Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Norwood Financial Corp. (Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Wayne Bank (Bank) and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, WCB Realty Corp., Norwood Investment Corp., Norwood Settlement Services, LLC and WTRO Properties. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and with instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all normal, recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of the Company. The operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011 or any other future interim period.
These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes which are incorporated by reference in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2010.
2. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share represents income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate solely to outstanding stock options and are determined using the treasury stock method.
The following table sets forth the weighted average shares outstanding used in the computations of basic and diluted earnings per share:
(in thousands)
Three Months Ended | ||||||||
March 31, | ||||||||
2011 | 2010 | |||||||
Basic EPS weighted average shares outstanding | 2,767 | 2,768 | ||||||
Dilutive effect of stock options | 3 | 7 | ||||||
Diluted EPS weighted average shares outstanding | 2,770 | 2,775 | ||||||
7
Stock options which had no intrinsic value, because their effect would be anti-dilutive and therefore would not be included in the diluted EPS calculation were 163,150 and 137,150 as of March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively based upon the closing price of Norwood stock of $27.25 and $27.00 per share on March 31, 2011 and 2010.
3. Stock-Based Compensation
The Company’s shareholders approved the Norwood Financial Corp 2006 Stock Option Plan at the annual meeting on April 25, 2006 and the Company awarded 47,700 options in 2006, 22,000 options in 2007, 24,000 options in 2008, 27,000 options in 2009 and 28,000 options in 2010, all of which have a twelve month vesting period. As of March 31, 2011, there was $123,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested options granted in 2010 under the plan, which will be fully amortized by December 31, 2011.
A summary of stock options from all plans, adjusted for stock dividends declared, is shown below.
Options | Weighted Average Exercise Price Per Share | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term | Aggregate Intrinsic Value ($000) | ||||||||||
Outstanding at January 1, 2011 | 189,639 | $ | 28.52 | 6.6 | Yrs. | $ | 146 | ||||||

Exercisable at March 31, 2011 | 162,639 | $ | 28.65 | 4.9 | Yrs. | $ | 126 | ||||||
Intrinsic value represents the amount by which the market price of the stock on the measurement date exceeded the exercise price of the option. The stock price was $27.25 as of March 31, 2011 and $27.77 as of December 31, 2010. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, no stock options were exercised.
4. Cash Flow Information
For the purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, interest-bearing deposits with banks all of which mature within 90 days and federal funds sold.
Cash payments for interest for the periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were $1,440,000 and $2,121,000, respectively. Cash payments for income taxes for the periods ending March 31, 2011 and 2010 were $3,000 and $3,000, respectively. Non-cash investing activity for 2011 and 2010 included repossession of other assets and foreclosed mortgage loans transferred to real estate owned of $204,000 and $70,000, respectively.

5. Comprehensive Income
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income. The components of other comprehensive income and related tax effects are as follows.
(in thousands) | Three Months Ended March 31, | |||||||
2011 | 2010 | |||||||
Unrealized holding gains on available for sale securities | $ | 466 | $ | 279 | ||||
Reclassification adjustment for gains Realized in income | (212 | ) | (155 | ) | ||||
Net unrealized gains | 254 | 124 | ||||||
Income tax expense | 86 | 43 | ||||||
Other comprehensive income | $ | 168 | $ | 81 | ||||
6. Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments and Guarantees
The Bank 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 letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets.
The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.
A summary of the Bank’s financial instrument commitments is as follows:
(in thousands) | March 31, | |||||||
2011 | 2010 | |||||||
Commitments to grant loans | $ | 23,466 | $ | 16,473 | ||||
Unfunded commitments under lines of credit | 29,809 | 37,020 | ||||||
Standby letters of credit | 3,636 | 3,438 | ||||||
$ | 56,911 | $ | 56,931 |
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since some of
9
the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer and generally consists of real estate.
The Bank does not issue any guarantees that would require liability recognition or disclosure, other than its standby letters of credit. Standby letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Generally, all letters of credit, when issued, have expiration dates within one year. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as those that are involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Bank, generally, holds collateral and/or personal guarantees supporting these commitments. Management believes that the proceeds obtained through a liquidation of collateral and the enforcement of guarantees would be sufficient to cover the potential amount of future payments required under the corresponding guarantees. The current amount of the liability as of March 31, 2011 for guarantees under standby letters of credit issued is not material.

At March 31, 2011, the Company has 42 securities in an unrealized loss position in the less than twelve months category and one security in the twelve months or more category. In Management’s opinion the unrealized losses less than twelve months principally reflect changes in interest rates subsequent to the acquisition of specific securities. The Company holds a small amount of equity securities in other financial institutions. The value of these equity securities has been impacted by the overall weakness in the financial sector, one of which has been in a loss position for greater than one year. Management believes that the other unrealized loss represents temporary impairment of the security as the Company does not have the intent to sell the security and it is more likely than not that it will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis.
The amortized cost and fair value of debt securities as of March 31, 2011 by contractual maturity are shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

8. Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan Losses
Loans receivable totaled $350.1 million at March 31, 2011 compared to $356.9 million as of December 31, 2010. Residential real estate loans decreased $6.2 million principally due to the sale of $4.7 million of residential mortgages. The loans were sold for interest rate risk management to shorten the average life of the mortgage loan portfolio. Commercial loans including commercial real estate loans increased $900,000 during the period while all other commercial and retail loans decreased $1.4 million due primarily to a reduction in home equity loans as borrowers took advantage of a continued low interest rate environment to convert balances to permanent financing.

The Company maintains a loan review system, which allows for a periodic review of our loan portfolio and the early identification of potential impaired loans. Such system takes into consideration, among other things, delinquency status, size of loans, type and market value of collateral and financial condition of the borrowers. Specific loan loss allowances are established for identified losses based on a review of such information. A loan evaluated for impairment is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probably that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. All loans identified as impaired are evaluated independently. We do not aggregate such loans for evaluation purposes. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for
13
commercial and construction loans by the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent.
Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer and residential mortgage loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are part of a larger relationship that is impaired, or are classified as a troubled debt restructuring.
A loan is considered to be a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) loan when the Company grants a concession to the borrower because of the borrower’s financial condition that it would not otherwise consider. Such concessions include the reduction of interest rates, forgiveness of principal or interest, or other modifications of interest rates that are less than the current market rate for new obligations with similar risk. TDR loans that are in compliance with their modified terms and that yield a market rate may be removed from the TDR status after a period of performance.
The following table shows the amount of loans in each category that were individually and collectively evaluated for impairment at the dates indicated:

Management uses a seven point internal risk rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio. The first three categories are considered not criticized, and are aggregated as “Pass” rated. The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions. The Special Mention category includes assets that are currently protected but are potentially weak, resulting in an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a Substandard classification. Loans in the Substandard category have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt, and have a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if the weaknesses are not corrected. All loans greater than 90 days past due are considered Substandard. Any portion of a loan that has been charged off is placed in the Loss category.
To help ensure that risk ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay a loan as agreed, the Bank has a structured loan rating process with several layers of internal and external oversight. Generally, consumer and residential mortgage loans are included in the Pass categories unless a specific action, such as non performance, repossession, or death occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit event. The Bank’s Loan Review Department is responsible for the timely and accurate risk rating of the loans on an ongoing basis. Every credit which must be approved by Loan Committee or the Board of Directors is assigned a risk rating at time of consideration. Loan Review also annually reviews relationships of $500,000 and over to assign or re-affirm risk ratings. Loans in the Substandard categories that are collectively evaluated for impairment are given separate consideration in the determination of the allowance.

The Company’s primary business activity is with customers located in northeastern Pennsylvania. Accordingly, the Company has extended credit primarily to commercial entities and individuals in this area whose ability to honor their contracts is influenced by the region’s economy.
As of March 31, 2011, the Company considered its concentration of credit risk to be acceptable. The two highest concentrations are in the hospitality lodging industry and summer camps, with loans outstanding of $42.3 million, or 59.0% of capital, to the hospitality lodging industry and $21.7 million, or 31.0% of capital, to summer camps. In 2011, there were no losses in either portfolio. As of March 31, 2011, one motel loan with an outstanding balance of $3,028,000 was on nonaccrual status and considered impaired.
Gross realized gains and gross realized losses on sales of residential mortgage loans were $96,000 and $0, respectively, in the first quarter of 2011 compared to $54,000 and $5,000, respectively, in the same period in 2010. The proceeds from the sales of residential mortgage loans totaled $4.7 million and $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
The allowance for loan losses totaled $5,780,000 as of March 31, 2011 and represented 1.65% of total loans, compared to $5,616,000 at December 31, 2010, and $5,362,000 as of March 31, 2010. The Company had net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2011 of $56,000 compared to $421,000 in the comparable period in 2010. The Company’s loan review process assesses the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis. The process includes an analysis of the risks inherent in the loan portfolio. It includes an analysis of impaired loans and a historical review of credit losses by loan type. Other factors considered
19
include: concentration of credit in specific industries; economic and industry conditions; trends in delinquencies and loan classifications, large dollar exposures and loan growth. Management considers the allowance adequate at March 31, 2011 based on the Company’s criteria. 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.
As of March 31, 2011, non-performing loans totaled $7.4 million, which is 2.11% of total loans compared to $4,079,000, or 1.14% of total loans at December 31, 2010. The increase was principally due to the transfer of one credit to nonaccrual status due to the borrower’s inability to make scheduled payments.
The following table sets forth information regarding non-performing loans and foreclosed real estate at the dates indicated:

9. Fair Value Measurements
Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1: | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. |
Level 2: | 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. |
20
Level 3: | Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported with little or no market activity). |
An asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
For financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are as follows:

The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’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 Company’s financial instruments at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
Cash and cash equivalents (carried at cost):
The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheet for cash and short-term instruments approximate those assets’ fair values.

The fair value of securities available for sale (carried at fair value) 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 industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices. For certain securities which are not traded in active markets or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations are adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, and such adjustments are generally based on available market evidence (Level 2). Internal cash flow models using a present value formula that includes assumptions market participants would use along with indicative exit pricing obtained from broker/dealers (where available) are used to support fair values of certain (Level 3) investments, if applicable.
22
Loans receivable (carried at cost):
The fair values of loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market rates at the balance sheet date that reflect the credit and interest rate-risk inherent in the loans. Projected future cash flows are calculated based upon contractual maturity or call dates, projected repayments and prepayments of principal. Generally, for variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.
Impaired loans (generally carried at fair value):
The Company measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These assets are included as either Level 2 or Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. As of March 31, 2011, the fair value investment in impaired loans totaled $14,856,000 which includes four loans for $11.6 million for which a valuation allowance has been provided based on current collateral values and nine loans for $5.4 million which do not require a valuation allowance since the current collateral value exceeds the loan value. As of March 31, 2011, the Company has recognized charge-offs against the allowance for loan losses on impaired loans in the amount of $700,000 over the life of the loans.
Mortgage servicing rights (generally carried at cost)
The Company utilizes a third party provider to estimate the fair value of certain loan servicing rights. Fair value for the purpose of this measurement is defined as the amount at which the asset could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced liquidation.
Foreclosed real estate owned (carried at fair value):
Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of loan foreclosure are to be sold and are carried at fair value less estimated cost to sell. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised value of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. These assets are included in Level 2 fair value based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Restricted investment in Federal Home Loan Bank stock (carried at cost):
The Company, as a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) system is required to maintain an investment in capital stock of its district FHLB according to a predetermined formula. This restricted stock has no quoted market value and is carried at cost.
In December 2008, the FHLB of Pittsburgh notified member banks that it was suspending dividend payments and the repurchase of excess capital stock. In October, 2010, the FHLB of Pittsburgh repurchased a portion of member bank’s excess stock, but notified member banks that decisions regarding future capital stock repurchases will be made on a quarterly basis.
23
Management evaluates the restricted stock for impairment. Management’s determination of whether these investments are impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of their cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB. Management believes no impairment charge is necessary related to FHLB stock as of March 31, 2011.
Accrued interest receivable and payable (carried at cost):
The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.
Deposit liabilities (carried at cost):
The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g. interest and noninterest checking, passbook savings and money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e. their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.
Short-term borrowings (carried at cost):
The carrying amounts of short-term borrowings approximate their fair values.
Other borrowings (carried at cost):
Fair values of FHLB advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on quoted prices for new FHLB advances with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity. These prices obtained from this active market represent a market value that is deemed to represent the transfer price if the liability were assumed by a third party.
Off-balance sheet financial instruments (disclosed at cost):
Fair values for the Company’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.
24
The estimated fair values of the Bank’s financial instruments were as follows at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

10. New and Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2010, FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, Receivables (Topic 310): Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses. ASU 2010-20 is intended to provide additional information to assist financial statement users in assessing an entity’s credit risk exposures and evaluating the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses. The disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The amendments in ASU 2010-20 encourage, but do not require, comparative disclosures for earlier reporting periods that ended before initial adoption. However, an entity should provide comparative disclosures for those reporting periods ending after initial adoption. The Company has presented the necessary disclosures in Note 8 herein.
In October, 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-26, Accounting for Costs Associated with Acquiring or Renewing Insurance Contracts. This ASU addresses the diversity in practice regarding the interpretation of which costs relating to the acquisition of new or renewal insurance contracts qualify for deferral, The amendments are effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2011 and are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
25
In December, 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts. This ASU modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating an impairment may exist. The qualitative factors are consistent with the existing guidance, which requires that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. For public entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal year, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is not permitted. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. Nonpublic entities may early adopt the amendments using the effective date for public entities. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-29, Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations. The amendments in this update specify that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The amendments also expand the supplemental pro forma disclosures under Topic 805 to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. The amendments in this Update are effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In January 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-01, Receivables (Topic 310): Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20. The amendments in this Update temporarily delay the effective date of the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings in Update 2010-20, enabling public-entity creditors to provide those disclosures after the FASB clarifies the guidance for determining what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. The deferral in this Update will result in more consistent disclosures about troubled debt restructurings. This amendment does not defer the effective date of the other disclosure requirements in Update 2010-20. In the proposed Update for determining what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring, the FASB proposed that the clarifications would be effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2011. For the new disclosures about troubled debt restructurings in Update 2010-20, those clarifications would be applied retrospectively to the beginning of the fiscal year in which the proposal is adopted. The adoption of this guidance in not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-02, Receivables (Topic 310): A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring. The amendments in this Update provide additional guidance or clarification to help creditors in determining whether a creditor has granted a concession and whether a debtor is experiencing financial
26
difficulties for purposes of determining whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. The amendments in this Update are effective for the first interim or annual reporting period beginning on or after June 15, 2011, and should be applied retrospectively to the beginning annual period of adoption. As a result of applying these amendments, an entity may identify receivables that are newly considered impaired. For purposes of measuring impairment of those receivables, an entity should apply the amendments prospectively for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after June 15, 2011. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
11. Proposed Acquisition of North Penn Bancorp, Inc.
On December 15, 2010, the Company announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which Norwood Financial Corp would acquire North Penn Bancorp, Inc. in a stock and cash transaction.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 contains safe harbor provisions regarding forward-looking statements. When used in this discussion, the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “contemplates,” “expects,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Those risks and uncertainties are as follows:
• | our ability to realize the anticipated benefits from our acquisition of North Penn Bancorp, Inc. | |
• | our ability to effectively manage future growth | |
• | loan losses in excess of our allowance | |
• | risks inherent in commercial lending | |
• | real estate collateral which is subject to declines in value | |
• | potential other-than-temporary impairments | |
• | higher deposit insurance premiums | |
• | soundness of other financial institutions | |
• | increased compliance burden under new financial reform legislation | |
• | risk of failure to stabilize the financial system | |
• | current market volatility | |
• | potential liquidity risk | |
• | availability of capital | |
• | regional economic factors | |
• | loss of senior officers | |
• | comparatively low legal lending limits | |
• | limited market for the Company’s stock | |
• | restrictions on ability to pay dividends | |
• | common stock may lose value | |
• | competitive environment | |
• | issuing additional shares may dilute ownership | |
• | extensive and complex governmental regulation and associated cost | |
• | interest rate risks |
Norwood Financial Corp. undertakes no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to those forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
Critical Accounting Policies
Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 (incorporated by reference in Item 8 of the Form 10-K) lists significant accounting policies used in the development and presentation of its financial statements. This discussion and analysis, the significant accounting policies, and other financial statement disclosures identify and address key variables and other qualitative and quantitative factors that are necessary for an understanding and evaluation of the Company and its results of operations.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, potential impairment of restricted
28
stock, accounting for stock options, the valuation of deferred tax assets, the fair value of financial instruments, valuation of impaired loans, and the determination of other-than-temporary impairment losses on securities. Please refer to the discussion of the allowance for loan losses calculation under “Allowance for Loan Losses and Non-performing Assets” in the “Changes in Financial Condition” section.
The Company uses the modified prospective transition method to account for stock based compensation. Under this method companies are required to record compensation expense, based on the fair value of options over the vesting period.
The Deferred income taxes reflect temporary differences in the recognition of the revenue and expenses for tax reporting and financial statement purposes, principally because certain items are recognized in different periods for financial reporting and tax return purposes. Although realization is not assured, the Company believes that it is more likely than not that all deferred tax assets will be realized.
Restricted stock which represents required investment in the common stock of correspondent banks is carried at cost and as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, consists of the common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh. In December 2008, the FHLB of Pittsburgh notified member banks that it was suspending dividend payments and the repurchase of excess capital stock. In October, 2010, the FHLB of Pittsburgh repurchased a portion of member banks excess stock, but notified member banks that decisions regarding future capital stock repurchases will be made on a quarterly basis.
Management evaluates the restricted stock for impairment. Management’s determination of whether these investments are impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of their cost rather than by recognizing temporary decline in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB. Management believes no impairment charge is necessary related to the restricted stock as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses on securities, the Company considers 1) the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than cost 2) the financial condition of the issuer and 3) the intent and ability of the Company to hold the security to allow for a recovery to fair value. The Company believes that the unrealized loss on all other securities at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 represent temporary impairment of the securities, related to changes in interest rates.
29
Changes in Financial Condition
General
Total assets as of March 31, 2011 were $530.9 million compared to $537.0 million as of December 31, 2010, a decrease of $6.1 million. The decrease was due to a $10.8 million reduction in short-term and other borrowings, including repurchase agreements and FHLB borrowings.
Securities
The fair value of securities available for sale as of March 31, 2011 was $143.1 million compared to $145.8 million as of December 31, 2010. The Company purchased $10.3 million of securities principally using the proceeds from $13.3 million of securities sold, called, maturities and principal reductions.
The carrying value of the Company’s securities portfolio (Available-for Sale and Held-to Maturity) consisted of the following:
March 31, 2011 | December 31, 2010 | |||||||||||||||
(dollars in thousands) | Amount | % of portfolio | Amount | % of portfolio | ||||||||||||
US Government agencies | $ | 32,190 | 22.5 | % | $ | 30,268 | 20.7 | % | ||||||||

Total | $ | 143,274 | 100.0 | % | $ | 145,985 | 100.0 | % |
The Company has securities in an unrealized loss position. In management’s opinion, the unrealized losses in U.S. Government agencies and mortgage-backed securities reflect changes in interest rates subsequent to the acquisition of specific securities. The unrealized losses in the State and Political Subdivisions also reflect a widening of spreads due to liquidity and credit concerns in the financial markets. The Company holds a small amount of equity securities in other financial institutions, the value of which has been impacted by the weakening conditions of the financial markets. Management believes that the unrealized losses on all other equity holdings represent temporary impairment of the securities, as the Company has the intent and ability to hold these investments until maturity or market price recovery.
Deposits
During the period, both savings deposits and certificates of deposit increased $1.9 million while interest-bearing demand deposits decreased $1.0 million.

Borrowings
Short-term borrowings as of March 31, 2011 totaled $25.5 million compared to $33.3 million as of December 31, 2010. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase declined $7.8 million principally due to the seasonality of municipal cash management accounts. Short-term borrowings consist of the following:

Convertible note due January 2017 at 4.71% | 10,000 | 10,000 | ||||||
$ | 35,000 | $ | 38,000 |
The convertible notes contain an option which allows the FHLB, at quarterly intervals to change the note to an adjustable-rate advance at three month LIBOR plus 11 to 19 basis points. If the notes are converted, the option allows the Bank to put the funds back to the FHLB at no charge.
31
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Bank is 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 letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.
The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Commitments to grant loans totaled $23.5 million as of March 31, 2011 compared to $21.4 million as of December 31, 2010.
A summary of the contractual amount of the Company’s financial instrument commitments is as follows:
March 31, 2011 | December 31, 2010 | |||||||
(in thousands) | ||||||||
Commitments to grant loans | $ | 23,466 | $ | 21,448 | ||||
Unfunded commitments under lines of credit | 29,809 | 30,311 | ||||||
Standby letters of credit | 3,636 | 3,605 | ||||||
$ | 56,911 | $ | 55,364 | |||||
Stockholders’ Equity and Capital Ratios
As of March 31, 2011, stockholders’ equity totaled $68.6 million, compared to $67.7 million as of December 31, 2010. The net change in stockholders’ equity included $1.7 million of net income, that was partially offset by $801,000 of dividends declared and a $191,000 reduction due to an increase in Treasury Stock. In addition, accumulated other comprehensive income increased $168,000 due to an increase in fair value of securities in the available for sale portfolio, net of tax. This increase in fair value is the result of a change in interest rates and spreads, which may impact the value of the securities. Because of interest rate volatility, the Company’s accumulated other comprehensive income could materially fluctuate for each interim and year-end period.
A comparison of the Company’s regulatory capital ratios is as follows:
March 31, 2011 | December 31, 2010 | |||||||
:Tier 1 Capital | ||||||||
(To average assets) | 12.71 | % | 12.41 | % | ||||
Tier 1 Capital | ||||||||
(To risk-weighted assets) | 18.94 | % | 18.44 | % | ||||
Total Capital | ||||||||
(To risk-weighted assets) | 20.23 | % | 19.74 | % | ||||
The minimum capital requirements imposed by the FDIC on the Bank for leverage, Tier 1 and Total Capital are 4%, 4% and 8%, respectively. The Company has similar capital
32
requirements imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (FRB). The Bank is also subject to more stringent Pennsylvania Department of Banking (PDB) guidelines. The Bank’s capital ratios do not differ significantly from the Company’s ratios. Although not adopted in regulation form, the PDB utilizes capital standards requiring a minimum of 6.5% leverage capital and 10% total capital. The Company and the Bank were in compliance with FRB, FDIC and PDB capital requirements as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
Liquidity
As of March 31, 2011, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $19.5 million in the form of cash, due from banks, Federal Funds sold and short-term deposits with other institutions. In addition, the Company had total securities available for sale of $143.1 million which could be used for liquidity needs. This totals $162.6 million and represents 30.6% of total assets compared to $162.4 million and 30.2% of total assets as of December 31, 2010. The Company also monitors other liquidity measures, all of which were within the Company’s policy guidelines as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. Based upon these measures, the Company believes its liquidity is adequate.
Capital Resources
The Company has a line of credit commitment available from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Pittsburgh for borrowings of up to $20,000,000 which expires in December 2011. There were no borrowings under this line at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
The Company has a line of credit commitment from Atlantic Central Bankers Bank for $7,000,000 which expires June 30, 2011. There were no borrowings under this line as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
The Company has a line of credit commitment available which has no stated expiration date from PNC for $16,000,000. Borrowings under this line were $-0- as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
The Bank’s maximum borrowing capacity with the Federal Home Loan Bank was approximately $183,000,000 as of March 31, 2011, of which $35,000,000 and $38,000,000 was outstanding at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 respectively. Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank are secured by qualifying assets of the Bank.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This report contains or references fully taxable-equivalent (fte) interest income and net interest income, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Interest income (fte) and net interest income (fte) are derived from GAAP interest income and net interest income using an assumed tax rate of 34%. We believe the presentation of interest income (fte) and net interest income (fte) ensures comparability of interest income and net interest income arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources and is consistent with industry practice. Net interest income (fte) is reconciled to GAAP net interest income on page 35. Although the Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance investors’ understanding of our business and performance, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP measures.

Comparison of Operating Results for The Three Months Ended March 31, 2011 to March 31, 2010
General
For the three months ended March 31, 2011, net income totaled $1,660,000 compared to $1,797,000 earned in the similar period in 2010. Earnings per share for the current period were $.60 for basic and fully diluted compared to $.65 per share for both basic and a fully diluted basis for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The resulting annualized return on average assets and annualized return on average equity for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was 1.27% and 9.76%, respectively, compared to 1.38% and 11.10%, respectively, for the similar period in 2010.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis (fte) for the three months ended March 31, 2011, totaled $5,050,000, a decrease of $153,000 or 2.9% from the similar period in 2010. The fte net interest spread and net interest margin were 3.70% and 3.98%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to 3.79% and 4.14%, respectively, for the similar period in 2010.
Interest income (fte) totaled $6,295,000 with a yield on average earning assets of 4.96% compared to $6,848,000 and 5.45% for the 2010 period. The decrease in yield was due to the reinvestment of securities cash flow and new purchases of securities at lower than historical rates, resulting in a 103 basis point decrease in the yield earned on taxable securities. The yields earned on money market investments and tax-free securities were comparable to the first three months of 2010, while the yield on loans receivable decreased 45 basis points due to a higher level of non-performing assets. Average earning assets totaled $508.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $5.2 million over the average for the similar period in 2010. This increase in average earning assets helped offset the decline in asset yields.
36
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $1,245,000 at an average cost of 1.26% compared to $1,645,000 and 1.65% for the similar period in 2010. As a result of the continued low interest rate environment, the Company reduced rates paid on its money market accounts and cash management products, which are included in short-term borrowings. The cost of time deposits, which is the most significant component of funding, declined to 1.74% from 2.20% for the similar period in the prior year. As time deposits matured, they repriced at the current lower rates resulting in the decrease.
Other Income
Other income totaled $1,208,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $1,002,000 for the similar period in 2010. The current period includes a $143,000 gain on the sale of $4.7 million of fixed residential mortgages compared to $75,000 in gains on the sale of $4.3 million of mortgages in the similar period of 2010. The current period also includes a $212,000 gain on the sale of investment securities compared to a $155,000 gain in the first quarter of 2010. All other service charges and fees increased $81,000 compared to the first quarter of last year including a $27,000 increase in earnings from fiduciary activities and a $26,000 improvement in service charges on deposits.
Other Expense
Other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $3,534,000, or an increase of $374,000 from $3,160,000 for the similar period in 2010. Merger related expenses totaled $267,000 in the first quarter while salary and benefit costs increased $86,000 or 5.3%.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense totaled $575,000 for an effective tax rate of 25.7% for the period ending March 31, 2011 compared to $712,000 for an effective tax rate of 28.4% for the similar period in 2010 due to the $14.7 million increase in average tax-exempt securities.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market Risk
Interest rate sensitivity and the repricing characteristics of assets and liabilities are managed by the Asset and Liability Management Committee (ALCO). The principal objective of ALCO is to maximize net interest income within acceptable levels of risk, which are established by policy. Interest rate risk is monitored and managed by using financial modeling techniques to measure the impact of changes in interest rates.
Net interest income, which is the primary source of the Company’s earnings, is impacted by changes in interest rates and the relationship of different interest rates. To manage the impact of the rate changes, the balance sheet must be structured so that repricing opportunities exist for both assets and liabilities at approximately the same time intervals. The Company uses net interest simulation to assist in interest rate risk management. The process includes simulating various interest rate environments and their impact on net interest income. As of March 31, 2011, the level of net interest income at risk in a 200 basis point change in interest rates was
37
within the Company’s policy limits. The Company’s policy allows for a decline of no more than 8% of net interest income for a ± 200 basis point shift in interest rates.
Imbalance in repricing opportunities at a given point in time reflects interest-sensitivity gaps measured as the difference between rate-sensitive assets (RSA) and rate-sensitive liabilities (RSL). These are static gap measurements that do not take into account any future activity, and as such are principally used as early indications of potential interest rate exposures over specific intervals.
As of March 31, 2011, the Company had a positive 90 day interest sensitivity gap of $38.9 million or 7.8% of total assets, similar to the $41.3 million or 7.7% of total assets as of December 31, 2010. Rate sensitive assets repricing within 90 days increased $6.5 million due primarily to loans. Time deposits repricing within 90 days increased $13.6 million, but the increase was offset by a $4.8 million reduction in other borrowings. A positive gap means that rate-sensitive assets are greater than rate-sensitive liabilities at the time interval. This would indicate that in a rising rate environment, the yield on interest-earning assets could increase faster than the cost of interest-bearing liabilities in the 90 day time frame. The repricing intervals are managed by ALCO strategies, including adjusting the average life of the investment portfolio, pricing of deposit liabilities to attract longer term time deposits, loan pricing to encourage variable rate products and evaluation of loan sales of long-term fixed rate mortgages.
