Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses | LOANS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES The loans receivable portfolio is segmented into one-to-four family, multifamily, commercial real estate, business (including Small Business Administration loans), and consumer loans. The allowance for loan and lease losses ("ALLL") reflects management’s judgment in the evaluation of probable loan losses inherent in the portfolio at the balance sheet date. Management uses a disciplined process and methodology to calculate the ALLL each quarter. To determine the total ALLL, management estimates the reserves needed for each segment of the loan portfolio, including loans analyzed individually and loans analyzed on a pooled basis. The general valuation allowance applied to those pooled loans not deemed to be impaired is determined using a three step process: • Trends of historical losses where the net charge-offs on each category are reviewed over a 20 quarter look back period. • Assessment of several qualitative factors which are adjusted to reflect changes in the current environment. • Loss Emergence Period reserve "LEP" which takes into account that borrowers have the potential to have suffered some form of loss-causing event or circumstance but that the lender may be unaware of the event. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we changed the impact rating of the economic factors (related to unemployment and inflation rate) and collateral factors from moderate to high across all loan categories. Additionally, the factors related to problem loans (including delinquency and credit quality) in the Commercial Real Estate category were increased from moderate to high. These changes were made as a response to the ongoing and expected stressed economic environment resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we increased our qualitative factors due to the ongoing pandemic. These increases in reserves were offset by decreases in our quantitative reserve analysis as the rolling 20 quarter historical loss look back period in the multifamily loan category showed improvement. This was due to one historical quarter with large charge-offs no longer being included in the calculation. Additionally, we had an overall decline in loan balances that required reserves. The net result of our analysis showed that a small release was appropriate for the quarter. The ALLL is sensitive to risk ratings assigned to individually evaluated loans and economic assumptions and delinquency trends. Individual loan risk ratings are evaluated based on the specific facts related to that loan. Additions to the ALLL are made by charges to the provision for loan losses. Credit exposures deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the ALLL, while recoveries of previously charged off amounts are credited to the ALLL. The following is a summary of loans receivable at June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020: June 30, 2020 March 31, 2020 $ in thousands Amount Percent Amount Percent Gross loans receivable: One-to-four family $ 96,204 21.1 % $ 105,532 24.8 % Multifamily 93,377 20.5 % 89,241 21.0 % Commercial real estate 146,770 32.2 % 141,761 33.3 % Business (1) 116,453 25.5 % 85,425 20.1 % Consumer (2) 2,976 0.7 % 3,213 0.8 % Total loans receivable $ 455,780 100.0 % $ 425,172 100.0 % Unamortized premiums, deferred costs and fees, net 2,791 3,560 Allowance for loan losses (4,836) (4,946) Total loans receivable, net $ 453,735 $ 423,786 (1) Includes PPP loans and business overdrafts (2) Includes personal loans and consumer overdrafts The Bank is participating as a lender in the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP"), which opened on April 3, 2020. As part of the CARES Act, the Small Business Administration ("SBA") is authorized to temporarily guarantee loans under this new 7(a) loan program. Under the PPP, small businesses and other entities and individuals can apply for loans from existing SBA lenders and other approved regulated lenders that enroll in the program, subject to numerous limitations and eligibility criteria. Since the PPP loans are fully guaranteed by the SBA, there are no additional ALLL reserves required. As of June 30, 2020, the Bank has approved and funded approximately 192 applications totaling $34.4 million of loans under the PPP. Consistent with regulatory guidance and the provisions of the CARES Act, loans less than 30 days past due at December 31, 2019 that were granted COVID-19 related payment deferrals will continue to be considered current and not be reported as TDRs. As of June 30, 2020, the Bank has received 96 applications for payment deferrals on approximately $96.6 million of loans. This total included 71 commercial loans totaling $88.7 million and 25 residential loans totaling $7.9 million. The Bank has been working with the borrowers to determine if there is a risk of any losses associated with repayment and if any additional reserves would have to be allocated to this portfolio. Based on the analysis performed by the Bank, it was determined that additional reserves were not required as approximately half of the commercial loans resumed payments in July and August. The following is an analysis of the allowance for loan losses based upon the method of evaluating loan impairment for the three month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, and the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.

Interest income on nonaccrual loans is recorded when received based upon the collectability of the loan. At June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020, other non-performing assets totaled $120 thousand which consisted of other real estate owned comprised of two foreclosed residential properties. Other real estate loans is included in other assets in the consolidated statements of financial condition. There were no held-for-sale loans at June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020. Although we believe that substantially all risk elements at June 30, 2020 have been disclosed, it is possible that for a variety of reasons, including economic conditions, certain borrowers may be unable to comply with the contractual repayment terms on certain real estate and commercial loans. The Bank utilizes an internal loan classification system as a means of reporting problem loans within its loan categories. Loans may be classified as “Pass,” “Special Mention,” “Substandard,” “Doubtful,” and “Loss.” Loans rated Pass have demonstrated satisfactory asset quality, earning history, liquidity, and other adequate margins of creditor protection. They represent a moderate credit risk and some degree of financial stability. Loans are considered collectible in full, but perhaps require greater than average amount of loan officer attention. Borrowers are capable of absorbing normal setbacks without failure. Loans rated Special Mention have potential weaknesses that deserve management's close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Bank's credit position at some future date. Loans rated Substandard 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 a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses, that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loans rated Doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified Substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, based on currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Loans classified as Loss are those considered uncollectible with insignificant value and are charged off immediately to the allowance for loan losses. One-to-four family residential loans and consumer and other loans are rated non-performing if they are delinquent in payments ninety or more days, a troubled debt restructuring with less than six months contractual performance or past maturity. All other one-to-four family residential loans and consumer and other loans are performing loans.

Total TDR loans at June 30, 2020 were $3.4 million, $1.9 million of which were non-performing as they were either not consistently performing in accordance with their modified terms or not performing in accordance with their modified terms for at least six months. At March 31, 2020, total TDR loans were $3.9 million, of which $2.2 million were non-performing. In certain circumstances, the Bank will modify a loan as part of a TDR under GAAP. Situations around these modifications may include extension of maturity date, reduction in the stated interest rate, rescheduling of future cash flows, reduction in the face amount of the debt or reduction of past accrued interest. Loans modified in TDRs are placed on nonaccrual status until the Company determines that future collection of principal and interest is reasonably assured, which generally requires that the borrower demonstrate performance according to the restructured terms for a period of at least six months. There were no loan modifications made during the three month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. In an effort to proactively resolve delinquent loans, the Bank has selectively extended to certain borrowers concessions such as extensions, rate reductions or forbearance agreements. For the three month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, there were no modified loans that defaulted within 12 months of modification. At June 30, 2020, there were 5 loans in the TDR portfolio totaling $1.5 million that were on accrual status as the Company has determined that future collection of the principal and interest is reasonably assured. These have generally performed according to restructured terms for a period of at least six months. At March 31, 2020, there were 6 loans in the TDR portfolio totaling $1.7 million that were on accrual status. Transactions With Certain Related Persons Federal law requires that all loans or extensions of credit to executive officers and directors must be made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with the general public and must not involve more than the normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable features. The aggregate amount of loans outstanding to related parties was $70 thousand at June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020. There were no advances and principal repayments during the the three months ended June 30, 2020. Furthermore, loans above the greater of $25,000, or 5% of Carver Federal’s capital and surplus (up to $500,000), to Carver Federal’s directors and executive officers must be approved in advance by a majority of the disinterested members of Carver Federal’s Board of Directors. |
