Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AmeriServ Financial, Inc. (the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, AmeriServ Financial Bank (the Bank), AmeriServ Trust and Financial Services Company (the Trust Company), and AmeriServ Life Insurance Company (AmeriServ Life). The Bank is a Pennsylvania state-chartered full service bank with 1615 locations in ~~Pennsylvania.~~Pennsylvania and 1 location in Maryland. The Trust Company offers a complete range of trust and financial services and administers assets valued at ~~$2.1~~$2.0 billion that are not reported on the Company’s ~~consolidated balance sheet~~Consolidated Balance Sheets at ~~September 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2020. AmeriServ Life is a captive insurance company that engages in underwriting as a reinsurer of credit life and disability insurance.

In addition, the Parent Company is an administrative group that provides support in such areas as audit, finance, investments, loan review, general services, and marketing. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

Basis of Preparation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring entries considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. They are not, however, necessarily indicative of the results of consolidated operations for a full-year.

For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2016.~~

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

~~In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01,~~~~Financial Instruments — Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities~~. This Update applies to all entities that hold financial assets or owe financial liabilities and is intended to provide more useful information on the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. All entities that are not public business entities may adopt the amendments in this Update earlier as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

~~In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,~~~~Leases (Topic 842)~~. The standard requires lessees to recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases on the balance sheet. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. A short-term lease is defined as one in which (a) the lease term is 12 months or less and (b) there is not an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. For short-term leases, lessees may elect to recognize lease payments over the lease term on a straight-line basis. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The amendments should be applied at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company is currently assessing the practical measures it may elect at adoption, but does not anticipate the amendment will have a significant impact to the financial statements. Based on the Company’s preliminary analysis of its current portfolio, the Company expects to recognize a right of use asset and a lease liability for its operating leases commitments. The Company also anticipates additional disclosures to be provided at adoption.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,Financial Instruments — Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments~~(“ASU 2016-13”)~~ (ASU 2016-13), which changes the impairment model for most financial assets. This Update is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recording of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments held by financial institutions and other organizations. The underlying premise of the Update is that financial assets measured at amortized cost should be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, through an allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. The allowance for credit losses should reflect management’s current estimate of credit losses that are expected to occur over the remaining life of a financial asset. The income statement will be ~~effected~~affected for the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as the expected increases or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. ~~ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018.~~ With certain exceptions, transition to the new requirements will be through a cumulative effect adjustment to opening retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted.

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842). This update defers the effective date of ASU 2016-13 for SEC filers that are eligible to be smaller reporting companies, non-SEC filers, and all other companies to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company, ~~is currently evaluating~~as a smaller reporting company, continues to evaluate the impact that the Update will have on our consolidated financial statements. We are currently working with an industry leading third-party consultant and software provider to assist us in the implementation of this standard. We expect to recognize a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for loan losses as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the new standard is effective, but cannot yet determine the magnitude of any such one-time adjustment or the overall impact of the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements. The overall impact of the amendment will be affected by the portfolio composition and quality at the adoption date as well as economic conditions and forecasts at that time.

~~In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-03 “~~Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (Topic 250) and Investments — Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the September 22, 2016 and November 17, 2016 EITF Meetings.” ASU 2017-03 provides amendments that add paragraph 250-10-S99-6 which includes the text of “SEC Staff Announcement: Disclosure of the Impact That Recently Issued Accounting Standards Will Have on the Financial Statements of a Registrant When Such Standards Are Adopted in a Future Period (in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) Topic 11.M). This announcement applies to ASU No. 2014-09,~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)~~~~; ASU No. 2016-02,~~~~Leases (Topic 842)~~~~; and ASU 2016-03,~~~~Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments~~, and subsequent amendments. The Company has enhanced its disclosures regarding the impact that recently issued accounting standards adopted in a future period will have on its accounting and disclosures in this footnote.

~~In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07,~~~~Compensation — Retirement Benefits (Topic 715)~~. The amendments in this Update require that an employer report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost as defined in paragraphs 715-30-35-4 and 715-60-35-9 are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented. If a separate line item or items are used to present the other components of net benefit cost, that line item or items must be appropriately described. If a separate line item or items are not used, the line item or items used in the income statement to present the other components of net benefit cost must be disclosed. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

~~In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08,~~~~Receivables — Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20).~~ The amendments in this Update shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. Specifically, the amendments require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The amendments do not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments

Revenue Recognition

ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers — Topic 606, requires the Company to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be ~~reflected~~entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers at the time the transfer of goods or services takes place. Management determined that the primary sources of revenue associated with financial instruments, including interest and fee income on loans and interest on investments, along with certain noninterest revenue sources including net realized gains (losses) on investment securities, mortgage related fees, net gains on loans held for sale, and bank owned life insurance are not within the scope of Topic 606. These sources of revenue cumulatively comprise 79.5% of the total revenue of the Company.

Non-interest income within the scope of Topic 606 are as follows:

•

Wealth management fees — Wealth management fee income is primarily comprised of fees earned from the management and administration of trusts and customer investment portfolios. The Company’s performance obligation is generally satisfied over a period of time and the resulting fees are billed monthly or quarterly, based upon the month end market value of the assets under management. Payment is generally received after month end through a direct charge to customers’ accounts. Due to this delay in payment, a receivable of $825,000 has been established as of March 31, 2020 and is included in other assets on the ~~beginning~~Consolidated Balance Sheets in order to properly recognize the revenue earned but not yet received. Other performance obligations (such as delivery of account statements to customers) are generally considered immaterial to the overall transactions price. Commissions on transactions are recognized on a trade-date basis as the performance obligation is satisfied at the point in time in which the trade is processed. Also included within wealth management fees are commissions from the sale of mutual funds, annuities, and life insurance products. Commissions on the sale of mutual funds, annuities, and life insurance products are recognized when sold, which is when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation.

•

Service charges on deposit accounts — The Company has contracts with its deposit account customers where fees are charged for certain items or services. Service charges include account analysis fees, monthly service fees, overdraft fees, and other deposit account related fees. Revenue related to account analysis fees and service fees is recognized on a monthly basis as the Company has an unconditional right to the fee consideration. Fees attributable to specific performance obligations of the ~~fiscal year~~Company (i.e. overdraft fees, etc.) are recognized at a defined point in time based on completion of the requested service or transaction.

•

Other non-interest income — Other non-interest income consists of other recurring revenue streams such as safe deposit box rental fees, gain (loss) on sale of other real estate owned and other miscellaneous revenue streams. Safe deposit box rental fees are charged to the customer on an annual basis and recognized when billed. However, if the safe deposit box rental fee is prepaid (i.e. paid prior to issuance of annual bill), the revenue is recognized upon receipt of payment. The Company has determined that ~~includes that interim period. An entity should apply the amendments in this Update~~since rentals and renewals occur consistently over time, revenue is recognized on a ~~modified retrospective~~ basis ~~through a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as~~consistent with the duration of the ~~beginning~~performance obligation. Gains and losses on the sale of other real estate owned are recognized at the completion of the ~~period~~property sale when the buyer obtains control of ~~adoption. Additionally, in~~ the ~~period~~real estate and all the performance obligations of ~~adoption, an entity should provide disclosures about a change in accounting principle. This Update is not expected to~~the Company have ~~a significant impact on~~been satisfied.

The unrealized losses are primarily a result of increases in market yields from the time of purchase. In general, as market yields rise, the value of securities will decrease; as market yields fall, the fair value of securities will increase. There are ~~104~~34 positions that are considered temporarily impaired at ~~September 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2020. Management generally views changes in fair value caused by changes in interest rates as temporary; therefore, these securities have not been classified as other-than-temporarily impaired. Management has also concluded that based on current information we expect to continue to receive scheduled interest payments as well as the entire principal balance. Furthermore, management does not intend to sell these securities and does not believe it will be required to sell these securities before they recover in ~~value.~~

Contractual maturities of securities at ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2020 are shown below (in thousands). Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties. The weighted average duration of the total investment securities portfolio at ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2020 is ~~44.2~~24.7 months and is ~~higher~~lower than the duration at December 31, ~~2016~~2019 which was ~~41.2~~36.9 months. The duration remains within our internal established guideline range of 24 to 60 months which we believe is appropriate to maintain proper levels of liquidity, interest rate risk, market valuation sensitivity and profitability.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company reported $386,000 and $366,000, respectively, of equity securities within other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These equity securities are held within a nonqualified deferred compensation plan in which a select group of executives of the Company can participate. An eligible executive can defer a certain percentage of their current salary to be placed into the plan and held within a rabbi trust. The assets of the rabbi trust are invested in various publicly listed mutual funds. The gain or loss on the equity securities (both realized and unrealized) is reported within other income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the first quarter of 2020, the Company recorded a realized gain of $6,000 and an unrealized loss of $6,000 was recognized in income on these equity securities. No gain or loss on equity securities (both realized and unrealized) was recognized during the first quarter of 2019. Additionally, the Company has recognized a deferred compensation liability, which is equal to the balance of the equity securities and is reported within other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are not fully reflected in the Company’s first quarter operating results. Certain loans within our commercial and commercial real estate portfolios are expected to be disproportionately adversely affected by the pandemic. Due to mandatory lockdowns and travel restrictions, certain industries, such as hospitality, travel, food service and restaurants and bars, may suffer greater losses as a result of COVID-19. The following table provides information regarding our potential COVID-19 risk concentrations for commercial and commercial real estate loans by industry type at March 31, 2020 (in thousands).

The Company recorded a $175,000 provision expense for loan losses in the first quarter of 2020 compared to a $400,000 provision recovery in the first quarter of 2019. The 2020 provision reflects the loan growth experienced since last year along with our decision to strengthen certain qualitative factors within our allowance for loan losses calculation due to the economic uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. While future losses are possible due to the COVID-19 pandemic, losses were not incurred as of March 31, 2020 which is why the provision for the period isn’t higher. For the first three months of 2020, the Company experienced net loan charge-offs of $120,000, or 0.06% of total loans, compared to net loan charge-offs of $164,000, or 0.08% of total loans, in the first three months of 2019. Overall, the Company’s asset quality remains strong as its non-performing assets totaled $2.2 million, or only 0.26% of total loans, at March 31, 2020. The allowance for loan losses provided 416% coverage of non-performing assets, and 1.06% of total loans, at March 31, 2020, compared to 397% coverage of non-performing assets, and 1.05% of total loans, at December 31, 2019.

The provision expense, charge-offs and recoveries were at more typical levels in the first nine months of 2017. The allocation amount to commercial loans secured by real estate (CRE) in the third quarter of 2017 reflects an improvement in the level of delinquency and the level of classified assets since the end of the second quarter of 2017 as one large CRE credit was upgraded and another transferred into non-accrual status (see further discussion in the loan quality section of the MD&A). The substantially higher than typical provision and net loan charge-offs in the first three months 2016 for the commercial portfolio was necessary to resolve the Company’s only meaningful direct loan exposure to the energy industry. These loans were related to a single borrower in the fracking industry who had filed for bankruptcy protection in the fourth quarter of 2015. With the bankruptcy changing from Chapter 11 (reorganization) to Chapter 7 (liquidation) late in the first quarter of 2016, the Company concluded that its previously established reserves on these non-accrual loans were not sufficient to cover the discounted collateral values that resulted from the liquidation process.

8. Allowance for Loan Losses – (continued)

Management evaluates for possible impairment any individual loan in the commercial or commercial real estate segment ~~with a loan balance in excess of $100,000~~ that is in nonaccrual status or classified as a Troubled Debt Restructure (TDR). In addition, consumer and residential mortgage loans with a balance of $150,000 or more are evaluated for impairment. Loans are considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in evaluating impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. The Company does not separately evaluate individual consumer and residential mortgage loans for impairment, unless such loans are part of a larger relationship that is impaired, or are classified as a TDR.

Once the determination has been made that a loan is impaired, the determination of whether a specific allocation of the allowance is necessary is measured by comparing the recorded investment in the loan to the fair value of the loan using one of three methods: (a) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; (b) the loan’s observable market price; or (c) the fair value of the collateral less selling costs for collateral dependent loans. The method is selected on a loan-by-loan basis, with management primarily utilizing the fair value of collateral method. The evaluation of the need and amount of a specific allocation of the allowance and whether a loan can be removed from impairment status is made on a quarterly basis. The Company’s policy for recognizing interest income on impaired loans does not differ from its overall policy for interest recognition.

The need for an updated appraisal on collateral dependent loans is determined on a case-by-case basis. The useful life of an appraisal or evaluation will vary depending upon the circumstances of the property and the economic conditions in the marketplace. A new appraisal is not required if there is an existing appraisal which, along with other information, is sufficient to determine a reasonable value for the property and to support an appropriate and adequate allowance for loan losses. At a minimum, annual documented reevaluation of the property is completed by the Bank’s internal ~~Loan Review~~Assigned Risk Department to support the value of the property.

When reviewing an appraisal associated with an existing ~~collateral~~ real estate collateral dependent transaction, the Bank’s internal Assigned Risk Department must determine if there have been material changes to the underlying assumptions in the appraisal which affect the original estimate of value. Some of the factors that could cause material changes to reported values include:

•

the passage of time;

•

the volatility of the local market;

•

the availability of financing;

•

natural disasters;

•

the inventory of competing properties;

•

new improvements to, or lack of maintenance of, the subject property or competing properties upon physical inspection by the Bank;

•

changes in underlying economic and market assumptions, such as material changes in current and projected vacancy, absorption rates, capitalization rates, lease terms, rental rates, sales prices, concessions, construction overruns and delays, zoning changes, etc.; and/or

•

environmental contamination.

8. Allowance for Loan Losses – (continued)

The value of the property is adjusted to appropriately reflect the above listed factors and the value is discounted to reflect the value impact of a forced or distressed sale, any outstanding senior liens, any outstanding unpaid real estate taxes, transfer taxes and closing costs that would occur with sale of the real estate. If the Assigned Risk Department personnel determine that a reasonable value cannot be derived based on available information, a new appraisal is ordered. The determination of the need for a new appraisal, versus completion of a property valuation by the Bank’s Assigned Risk Department personnel, rests with the Assigned Risk Department and not the originating account officer.

8. Allowance for Loan Losses – (continued)

Management uses a ~~nine point~~nine-point internal risk rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio. The first six categories are considered not criticized. The first five “Pass” categories are aggregated, while the Pass-6, Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful categories are disaggregated to

separate pools. The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions. The Special Mention category includes assets that are currently protected but are potentially weak, resulting in an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a Substandard classification. Loans in the Substandard category have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt, and have a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if the weaknesses are not corrected. All loans greater than 90 days past due, or for which any portion of the loan represents a specific allocation of the allowance for loan losses are placed in Substandard or Doubtful.

To help ensure that risk ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay a loan as agreed, the Company has a structured loan rating process, which dictates that, at a minimum, credit reviews are mandatory for all commercial and commercial mortgage loan relationships with aggregate balances in excess of ~~$250,000~~$1,000,000 within a 12-month period. Generally, consumer and residential mortgage loans are included in the Pass categories unless a specific action, such as bankruptcy, delinquency, or death occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit event. The Company’s commercial relationship managers are responsible for the timely and accurate risk rating of the loans in their portfolios at origination and on an ongoing basis. Risk ratings are assigned by the account officer, but require independent review and rating concurrence from the Company’s internal Loan Review Department. The Loan Review Department is an experienced, independent function which reports directly to the Board’s Audit Committee. The scope of commercial portfolio coverage by the Loan Review Department is defined and presented to the Audit Committee for approval on an annual basis. The approved scope of coverage for ~~2017~~2020 requires review of a minimum ~~range~~ of ~~50% to 55%~~40% of the commercial loan portfolio.

In addition to loan monitoring by the account officer and Loan Review Department, the Company also requires presentation of all credits rated Pass-6 with aggregate balances greater than ~~$1,000,000,~~$2,000,000, all credits rated Special Mention or Substandard with aggregate balances greater than $250,000, and all credits rated Doubtful with aggregate balances greater than $100,000 on an individual basis to the Company’s Loan Loss Reserve Committee on a quarterly basis. Additionally, the Asset Quality Task Force, which is a group comprised of senior level personnel, meets monthly to monitor the status of problem loans.

It is generally the policy of the Bank that the outstanding balance of any residential mortgage loan that exceeds 90-days past due as to principal and/or interest is transferred to non-accrual status and an evaluation is completed to determine the fair value of the collateral less selling costs, unless the balance is minor.

The Company experienced an increase in loan delinquency during the first quarter of 2020. The increase was primarily due to the unexpected death of a borrower late in 2019, which was previously reported in our Form 10-K dated December 31, 2019. The estate, which is made up of significant real estate holdings and other unique assets, is currently in the process of liquidation. Therefore, this $6.3 million commercial and industrial loan exhibited delinquency during the quarter.

An allowance for loan losses (“ALL”) is maintained to support loan growth and cover charge-offs from the loan portfolio. The ALL is based on management’s continuing evaluation of the risk characteristics and credit quality of the loan portfolio, assessment of current economic conditions, diversification and size of the portfolio, adequacy of collateral, past and anticipated loss experience, and the amount of non-performing loans.

Loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment are analyzed with general allowances being made as appropriate. For general allowances, historical loss trends are used in the estimation of losses in the current portfolio. These historical loss amounts are complemented by consideration of other qualitative factors.

Management tracks the historical net charge-off activity at each risk rating grade level for the entire commercial portfolio and at the aggregate level for the consumer, residential mortgage and small business portfolios. A historical charge-off factor is calculated utilizing a rolling 12 consecutive historical quarters for the commercial portfolios. This historical charge-off factor for the consumer, residential mortgage and small business portfolios are based on a ~~three year~~three-year historical average of actual loss experience.

The Company uses a comprehensive methodology and procedural discipline to maintain an ALL to absorb inherent losses in the loan portfolio. The Company believes this is a critical accounting policy since it involves significant estimates and judgments. The allowance consists of three elements: 1)(1) an allowance established on specifically identified problem loans, 2)(2) formula driven general reserves established for loan categories based upon historical loss experience and other qualitative factors which include delinquency, non-performing and TDR loans, loan trends, economic trends, concentrations of credit, trends in loan volume, experience and depth of management, examination and audit results, effects of any changes in lending policies, and trends in policy, financial information, and documentation exceptions, and 3)(3) a general risk reserve which provides support for variance from our assessment of the previously listed qualitative factors, provides protection against credit risks resulting from other inherent risk factors contained in the Company’s loan portfolio, and recognizes the model and estimation risk associated with the specific and formula driven allowances. The qualitative factors used in the formula driven general reserves are evaluated quarterly (and revised if necessary) by the Company’s management to establish allocations which accommodate each of the listed risk factors.

“Pass” rated credits are segregated from “Criticized” and “Classified” credits for the application of qualitative factors.

Management reviews the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis using a defined, consistently applied process in order to make appropriate and timely adjustments to the ALL.

Consistent with accounting and regulatory guidance, the Bank recognizes a TDR when the Bank, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that would not normally be considered. Regardless of the form of concession granted, the Bank’s objective in offering a TDR is to increase the probability of repayment of the borrower’s loan.

~~To be considered a TDR,both~~ ~~of the following criteria must be met:~~

•

~~the borrower must be experiencing financial difficulties;and~~

~~the Bank, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that would not otherwise be considered.~~

~~Factors that indicate a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties include, but are not limited to:~~

~~the borrower is currently in default on their loan(s);~~

~~the borrower has filed for bankruptcy;~~

9. Non-performing Assets Including Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDR) – (continued)

•

~~the borrower has insufficient cash flows to service their loan(s);and~~

~~the borrower is unable to obtain refinancing from other sources at a market rate similar to rates available to a non-troubled debtor.~~

~~Factors that indicate that a concession has been granted include, but are not limited to:~~

•

~~the borrower is granted an interest rate reduction to a level below market rates for debt with similar risk;~~or

the borrower is granted a material maturity date extension, or extension of the amortization plan to provide payment relief. For purposes of this policy, a material maturity date extension will generally include any maturity date extension, or the aggregate of multiple consecutive maturity date extensions, that exceed 120 days. A restructuring that results in an insignificant delay in payment, i.e. 120 days or less, is not necessarily a TDR. Insignificant payment delays occur when the amount of the restructured payments subject to the delay is insignificant relative to the unpaid principal or collateral value, and will result in an insignificant shortfall in the originally scheduled contractual amount due, and/or the delay in timing of the restructured payment period is insignificant relative to the frequency of payments, the original maturity or the original amortization.

The determination of whether a restructured loan is a TDR requires consideration of all of the facts and circumstances surrounding the modification. No single factor is determinative of whether a restructuring is a TDR. An overall general decline in the economy or some deterioration in a borrower’s financial condition does not automatically mean that the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Accordingly, determination of whether a modification is a TDR involves a large degree of judgment.

Lease Commitments

The Company has operating and financing leases for several office locations and equipment. Several assumptions and judgments were made when applying the requirements of ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) to the Company’s lease commitments, including the allocation of consideration in the contracts between lease and non-lease components, determination of the lease term, and determination of the discount rate used in calculating the present value of the lease payments.

~~On August 11, 2011, pursuant~~

Many of our leases include both lease (e.g., minimum rent payments) and non-lease components, such as common area maintenance charges, utilities, real estate taxes, and insurance. The Company has elected to account for the variable non-lease components separately from the lease component. Such variable non-lease components are reported in net occupancy expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations when incurred. These variable non-lease components were excluded from the calculation of the present value of the remaining lease payments, therefore, they are not included in the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table presents the lease cost associated with both operating and financing leases for the three month periods ending March 31, 2020 and 2019 (in thousands).

Certain of the Company’s leases contain options to renew the lease after the initial term. Management considers the Company’s historical pattern of exercising renewal options on leases and the performance of the leased locations, when determining whether it is reasonably certain that the leases will be renewed. If management concludes that there is reasonable certainty about the renewal option, it is included in the calculation of the remaining term of each applicable lease. The discount rate utilized in calculating the present value of the remaining lease payments for each lease was the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh advance rate corresponding to the ~~Small Business Lending Fund (SBLF),~~remaining maturity of the lease. The following table presents the weighted-average remaining lease term and discount rate for the leases outstanding at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Under Topic 842, the lessee can elect to not record on the Consolidated Balance Sheets a lease whose term is twelve months or less and does not include a purchase option that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company ~~issued and sold~~had one short-term equipment lease which it has elected to not record on the US Treasury 21,000 shares of its Senior Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series E (Series E Preferred Stock) for the aggregate proceeds of $21 million. The SBLF was a voluntary program sponsored by the US Treasury that encouraged small business lending by providing capital to qualified community banks at favorable rates. The Company used the proceeds from the Series E Preferred Stock issued to the US Treasury to repurchase all 21,000 shares of its outstanding preferred shares previously issued to the US Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program.

On January 27, 2016, the Company redeemed the Series E Preferred Stock, at a redemption price of 100% of the liquidation amount plus accrued but unpaid dividends, after receiving approval from its federal banking regulator and the US Treasury.

13. Regulatory Capital

The Company is subject to various capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. For a more detailed discussion see the Capital Resources section of ~~the MD&A.~~

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A).

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total, common equity tier 1, and ~~Tier~~tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ~~Tier~~(as defined) and tier 1 capital to average ~~assets, and common equity Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (RWA) (as defined).~~assets. Additionally, under Basel III rules, the decision was made to opt-out of including accumulated other comprehensive income in regulatory capital. As of ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2020, the Bank was categorized as ~~“Well Capitalized”~~“well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action promulgated by the Federal Reserve. The Company believes that no conditions or events have occurred that would change this conclusion as of such date. To be categorized as ~~Well Capitalized,~~well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum ~~Total Capital, Common Equity Tier~~total capital, common equity tier 1 ~~Capital, Tier~~capital, tier 1 ~~Capital,~~capital, and ~~Tier~~tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the ~~table.~~ table (in thousands, except ratios).

14. DERIVATIVE HEDGING INSTRUMENTS

The Company can use various interest rate contracts, such as interest rate swaps, caps, floors and swaptions to help manage interest rate and market valuation risk exposure, which is incurred in normal recurrent banking activities. The Company can use derivative instruments, primarily interest rate swaps, to manage interest rate risk and match the rates on certain assets by hedging the fair value of certain fixed rate debt, which converts the debt to variable rates and by hedging the cash flow variability associated with certain variable rate debt by converting the debt to fixed rates.

To accommodate the needs of our customers and support the Company’s asset/liability positioning, we ~~entered~~may enter into interest rate swap agreements with customers and a large financial institution that specializes in these types of ~~transactions in the first nine months of 2017.~~transactions. These arrangements involve the exchange of interest payments based on the notional amounts. The Company entered into floating rate loans and fixed rate swaps with our customers. ~~Simultaneously, the Company entered into an offsetting fixed rate swaps with PNC.~~

14. DERIVATIVE HEDGING INSTRUMENTS – (continued)

Simultaneously, the Company entered into offsetting fixed rate swaps with Pittsburgh National Bank (PNC). In connection with each swap transaction, the Company agrees to pay interest to the customer on a notional amount at a variable interest rate and receive interest from the customer on the same notional amount at a fixed interest rate. At the same time, the Company agrees to pay PNC the same fixed interest rate on the same notional amount and receive the same variable interest rate on the same notional amount. These transactions allow the Company’s customers to effectively convert a variable rate loan to a fixed rate. Because the Company acts as an intermediary for its customers, changes in the fair value of the underlying derivative contracts offset each other and do not significantly impact the Company’s results of operations. ~~The Company received $139,000 in fees~~

These swaps are considered free-standing derivatives and are reported at fair value within other assets and other liabilities on the ~~transactions.~~

Segment Results

The financial performance of the Company is also monitored by an internal funds transfer pricing profitability measurement system which produces line of business results and key performance measures. The Company’s major business units include ~~retail~~community banking, ~~commercial banking, trust,~~wealth management, and investment/parent. The reported results reflect the underlying economics of the business segments. Expenses for centrally provided services are allocated based upon the cost and estimated usage of those services. The businesses are match-funded and interest rate risk is centrally managed and accounted for within the investment/parent business segment. The key performance measure the Company focuses on for each business segment is net income contribution.

The community banking segment includes both retail and commercial banking activities. Retail banking includes the deposit-gathering branch franchise and lending to both individuals and small businesses. Lending activities include residential mortgage loans, direct consumer loans, and ~~local~~small business

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to these commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by their contractual amounts. The Bank uses the same credit and collateral policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as for all other lending.

Additionally, the Company is also subject to a number of asserted and unasserted potential claims encountered in the normal course of business.

Pension Benefits

The Company has a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering certain employees who work at least 1,000 hours per year. The participants ~~shall~~ have a vested interest in their accrued benefit after five full years of service. The benefits of the plan are based upon the employee’s years of service and average annual earnings for the highest five consecutive calendar years during the final ~~ten year~~ten-year period of employment. Plan assets are primarily debt securities (including US Treasury and Agency securities, corporate notes and bonds), listed common stocks (including shares of AmeriServ Financial, Inc. common stock which is limited to 10% of the plan’s assets), mutual funds, and short-term cash equivalent instruments. The net periodic pension cost for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2020 and ~~2016~~2019 were as follows (in thousands):

The Company implemented a soft freeze of its defined benefit pension plan to provide that non-union employees hired on or after January 1, 2013 and union employees hired on or after January 1, 2014 are not eligible to participate in the pension plan. Instead, such employees are eligible to participate in a qualified 401(k) plan. This change was made to help reduce pension costs in future periods.

Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements

and Financial Instruments

The following disclosures establish a hierarchal disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observability utilized in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three broad levels defined within this hierarchy are as follows:

Level I: Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.

Level II: Pricing inputs are other than the quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities includes items for which quoted prices are available but traded less frequently and items that are fair-valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.

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

Assets and Liability Measured and Recorded on a Recurring Basis

Equity securities are reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 inputs. These securities are mutual funds held within a rabbi trust for the Company’s executive deferred compensation plan. The mutual funds held are open-end funds that are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These funds are required to publish their daily net asset value and to transact at that price.

Securities classified as available for sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quoted market spreads, cash flows, the US Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.

The fair values of the fair value swaps used for interest rate risk management represents the amount the Company would expect to receive or pay to terminate such agreements. These fair values are based on an external derivative valuation model using data inputs as of the valuation date and classified Level 2.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

For the Company, as for most financial institutions, approximately 90% of its assets and liabilities are considered financial instruments. Many of the Company’s financial instruments, however, lack an available trading market characterized by a willing buyer and willing seller engaging in an exchange transaction. Therefore, significant estimates and present value calculations were used by the Company for the purpose of this disclosure.

~~The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, regulatory stock, accrued interest income receivable, short-term borrowings, and accrued interest payable are equal to the current carrying value.~~

The fair value of investment securities is equal to the available quoted market price for similar securities. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quoted market spreads, cash flows, the US Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things. The Level 3 securities are valued by discounted cash flows using the US Treasury rate for the remaining term of the securities.

~~Loans held for sale are priced individually at market rates on the day that the loan is locked for commitment with an investor.~~ All loans in the held for sale account conform to Fannie Mae underwriting guidelines, with the specific intent of the loan being purchased by an investor at the predetermined rate structure. Loans in the held for sale account have specific delivery dates that must be executed to protect the pricing commitment (typically a 30, 45, or 60 day lock period).

The net loan portfolio has been valued using a present value discounted cash flow. The discount rate used in these calculations is based upon the treasury yield curve adjusted for non-interest operating costs, credit loss, current market prices and assumed prepayment risk.

~~The fair value of bank owned life insurance is based upon the cash surrender value of the underlying policies and matches the book value.~~

Deposits with stated maturities have been valued using a present value discounted cash flow with a discount rate approximating current market for similar assets and liabilities. Deposits with no stated maturities have an estimated fair value equal to both the amount payable on demand and the recorded book balance.

~~The fair value of all~~ other borrowings ~~is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rates are estimated using rates currently offered for similar instruments with similar remaining maturities.~~

The carrying value, represented by the net deferred fee arising from the unrecognized commitment, and the fair value, determined by discounting the remaining contractual fee over the term of the commitment using fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements with similar credit risk, is not considered material for disclosure. The contractual amounts of unfunded commitments are presented in Note 16.

Changes in assumptions or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on these estimated fair values. The Company’s remaining assets and liabilities which are not considered financial instruments have not been valued differently than has been customary under historical cost accounting.

Subsequent Events Related to the COVID-19 Pandemic

Paycheck Protection Program

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, or CARES Act, was signed into law on March 27, 2020, and provides over $2.0 trillion in emergency economic relief to individuals and businesses impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act authorized the Small Business Administration (SBA) to temporarily guarantee loans under a new 7(a) program called the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). As a qualified SBA lender, the Company was automatically authorized to originate PPP loans.

An eligible business can apply for a PPP loan up to the greater of: (1) 2.5 times its average monthly “payroll costs;” or (2) $10.0 million. PPP loans will have: (a) an interest rate of 1.0%, (b) a two-year loan term to maturity; and (c) principal and interest payments deferred for six months from the date of

disbursement. The SBA will guarantee 100% of the PPP loans made to eligible borrowers. The entire principal amount of the borrower’s PPP loan, including any accrued interest, is eligible to be reduced by the loan forgiveness amount under the PPP so long as employee and compensation levels of the business are maintained and 75% of the loan proceeds are used for payroll expenses, with the remaining 25% of the loan proceeds used for other qualifying expenses.

As of May 4, 2020, the Company has obtained SBA approval for approximately 400 PPP loans totaling in excess of $61 million. These loans will generate approximately $1.9 million in fee income for the Company.

Loan Modifications Related to COVID-19

Under section 4013 of the CARES Act, loans less than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019 will be considered current for COVID-19 modifications. A financial institution can then suspend the requirements under GAAP for loan modifications related to COVID-19 that would otherwise be categorized as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR), and suspend any determination of a loan modified as a result of COVID-19 as being a TDR, including the requirement to determine impairment for accounting purposes. Financial institutions wishing to utilize this authority must make a policy election, which applies to any COVID-19 modification made between March 1, 2020 and the earlier of either December 31, 2020 or the 60th day after the end of the COVID-19 national emergency. Similarly, the Financial Accounting Standards Board has confirmed that short-term modifications made on a good-faith basis in response to COVID-19 to loan customers who were current prior to any relief are not TDRs.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has begun to prudently execute loan modifications for existing loan customers. The following table presents information regarding loans for which payment relief has been requested, as of May 4, 2020, related to COVID-19.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (“~~M.D. & A.”~~MD&A”)

…~~2017 THIRD~~..2020 FIRST QUARTER SUMMARY OVERVIEW… It is common knowledge that in the Northeastern region that the cold winters hamper economic activity. Then a good bit of the spring is devoted to repairing and replacing. However, as the thermometer recovers, so does the economy. The third..AmeriServ reported first quarter ~~at AmeriServ demonstrated the impact of enterprises and consumers becoming actively engaged in their businesses. On October 17, 2017, AmeriServ announced~~2020 net income of ~~$1,551,000~~$1,409,000, or $0.08 per share. ~~Those~~This represents a 25.0%, or $469,000, decrease from the first quarter of 2019 when net income totaled $1,878,000, or $0.11 per share.

These 2020 results represent a strong recovery from the fourth quarter of 2019. In the fourth quarter, the Company experienced two negative events which reduced net income to $669,000 or $0.04 per diluted share. Therefore, the 2020 net income of $1,409,000 and $0.08 per diluted common share represented double the result of the fourth quarter of 2019. This supports the Company’s position that the loss on the CRA investment, and the events surrounding the unexpected death of a large borrower, did not weaken asset quality.

Any review of the first quarter of 2020 would not be complete without reference to the international pandemic. For the most part, January and February were normal. In the northern part of the U.S., the winter season always experiences a reduction in economic activity. However, in 2020, the events of COVID-19 began to appear in late January and intensify in February, to the degree that, in mid-March, the Federal and state governments declared a virtual shut down of normal activities everywhere. While some business enterprises such as banks were deemed to be essential, their normal activities were subject to substantial change due to governmental restrictions. All AmeriServ banking office lobbies have been closed since March 23, 2020 to walk-in traffic except by appointment. On any given day, one third or more of the AmeriServ employee work force have been working remotely from home using computers to maintain customer access on a virtual basis. Increasingly, transactions are ~~12% higher~~being routed through electronic means using ATMs, online banking and email communications. Fortunately, AmeriServ has been using these technologies for years with the support of FIS (Fidelity Information Services), the largest provider of technology to the entire banking industry.

This is not nearly the entire story. As encouraged by Federal regulatory authorities, AmeriServ has been actively participating in the numerous programs offered by the Administration, by Congress and by the Federal Reserve System. For example, as of April 24, 2020, AmeriServ has assisted approximately 270 customers to submit and receive funding of over $43 million under the Paycheck Protection Program. Recognizing the economic impact of COVID-19 on the small and medium sized businesses that AmeriServ services, there have been interim modifications made to more than 20% of the outstanding balance of existing business loans so that these businesses can survive and fill their role as one of the regional job creators in the local economy. This effort has only been possible because of the tremendous dedication of the AmeriServ workforce.

It is also interesting to note that in spite of these events, our first quarter 2020 average loan totals have remained stable with the fourth quarter of 2019, our deposit totals have remained around $980 million, on average, exactly where they have been since the second quarter of ~~2017~~2019. The action of the Federal Reserve System to reduce interest rates has reduced interest revenue but interest expense has also declined and ~~46% higher than~~should decline further. There are expenses to be provided for because of COVID-19 but so far non-interest expenses are only 3% above the ~~third~~totals for the same quarter in 2019.

Wealth management revenues were 6.6% above 2019 even with the increased volatility of ~~2016. Numbers like these do not just happen because~~financial markets. Since full year 2019 represented a record year for wealth management fee income, it ~~is summer. This kind~~will be a challenge for them to maintain that pace especially with the recent decline in equity markets. However, there are nine months remaining in 2020 in which to search for positive investment opportunities for our clients and ourselves.

The major source of ~~progress~~concern is the ~~result~~very low interest rates and the impact that these low interest rates will have on our net interest margin. But the AmeriServ balance sheet is conservative and strong. AmeriServ’s liquidity is strong and increasing, and AmeriServ’s asset quality for both loans and securities is above that of ~~careful planning~~our peers in this industry.

Once again, the issue before us remains COVID-19. We have supported our customers. We hope to return to the agenda that prevailed prior to COVID-19 soon. For now, we will focus on safe and ~~execution by AmeriServ’s knowledgeable bankers.~~

~~The loan portfolio attained the second highest quarterly average level since the third quarter of 2016. Deposits on average~~sound banking and intelligent involvement in the ~~third quarter of 2017 were at an all-time record~~programs our government is promoting and at $981 million are almost within reach of one billion for the first time ever. However, these are static numbers measured at a point in time but revenues were not static. Revenues measure the payments by third party customers for products and services. In the third quarter of 2017, AmeriServ recorded a 5% increase in gross revenues when compared with the third quarter of 2016. At the very same time through the first nine months of 2017, AmeriServ non-interest expenses have declined by almost $600,000. This combination of increasing revenues and declining expenses enabled AmeriServ to report its best quarter since the third quarter of 2015.

The Federal Reserve has begun to increase interest rates from the virtually zero level of the last eight years. While it has been an on again, off again proposition at the Fed, national interest rates have been on the increase since a year ago. Management took advantage of these higher rates to begin to reformat the securities portfolio. This process has produced a 31% increase in the securities portfolio revenue over the third quarter of 2016, while controlling the level of risk in the portfolio.

Banking is not a static industry, for it is a reflection of the dynamics at work in the national economy, the regional economy and the local economy. Each of these economies is a reflection of the millions of individual decisions by Americans pursuing their own separate initiatives. It then becomes the responsibility of the Board and this Management team to plot a course which accommodates these complexities. There is no formula which has ever been fool proof. Rather it is the daily balancing of risk against reward that decides the winners and losers.

Given these larger forces at work, AmeriServ is and should conduct itself as a financial franchise in transition. It has grown from a weak source of loans in its markets to an active lender. AmeriServ has now completed over four consecutive years when it has loaned over 90% of its deposits to smaller and mid-sized local and regional business and consumers. This is a full 10% more than similar sized community banks in the United States. We believe lending to small businesses is our role in keeping the economy recovering from its series of negative events.

~~Also during those same four years of active lending, AmeriServ’s loan losses have been less than a third of the losses of similar sized community banks in the United States.~~

Concurrently, AmeriServ’s stand-alone Trust and Wealth Management Company has been transitioning. It now has approximately $2 billion of assets under management and administration. More than half of that $2 billion is investments in retirement savings programs. AmeriServ provides investment guidance, safekeeping and administrative support so that our friends and neighbors can devote their energies to their professions and careers. It is a very positive program and one which we are proud to watch grow.

During the first nine months of 2017, the AmeriServ Board of Directors conducted a complete review of its structure and activities. The Board confirmed its committee-oriented management structure. It defined its role as one of oversight and not of management. It is clear that the role of the Board is to represent not themselves but every AmeriServ shareholder. The full Board discussed this report of the Corporate Governance Committee and adopted it unanimously on July 15, 2017. This vote has set in motion a transition within the Board to be certain that the interest of the shareholders should be pre-eminent throughout the Company.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The economy has been continuing its slow recovery so this has been a good time to analyze the course and to structure the Company to be both relevant and rewarding in the days ahead. A new strategic plan, a reconstituted Board of Directors, and a rededication to continue the improvements in profitability have resulted. The positive impact has been demonstrated by the third quarter results. The eight cents level of earnings per share during the quarter provides a solid base for the hope of continued growth in earnings.

…~~NET~~..NET INTEREST INCOME AND MARGIN…..The Company’s net interest income represents the amount by which interest income on average earning assets exceeds interest paid on average interest bearing liabilities. Net interest income is a primary source of the Company’s earnings, and it is effected by interest rate fluctuations as well as changes in the amount and mix of average earning assets and average interest bearing liabilities.

The Company’s net interest income in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2020 increased by ~~$431,000,~~$94,000, or ~~5.1%~~1.1%, from the prior year’s ~~third~~first quarter. The Company’s net interest margin of 3.21% for the first quarter ~~while~~of 2020 was three basis points lower than the net interest margin ~~was 3.28%~~of 3.24% for the first quarter ~~representing an improvement~~ of 132019. The change in the U.S. Treasury yield curve between years impacted the Company’s net interest margin. The overall U.S. Treasury yield curve shifted downward since last year while the shape of the curve remained relatively flat, demonstrating inversion in certain segments at various times during the first quarter of 2020. Late in the quarter, the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic caused the yield curve to move down further. Correspondingly, the Federal Reserve’s actions to lower the fed funds rate by 150 basis ~~points.~~points in March, caused the short end of the yield curve to decrease and result in the curve exhibiting a more normal steeper shape.

Total earning assets increased in the first quarter of 2020 and partially offset the unfavorable impact that the lower level of national interest rates had on total interest income. The ~~2017~~ increase in total average earning assets was due to growth in total loans and short-term investments while total investment securities decreased. Interest bearing deposits increased and resulted in less reliance on higher cost borrowed funds. Effective management of our funding costs along with the downward repricing of certain interest bearing liabilities tied to market indexes resulted in total interest expense decreasing between years. The decrease to total interest expense more than offset the decrease in total interest income resulting in net interest income is a result of a higher level of total earning assets and favorable balance sheet positioning which has contributed to the improved net interest margin performance. The Company continues to grow earning assets while also limiting increases in its cost of funds through disciplined deposit pricing. Specifically, for the quarter, the earning asset growth occurred in the investment securities portfolio while the loan portfolio remained relatively stable. increasing between years.

Total ~~investment securities~~loans averaged ~~$175~~$877 million in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2020 which ~~is $26.2~~was $17 million, or ~~17.6%~~2.0%, higher than the ~~$149~~$860 million average for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2016.~~2019.

As a result, the combined growth of average FHLB term advances and total average deposits resulted in total average overnight borrowed funds decreasing between years by $12.5 million, or 81.1%. Overall, the 2020 first quarter average of FHLB borrowed funds was $58.2 million, which represents a decrease of ~~$59.2 million increased by $8.0~~$4.2 million, or ~~15.7% from the prior year quarter.~~

…~~PROVISION~~..PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES…..The Company recorded a ~~$200,000~~$175,000 provision expense for loan losses in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2020 as compared to a ~~$300,000~~$400,000 provision recovery in the first quarter of 2019, which represents a net unfavorable shift of $575,000. The 2020 provision expense reflects the loan growth experienced since last year along with management’s decision to strengthen certain qualitative factors within our allowance of loan losses calculation due to the economic uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. While future losses are possible due to the COVID-19 pandemic, losses were not incurred as of March 31, 2020 which is why the provision for the period isn’t higher. The Company’s asset quality continues to remain strong as evidenced by low levels of loan losses in the third quarter of 2016. The provision recorded in the third quarter of 2017 supported commercial loan growth, a higher level of criticized loans and a lower level of net charge-offs than what was experienced during the third quarter of 2016. Althoughdelinquency, net loan charge-offs ~~were higher than~~and non-performing assets. The Company experienced net loan charge-offs of $120,000, or 0.06% of total loans, in the 2020 first quarter compared to net loan ~~loss provision for~~charge-offs of $164,000, or 0.08% of total loans, in the ~~third~~first quarter of 2017, the provision through nine months has more than doubled the level of net charge-offs experienced during this same time period. This lower level of net charge-offs in relation to the provision through nine-months as well as a reduction in classified assets and the level of total delinquency since the end of the second quarter of this year were the contributing factors for the lower provision during the third quarter of 2017. The net result was a higher loan loss allowance in 2017 compared to last year. Overall, the Company continued to maintain strong asset quality as its nonperforming2019. Non-performing assets totaled ~~$5.4~~$2.2 million, or ~~0.60%,~~only 0.26% of total loans, at September 30, 2017. Total non-performing assets did increase by $3.0 million since the end of the second quarter due primarily to the transfer of one commercial credit exposure into non-accrual status. It is believed that the Company’s loss exposure on this loan is limited because it is well secured and has a low loan to value ratio.March 31, 2020. In summary, the allowance for loan losses provided ~~194%~~416% coverage of non-performing ~~loans,~~assets, and ~~1.15%~~was 1.06% of total loans, at ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2020, compared to ~~620%~~397% coverage of non-performing ~~loans,~~assets, and ~~1.12%~~1.05% of total loans, at December 31, ~~2016.~~

~~…NON-INTEREST INCOME…~~ Non-interest income for the third quarter of 2017 totaled $3.6 million and decreased $32,000, or 0.9%, from the third quarter 2016 performance. Factors contributing to this lower level of non-interest income for the quarter included:

a $118,000 increase in other income was primarily due to revenue from our financial services business unit increasing by $87,000 as wealth management continues to be an important strategic focus of the Company;2019.

a $63,000 decrease in mortgage related fees was due to a reduced level of residential mortgage refinancing activity which caused a corresponding $43,000 reduction in revenue from residential mortgage loan sales into the secondary market;

~~a $26,000 decrease in bank owned life insurance income; and~~

~~a $24,000 decrease in services charges on deposit accounts was due to a reduced level of overdraft fee income;~~

…~~NON-INTEREST EXPENSE…~~ Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2017 totaled $10.1 million and decreased by $242,000, or 2.3%, from the prior year’s third quarter. Factors contributing to the lower non-interest expense in the quarter included:

a $117,000 or 8.8% decrease in professional fees and a $110,000 decrease in other expense as both of these expense categories were higher in 2016 due to costs associated with the resolution of a trust operations trading error;

a $104,000, or 1.8%, increase in salaries and employee benefits due to higher health care costs and additional investment in personnel talent, particularly within our wealth management subsidiary. These higher costs more than offset a decrease in pension expense; and

~~a combined $98,000 decrease in equipment & occupancy expenses was due to the Company’s ongoing profitability improvement initiatives.~~

This represents a significant improvement of $3.1 million from the nine-month period of 2016 where net income available to common shareholders totaled $1,145,000, or $0.06 per diluted common share. The improved earnings in the first nine months of 2017 resulted from a favorable combination of total revenue growth, a reduction in non-interest expense and a controlled loan loss provision. The balance sheet is well positioned for higher interest rates as demonstrated in the form of increased net interest income in the first nine months of 2017. Additionally, the Company benefitted from several profitability improvement initiatives.

The Company’s net interest income for the first nine months of 2017 increased by $1.0 million, or 3.9%, when compared to the first nine months of 2016. The Company’s net interest margin was 3.27% for the first nine months of 2017 representing an improvement of four basis points from the first nine months of 2016. The 2017 increase in net interest income is a result of a higher level of total earning assets and a favorable balance sheet positioning which has contributed to the improved net interest margin performance. The Company continues to grow earning assets while also limiting increases in its cost of funds through disciplined deposit pricing. Specifically, the earning asset growth occurred in, both, the total investment securities and the total loan portfolios. Total loans averaged $894 million which is $6.4 million, or 0.7%, higher than the 2016 nine month average. Investment securities have averaged $172 million for the nine-month time period which is $26.8 million, or 18.5%, higher than the nine month 2016 average. The growth in the investment securities portfolio is the result of management electing to diversify the mix of the investment securities portfolio through purchases of high quality corporate and taxable municipal securities. This revised strategy for securities purchases was facilitated by the increase in national interest rates that resulted in improved opportunities to purchase additional securities and grow the portfolio. As a result, interest on investments increased in the first nine months of 2017 from the same time period in 2016 by $846,000 or 28.7%. The growth in total loans reflects the successful results of the Company’s business development efforts, with an emphasis on generating all types of commercial business loans particularly through its loan production offices. Loan interest income increased by $853,000, or 3.0%, in the first nine months of 2017 when compared to last year. The higher loan interest income results from new loans originating at higher yields due to the higher interest rates and also reflects the upward repricing of certain loans tied to LIBOR or the prime rate as both of these indices have moved up with the Federal Reserve’s decision to increase the target federal funds interest rate by 25 basis points in December of 2016, March of 2017, and again in June of

~~2017. The Company has also benefitted from a higher level of income from loan charges. Overall, total interest income increased by $1.7 million, or 5.4%, in the first nine months of 2017.~~

Total interest expense increased by $692,000, or 12.1%, in the first nine months of 2017 when compared to 2016, due to higher levels of both deposit and borrowing interest expense. The Company experienced growth in deposits which we believe reflects the loyalty of our core deposit base that provides a strong foundation upon which this growth builds. Specifically, total deposits averaged $977 million for the first nine months of 2017 which is $29.9 million, or 3.2%, higher than the $947 million average for the first nine months of 2016. Deposit interest expense through nine months in 2017 increased by $583,000, or 14.7%, due to the higher balance of deposits along with certain indexed money market accounts repricing upward after the Federal Reserve interest rate increases. As a result of the solid deposit growth, the Company’s loan to deposit ratio averaged 91.5% in the first nine months of 2017 which indicates that the Company has ample room to further grow its loan portfolio. The Company experienced a $109,000 increase in the interest cost for borrowings in the first nine months of 2017 primarily due to the immediate impact that the increases in the Federal Funds Rate had on the cost of overnight borrowed funds. In the first nine months of 2017, total average FHLB borrowed funds of $61.2 million remained relatively stable, increasing slightly by $339,000, or 0.6%.

The table that follows provides an analysis of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016 setting forth (i) average assets, liabilities, and stockholders’ equity, (ii) interest income earned on interest earning assets and interest expense paid on interest bearing liabilities, (iii) average yields earned on interest earning assets and average rates paid on interest bearing liabilities, (iv) the Company’s interest rate spread (the difference between the average yield earned on interest earning assets and the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities), and (v) the Company’s net interest margin (net interest income as a percentage of average total interest earning assets). For purposes of these tables, loan balances do include non-accrual loans, and interest income on loans includes loan fees or amortization of such fees which have been deferred, as well as interest recorded on certain non-accrual loans as cash is received. Additionally, a tax rate of 34% is used to compute tax-equivalent yields.

~~…PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES…~~ The Company recorded a $750,000 provision for loan losses compared to a $3,650,000 provision for loan losses in 2016 or a decrease of $2.9 million between years. Both, the loan loss provision and net charge-offs were at more typical levels this year than the substantially higher levels that were necessary early last year to resolve a troubled loan exposure to the energy industry. The provision recorded in 2017 supported commercial loan growth, a higher level of criticized loans and more than covered the low level of net loan charge-offs incurred in the first nine months of 2017. For the nine-month timeframe, the Company experienced net loan charge-offs of $336,000, or 0.05% of total loans in 2017 compared to net loan charge-offs of $3.8 million, or 0.58%, of total loans in 2016. Overall, the Company continued to maintain strong asset quality as its nonperforming assets totaled $5.4 million, or 0.60%, of total loans, at September 30, 2017.

~~…NON-INTEREST~~..NON-INTEREST INCOME….. Non-interest income for the first ~~nine months~~quarter of ~~2017~~2020 totaled ~~$10.9~~$3.8 million and increased ~~$106,000,~~$227,000, or ~~1.0%~~6.3%, from the first ~~nine months 2016~~quarter 2019 performance. Factors contributing to this higher level of non-interest income ~~in 2017~~for the quarter included:

•

a ~~$206,000~~$175,000 increase in ~~other~~ income was primarily due to revenue increasing from our financial services business unit by $240,000 as wealth management continues to be an important strategic focus of the Company. Slightly offsetting the higher financial services business unit revenue was reduced miscellaneous income after the Company benefitted last year from funds received from our debit card vendor from a branding agreement;

~~an $89,000 increase in bank owned life insurance was due to the second quarter receipt of a death claim;~~

~~an $84,000 decrease in services charges on deposit accounts due to a reduced level of overdraft fee revenue;~~

~~a $66,000 decrease in mortgage related fees and a corresponding $35,000 decrease in revenue~~ from residential mortgage loan sales into the secondary market ~~as a result~~due to the strong level of ~~reduced~~ residential mortgage ~~refinance activity;~~loan production in the first quarter of 2020. Correspondingly there was an $82,000 increase in mortgage related fee income;

•

a ~~$62,000~~$161,000 decrease in ~~gains realized~~other income as the Company recognized a gain in 2019 on the sale of ~~investment securities~~equity shares from a previous acquisition and no such gain was recognized in 2020;

•

a $158,000 increase in wealth management fees due to management’s effective execution of managing client accounts and an improved equity market which positively impacted market values for assets under management in the first ~~nine~~two months of ~~2017 as~~ the ~~Company sold certain lower coupon mortgage backed securities~~first quarter of 2020. The late first quarter 2020 negative impact to ~~reinvest in~~ the ~~portfolio. In addition to a slightly lower volume of total securities sold in 2017, the increases to national interest rates experienced since last year unfavorably impacted the~~equity market ~~value of the existing securities portfolio and resulted in a lower level of gains recognized from security sales; and~~

~~a $58,000 increase in trust and investment advisory fees was due to a higher level of fee income that resulted~~ from the ~~effective~~COVID-19 pandemic and the pandemic’s impact on the Company’s wealth management ~~of client accounts as asset market values improved.~~fees will be more evident in this year’s second quarter financial results.

Factors contributing to the ~~lower~~higher level of non-interest expense ~~in 2017~~for the quarter included:

•

a ~~$242,000~~$403,000 increase in salaries & benefits expense due to pension expense increasing by $188,000, or 53.0% between years. This significant increase to pension expense results from the unfavorable impact that the lower interest rate environment has on the discount rates that are used to revalue the defined benefit pension obligation each year. In addition, the higher salaries & benefits expense is also due to increased health care costs, greater incentive compensation as a result of increased residential mortgage loan production, and increased salaries expense. The higher salaries expense reflects annual merit increases and the addition of several employees to address management succession planning;

•

a $94,000 decrease in other expense ~~and~~resulted from the Company recognizing a ~~corresponding $159,000 decrease~~reduction in ~~professional fees were primarily due to costs associated with~~ the resolution of a trust operations trading error in 2016. Also favorably impacting other expense during 2017 were lower costs for check card and ATM processing, software related expense, and a credit recognized to the Company’s unfunded commitment ~~reserve and reduced costs for fraud loss. Slightly offsetting these favorable items within other expense was an increase in Pennsylvania shares tax expense;~~reserve;

•

a $136,000 decrease in occupancy expenses and a $68,000 decrease in equipment costs are reflective of the Company’s ongoing efforts to become more efficient by reducing and controlling non-interest expenses. Specifically, a branch consolidation and the closure on an unprofitable loan production office were the primary reasons for these decreases;

~~TABLE OF CONTENTS~~

~~an $88,000~~$54,000 decrease in FDIC insurance expense ~~was due to a change in the calculation formula that benefitted smaller community banks; and~~

a $59,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits was due to higher health care costs and incentive compensation which more than offset a lower level of total salaries expense and reduced pension costs. There were six fewer full time equivalent employees on average during the first nine months of 2017 due to the ~~previously disclosed branch consolidation~~application of the remaining portion of the credit from the Small Bank Assessment Credit regulation; and

…..SEGMENT RESULTS.…. The community banking segment reported a net income contribution of $2,524,000 in the first quarter of 2020 which was down by $424,000 from the first quarter of 2019. The primary driver for the lower level of net income in 2020 was the Company recording an $175,000 provision expense for loan losses compared to a $400,000 provision recovery in 2019 which resulted in a net unfavorable shift of $575,000 between years. This is discussed previously in the Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses section within this document. Also, unfavorably impacting net income was total employee costs increasing and slightly higher occupancy & equipment costs. Partially offsetting these higher costs and favorably impacting net income ~~tax~~was a decrease to total deposit interest expense ~~and effective tax~~which more than offset a decrease in total loan interest income resulting in this segment’s net interest income increasing between years. The downward shift in the U.S. Treasury yield curve between years along with the Federal Reserve’s actions to decrease the fed funds rate ~~was due to~~by 150 basis points impacted the Company’s ~~increased earnings.~~

~~…SEGMENT RESULTS…~~ ~~Retail banking’s~~net interest margin performance. The lower loan interest income reflects the impact of the lower interest rate environment as new loans originated at lower yields and certain loans tied to LIBOR or the prime rate repriced downward as both of these indices have moved down. On the liability side of the balance sheet, management’s action to decrease pricing of several deposit products, given the declining interest rate environment, resulted in this segment experiencing deposit cost relief. This segment recognized a higher gain on the sale of residential mortgage loans in the secondary market and a corresponding greater level of mortgage related fee income, both of which resulted from the higher level of residential mortgage loan production. Finally, and also favorably impacting this segments level of net income was a credit recognized for the unfunded commitment reserve in the first quarter of 2020 as well as the lower FDIC insurance expense.

The wealth management segment’s net income contribution was ~~$794,000~~$487,000 in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2017 and $2.2 million for the first nine months of 2017~~2020 which was down by $63,000 and $176,000 from the net income contribution for the same 2016 periods. These decreases to both time periods reflects a higher volume of fixed rate residential mortgage loans being sold in the secondary market resulting in a lower volume held on our balance sheet. Interest expense is also higher between years due to higher deposit totals as certain indexed money market accounts repricing upward with the increases to the fed funds rate. Favorably impacting the retail segments income in both time periods was a lower level of non-interest expense due to the Company’s focus on reducing and controlling costs which resulted in lower employee and occupancy expenses due to the State College branch consolidation. Finally, FDIC insurance expense and miscellaneous expenses are also lower in 2017.

The commercial banking segment reported net income of $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2017 and $4.3 million for the first nine months of 2017 which was $60,000 and $2.4 million higher when compared to the same of 2016 results. The higher level of income for the first nine months of 2017 was due to the lower provision for loan losses. The higher loan loss provision in 2016 was necessary to resolve the troubled energy sector loan that had a significant negative impact to reported net income in 2016. Growth in commercial real estate loans over the past year also contributed to the higher level of net income for both the nine month and quarterly time periods. In addition to the growth experienced in the CRE portfolio, which contributed to the higher level of income quarter versus quarter, the commercial banking segments also benefitted from a lower level of non-interest expense due to the closure of the Harrisonburg, Virginia loan production office and additional operation efficiencies. Also, a decrease in classified assets and the level of delinquency since the second quarter of this year contributed to the lower provision expense.

~~The trust segment reported net income of $335,000 in the third quarter of 2017 and $991,000 for the first nine months of 2017 which was $140,000 higher than the 2016 quarter and $251,000~~$43,000 higher than the first ~~nine~~quarter of 2019. The increase is due to wealth management fees increasing as this segment was positively impacted by management’s effective execution of managing client accounts and increased market values for assets under management which improved in the first two months of ~~2016.

The Company did experience an increase ~~since~~in accruing loan delinquency during the ~~end of the second~~first quarter of ~~2017~~2020. The increase was primarily due to the ~~transfer~~unexpected death of ~~one CRE~~a borrower late in 2019, which was previously reported in our Form 10-K dated December 31, 2020. The estate, which is made up of significant real estate holdings and other unique assets, is currently in the process of liquidation. Therefore, this $6.3 million commercial and industrial loan association into non-accrual status which had previously been classified as delinquent. It is believed that the Company’s loss exposure on this credit is limited because it is well secured and has a low loan to value ratio. Overall, total loanexhibited delinquency ~~levels and classified assets decreased~~ during the third quarter of 2017 but remain higher than the December 31, 2016 level. The credits that caused delinquency to increase since year end 2016 do not relate to cash flow underperformance but rather appears to be related to cash flow difficulties that certain borrowers are experiencing on a broader basis. We continue to actively work with the borrowers and take the necessary steps to ensure that the cash flow generated from these properties is being appropriately applied to

Additionally, the Company’s subsidiary bank is a member of the FHLB, which provides the opportunity to obtain short- to longer-term advances based upon the Company’s investment in certain residential mortgage, commercial real estate, and commercial and industrial loans. At March 31, 2020, the Company had $364 million of overnight borrowing availability at the FHLB, $30 million of short-term borrowing availability at the Federal Reserve Bank and $35 million of unsecured federal funds lines with correspondent banks. The Company believes it has ample liquidity available to fund outstanding loan commitments if they were fully drawn upon.

Banking institutions that fail to meet the effective minimum ratios once the CCB is taken into account will be phased in over a four year period ending January 1, 2019 with minimum capital requirements becoming increasingly more strict each year of the transition. The new minimum capital requirements for each ratio, both, initially on January 1, 2015 and at the end of the transition on January 1, 2019, are as follows: A common equity tier 1 capital ratio of 4.50% initially and 7.00% at January 1, 2019; a tier 1 capital ratio of 6.00% and 8.50%; a total capital ratio of 8.00% and 10.50%; and a tier 1 leverage ratio of 5.00% and 5.00%. Under the new rules, in ordersubject to ~~avoid limitations~~constraints on capital distributions, ~~(including dividend payments~~including dividends and share repurchases, and certain discretionary ~~bonus payments to~~ executive ~~officers), a banking organization must hold a capital conservation buffer above its minimum risk-based~~compensation.

…~~INTEREST~~..INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY…..The following table presents an analysis of the sensitivity inherent in the Company’s net interest income and market value of portfolio equity. The interest rate scenarios in the table compare the Company’s base forecast, which was prepared using a flat interest rate scenario, to scenarios that reflect immediate interest rate changes of 100 and 200 basis points. Note that we suspended the 200 basis point downward rate shock since it has little value due to the absolute low level of interest rates. Each rate scenario contains unique prepayment and repricing assumptions that are applied to the Company’s existing balance sheet that was developed under the flat interest rate scenario.

Interest Rate Scenario	Variability of Net Interest Income		Change in Market Value of Portfolio Equity
200bp increase		8.7%		43.9%
100bp increase		4.8		25.0
100bp decrease		(3.0)		(29.8)

Interest Rate Scenario Variability of Net Interest Income Change in Market Value of Portfolio Equity
200bp increase 2.3 % 21.7 %
100bp increase 1.6 12.9
100bp decrease (2.0 ) (18.0 )

~~TABLE OF CONTENTS~~

The Company believes that its overall interest rate risk position is well controlled. The variability of net interest income is positive in the upward rate shocks due to the Company’s short duration investment securities portfolio, the scheduled repricing of loans tied to LIBOR or prime, and the ~~extension of a portion of~~reduction to overnight borrowed funds. Also, the Company ~~expects that it~~ will ~~not have~~continue its disciplined approach to ~~reprice~~price its core deposit accounts ~~up as quickly as interest rates rise.~~in a controlled but competitive manner. The variability of net interest income is negative in the 100 basis point downward rate scenario as the Company has more exposure to assets repricing downward to a greater extent than liabilities due to the absolute low level of interest rates with the fed funds rate currently at ~~approximately 1.25%~~a targeted range of 0% to 0.25%. The market value of portfolio equity increases in the upward rate shocks due to the improved value of the Company’s core deposit base. Negative variability of market value of portfolio equity occurs in the downward rate shock due to a reduced value for core deposits.

…~~OFF~~..OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS…..The Company incurs off-balance sheet risks in the normal course of business in order to meet the financing needs of its customers. These risks derive from commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such commitments and standby letters of credit involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The Company had various outstanding commitments to extend credit approximating ~~$169.6~~$217.5 million and standby letters of credit of ~~$10.3~~$14.1 million as of ~~September 30, 2017.~~March 31, 2020. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to these commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by their contractual amounts. The Company uses the same credit and collateral policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as for all other lending.

…~~CRITICAL~~..REGULATORY UPDATE….. A final rule adopted by the federal banking agencies in February 2019 provides banking organizations with the option to phase in, over a three-year period, the adverse day-one regulatory capital effects of the adoption of ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates” (the “CECL accounting standard”). On March 27, 2020, the federal banking agencies issued an interim final rule that gives banking organizations that implement CECL before the end of 2020 the option to delay for two years CECL’s adverse effects on regulatory capital (CECL Interim Final Rule). This is in addition to

TABLE OF CONTENTS 

the three-year transition period already in place, resulting in an optional five-year transition. The agencies noted this relief is being provided in order to allow banking organizations to better focus on lending to creditworthy households and businesses affected by recent strains on the U.S. economy caused by COVID-19. Comments on the CECL Interim Final Rule are due by May 15, 2020.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), enacted on March 27, 2020, provides banking organizations with the option to not comply with CECL until the earlier of (i) the termination date of the national emergency concerning COVID-19 declared by the President under the National Emergencies Act or (ii) December 31, 2020. The federal banking agencies issued a statement on March 31, 2020, indicating that banking organizations that elect to use the optional, temporary statutory relief will be able to elect the remaining period of regulatory capital relief provided under the CECL Interim Final Rule after the end of the statutory relief period. Alternatively, banking organizations may adopt the CECL accounting standard as planned in 2020 and use the regulatory capital relief provided under the CECL Interim Final Rule starting at the time of their adoption of CECL.

Federal, state, and local governments have adopted various statutes, rules, regulations, orders, and guidelines in order to address the COVID-19 pandemic and the adverse economic effects of this pandemic on individuals, families, businesses, and governments. Financial institutions, including the Company, are affected by many of these measures, including measures that are broadly applicable to businesses operating in the communities where the Company does business. These measures include “stay-at-home orders” that allow only essential businesses to operate. Financial services firms are generally regarded as “essential businesses” under these orders, but financial services firms, like other essential businesses, are required to operate in a manner that seeks to protect the health and safety of their customers and employees.

In addition, the federal banking agencies along with state bank regulators issued an interagency statement on March 22, 2020, addressing loan modifications that are made by financial institutions for borrowers affected by the COVID-19 crisis. The agencies stated that short-term loan modifications made on a good faith basis in response to COVID-19 for borrowers who were current prior to any relief do not need to be categorized as TDRs and that financial institutions are not expected to designate loans with deferrals granted due to COVID-19 as past due because of the deferral.

The CARES Act contains a number of provisions that affect banking organizations. The CARES Act provides funding for various programs under which the federal government will lend to, guarantee loans to, or make investments in, businesses. Banking organizations are expected to play a role in some of these programs, and when they do so, they will be subject to certain requirements. One of these programs is the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), a program administered by the Small Business Administration (the SBA) to provide loans to small businesses for payroll and other basic expenses during the COVID-19 crisis. The loans can be made by SBA-certified lenders and are 100% guaranteed by the SBA. The loans are eligible to be forgiven if certain conditions are satisfied, in which event the SBA will make payment to the lender for the forgiven amounts. The Bank has participated in the PPP as a lender.

The CARES Act also authorizes temporary changes to certain provisions applicable to banking organizations. Among other changes, the CARES Act gives financial institutions the right to elect to suspend GAAP principles and regulatory determinations for loan modifications relating to COVID-19 that would otherwise be categorized as TDRs from March 1, 2020, through the earlier of December 31, 2020, or 60 days after the COVID-19 national emergency ends. On April 7, 2020, the federal banking agencies, in consultation with state bank regulators, issued an interagency statement clarifying the interaction between (i) their earlier statement discussing whether loan modifications relating to COVID-19 need to be treated as TDRs and (ii) the CARES Act provision on this subject. In this interagency statement, the agencies also said that when exercising supervisory and enforcement responsibility with respect to consumer protection requirements, they will take into account the unique circumstances impacting borrowers and institutions resulting from the COVID-19 emergency and that they do not expect to take a consumer compliance public enforcement action against an institution, provided that the circumstances were related to this emergency and the institution made good faith efforts to support borrowers and comply with the consumer protection requirements and addressed any needed corrective action.

On September 17, 2019, the FDIC finalized a rule that introduces an optional simplified measure of capital adequacy for qualifying community banking organizations (i.e., the community bank leverage ratio (CBLR) framework), as required by the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection

TABLE OF CONTENTS 

Act. The CBLR framework is designed to reduce burden by removing the requirements for calculating and reporting risk-based capital ratios for qualifying community banking organizations that opt into the framework. In order to qualify for the CBLR framework, a community banking organization must have a tier 1 leverage ratio of greater than 9.0%, less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets, and limited amounts of off-balance-sheet exposures and trading assets and liabilities. The CARES Act reduced the minimum ratio to 8% beginning in the 2nd quarter of 2020 through December 31, 2020, increasing to 8.5% for 2021 and returning to 9% beginning January 1, 2022. A qualifying community banking organization that opts into the CBLR framework and meets all requirements under the framework will be considered to have met the well-capitalized ratio requirements under the Prompt Corrective Action regulations and will not be required to report or calculate risk-based capital. The CBLR framework will be available for banks to use in their March 31, 2020, Call Report. The CARES Act provides that if a qualifying community bank falls below the CBLR, it “shall have a reasonable grace period to satisfy” the CBLR. This provision terminates on the earlier of December 31, 2020 or the date the President declares that the coronavirus emergency is terminated. The Company will not opt into the CBLR framework for the Bank.

The Federal Reserve has established several lending facilities that are intended to support the flow of credit to households, businesses, and governments. One of these facilities is the Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility (PPPLF) which was set up to allow the Federal Reserve Banks to extend credit to financial institutions that originate PPP loans, taking the loans as collateral at face value. On April 9, 2020, the federal banking agencies issued an interim final rule to allow banking organizations to neutralize the effect of PPP loans financed under the PPPLF on the leverage capital ratios of these organizations. Also, in accordance with the CARES Act, a PPP loan will be assigned a risk weight of zero percent under the federal banking agencies’ risk-based capital rules. The Federal Reserve has also announced that it will be creating main street lending facilities to purchase loan participations, under specified conditions, from banks lending to small and medium U.S. businesses. The Company may participate in some or all of them.

Additionally, on March 15, 2020, the Federal Reserve reduced the target range for the federal funds rate to 0 to 0.25% and announced that it would increase its holdings of U.S. Treasury securities and agency mortgage-backed securities and begin purchasing agency commercial mortgage-backed securities. The Federal Reserve has also encouraged depository institutions to borrow from the discount window and has lowered the primary credit rate for such borrowing by 150 basis points while extending the term of such loans up to 90 days. Reserve requirements have been reduced to zero as of March 26, 2020.

…..CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES…..The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and conform to general practices within the banking industry. Accounting and reporting policies for the pension liability, allowance for loan losses, goodwill, income taxes, and investment securities are deemed critical because they involve the use of estimates and require significant management judgments. Application of assumptions different than those used by the Company could result in material changes in the Company’s financial position or results of operation.

ACCOUNT — Pension liability
BALANCE SHEET REFERENCE — Other liabilities
INCOME STATEMENT REFERENCE — Salaries and employee benefits and Other expense
DESCRIPTION

Pension costs and liabilities are dependent on assumptions used in calculating such amounts. These assumptions include discount rates, benefits earned, interest costs, expected return on plan assets, mortality rates, and other factors. In accordance with GAAP, actual results that differ from the assumptions are accumulated and amortized over future periods and, therefore, generally affect recognized expense and the recorded obligation of future periods. While management believes that the assumptions used are appropriate, differences in actual experience or changes in assumptions may affect the Company’s pension obligations and future expense. Our pension benefits are described further in Note 18 of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

ACCOUNT — Allowance for Loan Losses
BALANCE SHEET REFERENCE — Allowance for loan losses
INCOME STATEMENT REFERENCE — Provision (credit) for loan losses
DESCRIPTION

The allowance for loan losses is calculated with the objective of maintaining reserve levels believed by management to be sufficient to absorb estimated probable credit losses. Management’s determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on periodic evaluations of the credit portfolio and other relevant factors. However, this quarterly evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates, including, among others, likelihood of customer default, loss given default, exposure at default, the amounts and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, value of collateral, estimated losses on consumer loans and residential mortgages, and general amounts for historical loss experience. This process also considers economic conditions, uncertainties in estimating losses and inherent risks in the various credit portfolios. All of these factors may be susceptible to significant change. Also, the allocation of the allowance for credit losses to specific loan pools is based on historical loss trends and management’s judgment concerning those trends.

Commercial and commercial real estate loans are the largest category of credits and the most sensitive to changes in assumptions and judgments underlying the determination of the allowance for loan ~~loss.~~losses. Approximately ~~$8.0~~$7.1 million, or 77%, of the total allowance for loan losses at ~~September 30, 2017~~March 31, 2020 has been allocated to these two loan categories. This allocation also considers other relevant factors such as actual versus estimated losses, economic trends, delinquencies, levels of non-performing and ~~TDR~~troubled debt restructured (TDR) loans, concentrations of credit, trends in loan volume, experience and depth of management, examination and audit results, effects of any changes in lending policies and trends in policy, financial information and documentation exceptions. To the extent actual outcomes differ from management estimates, additional provision for loan losses may be required that would adversely impact earnings in future periods.

ACCOUNT — Goodwill
BALANCE SHEET REFERENCE — Goodwill
INCOME STATEMENT REFERENCE — Goodwill impairment
DESCRIPTION

The Company considers our accounting policies related to goodwill to be critical because the assumptions or judgment used in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in past acquisitions are subjective and complex. As a result, changes in these assumptions or judgment could have a significant impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

The fair value of acquired assets and liabilities, including the resulting goodwill, was based either on quoted market prices or provided by other third party sources, when available. When third party information was not available, estimates were made in good faith by management primarily through the use of internal cash flow modeling techniques. The assumptions that were used in the cash flow modeling were subjective and are susceptible to significant changes. The Company routinely utilizes the services of an independent third party that is regarded within the banking industry as an expert in valuing core deposits to monitor the ongoing value and changes in the Company’s core deposit base. These core deposit valuation updates are based upon specific data provided from statistical analysis of the Company’s own deposit behavior to estimate the duration of these non-maturity deposits combined with market interest rates and other economic factors.

Goodwill arising from business combinations represents the value attributable to unidentifiable intangible elements in the business acquired. The Company’s goodwill relates to value inherent in the banking and wealth management businesses, and the value is dependent upon the Company’s ability to provide quality, cost-effective services in the face of free competition from other market participants on a regional basis. This ability relies upon continuing investments in processing systems, the development of value-added service features and the ease of use of the Company’s services. As such, goodwill value is supported ultimately by revenue that is driven by the volume of business transacted and the loyalty of the Company’s deposit and customer base over a longer time frame. The quality and value of a Company’s

assets is also an important factor to consider when performing goodwill impairment testing. A decline in earnings as a result of a lack of growth or the inability to deliver cost-effective value added services over sustained periods can lead to the impairment of goodwill.

Goodwill, which has an indefinite useful life, is tested for impairment at least annually and written down and charged to results of operations only in periods in which the recorded value is more than the estimated fair value.

ACCOUNT — Income Taxes
BALANCE SHEET REFERENCE — Net deferred tax asset
INCOME STATEMENT REFERENCE — Provision for income tax expense
DESCRIPTION

The provision for income taxes is the sum of income taxes both currently payable and deferred. The changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon the changes in differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the basis of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates that management estimates will be in effect when the differences reverse. This income tax review is completed on a quarterly basis.

~~TABLE OF CONTENTS~~

In relation to recording the provision for income taxes, management must estimate the future tax rates applicable to the reversal of tax differences, make certain assumptions regarding whether tax differences are permanent or temporary and the related timing of the expected reversal. Also, estimates are made as to whether taxable operating income in future periods will be sufficient to fully recognize any gross deferred tax assets. If recovery is not likely, we must increase our provision for taxes by recording a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets that we estimate will not ultimately be recoverable. Alternatively, we may make estimates about the potential usage of deferred tax assets that decrease our valuation allowances. As of ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2020, we believe that all of the deferred tax assets recorded on our balance sheet will ultimately be recovered and that no valuation allowances were needed.

In addition, the calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations. We recognize liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on our estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. If we ultimately determine that payment of these amounts is unnecessary, we reverse the liability and recognize a tax benefit during the period in which we determine that the liability is no longer necessary. We record an additional charge in our provision for taxes in the period in which we determine that the recorded tax liability is less than we expect the ultimate assessment to be.

ACCOUNT — Investment Securities
BALANCE SHEET REFERENCE — Investment securities
INCOME STATEMENT REFERENCE — Net realized gains (losses) on investment securities
DESCRIPTION

Available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities are reviewed quarterly for possible other-than-temporary impairment. The review includes an analysis of the facts and circumstances of each individual investment such as the severity of loss, the length of time the fair value has been below cost, the expectation for that security’s performance, the creditworthiness of the issuer and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the security to recovery. A decline in value that is considered to be other-than-temporary is recorded as a loss within non-interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. At ~~September 30, 2017,~~March 31, 2020, the unrealized losses in the available-for-sale security portfolio were comprised of securities issued by government agencies or government sponsored agencies and certain high quality corporate and taxable municipal securities. The Company believes the unrealized losses are primarily a result of increases in market yields from the time of purchase. In general, as market yields rise, the value of securities will decrease; as market yields fall, the fair value of securities will increase. Management generally views changes in fair value caused by changes in interest rates as temporary; therefore, these securities have not been classified as other-than-temporarily impaired. Management has also concluded that based on current information we expect to continue to receive scheduled interest payments as well as the entire principal balance. Furthermore, management does not intend to sell these securities and does not believe it will be required to sell these securities before they recover in value.

We strive to educate our employee base as to the meaning/importance of earnings per share as a performance measure. We will develop a value added combination for increasing revenue and controlling expenses that is rooted in developing and offering high-quality financial products and services; an existing branch network; electronic banking capabilities with 24/7 convenience; and providing truly exceptional customer service. We will explore branch consolidation opportunities and further leverage union affiliated revenue streams, prudently manage the Company’s risk profile to improve asset yields and increase profitability and continue to identify and implement technological opportunities and advancements to drive efficiency for the ~~Company to focus on growing revenues. This means loan growth, deposit growth~~holding company and fee growth. It also means close coordination between all customer service areas so that revenue producing products can be presented to existing and prospective customers to meet their banking needs. The Company’s Strategic Plan contains action plans in each of these areas particularly on increasing loans through our loan production offices. There will be a particular focus on small business commercial lending. An examination of the peer bank database provides ample proof that a well-executed community banking business model can generate a reliable and rewarding revenue stream.its affiliates.

The Company also realigned its executive leadership team by eliminating one senior position in its executive office. Finally, the Company closed its Harrisonburg, Virginia loan production office.
