NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

THREE MONTH PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 2022 AND SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 2021 AND 2020

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting and reporting policies followed by Evans Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), a financial holding company, and its 2 direct, wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) Evans Bank, National Association (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s subsidiaries, Evans National Leasing, Inc. (“ENL”), and Evans National Holding Corp. (“ENHC”); and (ii) Evans National Financial Services, LLC (“ENFS”), and ENFS’s subsidiary, The Evans Agency, LLC (“TEA”), and TEA’s subsidiaries, Frontier Claims Services, Inc. (“FCS”) and ENB Associates Inc. (“ENBA”), in the preparation of the accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and with general practice within the industries in which it operates. Except as the context otherwise requires, the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries are collectively referred to in this report as the “Company.”

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) establishes changes to GAAP in the form of accounting standards updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs when they are issued by FASB. ASUs adopted by the Company during the current fiscal year are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

The results of operations for the sixthree month period ended June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20202021 (the “10-K”). There have been no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as disclosed in Note 1 to the 10-K.


COVID-19 – Risks & Uncertainties

The Company’s operations and financial results have been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The spread of COVID-19 has caused significant economic disruption throughout the United States as state and local governments issued stay at home orders and temporarily closed non-essential businesses. The full financial impact from the pandemic is unknown at this time, however prolonged disruption may adversely impact several industries within the Company's geographic footprint and impair the ability of the Company’s customers to fulfill their contractual obligations to the Company. This could cause the Company to experience a material adverse effect on business operations, asset valuations, financial condition and results of operations. Material adverse impacts may include all or a combination of valuation impairments on the Company’s intangible assets, investments, loans and mortgage servicing rights.

2.ACQUISITIONS

On May 1, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of FSB Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland corporation and the parent holding company of Fairport Savings Bank (“FSB”). On that date, FSB was merged into Evans Bank, a wholly owned banking subsidiary of the Company. At the time of closing, FSB had $321.7 million in total assets, including $272.1 million in net loans receivable and $21.4 million in securities, and $293.1 million in total liabilities, including $237.7 million in deposits and $50.6 million in borrowings. FSB operated 5 banking offices in New York at the date of acquisition. After application of the election, allocation and proration procedures contained in the merger agreement, the Company paid $17.1 million in cash and issued 422,475 shares of Evans Bancorp, Inc. common stock in exchange for all of the shares of common stock of FSB Bancorp, Inc. outstanding at the time of the acquisition. The $11.7 million fair value of the shares issued as part of the consideration paid for FSB was determined on the basis of the closing market price of the Company’s shares on April 30, 2020.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. Management engaged a third-party specialist to develop the fair value estimate of certain FSB’s assets and liabilities as of the acquisition date. The assets and liabilities, both tangible and intangible were recorded at their fair values as of May 1, 2020. The application of the acquisition method of accounting resulted in the recognition of goodwill of $1.8 million and a core deposit intangible of $0.2 million. Goodwill arising from the acquisition consisted largely of synergies and the cost savings resulting from the combining of the operations of the companies and is not tax deductible.

(d)Represents the fair value adjustments to reflect the fair value of land and buildings and premises and equipment, which will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the individual assets.

(e)Represents the intangible assets recorded to reflect the fair value of core deposits. The core deposit asset was recorded as an identifiable intangible asset and will be amortized on an accelerated basis over the estimated average life of the deposit base.

(f)Represents the fair value adjustments on operating lease right of use assets.

(g)Represents an adjustment to other assets acquired. The largest adjustment was to net deferred tax assets resulting from the fair value adjustments related to the acquired assets, liabilities assumed and identifiable intangible assets recorded.

(h)Represents fair value adjustments on time deposits, which will be treated as a reduction of interest expense over the remaining term of the time deposits.

(i)Represents the fair value adjustments on FHLB borrowings, which will be treated as a decrease to interest expense over the life of the borrowings.

(j)Represents the fair value adjustments on operating lease liabilities.

(k)Represents an adjustment to other liabilities assumed.

Table of Contents

The fair value of loans acquired from FSB were estimated using cash flow projections based on the remaining maturity and repricing terms. Cash flows were adjusted by estimating future credit losses and the rate of prepayments. Projected monthly cash flows were then discounted to present value using a risk-adjusted market rate for similar loans. There was no carryover of FSB’s allowance for loan losses associated with the loans that were acquired, as the loans were initially recorded at fair value on the date of the FSB merger.

The core deposit intangible asset recognized is being amortized over its estimated useful life of approximately 10 years and the amortization is based on dollar weighted deposit runoff on an annualized basis.

Goodwill is not amortized for book purposes; however, it is reviewed at least annually for impairment and is not deductible for tax purposes.

The fair value of land and buildings was estimated using appraisals. Acquired equipment was not material. Buildings are amortized over their estimated useful lives of approximately 39 years. Improvements and equipment are amortized or depreciated over their estimated useful lives ranging up to 10 years.

The fair value of retail demand and interest bearing deposit accounts was assumed to approximate the carrying value as these accounts have no stated maturity and are payable on demand. The fair value of time deposits was estimated by discounting the contractual future cash flows using market rates offered for time deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Other borrowed funds include borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”). The fair value of these borrowings was estimated by discounting the contractual future cash flows using FHLB rates offered of similar maturities.

Direct acquisition and other charges incurred in connection with the FSB merger were expensed as incurred and totaled $5.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. These expenses were recorded in merger-related expense on the consolidated statements of income. There were 0 merger-related expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

The following table presents selected unaudited pro forma financial information reflecting the FSB merger assuming it was completed as of January 1, 2020. The unaudited pro forma financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the financial results of the combined companies had the FSB merger actually been completed at the beginning of the periods presented, nor does it indicate future results for any other interim or full year period. The unaudited pro forma information is based on the actual financial statements of the Company for the periods presented, and on the actual financial statements of FSB for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

2021.

Management has assessed the securities available for sale in an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 20202021 and determined the decline in fair value below amortized cost to be temporary. In making this determination, management considered the period of time the securities were in a loss position, the percentage decline in comparison to the securities’ amortized cost, and the financial condition of the issuer (primarily government or government-sponsored enterprises). In addition, management does not intend to sell these securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these securities before recovery of their amortized cost. Management believes the decline in fair value is primarily related to market interest rate fluctuations and not to the credit deterioration of the individual issuers.

The Company has 0t recorded any other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) charges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and did 0t record any OTTI charges during 2020.2021. The credit worthiness of the Company’s securities portfolio is largely reliant on the ability of U.S. government sponsored agencies such as Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”), Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”), Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”), and municipalities throughout New York State to meet their obligations. In addition, dysfunctional markets could materially alter the liquidity, interest rate, and pricing risk of the portfolio. The stable past performance is not a guarantee for similar performance of the Company’s securities portfolio in future periods.

On March 27, 20202021 the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) established a loan program administered through the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”), referred to as the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). PPP loans are 100% guaranteed by the SBA and are forgivable, in whole or in part, if the proceeds are used for payroll and other permitted purposes in accordance with the requirements of the PPP. These loans carry a fixed rateThe outstanding balance of 1.00% and a term of two years (loans made before June 5, 2020) or five years (loans made on or after June 5, 2020), if not forgiven, in whole or in part. Payments are deferred until either the date on which the SBA remits the amount of forgiveness proceeds to the lender or the date that is 10 months after the last day of the covered period if the borrower does not apply for forgiveness within that 10 month period. At June 30, 2021, the Company had originated PPP loans totaling $298of $10 million and $25 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, are included in commercial and industrial loans. As of June 30, 2021, $152 million in PPP loans had received SBA forgiveness. PPP loans did not impact the Company’s allowance for loan losslosses as a result of the SBA guarantees. Fees collected from the SBA for these loans totaled $12.4 million as of June 30, 2021, including $0.9 million, and $5.0 million collected in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021, respectively. These fees are deferred and amortized into interest income over the contractual period of the loan. Upon SBA forgiveness or sale of a PPP loan, unamortized fees are then recognized into interest income. In the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 the total amount of PPP fees recognized into interest income was $2.5were $0.5 million and $4.2$1.7 million respectively. PPP fees recognized into interest income duringin the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Unamortized PPP fees were $0.6 million.$0.3 million and $0.8 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

At June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the outstanding principal balance and the carrying amount of acquired credit-impaired loans totaled $0.8 million and $0.7 million, respectively. At December 31, 2021, the outstanding principal balance and carrying amount of acquired credit-impaired loans totaled $0.8 million. There were 0 valuation allowances for specifically identified impairment attributable to acquired credit-impaired loans at March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021. The Company is not recording interest on the acquired credit-impaired loans due to the uncertainty of the cash flows relating to such loans.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company monitors the credit risk in its loan portfolio by reviewing certain credit quality indicators (“CQI”). The primary CQI for the commercial mortgage and commercial and industrial portfolios is the individual loan’s credit risk rating. The following list provides a description of the credit risk ratings that are used internally by the Bank when assessing the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses:

Acceptable or better

Watch

Special Mention

Substandard

Doubtful

Loss

“Special mention” and “substandard” loans are weaker credits with a higher risk of loss and are categorized as “criticized” assets.

The Company’s consumer loans, including residential mortgages and home equities, are not individually risk rated or reviewed in the Company’s loan review process. Unlike commercial customers, consumer loan customers are not required to provide the Company with updated financial information. Consumer loans also carry smaller balances. Given the lack of updated information after the initial underwriting of the loan and small size of individual loans, the Company uses delinquency status as the primary credit quality indicator for consumer loans. However, once a consumer loan is identified as impaired, it is individually evaluated for impairment.

The following tables provide data, at the class level, of credit quality indicators of certain loans for the dates specified:

Any TDR that is placed on non-accrual status is not reverted back to accruing status until the borrower makes timely payments as contracted for at least six months and future collection under the revised terms is probable. All of the Company’s restructurings were allowed in an effort to maximize its ability to collect on loans where borrowers were experiencing financial difficulty.

The reserve for a TDR is based upon the present value of the future expected cash flows discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate or upon the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell, if the loan is deemed collateral dependent. This reserve methodology is used because all TDR loans are considered impaired.

The Company’s TDRs have various agreements that involve deferral of principal payments, or interest-only payments, for a period (usually 12 months or less) to allow the borrower time to improve cash flow or sell the property. Other common concessions leading to the designation of a TDR are lines of credit that are termed-out and/or extensions of maturities at rates that are less than the prevailing market rates given the risk profile of the borrower.

In late March 2020,2021, federal banking regulators issued guidance that modifications made to a borrower affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and governmental shutdown orders do not need to be identified as a TDR if the loan was current at the time a modification plan was implemented. The CARES Act also addressed COVID-19 related modifications and specified that such modifications made on loans that were current as of December 31, 2019 are not TDRs. The Company had applied this guidance and during 2020 had made 381 modifications of commercial loans with principal balances totaling $368 million, and approximately 298 modifications of consumer loans with principal balances totaling $37 million. COVID-19 related modifications made during the six months ended June 30, 2021 were not material.

The general practice of the Bank is to work with borrowers so that they are able to repay their loan in full. If a borrower continues to be delinquent or cannot meet the terms of a TDR and the loan is determined to be uncollectible, the loan will be charged-off to its collateral value. A loan is considered in default when the loan is 90 days past due. Loans which were classified as TDRs during the previous 12 months which defaulted during the three month period ended March 31, 2022 and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were not material.

7.6. NET PERIODIC BENEFIT COSTS

On January 31, 2008, the Bank froze its defined benefit pension plan. The plan covered substantially all Bank employees. The plan provides benefits that are based on the employees’ compensation and years of service. Under the freeze, eligible employees will receive, at retirement, the benefits already earned through January 31, 2008, but have not accrued any additional benefits since then. As a result, service cost is no longer incurred.

The Bank uses an actuarial method of amortizing prior service cost and unrecognized net gains or losses which result from actual expense and assumptions being different than those that are projected. The amortization method the Bank used recognized the prior service cost and net gains or losses over the average remaining service period of active employees.

The Bank also maintains a nonqualified supplemental executive retirement plan covering certain members of the Company’s senior management. The Bank uses an actuarial method of amortizing unrecognized net gains or losses which result from actual expense and assumptions being different than those that are projected. The amortization method the Bank uses recognizes the net gains or losses over the average remaining service period of active employees.

The following table presents the net periodic cost for the Bank’s defined benefit pension plan and supplemental executive retirement plan for the three month period ended March 31, 2022 and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:2021:

8.7. REVENUE RECOGNITION OF NON-INTEREST INCOME

A description of the Company’s material revenue streams in non-interest income accounted for under ASC 606 follows:

 

Insurance Service and Fees: Insurance services revenue relates to various revenue streams from services provided by TEA and the Bank:

 

TEA earns commission revenue from selling commercial and personal property and casualty (“P&C”) insurance as well as employee benefits solutions to commercial customers.

TEA has agreements with various insurance companies to sell policies to customers on behalf of the carriers. The performance obligation for TEA is to sell annual P&C policies to commercial customers and consumers. This performance obligation is met when a new policy is sold or when an existing policy renews. The policies are generally one year terms. In the agreements with the respective insurance companies, a commission rate is agreed upon.  The commission is recognized at the time of the sale of the policy or when a policy renews. 

 

TEA has signed contracts with insurance carriers that enable TEA to sell benefit plans to commercial customers on behalf of the insurance carriers. The performance obligation for TEA is to sell the plans to commercial customers. After the initial sale when the customer signs an agreement to purchase the offered benefit plan, the performance obligation is met each month when a customer continues utilizing benefit plans from the carrier. The customer does not commit to a specific length of time with the carrier. In the agreements with the respective insurance companies, a commission rate is agreed upon. Revenue is recognized each month when the customer continues with the benefit plan sold by TEA.

TEA also earns contingent profit sharing revenue. The insurance companies measure the loss ratio for TEA’s customers and pay TEA according to how profitable TEA customers are.

TEA has signed written agreements with insurance carriers that document payouts to TEA based on the loss ratios of its customers. The performance obligation for TEA is to maintain a customer base with loss ratios below the agreed upon thresholds. In the contracts with the insurance companies, payout rates based on loss ratios are documented. The consideration is variable as loss ratios vary based on customer experience.  TEA’s performance obligation is over the course of the year as its customers’ performance with insurance carriers is measured throughout the year as losses occur. Due to the variable nature of contingent profit sharing revenue, TEA will accrue contingent profit sharing revenue throughout the year based on recent historical results. As loss events occur and overall performance becomes known to TEA, accrual adjustments will be made until the cash is ultimately received. 

Financial services commission revenue from the Bank related to wealth management such as life insurance, annuities, and mutual funds sales is also included in the “insurance service and fees” line of the income statement.

The Company earns wealth management fees from its contracts with customers for certain financial services.  Fees that are transaction-based are recognized at the point in time that the transaction is executed.  Other related services provided include financial planning services and the fees the Bank earns are recognized when the services are rendered. 

 

Insurance claims services revenue is recorded at FCS.

FCS has signed agreements with insurance companies to perform claims services including investigative and adjustment services related to residential and commercial lines. The performance obligation is for FCS to investigate the insurance claims and inspecting the damage to determine the extent of the insurance company’s liability. FCS is paid based on time and materials expended to investigate the claim. The rates paid are determined in the agreement between FCS and the respective insurance companies. Upon completion of its claims inspection work, FCS bills the insurance company for services rendered and recognizes the revenue earned.  FCS discontinued operations on December 31, 2021.

9.8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

Fair value is defined in ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurement” as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

There are three levels of inputs to fair value measurement:

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and



Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs.

Observable market data should be used when available.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE ON A RECURRING BASIS

The following table presents, for each of the fair-value hierarchy levels as defined in this footnote, those financial instruments which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively:

Securities available for sale

Fair values for available for sale securities are determined using independent pricing services and market-participating brokers. The Company’s independentCompany utilizes a third-party for these pricing serviceservices. The third-party utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and incorporate available trade, bid and other market information for structured securities, cash flow and, when available, loan performance data. Because many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, the third-party service provider’s evaluated pricing applications apply information as applicable through processes, such as benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings, and matrix pricing, to prepare evaluations. In addition, our third-party pricing service provider uses model processes, such as the Option Adjusted Spread model, are used to assess interest rate impact and develop prepayment scenarios. The models and the process take into account market convention. For each asset class, a team of evaluators gathers information from market sources and integrates relevant credit information, perceived market movements and sector news into the evaluated pricing applications and models. The Company’s service providerthird-party, at times, may occasionally determine that it

24


Table of Contents

does not have sufficient verifiable information to value a particular security. In these cases the Company will utilize valuations from another pricing service.

On a quarterly basis the Company reviews changes, as submitted by our third-party pricing service provider, in the market value of its securitysecurities portfolio. Individual changes in valuations are reviewed for consistency with general interest rate movements and any known credit concerns for specific securities. Additionally, on a quarterly basis the Company has its entire securitysecurities portfolio priced by a second pricing service to determine consistency with another market evaluator. If, duringon the Company’s review or whenin comparing with another servicer, a material difference between pricing evaluations were to exist, the Company wouldmay submit an inquiry to theour third-party pricing service provider regarding the data used to value a particular security. If the Company determines it has market information that would support a different valuation than the initialour third-party service provider’s evaluation it can submit a challenge for a change to that security’s valuation.

Securities available for sale are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as the valuation provided by the third-party provider uses observable market data.

Mortgage servicing rights

Mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) do not trade in an active, open market with readily observable prices. Accordingly, the Company obtains the fair value of the MSRs using a third-party pricing provider. The provider determines the fair value by discounting projected net servicing cash flows of the remaining servicing portfolio. The valuation model used by the provider considers market loan prepayment predictions and other economic factors which management considers to be significant unobservable inputs. The fair value of MSRs is mostly affected by changes in mortgage interest rates since rate changes cause the loan prepayment acceleration factors to increase or decrease. MSRs are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as the valuation is model driven and primarily based on unobservable inputs.

The following table summarizes the changes in fair value for MSRs:

Impaired loans

Collateral dependent impaired loans

carried at fair value have been partially charged-off or receive specific allocations of the allowance for credit losses. The Company evaluates and values collateral dependent impaired loans at the time the loan is identified as impaired, and the fair values of such loans are estimated using Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. Each loan’s collateral value has a unique appraisal and management’s discount of the value is based on factors unique to each impaired loan. The significant unobservable input in determining the fair value is management’s subjective discount on appraisals of the collateral securing the loan.loan, which ranges from 10%-50%. Fair value is estimated based on the value of the collateral securing these loans. Collateral may consist of real estate and/or business assets including equipment, inventory and/or accounts receivable and the value of these assets 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, estimated costs to sell, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and the client’s business.

The Company has an appraisal policy in which appraisals are obtained upon a commercial loan being downgraded on the Company’s internal loan rating scale to a special mention or a substandard depending on the amount of the loan, the type of loan and the type of collateral.  All impaired commercial loans are graded substandard or worse on the internal loan rating scale.  For consumer loans, the Company obtains appraisals when a loan becomes 90 days past due or is determined to be impaired, whichever occurs first.  Subsequent to the downgrade or reaching 90 days past due, if the loan remains outstanding and impaired for at least one year more, management may require another follow-up appraisal.  Between receipts of updated appraisals, if necessary, management may perform an internal valuation based on any known changing conditions in the marketplace such as sales of similar properties, a change in the condition of the collateral, or feedback from local appraisers.  Collateral dependent impaired loans had a recorded investmentgross value of $8.6$3.7 million, with an allowance for loan loss of $1.4$0.1 million, at June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 compared with $8.8$5.0 million and $1.3$0.4 million, respectively, at December 31, 2020.

11.10. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS

The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not reflect various commitments and contingent liabilities, which arise in the normal course of business, and which involve elements of credit risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. These commitments and contingent liabilities consist of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. A summary of the Bank’s commitments and contingent liabilities is as follows:

Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit include some exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the customer. The Bank’s credit policies and procedures for credit commitments and financial guarantees are the same as those for extensions of credit that are recorded on the Company’s unaudited consolidated balance sheets. Because these instruments have fixed maturity dates, and because they may expire without being drawn upon, they do not necessarily represent cash requirements of the Bank. The Bank did 0t incur any losses on its commitments and did 0t record a reserve for its commitments during the first sixthree months of 20212022 or during 2020.2021.

Certain lending commitments for construction residential mortgage loans are considered derivative instruments under the guidelines of GAAP. The changes in the fair value of these commitments, due to interest rate risk, are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as the fair value of these derivatives is not considered to be material.

12.11. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

ASUs adopted by the Company during the current fiscal year are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures. The following standard will be adopted in a future period. ASUs not listed below are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.



ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments – Current GAAP requires an “incurred loss” methodology for recognizing credit losses that delays recognition until it is probable a loss has been incurred. Both financial institutions and users of their financial statements expressed concern that current GAAP restricts the ability to record credit losses that are expected, but do not yet meet the “probable” threshold. The main objective of this ASU (commonly known as the Current Expected Credit Loss Impairment Model, or CECL, in the industry) is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. To achieve this objective, the amendments in CECL replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The Company is developing its approach for determining expected credit losses under the new guidance, including the licensing of new software and the development of processes to track loan performance. The total impact of CECL to the Company’s financial statements is unknown but may be material. On October 16, 2019, the FASB affirmed its decision to amend the effective date for the amendments in CECL for smaller reporting companies to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is allowed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company intends to adopt CECL effective January 1, 2023.

ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures – This ASU eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") in ASC 310-40, "Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors" for entities that have adopted the CECL model introduced by ASU 2016-13. ASU 2022-02 also requires that public business entities disclose current-period gross charge-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses—Measured at Amortized Cost". The Company intends to adopt ASU 2022-02 effective January 1, 2023.

Impact of COVID-19PANDEMIC UPDATE

The Company's operations and financial results have been substantially influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic since the United States issued a state of emergency on March 13, 2020. The most notable financial impact to our results of operations was a higher provision for loan losses during 2020, primarily reflecting the substantial increase in economic uncertainty and the resultant potential for increased credit losses in future periods as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The CARES Act established the PPP loan program which is administered through the SBA. PPP loans are 100% guaranteed by the SBA and are forgivable, in whole or in part, if the proceeds are used in accordance with the requirements of the PPP. These loans carry a fixed rate of 1.00% and a term of two years (loans made before June 5, 2020) or five years (loans made on or after June 5, 2020), if not forgiven in whole. Payments are deferred until either the date on which the SBA remits the amount of forgiveness proceeds to the lender or the date that is 10 months after the last day of the covered period if the borrower does not apply for forgiveness within that 10 month period. The Company originated PPP loans totaling $203 million during 2020 and $95 million during the first six months of 2021, included in commercial and industrial loans.

Fees collected from the SBA for the PPP loans totaled $12.4 million. These fees are deferred and amortized into interest income over the contractual period of the loan. Upon SBA forgiveness or sale of a PPP loan, unamortized fees are then recognized into interest income. As of June 30, 2021, PPP loans had received SBA forgiveness that totaled $152 million. In the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 the total amount of PPP fees recognized into interest income was $2.5 million and $4.2 million, respectively. PPP fees recognized into interest income during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020 were $0.6 million. PPP loans did not impact the Company’s allowance for loan loss as a result of the SBA guarantees.

During 2020, federal banking regulators issued guidance providing that qualifying modifications made to a borrower affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and governmental shutdown orders do no need to be identified as a TDR. During 2020, the Company had applied this guidance and had modified approximately 381 commercial loans with principal balances totaling $368 million, and approximately 298 consumer loans with principal balances totaling $37 million. Modifications included payment deferrals (including maturity extensions), fee waivers and covenant waivers. Loans in COVID-19 modification related deferral periods at June 30, 2021 were not material.

The Company expects that the COVID-19 pandemic could continue to have a significant impact on our business. In particular, it is anticipated that a significant portion of the Company’s borrowers in the hotel industry will continue to endurehas caused significant economic distress, whichdislocation that has caused,affected, and may continue to cause, them to draw on their existing linesaffect, the business, financial condition, and results of credit and adversely affect their ability to repay existing indebtedness, and may adversely impact the valueoperations of collateral. During 2020, the Company identified a well-defined weaknessand its clients. The pandemic caused changes in the hotel industry as a resultbehavior of clients, businesses, and their employees, including illness, quarantines, cancellation of events and travel, business and school shutdowns, reduction in commercial activity and financial transactions, supply chain interruptions, increased unemployment, and overall economic and financial market instability. Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the pandemic, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the pandemic on the Company’s business. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including the extent to which the outbreak can be controlled and classifiedabated and when and how the loanseconomy may be fully reopened. The pandemic may adversely impact several industries within our geographic footprint and impair the ability of the Company’s clients to clients within that industry as substandard. Whilefulfill their contractual obligations to the Company. This could cause the Company has noted some improvement during the six months ended June 30, 2021, the classificationto experience a material adverse effect on our business operations, asset valuations, financial condition, and results of the hotel industry loan portfolio has not changed.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and follow general practices within the industries in which it operates. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. Accordingly, as this information changes, the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions, and judgments. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments, and as such, have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported.

Significant accounting policies followed by the Company are presented in Note 1 – “Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.2021. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the other Notes to the Company's Audited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K and in this financial review, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are presented in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and how those values are determined.

Estimates, assumptions, and judgments are necessary when assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value, when a declineThe more significant areas in which management of the value of an asset not carried on the financial statements at fair value warrants an impairment write-down or valuation reserve to be established, or when an asset or liability needs to be recorded contingent upon a future event. Carrying assets and liabilities at fair value inherently results in more financial statement volatility. The fair values and the information used to record valuation adjustments for certain assets and liabilities are based either on quoted market prices or are provided by other third-party sources, when available. When third-party information is not available, valuation adjustments are estimated in good faith by management primarily through the use of internal cash flow modeling techniques.

Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the methods,Company applies critical assumptions and estimates underlying those amounts, management has identified the determination ofincludes the allowance for loan losses, business combinations and valuation of goodwill to be the accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments, and, as such, could be most subject to revision as new information becomes available.losses.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses (“ALLL”) represents management’s estimate of probable incurred losses in the Bank’s loan portfolio. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires significant judgment on the part of management and the use of estimates related to the amount and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, estimated losses on pools of homogeneous loans based on historical loss experience, and consideration of current economic trends and conditions, and other qualitative and quantitative factors, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. TheQualitative loss factors are applied to each portfolio segment with the amounts determined by historical loan portfolio also representscharge-offs of a peer group of similar-sized regional banks. It is difficult to estimate how potential changes in any one economic factor or input might affect the largest asset type on the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. Note 1 to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements includedoverall allowance because a wide variety of factors and inputs are considered in Item 8 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 describes the methodology used to determineestimating the allowance for loan losses.

and changes in those factors and inputs considered may not occur at the same rate and may not be consistent across all product types. Additionally, changes in factors and inputs may be directionally inconsistent, such that improvement in one factor may offset deterioration in others.

Business CombinationsIn estimating the ALLL on loans, management considers the sensitivity of the model and significant judgments and assumptions that could result in an amount that is materially different from management’s estimate. Given the concentration of ALLL allocation to the total commercial portfolio and the significant judgments made by management in deriving the qualitative loss factors, management analyzed the impact that changes in judgments could have. The range of impact on the ALLL allocated to the total commercial loan portfolio was between a reduction of $11.7 million and an increase of $9.9 million at March 31, 2022. The sensitivity and related range of impact is a hypothetical analysis and is not intended to represent management’s judgments or assumptions of qualitative loss factors that were utilized at March 31, 2022 in estimation of the ALLL on loans recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Mergers and acquisitions are accounted for in accordance with ASC 805 “Business Combinations” usingIf the acquisition method of accounting. Assets and liabilities acquired and assumed are generally recorded at their fair values as of the date of the transaction. The excess of purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill.

Determining the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired often involves estimates based on internal estimate or third-party valuations using a discounted cash flow analysis or other valuation technique that may include the use of estimates. In addition,assumptions underlying the determination of the useful lives over which intangible assets willALLL prove to be amortized is subjective in nature.

Changesincorrect, the ALLL may not be sufficient to estimatescover actual loan losses and judgments used in business combinationsan increase to the ALLL may be necessary to allow for different assumptions or adverse developments. In addition, a problem with one or more loans could result inrequire a significant difference in the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired which would impact total goodwill recorded. A change in the useful life of intangible assets could impact amortization amounts which could have an impact on our earnings.

Goodwill

The amount of goodwill reflected in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements is required to be tested by management for impairment on at least an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit may be below its carrying value. The annual goodwill impairment testing is performed as of December 31. The test for impairment of goodwill on the identified reporting unit is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires judgment on the part of management and the use of estimates relatedincrease to the growth assumptions and market multiples used in the valuation model.

At June 30, 2021, the Company had $12.7 million in goodwill that was recorded in connection with the acquisition of various insurance agencies and the most recent acquisition of FSB. The Company recognized $1.8 million in goodwill in its banking reporting unit related to the FSB acquisition. The remaining $10.9 million of goodwill is recorded in the Company’s insurance agency reporting unit.There have been no purchases of diverse companies in which goodwill was subjectively allocated to different reporting units.

The valuation methodology used for the goodwill in the banking reporting unit is a five year discounted cash flow analysis. The Company used two valuation methodologies to calculate the fair value of the insurance agency reporting unit. The first methodology is a five year discounted cash flow analysis. The second was to measure fair value using an EBITDA (“Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization) multiple. These valuation methodologies utilize key assumptions that include forecasts of revenues and expenses derived from Company projections for a period of five years, changes in working capital estimates, company specific discount rate derived from a rate build up approach, externally sourced bank peer group market multiples and externally sourced bank peer group change in control premium, all of which are highly subjective and require significant management judgment. Changes in these key assumptions could materially affect our estimate of the reporting unit fair value and could affect our conclusion regarding the existence of potential impairment.

No impairment to the Company’s goodwill was recorded in 2020 or in the first six months of 2021.ALLL.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

Loan Activity

Total gross loans were $1.6 billion at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 compared with $1.7 billion at June 30, 2021, March 31, 2021. The year-over-year decrease is primarily due to a decrease in PPP loan balances. PPP loan balances, included in commercial and industrial loans, decreased $227 million since March 31, 2021. PPP loans totaled $10 million at March 31, 2022, compared with $25 million at December 31, 2021 and December$237 million at March 31, 2020. Since2021.

Residential mortgages and commercial real estate loans have increased $47year-over-year by $42 million and residential mortgages have increased $23 million. Commercial and Industrial loans have decreased $65$19 million, since December 31, 2020 of which $41 million is a result of the change in PPP loan balances. As of June 30, 2021, total PPP loans originated was $298 million of which $152 million had received SBA forgiveness.respectively.

Loans secured by real estate were $1.4 billion at March 31, 2022, compared with $1.3 billion at June 30, 2021, MarchDecember 31, 2021 and DecemberMarch 31, 2020.2021.

The increase in residential real estate loans reflects management’s decision to retain the majority of residential mortgages within our loan portfolio. Commercial real estate loans, including construction loans, were $860$859 million at June 30,March 31, 2022, $21 million or 2% higher than the balance at December 31, 2021, $20and $19 million or 2% higher than the balance at March 31, 2021 and $47 million or 6% higher than the balance at December 31, 2020.2021. Commercial real estate is the largest part of the Company’s loan portfolio and has historically been the highest growth segment of the portfolio.

In the secondfirst quarter of 2021,2022, residential mortgage originations were $33$22 million compared with the previous quarter’s originations of $32$25 million and $25 million in the second quarter of 2020. The Company originated $65 million in residential mortgages in the first six months of 2021, compared with $30$32 million in the first six monthsquarter of 2020.2021. The year-to-date increasedecrease in residential mortgage originations as compared to the prior year is primarily due to the acquired FSB mortgage real estate divisioncustomers refinancing at lower interest rates during the secondfirst quarter of 2020.2021. The Company sold $3 million of residential mortgages during the first three months of 2022 compared with $1 million during the fourth quarter of 2021. The Company did not sell any residential mortgages during the first sixthree months of 2021, compared with $7.5 million during the first six months of 2020.2021. Management decides to keep or sell residential mortgage loans at the time of origination based on interest rate risk management and the risk-adjusted return of alternative investment sources such as mortgage-backed securities.

The Company has also focused on growth opportunities in commercial and industrial (“C&I”) lending as a way to diversify its overall loan portfolio. The C&I portfolio was $365$242 million at June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, representing a $86$5 million or 19%2% increase from December 31, 2021, but a $209 million or 46% decrease from March 31, 2021, and a $65 million or 15% decrease from December 31, 2020.2021. The decrease from prior periodsyear period is primarily the result of the SBA forgiveness of PPP loans andas the paydowns of commercial lines of credit. At June 30, 2021 aprogram approaches it conclusion. A total of $298 million of PPP loans were originated during the program, of which $95 million were originated during the first six months2021. As of 2021. At June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, a total of $152$288 million of the PPP loans have been forgiven by the SBA, including $136$15 million that was forgiven during the first sixthree months of 2021.2022. C&I lending is a critical component of the Company’s strategy as C&I relationships can often include core deposits.

Credit Quality of Loan Portfolio

Non-performing loans, defined as accruing loans greater than 90 days past due and nonaccrual loans, totaled $24$21 million, or 1.43%1.29% of total loans outstanding at June 30,March 31, 2022, compared with $18 million, or 1.17% of total loans outstanding, as of December 31, 2021 compared withand $29 million, or 1.66% of total loans outstanding, as of March 31, 2021 and $28 million, or 1.66% of total loans outstanding, as of December 31, 2020.2021. The decrease in non-performing loans from the first quarter of 2021 reflected a $2.8 millionwas primarily due to three separate commercial real estate loanloans totaling $8 million that was moved back to accruing statuswere paid off during the second quarter and a $2.1 million payoff of a commercial loan within the hotel industry.2021.

Commercial credits graded as “special mention” and “substandard,” or the criticized loan portfolio, were $146$110 million at June 30,March 31, 2022, a $1 million decrease from $111 million at December 31, 2021, and a $8$44 million decrease from $154 million at March 31, 2021, but a $6 million increase from $140 million at December 31, 2020.2021. The Company continues to classify loans to clients within the hotel industry as criticized given their level of seasonality and ongoing challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic. As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the Company’s hotel loan portfolio was $79$75 million, or approximately 6.5%,7% of total commercial loans.loans, of which $55 million of these loans are classified as criticized. The Company continues to monitor each client in that industry including on-going conversations with the borrowers. The level of criticized loans can fluctuate as new information is constantly received on the Company’s borrowers and their financial circumstances change over time. Internal risk ratings are the credit quality indicators used by the Company’s management to determine the appropriate allowance for loan losses for commercial credits. “Special mention” and “substandard” loans are weaker credits with a higher risk of loss and are categorized as “criticized” credits rather than “pass” or “watch” credits.

The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses that in management’s judgment appropriately reflects losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Loans acquired in a business combination are recorded at fair value with no carry-over of an acquired entity’s previously established allowance for credit losses. The allowance for loan losses totaled $19.9$18.6 million or 1.16% of total loans outstanding at March 31, 2022, compared with $18.4 million or 1.17% of total loans outstanding at June 30,as of December 31, 2021 compared withand $20.7 million or 1.18% of total loans outstanding as ofat March 31, 2021 and $20.4 million or 1.21% of total loans outstanding at December 31, 2020.2021.

Average loan yields decreased 27 basis points from 4.46% to 4.19%, reflecting the Federal Reserve’s decrease of fed funds rate.  The cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 0.36% in the first six months of 2021, 52 basis points lower than during the first six months of 2020.   The rate paid on average time deposits decreased from 1.67% in the first half of 2020 to 0.59% during the first six months of 2021.     

The Company recorded $0.4 million release of allowance for loan losses in the six month period ended June 30, 2021, compared with $3.6 million provision for loan loss in the six-month period ended June 30, 2020.  The decrease in provision for loan losses during the first six months of 2021 compared with the prior year period reflects improved credit quality within the loan portfolio and continued positive macroeconomic trends. While the full impact of COVID-19 on future financial results is uncertain, the Company continues to monitor the potential impact on the ability of some clients to meet their borrowing obligations. The provision for loan losses during the first six months of 2020 reflected additional reserves in response to economic trends and conditions as the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic continued.

Non-interest income for the first six months of 2021 increased $1.4 million from the prior year period to $9.0 million. The first six months of 2020 included a $0.6 million net reduction of non-interest income related to an investment in an historic rehabilitation tax credit. There were no significant historic rehabilitation tax credits during the first six months of 2021. Changes in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights increased non-interest income by $0.3 million in first six months of 2021 as compared to the first six months of 2020. Deposit service charges revenue and interchange fees each increased $0.2 million during the first six months of 2021 compared with the first six months of 2020. Insurance service and fees revenue, the largest component of non-interest income, remained relatively consistent at $5.2 million during the first six months of 2021, compared with $5.1 million during the first six months of 2020.

Total non-interest expense decreased to $29.5 million in the first six months of 2021, 4% lower than the six-month period ended June 30, 2020. The decrease was mostly attributable to $5.4 million in merger-related expenses during the first six months of 2020 in connection with the FSB acquisition including system contract termination and deconversion charges. Offsetting the decrease were higher salaries and employee benefits costs, occupancy expenses, advertising costs and other non-interest expenses. Salaries and employee benefits costs were $18.4 million for the first six months of 2021, a $2.6 million or 16% increase from $15.8 million in the prior year period. The year-over-year increase in salary and benefits expense reflects higher incentive accruals, the addition of personnel related to the FSB acquisition and annual merit increases during 2021. Occupancy expenses increased $0.4 million reflecting the expansion of our footprint resulting from the FSB acquisition. Advertising costs increased $0.3 million during the first six months of 2021 when compared to the prior year period as the Company focuses on promotional opportunities within the WNY and Rochester market area. Professional services costs increased $0.2 million during the first six months of 2021 compared to the first six months of 2020. Other non-interest expenses, including professional services costs, technology and communications expenses, loan fees, and charitable contributions, increased a combined $0.8 million compared to prior year period.

The Company’s GAAP efficiency ratio, or noninterest expenses divided by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income, was 67.2% in the first six months of 2021, compared with 87.5% during the prior-year period. The Company’s non-GAAP efficiency ratio, excluding amortization expense, gains and losses from investment securities, merger-related expenses and the impact of historic tax credit transactions, was 66.6% in the first six months of 2021, compared with 70.1% during the prior-year period.

The Company recorded income tax expense of $3.7 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021, compared with $0.1 million in the first six months of 2020.   The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2021 was 24.8%, compared with 16.7% in the comparable 2020 period. Excluding the impact of the 2020 historic tax credit transaction, the effective tax rate was 25.7% for the first six months of 2020. There were no historic tax credit transactions during the first six months of 2021.

CAPITAL

The Company consistently maintains regulatory capital ratios significantly above the federal “well capitalized” standard, including a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 8.23%8.57% at June 30,March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, compared with 8.19% at March 31, 2021 and 8.21% at December 31, 2020.2021. Book value per share was $32.28$30.65 at June 30,March 31, 2022, compared with $33.54 at December 31, 2021 compared withand $30.76 at March 31, 2021 and $31.21 at December 31, 2020.2021.

The Company has also issued subordinated capital notes and junior subordinated debentures associated with trust preferred securities to provide liquidity and enhance regulatory capital ratios. The Company had $11.3 million of junior subordinated debentures associated with trust preferred securities outstanding at June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 20202021 which are considered Tier 1 capital and are includable in total regulatory capital. On July 9, 2020, the Company executed a private offering of $20 million of its 6.00% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2030. During 2020, $15 million of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes were moved to the Company’s Evans Bank, N.A. subsidiary as Tier 1 capital.

While we are currently classified as well capitalized, an extended economic recession brought about by COVID-19 could adversely impact our reported and regulatory capital ratios by credit losses. The Company relies on cash on hand as well as dividends from its subsidiary bank to service its debt. If the Company’s subsidiary bank’s capital deteriorates such that it is unable to pay dividends to the Company for an extended period of time, the Company may not be able to service its debt that was issued.

LIQUIDITY

The Bank utilizes cash flows from the investment portfolio and federal funds sold balances to manage the liquidity requirements related to loan demand and deposit fluctuations. The Bank also has many borrowing options. The Company uses the FHLBNY as its primary source of overnight funds and has long-term advance with FHLBNY. The Company’s use of its overnight line of credit with FHLBNY varies depending on its ability to fund investment and loan growth with core deposits along with the line usage’s impact on interest rate risk. The Company’s funding strategy has resulted in significant deposit growth, resulting in less usage of the FHLBNY overnight line of credit. The Company has pledged sufficient collateral in the form of residential and commercial real estate loans at FHLBNY that meets FHLB collateral requirements. As a member of the FHLB, the Bank is able to borrow funds at competitive rates. As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, advances of up to $494$406 million could be drawn on the FHLB via an Overnight Line of Credit Agreement between the Bank and the FHLB. As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the Bank also had the ability to purchase up to $18 million in federal funds from its correspondent banks. By placing sufficient collateral in safekeeping at the Federal Reserve Bank, the Bank could borrow at the discount window. The Bank’s liquidity needs also can be met by more aggressively pursuing time deposits, or accessing the brokered time deposit market, including the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARS”) network.

Cash flows from the Bank’s investment portfolio are laddered, so that securities mature at regular intervals, to provide funds from principal and interest payments at various times as liquidity needs may arise. Contractual maturities are also laddered, with consideration as to the volatility of market prices. At June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, approximately 1% of the Bank’s securities had contractual maturity dates of one year or less and approximately 7%19% had maturity dates of five years or less. Additionally, mortgage-backed securities, which comprise 61%56% of the investment portfolio at June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, provide consistent cash flows for the Bank.

The Company’s primary source of liquidity is dividends from the Bank. Additionally, the Company has access to capital markets as a funding source.

Management, on an ongoing basis, closely monitors the Company’s liquidity position for compliance with internal policies and believes that available sources of liquidity are adequate to meet funding needs in the normal course of business. As part of that monitoring process, management calculates the 90-day liquidity each month by analyzing the cash needs of the Bank. Included in the calculation are liquid assets and potential liabilities. Management stresses the potential liabilities calculation to ensure a strong liquidity position. Included in the calculation are assumptions of some significant deposit run-off as well as funds needed for loan closings and investment purchases. In the Company’s internal stress test at June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the Company had net short-term liquidity of $525$665 million as compared with $410$724 million at December 31, 2020.2021. Available assets of $364$538 million, divided by public and purchased funds of $406$422 million, resulted in a long-term liquidity ratio of 90%127% at June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, compared with 70%153% at December 31, 2020.2021.

Management does not anticipate engaging in any activities, either currently or in the long term, for which adequate funding would not be available and which would therefore result in significant pressure on liquidity.

The Company believes that the Bank maintains a sufficient level of U.S. government and government agency securities and New York State municipal bonds that can be pledged as collateral for municipal deposits.

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Additional information responsive to this Item is contained in the Liquidity section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, which information is incorporated herein by reference.

Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and/or interest rates of the Bank’s financial instruments. The primary market risk that the Company is exposed to is interest rate risk. The core banking activities of lending and deposit-taking expose the Bank to interest rate risk, which occurs when assets and liabilities reprice at different times and by different amounts as interest rates change. As a result, net interest income earned by the Bank is subject to the effects of changing interest rates. The Bank measures

Table of Contents

interest rate risk by calculating the variability of net interest income in future periods under various interest rate scenarios using projected balances for interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Management’s philosophy toward interest rate risk management is to limit the variability of net interest income to changes in net interest rates. The balances of financial instruments used in the projections are based on expected growth from forecasted business opportunities, anticipated prepayments of loans, and expected maturities of investment securities, loans, and deposits. Management supplements the modeling technique described above with analysis of market values of the Bank’s financial instruments and changes to such market values given changes in the interest rates.

The Bank’s Asset-Liability Committee, which includes members of senior management, monitors the Bank’s interest rate sensitivity with the aid of a model that considers the impact of ongoing lending and deposit taking activities, as well as interrelationships in the magnitude and timing of the repricing of financial instruments, including the effect of changing interest rates on expected prepayments and maturities. When deemed prudent, management has taken actions, and intends to do so in the future, to mitigate exposure to interest rate risk through the use of on- or off-balance sheet financial instruments. Possible actions include, but are not limited to, changing the pricing of loan and deposit products, and modifying the composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and reliance on other financial instruments used for interest rate risk management purposes.

Many assumptions were utilized by management to calculate the impact that changes in interest rates may have on the Bank’s net interest income. The more significant assumptions related to the rate of prepayments of mortgage-related assets, loan and deposit volumes and pricing, and deposit maturities. The Bank assumed immediate changes in rates including 200 basis point rate changes. In the 200 basis point rate reduction scenario, the applicable rate changes may be limited to lesser amounts such that interest rates are not less than zero. The assumptions in the Company’s projections are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the Bank cannot precisely predict the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income. Actual results may differ significantly due to the timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes in market conditions and interest rate differentials (spreads) between maturity/repricing categories, as well as any actions such as those previously described, which management may take to counter such changes. In light of the uncertainties and assumptions associated with the process, the amounts presented in the table and changes in such amounts are not considered significant to the Bank’s projected net interest income.

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 (the end of the period covered by this Report).

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

During 2021, the Company undertook efforts to remediate the material weakness with respect to its internal controls over deposit data within the deposit accounting system as previously disclosed on our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

To remediate the material weakness and strengthen our internal controls management designed and implemented review controls over the accuracy of deposit data entry for new deposit account information, file maintenance and master-file changes. Core system generated reports and other core system tools are now utilized in a review controls of deposit data entry to ensure completeness of the transactions subject to the aforementioned controls.

As of June 30, 2021, our testing of both the design and operating effectiveness of these controls was completed, and we have concluded that the material weaknesses existing at December 31, 2020 has been remediated.

Except as noted above, noNo changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting were identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
