affect the value of our investments, financial performance and capital.

The market value of investments in our securities portfolio has become increasingly volatile in recent years, and as of December 31, 2015,2018, we had gross unrealized losses of $5.4$12.9 million, or 0.9%1.9% of amortized cost, in our investment portfolio (almost entirely(partially offset by gross unrealized gains of $5.2$6.2 million). The market value of investments may be affected by factors other than the underlying performance of the servicer of the securities or the mortgages underlying the securities, such as ratings downgrades, adverse changes in the business climate and a lack of liquidity in the secondary market for certain investment securities. On a quarterly basis, we formally evaluate investments and other assets for impairment indicators. We may be required to record additional impairment charges if our investments suffer a decline in value that is considered other-than-temporary. If we determine that a significant impairment has occurred, we would be required to charge against earnings the credit-related portion of the OTTI, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in the periods in which the write-offs occur. Based on management’s evaluation, it was determined that the gross unrealized losses at December 31, 20152018 were temporary and primarily a function of the changes in certain market interest rates.

Liquidity risks could affect operations and jeopardize our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Liquidity is essential to our business. An inability to raise funds through deposits, borrowings, the sale of securities and/or loans and other sources could have a substantial negative effect on our liquidity. Our primary sources of funds consist of cash from operations, deposits, investment maturities, repayments, and calls, and loan/lease repayments. Additional liquidity is provided by federal funds purchased from the FRB or other correspondent banks, FHLB advances, wholesale and customer repurchase agreements, brokered time deposits, and the ability to borrow at the FRB’s Discount Window. Our access to funding sources in amounts adequate to finance or capitalize our activities or on terms that are acceptable to us could be impaired by factors that affect us directly or the financial services industry or economy in general, such as disruptions in the financial markets or negative views and expectations about the prospects for the financial services industry.

During the recent recession and subsequent recovery,periods of economic turmoil, the financial services industry and the credit markets generally weremay be materially and adversely affected by significant declines in asset values and by a lackdepressed levels of liquidity.  The liquidity issues were particularly acute for regional and community banks, as many of the larger financial institutions significantly curtailed their lending to regional and community banks to reduce their exposure to the risks of other banks.  In addition, many of the larger correspondent lenders reduced or even eliminated federal funds lines for their correspondent customers. Furthermore, regional and community banks generally have less access to the capital markets than do the national and super-regional banks because of their smaller size and limited analyst coverage. Any decline in available funding could adversely impact our ability to originate loans/leases, invest in securities, meet our expenses, pay dividends to our stockholders, or fulfill obligations such as repaying our borrowings or meeting deposit withdrawal demands, any of which could have a material adverse impact on our liquidity, business, results of operations and financial condition.

The success of our SBA lending program is dependent upon the continued availability of SBA loan programs, our status as a preferred lender under the SBA loan programs and our ability to comply with applicable SBA lending requirements.

As an SBA Preferred Lender, we enable our clients to obtain SBA loans without being subject to the potentially lengthy SBA approval process necessary for lenders that are not SBA Preferred Lenders. The SBA periodically reviews the lending operations of participating lenders to assess, among other things, whether the lender exhibits prudent risk management. When weaknesses are identified, the SBA may request corrective actions or impose other restrictions, including revocation of the lender’s SBA Preferred Lender status. If we lose our status as an SBA Preferred Lender, we may lose our ability to compete effectively with other SBA Preferred Lenders, and as a result we would experience a material adverse effect to

18



our financial results. Any changes to the SBA program, including changes to the level of guaranty provided by the federal government on SBA loans or changes to the level of funds appropriated by the federal government to the various SBA programs, may also have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Historically we have sold the guaranteed portion of our SBA 7(a) loans in the secondary market. These sales have resulted in our earning premium income and/or have created a stream of future servicing income. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue originating these loans, that a secondary market will exist or that we will continue to realize premiums upon the sale of the guaranteed portion of these loans. When we sell the guaranteed portion of our SBA 7(a) loans, we incur credit risk on the retained, non-guaranteed portion of the loans.

In the event of a loss resulting from default and the SBA determines there is a deficiency in the manner in which the loan was originated, funded or serviced by the us, the SBA may require us to repurchase the loan, deny its liability under the guaranty, reduce the amount of the guaranty, or, if it has already paid under the guaranty, seek recovery of the principal loss related to the deficiency from us, any of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

A prolonged U.S. government shutdown or default by the U.S. on government obligations would harm our results of operations.

 

Our results of operations, including revenue, non-interest income, expenses and net interest income, would be adversely affected in the event of widespread financial and business disruption on account of a default by the United States on U.S. government obligations or a prolonged failure to maintain significant U.S. government operations, including the recent partial shutdown of the U.S. government which ended on January 25, 2019.  Of particular impact to the Company are the operations pertaining to the SBA or the FDIC.  Any such failure to maintain such U.S. government operations, and the after-effects of such shutdown, could impede our ability to originate SBA loans and our ability to sell such loans in the secondary market, which would materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, many of our investment securities are issued by and some of our loans are made to the U.S. government and government agencies and sponsored entities. Uncertain domestic political conditions, including prior federal government shutdowns and potential future federal government shutdowns or other unresolved political issues, may pose credit default and liquidity risks with respect to investments in financial instruments issued or guaranteed by the federal government and loans to the federal government. Any downgrade in the sovereign credit rating of the United States, as well as sovereign debt issues facing the governments of other countries, could have a material adverse impact on financial markets and economic conditions in the United States and worldwide. Any such adverse impact could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.

Changes in U.S. trade policies, such as the implementation of tariffs, and other factors beyond the Company’s control may adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In 2018, the U.S. government implemented tariffs on certain products, and certain countries or entities, such as Mexico, Canada, China and the European Union, have issued or continue to threaten retaliatory tariffs against products from the United States, including agricultural products.  Additional tariffs and retaliatory tariffs may be imposed in the future by the United States and these and other countries.  Tariffs, retaliatory tariffs or other trade restrictions on products and materials that our customers import or export, including among others, agricultural products, could cause the prices of our customers’ products to increase which could reduce demand for such products, or reduce our customer margins, and adversely impact their revenues, financial results and ability to service debt, which, in turn, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, to the extent changes in the political environment have a negative impact on us or on the markets in which we operate, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely impacted in the future.

Our business is concentrated in and dependent upon the continued growth and welfare of the Quad Cities, Cedar Rapids, Waterloo/Cedar Falls, Des Moines/Ankeny, Springfield, and Rockford markets.

We operate primarily in the Quad Cities, Cedar Rapids, Waterloo/Cedar Falls, Des Moines/Ankeny, Iowa, Springfield, Missouri and Rockford, Illinois markets, and as a result, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows are subject to changes in the economic conditions in those areas. We have developed a particularly strong presence in Bettendorf, Cedar Falls, Cedar Rapids, Davenport, Waterloo, and Waterloo,Ankeny, Iowa and Moline, Rock Island, Springfield, Missouri and Rockford, Illinois and their surrounding communities. Our success depends upon the business activity,

19


population, income levels, deposits and real estate activity in these markets. Although our customers’ business and financial interests may extend well beyond these market areas, adverse economic conditions that affect these market areas could reduce demand for our products and services, affect the ability of our customers to repay their loans to us, increase the levels of our nonperforming and problem loans, and generally affect our financial condition and results of operations. Because of our geographic concentration, we are less able than other regional or national financial institutions to diversify our credit risks across multiple markets.

We face intense competition in all phases of our business from other banks and financial institutions.

The banking and financial services businesses in our markets are highly competitive. Our competitors include large regional banks, local community banks, savings and loan associations, securities and brokerage companies, mortgage companies, insurance companies, finance companies, money market mutual funds, credit unions, online lenders and other non-bank financial services providers. Many of these competitors are not subject to the same regulatory restrictions as we are. Many of our unregulated competitors compete across geographic boundaries and are able to provide customers with a feasible alternative to traditional banking services.

Increased competition in our markets may result in a decrease in the amounts of our loans and deposits, reduced spreads between loan/lease rates and deposit rates or loan/lease terms that are more favorable to the borrower. Any of these results could have a material adverse effect on our ability to grow and remain profitable. If increased competition causes us to significantly discount the interest rates we offer on loans or increase the amount we pay on deposits, our net interest income could be adversely impacted. If increased competition causes us to modifyour underwriting standards, we could be exposed to higher losses from lending and leasing activities. Additionally, many of our competitors are much larger in total assets and capitalization, have greater access to capital markets, have larger lending limits and offer a broader range of financial services than we can offer.

The stock market can be volatile, and fluctuations in our operating results and other factors, could cause our stock price to decline.

The stock market has experienced, and may continue to experience, fluctuations that significantly impact the market prices of securities issued by many companies. Most recently, like the stock of other financial institutions generally, the price of the Company’s common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Global Market has increased substantially since the U.S. presidential election. Market fluctuations could also adversely affect our stock price. These fluctuations have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations, as well as general economic, systemic, political and market conditions, such as recessions, loss of investor confidence, interest rate changes, or international currency fluctuations, may negatively affect the market price of our common stock. Moreover, our operating results may fluctuate and vary from period to period due to the risk factors set forth herein. As a result, period-to-period comparisons should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance. Our stock price could fluctuate significantly in response to our quarterly or annual results and the impact of these risk factors on our operating results or financial position.

The transition to an alternative reference rate could cause instability and have a negative effect on financial market conditions.

The LIBOR represents the interest rate at which banks offer to lend funds to one another in the international interbank market for short-term loans.  Beginning in 2008, concerns were expressed that some of the member banks surveyed by the BBA in connection with the calculation of LIBOR rates may have been under-reporting or otherwise manipulating the interbank lending rates applicable to them. Regulators and law enforcement agencies from a number of governments have conducted investigations relating to the calculation of LIBOR across a range of maturities and currencies. If manipulation of LIBOR or another inter-bank lending rate occurred, it may have resulted in that rate being artificially lower (or higher) than it otherwise would have been. Responsibility for the calculation of LIBOR was transferred to ICE Benchmark Administration Limited, as independent LIBOR administrator, effective February 1, 2014.

On July 27, 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that it will no longer persuade or compel banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR rates after 2021 (the “July 27th Announcement”). The July 27th Announcement indicates that the continuation of LIBOR on the current basis cannot and will not be guaranteed after 2021. Consequently, at this time, it is not possible to predict whether and to what extent banks will continue to provide LIBOR submissions to the administrator of LIBOR or whether any additional reforms to LIBOR may be enacted in the United Kingdom or elsewhere. Similarly, it is not possible to predict whether LIBOR will continue to be viewed as an acceptable benchmark,

20


what rate or rates may become accepted alternatives to LIBOR or the effect of any such changes in views or alternatives on the value of LIBOR-linked securities.

Although the Financial Stability Oversight Council has recommended a transition to an alternative reference rate in the event LIBOR is no longer available after 2021, such plans are still in development and, if enacted, could present challenges.  Moreover, contracts linked to LIBOR are vast in number and value, are intertwined with numerous financial products and services, and have diverse parties.  The downstream effect of unwinding or transitioning such contracts could cause instability and negatively impact the financial markets and individual institutions. The uncertainty surrounding the sustainability of LIBOR more generally could undermine market integrity and threaten individual financial institutions and the U.S. financial system more broadly.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research reports about us, if they adversely change their recommendations regarding our stock or if our operating results do not meet their expectations, the price of our stock could decline.

The trading market for our common stock can be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. If there is limited or no securities or industry analyst coverage of us, the market price for our stock could be negatively impacted. Moreover, if any of the analysts who elect to cover us downgrade our common stock, provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors or if our operating results or prospects do not meet their expectations, the market price of our common stock may decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of us or fails to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our stock could decrease, which could cause our stock price and trading volume to decline.

The soundness of other financial institutions could negatively affect us.

Our ability to engage in routine funding and other transactions could be negatively affected by the actions and commercial soundness of other financial institutions. Financial services institutions are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty or other relationships. Defaults by, or even rumors or questions about, one or more financial services institutions, or the financial services industry generally, have led to market-wide liquidity problems and losses of depositor, creditor and counterparty confidence and could lead to losses or defaults by us or by other institutions. We could experience increases in deposits and assets as a result of the difficulties or failures of other banks and government-sponsored financial institutions, which would increase the capital we need to support our growth.

Our community banking strategy relies heavily on our subsidiaries’ independent management teams, and the unexpected loss of key managers may adversely affect our operations.

We rely heavily on the success of our bank subsidiaries’ independent management teams. Accordingly, much of our success to date has been influenced strongly by our ability to attract and to retain senior management experienced in banking and financial services and familiar with the communities in our market areas. Our ability to retain the executive officers and current management teams of our operating subsidiaries will continue to be important to the successful implementation of our strategy. It is also critical, as we manage our existing portfolio and grow, to be able to attract and retain qualified additional management and loan officers with the appropriate level of experience and knowledge about our market areas to implement our community-based operating strategy. The unexpected loss of services of any key management personnel, or the inability to recruit and retain qualified personnel in the future, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Effective succession planning is also important to our long-term success. Failure to ensure effective transfer of knowledge and smooth transitions involving key employees could hinder our strategic planning and execution.


We have a continuing need for technological change, and we may not have the resources to effectively implement new technology.

The financial services industry continues to undergo rapid technological changes with frequent introductions of new technology-driven products and services. In addition to enabling us to better serve our customers, the effective use of technology increases efficiency and the potential for cost reduction. Our future success will depend in part upon our ability to address the needs of our customers by using technology to provide products and services that will satisfy customer demands for convenience as well as to create additional efficiencies in our operations as we continue to grow our market share. Many of our larger competitors have substantially greater resources to invest in technological improvements. As a

21


result, they may be able to offer additional or superior products to those that we will be able to offer, which would put us at a competitive disadvantage. Accordingly, we cannot provide you with assurance that we will be able to effectively implement new technology-driven products and services or be successful in marketing such products and services to our customers.

Our reputation could be damaged by negative publicity.

Reputational risk, or the risk to our business, financial condition or results of operations from negative publicity, is inherent in our business. Negative publicity can result from actual or alleged conduct in a number of areas, including legal and regulatory compliance, lending practices, corporate governance, litigation, inadequate protection of customer data, ethical behavior of our employees, and from actions taken by regulators, ratings agencies and others as a result of that conduct. Damage to our reputation could impact our ability to attract new or maintain existing loan and deposit customers, employees and business relationships.

The preparation of our consolidated financial statementsConsolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates and judgments, which are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty and which may differ from actual results.

Our consolidated financial statementsConsolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and general reporting practices within the financial services industry, which require us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Some accounting policies, such as those pertaining to our allowance, require the application of significant judgment by management in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates. By their nature, these estimates and judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty and actual results may differ from these estimates and judgments under different assumptions or conditions, which may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations in subsequent periods.

From time to time, the FASB and the SEC change the financial accounting and reporting standards or the interpretation of those standards that govern the preparation of our external financial statements. These changes are beyond our control, can be difficult to predict and could materially impact how we report our financial condition and results of operations.

Changes in these standards are continuously occurring,For example, the FASB has adopted a new accounting standard that will be effective for our first fiscal year after December 15, 2019. This standard, referred to as Current Expected Credit Loss, or CECL, will require financial institutions to determine periodic estimates of lifetime expected credit losses on loans, and givenrecognize the expected credit losses as allowances. This will change the current economic environment, more drastic changesmethod of providing allowances that are probable, which may occur. The implementationrequire us to increase our allowance, and to greatly increase the types of such changes coulddata we will need to collect and review to determine the appropriate level of the allowance. Any increase in our allowance or expenses incurred to determine the appropriate level of the allowance may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.


Secondary mortgage,government guaranteed loan and interest rate swap market conditions could have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Currently, we sell a portion of the residential real estate and government guaranteed loans we originate. The profitability of these operations depends in large part upon our ability to make loans and to sell them in the secondary market at a gain. Thus, we are dependent upon the existence of an active secondary market and our ability to profitably sell loans into that market.

In addition to being affected by interest rates, the secondary markets are also subject to investor demand for residential mortgages and government guaranteed loans and investor yield requirements for those loans. These conditions may fluctuate or even worsen in the future. As a result, a prolonged period of secondary market illiquidity may reduce our loan production volumes and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

The interest rate swap market is dependent upon market conditions. If interest rates move, interest rate swap transactions may no longer make sense for the Company and/or its customers. Interest rate swaps are generally appropriate for commercial customers with a certain level of expertise and comfort with derivatives, so our success is dependent upon the ability to make loans to these types of commercial customers. Additionally, our ability to execute interest rate swaps is also dependent upon counterparties that are willing to enter into the interest rate swap that is equal and offsetting to the interest rate swap we enter into with the commercial customer.

Customers may decide not to use banksConsumers and businesses are increasingly using non-banks to complete their financial transactions, which could result in a lossadversely affect our business and results of income to us.

operations.

Technology and other changes are allowing customersconsumers and businesses to complete financial transactions using nonbanks that historically have involved banks at one or both ends of the transaction.through alternative methods. For example, customersthe wide acceptance of Internet-based commerce has resulted in a number of alternative payment processing systems and lending platforms in which banks play only minor roles. Customers can now maintain funds in prepaid debit cards or digital currencies, and pay bills and transfer funds directly without going through a bank.the direct assistance of banks. The processdiminishing role of eliminating banks as financial intermediaries known as disintermediation,has resulted and could continue to result in the loss of fee income, as well as the loss of customer deposits and the related income generated from those deposits. The loss of these revenue streams and the potential loss of lower cost deposits as a source of funds could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

New lines of business or new products and services may subject us to additional risks.

From time to time, we may seek to implement new lines of business or offer new products and services within existing lines of business in our current markets or new markets. There are substantial risks and uncertainties associated with these efforts, particularly in instances where the markets are not fully developed. In developing and marketing new lines of business and/or new products and services, we may invest significant time and resources. Initial timetables for the introduction and development of new lines of business and/or new products or services may not be achieved and price and profitability targets may not prove feasible, which could in turn have a material negative effect on our operating results.

We have a substantial amount of debt outstanding and may incur additional indebtedness in the future, which could restrict our operations.

As of December 31, 2018, on an adjusted basis to give effect to the sale of our 5.375% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due February 15, 2029 (the “Notes”) and the application of the net proceeds to the repayment of our then existing indebtedness with First National Bank of Omaha, we had approximately $101.1 million of total indebtedness outstanding at the holding company level. In the future, it is possible that we may not generate sufficient revenues to service or repay our debt, and have sufficient funds left over to achieve or sustain profitability in our operations, meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs, and to pay dividends to our common stockholders.

Moreover, the degree to which we are leveraged could have important consequences for our stockholders, including:

limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate;

·

making it more difficult for us to satisfy our debt and other obligations;

·

limiting our ability to borrow additional funds, or to sell assets to raise funds, if needed, for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other purposes;

·

increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, including changes in interest rates; and

·

placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt.

As mentioned in the press release dated February 18, 2016, starting with the first quarter dividend declared on February 11, 2016, the board of directors has resolved to evaluate paying dividends on a quarterly basis, as opposed to the prior practice of semi-annual dividends. The Company anticipates an ongoing need to retain much of its operating income to help provide the capital for continued growth, but believes that operating results have reached a level that can sustain dividends, if declared, to stockholders.

The Company is heavily dependent on dividend payments from its subsidiary banks to provide cash flow for the operations of the holding company and dividend payments on the Company’s common stock. Under applicable state laws, the banks are restricted as to the maximum amount of dividends that they may pay on their common stock. Iowa, Illinois and IllinoisMissouri law provide that state-chartered banks in those states may not pay dividends in excess of their undivided profits.

The Company’s ability to pay dividends to its stockholders may be affected by both general corporate law considerations and policies of the Federal Reserve applicable to bank holding companies. The payment of dividends by any financial institution or its holding company is affected by the requirement to maintain adequate capital pursuant to applicable capital adequacy guidelines and regulations, and a financial institution generally is prohibited from paying any dividends if, following payment thereof, the institution would be undercapitalized.

See Appendix A for additional information regarding regulatory restrictions on the payment of dividends.

The Company also has certain contractual restrictions on its ability to pay dividends. The Company has issued junior subordinated debentures in private placements. Under the terms of the debentures, the Company may be prohibited, under certain circumstances, from paying dividends on shares of its common stock. None of these circumstances existed through the date of filing of this Form 10-K filed with the SEC.10‑K. See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding dividend restrictions.


Purchase of Equity Securities by the Company.There were no purchases of common stock by the Company forduring the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014,2018, 2017, and 2013.2016.

STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENTS

The Company took the following actions in 2018 to support our corporate strategy and further the long-term financial goals shown above.

Loan·

Organic loan and lease growth for the year was 10.3%9.8%. This was withinslightly below the Company’s target organic growth rate of 10-12%10‑12%. A majorityportion of this growth was in the C&I loan category. As of December 31, 2015,2018, this segment of the portfolio accounted for 36%38% of total loans and leases. At the same time, theThe Company has reduced its reliance onalso grown CRE loans, with that segment now representing 40%48% of the portfolio as of December 31, 2015, down from 43% as of December 31, 2014. This2018. The strong organic loan and lease growth has continued to help move the loan and lease to total asset ratio upward to 69%75%, from 65%74% in the prior year and 61%73% two years ago. Additionally,The Company has reached the Company continuestargeted loan and lease to evaluate market opportunities to rotate outtotal asset ratio in the range of securities and into loans and leases, as this will also make the balance sheet more profitable. Generally, securities have a lower yield; therefore, by replacing with loans and leases,73% - 78%. Going forward, the Company will strive to maintain the ratio in this range.

·

The Company intends to continue to participate in a prudent manner as an acquirer in the consolidation taking place in our markets to further boost ROAA and improve NIM.

In the secondfourth quarter of 2015,2018, the Company executed a common stock offering and balance sheet restructuring that greatly reduced borrowings andacquired the weighted average costBates Companies, headquartered in Rockford, Illinois.  In the third quarter of borrowings2018, the Company mergered with Springfield Bancshares, headquartered in order to improve the long-term profitabilitySpringfield, Missouri. See Note 2 of the Company. Refer to Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. detail concerning the acquisition and merger.

The Company continuedcontinues to execute restructuring activities in the fourth quarter of 2015 (described in Notes 9 and 10 of the Consolidated Financial Statements) and the first quarter of 2016 (described in Note 25 of the Consolidated Financial Statements).


The Company was heavily focusedfocus on reducing the NPAs to total assets ratio to below 1.00% and was successful in achieving this benchmark during the third quarter, with an actualratio.  The ratio of 0.80% as of September 30. 2015. The Company continuedNPAs to see improvement in this ratio in the fourth quarter, with an actual ratio of 0.74% as oftotal assets decreased from 0.81% at December 31, 2015.

The Company remains committed to further improving asset quality in 2016.2019.

 

·

Management continues to focus on reducing the Company’s reliance on wholesale funding. The balance sheet restructuring that was executed in the second quarter lowered the Company’s reliance significantly. Continued restructuring in the fourth quarter of 2015 helped further reduce the Company’s reliance on wholesale funding to 20% (down from 30% at December 31, 2014). The restructuring executed in the 1st quarter of 2016 (as described in Note 25 of the Consolidated Financial Statements) has further reduced the Company’s reliance on wholesale funding. Managementand continues to closely evaluate opportunities for further reductionprioritize core deposit growth through a variety of strategies including growth in wholesale funding.correspondent banking.

 

·

Correspondent banking continues to be a core line of business for the Company. The Company is competitively positioned with experienced staff, software systems and processes to continue growing in the three states currently served – Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin.Wisconsin - and to expand into Missouri.  The Company acts as the correspondent bank for 172190 downstream banks with total average noninterest bearing deposits of $286.9$183.5 million and total average interest bearing deposits of $233.9 million as of December 31, 2015. Average noninterest bearing deposit balances for 2015 totaled $343.1 million.2018. This line of business provides a

strong source of noninterest bearing and interest bearing deposits, fee income, and high-quality loan participations.participations and bank stock loans.

 

The Company provides commercial leasing services through its wholly-owned subsidiary, m2 Lease Funds, which has lease specialists in Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Pennsylvania. Historically, this portfolio has been high yielding, with an average gross yield in 2015 approximating 8.2%. This portfolio has also shown strong asset quality throughout its history and the Company intends to grow this portfolio to 10% of consolidated assets.

·

SBA and USDA lending is a specialty lending area on which the Company has focused. Once these loans are originated, the government-guaranteed portion of the loan can be sold to the secondary market for premiums. The Company intends to make this a more significant and consistent source of noninterest income. In 2014, the Company hired a government-guaranteed lending specialist in the QCBT market. Also in 2014, in the CRBT market, the Company added a USDA relationship manager to CRBT’s specialty lending team.

As a result of the historicallyrelatively low interest rate environment including a flat yield curve, the Company is focused on executing interest rate swaps on select commercial loans. The interest rate swaps allow the commercial borrowers to pay a fixed interest rate while the Company receives a variable interest rate as well as an upfront fee dependent on the pricing. Management believes that these swaps help position the Company more favorably for rising rate environments. The Company will continue to review opportunities to execute these swaps at all of its subsidiary banks, as the circumstances are appropriate for the borrower and the Company.

 

·

Wealth management is another core line of business for the Company and includes a full range of products, including trust services, brokerage and investment advisory services, asset management, estate planning and financial planning. As of December 31, 20152018, the Company had $1.73$2.8 billion of total financial assets in trust (and related)and related accounts and $628 million$1.6 billion of total financial assets in brokerage (and related)and related accounts. Continued growth in assets under management will help to drive trust and investment advisory fees, with a goal of growing this segment’s net income by 15% annually.fees. The Company hired four business development officers in 2014 to help with this strategy. Additionally, the Company has started offeringoffers trust and investment advisory services to the correspondent banks that it serves. As management focuses on growing fee income, expanding market share will continue to be a primary strategy.strategy both through organic growth as well as the acquisition of managed assets.  On October 1, 2018, the Company acquired the Bates Companies, headquartered in Rockford, Illinois. The acquisition enhanced the wealth management services of the Company by adding approximately $704 million of assets under management as of October 1, 2018.

NIM (TEY) is a financial measure that the Company’s management utilizes to take into account the tax benefit associated with certain loans and securities. It is standard industry practice to measure net interest margin using tax-equivalent measures.  In addition, the Company calculates NIM without the impact of acquisition accounting net accretion (adjusted NIM), as accretion amounts can fluctuate a great deal, making comparisons difficult.

The efficiency ratio is a ratio that management utilizes to compare the Company to peers. It is standard in the banking industry and widely utilized by investors.

Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors to evaluate a company, they have

NET INTEREST INCOME AND MARGIN (TAX EQUIVALENT BASIS) (Non-GAAP)

As part of the Tax Act, the Company's federal income tax rate was reduced from 35% down to 21% effective January 1, 2018. In order to compare periods before and after the effective date of the Tax Act, it's important to note the difference in the federal income tax rate and the impact on the Company's tax exempt earning assets (loans and securities) and the related tax equivalent yield reporting.

Net interest income, on a tax equivalent basis, grew $8.1increased 19% to $149.0 million or 11%, in 2015for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 2014.the prior year. Excluding the tax equivalent adjustments, net interest income increased 23% for the year ended December 31, 2018 compared to the prior year. Net interest income improved due to several factors:

·

The Company’smerger with Springfield Bancshares in the third quarter of 2018 and the acquisition of Guaranty Bank in the fourth quarter of 2017;

·

Organic loan growth has been strong over the past 12 months pushing loans/leases up to 75.4% of total assets; and

·

The Company's continued strategy to redeploy funds from thecash and lower yielding taxable securities portfolio into higher yielding loans and leases;municipal bonds, especially with the Company's most recent acquisitions of SFC Bank and Guaranty Bank.

Organic loan and lease growth has been strong throughout the year. Average gross loans/leases grew 10.9% in 2015; and

The Company’s balance sheet restructuring and deleveraging strategy that was executed in the second quarter of 2015. Refer to Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details. Continued balance sheet restructurings occurred in late 2015 and early 2016, as described in Notes 9, 10 and 25 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

A comparison of yields, spreadsspread and margins from 2015 to 2014 shows the following (on a tax equivalent basis):

The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 6 basis points from 3.88% to 3.94%.

The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 18 basis points from .99% to .81%.

The net interest spread improved 24 basis points from 2.89% to 3.13%.

The NIM improved 22 basis points from 3.15% to 3.37%.

Net interest income,margin on a tax equivalent and GAAP basis grew $6.3 million, or 10%, in 2014 compared to 2013. The increase inis as follows:

Acquisition accounting net accretion can fluctuate mostly depending on the payoff activity of the acquired loans. In evaluating net interest income was partly driven byand NIM, it's important to understand the additionimpact of CNBacquisition accounting net accretion when comparing periods. The above table reports NIM with and without the acquisition accounting net accretion to allow for the first full year. Additionally, the Company’s legacy charters experienced strong organic loan growth and improvements in investment securities yield during 2014.more appropriate comparisons.  A comparison of yields, spreads and margins from 2014acquisition accounting net accretion included in NIM is as follows:

The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 4 basis points from 3.84%·

Increases in the cost of funds due to 3.88%.both mix and rate as the Company continues to grow larger commercial and public deposit relationships which tend to have higher interest rate sensitivity;

·

With the flat yield curve and continued competition in our markets, loan pricing continues to be pressured.  The averageCompany has had success in widening spreads as core loan yields increased over the year; however, the pace and magnitude of the widening has been offset by the increasing cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 10 basis points from 1.09% to .99%.funds; and

The Company’sCompany's management closely monitors and manages NIM. From a profitability standpoint, an important challenge for the Company’sCompany's subsidiary banks and leasing company is focusing on quality growth in conjunction with  the improvement of their net interest margins.NIMs. Management continually addresses this issue with pricing and other balance sheet management strategies.

During 2014strategies which included better loan pricing, reducing reliance on very rate-sensitive funding, closely managing deposit rate increases and 2015, the Company placed an emphasis on shifting its balance sheet mix. With a stated goalfinding additional ways to manage cost of increasing loans/leases as a percentage of assets to at least 70%, the Company funded its loan/lease growth with a mixture of core deposits and cash from the investment securities portfolio, including the targeted sales of securities with the cash redeployed into the loan portfolio, with an attempt to minimize any extension of duration and a significant increase in yield. Additionally, the Company has recognized net gains on these sales due to the current rate environment. As rates rise, the Company should also have less market volatility in the investment securities portfolio, as this becomes a smaller portion of the balance sheet.

The Company continues to monitor and evaluate both prepayment and debt restructuring opportunities within the wholesale funding portion of the balance sheet, as executing on such a strategy could potentially increase NIM at a much quicker pace than holding the debt until maturity.

The Company records all assets and liabilities purchased in an acquisition, including intangibles, at fair value. Goodwill is not amortized but is subject, at a minimum, to annual tests for impairment. In certain situations, interim impairment tests may be required if events occur or circumstances change that relatedwould more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.

The initial recognition of goodwill and subsequent impairment analysis requires us to make subjective judgments concerning estimates of how the allowance.acquired assets will perform in the future using valuation methods, which may include using the current market price of stock or discounted cash flow analyses. Additionally, estimated cash flows may extend

36


beyond five years and, by their nature, are difficult to determine over an extended timeframe. Events and factors that may significantly affect the estimates include, among others, competitive forces, customer behaviors, changes in revenue growth trends, cost structures, technology, changes in discount rates and market conditions. In determining the reasonableness of cash flow estimates, the Company reviews historical performance of the underlying assets or similar assets in an effort to assess and validate assumptions utilized in its estimates.

In assessing the fair value of reporting units, we may consider the stage of the current business cycle and potential changes in market conditions. We may also utilize other information to validate the reasonableness of our valuations, including public market comparables and multiples of recent mergers and acquisitions of similar businesses. Valuation multiples may be based on tangible capital ratios of comparable companies and business segments. These multiples may be adjusted to consider competitive differences, including size, operating leverage and other factors. The carrying amount of a reporting unit is determined based on the capital required to support the reporting unit’s activities, including its tangible and intangible assets. The determination of a reporting unit’s capital allocation requires judgment and considers many factors, including the regulatory capital regulations and capital characteristics of comparable companies in relevant industry sectors. In certain circumstances, the Company will engage a third-party to independently validate our assessment of the fair value of our reporting units.

The Company assesses the impairment of goodwill whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors considered important, which could trigger an impairment review, include the following:

·

Significant under-performance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results;

·

Significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired asets or the strategy for the overall business;

·

Significant negative industry or economic trends; or

·

Significant decline in the market price for our common stock over a sustained period; and market capitalization relative to net book value.

The Company conducted an internal assessment of the goodwill, both collectively and at its subsidiaries, in both 2018 and 2017 and determined no goodwill impairment charges were required.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES

 

The Company’s allowance methodology incorporates a variety of risk considerations, both quantitative and qualitative, in establishing an allowance that management believes is appropriate at each reporting date. Quantitative factors include the Company’s historical loss experience, delinquency and charge-off trends, collateral values, governmental guarantees, payment status, changes in nonperforming loans/leases, and other factors. Quantitative factors also incorporate known information about individual loans/leases, including borrowers’ sensitivity to interest rate movements.

Qualitative factors include the general economic environment in the Company’s markets, including economic conditions throughout the Midwest,both locally and nationally, and in particular, the economic health of certain industries. Size and complexity of individual credits in relation to loan/lease structure, existing loan/lease policies and pace of portfolio growth are other qualitative factors that are considered in the methodology. As the Company adds new products and increases the complexity of its loan/lease portfolio, it enhances its methodology accordingly.

Management may report a materially different amount for the provision in the statement of operations to change the allowance if its assessment of the above factors were different. The discussion regarding the Company’s allowance should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and the accompanying notes presented elsewhere in this Form 10-K,10‑K, as well as the portion of this MD&A section entitled “Financial Condition – Allowance for Estimated Losses on Loans/Leases.”

Although management believes the level of the allowance as of December 31, 20152018 was adequate to absorb losses inherent in the loan/lease portfolio, a decline in local economic conditions, or other factors, could result in increasing losses that cannot be reasonably predicted at this time.

37


OTHER-THAN-TEMPORARY IMPAIRMENT

The Company’s assessment of OTTI of its securities portfolio is another critical accounting policy as a result of the level of judgment required by management. Available-for-sale and held to maturity securities are evaluated to determine whether declines in fair value below their cost are other-than-temporary.

In estimating OTTI losses, management considers a number of factors including, but not limited to: (1) the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost; (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer; (3) the current market conditions; and (4) the intent of the Company to not sell the security prior to recovery and whether it is not more-likely-than-not that the Company will be required to sell the security prior to recovery. The discussion regarding the Company’s assessment of OTTI should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and the accompanying notes presented elsewhere in this Form 10-K.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2015, 2014,2018, 2017, and 20132016

INTEREST INCOME

For 2015,2018, interest income grew $4.0$47.4 million, or 5%35%. In total, the Company’s average interest-earning assets increased $86.8$805.3 million, or 4%24%, year-over-year. This growth more than offset the continued impact of declining average yields on loans/leases. Average loans/leases grew 11%28%, while average securities declined 13%grew 12%. This shiftThe acquisition of Guaranty Bank occurred in the fourth quarter of 2017, therefore 2018 was part ofthe first full year that Guaranty Bank was included in the Company’s strategyfinancial results. The merger with Springfield Bancshares in the third quarter of 2018 also contributed to shift the mixincrease in interest income and average interest-earning assets.

For 2017, interest income grew $29.0 million, or 27%. In total, the Company’s average interest-earning assets increased $636.5 million, or 24%, year-over-year. Average loans/leases grew 28%, while average securities grew 10%. The acquisition of earning assets from lower yielding securitiesCSB occurred in the third quarter of 2016, therefore 2017 was the first full year that CSB was included in the Company’s financial results. The acquisition of Guaranty Bank in the fourth quarter of 2017 also contributed to higher yielding loans/leases.

the increase in interest income and average interest-earning assets.

Additionally, the Company continued to diversify its securities portfolio, including increasing its portfolio of tax exempt municipal securities. The large majority of these are privately placed debt issuances by municipalities located in the Midwest and require a thorough underwriting process before investment. Execution of this strategy has led to increased interest income on a tax equivalent basis over the past several years. Management understands that this strategy has extended the duration of its securities portfolio and continually evaluates the combined benefit of increased interest income and reduced effective income tax rate and the impact on interest rate risk.

For 2014, interest income grew $4.1 million, or 5%. In total, the Company’s average interest-earning assets increased $119.2 million, or 5%, year-over-year. This growth more than offset the continued impact of declining average yields on loans/leases. Average loans/leases grew 8%, while average securities declined 2%. This shift was part of the Company’s strategy to shift the mix of earning assets from lower yielding securities to higher yielding loans/leases.

In 2014, the Company diversified its securities portfolio by increasing its portfolio of tax-exempt municipal securities, as described above.

The Company intends to continue to grow quality loans and leases as well as diversify the securities portfolio to maximize yield while minimizing credit and interest rate risk.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Comparing 20152018 to 2014,2017, interest expense declined $3.2increased $21.0 million, or 19%108%, year-over-year. Average interest-bearing liabilities declined 1%increased 31% in 2015.2018. The acquisition of Guaranty Bank occurred in the fourth quarter of 2017, therefore 2018 was the first full year that Guaranty Bank was included in the Company’s financial results. SFC Bank, acquired at the beginning of the third quarter of 2018, also contributed to the increase in interest expense and average interest-bearing liabilities. Additionally, as the Company was successfulhas grown organically at a significant pace over the past several years, the loan growth has been funded in continuinglarger part by bigger depositor relationships with higher rate sensitivity, many of which have pricing tied to manage down itsa certain index.  As a result, the cost of these funds is higher than the rest of the Company’s core deposit portfolio, and the cost rises at a higher rate (beta) as follows:

Continued reduction of interest rates paid across all deposits without runoff (the average cost of interest-bearing deposits fell from 0.40% for 2014 to 0.37% for 2015);

Continued growth in noninterest bearing deposit accounts (average noninterest bearing balances grew 12% in 2015, primarily due to successful growth in the correspondent banking area); and

Continued shift of funding from high-cost borrowings to deposits and/or low-cost borrowings. Average interest bearing deposits increased 7%, while average borrowings decreased 17% during 2015.

market interest rates rise (which has been the case over the past year).  The beta on the balance of the Company’s core deposit portfolio has performed well and is much lower than the beta on  relationships with pricing tied to a certain index.  Additionally, loan growth has outpaced deposit growth, therefore, short-term borrowings have increased to temporarily fill in the funding gap and the cost of these funds has increased with the rising rate environment. 

Comparing 20142017 to 2013,2016, interest expense declined $872 thousand,increased $7.5 million, or 5%63%, year-over-year. Average interest-bearing liabilities grew 4%increased 32% in 2014 with most2017. The acquisition of thisCSB occurred in deposits.the third quarter of 2016, therefore 2017 was the first full year that CSB was included in the Company’s financial results. Guaranty Bank, acquired in the fourth quarter of 2017, also contributed to the increase in interest expense and average interest-bearing liabilities. The Company was successful in continuing to manage down itsCompany’s cost of funds as follows:

Continued reduction of interest rates paid across all deposits without runoff (the average cost of interest-bearing deposits fell from 0.44% for 2013 to 0.40% for 2014);

Continued growth in noninterest bearing deposit accounts (average noninterest bearing balances grew 11% in 2014, primarily due to successful growth in the correspondent banking area); and

Continued shift of funding from high-cost borrowings to deposits and/or low-cost borrowings.

increased because the Company has rate sensitive deposits that have repriced with the increase in certain market rates.

The Company’s management intends to continue to shift the mix of funding from wholesale funds to core deposits, including noninterest-bearing deposits. Continuing this trend is expected to strengthen the Company’s franchise value, reduce funding costs, and increase fee income opportunities through deposit service charges.


PROVISION FOR LOAN/LEASE LOSSES

The provision is established based on a number of factors, including the Company’s historical loss experience, delinquencies and charge-off trends, the local and national economy and the risk associated with the loans/leases in the portfolio as described in more detail in the “Critical Accounting Policies” section.

38


The Company’s provision totaled $6.9$12.7 million for 2015, which was flat2018, an increase of $4.2 million from 2014. Despite2017. Notably, RB&T’s provision expense increased $3.9 million when comparing 2018 to the drop in NPAs during theprior year, (decreasing from 1.31% of total assetsprimarily attributable to 0.74%),loans to two unrelated borrowers.  Additionally, the Company had strong loan growthgrowth.  SFC Bank incurred $990 thousand of provision expense in 2018. As acquired loans renew, the discount associated with those loans is eliminated and the Company must establish a loan loss reserve. When comparing 2017 to provide for, as well as several specific reserves for certain existing NPLs as the workouts of these loans and leases progressed.

Comparing 2014 to 2013,2016, the Company’s provision increased $877 thousand, or 15%, from $5.9by $992 thousand. In 2017, CSB incurred $2.8 million of provision expense for 2013 to $6.8 million for 2014.

the full year.

The Company had an allowance of 1.45%1.07% of total gross loans/leases at December 31, 2015,2018, compared to 1.42%1.16% of total gross loans/leases at December 31, 2014,2017, and compared to 1.47%1.28% of total gross loans/leases at December 31, 2013.

2016.  Management evaluates the allowance needed on the acquired loans factoring in the remaining discount, which was $11.6 million, $8.1 million and $10.1 million at December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

The Company’s allowance to total NPLs was 223%214.80% at December 31, 2015,2018, which was up from 115%184.28% at December 31, 2014,2017, and up from 105%144.85% at December 31, 2013.2016.


The fluctuations in these ratios were the result of recent acquisitions. In accordance with GAAP for acquisition accounting, acquired loans must be recorded at fair value; therefore, no allowance was associated with these loans. As acquired loans renew, the discount associated with those loans is eliminated and the Company must establish an allowance.

In recent years, the Company has been successful in expanding its wealth management customer base. Trust department fees continue to be a significant contributor to noninterest income. With strong growth in assets under management, trust department fees increased 21% in the current year.  Comparatively, trust fee income increasing 7% in 2015 and 16% in 2014.increased 17% when comparing 2017 to 2016. Income is generated primarily from fees charged based on assets under administration for corporate and personal trusts and for custodial services. The majority of the trust department fees are determined based on the value of the investments within the fully managed trusts. Part

Management has placed a stronger emphasis on growing its investment advisory and management services. Part of this initiative has been to restructure the Company’s Wealth Management Division to allow for more efficient delivery of products and services through selective additions of talent as well as leverage of and collaboration among existing resources (including the aforementioned trust department). Similar to trust department fees, fees from these feesservices are largely determined based on the value of the investments managed. And, similar to the trust department,On October 1, 2018 the Company has had some successacquired the Bates Companies, headquartered in expanding its customer base, which has helped driveRockford, Illinois.  The acquisition enhanced the recent increases in fee income.wealth management services of the Company by adding approximately $704 million of assets under management.  Investment advisory and management fees increased 6%22% in 20152018.

Deposit service fees declined slightlyexpanded 9% in each2018 and 33% in 2017. The increases in both years were the result of the last two years (less than 1%). The decrease in 2015 was primarily due to lower overdraft fees, whilerecent acquistions. Additionally, the decrease in 2014 was primarily due to a decrease in commercial analysis fees. The Company intends to grow this line item bycontinues its emphasis on shifting the mix of deposits from brokered and retail time deposits to non-maturity demand deposits asacross all its markets. With this continuing shift in mix, the latter tendsCompany has increased the number of demand deposit accounts, which tend to be lower in interest cost and higher in service fees.

The Company plans to continue this shift in mix and to further focus on growing deposit service fees.

Gains on sales of residential real estate loans, decreased 30%net,  increased 120% in 2015 and 45%2018, while decreasing 5% in 2014. With2017. The increase in 2018 was due to the sustained historically low interest rate environment,addition of SFC Bank which recognized $532 thousand of gains on sales of residential real estate, net since it was acquired via merger on July 1, 2018.  Overall, refinancing activity has slowed, as many of the Company’s existing and prospective customers have already executed a refinancing. Therefore, this area has become a much smaller contributor to overall noninterest income. 

GainsThe Company’s gains on the sale of government guaranteedgovernment-guaranteed portions of loans for 2018 decreased 36%65%, while decreasing 63% in 2015the prior year. Given the nature of these gains, large fluctuations can happen from quarter-to-quarter and 5% in 2014.year-to-year. As one of its core strategies, the Company continues to leverage its small business lending expertise by taking advantage of programs offered by the SBA and the USDA. The Company’s portfolio of government guaranteed loans has grown as a direct result of the Company’s strong expertise in SBA and USDA lending. In some cases, it is more beneficial for the Company to sell the government guaranteedgovernment-guaranteed portion on the secondary market for a premium rather than retain the loans in the Company’s portfolio. Sales activity for government guaranteedgovernment-guaranteed portions of loans tends to fluctuate depending on the demand for small business loans that fit the criteria for the government guarantee. Further, somethe size of the transactions can be largevary and, as the gain is determined as a percentage of the guaranteed amount, the resulting gain on sale can be large. Lastly, a strategy for improved pricing is packaging loans together for sale. From time to time,vary.  Recently, competitors have been offering SBA loan candidates traditional financing without the guarantee and the Company may execute on this strategy, which may delay the gains on sales of some loansis not willing to achieve better pricing. The Company is adding additional talent and executing on strategies in an effort to make this a more consistent and larger source of revenue.

relax its structure for those lending opportunities.

As a result of the sustained historically low interest rate environment, the Company was able to execute severalnumerous interest rate swaps on select commercial loans, including tax credit project loans. The interest rate swaps allow the commercial borrowers to pay a fixed interest rate while the Company receives a variable interest rate as well as an upfront fee dependent upon the pricing. Management believes that these swaps help position the Company more favorably for rising rate environments. Management will continue to review opportunities to execute these swaps at all of its subsidiary banks, as the circumstances are appropriate for the borrower and the Company. An optimal interest rate swap candidate must be of a certain size and sophistication which can lead to volatility in activity from year to year. Swap fee income totaled $10.8 million in 2018, compared to $3.1 million in 2017 and $1.7 million in 2015, as compared to $155 thousand in 2014 and $105 thousand in 2013.2016. Future levels of swap fee income are very dependent upon marketprevailing interest rates.

In accordance with acquisition accounting rules, the Company recognized a bargain purchase gain of $1.8 million in 2013 in recording the acquisition of Community National. The Company adjusted the acquired assets and assumed liabilities to fair value as determined by an independent valuation specialist. The gain resulted primarily from the recording of a core deposit intangible based on the value of the acquired deposit portfolio, and the recognition of a discount on the trust preferred securities that were previously issued by Community National and were assumed by the Company in the transaction. Net of other more modest valuation adjustments, and the resulting deferred income tax liabilities, the $1.8 million bargain purchase gain was included in noninterest income.

Since this cash outflow is typically temporary, the Company normally fills the funding gap with overnight or other short-term borrowings.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The composition of the Company’s securities portfolio is managed to meet liquidity needs while prioritizing the impact on interest rate risk and maximizing return, while minimizing credit risk. The Company has further diversified the portfolio by decreasing U.S government sponsored agency securities, andwhile increasing residential mortgage-backed and related securities while increasingand tax-exempt municipal securities. Of the latter, the large majority are privately placed tax-exempt debt issuances by municipalities located in the Midwest (with some in or near the Company’s existing markets) and require a thorough underwriting process before investment. Additionally, management will continue to diversify the portfolio with further growth strictly dictated by the pace of growth in deposits and loans. Management expects to continue to fund future loan growth partially with cashflow from the securities portfolio (calls and maturities of government sponsored agencies, paydowns on residential mortgage-backed securities, and/or targeted sales of securities that meet certain criteria as defined by management).

Following is a breakdown of the Company’s securities portfolio by type, the percentage of net unrealized losses to carrying value on the total portfolio, and the portfolio duration as of December 31, 2015, 2014,2018, 2017, and 2013.2016.

As a result of fluctuations in longer-term interest rates, the Company’s fair value of its securities portfolio moved from a net unrealized loss position (approximately 4.02% of amortized cost at the end of 2013) to more modest net unrealized loss positions (approximately 0.19% at the end of 2014 and 0.03% at the end of 2015). Management monitors the level of unrealized gains/losses including performing quarterly reviews of individual securities for evidence of OTTI. Management identified no OTTI in 2015, 20142018, 2017 or 2013.

2016.

In 2015,2017, the duration of the securities portfolio increased due, in large part, to the continued shift in mix. Duration was extended from the strong growth in longer term fixed rate municipal securities, but was partially offset by the duration shortening of agency and mortgage-backed securities portfolios resulting from targeted sales of longer duration investments and as the remaining agency portfolio rolled closer to maturities or call dates.


In 2014, the duration of the securities portfolio decreased slightly for two reasons:

A portion of the government-sponsored agency securities contain call options at the discretion of the issuer whereby the issuer can call the security at par at certain times which vary by individual security.  With a steady decline in longer-term market interest rates in 2014, the duration of these callable agency securities shortened as the likelihood of a call increased. 

The Company’s sales strategy in 2014 targeted the liquidation of longer duration government-sponsored agency securities and government-sponsored mortgage-backed securities.

The Company has not invested in non-agency commercial or residential mortgage-backed securities or pooled trust preferred securities. Additionally, the Company has not invested in the types of securities subject to the Volcker Rule (a provision of the Dodd-Frank Act).

Historically, the Company structures most residential real estate loans to conform to the underwriting requirements of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae to allow the subsidiary banks to resell the loans on the secondary market to avoid the interest rate risk associated with longer term fixed rate loans and recognizing noninterest income from the gain on sale. Loans originated for this purpose were classified as held for sale and are included in the residential real estate loans in the table above. Historically, the subsidiary banks structure most loans that will not conform to those underwriting requirements as

adjustable rate mortgages that mature or adjust in one to five years, and then retain these loans in their portfolios. The Company holds a limited amount of 15-year15‑year fixed rate residential real estate loans originated in prior years that met certain credit guidelines. The remaining residential real estate loans originated by the Company continue to be sold on the secondary market to avoid the interest rate risk associated with longer term fixed rate loans. In addition, the Company has not originated any subprime, Alt-A, no documentation, or stated income residential real estate loans throughout its history.

As CRE loans have historically been the Company’s largest portfolio segment, management places a strong emphasis on monitoring the composition of the Company’s CRE loan portfolio. For example, management tracks the level of owner-occupied CRE loans relative to non owner-occupied loans. Owner-occupied loans are generally considered to have less risk. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, approximately 28% and 26% of the CRE loan portfolio was owner-occupied. The increase in this percentage in 2018 was mostly due to the addition of SFC Bank, which had a slightly higher owner-occupied percentage as compared to the legacy charters. SFC Bank’s percentage of owner-occupied loans was 30% of their CRE portfolio.

Over the past twoseveral years, the Company has seen modest changesbeen successful in shifting the mix of its commercial loan portfolio by adding more C&I loans. C&I loans grew $294.9 million, or 26% over the past twelve months. A portion of this growth was attributable to the durationmerger with Springfield Bancshares and the acquisition of its overall loan/lease portfolio. With the growthGuaranty Bank, which had $95.8 million and $44.7 million of C&I loans at acquisition, respectively.

A syndicated loan is a commercial loan provided by a group of lenders and is structured, arranged and administered by one or several commercial or investment banks known as arrangers. The nationally syndicated loans invested in municipal securities and residential real estate loans, both of which are longer duration assets with fixed interest rates, it is important thatby the Company limits extensionconsist of the restfully funded, highly liquid term loans for which there is a liquid secondary market. The amount of the loan portfolionationally syndicated loans totaled $40.8 million and $51.2 million as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The Company also has several loans that are syndicated to borrowers in an effort to limit exposure to rising rate scenarios. The strategy,our existing markets or purchased from peer banks that we have a relationship with. These loans were immaterial as discussed in the “Noninterest Income” section, of the execution of interest rate swaps on commercial loans, helps offset the growth of longer term fixed rate assetsDecember 31, 2018 and maintain a favorable interest rate risk profile.

Management continues to focus on growing quality loans/leases and carefully monitors maturities and interest rate sensitivity of the current portfolio.

ALLOWANCE FOR ESTIMATED LOSSES ON LOANS/LEASESLEASES

The allowance totaled $26.1$39.8 million at December 31, 2015,2018, which was an increase of $3.1$5.5 million, or 13%16%, from $23.1$34.4 million at December 31, 2014.2017. Provision totaled $6.9$12.7 million for 20152018 and outpaced net charge-offs of $3.8$7.2 million (or 2221 basis points of average loans/leases outstanding).

The allowance totaled $23.1$34.4 million at December 31, 2014,2017, which was an increase of $1.6$3.6 million, or 8%12%, from $21.4$30.8 million at December 31, 2013.2016. Provision totaled $6.8$8.5 million for 20142017 and outpaced net charge-offs of $5.2$4.9 million (or 3419 basis points of average loans/leases outstanding).

The increase in allowance in both 20152018 and 20142017 was primarily due to a combination of general allocations related to loan growth, as well as changes in qualitative and quantitative factors.


Additionally, a portion of the increase in both years was due to the recent acquisitions. Although purchase accounting eliminates the allowance at acquisition, as acquired loans refinance and new loans are originated, an allowance must be established.

The following table summarizes the activity in the allowance.

The adequacy of the allowance was determined by management based on factors that included the overall composition of the loan/lease portfolio, types of loans/leases, historical loss experience, loan/lease delinquencies, potential substandard and doubtful credits, economic conditions, collateral positions, government guarantees and other factors that, in management'smanagement’s judgment, deserved evaluation. To ensure that an adequate allowance was maintained, provisions were made based on the increase/decrease in loans/leases and a detailed analysis of the loan/lease portfolio. The loan/lease portfolio was reviewed and analyzed quarterly with specific detailed reviews completed on all credits risk-rated less than “fair quality” and carrying aggregate exposure in excess of $250 thousand. The adequacy of the allowance was monitored by the credit administration staff and reported to management and the board of directors.

Although management believes that the allowance at December 31, 2015 was2018 is at a level adequate to absorb probable losses on existing loans/leases, there can be no assurance that such losses will not exceed the estimated amounts or that the Company will not be required to make additional provisions for loan/lease losses in the future. Unpredictable future events could adversely affect cash flows for both commercial and individual borrowers, which could cause the Company to experience increases in problem assets, delinquencies and losses on loans/leases, and require additional increases in the provision. Asset quality is a priority for the Company and its subsidiaries. The ability to grow profitably is in part dependent upon the ability to maintain that quality. The Company continually focuses efforts at its subsidiary banks and its leasing company with the intention to improve the overall quality of the Company’s loan/lease portfolio.

See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Company’s allowance.

Texas Ratio = NPAs (excluding Other Repossessed Assets) / Tangible Equity plus Allowance. Texas Ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management included the ratio as it is considered by many investors and analysts to be a metric with which to analyze and evaluate asset quality. Other companies may calculate this ratio differently.

Includes TDRs of $496 thousand at December 31, 2018.

The large majority of the Company’s NPAs consists of nonaccrual loans/leases, accruing TDRs and OREO. For nonaccrual loans/leases, management thoroughly reviewed these loans/leases and provided specific allowances as appropriate. OREO is carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

The policy of the Company is to place a loan/lease on nonaccrual status if:  (a) payment in full of interest or principal is not expected; or (b) principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more unless the obligation is both in the process of collection and well secured.  A loan/lease is well secured if it is secured by collateral with sufficient market value to repay principal and all accrued interest. A debt is in the process of collection if collection of the debt is proceeding in due course either through legal action, including judgment enforcement procedures, or in appropriate circumstances, through collection efforts not involving legal action which are reasonably expected to result in repayment of the debt or in its restoration to current status.

In 2015,2018, the Company’s NPAs decreased $13.9$4.3 million, or 42%13%. Nonaccrual loans decreased $7.9 million as a result of improving performance and paydowns. OREO decreased $5.6$4.2 million primarily due to the $2.0 million writedown of one large OREO property and the sale of twoa $1.3 million OREO property (including a loss on sale of $424 thousand).  In the fourth quarter of 2018, there was a $3.5 million paydown on a large properties during the year, one of which was sold at a gain of $1.2 million.

nonaccrual loan.

In 2014,2017, the Company’s nonperforming assetsNPAs increased $2.5$5.3 million, or 8%, as20%. OREO increased $3.0 million. The growth in OREO was$8.0 million primarily due to the resultaddition of foreclosure on the collateral securing one large nonperforming relationship that was shared between each of the three charters. Management continues to proactively manage its OREO portfolio in an effort to sell timely and prudently. Accruing troubled debt restructurings fell $1.1 million, as the result of improved performance.

The Company’s lending/leasing practices remain unchanged and asset quality remains a top priority for management.

The Company has been successful in growing its noninterest-bearing deposit portfolio over the past several years, growing average balances 12%4% in 20152018 and 11%7% in 2014.2017. Year-end balances can fluctuate a great deal due to large customer and correspondent bank activity. Trends have shown that this fluctuation is generally temporary.

Management will continue to focus on growing its noninterest bearingcore deposit portfolio, including its correspondent banking business at QCBT, as well as shifting the mix from brokered and other higher cost deposits to lower cost core deposits. With the significant success achieved by QCBT in growing its correspondent banking business, QCBT has developed procedures to proactively monitor this industry concentration of deposits and loans. Other deposit-related industry concentrations and large accounts are monitored by the internal asset liability management committee.

In 2015,2016, the Company shifted some overnight customer repurchase agreement funds to insured deposit products which do not require collateral, helping to free up additional liquidity for the Company. This also allowsallowed the Company to further execute on the strategy of rotating out of investment securities into loans and leases.

Regarding the Company’s federal funds purchased, this fluctuates based on the short-term funding needs of the Company’s subsidiary banks. See Note 89 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Company’s short-term borrowings.


FHLB ADVANCESADVANCES AND OTHER BORROWINGS

As a result of their memberships in the FHLB of Des Moines and Chicago, the subsidiary banks have the ability to borrow funds for short-term or long-term purposes under a variety of programs. The subsidiary banks can utilize FHLB advances for loan matching as a hedge against the possibility of rising interest rates or when these advances provide a less costly source of funds than customer deposits. For 2015,2018, FHLB advances decreased $52.5increased $74.5 million, or 26%39%, as several prepayments of advances were included in balance sheet restructurings throughoutdue to the year.merger with Springfield Bancshares and strong loan and lease growth, which outpaced the Company’s deposit growth.  See Notes 9 and 12Note 10 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details.

borrowings.

It is management’s intention to continue to reduce its reliance on wholesale funding, including FHLB advances, wholesale structured repurchase agreements, and brokered time deposits. Replacement of this funding with core deposits helps to reduce interest expense as the wholesale funding tends to be higher cost. However, the Company may choose to utilize wholesale funding sources to supplement funding needs, as this is a way for the Company to effectively and efficiently manage interest rate risk.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity measures the ability of the Company to meet maturing obligations and its existing commitments, to withstand fluctuations in deposit levels, to fund its operations, and to provide for customers’ credit needs. The Company monitors liquidity risk through contingency planning stress testing on a regular basis. The Company seeks to avoid over concentration of funding sources and to establish and maintain contingent funding facilities that can be drawn upon if normal funding sources become unavailable. One source of liquidity is cash and short-term assets, such as interest-bearing deposits in other banks and federal funds sold, which averaged $129.5$159.7 million during 2015, $118.82018, $164.0 million during 20142017 and $102.8$139.5 million during 2013.2016. The Company’s on balance sheet liquidity position can fluctuate based on short-term activity in deposits and loans.

The subsidiary banks have a variety of sources of short-term liquidity available to them, including federal funds purchased from correspondent banks, FHLB advances, structured repos, brokered time deposits, lines of credit, borrowing at the Federal Reserve Discount Window, sales of securities available for sale, and loan/lease participations or sales. The Company also generates liquidity from the regular principal payments and prepayments made on its loan/lease portfolio, and on the regular monthlyprincipal payments on its residential mortgage-backed securities portfolio.

At December 31, 2015,2018, the subsidiary banks had 3233 lines of credit totaling $346.6$363.7 million, of which $14.6$1.7 million was secured and $332.0$362.0 million was unsecured.

Throughout its history, the Company has secured additional capital through various resources, including the issuance of trustcommon and preferred securities. See Notes 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for information onstock and the issuance of trust preferred securities.

 

On August 27, 2015, the Company filed a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC, as amended on September 24, 2015. This registration statement, declared effective by the SEC on October 5, 2015, will allow the Company to issue various types of securities, including common stock, preferred stock, debt securities or warrants, from time to time, up to an aggregate amount of $100.0 million. The specific terms and prices of the securities will be determined at the time of any future offering and described in a separate prospectus supplement, which would be filed with the SEC at the time of the particular offering, if any.

As of December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, the subsidiary banks remained “well-capitalized” in accordance with regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking authorities. See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for detail of the capital amounts and ratios for the Company and subsidiary banks.

The Company filed a universal shelf registration statement on Form S‑3 with the SEC on October 27, 2016, as amended on January 11, 2017. Declared effective by the SEC on January 31, 2017, the registration statement allows the Company to offer and sell various types of securities, including common stock, preferred stock, debt securities and/or warrants, from time to time up to an aggregate amount of $100 million. The specific terms and prices of any securities offered pursuant to the registration statement will be determined at the time of any future offering and described in a separate prospectus supplement, which would be filed with the SEC at the time of the particular offering, if any. There were no securities issued under this shelf registration statement during 2017 or 2018. In February 2019, the Company utilized a portion of the $100.0 million by completing an underwritten public offering of $65.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 5.375% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes.  Net proceeds, after deducting the underwriting discount and expenses, were approximately $63.5 million. Refer to Note 23 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

The subordinated notes qualify for regulatory capital treatment, therefore Tier 2 Capital will increase by the net proceeds amount of $63.5 million.  The following table compares actual regulatory capital ratios to pro forma capital ratios, reflecting the issuance of the subordinated notes:

COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES, CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS, AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

In the normal course of business, the subsidiary banks make various commitments and incur certain contingent liabilities that are not presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.Consolidated Financial Statements. The commitments and contingent liabilities include various guarantees, commitments to extend credit, and standby letters of credit.

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 of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The subsidiary banks evaluate each customer'scustomer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the banks upon extension of credit, is based upon management'smanagement’s credit evaluation of the counter-party. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, marketable securities, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the subsidiary banks to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements and, generally, have terms of one year, or less. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The banks hold collateral, as described above, supporting those commitments if deemed necessary. In the event the customer does not perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third party, the banks would be required to fund the commitments. The maximum potential amount of future payments the banks could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount. If the commitment is funded, the banks would be entitled to seek recovery from the customer. At December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, no amounts had been recorded as liabilities for the banks'banks’ potential obligations under these guarantees.


As of December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, commitments to extend credit aggregated $480.5 million$1.17 billion and $499.3$791.6 million, respectively. As of December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, standby letters of credit aggregated $13.1$20.3 million and $12.9$17.3 million, respectively. Management does not expect that all of these commitments will be funded.

Additional information regarding commitments, contingencies, and off-balance sheet arrangements is described in Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company has various financial obligations, including contractual obligations and commitments, which may require future cash payments. The following table presents, as of December 31, 2015,2018, significant fixed and determinable contractual obligations to third parties by payment date. Further discussion of the nature of each obligation is included in the referenced note to the consolidated financial statements.Consolidated Financial Statements.

IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES

The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and the accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollar amounts without considering the changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of the Company’s operations. Unlike industrial companies, nearly all of the assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on the Company’s performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the price of goods and services.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This document (including information incorporated by reference) contains, and future oral and written statements of the Company and its management may contain, forward-looking statements, within the meaning of such term in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, with respect to the financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business of the Company. Forward-looking statements, which may be based upon beliefs, expectations and assumptions of the Company’s management and on information currently available to management, are generally identifiable by the use of words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “bode,” “predict,” “suggest,”  “project,” “appear,” “plan,” “intend,” “estimate,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “likely,” or other similar expressions. Additionally, all statements in this document, including forward-looking statements, speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any statement in light of new information or future events.


The Company’s ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. The factors that could have a material adverse effect on the operations and future prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries are detailed in the “Risk Factors” section included under Item 1A. of Part I of this Form 10-K.10‑K. In addition to the risk factors described in that section, there are other factors that may impact any public company, including ours, which could have a material adverse effect on the operations and future prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries. These additional factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

·

The strength of the local, state, and national economy.economy (including the impact of tariffs, a U.S. withdrawal from or significant renegotiation of trade agreements, trade wars and other changes in trade regulation).

·

Changes in the interest rate environment.

The economic impact of exceptional weather occurrences such as tornadoes, floods and blizzards.

·

The economic impact of past and any future terrorist attacks, acts of war or threats thereof and the response of the United States to any such threats and attacks.

·

The impact of cybersecurity risks.

·

Item 7A.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company, like other financial institutions, is subject to direct and indirect market risk. Direct market risk exists from changes in interest rates. The Company’s net income is dependent on its net interest income. Net interest income is susceptible to interest rate risk to the degree that interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice on a different basis than interest-earning assets. When interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice more quickly than interest-earning assets in a given period, a significant increase in market rates of interest could adversely affect net interest income. Similarly, when interest-earning assets mature or reprice more quickly than interest-bearing liabilities, falling interest rates could result in a decrease in net interest income.

In an attempt to manage the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates, management monitors the Company’s interest rate risk. Each subsidiary bank has an asset/liability management committee of the board of directors that meets quarterly to review the bank’s interest rate risk position and profitability, and to make or recommend adjustments, as necessary, for consideration by the full board of each bank.

Internal asset/liability management teams consisting of members of the subsidiary banks’ management meet weekly to manage the mix of assets and liabilities to maximize earnings and liquidity and minimize interest rate and other risks. Management also reviews the subsidiary banks’ securities portfolios, formulates investment strategies, and oversees the timing and implementation of transactions to assure attainment of the board'sboard’s objectives in the most effective manner. Notwithstanding the Company’s interest rate risk management activities, the potential for changing interest rates is an uncertainty that can have an adverse effect on net income.

In adjusting the Company’s asset/liability position, the board of directors and management attempt to manage the Company’s interest rate risk while maintaining or enhancing net interest margins. At times, depending on the level of general interest rates, the relationship between long-term and short-term interest rates, market conditions and competitive factors, the board of directors and management may decide to increase the Company’s interest rate risk position somewhat in order to increase its net interest margin. The Company’s results of operations and net portfolio values remain vulnerable to increases in interest rates and to fluctuations in the difference between long-term and short-term interest rates.


One method used to quantify interest rate risk is a short-term earnings at risk summary, which is a detailed and dynamic simulation model used to quantify the estimated exposure of net interest income to sustained interest rate changes. This simulation model captures the impact of changing interest rates on the interest income received and interest expense paid on all interest sensitive assets and liabilities reflected on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. This sensitivity analysis demonstrates net interest income exposure annually over a five-year horizon, assuming no balance sheet growth, no balance sheet mix change, and various interest rate scenarios including no change in rates; 100, 200, 300 400, and 500400 basis point upward shifts; and a 100 and 200 basis point downward shiftshifts in interest rates, where interest-bearing assets and liabilities reprice at their earliest possible repricing date.

The model assumes parallel and pro rata shifts in interest rates over a twelve-month period for the 200 basis point upward shift and 100 and 200 basis point downward shift.shifts. For the 400 basis point upward shift, the model assumes a parallel and pro rata shift in interest rates over a twenty-four month period. For the 500 basis point upward shift, the model assumes a flattening and pro rata shift in interest rates over a twelve-month period where the short-end of the yield curve shifts upward greater than the long-end of the yield curve.

Further, in recent years, the Company added additional interest rate scenarios where interest rates experience a parallel and instantaneous shift (“shock”) upward of 100, 200, 300, and 400 basis points and a parallel and instantaneous  shock downward of 100 and 200 basis points. The Company will run additional interest rate scenarios on an as-needed basis.

The asset/liability management committees of the subsidiary bank boards of directors have established policy limits of a 10% decline in net interest income for the 200 basis point upward parallel shift and the 100 basis point downward parallel shift. For the 300 basis point upward shock, the established policy limit has been increased tois a 25% decline in net interest income. The increased policy limit is appropriate as the shock scenario is extreme and unlikely and warrants a higher limit than the more realistic and traditional parallel/pro-rata shift scenarios.

The simulation is within the board-established policy limits for all three scenarios. Additionally, for all of the various interest rate scenarios modeled and measured by management (as described above), the results at December 31, 20152018 were well within established risk tolerances as established by policy or by best practice (if the interest rate scenario didn’t have a specific policy limit).

In 2014, the Company executed two interest rate cap transactions, each with a notional value of $15.0 million, for a total of $30.0 million. The interest rate caps purchased essentially set a ceiling to the interest rate paid on the $30.0 million of short-term FHLB advances that are being hedged, minimizing the interest rate risk associated with rising interest rates. The Company will continue to analyze and evaluate similar transactions as an alternative and cost effective way to mitigate interest rate risk.

Interest rate risk is considered to be one of the most significant market risks affecting the Company. For that reason, the Company engages the assistance of a national consulting firm and its risk management system to monitor and control the Company’s interest rate risk exposure.  Other types of market risk, such as foreign currency exchange rate risk and commodity price risk, do not arise in the normal course of the Company’s business activities.

Significant accounting policies:

Accounting estimates: The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance, OTTI of securities, impairment of goodwill, the fair value of financial instruments, and the fair value of financial instruments.assets acquired/liabilities assumed in a business combination.

Principles of consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial statementsConsolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, except those six subsidiaries formed for the issuance of trust preferred securities which do not meet the criteria for consolidation.

Note 1. Nature of Business and Significant Account Policies (continued)

Investment securities: Investment securities held to maturity are those debt securities that the Company has the ability and intent to hold until maturity regardless of changes in market conditions, liquidity needs, or changes in general economic conditions. Such securities are carried at cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. If the ability or intent to hold to maturity is not present for certain specified securities, such securities are considered AFS as the Company intends to hold them for an indefinite period of time but not necessarily to maturity. Any decision to sell a security classified as AFS would be based on various factors, including movements in interest rates, changes in the maturity mix of the Company'sCompany’s assets and liabilities, liquidity needs, regulatory capital considerations, and other factors. Securities AFS are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains or losses, net of taxes, are reported as increases or decreases in AOCI. Realized gains or losses, determined on the basis of the cost of specific securities sold, are included in earnings.

All securities are evaluated to determine whether declines in fair value below their amortized cost are other-than-temporary.

In estimating OTTI losses on AFS debt securities, management considers a number of factors including, but not limited to, (1) the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) the current market conditions, and (4) the lack of intent of the Company to not sell the security prior to recovery and whether it is not more-likely-than-not that it will be required to sell the security prior to recovery.

If the Company does not intendlacks the intent to sell the security, and it is not more-likely-than-not the entity will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the Company will recognize the credit component of an OTTI of a debt security in earnings and the remaining portion in other comprehensive income. For held to maturity debt securities, the amount of an OTTI recorded in other comprehensive income for the noncredit portion would be amortized prospectively over the remaining life of the security on the basis of the timing of future estimated cash flows of the security.

In estimating OTTI losses on AFS equity securities management considers factors (1), (2) and (3) above as well as whether the Company has the intent and the ability to hold the security until its recovery. If the Company (a) intends to sell an impaired equity security and does not expect the fair value of the security to fully recover before the expected time of sale, or (b) does not have the ability to hold the security until its recovery, the security is deemed other-than-temporarily impaired and the impairment is charged to earnings. The Company recognizes an impairment loss through earnings if based upon other factors the loss is deemed to be other-than-temporary even if the decision to sell has not been made.

Loans receivable, held for sale: Residential real estate loans which are originated and intended for resale in the secondary market in the foreseeable future are classified as held for sale. These loans are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. As assets specifically acquired for resale, the origination of, disposition of, and gain/loss on these loans are classified as operating activities in the statement of cash flows.


QCR Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Note 1.     Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Loans receivable, held for investment: Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until pay-off or maturity occurs, are classified as held for investment. These loans are stated at the amount of unpaid principal adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance, and any deferred fees and/or costs on originated loans. Interest is credited to earnings as earned based on the principal amount outstanding. Deferred direct loan origination fees and/or costs are amortized as an adjustment of the related loan’s yield. As assets held for and used in the production of services, the origination and collection of these loans are classified as investing activities in the statement of cash flows.

The Company discloses the allowance for credit losses (also known as the allowance) and fair value by portfolio segment, and credit quality information, impaired financing receivables, nonaccrual status, and TDRs by class of financing receivable. A portfolio segment is the level at which the Company develops and documents a systematic methodology to determine its allowance for credit losses. A class of financing receivable is a further disaggregation of a portfolio segment based on risk characteristics and the Company’s method for monitoring and assessing credit risk. See the following information and Note 4.

The Company’s portfolio segments are as follows:

·

C&I

·

CRE

·

Residential real estate

·

Installment and other consumer

Direct financing leases are considered a segment within the overall loan/lease portfolio.

The Company’s classes of loans receivable are as follows:

·

C&I

·

Owner-occupied CRE

·

Commercial construction, land development, and other land loans that are not owner-occupied CRE

·

Other non-owner-occupied CRE

·

Residential real estate

·

Installment and other consumer

Direct financing leases are considered a class of financing receivable within the overall loan/lease portfolio. The accounting policies for direct financing leases are disclosed below.

Generally, for all classes of loans receivable, loans are considered past due when contractual payments are delinquent for 31 days or greater.


QCR Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Note 1.     Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

For all classes of loans receivable, loans will generally be placed on nonaccrual status when the loan has become 90 days past due (unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection); or if any of the following conditions exist:

·

It becomes evident that the borrower will not make payments, or will not or cannot meet the terms for renewal of a matured loan;

·

When full repayment of principal and interest is not expected;

·

When the loan is graded “doubtful”;

·

When the borrower files bankruptcy and an approved plan of reorganization or liquidation is not anticipated in the near future; or

·

When foreclosure action is initiated.

When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, income recognition is ceased. Previously recorded but uncollected amounts of interest on nonaccrual loans are reversed at the time the loan is placed on nonaccrual status. Generally, cash collected on nonaccrual loans is applied to principal. Should full collection of principal be expected, cash collected on nonaccrual loans can be recognized as interest income.

For all classes of loans receivable, nonaccrual loans may be restored to accrual status provided the following criteria are met:

·

The loan is current, and all principal and interest amounts contractually due have been made;

·

All principal and interest amounts contractually due, including past due payments, are reasonably assured of repayment within a reasonable period; and

·

There is a period of minimum repayment performance, as follows, by the borrower in accordance with contractual terms:

o

Six months of repayment performance for contractual monthly payments, or

o

One year of repayment performance for contractual quarterly or semi-annual payments.

oSix months of repayment performance for contractual monthly payments, or

oOne year of repayment performance for contractual quarterly or semi-annual payments.

Note 1. Nature of Business and Significant Account Policies (continued)

Direct finance leases receivable, held for investment: The Company leases machinery and equipment to customers under leases that qualify as direct financing leases for financial reporting and as operating leases for income tax purposes. Under the direct financing method of accounting, the minimum lease payments to be received under the lease contract, together with the estimated unguaranteed residual values (approximately 3% to 25% of the cost of the related equipment), are recorded as lease receivables when the lease is signed and the lease property delivered to the customer. The excess of the minimum lease payments and residual values over the cost of the equipment is recorded as unearned lease income. Unearned lease income is recognized over the term of the lease on a basis that results in an approximate level rate of return on the unrecovered lease investment.

Lease income is recognized on the interest method. Residual value is the estimated fair market value of the equipment on lease at lease termination. In estimating the equipment’s fair value at lease termination, the Company relies on historical experience by equipment type and manufacturer and, where available, valuations by independent appraisers, adjusted for known trends.

The Company’s estimates are reviewed continuously to ensure reasonableness; however, the amounts the Company will ultimately realize could differ from the estimated amounts. If the review results in a lower estimate than had been previously established, a determination is made as to whether the decline in estimated residual value is other-than-temporary. If the decline in estimated unguaranteed residual value is judged to be other-than-temporary, the accounting for the transaction is revised using the changed estimate. The resulting reduction in the investment is recognized as a loss in the period in which the estimate is changed. An upward adjustment of the estimated residual value is not recorded.

The policies for delinquency and nonaccrual for direct financing leases are materially consistent with those described above for all classes of loan receivables.

The Company defers and amortizes fees and certain incremental direct costs over the contractual term of the lease as an adjustment to the yield. TheseIn periods prior to and including December 31, 2018, these initial direct leasing costs  generally approximateapproximated 5.5% of the leased asset’s cost. With the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019, a portion of these costs will now be expensed instead of deferred.  Accordingly, initial direct leasing costs are expected to approximate only 4.9% of the leased asset’s cost in 2019. The unamortized direct costs are recorded as a reduction of unearned lease income.

TDRs:  TDRs exist when the Company, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s/lessee’s financial difficulties, grants a concession (either imposed by court order, law, or agreement between the borrower/lessee and the Company) to the borrower/lessee that it would not otherwise consider. The Company is attemptingattempts to maximize its recovery of the balances of the loans/leases through these various concessionary restructurings.

The following criteria, related to granting a concession, together or separately, create a TDR:

·

A modification of terms of a debt such as one or a combination of:

oThe reduction of the stated interest rate to a rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk.

oThe extension of the maturity date or dates at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk.

oThe reduction of the face amount or maturity amount of the debt as stated in the instrument or other agreement.

oThe reduction of accrued interest.

The reduction of the stated interest rate.

o·

The extension of the maturity date or dates at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for the new debt with similar risk.

o

The reduction of the face amount or maturity amount of the debt as stated in the instrument or other agreement.

o

The reduction of accrued interest.

A transfer from the borrower/lessee to the Company of receivables from third parties, real estate, other assets, or an equity position in the borrower to fully or partially satisfy a loan.

·

The issuance or other granting of an equity position to the Company to fully or partially satisfy a debt unless the equity position is granted pursuant to existing terms for converting the debt into an equity position.

Allowance:For all portfolio segments, the allowance is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision that is charged to earnings. Loan/lease losses, for all portfolio segments, are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan/lease balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

For all portfolio segments, the allowance is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectability of the loans/leases in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan/lease portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s/lessee’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

A discussion of the risk characteristics and the allowance by each portfolio segment follows:

ForC&I loans,, the Company focuses on small and mid-sized businesses with primary operations as wholesalers, manufacturers, building contractors, business services companies, other banks, and retailers. The Company provides a wide range of C&I loans, including lines of credit for working capital and operational purposes, and term loans for the acquisition of facilities, equipment and other purposes. Approval is generally based on the following factors:

·

Ability and stability of current management of the borrower;

·

Stable earnings with positive financial trends;

·

Sufficient cash flow to support debt repayment;

·

Earnings projections based on reasonable assumptions;

·

Financial strength of the industry and business; and

·

Value and marketability of collateral.

Collateral for C&I loans generally includes accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and real estate. The Company’s lending policy specifies approved collateral types and corresponding maximum advance percentages. The value of collateral pledged on loans must exceed the loan amount by a margin sufficient to absorb potential erosion of its value in the event of foreclosure and cover the loan amount plus costs incurred to convert it to cash.

The Company’s lending policy specifies maximum term limits for C&I loans. For term loans, the maximum term is generally 7 years. Generally, term loans rangeyears with average terms ranging from 3 to 5 years. For low-income housing tax credit permanent loans, the maximum term is generally up to 20 years. For lines of credit, the maximum term is typicallygenerally 365 days.

In addition, the Company often takes personal guarantees or cosigners to help assure repayment. Loans may be made on an unsecured basis if warranted by the overall financial condition of the borrower.

CRE loans are subject to underwriting standards and processes similar to C&I loans, in addition to those standards and processes specific to real estate loans. Collateral for CRE loans generally includes the underlying real estate and improvements, and may include additional assets of the borrower. The Company’s lending policy specifies maximum loan-to-value limits based on the category of CRE (CRE loans on improved property, raw land, land development, and commercial construction). These limits are the same limits established by regulatory authorities.

The Company’s lending policy also includes guidelines for real estate appraisals, including minimum appraisal standards based on certain transactions. In addition, the Company often takes personal guarantees to help assure repayment.

In addition, management tracks the level of owner-occupied CRE loans versus non-owner occupied loans. Owner-occupied loans are generally considered to have less risk. As of December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, approximately 35%28% and 37%26%, respectively, of the CRE loan portfolio was owner-occupied.

The Company’s lending policy limitsincorporates regulatory guidelines which stipulate that non-owner occupied CRE lending toin excess of 300% of total risk-based capital, and limits construction, land development, and other land loans toin excess of 100% of total risk-based capital. Exceeding these limits warrantscapital warrant the use of heightened risk management practices in accordance with regulatory guidelines.practices. As of December 31, 20152018 and 2014, all three subsidiary banks2017, QCBT, CRBT and RB&T were in compliance with these limits.

Although CSB’s and SFC Bank’s loan portfolio have historically been real estate dominated and the real estate portfolio levels at each bank exceed these policy limits, a Credit Risk Committee has been established to routinely monitor its real estate loan portfolio. CSB’s real estate levels, while still elevated at December 31, 2018, have declined since December 31, 2017.

In some instances for all loans/leases, it may be appropriate to originate or purchase loans/leases that are exceptions to the guidelines and limits established within the Company’s lending policy described above and below. In general, exceptions to the lending policy do not significantly deviate from the guidelines and limits established within the Company’s lending policy and, if there are exceptions, they are clearly noted as such and specifically identified in loan/lease approval documents.

ForC&I and CRE loans,, the allowance consists of specific and general components.

The specific component relates to loans that are classified as impaired, as defined below. For those loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan are lower than the carrying value of that loan.

For C&I loans and all classes of CRE loans, a loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a case-by-case basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

The general component consists of quantitative and qualitative factors and covers non-impaired loans. The quantitative factors are based on historical charge-off experience and expected loss given default derived from the Company’s internal risk rating process. See below for a detailed description of the Company’s internal risk rating scale. The qualitative factors are determined based on an assessment of internal and/or external influences on credit quality that are not fully reflected in the historical loss or risk rating data.

For C&I and CRE loans, the Company utilizes the following internal risk rating scale:

1.

1. Highest Quality (Pass) – loans of the highest quality with no credit risk, including those fully secured by subsidiary bank certificates of deposit and U.S. government securities.

2.

Superior Quality (Pass) – loans with very strong credit quality. Borrowers have exceptionally strong earnings, liquidity, capital, cash flow coverage, and management ability. Includes loans secured by high quality marketable securities, certificates of deposit from other institutions, and cash value of life insurance. Also includes loans supported by U.S. government, state, or municipal guarantees.

3.

Satisfactory Quality (Pass) – loans with satisfactory credit quality. Established borrowers with satisfactory financial condition, including credit quality, earnings, liquidity, capital and cash flow coverage. Management is capable and

Collateral coverage and guarantor support, if applicable, are more than adequate. Includes loans secured by personal assets and business assets, including equipment, accounts receivable, inventory, and real estate.

4. Fair Quality (Pass)–loans with moderate but still acceptable credit quality. The primary repayment source remains adequate; however, management’s ability to maintain consistent profitability is unproven or uncertain. Borrowers exhibit acceptable leverage and liquidity. May include new businesses with inexperienced management or unproven performance records in relation to peer, or borrowers operating in highly cyclical or deteriorating industries.

The primary repayment source remains adequate; however, management’s ability to maintain consistent profitability is unproven or uncertain. Borrowers exhibit acceptable leverage and liquidity. May include new businesses with inexperienced management or unproven performance records in relation to peer, or borrowers operating in highly cyclical or declining industries.


5.

Early Warning (Pass) – loans where the borrowers have generally performed as agreed, however unfavorable financial trends exist or are anticipated. Earnings may be erratic, with marginal cash flow or declining sales. Borrowers reflect leveraged financial condition and/or marginal liquidity. Management may be new and a track record of performance has yet to be developed. Financial information may be incomplete, and reliance on secondary repayment sources may be increasing.

6.

Special Mention – loans where the borrowers exhibit credit weaknesses or unfavorable financial trends requiring close monitoring. Weaknesses and adverse trends are more pronounced than Early Warning loans, and if left uncorrected, may jeopardize repayment according to the contractual terms. Currently, no loss of principal or interest is expected. Borrowers in this category have deteriorated to the point that it would be difficult to refinance with another lender. Special Mention should be assigned to borrowers in turnaround situations. This rating is intended as a transitional rating, therefore, it is generally not assigned to a borrower for a period of more than one year.

These loans have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses which jeopardize repayment according to the contractual terms. There is distinct loss potential if the weaknesses are not corrected. Includes loans with insufficient cash flow coverage which are collateral dependent, other real estate owned, and repossessed assets.

8. Doubtful–loans which have all the weaknesses inherent in a Substandard loan, with the added characteristic that existing weaknesses make full principal collection, on the basis of current facts, conditions and values, highly doubtful. The possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of pending factors, recognition of a loss is deferred until a more exact status can be determined. All doubtful loans will be placed on non-accrual, with all payments, including principal and interest, applied to principal reduction.

The Company has certain loans risk-rated 7 (substandard), which are not classified as impaired based on the facts of the credit. For these non-impaired and risk-rated 7 loans, the Company does not follow the same allowance methodology as it does for all other non-impaired, collectively evaluated loans. Rather, the Company performs a more detailed analysis including evaluation of the cash flow and collateral valuations. Based upon this evaluation, an estimate of the probable loss in this portfolio is collectively evaluated under ASC 450-20.450‑20. These non-impaired risk-rated 7 loans exist primarily in the C&I and CRE segments.

For term C&I and CRE loans or credit relationships with aggregate exposure greater than $1,000,000, a loan review is required within 15 months of the most recent credit review. The review is completed in enough detail to, at a minimum, validate the risk rating. Additionally, the review shall include an analysis of debt service requirements, covenant compliance, if applicable, and collateral adequacy. The frequency of the review is generally accelerated for loans with poor risk ratings.

The Company’s Loan Quality area performs a documentation review of a sampling of C&I and CRE loans, the primary purpose of which is to ensure the credit is properly documented and closed in accordance with approval authorities and conditions. A review is also performed by the Company’s Internal Audit Department of a sampling of C&I and CRE loans for proper documentation, according to an approved schedule. Validation of the risk rating is also part of Internal Audit’s review (performed by Internal Loan Review). Additionally, over the past several years, the Company has contracted an

For direct financing leases, the allowance consists of specific and general components.

The specific component relates to leases that are classified as impaired, as defined for commercial loans above. For those leases that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired lease is lower than the carrying value of that lease.

The general component consists of quantitative and qualitative factors and covers nonimpaired leases. The quantitative factors are based on historical charge-off experience for the entire lease portfolio. The qualitative factors are determined based on an assessment of internal and/or external influences on credit quality that are not fully reflected in the historical loss data.

Generally, the Company’sresidential real estate loans conform to the underwriting requirements of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae to allow the subsidiary banks to resell loans in the secondary market. The subsidiary banks structure most loans that will not conform to those underwriting requirements as adjustable rate mortgages that mature or adjust in one to five years or fixed rate mortgages that mature in 15 years, and then retain these loans in their portfolios. Servicing rights are not presently retained on the loans sold in the secondary market. The Company’s lending policy establishes minimum appraisal and other credit guidelines.

The Company provides many types ofinstallment and other consumer loans including motor vehicle, home improvement, home equity, signature loans and small personal credit lines. The Company’s lending policy addresses specific credit guidelines by consumer loan type.

Forresidential real estate loans, and installment and other consumer loans,, these large groups of smaller balance homogenous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. The Company applies a quantitative factor based on historical charge-off experience in total for each of these segments. Accordingly, the Company generally does not separately identify individual residential real estate loans, and/or installment or other consumer loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement due to financial difficulties of the borrower.

TDRs are considered impaired loans/leases and are subject to the same allowance methodology as described above for impaired loans/leases by portfolio segment.

Once a loan is classified as a TDR, it will remain a TDR until the loan is paid off, charged off, moved to OREO or restructured into a new note without a concession. TDR status may also be removed if the TDR was restructured in a prior calendar year, is current, accruing interest and shows sustained performance.

Credit related financial instruments: In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.

Note 1. Nature of Business and Significant AccountingAccount Policies (continued)

Transfers of financial assets: Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales only when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when: (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right to pledge or exchange the assets it received, and no condition both constrains the transferee from taking advantage of its right to pledge or exchange and provides more than a modest benefit to the transferor, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity or the ability to unilaterally cause the holder to return specific assets. In addition, for transfers of a portion of financial assets (for example, participations of loan receivables), the transfer must meet the definition of a “participating interest” in order to account for the transfer as a sale. Following are the characteristics of a “participating interest”:

·

Pro-rata ownership in an entire financial asset.

·

From the date of the transfer, all cash flows received from entire financial assets are divided proportionately among the participating interest holders in an amount equal to their share of ownership.

·

The rights of each participating interest holder have the same priority, and no participating interest holder’s interest is subordinated to the interest of another participating interest holder. That is, no participating interest holder is entitled to receive cash before any other participating interest holder under its contractual rights as a participating interest holder.

·

No party has the right to pledge or exchange the entire financial asset unless all participating interest holders agree to pledge or exchange the entire financial asset.

BOLI: BOLI is carried at cash surrender value with increases/decreases reflected as income/expense in the statement of income.

Premises and equipment: Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed primarily by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

Restricted investment securities: Restricted investment securities represent FHLB and FRB common stock. The stock is carried at cost. These equity securities are “restricted” in that they can only be sold back to the respective institution or another member institution at par. Therefore, they are less liquid than other tradable equity securities. The Company views its investment in restricted stock as a long-term investment. Accordingly, when evaluating for impairment, the value is determined based on the ultimate recovery of the par value, rather than recognizing temporary declines in value. There have been no other-than-temporary write-downs recorded on these securities.

 

OREO: Real estate acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosures, is held for sale and initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell, establishing a new cost basis. Any writedown to fair value taken at the time of foreclosure is charged to the allowance. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Subsequent write-downs to fair value are charged to earnings. The Company had approximately $685 thousand and $170 thousand of residential real estate properties that were in the process of foreclosure as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Company also had approximately $471 thousand and $54 thousand of residential real estate properties that were included in OREO as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Repossessed assets: Equipment or other non-real estate property acquired through, or in lieu of foreclosure, is held for sale and initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had $246,612 and $154,528, respectively, of repossessedRepossessed assets that wereare included withinin other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.consolidated balance sheets.

Goodwill: The Company has recorded goodwill from QCBT’s purchase of 80% of m2 in August 2005.various business combinations. The goodwill is not being amortized, but is evaluated at least annually for impairment. An impairment charge is recognized when the calculated fair value of the reporting unit, including goodwill, is less than its carrying amount. Based on the annual analysis completed as of September 30, 2015,2018, which used a quantitative approach, the Company determined that the goodwill was not impaired. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Core deposit intangible: The Company has recorded a core deposit intangible from the acquisition of Community National.historical acquisitions including CNB, CSB and  Guaranty Bank, and from its merger with Springfield Banchshares. The core deposit intangible was the portion of the acquisition purchase price which represented the value assigned to the existing deposit base at acquisition. See Notes 2 and 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. The core deposit intangible hasintangibles have a finite life and isare amortized by the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the deposits (10(estimated to be ten years).

Customer list intangible: The Company has recorded a customer list intangible from the Bates Companies acquisition.  The customer list intangible was the portion of the acquisition purchase price which represented the value assigned to the existing customer base at acquisition.  See Notes 2 and 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for addition information.  The customer list intangible has a finite life and will be amortized over the estimated useful life (estimated to be fifteen years).

Swap transactions: The Company offers a loan swap program to certain commercial loan customers. Through this program, the Company originates a variable rate loan with the customer. The Company and the swap customer will then enter into a fixed interest rate swap. Lastly, an identical offsetting swap is entered into by the Company with a counterparty. These “back-to-back” swap arrangements are intended to offset each other and allow the Company to book a variable rate loan, while providing the customer with a contract for fixed interest payments. In these arrangements, the Company’s net cash flow is equal to the interest income received from the variable rate loan originated with the customer. These customer swaps are not designated as hedging instruments and are recorded at fair value in other assets and other liabilities. Additionally, the Company receives an upfront fee from the counterparty, dependent upon the pricing that is recognized upon receipt from the counterparty. Swap fee income totaled $10.8 million, $3.1 million and $1.7 million $155 thousand and $105 thousand for the years ending December 31, 2015, 20142018, 2017 and 2013,2016, respectively.

Fee income from earlytermination of leases:  From time to time, leasing customers will choose to terminate their lease agreements prior to the original maturity date. At termination, the Company recognizes income related to these terminations (similar to a prepayment penalty).

Derivatives and hedging activities: The Company enters into derivative financial instruments as part of its strategy to manage its exposure to changes in interest rates.

Derivative instruments represent contracts between parties that result in one party delivering cash to the other party based on a notional amount and an underlying index (such as a rate, security price or price index) as specified in the contract. The amount of cash delivered from one party to the other is determined based on the interaction of the notional amount of the contract with the underlying index.

The derivative financial instruments currently used by the Company to manage its exposure to interest rate risk include: (1) interest rate lock commitments provided to customers to fund certain mortgage loans to be sold into the secondary market (although this type of derivative is negligible); and (2) interest rate caps to manage the interest rate risk of certain short-term fixed rate liabilities.

liabilities; and (3) interest rate swaps on variable rate trust preferred securities.

Interest rate caps and interest rate swaps are valued by the transaction counterparty on a monthly basis and corroborated by a third party annually. The company uses the hypothetical derivative method to assess and measure effectiveness in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging.

Preferred stock: The Company currently has 250,000 shares of preferred stock authorized, but none outstanding as of December 31, 20152018 and 2014.2017. Should the Company have preferred stock outstanding in the future, dividends declared on those shares would be deducted from net income to arrive at net income available to common shareholders.stockholders. Net income available to common shareholdersstockholders would then be used in the earnings per share computations.computation

 

Treasury stock:  Treasury stock is accounted for by the cost method, whereby shares of common stock reacquired are recorded at their purchase price. When treasury stock is reissued, any difference between the sales proceeds, or fair value when issued for business combinations, and the cost is recognized as a charge or credit to additional paid-in capital. The Company’s treasury stock was retired in 2015.

The fair value is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods of the grants and will be adjusted for subsequent changes in estimated forfeitures. The expected dividend yield assumption is based on the Company'sCompany’s current expectations about its anticipated dividend policy. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of the Company'sCompany’s common stock price. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the option or purchase is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant. The expected life of the option and purchase grants is derived using the “simplified” method and represents the period of time that options and purchases are expected to be outstanding. Historical data is used to estimate forfeitures used in the model. Two separate groups of employees (employees subject to broad based grants, and executive employees and directors) are used.

As of December 31, 2015,2018, there was $721,916$704,659 of unrecognized compensation cost related to share based payments,stock options granted, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.281.66 years.

The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying awards and the quoted price of the Company'sCompany’s common stock for the 623,176411,030 options that were in-the-money at December 31, 2015.2018. The aggregate intrinsic value at December 31, 20152018 was $6.5$7.1 million on options outstanding and $4.6$6.3 million on options exercisable. During the years ended December 31, 2015, 20142018, 2017 and 2013,2016, the aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised under the Company'sCompany’s stock option plans was $480,354, $173,105,$365,107, $1,005,193, and $268,920,$1,525,902, respectively, and determined as of the date of the option exercise.

Restricted stock awards granted may not be sold or otherwise transferred until the service periods have lapsed. During the vesting periods, participants have voting rights and receive dividends. Upon termination of employment, common shares upon which the service periods have not lapsed must be returned to the Company.

All restricted share awards are classified as equity awards. The grant-date fair value of equity-classified restricted stock awards is amortized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the period restrictions lapse.

As of December 31, 2018, there was $1,976,929 of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested restricted stock awards expected to be recognized over a period of 1.51 years.

Income taxes: The Company files its tax return on a consolidated basis with its subsidiaries. The entities follow the direct reimbursement method of accounting for income taxes under which income taxes or credits which result from the inclusion of the subsidiaries in the consolidated tax return are paid to or received from the parent company.

Deferred income taxes are provided under the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of thebenefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.

Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as additional income taxes in the statements of income.

Trust assets: Trust assets held by the subsidiary banks in a fiduciary, agency, or custodial capacity for their customers, other than cash on deposit at the subsidiary banks, are not included in the accompanying consolidated financial statementsConsolidated Financial Statements since such items are not assets of the subsidiary banks.

Earnings per share: See Note 17 for a complete description and calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share.

Revenue Recognition: As of January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014‑09 using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption of the guidance had no material impact on the measurement or recognition of revenue as approximately 89% of the Company's revenue (based on 2017 audited financial results) is outside the scope of this guidance; however, additional disclosures have been added in accordance with the ASU.

Descriptions of our revenue-generating contracts with customers that are within the scope of ASU 2014‑09, which are presented in our income statements as components of non-interest income are as follows:

Trust department and Investment advisory and management fees: This is a contract between the Company and its customers for fiduciary and/or investment administration services on trust and brokerage accounts. Trust services and brokerage fee income is determined as a percentage of assets under management and is recognized over the period the underlying trust account is serviced. Such contracts are generally cancellable at any time, with the customer subject to a pro-rated fee in the month of termination.

Deposit service fees: The deposit contract obligates the Company to serve as a custodian of the customer's deposited funds and is generally terminable at will by either party. The contract permits the customer to access the funds on deposit and request additional services related to the deposit account. Deposit account related fees, including analysis charges, overdraft/nonsufficient fund charges, service charges, debit card usage fees, overdraft fees and wire transfer fees are within the scope of the guidance; however, revenue recognition practices did not change under the guidance, as deposit agreements are considered day-to-day contracts. Income for deposit accounts is recognized over the statement cycle period (typically on a monthly basis) or at the time the service is provided, if additional services are requested.

Correspondent banking fees: A contract between the Company and its correspondent banks for corresponding banking services. This line of business provides a strong source of noninterest bearing and interest bearing deposits, fee income, high-quality loan participations and bank stock loans. Correspondent banking fee income is tied to transaction activity and revenue is recognized monthly as earned for services provided.

Reclassifications: Certain amounts in the prior year financial statementsyear’s Consolidated Financial Statements have been reclassified, with no effect on net income, comprehensive income or stockholders’ equity, to conform with the current period presentation.

Note 1.     Nature of Business and SignificantNew Accounting Policies (continued)Prounouncement:

New accounting pronouncements: In

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09,2014‑09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.Customers. ASU 2014-092014‑09 implements a common revenue standard that clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue. The core principle of ASU 2014-092014‑09 is that an entity should recognize 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. To achieve that core principle, an entity should apply the following steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. ASU 2014-092014‑09 was originally effective for the Company on January 1, 2017,2018, however, FASB issued ASU 2015-142015‑14 which defersdeferred the effective date in order to provide additional time for both public and private entities to evaluate the impact. ASU 2014-09 will now be effective for2014‑09 was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2018 and it is not expected to have ahad no significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-02,Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. ASU 2015-02 is intended to improve targeted areas of consolidation guidance for legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability corporations, and securitization structures (collateralized debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations, and mortgage-backed security transactions). The ASU focuses on the consolidation evaluation for reporting organizations that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. The ASU also reduces the number of consolidation models from four to two. ASU 2015-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015 and adoption is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-01,2016‑01, Financial Instruments – Overall. ASU 2016-012016‑01 makes targeted adjustments to GAAP by eliminating the available for sale classification for equity securities and requiring equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. The standard also requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. The standard clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets. It also requires an entity to present separately (within 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 when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. Additionally, the standard eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-01 was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2018 and had no significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016‑02, Leases. Under ASU 2016‑02, lessees will be required to recognize a lease liability measured on a discounted basis and a right-of-use asset for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases). Lessor accounting is largely unchanged under ASU 2016‑02. However, the definition of initial direct costs was updated to include only initial direct costs that are considered incremental. This change in definition will change the manner in which the Company recognizes the costs associated with originating leases. ASU 2016‑02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017,2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The standard was adopted on January 1, 2019 and is expected to have no significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 1. Nature of Business and Significant Account Policies (continued)

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016‑13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. Under the standard, assets measured at amortized cost (including loans, leases and AFS securities) will be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Rather than the “incurred” model that is currently being utilized, the standard will require the use of a forward-looking approach to recognizing all expected credit losses at the beginning of an asset’s life. For public companies, ASU 2016‑13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Companies may choose to early adopt for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of analyzing the impact of adoption.adoption on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350). ASU 2017-04 is intended to simplify goodwill impairment testing by eliminating the second step of the analysis. ASU 2017-04 requires entities to compare the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognize an impairment charge for any amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, to the extent that the loss recognized does not exceed the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a significant impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

In November 2015,February 2018, the FASB reached a decision on the effective date for its yet to be issued standard regarding measurementASU 2018‑02, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of credit losses on financial instruments. Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. Under the standard, entities are allowed to make a one-time reclassification from AOCI to retained earnings for the effect of remeasuring deferred tax liabilities and assets originally recorded in other comprehensive income as a result of the change in the federal tax rate as defined by the Tax Act. ASU 2018‑02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those years. Companies may choose to early adopt for fiscal years or interim periods that have not been issued or made available for issuance as of February 14, 2018. The Company chose to early adopt ASU 2018‑02 and apply the guidance to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2017.  The reclassification from AOCI to retained earnings for 2017 totaled $304 thousand and is presented in the Consolidated Statements of changes in Stockholders’  Equity.

Note 2. Mergers/Acquisitions

General

The narrative in this subsection applies to all mergers and acquisitions detailed throughout this footnote.

Loans acquired in a business combination are recorded and initially measured at their estimated fair value as of the acquisition date. Credit discounts are included in the determination of fair value. A third party valuation consultant assisted with the determination of fair value.

Purchased loans are segregated into two categories: PCI loans and non-PCI (performing) loans. PCI loans are accounted for in accordance with ASC 310‑30, as they display significant credit deterioration since origination and it is expected that impairmentprobable, as of the Company’s loans/leases receivableacquisition date, that the Company will be measured usingunable to collect all contractually required payments from the current expectedborrower. Performing loans are accounted for in accordance with ASC 310‑20, as these loans do not have evidence of significant credit loss model, whichdeterioration since origination and it is probable that the contractually required payments will entail day-one recognition of life-of-asset expected losses. The standard isbe received from the borrower.

For PCI loans, the difference between the contractually required payments at acquisition and the cash flows expected to be issued duringcollected is referred to as the first quarternon-accretable discount. Further, any excess cash flows expected at acquisition over the estimated fair value is referred to as the accretable yield and is recognized in interest income over the expected remaining life of 2016the loan. Subsequent to the purchase date, increases in cash flows over those expected at the purchase date are recognized as interest income prospectively. The present value of any decreases in expected cash flows after the purchase date is recognized by recording an allowance for loan and will be effectivelease losses and provision for the Company for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2019.

Bates Companies

On May 13, 2013,October 1, 2018, the Company acquired the Bates Companies, headquartered in Rockford, Illinois. The acquisition  enhanced the wealth management services of the Company by adding approximately $704 million of assets under management at acquisition.   In the acquisition, the Company acquired 100% of Community National’sthe Bates Companies’ outstanding common stock for aggregate consideration totaling $19,441,834, which consisted of 834,715 shares$3.0 million cash and up to $3.0 million of the Company’s common stock valuedstock.  Of the total cash consideration, $1.5million in cash was paid at $13,180,150closing funded through operating cash.  The additional $1.5 million was recorded as a promissory note and cashwill be repaid in five equal, annual installments of $6,261,684. Community National was$300,000 each on the first through fifth anniversaries of the closing date.  Interest will be paid at a bank holding company providing bank and bank related services through its wholly-owned bank subsidiary, CNB. CNB wasrate of 2.18% per annum, based on the applicable federal rate as of the closing date.  This $1.5 million promissory note is included in Other Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.  Additionally, in a commercial bank headquartered in Waterloo, Iowa serving Waterloo and Cedar Falls, Iowa. As a de novo bank, CNB commenced its operations in 1997. Previously, CNB also served Mason City, Iowa and Austin, Minnesota. On October 4, 2013,private placement exempt from registration with the SEC, the Company sold certain assets and liabilitiesissued 23,501 shares of Company stock in December 2018.  Assuming all future performance based targets are met, total stock consideration can reach $3.0 million, which would result in the Company issuing approximately 47,003 additional common shares based on the 10-day volume weighted average of the two Mason City branchesclosing stock price of CNB. And, on October 11, 2013, the Company sold certain assetsending five days prior to closing.  The contingent consideration for the additional common shares, totaling $2.0 million, is included in Other Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

During 2018, the Company incurred $394 thousand of expenses related to the acquisition, comprised primarily of legal and liabilitiesaccounting costs.

The Company recorded estimates for the customer list intangible and goodwill during 2018, as purchase accounting calculations were not yet complete.  The Company expects the initial purchase accounting to be complete in the first quarter of 2019. The Company recorded a customer list intangible totaling $1,854,932 which is the portion of the two Austin branchesacquisition purchase price which represents the value assigned to the existing customer base. The customer list intangible has a finite life and is amortized over the estimated useful life of CNB.the customer base. The Company operated CNB as a separate banking charter fromrecorded goodwill totaling $3,766,074 which is the dateexcess of acquisition until October 26, 2013, when CNB’s charter was merged with and into CRBT.

The Company accounted for the business combination under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805,Business Combinations.805. The Company recognized the full fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, net of applicable income tax effects. The excess of fair value of net assets over the carrying value is recorded as bargain purchase gain which is included in noninterest income on the statement of income. The market value adjustments are accreted or amortized on a level yield basis over the expected term. Additionally, the Company recorded a core deposit intangible totaling $3,440,076, which was the portion of the acquisition purchase price that represented the value assigned to the existing deposit base at acquisition. The core deposit intangible has a finite life and is amortized by the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the deposits (10 years).

The Company’s acquired loans were recorded at fair value at the acquisition date and no separate valuation allowance was established. The initial fair value was determined with the assistance of a valuation specialist that discounted expected cash flows at appropriate rates. The discount rates were based on market rates for new originations of comparable loans and did not include a factor for credit losses, as that was included in the estimated cash flows. ASC Topic 310-30, “Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality”, applies to loans acquired in a transfer with evidence of deterioration of credit quality for which it is probable, at acquisition, that the investor will be unable to collect all contractually required payments receivable. If both conditions exist, the Company determines whether to account for each loan individually or whether such loans will be assembled into pools based on common risk characteristics such as credit score, loan type, and origination date. Based on this evaluation, the Company determined that the loans acquired from the Community National acquisitionvalues are subject to ASC Topic 310-30 would be accountedrefinement for individually. Atup to one year after the acquisition date, the historical cost and fair value of these loans totaled $3,033,022 and $2,207,891, respectively.

The Company considered expected prepayments and estimated the total expected cash flows, which includes undiscounted expected principal and interest. The excess of that amount over the fair value of the loan is referred to as accretable yield. Accretable yield is recognized as interest income on a constant yield basis over the expected life of the loan. The excess of the contractual cash flows over expected cash flows is referred to as nonaccretable difference and is not accreted into income. Over the life of the loan, the Company continues to estimate expected cash flows. Subsequent decreases in expected cash flows are recognized as impairments in the current period through a provision for loan losses. Subsequent increases in cash flows to be collected are first used to reverse any existing valuation allowance and any remaining increase is recognized prospectively through an adjustment of the loan’s yield over its remaining life. At the acquisition date, accretable yield totaled $4,128,315 and nonaccretable yield totaled $397,894. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, accretable yield totaled $640,194 and $1,215,398 and nonaccretable yield totaled $71,677 and $98,615, respectively. The decline in accretable yield was primarily the result of accelerated accretion of accretable yield for early payoffs of acquired performing loans and the predetermined schedule of accretable yield.

The Company assumed junior subordinated debentures with principal outstanding of $6,702,000 and fair value of $4,125,175 after a discount of $2,576,825. The initial fair value was determined with the assistance of a valuation specialist that discounted expected cash flows at appropriate rates. The discount is accreted as interest expense on a level yield basis over the expected remaining term of the junior subordinated debentures.

Results of the operations of the acquired business are included in the income statement from the effective date of the acquisition.

In order to fund the cash portion of the consideration and pay off the $3,950,000 of Community National borrowings at acquisition, the Company borrowed $4,400,000 on its 364-day revolving credit note. The outstanding balance on the 364-day revolving credit note totaled $10,000,000 until maturity at June 26, 2013. Upon maturity, the credit facility was restructured whereby the $10,000,000 of outstanding debt was restructured into a secured 3-year term note with principal due quarterly and interest due monthly where the interest is calculated at the effective LIBOR rate plus 3.00% per annum (3.17% at December 31, 2013). Additionally, as part of the restructuring, the Company maintained a secured 364-day revolving credit note with availability of $10,000,000 where the interest is calculated at the effective LIBOR rate plus 2.50% per annum. At December 31, 2013, the Company had not borrowed on this revolving credit note and had the full amount available. See Note 10 regarding 2014 and 2015 activity in this debt.

The current note agreement contains certain covenants that place restrictions on additional debt and stipulate minimum capital and various asset quality and operating ratios.

Note 2.     Community National Bancorporation and Community National Bank (continued)

The Company recorded a bargain purchase gain on the acquisition totaling $1,841,385 as the market value of the net assets acquired from Community National exceeded the total consideration paid. The consideration paid approximated a slight premium to the book value of Community National’s net assets at acquisition. The net impact of the market value adjustments resulted in a net increase to Community National’s net assets.

Springfield Bancshares, Inc.

On July 1, 2018, the Company merged with Springfield Bancshares, the holding company of SFC Bank, headquartered in Springfield, Missouri.  The Company acquired 100% of Springfield Bancshares common stock in the merger.  SFC Bank is a Missouri-chartered bank that operates one location in the Springfield, Missouri market.  As a result of the transaction, SFC Bank became the Company’s fifth independent charter.

The merger with Springfield Bancshares allowed the Company to enter the Springfield, Missouri market which is consistent with the Company’s strategic plan to selectively acquire other high-performing financial institutions in vibrant mid-sized metropolitan markets with a high concentration of commercial clients.  Financial metrics related to the transaction were favorable, as measured by EPS and ROAA accretion.

Stockholders of Springfield Bancshares received 0.3060 shares of the Company’s common stock and $1.50 in cash in exchange for each common share of Springfield Bancshares held.  On June 29, 2018, the last trading date before the closing, the Company’s common stock closed at $47.45, resulting in stock consideration valued at $80.6 million and total consideration paid by the Company of $89.0 million.  To help fund the cash portion of the purchase price, on June 29, 2018, the Company borrowed $4.1 million on its existing $10.0 million revolving line of credit.  The Company also borrowed $4.9 million on this same revolving line of credit to fund the repayment of certain debt assumed in the merger shortly after closing.  This note is included within Other Borrowings on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The remaining cash consideration paid to the shareholders of Springfield Bancshares came from operating cash.

The Company accounted for the business combination under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805. The Company recognized the full fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the merger date, net of applicable income tax effects.  The Company considers all purchase accounting adjustments as provisional and fair values are subject to refinement for up to one year after the closing date.

During the fourth quarter of 2018, various measurement period adjustments were made.  The result of these adjustments was an increase to goodwill of $447 thousand.

The excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. This goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, after measurement period adjustments to date, including the consideration paid and resulting goodwill is as follows.

Note 2. Mergers/Acquisitions (continued)

During 2018, there was no nonaccretable discount that was recognized due to the repayment of PCI loans.  However, $892 thousand of nonaccretable discount was reclassified to accretable during the third quarter of 2018 due to significant improvement on one specific credit subsequent to the merger date.  Of this amount, $396 thousand was accreted to income in 2018, while the remainder will be accreted over the next 8 months, which is the remaining contractual life of the loan.

Premises and equipment acquired with a fair value of $6.1million includes one branch location. The fair value was determined with the assistance of a third party appraiser. The buildings and building write-ups will be recognized in depreciation expense over 39 years.

The Company recorded a core deposit intangible totaling $8.2 million which is the portion of the merger purchase price which represents the value assigned to the existing deposit base. The core deposit intangible has a finite life and is amortized using an accelerated method over the estimated useful life of the deposits (estimated to be ten years). See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

FHLB advances and other borrowings assumed with a fair value of $84.1 million included $40.0 million in overnight FHLB advances, $34.5 million of FHLB term advances, $4.7 million in subordinated debentures and a $4.8 million bank stock loan.  The $4.8 million bank stock loan was paid off immediately after the merger date on July 2, 2018, at its book value.  See Note 10 and 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

During 2018, the Company incurred $1.4 million of expenses related to the merger comprised primarily of legal, accounting, and investment banking costs. These costs are presented on their own line within the consolidated statements of income. SFC Bank results are included in the consolidated statements of income effective on the merger date. For the period July 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018, SFC Bank reported revenues of $15.2 million and net income of $4.8 million, which included $391 thousand of after tax post-acquisition, compensation, transition and integration costs.

The acquisition of Guaranty Bank allowed the Company to grow its market share in the Cedar Rapids market. Guaranty Bank has a strong core deposit base and retail franchise. Although Guaranty already had strong earnings, the Company has identified several opportunities for enhanced future earnings performance. Lastly, financial metrics related to the transaction were favorable, as measured by EPS accretion, ROAA accretion and earn back of tangible book value dilution.

In the acquisition, the Company acquired 100% of Guaranty Bank’s outstanding common stock and purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Guaranty for aggregate consideration consisting of 79% QCR Holdings common stock (678,670 shares) and 21% cash ($7.8 million). On September 29, 2017, the last trading date before the closing, the Company’s common stock closed at $45.50, resulting in stock consideration valued at $30.9 million and total consideration paid by the Company of $38.7 million.

To help fund the cash portion of the purchase price, on September 27, 2017, the Company executed a $7.0 million four-year term note with principal and interest due quarterly. See further information in Note 11. This note is included within other borrowings on the December 31, 2017 Consolidated Balance Sheets. The remaining cash consideration paid to Guaranty came from operating cash.

The Company accounted for the business combination under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805. The Company recognized the full fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, net of applicable income tax effects.

The Company has several areas of specialization, including government guaranteed lending, C&I lending, interest rate swaps, leasing, wealth management, private banking and municipal bond offerings that will be offered in this expanded market, increasing future earnings potential. Guaranty Bank has a strong core deposit base. There is also value added to the Company through having an expanded footprint in a market that has strong growth potential.

Community National Bancorporation and Community NationalState Bank (continued)

 

On October 4, 2013,August 31, 2016, the Company finalizedacquired Community State Bank from Van Diest Investment Company.  CSB is headquartered in Ankeny, Iowa and is an Iowa-chartered bank that operates ten banking locations throughout the sale of certain assets and liabilitiesDes Moines metropolitan area.  The Company purchased 100% of the two Mason City, Iowa branchesoutstanding common stock of CNB. CSB for cash consideration of $80.0 million. 

The detailacquisition of CSB allowed the Company to expand its footprint into the Des Moines market.  CSB had an experienced and capable leadership team that was committed to leading the Company’s efforts in the Des Moines area.  CSB had demonstrated significant improvement in earnings and asset quality during the last three years.  Additionally, CSB had a strong core deposit base and retail franchise.  Although CSB already had strong earnings, the Company had identified several opportunities for enhanced future earnings performance.  With $581 million of assets acquired, the Company believed this acquisition was large enough to provide meaningful impact on the financial results, but was not too large to overstrain existing infrastructure.  Lastly, financial metrics related to the transaction were favorable, as measured by EPS accretion and earn-back of tangible book value dilution.

In connection with the acquisition, during the second quarter of 2016, the Company sold 1,215,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $24.75 per share, for net proceeds of $29.8 million, after deducting expenses. The shares were offered to institutional investors in a registered direct offering conducted without an underwriter or placement agent. The offering was a partial take-down of a previously filed shelf registration and closed on May 23, 2016.

Cash received from the common stock offering was used to help finance the purchase price of the acquisition.  Additionally, the Company drew $5.0 million on its $10.0 million revolving line of credit and fully funded its $30.0 million term facility.  Both of these facilities are described further in Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.  Cash dividends of $15.2 million from QCBT and CRBT were used to fund the remainder of the purchase price.

The Company accounted for the business combination under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805.  The Company recognized the full fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities sold,assumed at the acquisition date, net of applicable income tax effects. 

The excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.  This goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

The Company has several areas of specialization, including government guaranteed lending, C&I lending, interest rate swaps, leasing, wealth management, private banking and municipal bond offerings that will be offered in this new market, increasing future earnings potential.  There is also value added to the Company through having a footprint in a market that has strong growth potential.  Additionally, there are qualitative benefits gained through the addition of a new charter including better leverage of centralized operations and increased lending limits.  The experience and value of the personnel at CSB and their knowledge of the Des Moines MSA is also beneficial.

During 2018, 2017 and 2016, there was also $25 thousand, $198 thousand and $186 thousand, respectively, of nonaccretable discount that was recognized due to the repayment of PCI loans. 

Premises and equipment acquired with a fair value of $20.7 million includes ten branch locations with a fair value of $19.7 million, including a write-up of $8.3 million.  The fair value was determined with the assistance of a third party appraiser.  The buildings and building write-ups will be recognized in depreciation expense over 39 years. 

The Company recorded a core deposit intangible totaling $6.4 million which is the portion of the acquisition purchase price which represents the value assigned to the existing deposit base.  The core deposit intangible has a finite life and is amortized using an accelerated method over the estimated useful life of the deposits (estimated to be ten years).  See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

During 2016, the Company incurred $1.4 million of expenses related to the acquisition, comprised primarily of legal, accounting, and investment banking costs.  These acquisition costs are presented on sale,their own line within the consolidated statements of income.  Also during 2016, the Company incurred $1.0 million of post-acquisition expenses, comprised primarily of personnel costs, IT integration, and conversion costs. CSB results are included in the consolidated statements of income effective on the acquisition date.  For the period August 31, 2016 to December 31, 2016, CSB reported revenues of $11.4 million and net income of $2.1 million, which included $473 thousand of after tax acquisition costs. 

During the current year, the Company incurred $1.2 million of post-acquisition compensation, transition and integration costs, comprised entirely of a fee that was paid for a core processor conversion of CSB.

As of December 31,  2017, the Company did not hold general obligation or revenue bonds of any single issuer, the aggregate book or market value of which exceeded 10%5% of the Company’s stockholders’ equity. Of the general obligation and revenue bonds in the Company’s portfolio, the majority are unrated bonds that represent small, private issuances. All unrated bonds were underwritten according to loan underwriting standards and have an average risk rating of 2, indicating very high quality. Additionally, many of these bonds are funding essential municipal services (water, sewer, education, medical facilities).

The Company’s municipal securities are owned by each of the threefive charters, whose investment policies set forth limits for various subcategories within the municipal securities portfolio. Each charter is monitored individually and as of December 31, 2015,2018, all were well-within policy limitations approved by the board of directors. Policy limits are calculated as a percentage of total risk-based capital.

As of December 31, 2015,2018, the Company’s standard monitoring of its municipal securities portfolio had not uncovered any facts or circumstances resulting in significantly different credits ratings than those assigned by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization, or in the case of unrated bonds, the rating assigned using the credit underwriting standards.

**Management performs an evaluation of the estimated unguaranteed residual values of leased assets on an annual basis, at a minimum. The evaluation consists of discussions with reputable and current vendors and management’s expertise and understanding of the current states of particular industries to determine informal valuations of the equipment. As necessary and where available, management will utilize valuations by independent appraisers. The large majority of leases with residual values contain a lease options rider which requires the lessee to pay the residual value directly, finance the payment of the residual value, or extend the lease term to pay the residual value. In these cases, the residual value is protected and the risk of loss is minimal.

There were no losses related to residual values during the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013. At December 31, 2015,2018, the Company had 16nine leases remaining with residual values totaling $1,165,706$828 thousand that were not protected with a lease end options rider. At December 31, 2014,2017, the Company had 2710 leases remaining with residual values totaling $1,488,342approximately $930 thousand that were not protected with a lease end options rider. Management has performed specific evaluations of these unguaranteed residual values and determined that the valuations are appropriate.

There were no losses related to unguaranteed residual values during the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017, and 2016.

***  Includes residential real estate loans held for sale totaling $565,850$1.3 million and $553,000$645 thousand as of December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, respectively.

During 2016, the Company entered into a material related party transaction with an entity that is owned and controlled by a CRBT director.  That business was chosen as the general contractor for the remodel of the Waterloo branch.  The business was the original contractor for the branch and is recognized as a leader in Iowa and the Midwest market for the design and construction of financial services and professional office buildings.  Based on the entity’s expertise, its experience as the original designer/builder of the branch location and a decline to bid from two other contractors, management chose the entity as the general contractor.  Management determined that the bids received from the entity were at market rates.

On June 21, 2018, the Company entered into interest rate swaps to hedge against the risk of rising rates on its variable rate trust preferred securities.  The floating rate trust preferred securities are tied to 3-month LIBOR, and the interest expense.rate swaps utilize 3-month LIBOR, so the hedge is effective.  The interest rate swaps are designated as a cash flow hedge in accordance with ASC 815.  The details of the interest rate swaps are as follows:

Changes in the fair value related to the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges, are reported in noninterest income during the period of the change. As shown in the table above, $156$27 thousand and $30,212$80 thousand of incomeexpense from the change in fair value for the years ending December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, respectively, was due to ineffectiveness.

The Company has also entered into interest rate swap contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments.  These derivative contracts relate to transactions in which the Company enters into an interest rate swap with a customer while at the same time entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with a third part financial institution.  Because the Company acts as an intermediary for the customer, changes in the fair value of the underlying derivative contracts, for the most part, offset each other and do not significantly impact the Company’s results of operations.

Inherent in the overnight purchase agreements is a risk that the fair value of the collateral pledged on the agreements could decline below the amount obligated under our customer repurchase agreements. The Company considers this risk minimal. The Company monitors balances daily to ensure that collateral is sufficient to meet obligations. Additionally, the Company maintains an overcollateralized position that is sufficient to cover any minor interest rate movements.

The securities underlying the agreements as of December 31, 20152018 and 20142017 were under the Company'sCompany’s control in safekeeping at third-party financial institutions.

Inherent in the wholesale structured repurchase agreements is a risk that the fair value of the collateral pledged on the agreements could decline below the amount obligated under the agreements. The Company considers this risk minimal. The Company maintains an overcollateralized position that is sufficient to cover any minor interest rate movements.

Throughout 2016, the Company executed several balance sheet restructuring strategies in an effort to reduce reliance on wholesale funding.  These strategies will continue to be evaluated in the future.  A summary of prepayments of wholesale structured repurchase agreements related to these restructurings is summarized in the following table for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Note 12.     Common Stock Offering and Balance Sheet Restructuring

On May 13, 2015, the Company announced the closing of an underwritten public offering of 3,680,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $18.25 per share. The net proceeds to the Company, after deducting the underwriting discount and offering expenses, totaled $63.5 million. As a result of the capital raise, the Company’s regulatory capital ratios increased significantly. Additional information regarding regulatory capital is described in Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company utilized the proceeds from the common stock offering to restructure certain debt obligations and to bolster overall capital levels. Specifically, the Company repaid $15.3 million of holding company senior debt at an interest rate of 3.27%, and $2.7 million of Series A subordinated debt at an interest rate of 6.00%. Additionally, $85.5 million of FHLB advances and wholesale structured repurchase agreements at a weighted average interest rate of 4.36% were prepaid at QCBT and CRBT. As a result of this planned restructuring, the Company incurred $6.9 million (pre-tax) in losses for debt extinguishment that were recognized in the second quarter of 2015.

Of the $103.5 million in debt extinguishments, $63.5 million was funded with the proceeds from the common stock issuance. Approximately $27.7 million was funded through the maturity of low-yielding securities. Brokered certificates of deposits and overnight FHLB advances were utilized to fund the remaining $12.3 million. The weighted average interest rate on these new borrowings was approximately 0.90%.

This restructuring and deleveraging significantly reduced the wholesale borrowings portfolio of the Company, which includes FHLB advances, wholesale structured repurchase agreements, and brokered certificates of deposits. The table below presents the maturity schedule including weighted average cost for the Company’s combined wholesale borrowings portfolio.

Included in the unrecognized tax benefits liability at December 31, 20152018 are potential benefits of approximately $1,005,000$1.0 million that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate.

The liability for unrecognized tax benefits includes accrued interest for tax positions, which either do not meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold or where the tax benefit is measured at an amount less than the tax benefit claimed or expected to be claimed on an income tax return. At December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, accrued interest on uncertain tax positions was approximately $221,000$205 thousand and $260,000,$150 thousand, respectively. Estimated interest related to the underpayment of income taxes is classified as a component of “income taxes”tax expense” in the statements of income.

The Tax Act was enacted on December 22, 2017 and reduces the federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%. As a result, the Company revalued the deferred tax assets and liabilities to reflect the lower federal corporate tax rate, which resulted in the Company recognizing a benefit of $2.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2017. Additionally, while the Tax Act eliminated the corporate alternative minimum tax, it did preserve the alternative minimum tax credit and the usability.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Note 16. Regulatory Capital Requirements and Restrictions on Dividends

The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the subsidiary banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company and subsidiary banks’ financial statements.

Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the subsidiary banks must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the subsidiary banks to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total common equity Tier 1 and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average assets, each as defined by regulation. Management believes, as of December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, that the Company and the subsidiary banks met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

Under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, to be categorized as “well capitalized,” an institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, Tier 1 leverage and common equity Tier 1 ratios as set forth in the following tables. The Company and the subsidiary banks’ actual capital amounts and ratios as of December 31, 20152018 and 20142017 are also presented in the following table (dollars in thousands). As of December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, the subsidiary banks met the requirements to be “well capitalized”.

The Company’s ability to pay dividends to its stockholders may be affected by both general corporate law considerations and policies of the Federal Reserve applicable to bank holding companies.

The payment of dividends by any financial institution or its holding company is affected by the requirement to maintain adequate capital pursuant to applicable capital adequacy guidelines and regulations, and a financial institution generally is prohibited from paying any dividends if, following payment thereof, the institution would be undercapitalized. Notwithstanding the availability of funds for dividends, however, the Federal Reserve may prohibit the payment of any dividends by the subsidiary banks if the Federal Reserve determines such payment would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice.

The Company also has certain contractual restrictions on its ability to pay dividends. The Company has issued junior subordinated debentures in four private placements and assumed twothree issues of junior subordinated debentures in connection with the Community National acquisition.acquisitions. Under the terms of the debentures, the Company may be prohibited, under certain circumstances, from paying dividends on shares of its common stock. These circumstances did not exist at December 31, 20152018 or 2014.

Note 16.     Regulatory Capital Requirements and Restrictions on Dividends (continued)

In July 2013, the U.S. federal banking authorities approved the implementation of the Basel III regulatory capital reforms and issued rules effecting certain changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act.  The Basel III Rules are applicable to all U.S. banks that are subject to minimum capital requirements, as well as to bank and savings and loan holding companies other than “small bank holding companies” (generally bank holding companies with consolidated assets of less than $1 billion). 

2017.

The Basel III Rules not only increased most of the required minimum regulatory capital ratios, but they introduced a new Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratio and the concept of a capital conservation buffer.  Failure to maintain capital levels above the Basel III minimums may lead to restrictions on dividends, share buybacks, discretionary payments on Tier I instruments and discretionary bonus payouts.

The Basel III Rules also permit smaller banking organizations (including the Company and the subsidiary banks) to retain, through a one-time election, the existing treatment for AOCI, which excluded the effect of AOCI from regulatory capital.  The Company made this election in the first quarter of 2015.

On August 27, 2015, the Company filed a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3S‑3 with the SEC. This registration statement, declaredSEC on October 27, 2016, as amended on January 11, 2017. Declared effective by the SEC on October 5, 2015, will allowJanuary 31, 2017, the registration statement allows the Company to issueoffer and sell various types of securities, including common stock, preferred stock, debt securities and/or warrants, from time to time up to an aggregate amount of $100.0$100 million. The specific terms and prices of any securities offered pursuant to the securitiesregistration statement will be determined at the time of any future offering and described in a separate prospectus supplement, which would be filed with the SEC at the time of the particular offering, if any.

  In February 2019, the Company completed a subordinated notes offering.  See Note 23 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on this subordinated notes offering.

Note 18. Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the subsidiary banks make various commitments and incur certain contingent liabilities that are not presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.Consolidated Financial Statements. The commitments and contingent liabilities include various guarantees, commitments to extend credit, and standby letters of credit.

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 of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The subsidiary banks evaluate each customer'scustomer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the subsidiary banks upon extension of credit, is based upon management'smanagement’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, marketable securities, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the subsidiary banks to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements and, generally, have terms of one year or less. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The subsidiary banks hold collateral, as described above, supporting those commitments if deemed necessary. In the event the customer does not perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement with the third party, the subsidiary banks would be required to fund the commitments. The maximum potential amount of future payments the subsidiary banks could be required to make is represented by the contractual amount. If the commitment is funded, the subsidiary banks would be entitled to seek recovery from the customer. At December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, no amounts had been recorded as liabilities for the subsidiary banks’ potential obligations under these guarantees.

As of December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, commitments to extend credit aggregated $480,475,033$1.2 billion and $499,267,717,$791.6 million, respectively. As of December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, standby letters of credit aggregated $13,067,100$20.3 million and $12,896,428,$17.3 million, respectively. Management does not expect that all of these commitments will be funded.

The Company has also executed contracts for the sale of mortgage loans in the secondary market in the amount of $565,850$1.3 million and $553,000$645 thousand as of December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, respectively. These amounts are included in loans held for sale at the respective balance sheet dates.


QCR Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Note 18.     Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

Residential mortgage loans sold to investors in the secondary market are sold with varying recourse provisions. Essentially, all loan sales agreements require the repurchase of a mortgage loan by the seller in situations such as breach of representation, warranty, or covenant, untimely document delivery, false or misleading statements, failure to obtain certain certificates of insurance, unmarketability, etc. Certain loan sales agreements contain repurchase requirements based on payment-related defects that are defined in terms of the number of days/months since the purchase, the sequence number of the payment, and/or the number of days of payment delinquency. Based on the specific terms stated in the agreements of investors purchasing residential mortgage loans from the Company’s subsidiary banks, the Company had $524,400$12.4 million and $9,049,519$300 thousand of sold residential mortgage loans with recourse provisions still in effect at December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, respectively. The subsidiary banks did not repurchase any loans from secondary market investors under the terms of loans sales agreements during the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014,2018, 2017, and 2013.2016. In the opinion of management, the risk of recourse and the subsequent requirement of loan repurchase to the subsidiary banks is not significant, and accordingly no liabilities have been established related to such.

Aside from cash on-hand and in-vault, the majority of the Company'sCompany’s cash is maintained at upstream correspondent banks. The total amount of cash on deposit, certificates of deposit, and federal funds sold exceeded federal insured limits by approximately $101.0$52.6 million and $101.6$42.9 million as of December 31, 20152018 and 2014,2017, respectively. In the opinion of management, no material risk of loss exists due to the financial condition of the upstream correspondent banks.

Note 21. Fair Value

Accounting guidance on fair value measurements uses a hierarchy intended to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. This hierarchy includes three levels and is based upon the valuation techniques used to measure assets and liabilities. The three levels are as follows:

·

Level 1 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in markets;

·

Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and

·

Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis comprised the following at December 31, 20152018 and 2014:2017:

There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between Levels 1, 2, and 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the years ended December 31, 20152018 or 2014.

A small portion of the securities available for sale portfolio consists of common stock issued by various unrelated bank holding companies and mutual funds. The fair values used by the Company are obtained from an independent pricing service, which represent quoted market prices for the identical securities (Level 1 inputs).

The remainder of the securities available for sale portfolio consists of securities whereby the Company obtains fair values from an independent pricing service. The fair values are determined by pricing models that consider observable market data, such as interest rate volatilities, LIBOR yield curve, credit spreads and prices from market makers and live trading systems (Level 2 inputs).

Interest rate caps that are used for the purpose of hedging interest rate risk. See Note 67 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the details of these instruments. The fair values are determined by pricing models that consider observable market data for derivative instruments with similar structures (Level 2 inputs).

Interest rate swaps are executed for select commercial customers. See Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the detail of these instruments. The fair values are determined by comparing the contractual rate on the swap with the then-current market rate for the remaining term of the transaction (Level 2 inputs).

Interest rate swaps are also used for the purpose of hedging interest rate risk on junior subordinated debt.  See Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the details of these instruments. The fair values are determined by comparing the contract rate on the swap with the then-current market rate for the remaining term of the transaction (Level 2 inputs).

Certain financial assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis; that is, the assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment).

Assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis comprised the following at December 31, 20152018 and 2014:2017:

Impaired loans/leases are evaluated and valued at the time the loan/lease is identified as impaired, at the lower of cost or fair value, and are classified as a Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Fair value is measured based on the value of the collateral securing these loans/leases. Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets including equipment, inventory and/or accounts receivable and is determined based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers hired by the Company. Appraised and reported values may be discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business.

Other real estate owned in the table above consists of property acquired through foreclosures and settlements of loans. Property acquired is carried at the estimated fair value of the property, less disposal costs, and is classified as a Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value of the property is determined based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers hired by the Company. Appraised and reported values are discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the property.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Note 21.     Fair Value (continued)

 

The methodologies for estimating the fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis are discussed above. For certain financial assets and liabilities, carrying value approximates fair value due to the nature of the financial instrument. These instruments include: cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, interest-bearing deposits at financial institutions, non-maturity deposits, and short-term borrowings. The Company used the following methods and assumptions in estimating the fair value of the following instruments:

Securities held to maturity:The fair values are estimated using pricing models that consider certain observable market data and some observable inputs, such as rate and term.

Loans/leases receivable: The fair values for all types of loans/leases are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans/leases with similar terms to borrowers with similar credit quality. The fair value of loans held for sale is based on quoted market prices of similar loans sold in the secondary market.

Deposits: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits equal their carrying amounts, which represent the amount payable on demand. Fair values for time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on time deposits to a schedule of aggregate expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

FHLB advances and junior subordinated debentures: The fair value of these instruments is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on the Company's current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Other borrowings: The fair value for the wholesale repurchase agreements and fixed rate other borrowings is estimated using rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. The fair value for variable rate other borrowings is equal to its carrying value.

Commitments to extend credit: The fair value of these commitments is not material.

Note 22. Business Segment Information

 

Selected financial and descriptive information is required to be disclosed for reportable operating segments, applying a “management perspective” as the basis for identifying reportable segments. The management perspective is determined by the view that management takes of the segments within the Company when making operating decisions, allocating resources, and measuring performance. The segments of the Company have been defined by the structure of the Company’s internal organization, focusing on the financial information that the Company’s operating decision-makers routinely use to make decisions about operating matters.

The Company’s primary segment, Commercial Banking, is geographically divided by markets into the secondary segments which are the threefive subsidiary banks wholly-owned by the Company: QCBT, CRBT, CSB, RB&T and RB&T. CRBT includes CNB’s operations from acquisition date (May 13, 2013) forward.SFC Bank. Each of these secondary segments offer similar products and services, but are managed separately due to different pricing, product demand, and consumer markets. Each offers commercial, consumer, and mortgage loans and deposit services.

The Company’s Wealth Management segment represents trust and asset management and investment management and advisory services offered at the Company’s three subsidiary banks in aggregate. This segment generates income primarily from fees charged based on assets under administration for corporate and personal trusts, custodial services, and investments managed. No assets of the subsidiary banks have been allocated to the Wealth Management segment.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


 

Note 23. Acquisition of Noncontrolling Interest in m2 Lease FundsSubsequent Event: Subordinated Notes

 

On August 27, 2012, the Company’s largest subsidiary bank, QCBT, entered into an amendment to the operating agreement of m2 and purchased the remaining 20% noncontrolling interest in m2 for $4,501,442. The purchase price and related acquisition costs exceeded the book value by $2,133,417. This excess was reflected as a reduction in additional paid in capital on the Company’s consolidated financial statements until the final payout in 2015. The acquisition was structured in two payments with the initial payment of $1,653,755 made on September 11, 2012 and the final payment of $3,307,509 due in September 2015. QCBT calculated the present value of this future payment using a discount rate of 5% and recorded a resulting liability of $2,847,687. QCBT accreted the discount of $459,822 using the effective yield method over the three year period to the final payment date. Accretion totaled $80,820, $155,716 and $148,137 for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The liability related to the final payment due totaled $3,199,298 and $3,043,582 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The final payment made in 2015 eliminated any further liability.

In conjunction with the purchase agreement,February 12, 2019 the Company also entered intocompleted an agreement with the Chief Executive Officer and former 20% ownerunderwritten public offering of m2, whereby he was provided additional consideration equal to 20%$65.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the earnings of m2 for the period from September 2012 through the earlier of August 2015 or his separation from service. The payment under this arrangement was also due in September 2015. Because the payment was contingent upon future service, QCBT was accruing the liability and related compensation expense over the service period. Expense totaled $593,611, $701,634, $725,483 for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The liability related to this future payment totaled $1,622,832 and $921,198 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The final payment made in 2015 eliminated any further liability.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)13a‑15(e) and 15d – 15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2015.2018. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed and submitted under the Exchange Act was: (1) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures; and (2) recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f)13a‑15(f) and 15d-15(f)15d‑15(f) of the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting includes controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention of overriding controls. Accordingly, even effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control may vary over time.

The Company’s management has excluded SFC Bank and the Bates Companies from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, because they were acquired by the Company in the third and fourth quarter of 2018, respectively.

The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015.2018. Management’s assessment is based on the criteria established in theInternal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013 and was designed to provide reasonable assurance that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015.2018. Based on this assessment, management believes that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015.2018.

RSM US LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has issued an attestation report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015,2018, which is included on the following pages of this Form 10-K.10‑K.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that(a) (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;(b) (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and(c) (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

In our opinion, QCR Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established inInternal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013.


We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of QCR Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income (loss), changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015 and our report dated March 11, 2016 expressed an unqualified opinion.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

General

FDIC-insured institutions, their holding companies and their affiliates are extensively regulated under federal and state law. As a result, the growth and earnings performance of the Company may be affected not only by management decisions and general economic conditions, but also by the requirements of federal and state statutes and by the regulations and policies of various bank regulatory agencies, including the Iowa Superintendent,Division of Banking, the Illinois DFPR,IDFPR, the Missouri Division of Finance, the Federal Reserve, the FDIC and the CFPB. Furthermore, taxation laws administered by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities, accounting rules developed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, securities laws administered by the SEC and state securities authorities, and anti-money laundering laws enforced by the Treasury have an impact on the business of the Company. The effect of these statutes, regulations, regulatory policies and accounting rules are significant to the Company’s operations and results of the Company and its subsidiary banks, and the nature and extent of future legislative, regulatory or other changes affecting FDIC-insured institutions are impossible to predict with any certainty.

results.

Federal and state banking laws impose a comprehensive system of supervision, regulation and enforcement on the operations of FDIC-insured institutions, their holding companies and affiliates that is intended primarily for the protection of the FDIC-insured deposits and depositors of banks, rather than stockholders. These federal and state laws, and the regulations of the bank regulatory agencies issued under them, affect, among other things, the scope of the Company’s business, the kinds and amounts of investments banksthe Company and the Banks may make, reserve requirements, required capital levels relative to operations,assets, the nature and amount of collateral for loans, the establishment of branches, the ability to merge, consolidate and acquire, dealings with the Company’s and the Banks’ insiders and affiliates and the Company’s payment of dividends. In reaction to the last several years,global financial crisis and particularly following the passage of the Dodd Frank Act, the Company and the Bank have experienced heightened regulatory requirements and scrutiny following the global financial crisis and as a result of the Dodd-Frank Act.scrutiny. Although the reforms primarily targeted systemically important financial service providers, their influence filtered down in varying degrees to community banks over time and the reforms have caused the Company’s compliance and risk management processes, and the costs thereof, to increase.

This supervisory After the 2016 federal elections, momentum to decrease the regulatory burden on community banks gathered strength. In May 2018, the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection Act (the “Regulatory Relief Act”) was enacted to modify or remove certain financial reform rules and regulations.  While the Regulatory Relief Act maintains most of the regulatory structure established by the Dodd-Frank Act, it amends certain aspects of the regulatory framework subjects FDIC-insuredfor small depository institutions with assets of less than $10 billion, like the Company, and for large banks with assets of more than $50 billion.  Many of these changes are intended to result in meaningful regulatory relief for community banks and their holding companies, including new rules that may make the capital requirements less complex.  For a discussion of capital requirements, see “-The Role of Capital.” It also eliminated questions about the applicability of certain Dodd-Frank Act reforms to community bank systems, including relieving the Banks of any requirement to engage in mandatory stress tests or comply with the Volcker Rule’s complicated prohibitions on proprietary trading and ownership of private funds.  The Company believes these reforms are favorable to its operations, but the true impact remains difficult to predict until rulemaking is complete and the reforms are fully implemented.

The supervisory framework for U.S. banking organizations subjects banks and bank holding companies to regular examination by their respective regulatory agencies, which results in examination reports and ratings that are not publicly available and that can impact the conduct and growth of their business. These examinations consider not only compliance with applicable laws and regulations, but also capital levels, asset quality and risk, management ability and performance, earnings, liquidity, and various other factors. The regulatory agencies generally have broad discretion to impose restrictions and limitations on the operations of a regulated entity where the agencies determine, among other things, that such operations are unsafe or unsound, fail to comply with applicable law or are otherwise inconsistent with laws and regulations or with the supervisory policies of these agencies.  

regulations.

The following is a summary of the material elements of the supervisory and regulatory framework applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries,subsidiary banks, beginning with a discussion of the continuing regulatory emphasis on the Company’s capital levels. It does not describe all of the statutes, regulations and regulatory policies that apply, nor does it

146


restate all of the requirements of those that are described. The descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the particular statutory and regulatory provision.

Regulatory Emphasis onThe Role of Capital

Regulatory capital represents the net assets of a banking organization available to absorb losses. Because of the risks attendant to their business, FDIC-insured institutions are generally required to hold more capital than other businesses, which directly affects the Company’s earnings capabilities. AlthoughWhile capital has historically been one of the key measures of the financial health of both bank holding companies and banks, its role became fundamentally more important in the wake of the global financial crisis, as the banking regulators recognized that the amount and quality of capital held by banks prior to the crisis was insufficient to absorb losses during periods of severe stress. Certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act and Basel III, discussed below, establish strengthened capital standards for banking organizations, require more capital to be held in the form of common stockbanks and disallow certain funds from being included in capital determinations. These standards represent regulatory capital requirementsbank holding companies that are meaningfully more stringent than those in place previously.

Minimum Required Capital Levels.Banks have been required to hold minimum levels of capital based on guidelines established by the bank regulatory agencies since 1983. The minimums have been expressed in terms of ratios of capital divided by total assets. As discussed below, bank capital measures have become more sophisticated over the years and have focused more on the quality of capital and the risk of assets. Bank holding companies have historically had to comply with less stringent capital standards than their bank subsidiaries and have been able to raise capital with hybrid instruments such as trust preferred securities. The Dodd-Frank Act mandated that the Federal Reserve to establish minimum capital levels for holding companies on a consolidated basis as stringent as those required for FDIC-insured institutions. As a consequence, the components of holding company permanent capital known as “Tier 1 Capital” were restricted to those capital instruments that were considered Tier 1 Capital for FDIC-insured institutions. A result of this change is that the proceeds of hybrid instruments, such as trust preferred securities, are beingwere excluded from Tier 1 Capitalcapital over a phase-out period. However, if such securities were issued prior to May 19, 2010 by bank holding companies with less than $15 billion of assets, they may be retained, subject to certain restrictions. Because the Company has assets of less than $15 billion, the Company is able to maintain its trust preferred proceeds as Tier 1 Capitalcapital but the Company has to comply with new capital mandates in other respects and will not be able to raise Tier 1 Capitalcapital in the future through the issuance of trust preferred securities.


The capital standards for the Company and the Banks changed on January 1, 2015 to add the requirements of Basel III, discussed below. Theminimum capital standards effective prior to and including December 31, 2014 are:

A leverage requirement, consisting of a minimum ratio of Tier 1 Capital to total adjusted average quarterly assets of 3% for the most highly-rated banks with a minimum requirement of at least 4% for all others, and

A risk-based capital requirement, consisting of a minimum ratio of Total Capital to total risk-weighted assets of 8% and a minimum ratio of Tier 1 Capital to total risk-weighted assets of 4%.

For these purposes, “Tier 1 Capital” consists primarily of common stock, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus less intangible assets (other than certain loan servicing rights and purchased credit card relationships). Total Capital consists primarily of Tier 1 Capital plus “Tier 2 Capital,” which includes other non-permanent capital items, such as certain other debt and equity instruments that do not qualify as Tier 1 Capital, and each Bank’s allowance for loan losses, subject to a limitation of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets. Further, risk-weighted assets for the purpose of the risk-weighted ratio calculations are balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet exposures to which required risk weightings of 0% to 100% are applied.  

The Basel International Capital Accords.The risk-based capital guidelines described above arefor U.S. banks since 1989 were based upon the 1988 capital accord known as “Basel I” adopted by the international Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, a committee of central banks and bank supervisors that acts as the primary global standard-setter for prudential regulation, as implemented by the U.S. federal banking regulatorsbank regulatory agencies on an interagency basis. The accord recognized that bank assets for the purpose of the capital ratio calculations needed to be assigned risk weights (the theory being that riskier assets should require more capital) and that off-balance sheet exposures needed to be factored in the calculations. Basel I had a very simple formula for assigning risk weights to bank assets from 0% to 100% based on four categories. In 2008, the banking agencies collaboratively began to phase-in capital standards based on a second capital accord, referred to as “Basel II,” for large or “core” international banks (generally defined for U.S. purposes as having total assets of $250 billion or more, or consolidated foreign exposures of $10 billion or more) known as “advanced approaches” banks. The primary focus of Basel II was on the calculation of risk weights based on complex models developed by each advanced approaches bank. Because most banks were not subject to Basel II, the U.S. bank regulators worked to improve the risk sensitivity of Basel I standards without imposing the complexities of Basel II. This “standardized approach” increased the number of risk-weight categories and recognized risks well above the original 100% risk weight. It is institutionalized by the Dodd-Frank Act for all banking organizations, even for the advanced approaches banks, as a floor.

On September 12, 2010, the Group of Governors and Heads of Supervision, the oversight body of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, announced agreement on a strengthened set of capital requirements for banking organizations around the world, known as Basel III, to address deficiencies recognized in connection with the global financial crisis.  Because of Dodd-Frank Act requirements, Basel III essentially layers a new set of capital standards on the previously existing Basel I standards.

The Basel III Rule.In July 2013, the U.S. federal banking agencies approved the implementation of the Basel III regulatory capital reforms in pertinent part, and, at the same time, promulgated rules effecting certain changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act (the “Basel III Rule”). In contrast to capital requirements historically, which were in the form of guidelines, Basel III was released in the form of enforceable regulations by each of the regulatory agencies. The Basel III Rule is applicable to all banking organizations that are subject to minimum capital requirements, including federal and

147


state banks and savings and loan associations, as well as to bank and savings and loan holding companies, other than “small bank holding companies” (generally bank holding companies with consolidated assets of less than $1$3 billion which arethat do not publically traded companies)have securities registered with the SEC).

Banking organizations became subject to the Basel III Rule on January 1, 2015 and all parts of it were fully phased-in as of January 1, 2019.

The Basel III Rule notincreased the required quantity and quality of capital and for nearly every class of assets, it requires a more complex, detailed and calibrated assessment of risk and calculation of risk weight amounts.

Not only increaseddid the Basel III Rule increase most of the required minimum capital ratios effectivein effect prior to January 1, 2015, but it introduced the concept of Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, which consists primarily of common stock, related surplus (net of treasuryTreasury stock), retained earnings, and Common Equity Tier 1 minority interests subject to certain regulatory adjustments. The Basel III Rule also expandedchanged the definition of capital by establishing more stringent criteria that instruments must meet to be considered Additional Tier 1 Capital (Tier 1 Capital in addition to Common Equity)(primarily non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock that meets certain requirements) and Tier 2 Capital.Capital (primarily other types of preferred stock and subordinated debt, subject to limitations). A number of instruments that qualified as Tier 1 Capital under Basel I do not qualify, or their qualifications will change.changed. For example, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock, which qualified as simple Tier 1 Capital under Basel I, does not qualify as Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, but qualifies as Additional Tier 1 Capital. The Basel III Rule also constrained the inclusion of minority interests, mortgage-servicing assets, and deferred tax assets in capital and requires deductions from Common Equity Tier 1 Capital in the event that such assets exceed a certain percentage of a banking organization’sinstitution’s Common Equity Tier 1 Capital.

The Basel III Rule requiresrequired minimum capital ratios beginningas of January 1, 2015, as follows:

·

A new ratio of minimum Common Equity Tier 1 Capital equal to 4.5% of risk-weighted assets;


·

An increase in the minimum required amount of Tier 1 Capital from 4% to 6% of risk-weighted assets;

·

A continuation of the current minimum required amount of Total Capital (Tier 1 plus Tier 2) at 8% of risk-weighted assets; and

·

A minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 Capital to total adjusted quarterly average assets equal to 4% in all circumstances.

Not only didIn addition, institutions that seek the freedom to make capital requirements change butdistributions (including for dividends and repurchases of stock) and pay discretionary bonuses to executive officers without restriction must also maintain 2.5% in Common Equity Tier 1 Capital attributable to a capital conservation buffer fully phased-in as of January 1, 2019. The purpose of the risk weightings (or their methodologies) for bank assetsconservation buffer is to ensure that arebanking institutions maintain a buffer of capital that can be used to determineabsorb losses during periods of financial and economic stress. Factoring in the capitalconservation buffer increases the minimum ratios changed as well. For nearly every class of assets, the Basel III Rule requires a more complex, detaileddepicted above to 7% for Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, 8.5% for Tier 1 Capital and calibrated assessment of credit risk and calculation of risk weightings.

Banking organizations (except10.5% for large, internationally active banking organizations) became subject to the new rules on January 1, 2015. However, there are separate phase-in/phase-out periods for: (i) the capital conservation buffer; (ii) regulatory capital adjustments and deductions; (iii) nonqualifying capital instruments; and (iv) changes to the prompt corrective action rules. The phase-in periods commenced on January 1, 2016 and extend until 2019.

Total Capital.

Well-Capitalized Requirements.The ratios described above are minimum standards in order for banking organizations to be considered “adequately capitalized” under the Prompt Corrective Action rules discussed below.capitalized.” Bank regulatory agencies uniformly encourage banking organizationsbanks to hold more capital and be “well-capitalized” and, to that end, federal law and regulations provide various incentives for suchbanking organizations to maintain regulatory capital at levels in excess of minimum regulatory requirements. For example, a banking organization that is well-capitalized may: (i) qualify for exemptions from prior notice or application requirements otherwise applicable to certain types of activities; (ii) qualify for expedited processing of other required notices or applications; and (iii) accept, roll-over or renew brokered deposits. Higher capital levels could also be required if warranted by the particular circumstances or risk profiles of individual banking organizations. Moreover,For example, the Federal Reserve’s capital guidelines contemplate that additional capital may be required to take adequate account of, among other things, interest rate risk, or the risks posed by concentrations of credit, nontraditional activities or securities trading activities. Further, any banking organization experiencing or anticipating significant growth would be expected to maintain capital ratios, including tangible capital positions (i.e., Tier 1 Capital less all intangible assets), well above the minimum levels.

Under the capital regulations of the FDIC and Federal Reserve, in order to be well-capitalized,well‑capitalized, a banking organization must maintain:

·

A new Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratio to risk-weighted assets of 6.5% or more;

148


·

A minimum ratio of Tier 1 Capital to total risk-weighted assets of 8% or more (6% under Basel I);

·

A minimum ratio of Total Capital to total risk-weighted assets of 10% or more (the same as Basel I); and

·

A leverage ratio of Tier 1 Capital to total adjusted average quarterly average assets of 5% or greater.

In addition, banking organizations that seek the freedom to make capital distributions (including for dividends and repurchases of stock) and pay discretionary bonuses to executive officers without restriction must also maintain 2.5% in Common Equity Tier 1 attributable to a capital conservation buffer to be phased in over three years beginning in 2016. The purpose of the conservation buffer is to ensure that banking organizations maintain a buffer of capital that can be used to absorb losses during periods of financial and economic stress. Factoring in the fully phased-in conservation buffer increases the minimum ratios depicted above to:

7% for Common Equity Tier 1,

8.5% for Tier 1 Capital and

10.5% for Total Capital.

It is possible under the Basel III Rule to be well-capitalized while remaining out of compliance with the capital conservation buffer.

Prompt Corrective Action.An FDIC-insured institution’s capital playsThe concept of an important role in connection withinstitution being “well-capitalized” is a part of a regulatory enforcement as well. This regime applies to FDIC-insured institutions, not holding companies, and provides escalating powers to bank regulatory agencies as a bank’s capital diminishes. Federal lawthat provides the federal banking regulators with broad power to take prompt corrective action to resolve the problems of undercapitalized institutions.institutions based on the capital level of each particular institution. The extent of the regulators’ powers depends on whether the institution in question is “adequately capitalized,” “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized” or “critically undercapitalized,” in each case as defined by regulation. Depending upon the capital category to which an institution is assigned, the regulators’ corrective powers include: (i) requiring the institution to submit a capital restoration plan; (ii) limiting the institution’s asset growth and restricting its activities; (iii) requiring the institution to issue additional capital stock (including additional voting stock) or to sell itself; (iv) restricting transactions between the institution and its affiliates; (v) restricting the interest rate that the institution may pay on deposits; (vi) ordering a new election of directors of the institution; (vii) requiring dismissal ofthat senior executive officers or directors;directors be dismissed; (viii) prohibiting the institution from accepting deposits from correspondent banks; (ix) requiring the institution to divest certain subsidiaries; (x) prohibiting the payment of principal or interest on subordinated debt; and (xi) ultimately, appointing a receiver for the institution.

The Potential for Community Bank Capital Simplification.  Community banks have long raised concerns with bank regulators about the regulatory burden, complexity, and costs associated with certain provisions of the Basel III Rule.  In response, Congress provided a potential Basel III “off-ramp” for institutions, like the Company, with total consolidated assets of less than $10 billion.  Section 201 of the Regulatory Relief Act instructed the federal banking regulators to establish a single CBLR of between 8% and 10%.  On November 21, 2018, the agencies proposed setting the CBLR at 9% of tangible equity to total assets for a qualifying bank to be well-capitalized.  Under the proposal, a community bank organization would be eligible to elect the new framework if it has less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets, limited amounts of certain assets and off-balance sheet exposures, and a CBLR greater than 9%.  The electing institution would not be required to calculate the existing risk-based and leverage capital requirements of the Basel III Rule and would not need to risk weight its assets for purposes of capital calculations.

The Company is in the process of considering the Federal Reserve’s CBLR proposal and will await the final regulation to determine whether it will elect the framework.

Regulation and Supervision of the Company

General.The Company, as the sole stockholder of the Banks, is a bank holding company. As a bank holding company, the Company is registered with, and is subject to regulation supervision and enforcement by, the Federal Reserve under the BHCA. In accordance with Federal Reserve policy, and as now codified by the Dodd-Frank Act, theThe Company is legally obligated to act as a source of financial strength to the Banks and to commit resources to support the Banks in circumstances where the Company might not otherwise do so. Under the BHCA, the Company is subject to periodic examination by the Federal Reserve. The Company is required to file with the Federal Reserve periodic reports of the Company’s operations and such additional information regarding the Company and its subsidiaries as the Federal Reserve may require.

Acquisitions, Activities and Change in ControlFinancial Holding Company Election.The primary purpose of a bank holding company is to control and manage banks.Thebanks. The BHCA generally requires the prior approval of the Federal Reserve for any merger involving a bank holding company or any acquisition by a bank holding company of another bank or bank holding

149


company. Subject to certain conditions (including deposit concentration limits established by the BHCA and the Dodd-Frank Act)BHCA), the Federal Reserve may allow a bank holding company to acquire banks located in any state of the United States. In approving interstate acquisitions, the Federal Reserve is required to give effect to applicable state law limitations on the aggregate amount of deposits that may be held by the acquiring bank holding company and its FDIC-insured institution affiliates in the state in which the target bank is located (provided that those limits do not discriminate against out-of-state depository institutions or their holding companies) and state laws that require that the target bank have been in existence for a minimum period of time (not to exceed five years) before being acquired by an out-of-state bank holding company. Furthermore, in accordance with the Dodd-Frank Act, bank holding companies must be well-capitalized and well-managed in order to effect interstate mergers or acquisitions. For a discussion of the capital requirements, see “Regulatory Emphasis on“—The Role of  Capital” above.

The BHCA generally prohibits the Company from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting shares of any company that is not a bank and from engaging in any business other than that of banking, managing and controlling banks or furnishing services to banks and their subsidiaries. This general prohibition is subject to a number of exceptions. The principal exception allows bank holding companies to engage in, and to own shares of companies engaged in, certain businesses found by the Federal Reserve prior to November 11, 1999 to be “so closely related to banking ... as to be a proper incident thereto.” This authority would permitpermits the Company to engage in a variety of banking-related businesses, including the ownership and operation of a savings association, or any entity engaged in consumer finance, equipment leasing, the operation of a computer service bureau (including software development) and mortgage banking and brokerage services. The BHCA does not place territorial restrictions on the domestic activities of nonbank subsidiaries of bank holding companies.

The Company operates Bates Financial Advisors, Inc., a registered investment advisor, and Bates Securities, Inc., a broker-dealer, as nonbanking subsidiaries under this authority.

Additionally, bank holding companies that meet certain eligibility requirements prescribed by the BHCA and elect to operate as financial holding companies may engage in, or own shares in companies engaged in, a wider range of nonbanking activities, including securities and insurance underwriting and sales, merchant banking and any other activity that the Federal Reserve, in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury, determines by regulation or order is financial in nature or incidental to any such financial activity or that the Federal Reserve determines by order to be complementary to any such financial activity and does not pose a substantial risk to the safety or soundness of depositoryFDIC-insured institutions or the financial system generally. The Company does not currentlyhas elected to operate as a financial holding company.

In order to maintain its status as a financial holding company, the Company and the Banks must be well-capitalized, well-managed, and the Banks must have a least a satisfactory CRA rating. If the Federal Reserve determines that a financial holding company is not well-capitalized or well-managed, the Company has a period of time in which to achieve compliance, but during the period of noncompliance, the Federal Reserve may place any limitations on the Company it believes to be appropriate. Furthermore, if the Federal Reserve determines that a financial holding company’s subsidiary bank has not received a satisfactory CRA rating, that company will not be able to commence any new financial activities or acquire a company that engages in such activities.

Change in Control.    Federal law also prohibits any person or company from acquiring “control” of an FDIC-insured depository institution or its holding company without prior notice to the appropriate federal bank regulator. “Control” is conclusively presumed to exist upon the acquisition of 25% or more of the outstanding voting securities of a bank or bank holding company, but may arise under certain circumstances between 10% and 24.99% ownership.


Capital Requirements.Requirements. Bank holding companies are required to maintain capital in accordance with Federal Reserve capital adequacy requirements, as impacted by the Dodd-Frank Act and Basel III.requirements. For a discussion of capital requirements, see “—Regulatory Emphasis onThe Role of Capital” above.

Small Business Lending Fund and CPP Redemption.Under the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010, the Treasury established a SBLF, a $30 billion fund that encouraged lending to small businesses by providing capital to qualified community banks with assets of less than $10 billion. The Company applied for the SBLF program, was accepted, and on September 15, 2011, entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the Treasury, pursuant to which it issued and sold to the Treasury 40,090 shares of its Senior Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series F (the “Series F Preferred Stock”), having a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (the “Liquidation Amount”), for aggregate proceeds of $40,090,000. On the same date, the Company redeemed from the Treasury the Preferred Stock issued under the CPP. As a result of its redemption of the Treasury’s Preferred Stock, the Company was no longer subject to the limits on executive compensation and other restrictions stipulated under the CPP. The Company also repurchased the warrant issued to the Treasury in November of 2011 for an aggregate purchase price of $1.1 million.

On June 30, 2014, the Company redeemed the remaining 14,867 shares of the Series F Preferred Stock from the Treasury for an aggregate redemption amount of $14,823,922, plus unpaid dividends to the date of redemption of $373,869. Previously, on June 29, 2012, the Company redeemed 10,223 shares of Series F Preferred Stock and on March 31, 2014, the Company redeemed an additional 15,000 shares.

Dividend Payments.The Company’s ability to pay dividends to its stockholders may be affected by both general corporate law considerations and policies of the Federal Reserve applicable to bank holding companies.As a Delaware corporation, the Company is subject to the limitations of the DGCL, which allow the Company to pay dividends only out of its surplus (as defined and computed in accordance with the provisions of the DGCL) or if the Company has no such surplus, out of its net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared and/or the preceding fiscal year. In addition, under the Basel III Rule, institutions that seek the freedom to pay dividends will have to maintain 2.5% in Common Equity Tier 1 attributable to the capital conservation buffer to be phased in over three years beginning in 2016. See “—Regulatory Emphasis on Capital” above.

As a general matter, the Federal Reserve has indicated that the board of directors of a bank holding company should eliminate, defer or significantly reduce dividends to stockholders if: (i) the company’s net income available to

150


stockholders for the past four quarters, net of dividends previously paid during that period, is not sufficient to fully fund the dividends; (ii) the prospective rate of earnings retention is inconsistent with the company’s capital needs and overall current and prospective financial condition; or (iii) the company will not meet, or is in danger of not meeting, its minimum regulatory capital adequacy ratios. The Federal Reserve also possesses enforcement powers over bank holding companies and their non-banknonbank subsidiaries to prevent or remedy actions that represent unsafe or unsound practices or violations of applicable statutes and regulations. Among these powers is the ability to proscribe the payment of dividends by banks and bank holding companies.

In addition, under the Basel III Rule, institutions that seek the freedom to pay dividends have to maintain 2.5% in Common Equity Tier 1 Capital attributable to the capital conservation buffer. See “—The Role of Capital” above.

Incentive Compensation. There have been a number of developments in recent years focused on incentive compensation plans sponsored by bank holding companies and banks, reflecting recognition by the bank regulatory agencies and Congress that flawed incentive compensation practices in the financial industry were one of many factors contributing to the global financial crisis. Layered on top of that are the abuses in the headlines dealing with product cross-selling incentive plans. The result is interagency guidance on sound incentive compensation practices.

The interagency guidance recognized three core principles. Effective incentive plans should: (i) provide employees incentives that appropriately balance risk and reward; (ii) be compatible with effective controls and risk-management; and (iii) be supported by strong corporate governance, including active and effective oversight by the organization’s board of directors. Much of the guidance addresses large banking organizations and, because of the size and complexity of their operations, the regulators expect those organizations to maintain systematic and formalized policies, procedures, and systems for ensuring that the incentive compensation arrangements for all executive and non-executive employees covered by this guidance are identified and reviewed, and appropriately balance risks and rewards. Smaller banking organizations like the Company that use incentive compensation arrangements are expected to be less extensive, formalized, and detailed than those of the larger banks.

Monetary Policy.The monetary policy of the Federal Reserve has a significant effect on the operating results of financial or bank holding companies and their subsidiaries. Among the tools available to the Federal Reserve to affect the money supply are open market transactions in U.S. government securities, changes in the discount rate on bank borrowings and changes in reserve requirements against bank deposits. These means are used in varying combinations to influence overall growth and distribution of bank loans, investments and deposits, and their use may affect interest rates charged on loans or paid on deposits.

Federal Securities Regulation.Regulation. The Company’s common stock is registered with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Exchange Act. Consequently, the Company is subject to the information, proxy solicitation, insider trading and other restrictions and requirements of the SEC under the Exchange Act.

Corporate Governance.The Dodd-Frank Act addressed many investor protection, corporate governance and executive compensation matters that will affect most U.S. publicly traded companies. The Dodd-FrankDodd Frank Act increased stockholder influence over boards of directors by requiring companies to give stockholders a non-bindingnonbinding vote on executive compensation and so-called “golden parachute” payments, and authorizing the SEC to promulgate rules that would allow stockholders to nominate and solicit voters for their own candidates using a company’s proxy materials. The legislation also directed the Federal Reserve to promulgate rules prohibiting excessive compensation paid to executives of bank holding companies, regardless of whether such companies are publicly traded.


Supervision and Regulation of the Banks

General.The Company owns threefive subsidiary banks: QCBT, CRBT and CRBTCSB are chartered under Iowa law (collectively, the “Iowa Banks”) and RB&T is chartered under Illinois law. SFC Bank is chartered under Missouri law. The deposit accounts of the Banks are insured by the FDIC’s DIF to the maximum extent provided under federal law and FDIC regulations. The Banksregulations, currently $250,000 per insured depositor category. All five of the Company’s subsidiary banks are also  members of the Federal Reserve System (“member banks”).  QCBT owns QCIA, a registered investment advisor, as a wholly-owned subsidiary.

151


As Iowa-chartered, FDIC-insured member banks, the Iowa Banks are subject to the examination, supervision, reporting and enforcement requirements of the Iowa Superintendent,Division of Banking, as the chartering authority for Iowa banks. As an Illinois-chartered, FDIC-insured member bank, RB&T is subject to the examination, supervision, reporting and enforcement requirements of the DFPR,IDFPR, as the chartering authority for Illinois banks. As a Missouri-chartered, FDIC-insured bank, SFC Bank is subject to the examination, supervision, reporting and enforcement requirements of the Missouri Division of Finance, as the chartering authority for Missouri banks.  The Banks are also subject to the examination, reporting and enforcement requirements of the Federal Reserve, as the primary federal regulator of member banks. In addition, the FDIC, as administrator of the DIF, has regulatory authority over the Banks.

Deposit Insurance.As FDIC-insured institutions, the Banks are required to pay deposit insurance premium assessments to the FDIC. The FDIC has adopted a risk-based assessment system whereby FDIC-insured institutions pay insurance premiums at rates based on their risk classification. An institution’s risk classification is assignedFor institutions like the Banks that are not considered large and highly complex banking organizations, assessments are now based on its capital levelsexamination ratings and the level of supervisory concern the institution poses to the regulators.   For deposit insurance assessment purposes, an FDIC-insured institution is placed in one of four risk categories each quarter. An institution’s assessment is determined by multiplying its assessment rate by its assessment base.financial ratios. The total base assessment rates currently range from 2.51.5 basis points to 4530 basis points. The assessment base is calculated using average consolidated total assets minus average tangible equity. At least semi-annually, the FDIC will updateupdates its loss and income projections for the DIF and, if needed, will increaseincreases or decreasedecreases the assessment rates, following notice and comment on proposed rulemaking.

Amendments to the Federal Deposit Insurance Act revised the The assessment base against which an FDIC-insured institution’s deposit insurance premiums paid to the DIF arehas been calculated to besince effectiveness of the Dodd-Frank Act based on its average consolidated total assets less its average tangible equity. This changemethod shifted the burden of deposit insurance premiums toward those large depository institutions that rely on funding sources other than U.S. deposits.  Additionally,

The reserve ratio is the FDIC insurance fund balance divided by estimated insured deposits. The Dodd-Frank Act altered the minimum designated reserve ratio of the DIF, increasing the minimum from 1.15% to 1.35% of the estimated amount of total insured deposits, and eliminating the requirement that the FDIC pay dividends to FDIC-insured institutions. In lieu of dividends, the FDIC has adopted progressively lower assessment rate schedules that will take effectinstitutions when the reserve ratio exceeds 1.15%certain thresholds. The reserve ratio reached 1.36% on September 30, 2018. (most recent available), 2%, and 2.5%. As a consequence, premiums will decrease onceexceeding the 1.15% threshold is exceeded.statutory required minimum reserve ratio of 1.35%. The FDIC has until September 3, 2020will provide assessment credits to meetinsured depository institutions, like the 1.35%Banks, with total consolidated assets of less than $10 billion for the portion of their regular assessments that contribute to growth in the reserve ratio target. Several of these provisions could increasebetween 1.15% and 1.35%. The FDIC will apply the Bank’s FDICcredits each quarter that the reserve ratio is at least 1.38% to offset the regular deposit insurance premiums. 

The Dodd-Frank Act also permanently established the maximum amountassessments of deposit insurance for banks, savings institutions and credit unions to $250,000 per insured depositor.

with credits.

FICO Assessments.In addition to paying basic deposit insurance assessments, FDIC-insured institutions must pay FICO assessments. FICO is a mixed-ownership governmental corporation chartered by the former Federal Home Loan Bank Board pursuant to the Competitive Equality Banking Act of 1987 to function as a financing vehicle for the recapitalization of the former Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation. FICO issued 30-year30‑year noncallable bonds of approximately $8.1 billion that mature in 20172018 through 2019. FICO’s authority to issue bonds ended on December 12, 1991. Since 1996, federal legislation has required that all FDIC-insured institutions pay assessments to cover interest payments on FICO’s outstanding obligations. The FICO assessment rate is adjusted quarterly and for the fourth quarter of 20152018 was 0.60 basis points (6032 cents per $100 dollars of assessable deposits).deposits.

Supervisory Assessments.Each of the Banks is required to pay supervisory assessments to its respective state banking regulator to fund the operations of that agency. The amount of the assessment payable by each Bank is calculated on the basis of that Bank’s total assets. During the year ended December 13, 2015,31, 2018, the Iowa Banks paid supervisory assessments to the Iowa SuperintendentDivision of Banking totaling $179,567$288 thousand and RB&T paid supervisory assessments to the DFPRIDFPR totaling $47,651.$42 thousand.  SFC Bank paid supervisory assessments to the Missouri Division of Finance totaling $47 thousand.

Capital Requirements.Banks are generally required to maintain capital levels in excess of other businesses. For a discussion of capital requirements, see “—Regulatory Emphasis onThe Role of Capital” above.


Liquidity Requirements.Liquidity is a measure of the ability and ease with which bank assets may be converted to cash. Liquid assets are those that can be converted to cash quickly if needed to meet financial obligations. To remain viable, FDIC-insured institutions must have enough liquid assets to meet their near-term obligations, such as withdrawals by depositors. Because the global financial crisis was in part a liquidity crisis, Basel III also includedincludes a liquidity framework that requires FDIC-insured institutions to measure their liquidity against specific liquidity tests. One test, referred to asthe LCR, is designed to ensure that the banking entity has an adequate stock of unencumbered high-quality liquid assets that

152


can be converted easily and immediately in private markets into cash to meet liquidity needs for a 30-calendar30‑calendar day liquidity stress scenario. The other test, known as the NSFR, is designed to promote more medium- and long-term funding of the assets and activities of FDIC-insured institutions over a one-year horizon. These tests provide an incentive for banking organizationsbanks and holding companies to increase their holdings in Treasury securities and other sovereign debt as a component of assets, increase the use of long-term debt as a funding source and rely on stable funding like core deposits (in lieu of brokered deposits).

In addition to liquidity guidelines already in place, the U.S.federal bank regulatory agencies implemented the Basel III LCR in September 2014, which requires large financial firms to hold levels of liquid assets sufficient to protect against constraints on their funding during times of financial turmoil.turmoil, and in 2016 proposed implementation of the NSFR. While the LCR only appliesthese rules do not, and will not, apply to the largest banking organizations in the country, certain elements are expectedBanks, they continue to filter down to all insured depository institutions. The Company and the Banks are reviewingreview their liquidity risk management policies in light of the LCR and NSFR.

developments.

Stress Testing. A stress testis an analysis or simulation designed to determine the ability of a given FDIC-insured institution to deal with an economic crisis. In October 2012, U.S. bank regulators unveiled new rules mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act that require the largest U.S. banks to undergo stress tests twice per year, once internally and once conducted by the regulators, and began recommending portfolio stress testing as a sound risk management practice for community banks. Although stress tests are not officially required for banks with less than $10 billion in assets, they have become part of annual regulatory exams even for banks small enough to be officially exempted from the process. The bank regulatory agencies now recommend stress testing as means to identify and quantify loan portfolio risk and the Banks have begun the process.

Liability of Commonly Controlled Institutions.Under federal law, institutions insured by the FDIC may be liable for any loss incurred by, or reasonably expected to be incurred by, the FDIC in connection with the default of commonly controlled FDIC-insured depository institutions or any assistance provided by the FDIC to commonly controlled FDIC-insured depository institutions in danger of default. Because the Company controls each of the Banks, the Banks are commonly-controlled for purposes of these provisions of federal law.

Dividend Payments.The primary source of funds for the Company is dividends from the Banks. In general, the Banks may only pay dividends either out of their historical net income after any required transfers to surplus or reserves have been made or out of their retained earnings. The Federal Reserve Act also imposes limitations on the amount of dividends that may be paid by state member banks, such as the Banks. Without prior Federal Reserve approval, a state member bank may not pay dividends in any calendar year that, in the aggregate, exceed the bank’s calendar year-to-date net income plus the bank’s retained net income for the two preceding calendar years.

The payment of dividends by any FDIC-insured institution is affected by the requirement to maintain adequate capital pursuant to applicable capital adequacy guidelines and regulations, and an FDIC-insured institution generally is prohibited from paying any dividends if, following payment thereof, the institution would be undercapitalized. As described above, each of the Banks exceeded its minimum capital requirements under applicable guidelines as of December 13, 2015.31, 2018. Notwithstanding the availability of funds for dividends, however, the Federal Reserve, DFPR andthe FDIC, the IDFPR, the Iowa SuperintendentDivision of Banking or the Missouri Division of Finance, as applicable, may prohibit the payment of dividends by one of the Banks if it determines such payment would constitute an unsafe or unsound practice. In addition, under the Basel III Rule, institutions that seek the freedom to pay dividends will have to maintain 2.5% in Common Equity Tier 1 Capital attributable to the capital conservation buffer to be phased in over three years beginning in 2016.buffer. See “—Regulatory Emphasis onThe Role of Capital” above.

State Bank Investments and Activities. The Banks are permitted to make investments and engage in activities directly or through subsidiaries as authorized by Illinois, Iowa and Missouri law, as applicable. However, under federal law and FDIC regulations, FDIC-insured state banks are prohibited, subject to certain exceptions, from making or retaining equity investments of a type, or in an amount, that are not permissible for a national bank. Federal law and FDIC regulations also prohibit FDIC-insured state banks and their subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions, from engaging as principal in any activity that is not permitted for a national bank unless the bank meets, and continues to meet, its minimum regulatory capital requirements and the FDIC determines that the activity would not pose a significant risk to the DIF. These restrictions have not had, and are not currently expected to have, a material impact on the operations of the Banks.

Insider Transactions.The Banks are subject to certain restrictions imposed by federal law on “covered transactions” between each Bank and its “affiliates.” The Company is an affiliate of the Banks for purposes of these restrictions, and covered transactions subject to the restrictions include extensions of credit to the Company, investments in the stock or other securities of the Company and the acceptance of the stock or other securities of the Company as collateral for loans made by any of the Banks. The Dodd-Frank Act enhancesenhanced the requirements for certain transactions with affiliates, as of July 21, 2011, including an expansion of the definition of “covered transactions” and an increase in the amount of time for which collateral requirements regarding covered transactions must be maintained.

153


LimitationsCertain limitations and reporting requirements are also placed on extensions of credit by each Bank to its directors and officers, to directors and officers of the Company and its subsidiaries, to principal stockholders of the Company and to “related interests” of such directors, officers and principal stockholders. In addition, federal law and regulations may affect the terms upon which any person who is a director or officer of the Company or the Banks, or a principal stockholder of the Company, may obtain credit from banks with which any of the Banks maintains a correspondent relationship.


Safety and Soundness Standards/Risk Management.The federal banking agencies have adopted guidelines that establish operational and managerial standards to promote the safety and soundness of federally insured depositoryFDIC-insured institutions. The guidelines set forth standards forapply to internal controls, information systems, internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth, compensation, fees and benefits, asset quality and earnings.

In general, the safety and soundness guidelinesstandards prescribe the goals to be achieved in each area, and each FDIC-insured institution is responsible for establishing its own procedures to achieve those goals. IfWhile regulatory standards do not have the force of law, if an FDIC-insured institution fails to comply with any of the standards set forthoperates in the guidelines,an unsafe and unsound manner, the FDIC-insured institution’s primary federal regulator may require the FDIC-insured institution to submit a plan for achieving and maintaining compliance. If an FDIC-insured institution fails to submit an acceptable compliance plan, or fails in any material respect to implement a compliance plan that has been accepted by its primary federal regulator, the regulator is required to issue an order directing the FDIC-insured institution to cure the deficiency. Until the deficiency cited in the regulator’s order is cured, the regulator may restrict the FDIC-insured institution’s rate of growth, require the FDIC-insured institution to increase its capital, restrict the rates the FDIC-insured institution pays on deposits or require the FDIC-insured institution to take any action the regulator deems appropriate under the circumstances. Noncompliance with the standards established by the safety and soundness guidelines may also constitute grounds for other enforcement action by the federal bank regulatory agencies, including cease and desist orders and civil money penalty assessments.

During the past decade, the bank regulatory agencies have increasingly emphasized the importance of sound risk management processes and strong internal controls when evaluating the activities of the FDIC-insured institutions they supervise. Properly managing risks has been identified as critical to the conduct of safe and sound banking activities and has become even more important as new technologies, product innovation, and the size and speed of financial transactions have changed the nature of banking markets. The agencies have identified a spectrum of risks facing a banking institution including, but not limited to, credit, market, liquidity, operational, legal, and reputational risk. In particular, recent regulatory pronouncements have focused on operational risk, which arises from the potential that inadequate information systems, operational problems, breaches in internal controls, fraud, or unforeseen catastrophes will result in unexpected losses. New products and services, third-party risk management and cybersecurity are critical sources of operational risk that FDIC-insured institutions are expected to address in the current environment. Each Bank is expected to have active board and senior management oversight; adequate policies, procedures, and limits; adequate risk measurement, monitoring, and management information systems; and comprehensive internal controls.

Branching Authority.The Iowa Banks have the authority under Iowa law to establish branches anywhere in the State of Iowa, subject to receipt of all required regulatory approvals. In 1997, the Company formed a de novo Illinois bank that was merged into QCBT, resulting in QCBT establishing a branch office in Illinois. Under Illinois law, QCBT may continue to establish offices in Illinois to the same extent permitted for an Illinois bank (subject to certain conditions, including certain regulatory notice requirements). Similarly, RB&T has the authority under Illinois law to establish branches anywhere in the State of Illinois, subject to receipt of all required regulatory approvals.  SFC Bank has the authority under Missouri law to establish branches anywhere in the State of Missouri, subject to receipt of all required regulatory approvals.

Federal law permits state and national banks to merge with banks in other states subject to: (i) regulatory approval; (ii) federal and state deposit concentration limits; and (iii) state law limitations requiring the merging bank to have been in existence for a minimum period of time (not to exceed five years) prior to the merger. The establishment ofDodd-Frank Act permits well-capitalized and well-managed banks to establish new interstate branches or the acquisition ofacquire individual branches of a bank in another state (rather than the acquisition of an out-of-state bank in its entirety) has historically been permitted only in those states the laws of which expressly authorize such expansion. The Dodd-Frank Act permits well-capitalized and well-managed banks to establish new branches across state lines without these impediments.

State Bank Investments and Activities. The Banks are permitted to make investments and engage in activities directly or through subsidiaries as authorized by Iowa or Illinois law, as applicable. However, under federal law, FDIC-insured state banks are prohibited, subject to certain exceptions, from making or retaining equity investments of a type, or in an amount, that are not permissible for a national bank. Federal law also prohibits FDIC-insured state banks and their subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions, from engaging as principal in any activity that is not permitted for a national bank unless the bank meets, and continues to meet, its minimum regulatory capital requirements and the FDIC determines that the activity would not pose a significant risk to the DIF. These restrictions have not had, and are not currently expected to have, a material impact on the operations of the Banks.


Transaction Account Reserves.Federal Reserve regulations require FDIC-insured institutions to maintain reserves against their transaction accounts (primarily NOW and regular checking accounts). For 2016:2019: the first $15.2$16.3 million of otherwise reservable balances are exempt from reserves and have azero percent zero-percent reserve requirement; for

154


transaction accounts aggregating more than $15.2between $16.3 million to $110.2$124.2 million, the reserve requirement is 3% of totalthose transaction accounts;account balances; and for net transaction accounts in excess of $110.2$124.2 million, the reserve requirement is 3% up to $110.2 million plus 10% of the aggregate amount of total transaction accountsaccount balances in excess of $110.2$124.2 million. These reserve requirements are subject to annual adjustment by the Federal Reserve.

Federal Home Loan Bank System.The Banks are each a member of the FHLB, which serves as a central credit facility for its members. The FHLB is funded primarily from proceeds from the sale of obligations of the FHLB system. It makes loans to member banks in the form of FHLB advances. All advances from the FHLB are required to be fully collateralized as determined by the FHLB.

Community Reinvestment Act Requirements.The Community Reinvestment Act requires the Banks to have a continuing and affirmative obligation in a safe and sound manner to help meet the credit needs of the entire community, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. Federal regulators regularly assess each Bank’s record of meeting the credit needs of its communities. Applications for additional acquisitions would be affected by the evaluation of the Bank’s effectiveness in meeting its Community Reinvestment Act requirements.

Anti-Money Laundering.The USA Patriot Act along with AML-BSA, areis designed to deny terrorists and criminals the ability to obtain access to the U.S. financial system and has significant implications for FDIC-insured institutions, brokers, dealers and other businesses involved in the transfer of money. The laws mandateUSA Patriot Act mandates financial services companies to have policies and procedures with respect to measures designed to address any or all of the following matters: (i) customer identification and ongoing due diligenceprograms; (ii) money laundering; (iii) terrorist financing; (iv) identifying and reporting suspicious activities and currency transactions; (v) currency crimes; and (vi) cooperation amongbetween FDIC-insured institutions and law enforcement authorities.

Privacy and Cybersecurity.  The Banks are subject to many U.S. federal and state laws and regulations governing requirements for maintaining policies and procedures to protect non-public confidential information of their customers.  These laws require the Banks to periodically disclose their privacy policies and practices relating to sharing such information and permit consumers to opt out of their ability to share information with unaffiliated third parties under certain circumstances.  They also impact the Banks’ ability to share information with affiliates and non-affiliates for marketing and/or non-marketing purposes, or to contact customers with marketing offers. In addition, the Banks are required to implement a comprehensive information security program that includes administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to ensure the security and confidentiality of customer records and information. These security and privacy policies and procedures, for the protection of personal and confidential information, are in effect across all businesses and geographic locations.

Concentrations in Commercial Real Estate.Concentration risk exists when FDIC-insured institutions deploy too many assets to any one industry or segment. A concentration in commercial real estate is one example of regulatory concern. The interagency Concentrations in Commercial Real Estate Lending, Sound Risk Management Practices guidance (“CRE Guidance”) provides supervisory criteria, including the following numerical indicators, to assist bank examiners in identifying banks with potentially significant commercial real estate loan concentrations that may warrant greater supervisory scrutiny: (i) commercial real estate loans exceeding 300% of capital and increasing 50% or more in the preceding three years; or (ii) construction and land development loans exceeding 100% of capital. The CRE Guidance does not limit banks’ levels of commercial real estate lending activities, but rather guides institutions in developing risk management practices and levels of capital that are commensurate with the level and nature of their commercial real estate concentrations. On December 18, 2015, the federal banking agencies issued a statement to reinforce prudent risk-management practices related to CRE lending, having observed substantial growth in many CRE asset and lending markets, increased competitive pressures, rising CRE concentrations in banks, and an easing of CRE underwriting standards. The federal bank agencies reminded FDIC-insured institutions to maintain underwriting discipline and exercise prudent risk-management practices to identify, measure, monitor, and manage the risks arising from CRE lending. In addition, FDIC-insured institutions must maintain capital commensurate with the level and nature of their CRE concentration risk. Based on their respectiveAs of December 31, 2018, QCBT, CRBT and RB&T were in compliance with the 300% guideline for commercial real estate loans. Although CSB’s loan portfolios, noneportfolio has historically been real estate dominated and its real estate portfolio levels exceed these policy limits, it has established a Credit Risk Committee to routinely monitor its real estate portfolio.

155


Consumer Financial Services.The historical structure of federal consumer protection regulation applicable to all providers of consumer financial products and services changed significantly on July 21, 2011, when the CFPB commenced operations to supervise and enforce consumer protection laws. The CFPB has broad rulemaking authority for a wide range of consumer protection laws that apply to all providers of consumer products and services, including the Bank,Banks, as well as the authority to prohibit “unfair, deceptive or abusive” acts and practices. The CFPB has examination and enforcement authority over providers with more than $10 billion in assets. FDIC-insured institutions with $10 billion or less in assets, like the Bank,Banks, continue to be examined by their applicable bank regulators.

Because abuses in connection with residential mortgages were a significant factor contributing to the global financial crisis, many new rules issued by the CFPB and required by the Dodd-Frank Act addressaddressed mortgage and mortgage-related products, their underwriting, origination, servicing and sales. The Dodd-Frank Act significantly expanded underwriting requirements applicable to loans secured by 1-4 family residential real property and augmented federal law combating predatory lending practices. In addition to numerous disclosure requirements, the Dodd-FrankDodd‑Frank Act imposed new standards for mortgage loan originations on all lenders, including all FDIC-insured institutions,banks and savings associations, in an effort to strongly encourage lenders to verify a borrower’s “abilityability to repay, while also establishing a presumption of compliance for certain “qualified mortgages.”  In addition,The Regulatory Relief Act provided relief in connection with mortgages for banks with assets of less than $10 billion, and, as a result, mortgages the Dodd-Frank Act generally required lenders or securitizersBanks make are now considered to retain an economic interestbe qualified mortgages if they are held in portfolio for the credit risk relating to loans thatlife of the lender sells, and other asset-backed securities that the securitizer issues, if the loans haveloan.

 The Company does not complied with the ability-to-repay standard. The Banks do not currently expect the CFPB’s rules to have a significant impact on their respectiveits operations, except for higher compliance costs.
