FIRST KEYSTONE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 ― BASIS OF PRESENTATION, ANDSUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

AND SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Keystone Corporation (the “Corporation”) and its wholly owned subsidiary First Keystone Community Bank (the “Bank”) (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S.accounting principles generally accepted accounting principlesin the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month periodssix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2017.2022. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in First Keystone Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2021.

For comparative purposes, the September 30, 2016 balances have been reclassified to conform to the September 30, 2017 presentation. Such reclassifications had no impact on net income.

Subsequent Events

The CorporationCompany has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the consolidated balance sheet date of SeptemberJune 30, 20172022 for items that should potentially be recognized or disclosed in these consolidated financial statements. The evaluation was conducted through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued. In October 2017, the Corporation purchased a property at a cost of $2,387,000 which the Corporation has been operating as a banking branch in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania since 2007. Previous to the purchase settlement date, the property was leased and accounted for under the guidelines of a capital lease in the total assets of the Corporation.

NOTE 2 ― RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS UPDATES (“ASU”)

Recently adopted ASUs:

Except as disclosed below, thereThere were no new accounting pronouncements affecting the CorporationASUs adopted during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 that were not already adopted by the Corporation.first two quarters of 2022.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue requirements inRevenue Recognition (Topic 605). This ASU requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2016, including interim periods within the reporting period. Early application is not permitted. In August 2015, the FASB issued an update ASU 2015-14 which approved a one-year delay of the effective date of this standard. The deferral would require public entities to apply the standard for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. In March 2016, the FASB issued an update ASU 2016-08 which updates the new revenue standard by clarifying the principal versus agent implementation guidance, but does not change the core principle of the new standard. In April 2016, the FASB issued an update ASU 2016-10, that updates the standard by identifying performance obligations and licenses of intellectual property, which clarifies the guidance surrounding licensing arrangements and the identification of performance obligations. In May 2016, the FASB issued an update ASU 2016-12 which articulates narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients. In December, the FASB issued an update ASU 2016-20. The amendments affect narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASU 2014-09 including Loan Guarantee Fees, Contract Costs, Provisions for Losses on Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts, Disclosure of Remaining Performance Obligations, Disclosure of Prior Period Performance Obligations, Contract Modifications, Contract Asset vs. Receivable, Refund Liability, Advertising Costs, Fixed Odds Wagering Contracts in the Casino Industry, and Costs Capitalized for Advisors to Private Funds and Public Funds. In February 2017, the FASB issued an update ASU 2017-05 with amendments to clarify that a financial asset is within the scope of Subtopic 610.20 if it meets the definition of an in substance nonfinancial asset. The Corporation’s revenue has been more significantly weighted towards net interest income on financial assets and liabilities, which is explicitly excluded from the scope of the new standard. The Corporation is continuing to assess its revenue streams and reviewing its contracts with customers that are potentially affected by the new guidance including wealth and asset management revenue, fees on deposits, gains and losses on the sale of other real estate owned, credit and debit card interchange fees. The Corporation will adopt the requirements of the new standard on January 1, 2018, utilizing the modified retrospective transition method. Upon adoption, the Corporation will recognize the cumulative effect of adopting this ASU as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. Prior periods will not be retrospectively adjusted. The Corporation will also be subject to expanded disclosure requirements upon adoption for which the Corporation is still in the process of evaluating.

7

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01,Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10) – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The guidance addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. In particular, the guidance revises an entity’s accounting related to (1) the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and (2) the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. The guidance also amends certain disclosure requirements associated with fair value of financial instruments. For public business entities, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Entities should apply the amendments by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The adoption of this update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,Leases (Topic 842). Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: (i) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (ii) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. Public business entities should apply the amendments in ASU 2016-02 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for all public business entities upon issuance. Lessees (for capital and operating leases) and lessors (for sales-type, direct financing, and operating leases) must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The adoption of this ASU will result in an increase to the Consolidated Balance Sheets for right-of-use assets and associated lease liabilities for operating leases in which the Corporation is the lessee. The Corporation has not yet determined the impact ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Pending ASUs:

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13,Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. TheInstruments. ASU 2016-13 requires that financial assets measured at amortized cost shouldto 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 formeasurement of expected credit losses should reflect management’sis based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current estimateconditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of credit losses that are expected to occur over the remaining life of a financial asset. Thisreported amount. ASU 2016-13 is in contrast to existing guidance whereby credit losses generally are not recognized until they are incurred. For public companies, this update will be effective for fiscal yearsannual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. In November 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application will be permittedthe FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842), to delay the effective date for all entities forsmaller reporting companies to fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. While2022. It is currently unclear how the Corporationadoption of this standard will impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements, but the Company is currently evaluating the provisions of the ASU 2016-13 to determine the potential impact that the adoption of the new standard willmay have on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements, itCompany. The Company has taken steps to prepare for the implementation when it becomes effective, such asas: forming an internal committee, gathering pertinent data, consulting with outside professionals, subscribing to a new software system, and begun evaluating its current IT systems.running existing and new methodologies concurrently through the period of implementation.

In August 2016,March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)FASB issued ASU 2016-15,2022-02, Classification of Certain Cash ReceiptsFinancial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Cash Payments.Vintage DisclosuresThe amendments are intended, which eliminates the accounting guidance on troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) by creditors that have adopted the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) model and enhances disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing and restructurings by creditors made to reduce diversity in practice. The guidance clarifies the classification of various business activities as financing, operating or investing activity.borrowers experiencing financial

difficulty. The ASU contains additionalalso amends the guidance clarifying when an entity should separate cash receipts and cash payments and classify them into more than one classon “vintage disclosures” to require disclosure of cash flows (including when reasonable judgment is required to estimate and allocate cash flows) versus when an entity should classifycurrent-period gross charge-offs by year of origination. For entities that have not yet adopted ASU 2016-13, the aggregate amount into one class of cash flows on the basis of predominance. The amendments in ASU 2022-02 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years,upon adoption of ASU 2016-13. Entities may elect to apply the guidance on TDR recognition and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted.measurement by using a modified retrospective transition method, which would result in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings, or to adopt the amendments prospectively. If an entity early adoptselects to adopt the amendments in an interim period, any adjustmentsupdated guidance on TDR recognition and measurement prospectively, the guidance should be reflected asapplied to modifications occurring after the date of adoption. The amendments on TDR disclosures and vintage disclosures should be adopted prospectively. The Company plans to adopt ASU 2022-02 upon the beginningadoption of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The CorporationASU 2016-13 and is currently assessingevaluating the provisions of ASU 2022-02 and ASU 2016-13 to determine the potential impact that this guidancethe new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2017-04,Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The ASU simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, under the amendments, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value with its carrying amount. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The update also eliminated the requirements for zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. The amendments are effective for public business entities for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The adoption of this update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.statements.

In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2017-07,Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. The amendments apply to all entities that offer employees defined benefit pension plans, other postretirement benefit plans, or other types of benefits accounted for under Topic 715, Compensation — Retirement Benefits. The amendments 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 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. The amendments also allow only the service cost component to be eligible for capitalization when applicable (e.g., as a cost of internally manufactured inventory or a self-constructed asset). The ASU is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual period for which financial statements (interim or annual) have not been issued or made available for issuance. The adoption of this update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2017-08,Receivables- Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. The ASU shortens 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. The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The amendments should be applied on a modified retrospective basis, with a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Corporation is currently assessing the impact that this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTE 3 —INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The CorporationCompany classifies its investment securities as either “Held-to-Maturity” or “Available-for-Sale” at the time of purchase. Investment securitiesSecurities are accounted for on a trade date basis. Debt securities are classified as Held-to-Maturity when the CorporationCompany has the ability and positive intent to hold the securities to maturity. Investment securitiesSecurities classified as Held-to-Maturity are carried at cost adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount to maturity.

Debt securities not classified as Held-to-Maturity and equity securities are included in the Available-for-Sale category and are carried at fair value. The amount of any unrealized gain or loss, net of the effect of deferred income taxes, is reported as accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income (loss)(AOCI) in the Consolidated Balance Sheetsconsolidated balance sheets and Consolidated Statementsconsolidated statements of Changeschanges in Stockholders’ Equity.stockholders’ equity. Management’s decision to sell Available-for-Sale securities is based on changes in economic conditions, controlling the sources and applications of funds, terms, availability of and yield of alternative investments, interest rate risk and the need for liquidity.

9

Equity securities with readily determinable fair values are stated at fair value with realized and unrealized gains and losses reported in income. Equity securities without readily determinable fair values are recorded at cost less impairment, if any.

The cost of debt securities classified as Held-to-Maturity or Available-for-Sale is adjusted for amortization of premiums to the earliest call date and accretion of discounts to expected maturity. Such amortization and accretion, as well as interest and dividends, are included in interest and dividend income from investment securities. Realized gains and losses are included in net investment securities gains and losses. The cost of investment securities sold, redeemed or matured is based on the specific identification method.

The amortized cost, related estimated fair value, and unrealized gains and losses for investmentdebt securities classified as “Available-For-Sale” or “Held-to-Maturity” were as follows at SeptemberJune 30, 20172022 and December 31, 2016:2021:

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. Investment securitiesSecurities classified as Available-for-Sale or Held-to-Maturity are generally evaluated for OTTI under FASB ASC 320,Investments - Debt and Equity Securities. In determining OTTI under the FASB ASC 320 model, management considers many factors, including (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions, and (4) whether the entity has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. The assessment of whether an other-than-temporary decline exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and is based on the information available to management at a point in time.

When other-than-temporary impairmentOTTI occurs on debt securities, the amount of the other-than-temporary impairmentOTTI recognized in earnings depends on whether an entity intends to sell the security or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period credit loss. If an entity intends to sell or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period credit loss, the other-than-temporary impairmentOTTI shall be recognized in earnings equal to the entire difference between the investment’s amortized cost basis and its fair value at the balance sheet date. If an entity does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not that the entity will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period loss, the other-than-temporary impairmentOTTI shall be separated into the amount representing the credit loss and the amount related to all other factors. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairmentOTTI related to the credit loss is determined based on the present value of cash flows expected to be collected, and the realized loss is recognized as impairment charges on securities on the Consolidated Statementsconsolidated statements of Income.income. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairmentOTTI related to the other factors shall be recognized in other comprehensive (loss) income, (loss), net of applicable taxes. The previous amortized cost basis less the other-than-temporary impairmentOTTI recognized in earnings becomes the new amortized cost basis of the investment.

security.

The fair market value of the equity securities tends to fluctuate with the overall equity markets as well as the trends specific to each institution. The equity securities portfolio is reviewed in a similar manner as that of the debt securities with greater emphasis placed on the length of time the market value has been less than the carrying value and the financial sector outlook. The Corporation also reviews dividend payment activities, levels of non-performing assets and loan loss reserves. The starting point for the equity analysis is the length and severity of market value decline. The realized loss is recognized as impairment charges on securities on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), net of applicable taxes. The previous cost basis less the other-than-temporary impairment recognized in earnings becomes the new cost basis of the investment.

The CorporationCompany and its investment advisors monitor the entire portfolio monthly with particular attention given to securities in a continuous loss position of at least ten percent for over twelve months. Based on the factors described above, management did not consider any securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at SeptemberJune 30, 20172022 or December 31, 2016.2021.

Corporate debt securities consist of senior debt and subordinated debt holdings.

The fair market value of the above securities is influenced by market interest rates, prepayment speeds on mortgage securities, bid-offer spreads in the market place and credit premiums for various types of agency debt. These factors change continuously and therefore the market value of these securities may be higher or lower than the Corporation’sCompany’s carrying value at any measurement date. Management does not believe any of their 62153 debt securities with a less than one year or less unrealized loss position, or any of their 3431 debt securities with a greater than one year or greater unrealized loss position as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2022, represent an other-than-temporary impairment, as thesethe unrealized losses relate principally to changes in interest rates subsequent to the acquisition of the specific securities. The Company expects to collect all principal and interest payments defined under the original terms as all contracted payments on securities in the portfolio are current as of June 30, 2022.

NOTE 4 —LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

Loans

Net loans are stated at their outstanding recorded investment, net of deferred fees and costs, unearned income and the allowance for loan losses. Interest on loans is recognized as income over the term of each loan, generally, by the accrual method. Loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs have been deferred with the net amount amortized using the straight line method or the interest method over the contractual life of the related loans as an interest yield adjustment.

Residential mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market on an aggregate basis determined by independent pricing from appropriate federal or state agency investors. These loans are sold without recourse. Loans held for sale amounted to $1,399,000 and $100,000 at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

The loans receivable portfolio is segmented into commercial, residential and consumer loans. Commercial loans consist of the following classes: Commercial and Industrial, and Commercial Real Estate.

Commercial and Industrial Lending

The CorporationCompany originates commercial and industrial loans primarilyprincipally to businesses located in its primary market area and surrounding areas. These loans are used for various business purposes, which include short-term loans and lines of credit to finance machinery and equipment, inventory and accounts receivable. Generally, the maximum term for loans extended on machinery and equipment is based on the projected useful life of such machinery and equipment. Most business lines of credit are written on demand and are reviewed annually.

Commercial and industrial loans are generally secured with short-term assets; however, in many cases, additional collateral such as real estate is provided as additional security for the loan. Loan-to-value maximum thresholds have been established by the CorporationCompany and are specific to the type of collateral. Collateral values may be determined using invoices, inventory reports, accounts receivable aging reports, business financial statements, collateral appraisals or internal evaluations, etc. Commercial and industrial loans are typically securedsupported by personal guarantees of the borrower.

In underwriting commercial and industrial loans, an analysis is performed to evaluate the borrower'sborrower’s character and capacity to repay the loan, the adequacy of the borrower'sborrower’s capital and collateral, as well as the conditions affecting the borrower. Evaluation of the borrower'sborrower’s past, present and future cash flows is also an important aspect of the Corporation'sCompany’s analysis of the borrower’s ability to repay.

SBA Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans that have been issued by the Company as a result of the enactment of the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) in response to the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic are included in the Company’s Commercial and Industrial portfolio and are underwritten according to all terms and conditions pursuant to the PPP as administered by the SBA under the CARES Act. See the Coronavirus Pandemic Impact on the Loan Portfolio section on page 14 for more information regarding the Company’s underwriting of these loans.

Commercial and industrial loans generally present a higher level of risk than other types of loans due primarily to the effect of general economic conditions. Commercial and industrial loans are typically made on the basis of the borrower’s ability to make repayment from cash flows from the borrower’s primary business activities. As a result, the availability of funds for the repayment of commercial and industrial loans is dependent on the success of the business itself, which in turn, is likely to be dependent upon the general economic environment.

As an addition to the commercial loans receivable portfolio, the Company may purchase the guaranteed portion of loans secured by the U.S. Government. The originating bank retains the unguaranteed portion of the loan. The loans are sponsored by one of the various government agencies including the SBA, United States Department of Agriculture (“USDA”), and the Farm Service Agency (“FSA”). Government Guaranteed Loans ("GGLs") carry no credit risk due to an unconditional and irrevocable guarantee (which is supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) on all principal and the balance of interest accruing through ninety days beyond the date that demand is made to the originating bank for repurchase of the loan. As of June 30, 2022, the Company's balance of GGLs was $5,267,000, compared to $3,829,000 at December 31, 2021.

12

Commercial Real Estate Lending

The CorporationCompany engages in commercial real estate lending in its primary market area and surrounding areas. The Corporation’s commercial real estateCompany’s Commercial Real Estate portfolio is secured primarily by commercial retail space, commercial office buildings, residential housing and hotels. Generally, commercial real estate loans have terms that do not exceed twenty years, have loan-to-value ratios of up to eighty percent of the value of the collateral property, and are typically securedsupported by personal guarantees of the borrowers.

In underwriting these loans, the CorporationCompany performs a thorough analysis of the financial condition of the borrower, the borrower’s credit history, and the reliability and predictability of the cash flow generated by the property securing the loan. The value of the property is determined by either independent appraisers or internal evaluations performed by Bank officers.

Commercial real estate loans generally present a higher level of risk than residential real estate secured loans. Repayment of loans secured by commercial real estate is typically dependent upon the successful operation of the related real estate project and/or the effect of the general economic conditions on income producing properties.

14

Residential Real Estate Lending (Including Home Equity)

The Corporation’s residential real estateCompany’s Residential Real Estate portfolio is comprised of one-to-four family residential mortgage loan originations, home equity term loans and home equity lines of credit. These loans are generated by the Corporation’sCompany’s marketing efforts, its present customers, walk-in customers and referrals. These loans originate primarily within or with customers from the Corporation’sCompany’s market area.

The Corporation’sCompany’s one-to-four family residential mortgage originations are secured primarilyprincipally by properties located in its primary market area and surrounding areas. The CorporationCompany offers fixed-rate mortgage loans with terms up to a maximum of thirty years for both permanent structures and those under construction. Loans with terms of thirty years are normally held for sale and sold without recourse; most of the residential mortgages held in the Corporation’sCompany’s residential real estate portfolio have maximum terms of twenty years. Generally, the majority of the Corporation’sCompany’s residential mortgage loans originate with a loan-to-value of eighty percent or less, or those with primary mortgage insurance at ninety-fiveNaN percent or less. Home equity term loans are secured by the borrower’s primary residence and typically have a maximum loan-to-value of eighty percent and a maximum term of fifteen years. In general, home equity lines of credit are secured by the borrower’s primary residence with a maximum loan-to-value of eighty percent and a maximum term of twenty years.

In underwriting one-to-four family residential mortgage loans, the CorporationCompany evaluates the borrower’s ability to make monthly payments, the borrower’s prior loan repayment history and the value of the property securing the loan. The ability and willingness to repay is determined byassessed based upon the borrower’s employment history, current financial conditions and credit background. A majority of the properties securing residential real estate loans made by the CorporationCompany are appraised by independent appraisers. The CorporationCompany generally requires mortgage loan borrowers to obtain an attorney’s title opinion or title insurance and fire and property insurance, including flood insurance, if applicable.

Residential mortgage loans, home equity term loans and home equity lines of credit generally present a lower level of risk than consumer loans because they are secured by the borrower’s primary residence. Risk is increased when the CorporationCompany is in a subordinate position, especially to another lender, for the loan collateral.

Residential mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market on an aggregate basis determined by independent pricing from appropriate federal or state agency investors. These loans are sold without recourse. Loans held for sale amounted to $765,000 and $6,006,000 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

13

Consumer Lending

The CorporationCompany offers a variety of secured and unsecured consumer loans, including vehicle loans, stock secured loans and loans secured by financial institution deposits. These loans originate primarily within or with customers from the Company’s market area.

Consumer loan terms vary according to the type and value of collateral and creditworthiness of the borrower. In underwriting personal loans, a thorough analysis is performed regarding the borrower’s willingness and financial ability to repay the loan as agreed. The ability and willingness to repay is determined byassessed based upon the borrower’s employment history, current financial condition and credit background.

Consumer loans may entail greater credit risk than residential real estate loans, particularly in the case of personal loans which are unsecured or are secured by rapidly depreciable assets, such as automobiles or recreational equipment. In such cases, repossessed collateral for a defaulted personal loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance as a result of the greater likelihood of damage, loss or depreciation. In addition, personal loan collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability and therefore, are more likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances. Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can be recovered on such loans.

Coronavirus Pandemic Impact on the Loan Portfolio

As a result of the economic impact of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, the CARES Act was enacted in the United States on March 27, 2020. The Company is approved by the SBA to fund loans under the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program created as part of the CARES Act. The PPP loans have 1.00% interest rates, lender fees, two or five-year terms (depending on date of origination), and may qualify for forgiveness. These loans funded by the Company are subject to the terms and conditions applicable to all loans made pursuant to the PPP, as administered by the SBA under the CARES Act. The PPP calls for these loans to be fully guaranteed by the SBA. PPP loan origination fees and certain loan origination costs have been deferred with the net amount accreted using the straight line method over the contractual life of the related loans as an interest yield adjustment. If a loan is forgiven pursuant to the terms and conditions applicable to the PPP, the remaining origination fees and costs are recognized at the time of forgiveness. All PPP loans are carried in the Company’s Commercial and Industrial loan portfolio. As of June 30, 2022, the Company held 3 PPP loans in its Commercial and Industrial portfolio which carried a balance of $146,000, of which 2 loans carrying an aggregate balance of $137,000 were granted during the first round of PPP issuance and 1 loan carrying a balance of $9,000 was granted during the second round of PPP issuance. At December 31, 2021, the Company held 122 PPP loans in its Commercial and Industrial portfolio, which carried an aggregate balance of $4,894,000, of which 2 loans carrying an aggregate balance of $160,000 were granted during the first round of PPP issuance and 120 loans carrying an aggregate balance of $4,734,000 were granted during the second round of PPP issuance.

An additional provision of the CARES Act, Section 4013 provides financial institutions the option to suspend requirements to categorize certain loan modifications as troubled debt restructurings as long as specific criteria are met. To qualify, the loan modifications must be made on a good-faith basis in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, must occur between March 1, 2020 and the earlier of September 30, 2021 or the termination date of the national emergency related to the COVID-19 pandemic as declared by the President of the United States, and the loans must have been paid current (less than 30 days past due prior to any relief) as of December 31, 2019. In compliance with Section 4013 of the CARES Act, the Company granted modification requests to defer principal and/or interest payments or modify interest rates on various loans across all portfolio segments. Of the loan modifications that were granted in compliance with Section 4013 of the CARES Act, there were 0 loan modifications still actively on deferral as of June 30, 2022, compared to December 31, 2021 when there was 1 loan modification still actively on deferral carrying a balance of $9,423,000. See page 24 for additional information regarding the Section 4013 CARES Act modifications.

14

Delinquent Loans

Generally, a loan is considered to be past-due when scheduled loan payments are in arrears 10 days or more. Delinquent notices are generated automatically when a loan is 10 or 15 days past-due, depending on loan type. Collection efforts continue on past-due loans that have not been brought current, when it is believed that some chance exists for improvement in the status of the loan. Past-due loans are continually evaluated with the determination for charge-off being made when no reasonable chance remains that the status of the loan can be improved.

Commercial and Industrialindustrial and Commercial Real Estatecommercial real estate loans are charged off in whole or in part when they become sufficiently delinquent based upon the terms of the underlying loan contract and when a collateral deficiency exists. Because all or part of the contractual cash flows are not expected to be collected, the loan is considered to be impaired, and the BankCompany estimates the impairment based on its analysis of the cash flows or collateral estimated at fair value less cost to sell.

15

Should a GGL default, demand is made to the originating bank for repurchase of the loan. If the originating bank does not repurchase the loan, demand for repurchase is then made to the appropriate government agency which has provided the guarantee for the loan.

Residential Real Estatereal estate and Consumerconsumer loans are charged off when they become sufficiently delinquent based upon the terms of the underlying loan contract and when the value of the underlying collateral is not sufficient to support the loan balance and a loss is expected. At that time, the amount of estimated collateral deficiency, if any, is charged off for loans secured by collateral, and all other loans are charged off in full. Loans with collateral are chargedwritten down to the estimated fair value of the collateral less cost to sell.

LoansExisting loans in which the borrower is inhas declared bankruptcy are considered on a case by case basis andto determine whether repayment is likely to occur (eg. reaffirmation by the borrower with demonstrated repayment ability). Otherwise, loans are either charged off in full or reaffirmed bywritten down to the borrower.

estimated fair value of collateral less cost to sell.

Generally, a loan is classified as non-accrual and the accrual of interest on such a loan is discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan may currently be performing.interest. A loan may remain on accrual status if it is well secured (or supported by a strong guarantee) and in the process of collection. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, unpaid interest credited to income in the current year is reversed and unpaid interest accrued in prior years is charged against interest income. Certain non-accrual loans may continue to perform; that is, payments are still being received. Generally, the payments are applied to principal. These loans remain under constant scrutiny, and if performance continues, interest income may be recorded on a cash basis based on management's judgment as toregarding the collectability of principal.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is established through provisions for loan losses charged against income. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loan losses and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level estimated by management to be adequate to absorb potential loan losses. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is based on the Corporation’sCompany’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay (including the timing of future payments), the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates including the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans that may be susceptible to significant change.

15

The allowance consists of specific, general and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired. Select loans are not aggregated for collective impairment evaluation, as such; all loans are subject to individual impairment evaluation should the facts and circumstances pertinent to a particular loan suggest that such evaluation is necessary. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the allowance may be allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from collateral. Troubled debt restructuringsTDRs are separately identified for impairment disclosures and are measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s effectivecontractual rate at inception. If a troubled debt restructuringTDR is considered to be a collateral dependent loan, the loansloan may be reported net, at the fairnet realizable value of the collateral. For troubled debt restructuringsTDRs that subsequently default, the CorporationCompany determines the amount of reserve in accordance with the accounting policy for the allowance for loan losses.

The general component covers all other loans not identified as impaired (aside from GGLs, which do not require an allowance) and is based on historical losses and qualitative factors. The historical loss component of the allowance is determined by losses recognized by portfolio segment over a timean eight quarter lookback period that management has determined best represents the current credit cycle. Qualitative factors impacting each portfolio segment may include: delinquency trends, loan volume trends, Bank policy changes, management processes and oversight, economic trends (including change in consumer and business disposable incomes, unemployment and under-employment levels, and other conditions), concentrations by industry or product, internal and external loan review processes, collateral value and market conditions, and external factors including regulatory issues and competition.

GGLs do not require an associated allowance for loan losses due to the underlying irrevocable and unconditional guarantee, which is supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. Should a GGL default, the loan will be repurchased by the originating bank or the appropriate government agency that has provided the guarantee for the loan.

16

Although PPP loans do not require an associated allowance for loan losses due to the program’s call for a full guarantee by the SBA, the Company has calculated a qualitative allocation for the PPP loans under the general component of the allowance for the Commercial and Industrial portfolio.

The unallocated component of the allowance is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.

A reserve for unfunded lending commitments is provided for possible credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures. The reserve for unfunded lending commitments represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in its unfunded loan commitments and, if necessary, is recorded in other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.consolidated balance sheets. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20172022 and December 31, 2016,2021, the amount of the reserve for unfunded lending commitments was $145,000$117,000 and $202,000,$177,000, respectively.

The CorporationCompany is subject to periodic examination by its federal and state examiners, and may be required by such regulators to recognize additions to the allowance for loan losses based on their assessment of credit information available to them at the time of their examinations.

16

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the BankCompany will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the originalexisting loan agreement. Under current accounting standards, the allowance for loan losses related to impaired loans is based on discounted cash flows using the loan’s effectivecontractual interest rate at inception or the fairnet realizable value of the collateral for certain collateral dependent loans.

From time to time, the Bank may agree to modify/restructure the contractual terms of a borrower's loan. The restructuring of a loan is considered a “troubled debt restructuring”TDR if both the following conditions are met: (i) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, and (ii) the BankCompany has granted a concession. The most common concessions granted include one or more modifications to the terms of the debt, such as (a) a reduction in the interest rate for the remaining life of the debt, (b) an extension of the maturity date at an interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, (c) a temporary period of interest-only payments, and (d) a reduction in the contractual payment amount for either a short period or remaining term of the loan. A less common concession is the forgiveness of a portion of the principal.

The determination of whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties takes into account not only the current financial condition of the borrower, but also the potential financial condition of the borrower were a concession not granted. Similarly, the determination of whether a concession has been granted is very subjective in nature. For example, simply extending the term of a loan at its original interest rate or even at a higher interest rate could be interpreted as a concession unless the borrower could readily obtain similar credit terms from a different lender.

Loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring are considered impaired and may or may not be placed on non-accrual status until the BankCompany determines the future collection of principal and interest is reasonably assured, which generally requires that the borrower demonstrates a period of performance according to the restructured terms of six months.

Any loan modifications made in response to the COVID-19 pandemic are not considered TDRs as long as the criteria set forth in Section 4013 of the CARES Act are met. See page 24 for further discussion of the Section 4013 CARES Act modifications.

The BankCompany utilizes a risk grading matrix as a tool for managing credit risk in the loan portfolio and assigns an asset quality rating (risk grade) to all Commercial and Industrial, Commercial Real Estate, Residential Real Estate and Consumer borrowings. An asset quality rating is assigned using the guidance provided in the Bank’sCompany’s loan policy. Primary responsibility for assigning the asset quality rating rests with the lender.credit department. The asset quality rating is validated periodically by both an internal and external loan review process.

The commercial loan grading system focuses on a borrower’s financial strength and performance, experience and depth of management, primary and secondary sources of repayment, the nature of the business and the outlook for the particular industry. Primary emphasis is placed on financial condition and trends. The grade also reflects current economic and industry conditions; as well as other variables such as liquidity, cash flow, revenue/earnings trends, management strengths or weaknesses, quality of financial information, and credit history.

The loan grading system for Residential Real Estate and Consumer loans focuses on the borrower’s credit score and credit history, debt-to-income ratio and income sources, collateral position and loan-to-value ratio, as well as other variables such as current economic conditions, and individual strengths and weaknesses.

17

ratio.

Risk grade characteristics are as follows:

Risk Grade 1 – MINIMAL RISK through Risk Grade 6 – MANAGEMENT ATTENTION (Pass Grade Categories)

Risk is evaluated via examination of several attributes including but not limited to financial trends, strengths and weaknesses, likelihood of repayment when considering both cash flow and collateral, sources of repayment, leverage position, management expertise, and repayment history.

17

At the low-risk end of the rating scale, a risk grade of 1 – Minimal Risk is the grade reserved for loans with exceptional credit fundamentals and virtually no risk of default or loss. Loan grades then progress through escalating ratings of 2 through 6 based upon risk. Risk Grade 2 – Modest Risk are loans with sufficient cash flows; Risk Grade 3 – Average Risk are loans with key balance sheet ratios slightly above the borrower’s peers; Risk Grade 4 – Acceptable Risk are loans with key balance sheet ratios usually near the borrower’s peers, but one or more ratios may be higher; and Risk Grade 5 – Marginally Acceptable are loans with strained cash flow, increasing leverage and/or weakening markets. Risk Grade 6 – Management Attention are loans with weaknesses resulting from declining performance trends and the borrower’s cash flows may be temporarily strained. Loans in this category are performing according to terms, but present some type of potential concern.

Risk Grade 7 − SPECIAL MENTION (Non-Pass Category)

Generally, these loans or assets are currently protected, but are “potentially weak.” They constitute an undue and unwarranted credit risk but not to the point of justifying a classification of substandard.

Assets in this category are currently protectedadequately collateralized but have potential weakness which may, if not checked or corrected, weaken the asset or inadequately protect the Bank’sCompany’s credit position at some future date. The loans may constitute increased credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a classification of substandard. No loss of principal or interest is envisioned; however, they constitute an undue creditenvisioned, but risk that may be minor but is unwarranted in light of the circumstances surrounding a specific asset. Risk is increasing beyond that at which the loan originally would have been granted. Historically, cash flows are inconsistent; financial trends show some deterioration. Liquidity and leverage are above industry averages. Financial information could be incomplete or inadequate. A Special Mention asset has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention.

Risk Grade 8 − SUBSTANDARD (Non-Pass Category)

Generally, these assets are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have “well-defined” weaknesses that jeopardize the full liquidation of the debt.

These loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the BankCompany will sustain some loss if the aggregate amount of substandard assets is not fully covered by the liquidation of the collateral used as security. Substandard loans have a high probability of payment default and require more intensive supervision by BankCompany management.

Risk Grade 9 − DOUBTFUL (Non-Pass Category)

Generally, loans graded doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in a substandard loan with the added factor that the weaknesses are pronounced to a point whereby the basis of current information, conditions, and values, collection or liquidation in full is deemed to be highly improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific pending factors that may work to strengthen the asset, its classification is deferred until, for example, a proposed merger, acquisition, liquidation procedure, capital injection, perfection of liens on additional collateral and/or refinancing plan is completed. Loans are graded doubtful if they contain weaknesses so serious that collection or liquidation in full is questionable.

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase (“Repurchase Agreements”)

The CorporationCompany enters into agreements under which it sells securities subject to an obligation to repurchase the same or similar securities. Under these arrangements, the CorporationCompany may transfer legal control over the assets but still retain effective control through an agreement that both entitles and obligates the CorporationCompany to repurchase the assets.

As a result, these repurchase agreements are accounted for as collateralized financing agreements (i.e., secured borrowings) and not as a sale and subsequent repurchase of securities. The obligation to repurchase the securities is reflected as a liability on the Corporation’s Consolidated Balance Sheets,Company’s consolidated balance sheets, while the securities underlying the repurchase agreements remain in the respective investment securities asset accounts. In other words, there is not offsetting or netting of the investment securities assets with the repurchase agreement liabilities. In addition, as the CorporationCompany does not enter into reverse repurchase agreements, there is no such offsetting to be done with the repurchase agreements.

The right of setoff for a repurchase agreement resembles a secured borrowing, whereby the collateral would be used to settle the fair value of the repurchase agreement should the CorporationCompany be in default (e.g., fails to make an interest payment to the counterparty). The collateral is held by a correspondent bank in the counterparty’s custodial account. The counterparty has the right to sell or repledge the investment securities.

Long-Term Borrowings

and Letters of Credit

Long-term borrowings are comprised of advances from the FHLB.

Irrevocable standby letters of credit may be issued to a customer/beneficiary by the FHLB on the Company’s behalf in order to secure public/municipal unit deposits, provide credit enhancement to certain transaction types, or to support payment obligations to third parties. These irrevocable standby letters of credit are supported by an irrevocable and a capital lease assumedindependent guarantee by the FHLB for the Company’s pledging obligation to secure public/municipal unit deposits which eliminates the need for the Company to pledge collateral in the amount necessary to secure these funds. The Company began utilizing this service offered by the FHLB during the second quarter of 2021. There were 0 irrevocable standby letters of credit which could be drawn on through FHLB’s close of business on June 30, 2022. Any irrevocable standby letters of credit are issued as a result of the acquisition of Pocono Community Bank. necessary in an amount appropriate to secure specific public/municipal unit deposits.

NOTE 7 — SUBORDINATED DEBT

On December 10, 2020, the Corporation issued $25,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Subordinated Notes due 2030 (the “2020 Notes”) to accredited investors. The 2020 Notes are intended to be treated as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes. The Company utilized the net proceeds it received from the sale of the 2020 Notes to support organic growth and for general corporate purposes.

The 2020 Notes bear a fixed interest rate of 4.375% per year for the first five years and then float based on a benchmark rate (as defined). Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 30 and December 31 of each year, which began on June 30, 2021, for the first five years after issuance and will be payable quarterly in arrears thereafter on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31. The 2020 Notes will mature on December 31, 2030 and are redeemable in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, at any time on or after December 31, 2025 and prior to December 31, 2030. Additionally, if all or any portion of the 2020 Notes cease to be deemed Tier 2 capital, the Corporation may redeem, in whole and not in part, at any time upon giving not less than ten days’ notice, an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the principal amount outstanding plus accrued but unpaid interest to but excluding the date fixed for redemption.

Holders of the 2020 Notes may not accelerate the maturity of the 2020 Notes, except upon the bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, receivership or similar law of the Corporation or the Bank.

NOTE 68 —COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the normal course of business, there are various pending legal actions and proceedings that are not reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Management does not believe the outcome of these actions and proceedings will have a material effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Corporation.Company.

The Bank currently leases 4 branch banking facilities and 1 parcel of land under operating leases. At June 30, 2022, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were recorded related to these operating leases totaling $1,013,000 and $1,495,000, respectively. At December 31, 2021, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities stood at $1,025,000 and $1,499,000, respectively. Further options to extend or terminate the lease are not applicable for any of the 5 leases. No significant assumptions or judgements were made in determining whether a contract contained a lease or in the consideration of lease versus non-lease components. None of the leases contained an implicit rate; therefore, our incremental borrowing rate was used for each of the leases.

NOTE 7

The Bank recognized total operating lease costs for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 of $90,000 and $89,000, respectively. Operating lease costs are included in occupancy, net in the accompanying statements of income. Cash payments totaled $83,000 and $77,000, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

The Bank currently has 1 finance lease for equipment. At June 30, 2022, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were recorded related to the finance lease totaling $34,000 and $11,000, respectively. At December 31, 2021, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities stood at $34,000 and $16,000, respectively. Amounts recognized as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to finance leases are included in premises and equipment, net and other liabilities, respectively, in the accompanying balance sheet. Further options to extend or terminate the lease are not applicable for the lease. No significant assumptions or judgements were made in determining whether a contract contained a lease or in the consideration of lease versus non-lease components. The lease did not contain an implicit rate; therefore, our incremental borrowing rate was used.

Total finance lease costs that were recognized by the Bank for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were immaterial. Cash payments totaled $5,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

NOTE 9 — FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

Financial Instruments with Off BalanceOff-Balance Sheet Risk

The CorporationCompany is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.consolidated balance sheets. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the CorporationCompany has in particular classes of financial instruments. The CorporationCompany does not engage in trading activities with respect to any of its financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk.

27

The Corporation’sCompany’s exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments.

The CorporationCompany uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

The CorporationCompany may require collateral or other security to support financial instruments with off-balance sheet credit risk.

The contract or notional amounts at SeptemberJune 30, 20172022 and December 31, 2016,2021 were as follows:

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses that may require payment of a fee. Since some of the commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The CorporationCompany evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the CorporationCompany upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, owner-occupied income-producing commercial properties, and residential real estate.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the CorporationCompany to guarantee payment to a third party when a customer either fails to repay an obligation or fails to perform some non-financial obligation. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The CorporationCompany may hold collateral (similar to the items held as collateral for commitments to extend credit) to support standby letters of credit for which collateral is deemed necessary.

Financial Instruments with Concentrations of Credit Risk

The CorporationCompany originates primarily commercial and residential real estate loans to customers in northeastern Pennsylvania. The ability of the majority of the Corporation’sCompany’s customers to honor their contractual loan obligations is dependent on the economy and real estate market in this area. At SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2022, the CorporationCompany had $443,307,000$716,879,000 in loans secured by real estate, which represented 81.7%89.1% of total loans. The real estate loan portfolio is largely secured by lessors of residential buildings and dwellings, lessors of non-residential buildings, and lessors of hotels/motels. As of September

31

June 30, 20172022 and December 31, 2016,2021, management is of the opinion that there were no concentrations exceeding 10% of total loans with regard to loans to borrowers who were engaged in similar activities that were similarly impacted by economic or other conditions.

As all financial instruments are subject to some level of credit risk, the CorporationCompany requires collateral and/or guarantees for all loans. Collateral may include, but is not limited to property, plant, and equipment, commercial and/or residential real estate property, land, and pledge of securities. In the event of a borrower’s default, the collateral supporting the loan may be seized in order to recoup losses associated with the loan. The CorporationCompany also establishes an allowance for loan losses that constitutes the amount available to absorb losses within the loan portfolio that may exist due to deficiencies in collateral values.

NOTE 810 —FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value measurement and disclosure guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell the asset or transfer the liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. This guidance provides additional information on determining when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability has significantly decreased. The guidance also includes information on identifying circumstances when a transaction may not be considered orderly.

28

Fair value measurement and disclosure guidance provides a list of factors that a reporting entity should evaluate to determine whether there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in relation to normal market activity for the asset or liability. When the reporting entity concludes there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, further analysis of the information from that market is needed and significant adjustments to the related prices may be necessary to estimate fair value in accordance with the fair value measurement and disclosure guidance.

This guidance clarifies that when there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, some transactions may not be orderly. In those situations, the entity must evaluate the weight of the evidence to determine whether the transaction is orderly. The guidance provides a list of circumstances that may indicate that a transaction is not orderly. A transaction price that is not associated with an orderly transaction is given little, if any, weight when estimating fair value.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the reporting entity’s own belief about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based upon the best information available in the circumstances.available. Fair value measurement and disclosure guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 Inputs:     Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2 Inputs:     Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability;

Level 3 Inputs:     Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth as follows.

The estimated fair values of equity securities and US Treasury debt securities classified as Level 1 are derived from quoted market prices in active markets; these assetsthe equity securities consist mainly of stocks held in other banks. The estimated fair values of all debt securities classified as Level 2 are obtained from nationally-recognized third-party pricing agencies. The estimated fair values are derived primarily from cash flow models, which include assumptions for interest rates, credit losses, and prepayment speeds. The significant inputs utilized in the cash flow models are based on market data obtained from sources independent of the CorporationCompany (observable inputs), and are therefore classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The CorporationCompany does not have any Level 3 inputs for investments.securities. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during 20172022 or 2016.2021.

For impaired loans less than $250,000 upon classification and annually at year end, the BankCompany completes a Certificate of Inspection, which includes an onsite inspection, and considers value indicators such as insured values, tax assessed values, recent sales comparisons and a review of the previous evaluations. Theseevaluations.These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level that is significant to the fair value measurements. The fair value consists of the impaired loan balances less the valuation allowance and/or charge-offs. There were no0 transfers between valuation levels in 20172022 and 2016.

NOTE 11 — REVENUE RECOGNITION

In accordance with ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers – Topic 606, and all subsequent ASUs that modified ASC 606, the main types of revenue contracts included in non-interest income within the consolidated statements of income are as follows:

Deposits related fees and service charges

Service charges and fees on deposits, which are included as liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, consist of fees related to monthly fees for various retail and business checking accounts, automated teller machine (“ATM”) fees (charged for withdrawals by our deposit customers from other bank ATMs) and insufficient funds fees (“NSF”) (which are charged when customers overdraw their accounts beyond available funds). All deposit liabilities are considered to have one-day terms and therefore related fees are recognized in income at the time when the services are provided to the customers. The following information should not be interpretedCompany elected to adopt practical expedient related to incremental costs of obtaining deposit contracts. As such, any costs associated with acquiring the deposits, except for time deposits with maturities in excess of one year, are recognized as an estimateexpense within non-interest expense in the consolidated statements of income when incurred as the amortization period of the deposit liabilities that otherwise would have been recognized is one year or less.

Wealth/Asset/Trust Management Fees

Wealth management services are delivered to individuals, corporations and retirement funds located primarily within our geographic markets. The Trust Department of the Company conducts the wealth management operations, which provides a broad range of personal and corporate fiduciary services, including the administration of estates.

Assets held in a fiduciary capacity by the Trust Department are not assets of the Company and, therefore, are not included in our consolidated financial statements. Wealth management fees, which are contractually agreed with each customer, are earned each month and recognized on a cash basis based on average fair value of the trust assets under management. The services provided under such a contract are considered a single performance obligation under ASC 606 because they embody a series of distinct goods or services that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Wealth management fees charged by the Trust Department follow a tiered structure

36

based on the type and size of the assets under management. Wealth management fees are included within non-interest income in the consolidated statements of income. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of trust assets under management was $111,330,000 and $108,339,000, respectively. The costs of acquiring asset management customers are incremental and recognized within non-interest expense in the entire Corporation since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portionconsolidated statements of the Corporation’s assetsincome.

Interchange Fees and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Corporation’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of the Corporation’s financial instruments at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016:Surcharges

32

Cash and Due From Banks, Interest-Bearing Deposits in Other Banks, Time Deposits with Other Banks, Restricted Investment in Bank Stocks, Accrued Interest Receivable and Accrued Interest Payable

The fair valuesInterchange fees are equalrelated to the current carrying values.

Investment Securities

The fair valuesacceptance and settlement of investment securities are determined by obtaining quoted market prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1) or matrix pricing (Level 2), which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industrydebit card transactions, both point-of-sale and ATM, to value debt securities without relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices.

Loans

Fair values are estimated for categories of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as Commercialcover operating costs and Industrial, Commercial and Residential Real Estate mortgages and Consumer. For estimation purposes, each loan category is further segmented into fixed and adjustable rate interest terms.

The fair value of each category of performing loans is calculated by discounting future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.

Fair value for impaired loans is based on management’s estimate of future cash flows discounted using a rate commensurate with the riskrisks associated with the estimated future cash flows or basedapproval and settlement of the transactions. Interchange fees vary by type of transaction and each merchant sector. Net income recognized from interchange fees is included in non-interest income on the valueconsolidated statements of income. A surcharge is assessed for use of the collateral if repayment is expected solely from collateral. The assumptions usedCompany’s ATMs by managementnon-customers. All interchange fees and surcharges are judgmentally determined using information regarding each specific borrower.

Mortgage Servicing Rights

Servicing rights are carried at cost. The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Deposits

The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, suchrecognized as demand deposits, savings accounts and money market accounts, is equalreceived on a daily basis for the prior business day’s transactions. All expenses related to the amount payablesettlement of debit card transactions (both point-of-sale and ATM) are recognized on demand at September 30, 2017a monthly basis and December 31, 2016.

Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on similar term borrowings, to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

Short-Term and Long-Term Borrowings

The fair values of short-term borrowings are equal to the current carrying values, and long-term borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses basedincluded in non-interest expense on the Corporation’s incremental borrowing rate for similar instruments.consolidated statements of income.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments

The fair values for the Corporation’s off-balance sheet financial instruments (lending commitments and letters of credit) are based on fees currently charged in the market to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing.

NOTE 912 —EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Corporation.

NOTE 13 — GOODWILL

Goodwill resulted from the acquisition of the Pocono Community Bank in November 2007 and of certain fixed and operating assets acquired and deposit liabilities assumed of the branch of another financial institution in Danville, Pennsylvania, in January 2004. Such goodwill represents the excess cost of the acquired assets relative to the assets’ fairvalue at the dates of acquisition. In accordance with current accounting standards, goodwill is not amortized. Goodwill totaled $19,133,000 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Impairment testing is performed on an annual basis, using either a qualitative or quantitative approach. The assumptions used in the impairment test of goodwill are susceptible to change based on changes in economic conditions and other factors, including our stock price. Any change in the assumptions utilized to determine the carrying value of goodwill could adversely affect our results of operations.

37

Goodwill was evaluated for impairment at December 31, 2021, and it was determined that goodwill was not impaired. Management evaluated the need for an interim goodwill impairment analysis and determined that there were no triggering events or negative factors affecting goodwill since the previous test that would indicate goodwill was impaired as of June 30, 2022.

Thecarried a balance of $1,000,000 at December 31, 2021. Four loans to the owners/operators of an indoor family entertainment complex that carried an aggregate balance of $753,000 at December 31, 2021 were also upgraded from Special MentionSubstandard to pass-grade status during the second quarter of 2017 due to the borrower’s improved financial performance and debt service capacity. Five of the upgraded loans totaling $465,000 are to a contractor specializing in concrete projects. The loans were upgraded from Special Mention to pass-grade status during the threesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017 due to improved financial performance as reflected by increased sales and improved cash flow and debt service capacity. The four downgraded loans are to a plastic processing company focused on non-post-consumer recycling. The loans were downgraded to Substandard and moved to non-accrual status during the first quarter of 2017 due to a downturn in revenues resulting from lower commodity prices for new plastic produced from petroleum and natural gas liquids.

2022.

The $3,072,000 decrease in the Commercial Real Estate non-pass grade portfolio was the result of several fluctuations including large upgrades to pass-grade status and significant payments, pay-downs, and pay-offs net against loans transferred to (or originated at) non-pass grade status and the repurchase of a portion of a non-pass grade participation loan, combined with other normal activity in the Commercial Real Estate non-pass grade portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. A repurchase of one participant’s portion of a non-pass grade participation loan to a student housing holding company was completed during the three months ended September 30, 2017; the repurchased portion totaled $1,350,000. One loan in the amount of $1,086,000 to the owner of a golf course and related facilities was upgraded from Special Mention to pass-grade status during the second quarter of 2017, and one loan in the amount of $536,000 to a contractor specializing in concrete projects was upgraded from Special Mention to pass-grade status during the three months ended September 30, 2017. Payments and principal pay-downs totaling $330,000 were made on a purchased participation loan to the owner of a recreation facility during the nine month period ended September 30, 2017. Two loans totaling $654,000 to a plastic processing company focused on non-post-consumer recycling were downgraded to Substandard and moved to non-accrual status during the first quarter of 2017 due to a downturn in revenues resulting from lower commodity prices for new plastic produced from petroleum and natural gas liquids.

Activity associated with four loans to the developer of a residential sub-division resulted in a net decrease of $2,568,000 in the Commercial Real Estate non-pass grade portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Two loans totaling $2,220,000 were paid off and a $500,000 pay-down was made on one of the guarantor’s existing loans during the first quarter of 2017. A loan with an outstanding recorded investment of $152,000 at September 30, 2017 was originated at substandard status during the second quarter of 2017 to allow for the construction of an additional single family spec home in light of a perceived increase in interest on the part of prospective purchasers and to support sales momentum and provide available inventory of homes for sale in the aftermath of the successful sale of an existing spec home. The Bank granted the loan based on the borrower’s excellent loan payment history with the Bank and taking into account the existence of other viable sources of repayment, but inadequate debt service capability based on historical income led to the loan’s substandard risk rating.

The CorporationCompany continues to internally underwrite each of its loans to comply with prescribed policies and approval levels established by its Board of Directors.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses constitutes the amount available to absorb losses within the loan portfolio. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2022, the allowance for loan losses was $7,448,000$9,160,000 as compared to $7,357,000$8,680,000 as of December 31, 2016.2021. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expenses. Loans are charged against the allowance for possible loan losses when management believes that the collectability of the principal is unlikely. The risk characteristics of the loan portfolio are managed through various control processes, including credit evaluations of individual borrowers, periodic reviews, and diversification by industry. Risk is further mitigated through the application of lending procedures such as the holding of adequate collateral and the establishment of contractual guarantees.

Management performs a quarterly analysis to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The methodology in determining adequacy incorporates specific and general allocations together with a risk/loss analysis on various segments of the portfolio according to an internal loan review process. This assessment results in an allocated allowance. Management maintains its loan review and loan classification standards consistent with those of its regulatory supervisory authority.

41

Management considers, based upon its methodology, that the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover foreseeable future losses. However, there can be no assurance that the allowance for loan losses will be adequate to cover significant losses, if any, that might be incurred in the future. On a quarterly basis, management evaluates the qualitative factors utilized in the calculation of the Company’s allowance for loan losses and various adjustments are made to these factors as deemed necessary at the time of evaluation. The uncertain economic climate has played a large role in the qualitative factor adjustments that have been implemented throughout 2021 and the first half of 2022. Qualitative factors remained unchanged during the first quarter of 2021, as the economy and unemployment levels showed marked improvement over the prior quarter. During the second quarter of 2021, the qualitative factors related to the local/regional economy were decreased by one basis point across all loan segments, as the economy and job growth in the Company’s market areas demonstrated marked improvement over the prior quarter, and the qualitative factor related to collateral values was increased by one basis point for both the Commercial Real Estate and Residential Real Estate portfolio segments due to an artificial increase in market values in the real estate sector as individuals’ willingness to pay above-average market prices has sparked uncertainty surrounding collateral values in the real estate market.

45

Qualitative factors remained unchanged during the third quarter of 2021. During the fourth quarter of 2021, the qualitative factors related to external factors/conditions were increased by one basis point across all loan segments due increased inflation rates, as well as elevated unemployment levels (although improved from 2020 and early 2021) and the uncertainty of how broad the changes implemented by the Federal Reserve would be. The qualitative factors related to collateral values were also increased by one basis point across all loan segments during the fourth quarter of 2021, as collateral values continued to artificially increase as individuals were willing to pay above-average market prices in all sectors. During the first quarter of 2022, the qualitative factors related to the local/regional economy were increased by one basis point across all loan segments due to ongoing economic uncertainty resulting from supply chain disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, conflicts in foreign countries causing inflationary pressures due to reductions/disruptions in the production of the commodities controlled by these countries, increased interest rates, and the overall inflation rate continuing to rise. During the second quarter of 2022, the qualitative factors remained unchanged. Modifications granted in compliance with Section 4013 of the CARES Act were highest in the Commercial Real Estate portfolio segment, the long-term effects of which are still very unclear, as there is still economic uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic, especially in relation to this segment of the Company’s loan portfolio. See Allowance for Loan Losses on page 15 for further discussion.

It is the policy of management and the Corporation’sCompany’s Board of Directors to make a provision for both identified and unidentified losses inherent in its loan portfolio. A provision for loan losses is charged to operations based upon an evaluation of the potential losses in the loan portfolio. This evaluation takes into account such factors as portfolio concentrations, delinquency trends, trends of non-accrual and classified loans, economic conditions, and other relevant factors.

The loan review process, which is conducted quarterly, is an integral part of the Bank’s evaluation of the loan portfolio. A detailed quarterly analysis to determine the adequacy of the Corporation’sCompany’s allowance for loan losses is reviewed by the Board of Directors.

With the Bank’s manageable level of net charge-offs and recoveries along with the additions to the reserve from the provision out of operations, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of average loans amounted to 1.41%1.177% and 1.120% at SeptemberJune 30, 20172022 and 1.35% at September 30, 2016.

NON-PERFORMING ASSETS

The table on page 4550 details the Corporation’sCompany’s non-performing assets and impaired loans as of the dates indicated. Generally, a loan is classified as non-accrual and the accrual of interest on such a loan is discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan currently is performing.interest. A loan may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, unpaid interest credited to income in the current year is reversed and unpaid interest accrued in prior years is charged against current period income. A modification of a loan constitutes a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”)TDR when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the modification constitutes a concession that the CorporationCompany would not otherwise consider. Modifications to loans classified as TDRs generally include reductions in contractual interest rates, principal deferments and extensions of maturity dates at a stated interest rate lower than the current market for a new loan with similar risk characteristics. While unusual, there may be instances of loan principal forgiveness. Any loan modifications made in response to the COVID-19 pandemic

Potential problem loans are defined as performingPerforming substandard loans which are not deemed to be impaired. These loansimpaired have characteristics that cause management to have doubts regarding the ability of the borrower to perform under present loan repayment terms and which may result in reporting these loans as non-performing loans in the future.

Three loans are classified in the Commercial and Industrial portfolio and modified as TDRs and two loans are secured by commercial real estate. The Corporation’s shareloans carried an aggregate balance of $1,128,000 at June 30, 2022, compared to December 31, 2021 when the loan at September 30, 2017 was $2,318,000. The loan was downgraded to substandard and placed on non-accrual status during the third quarterloans carried an aggregate balance of 2015 due to the borrower’s inability to reach a break-even rental income, related to the borrower’s failure to meet projected occupancy rates. During the three months ended September 30, 2017, one participant’s share in the amount of $1,350,000 was repurchased. The collateral evaluation of the total participation at September 30, 2017 carried a value of $3,162,000, after considering estimated appraisal adjustments and cost to sell of 21% and considering the total participation outstanding note balance, resulted in the Bank’s specific allocation of $152,000 for its share of the participation.$1,176,000.

The BankCompany estimates impairment based on its analysis of the cash flows or collateral estimated at fair value less cost to sell. For collateral dependent loans, the estimated appraisal or other qualitative adjustments and cost to sell percentages are determined based on the market area in which the real estate securing the loan is located, among other factors, and therefore, can differ from one loan to another. Of the $16,186,000$12,284,000 in impaired loans at SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2022, none were located outside of the Corporation’sCompany’s primary market area.

The decrease in TDRs at SeptemberJune 30, 20172022 as compared to December 31, 20162021 is mainly attributable to largeregular principal payments and paydowns made on existing TDRs net against smaller loans modified as TDRsthat were completed during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2022.

A quarterly collateral evaluation is performed which may include a site visit, property pictures and discussions with realtors and other similar business professionals to ascertain current values.

For non-accrual loans less than $250,000 upon classification and typically at year end, the CorporationCompany completes a Certificate of Inspection, which includes the results of an onsite inspection, and may consider value indicators such as insured values, tax assessed values, recent sales comparisons and a review of the previous evaluations.

Improving loan quality is a priority. The CorporationCompany actively works with borrowers to resolve credit problems and will continue its close monitoring efforts in 2017.2022. Excluding the assets disclosed in the Non-Performing Assets and Impaired Loans tables below and the Troubled Debt Restructurings section in Note 4 — Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses, management is not aware of any information about borrowers’ possible credit problems which cause serious doubt as to their ability to comply with present loan repayment terms.

Should the economic climate no longer continue to be stable or deteriorate further, borrowers may experience difficulty, and the level of impaired loans and non-performing assets, charge-offs and delinquencies could rise and possibly require additional increases in the Corporation’s allowance for loan losses.

In addition, regulatory authorities, as an integral part of their examinations, periodically review the allowance for possible loan losses. They may require additions to allowances based upon their judgments about information available to them at the time of examination.

The economic climate remains in a very frail state. The war between Ukraine and Russia has exacerbated the difficulties in the national and state economy and experts at all levels are attempting to calculate the intermediate or long term affects. The Company may experience difficulties collecting payments on time from its borrowers, and certain types of loans may need to be modified, which could cause a rise in the level of impaired loans, non-performing assets, charge-offs, and delinquencies. Should such metrics increase, additions to the balance of the Company’s allowance for

loan losses could be required. The extent of the impact of these stressors on the Company’s operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments including inflationary controls enacted, the labor force, supply bottlenecks, the longevity of the war, and the effectiveness in controlling the lingering effects of the COVID-19 outbreak, etc. and any after-effects of these factors. These factors may not immediately impact the Company’s operational and financial performance, as the effects of these factors may lag into the future. The Company is also susceptible to the impact of economic and fiscal policy factors that may evolve in the current economic environment.

A concentration of credit exists when the total amount of loans to borrowers, who are engaged in similar activities that are similarly impacted by economic or other conditions, exceed 10% of total loans. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20172022 and December 31, 2016,2021, management is of the opinion that there were no loan concentrations exceeding 10% of total loans.

Real estate mortgages comprise 81.7%89.1% of the loan portfolio as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2022, as compared to 82.8%88.3% as of December 31, 2016.2021. Real estate mortgages consist of both residential and commercial real estate loans. The real estate loan portfolio is well diversified in terms of borrowers, collateral, interest rates, and maturities. Also, the residential real estate loan portfolio is largely comprised of fixed rate mortgages. The real estate loans are concentrated primarily in the Corporation’sCompany’s market area and are subject to risks associated with the local economy. The commercial real estate loans typically reprice approximately every three to five years and are also concentrated in the Corporation’sCompany’s market area. The Corporation’sCompany’s loss exposure on its impaired loans continues to be mitigated by collateral positions on these loans. The allocated allowance for loan losses associated with impaired loans is generally computed based upon the related collateral value of the loans. The collateral values are determined by recent appraisals or Certificates of Inspection, but are generally discounted by management based on historical dispositions, changes in market conditions since the last valuation and management’s expertise and knowledge of the borrower and the borrower’s business.

DEPOSITS, AND OTHER BORROWED FUNDS

AND SUBORDINATED DEBT

Consumer and commercial retail deposits are attracted primarily by the Bank’s eighteen full service office locations, one loan production office and through its internet banking presence. The Bank offers a broad selection of deposit products and continually evaluates its interest rates and fees on deposit products. The Bank regularly reviews competing financial institutions’ interest rates, especially when establishing interest rates on certificates of deposit.

The increase in total borrowings was mainly the result of increased short-term borrowings as deposits decreased and cash balances were deployed into earning assets.

On December 10, 2020, the Corporation issued $25,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Subordinated Notes due December 31, 2030 (the “2020 Notes”).

CAPITAL STRENGTH

Normal increases in capital are generated by net income, less dividends paid out. During the first ninesix months of the year,ended June 30, 2022, net income less dividends paid increased capital by $1,658,000.$4,031,000. Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income (loss) derived from net unrealized gains on investmentdebt securities available-for-sale also impacts capital. At December 31, 2016,2021 accumulated other comprehensive lossincome was $(1,419,000).$7,588,000. Accumulated other comprehensive incomeloss stood at $1,615,000$20,438,000 at SeptemberJune 30, 2017, an increase2022, a decrease of $3,034,000.$28,026,000. Fluctuations in interest rates have regularly impacted the gain/loss position in the Bank’s investmentsecurities portfolio, as well as its decision to sell securities at a gain or loss. In order to protect the Bank from market risk in the event of further interest rate increases, the Bank chose to sell a portion of its securities during the first nine months of 2017 at an overall net gain of $886,000. TheseThe fluctuations from net unrealized gains on investmentdebt securities available-for-sale do not affect regulatory capital, as the Bank elected to opt-out of the inclusion of this item with the filing of the March 31, 2015 Call Report.

Under the final capital rules that became effective on January 1, 2015, there was a requirement for a common equity Tier 1 capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets which is in addition to the other minimum risk-based capital standards in the rule. Institutions that do not maintain this required capital buffer will become subject to progressively more stringent limitations on the percentage of earnings that can be paid out in dividends or used for stock repurchases and on the payment of discretionary bonuses to senior executive management.

LIQUIDITY

The Corporation’sCompany’s objective is to maintain adequate liquidity to meet funding needs at a reasonable cost and to provide contingency plans to meet unanticipated funding needs or a loss of funding sources, while minimizing interest rate risk. Adequate liquidity is needed to provide the funding requirements of depositors’ withdrawals, loan growth, and other operational needs.

46

Sources of liquidity are as follows:

·Growth in the core deposit base;
·Proceeds from sales or maturities of investment securities;
·Payments received on loans and mortgage-backed securities;
·Overnight correspondent bank borrowings on various credit lines;lines, notes, etc., with various levels of capacity;
·Borrowing capacity available from correspondent banks: FHLB, Atlantic Community Bankers Bank (“ACBB”),
·and Federal Reserve Bank;
·Securities sold under agreements to repurchase; and
·Brokered CDs.

At SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2022 the CorporationCompany had $280,740,000$458,318,000 in availablemaximum borrowing capacity at FHLB (which takes into account(inclusive of the outstanding balances of FHLB long-term notes, and FHLB short-term borrowings)borrowings, and irrevocable standby letters of credit issued by FHLB); the maximum borrowing capacity at ACBB was $15,000,000 and the maximum borrowing capacity of the Federal Discount Window was $6,182,000.

$2,519,000.

The CorporationCompany enters into “Repurchase Agreements” in which it agrees to sell securities subject to an obligation to repurchase the same or similar securities. Because the agreement both entitles and obligates the CorporationCompany to repurchase the assets, the CorporationCompany may transfer legal control of the securities while still retaining effective control. As a result, the repurchase agreements are accounted for as collateralized financing agreements (secured borrowings) and act as an additional source of liquidity. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase were $20,397,000$25,311,000 at SeptemberJune 30, 2017.

2022.

Asset liquidity is provided by investment securities maturing in one year or less, other short-term investments, federal funds sold, and cash and due from banks. The liquidity is augmented by repayment of loans and cash flows from mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. Liability liquidity is accomplished primarily by maintaining a core deposit base, acquired by attracting new deposits and retaining maturing deposits. Also, short-term borrowings provide funds to meet liquidity needs.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities were $7,902,000$7,606,000 and $7,773,000 during the nine months ended September$8,676,000 at June 30, 20172022 and 2016,2021, respectively.

Managing liquidity remains an important segment of asset/liability management. The overall liquidity position of the CorporationCompany is maintained by an active asset/liability management committee. The CorporationCompany believes that its core deposit base is stable even in periods of changing interest rates. Liquidity and funds management are governed by policies and are measured on a monthly basis. These measurements indicate that liquidity generally remains stable and exceeds the Corporation’sCompany’s minimum defined levels of adequacy. Other than the trends of continued competitive pressures and volatile interest rates, there are no known demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in, or that are reasonably likely to result in, liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.

47

Given our financial strength, we expect to be able to maintain adequate liquidity as we manage through the current environment, utilizing current funding options and possibly utilizing new options.

MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments due to changes in interest rates, exchange rates and equity prices. The Corporation’sCompany’s market risk is composed primarily of interest rate risk. The Corporation’sCompany’s interest rate risk results from timing differences in the repricing of assets, liabilities, off-balance sheet instruments, and changes in relationships between rate indices and the potential exercise of explicit or embedded options.

Increases in the level of interest rates also may adversely affect the fair value of the Corporation’sCompany’s securities and other earning assets. Generally, the fair value of fixed-rate instruments fluctuates inversely with changes in interest rates. As a result, increases in interest rates have and could result in further decreases in the fair value of the Corporation’sCompany’s interest-earning assets, which could adversely affect the Corporation’sCompany’s results of operations if sold, or, in the case of interest-earning assets classified as available-for-sale, the Corporation’sCompany’s stockholders’ equity, if retained. Under FASB ASC 320-10,InvestmentInvestments – Debt and Equity Securities, changes in the unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, on debt securities classified as available-for-sale are reflected in the Corporation’sCompany’s stockholders’ equity. The CorporationCompany does not own any trading assets.

Asset/Liability Management

The principal objective of asset/liability management is to manage the sensitivity of the net interest margin to potential movements in interest rates and to enhance profitability through returns from managed levels of interest rate risk. The CorporationCompany actively manages the interest rate sensitivity of its assets and liabilities. Several techniques are used for measuring interest rate sensitivity. Interest rate risk arises from the mismatches in the repricing of rates on assets and liabilities within a given time period, referred to as a rate sensitivity gap. If more assets than liabilities mature or reprice within the time frame, the CorporationCompany is asset sensitive. This position would contribute positively to net interest income in a rising rate environment. Conversely, if more liabilities mature or reprice, the CorporationCompany is liability sensitive. This

53

position would contribute positively to net interest income in a falling rate environment. The Corporation’sCompany’s cumulative gap at one year indicates the CorporationCompany is liability sensitive at SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2022.

Earnings at Risk

The Bank’s Asset/Liability Committee (“ALCO”) is responsible for reviewing the interest rate sensitivity position and establishing policies to monitor and limit exposure to interest rate risk. The guidelines established by ALCO are reviewed by the Corporation’sCompany’s Board of Directors. The CorporationCompany recognizes that more sophisticated tools exist for measuring the interest rate risk in the balance sheet beyond interest rate sensitivity gap. Although the CorporationCompany continues to measure its interest rate sensitivity gap, the CorporationCompany utilizes additional modeling for interest rate risk in the overall balance sheet. Earnings at risk and economic values at risk are analyzed.

Earnings simulation modeling addresses earnings at risk and net present value estimation addresses economic value at risk. While each of these interest rate risk measurements has limitations, taken together they represent a reasonably comprehensive view of the magnitude of interest rate risk into the Corporation.Company.

Earnings Simulation Modeling

The Corporation’sCompany’s net income is affected by changes in the level of interest rates. Net income is also subject to changes in the shape of the yield curve. For example, a flattening of the yield curve would result in a decline in earnings due to the compression of earning asset yields and increased liability rates, while a steepening would result in increased earnings as earning asset and interest-bearing liability yields widen.

Earnings simulation modeling is the primary mechanism used in assessing the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income. The model reflects management’s assumptions related to asset yields and rates paid on liabilities, deposit sensitivity, size and composition of the balance sheet. The assumptions are based on what management believes at that time to be the most likely interest rate environment. Earnings at risk is the change in net interest income from a base case scenario under various scenarios of rate shock increases and decreases in the interest rate earnings simulation model.

The table on the next page 49 presents an analysis of the changes in net interest income and net present value of the balance sheet resulting from various increases or decreases in the level of interest rates, such as two percentage points (200 basis points) in the level of interest rates. The calculated estimates of change in net interest income and net present value of the balance sheet are compared to current limits approved by ALCO and the Board of Directors. The earnings simulation model projects net interest income would decrease 7.3%8.63%, 13.9%16.56% and 19.7%24.40% in the 100, 200 and 300 basis point increasing rate scenarios presented. In addition, the earnings simulation model projects net interest income would increase 2.2%2.41% and 0.5%decrease 0.35% in the 100 and 200 basis point decreasing rate scenarios presented. All of these forecasts are within the Corporation’sCompany’s one year policy guidelines.

48

The analysis and model used to quantify the sensitivity of net interest income becomes less reliable in a decreasing rate scenario given the current unprecedented low interest rate environment with federal funds trading in the 100 – 150 - 175 basis point range. Results of the decreasing basis point declining scenarios are affected by the fact that many of the Corporation’sCompany’s interest-bearing liabilities are at rates below 1% and therefore cannotlikely may not decline 100 or more basis points. However, the Corporation’sCompany’s interest-sensitive assets are able to decline by these amounts. For the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2022, the cost of interest-bearing liabilities averaged 0.8%0.54%, and the yield on interest-earning assets, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, averaged 3.8%3.68%.

Net Present Value Estimation

The net present value measures economic value at risk and is used for helping to determine levels of risk at a point in time present in the balance sheet that might not be taken into account in the earnings simulation model. The net present value of the balance sheet is defined as the discounted present value of asset cash flows minus the discounted present value of liability cash flows. At SeptemberJune 30, 2017, the 100 and 200 basis point immediate decreases in rates are estimated to affect net present value with decreases of 8.7% and 31.6%, respectively. Additionally,2022, net present value is projected to increase 0.5%decrease 1.65%, 8.10%, and decrease 3.8% and 11.4%16.34% in the 100, 200, and 300 basis point immediate increase scenarios, respectively. TheseAdditionally, the 100 and 200

54

basis point immediate decrease scenarios are estimated to affect net present value with a decrease of 7.51% and 26.68%, respectively. All of these scenarios presented are within the Corporation’sCompany’s policy limits, aside from the 200 basis point immediate decrease scenario at a 31.6% decrease compared to a policy limit of a 30.0% decrease.

limits.

The computation of the effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are based on many assumptions. They should not be relied upon solely as being indicative of actual results, since the computations do not account for actions management could undertake in response to changes in interest rates.
