EASTERN VIRGINIA BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Eastern Virginia Bankshares, Inc. (the “Parent”) and its subsidiaries, EVB Statutory Trust I (the “Trust”), and EVB (the “Bank”) and its subsidiaries, are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 Form 10-K”).
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Parent, the Bank and its subsidiaries, collectively referred to as “the Company.” All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, the Parent owns the Trust which is an unconsolidated subsidiary. The subordinated debt owed to this trust is reported as a liability of the Parent.
Nature of Operations
Eastern Virginia Bankshares, Inc. is a bank holding company headquartered in Tappahannock, Virginia that was organized and chartered under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia on September 5, 1997 and commenced operations on December 29, 1997. The Company conducts its primary operations through its wholly-owned bank subsidiary, EVB. Two of EVB’s three predecessor banks, Bank of Northumberland, Inc. and Southside Bank, were established in 1910. The third bank, Hanover Bank, was established as a de novo bank in 2000. In April 2006, these three banks were merged and the surviving bank was re-branded as EVB. The Bank provides a full range of banking and related financial services to individuals and businesses through its network of retail branches. With twenty-two retail branches, the Bank serves diverse markets that primarily are in the counties of Essex, Gloucester, Hanover, Henrico, King and Queen, King William, Lancaster, Middlesex, New Kent, Richmond, Northumberland, Southampton, Surry, Sussex and the City of Colonial Heights. On or around October 18, 2013, the Bank plans to close its Old Church branch located in Hanover County. The decision to close this branch was due to declining branch activity and an absence of community or business initiatives for economic expansion in or around the area in the near future. Current customers of the branch received notification of the planned branch closure on or around July 15, 2013. The Bank operates under a state bank charter and as such is subject to regulation by the Virginia State Corporation Commission-Bureau of Financial Institutions (the “Bureau”) and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”).
The Bank owns EVB Financial Services, Inc., which in turn has a 100% ownership interest in EVB Investments, Inc. and through March 31, 2011 a 50% ownership interest in EVB Mortgage, LLC. EVB Investments, Inc. is a full-service brokerage firm offering a comprehensive range of investment services. EVB Mortgage, LLC was formed to originate and sell residential mortgages. Due to the uncertainties surrounding potential regulatory pressures regarding the origination and funding of mortgage loans on one to four family residences, the Company decided in March 2011 to cease the operations of EVB Mortgage, LLC as a joint venture with Southern Trust Mortgage, LLC. On April 1, 2011, the Company entered into an independent contractor agreement with Southern Trust Mortgage, LLC. Under the terms of this agreement, the Company will advise and consult with Southern Trust Mortgage, LLC and facilitate the marketing and brand recognition of their mortgage business. In addition, the Company will provide Southern Trust Mortgage, LLC with offices at five retail branches in the Company’s market area and access to office equipment at these locations during normal work hours. For its services, the Company shall receive fixed monthly compensation from Southern Trust Mortgage, LLC in the amount of $1 thousand, which is adjustable on a quarterly basis going forward. The Bank has a 75% ownership interest in EVB Title, LLC, which primarily sells title insurance to the mortgage loan customers of the Bank and EVB Mortgage, LLC. The Bank has a 2.33% ownership in Bankers Insurance, LLC, which primarily sells insurance products to customers of the Bank, and other financial institutions that have an equity interest in the agency. The Bank also has a 100% ownership interest in Dunston Hall LLC, POS LLC, Tartan Holdings LLC and ECU-RE LLC which were formed to hold the title to real estate acquired by the Bank upon foreclosure on property of real estate secured loans. The financial position and operating results of all of these subsidiaries are not significant to the Company as a whole and are not considered principal activities of the Company at this time. The Company’s stock trades on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “EVBS.”

Basis of Presentation
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, impairment of loans, impairment of securities, the valuation of other real estate owned, the projected benefit obligation under the defined benefit pension plan, the valuation of deferred taxes, goodwill impairment and fair value of financial instruments. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations in these interim financial statements, have been made. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2013 presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported net income.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-11,“Balance Sheet (Topic 210) – Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” This ASU requires entities to disclose both gross information and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the balance sheet and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02,“Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment.” The amendments in this ASU apply to all entities that have indefinite-lived intangible assets, other than goodwill, reported in their financial statements. The amendments in this ASU provide an entity with the option to make a qualitative assessment about the likelihood that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired to determine whether it should perform a quantitative impairment test. The amendments also enhance the consistency of impairment testing guidance among long-lived asset categories by permitting an entity to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to calculate the asset’s fair value when testing an indefinite-lived intangible asset for impairment. The amendments are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01,“Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” The amendments in this ASU clarify the scope for derivatives accounted for in accordance with Topic 815,“Derivatives and Hedging,” including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset or subject to netting arrangements. An entity is required to apply the amendments for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02,“Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” The amendments in this ASU require an entity to present (either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes) the effects on the line items of net income of significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. In addition, the amendments require a cross-reference to other disclosures currently required for other reclassification items to be reclassified directly to net income in their entirety in the same reporting period. Companies should apply these amendments for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after December 15, 2012. The Company has included the required disclosures from ASU 2013-02 in the consolidated financial statements.

There are no securities classified as “Held to Maturity” or “Trading” at June 30, 2013 or December 31, 2012. The Company’s mortgage-backed securities consist entirely of residential mortgage-backed securities. The Company does not hold any commercial mortgage-backed securities. The Company’s mortgage-backed securities are all agency backed and rated Aaa and AA+ by Moody and S&P, respectively, with no subprime issues.
The Company’s pooled trust preferred securities include one senior issue of Preferred Term Securities XXVII which is current on all payments and on which the Company took an impairment charge in the third quarter of 2009 to reduce the Company’s book value to the market value at September 30, 2009. As of June 30, 2013, that security has an estimated fair value that is $241 thousand greater than its amortized cost after impairment. During the second quarter of 2010, the Company recognized an impairment charge in the amount of $77 thousand on the Company’s investment in Preferred Term Securities XXIII mezzanine tranche, thus reducing the book value of this investment to $0. The decision to recognize the other-than-temporary impairment was based upon an analysis of the market value of the discounted cash flow for the security as provided by Moody’s at June 30, 2010, which indicated that the Company was unlikely to recover any of its remaining investment in these securities.

The amortized cost and estimated fair values of securities at June 30, 2013, by the earlier of contractual maturity or expected maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations without penalties.

Securities with an aggregate book value of $68.3 million and an aggregate fair value of $67.6 million were pledged at June 30, 2013. Securities with an aggregate book value of $104.3 million and an aggregate fair value of $105.8 million were pledged at December 31, 2012.

The Company reviews the investment securities portfolio on a quarterly basis to monitor its exposure to other-than-temporary impairment that may result due to adverse economic conditions and associated credit deterioration. A determination as to whether a security’s decline in market value is other-than-temporary takes into consideration numerous factors and the relative significance of any single factor can vary by security. Some factors the Company may consider in the other-than-temporary impairment analysis include the length of time the security has been in an unrealized loss position, changes in security ratings, financial condition of the issuer, as well as security and industry specific economic conditions. In addition, the Company may also evaluate payment structure, whether there are defaulted payments or expected defaults, prepayment speeds, and the value of any underlying collateral. For certain securities in unrealized loss positions, the Company will enlist independent third-party firms to prepare cash flow analyses to compare the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis of the security.
Based on the Company’s evaluation, management does not believe any unrealized loss at June 30, 2013, represents an other-than-temporary impairment as these unrealized losses are primarily attributable to current financial market conditions for these types of investments particularly changes in interest rates which rose between December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2013 causing bond prices to decline, and are not attributable to credit deterioration. At June 30, 2013, there are 159 debt securities with fair values totaling $205.6 million considered temporarily impaired. Of these debt securities, 154 with fair values totaling $200.6 million were in an unrealized loss position of less than 12 months and 5 with fair values totaling $5.0 million were in an unrealized loss position of 12 months or more. Because the Company intends to hold these investments in debt securities until recovery of the amortized
12
cost basis and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these investments before a recovery of unrealized losses, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2013 and no impairment has been recognized. At June 30, 2013, there are no equity securities in an unrealized loss position.
Securities in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2012, by duration of the period of the unrealized loss, are shown below.

The Company’s investment in Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”) stock totaled $6.6 million and $6.9 million at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. FHLB stock is generally viewed as a long-term investment and as a restricted investment security, which is carried at cost, because there is no market for the stock other than the FHLBs or member institutions. Therefore, when evaluating FHLB stock for impairment, its value is based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. Because the FHLB generated positive net income for each quarterly period beginning January 1, 2010, and ending June 30, 2013, the Company does not consider this investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2013 and no impairment has been recognized. FHLB stock is included in a separate line item on the consolidated balance sheets (Restricted securities, at cost) and is not part of the Company’s securities available for sale portfolio.

Note 4. Deferred Income Taxes
As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had recorded net deferred income tax assets of approximately $13.2 million and $10.7 million, respectively. The realization of deferred income tax assets is assessed and a valuation allowance is recorded if it is “more likely than not” that all or a portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. “More likely than not” is defined as greater than a 50% chance. Management considers all available evidence, both positive and negative, to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is needed. Management’s assessment is primarily dependent on historical taxable income and projections of future taxable income, which are directly related to the Company’s core earnings capacity and its prospects to generate core earnings in the future. Projections of core earnings and taxable income are inherently subject to uncertainty and estimates that may change given the uncertain economic outlook, banking industry conditions and other factors. Further, management has considered future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and limited, prudent and feasible tax-planning strategies, such as changes in investment security income (tax-exempt to taxable), additional sales of loans and sales of branches/buildings with an appreciated asset value over the tax basis. Based upon an analysis of available evidence, management has determined that it is “more likely than not” that the Company’s deferred income tax assets as of June 30, 2013 will be fully realized and therefore no valuation allowance to the Company’s deferred income tax assets was recorded. However, the Company can give no assurance that in the future its deferred income tax assets will not be impaired because such determination is based on projections of future earnings and the possible effect of certain transactions which are subject to uncertainty and based on estimates that may change due to changing economic conditions and other factors. Due to the uncertainty of estimates and projections, it is possible that the Company will be required to record adjustments to the valuation allowance in future reporting periods.
The Company’s ability to realize its deferred tax assets may be limited if the Company experiences an ownership change as defined by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). For additional information see Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Due primarily to the net operating loss incurred for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company has recorded income taxes receivable, which have been carried back to prior years, of approximately $2.6 million at both June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, which are included in other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Note 6. Borrowings
Federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements. The Company has unsecured lines of credit with SunTrust Bank, Community Bankers Bank and Pacific Coast Bankers Bank for the purchase of federal funds in the amount of $20.0 million, $15.0 million and $5.0 million, respectively. These lines of credit have a variable rate based on the lending bank’s daily federal funds sold rate and are due on demand. Repurchase agreements are secured transactions and generally mature the day following the day sold. Customer repurchases are standard transactions that involve a Bank customer instead of a wholesale bank or broker. The Company offers this product as an accommodation to larger retail and commercial customers that request safety for their funds beyond the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) deposit insurance limits. The Company does not use or have any open repurchase agreements with broker-dealers.

At June 30, 2013 and 2012, options to acquire 179,412 and 186,962 shares of common stock, respectively were not included in computing diluted earnings per common share because their effects were anti-dilutive.
25
On June 12, 2013, the Company issued 5,240,192 shares of a new series of non-voting mandatorily convertible non-cumulative preferred stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) in connection with its private placements. For more information related to the conversion rights on these preferred shares, see Note 11 – Preferred Stock and Warrant. The dilutive effect of these shares has been included in the tables above. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the weighted average dilutive effect of the Series B Preferred Stock was 1,094,106 shares and 550,075 shares, respectively, compared to no weighted average dilutive effect of the Series B Preferred Stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.
Note 8. Stock Based Compensation Plans
On September 21, 2000, the Company adopted the Eastern Virginia Bankshares, Inc. 2000 Stock Option Plan (the “2000 Plan”) to provide a means for selected key employees and directors to increase their personal financial interest in the Company, thereby stimulating their efforts and strengthening their desire to remain with the Company. Under the 2000 Plan, up to 400,000 shares of Company common stock could be granted in the form of stock options. On April 17, 2003, the shareholders approved the Eastern Virginia Bankshares, Inc. 2003 Stock Incentive Plan, amending and restating the 2000 Plan (the “2003 Plan”) still authorizing the issuance of up to 400,000 shares of common stock under the plan, but expanding the award types available under the plan to include stock options, stock appreciation rights, common stock, restricted stock and phantom stock. Under the terms of the plan document, after April 17, 2013 no awards of shares of common stock may be granted under the 2003 Plan. Any awards previously granted under the 2003 Plan that were outstanding as of April 17, 2013 remain outstanding and will vest, etc. in accordance with their regular terms.
On April 19, 2007, the Company’s shareholders approved the Eastern Virginia Bankshares, Inc. 2007 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2007 Plan”) to enhance the Company’s ability to recruit and retain officers, directors, employees, consultants and advisors with ability and initiative and to encourage such persons to have a greater financial interest in the Company. The 2007 Plan authorizes the Company to issue up to 400,000 additional shares of common stock pursuant to grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights, common stock, restricted stock, performance shares, incentive awards and stock units. There were 366,000 shares still available to be granted as awards under the 2007 Plan as of June 30, 2013.
Accounting standards require companies to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, such as stock options, based on the fair value of those awards at the date of grant.
Accounting standards also require that new awards to employees eligible for retirement prior to the awards becoming fully vested be recognized as compensation cost over the period through the date that the employee first becomes eligible to retire and is no longer required to provide service to earn the award. The Company’s stock options granted to eligible participants are being recognized, as required, as compensation cost over the vesting period except in the instance where a participant reaches normal retirement age of 65 prior to the normal vesting date. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, there was no stock option compensation expense, compared to stock option compensation expense of $10 thousand and $21 thousand for the same periods of 2012 respectively, which was included in salaries and employee benefits expense in the consolidated statements of income.
Stock option compensation expense is the estimated fair value of options granted, amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each stock option award. There were no stock options granted or exercised in the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
A summary of the Company’s stock option activity and related information for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

The Company issued no restricted stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. On June 29, 2012, the Company granted 34,000 shares of restricted stock under the 2007 Plan to its executive officers in connection with Troubled Asset Relief Program (“TARP”) compliant restricted stock awards. All of these shares are subject to time vesting over a five year period, and generally vest 40% on the second anniversary of the grant date and 20% on each of the third, fourth and fifth anniversaries of the grant date. On July 1, 2009, the Company awarded 18,000 shares of restricted stock to employees who were not subject to the TARP executive compensation restrictions. One half of these shares are subject to time vesting at 20% per year over a five year period. The other half of the 18,000 restricted shares granted on July 1, 2009 were performance based. On December 16, 2010, the Company cancelled 8,000 shares of restricted stock previously awarded to its Chief Executive Officer on July 1, 2009 as the award did not contain the terms necessary to comply with the TARP executive compensation restrictions and therefore prevented the employee from accruing or vesting in any portion of the award while the TARP executive compensation restrictions apply. In conjunction with this cancellation, the Company granted a TARP compliant restricted stock award to its Chief Executive Officer in an equal amount of shares and in substantially the same form as previously awarded. On June 30, 2012, any of the performance based shares that had not previously been forfeited for other reasons were forfeited because the Company’s financial achievements for the year ended December 31, 2011 did not meet pre-specified targets for earnings per share or return on equity compared to a defined peer group.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, restricted stock compensation expense was $7 thousand and $14 thousand, respectively, compared to restricted stock compensation expense of $3 thousand and $6 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. Restricted stock compensation expense is included in salaries and employee benefits expense in the consolidated statements of income. Restricted stock compensation expense is accounted for using the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date the restricted shares were awarded, which was $3.72 per share for the 2012 award, $3.75 per share for the 2010 award and $8.31 per share for the 2009 awards.
27
A summary of the status of the Company’s nonvested shares in relation to the Company’s restricted stock awards as of June 30, 2013, and changes during the six months ended June 30, 2013, is presented below; the weighted average price is the weighted average fair value at the date of grant:
| | | | | | | | |

At June 30, 2013, there was $102 thousand of total unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted stock awards. This unearned compensation is being amortized over the remaining vesting period for the time based shares.
Note 9. Employee Benefit Plan – Pension
The Company has historically maintained a defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all of the Company’s employees. The plan was amended January 28, 2008 to freeze the plan with no additional contributions for a majority of participants. Employees age 55 or greater or with 10 years of credited service were grandfathered in the plan. No additional participants have been added to the plan. The plan was again amended February 28, 2011 to freeze the plan with no additional contributions for grandfathered participants. Benefits for all participants have remained frozen in the plan since such action was taken. Effective January 1, 2012, the plan was amended and restated as a cash balance plan. Under a cash balance plan, participant benefits are stated as an account balance. An opening account balance was established for each participant based on the lump sum value of his or her accrued benefit as of December 31, 2011 in the original defined benefit pension plan. Each participants account will be credited with an “interest” credit each year. The interest rate for each year is determined as the average annual interest rate on the 2 year U.S. Treasury securities for the month of December preceding the plan year. Components of net periodic pension cost (benefit) related to the Company’s pension plan were as follows for the periods indicated:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
The Company made no contributions to the pension plan during 2012. The Company has not determined at this time how much, if any, contributions to the plan will be made for the year ending December 31, 2013.
Note 10. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. U.S. GAAP requires that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. U.S. GAAP also establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the valuation inputs into three broad levels. Based on the underlying inputs, each fair value measurement in its entirety is reported in one of the three levels. These levels are:
| • | | Level 1 – Valuation is based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments traded in active markets. |
28
| • | | Level 2 – Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. |
| • | | Level 3 – Valuation is determined using model-based techniques with significant assumptions not observable in the market. |
U.S. GAAP allows an entity the irrevocable option to elect fair value (the fair value option) for the initial and subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis. The Company has not made any fair value option elections as of June 30, 2013.
Following is 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.
Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Securities Available For Sale. Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar securities by using pricing models that consider observable market data (Level 2). In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. Currently, all of the Company’s available for sale securities are considered to be Level 2 securities.
The following table summarizes financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis at June 30, 2013 Using | |

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
Certain assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These adjustments to fair value usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-fair value accounting or impairment write-downs of individual assets.
Impaired Loans.Loans are designated as impaired when, in the judgment of management based on current information and events, it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected. The measurement of loss associated with impaired loans can be based on either the observable market price of the loan or the fair value of the collateral. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory, and accounts receivable. The vast majority of the collateral is real estate. The value of real estate collateral is determined utilizing an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser outside of the Company using observable market data (Level 2). However, if the collateral value is significantly adjusted due to differences in the comparable properties, or is discounted by the Company because of marketability, then the fair value is considered Level 3.
The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal if deemed significant, or the net book value on the applicable business’s financial statements if not considered significant. Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivables collateral are based on financial statement balances or aging reports (Level 3). Impaired loans allocated to the allowance for loan losses are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan losses on the consolidated statements of income.
Other Real Estate Owned.Other real estate owned (“OREO”) is measured at fair value less cost to sell, based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser outside of the Company. If the collateral value is significantly adjusted due to differences in the comparable properties, or is discounted by the Company because of marketability, then the fair value is considered Level 3. OREO is measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Any initial fair value adjustment is charged against the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred and included in other noninterest expense on the consolidated statements of income.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
U.S. GAAP requires disclosure of the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis. The methodologies and assumptions for estimating the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis are discussed above. The methodologies and assumptions for other financial assets and financial liabilities are discussed below:
Cash and Short-Term Investments. For those short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Investment Securities. For securities and marketable equity securities held for investment purposes, fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. For other securities held as investments, fair value equals quoted market price, if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted prices for similar securities. All securities prices are provided by independent third party vendors.
Restricted Securities. The carrying amount approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the correspondent banks.
Loans. The fair value of performing loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar remaining maturities. This calculation ignores loan fees and certain factors affecting the interest rates charged on various loans such as the borrower’s creditworthiness and compensating balances and dissimilar types of real estate held as collateral. The fair value of impaired loans is measured as described within the Impaired Loans section of this note.
Deposits. The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using market rates for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Short-Term Borrowings. The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased and other short-term borrowings maturing within 90 days approximate their fair values. Fair values of other short-term borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
Long-Term Borrowings. The fair values of the Company’s long-term borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
Accrued Interest Receivable and Accrued Interest Payable. The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.
32
Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments. The fair value of commitments to extend credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present credit worthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates.
The fair value of standby letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties at the reporting date. The fair value of guarantees of credit card accounts previously sold is based on the estimated cost to settle the obligations with the counterparty at the reporting date. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair value of loan commitments, standby letters of credit and credit card guarantees are not significant and are not included in the table below.
The estimated fair value and the carrying value of the Company’s recorded financial instruments are as follows:

The Company assumes interest rate risk (the risk that general interest rate levels will change) as a result of the Company’s normal operations. As a result, the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments will change when interest rate levels change and that change may be either favorable or unfavorable to the Company. The Company attempts to match maturities of assets and liabilities to the extent believed necessary to minimize interest rate risk. However, borrowers with fixed rate obligations are less likely to prepay in a rising rate environment. Conversely, depositors who are receiving fixed rates are more likely to withdraw funds before maturity in a rising rate environment and less likely to do so in a falling rate environment. The Company monitors rates and maturities of assets and liabilities and attempts to minimize interest rate risk by adjusting terms of new loans and deposits and by investing in securities with terms that mitigate the Company’s overall interest rate risk.
Note 11. Preferred Stock and Warrant
On January 9, 2009, the Company signed a definitive agreement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”) under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 to participate in the Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company sold 24,000 shares of its Series A fixed rate cumulative perpetual preferred stock, liquidation value $1,000 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), to the Treasury for an aggregate purchase price of $24 million. The Series A Preferred Stock pays a cumulative dividend at a rate of 5% for the first five years, and if not redeemed, pays a rate of 9% starting at the beginning of the sixth year. As part of its purchase of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Treasury was also issued a warrant to purchase up to 373,832 shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial exercise price of $9.63 per share. If not exercised, the warrant expires after ten years. Under the agreement with the Treasury, the Company was subject to restrictions on its ability to increase the dividend rate on its common stock and to repurchase its common stock without Treasury consent prior to January 9, 2012.
Accounting for the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock included entries to the equity portion of the Company’s consolidated balance sheet to recognize the Series A Preferred Stock at the full amount of the issuance, the warrant and discount on the Series A Preferred Stock at values calculated by discounting the future cash flows by a prevailing interest rate that a similar security would receive in the current market environment. At the time of issuance, that discount rate was determined to be 12%. The fair value of the warrant of $950 thousand was calculated using the Black-Scholes model with inputs of 7 year volatility, average rate of quarterly dividends, 7 year Treasury strip rate and the exercise price of $9.63 per share exercisable for up to 10 years. The present value of the Series A Preferred Stock
34
using a 12% discount rate was $14.4 million. The Series A Preferred Stock discount determined by the allocation of discount to the warrant is being accreted quarterly over a 5 year period on a constant effective yield method at a rate of approximately 6.4%. Allocation of the Series A Preferred Stock discount and the warrant as of January 9, 2009 is provided in the tables below:

On February 17, 2011, the Company entered into a written agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond (“Reserve Bank”) and the Bureau. The Written Agreement was terminated on July 30, 2013. Under the terms of this written agreement, the Parent and the Bank were subject to additional limitations and regulatory restrictions and could not declare or pay dividends to its shareholders (including payments by the Parent related to trust preferred securities) without prior regulatory approval. See Note 14 – Formal Written Agreement.
On May 15, 2013, the Company deferred its tenth consecutive dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock issued to the Treasury. Deferral of dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock does not constitute an event of default. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock are, however, cumulative, and the Company has accumulated the dividends in accordance with the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock and U.S. GAAP and reflected the accumulated dividends as a portion of the effective dividend on Series A Preferred Stock on the consolidated statements of income. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had accumulated $3.0 million for dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock. The Company has notified the Treasury that it is deferring the August 15, 2013 dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock. In addition, because dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have not been paid for more than six quarters, the authorized number of directors on the Company’s Board of Directors has increased by two, and the Treasury (or any future holders of the Series A Preferred Stock) has the right, voting as a class, to elect two directors to the Company’s Board of Directors at the next annual meeting (or a special meeting called for that purpose) and each annual meeting until all owed and unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have been paid. In April 2012, the Treasury assigned an observer to attend the Company’s board meetings, in part to determine whether and how to exercise this right, but to date the Treasury has not yet exercised this right.
In connection with its private placements, on June 12, 2013, the Company issued 5,240,192 shares of its Series B Preferred Stock for a gross purchase price of $23.8 million, or $4.55 per share. The Series B Preferred Stock has no maturity date. The holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends if, as and when declared by the Company’s Board of Directors, in an identical form of consideration and at the same time, as those dividends or distributions that would have been payable on the number of whole shares of the Company’s common stock that such shares of Series B Preferred Stock would be convertible into upon satisfaction of certain conditions. The Company will not pay any dividends with respect to its common stock unless an equivalent dividend also is paid to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock ranks junior with regard to dividends to any class or series of capital stock of the Company the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series will rank senior to the common stock or the Series B Preferred Stock as to dividend rights and/or as to rights on liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, including the Series A Preferred Stock.
35
For a summary of the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock, including the conditions under which shares of Series B Preferred Stock convert into shares of the Company’s common stock, see the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 14, 2013 and the exhibits thereto.
Note 12. Trust Preferred Debt
On September 17, 2003, $10 million of trust preferred securities were placed through EVB Statutory Trust I in a pooled underwriting totaling approximately $650 million. The trust issuer has invested the total proceeds from the sale of the trust preferred securities in Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures (the “Junior Subordinated Debentures”) issued by the Parent. The trust preferred securities pay cumulative cash distributions quarterly at a variable rate per annum, reset quarterly, equal to the 3-month LIBOR plus 2.95%. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the interest rate was 3.22% and 3.26%, respectively. The dividends paid to holders of the trust preferred securities, which are recorded as interest expense, are deductible for income tax purposes. The trust preferred securities have a mandatory redemption date of September 17, 2033, and became subject to varying call provisions beginning September 17, 2008. The Parent has fully and unconditionally guaranteed the trust preferred securities through the combined operation of the debentures and other related documents. The Parent’s obligation under the guarantee is unsecured and subordinate to senior and subordinated indebtedness of the Parent.
The trust preferred securities may be included in Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital adequacy determination purposes up to 25% of Tier 1 capital after its inclusion. The portion of the securities not considered as Tier 1 capital will be included in Tier 2 capital. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, all of the trust preferred securities qualified as Tier 1 capital.
Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the Company is permitted to elect from time to time to defer regularly scheduled interest payments on its outstanding Junior Subordinated Debentures relating to its trust preferred securities. If the Company defers interest payments on the Junior Subordinated Debentures for more than 20 consecutive quarters, the Company would be in default under the governing agreements for such notes and the amount due under such agreements would be immediately due and payable.
On February 17, 2011, the Company entered into a written agreement with the Reserve Bank and the Bureau. The Written Agreement was terminated on July 30, 2013. Under the terms of this written agreement, the Company could not make payments on its outstanding Junior Subordinated Debentures relating to the trust preferred securities without prior regulatory approval. See Note 14 – Formal Written Agreement.
The Company received regulatory permission to pay the interest payment on its outstanding Junior Subordinated Notes regularly scheduled for March 2011. In June 2011, the Company began deferring its regularly scheduled interest payments on its outstanding Junior Subordinated Debentures relating to its trust preferred securities. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had deferred nine quarterly interest payments on its Junior Subordinated Notes.

Note 13. Capital Requirements
The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s and the Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components (such as interest rate risk), risk weightings and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies.
On February 17, 2011, the Company entered into a written agreement with the Reserve Bank and the Bureau. The Written Agreement was terminated on July 30, 2013. Under the terms of this written agreement, the Parent and the Bank were subject to additional limitations and regulatory restrictions and could not declare or pay dividends to its shareholders (including payments by the Parent on its trust preferred securities) and could not purchase or redeem shares of its stock without prior regulatory approval. See Note 14 – Formal Written Agreement.
In July 2013, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted rules to implement the Basel III capital framework and for calculating risk-weighted assets, as modified by the U.S. federal bank regulators (the “Basel III Capital Rules”). The Basel III Capital Rules, when fully implemented, will modify the regulatory capital requirements that apply to the Company and the Bank. For further information about these final rules, refer to Part I, Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under the heading “Basel III Final Rules” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
As of June 30, 2013, the most recent notification from the Reserve Bank categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, an institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following tables. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category. A comparison of the June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 capital ratios of the Company and the Bank with minimum regulatory guidelines is as follows:

Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions. Those accounting policies with the greatest uncertainty and that require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments affecting the application of these policies, and the likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions, or using different assumptions, are described below.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The Company establishes the allowance for loan losses through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for loan losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when we believe that the collection of the principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries of losses previously charged against the allowance are credited to the allowance. The allowance represents an amount that, in our judgment, will be adequate to absorb any losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible. Our judgment in
41
determining the level of the allowance is based on evaluations of the collectability of loans while taking into consideration such factors as trends in delinquencies and charge-offs, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay and the value of collateral, overall portfolio quality and review of specific potential losses. This evaluation is inherently subjective because it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. For more information see the section titled “Asset Quality” within this Item 2.
Impairment of Loans
The Company considers a loan impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest when due, according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Company does not consider a loan impaired during a period of insignificant payment shortfalls if we expect the ultimate collection of all amounts due. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for real estate (including multifamily residential, construction, farmland and non-farm, non-residential) and commercial loans by either 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, representing consumer, one to four family residential first and seconds and home equity lines, are collectively evaluated for impairment. The Company maintains a valuation allowance to the extent that the measure of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment. Troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) are also considered impaired loans. A TDR occurs when the Company, for economic or legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial condition, grants a concession (including, without limitation, rate reductions to below-market rates, payment deferrals, forbearance and, in some cases, forgiveness of principal or interest) to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. For more information see the section titled “Asset Quality” within Item 2.
Impairment of Securities
Impairment of securities occurs when the fair value of a security is less than its amortized cost. For debt securities, impairment is considered other-than-temporary and recognized in its entirety in net income if either (i) the Company intends to sell the security or (ii) it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If, however, the Company does not intend to sell the security and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery, the Company must determine what portion of the impairment is attributable to a credit loss, which occurs when the amortized cost basis of the security exceeds the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected from the security. If there is no credit loss, there is no other-than-temporary impairment. If there is a credit loss, other-than-temporary impairment exists, and the credit loss must be recognized in net income and the remaining portion of impairment must be recognized in other comprehensive income. For equity securities, impairment is considered to be other-than-temporary based on the Company’s ability and intent to hold the investment until a recovery of fair value. Other-than-temporary impairment of an equity security results in a write-down that must be included in net income. The Company regularly reviews each investment security for other-than-temporary impairment based on criteria that include the extent to which cost exceeds market price, the duration of that market decline, the financial health of and specific prospects for the issuer, the Company’s best estimate of the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from debt securities, the Company’s intention with regard to holding the security to maturity and the likelihood that the Company would be required to sell the security before recovery.
Other Real Estate Owned
Real estate acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure is held for sale and is stated at the lower of cost or estimated fair market value of the property, less estimated disposal costs, if any. Any excess of cost over the estimated fair market value less costs to sell at the time of acquisition is charged to the allowance for loan losses. The estimated fair market value is reviewed periodically by management and any write-downs are charged against current earnings.
Goodwill
Goodwill is not amortized but is subject to impairment tests on at least an annual basis or earlier whenever an event occurs indicating that goodwill may be impaired. In assessing the recoverability of the Company’s goodwill, all of which was recognized in connection with the acquisition of branches in 2003 and 2008, we must make assumptions in order to determine the fair value of the respective assets. Major assumptions used in the impairment analysis were discounted cash flows, merger and acquisition transaction values (including as compared to tangible book value), and stock market capitalization. The Company completed the annual goodwill impairment test during the fourth quarter of 2012 and determined there was no impairment to be recognized in 2012. If the underlying estimates and related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record impairment charges.
42
Retirement Plan
The Company has historically maintained a defined benefit pension plan. Effective January 28, 2008, the Company took action to freeze the plan with no additional contributions for a majority of participants. Employees age 55 or greater or with 10 years of credited service were grandfathered in the plan. No additional participants have been added to the plan. The plan was again amended on February 28, 2011, to freeze the plan with no additional contributions for grandfathered participants. Benefits for all participants have remained frozen in the plan since such action was taken. Effective January 1, 2012, the plan was amended and restated as a cash balance plan. Under a cash balance plan, participant benefits are stated as an account balance. An opening account balance was established for each participant based on the lump sum value of his or her accrued benefit as of December 31, 2011 in the original defined benefit pension plan. Each participant’s account will be credited with an “interest” credit each year. The interest rate for each year is determined as the average annual interest rate on the 2 year U.S. Treasury securities for the month of December preceding the plan year. Plan assets, which consist primarily of mutual funds invested in marketable equity securities and corporate and government fixed income securities, are valued using market quotations. The Company’s actuary determines plan obligations and annual pension expense using a number of key assumptions. Key assumptions may include the discount rate, the estimated return on plan assets and the anticipated rate of compensation increases. Changes in these assumptions in the future, if any, or in the method under which benefits are calculated may impact pension assets, liabilities or expense.
Accounting for Income Taxes
Determining the Company’s effective tax rate requires judgment. In the ordinary course of business, there are transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax outcomes are uncertain. In addition, the Company’s tax returns are subject to audit by various tax authorities. Although we believe that the estimates are reasonable, no assurance can be given that the final tax outcome will not be materially different than that which is reflected in the income tax provision and accrual.
For further information concerning accounting policies, refer to Item 8. “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data,” under the heading “Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Executive Overview
Eastern Virginia Bankshares, Inc. is committed to delivering strong long-term earnings using a prudent allocation of capital, in business lines where we have demonstrated the ability to compete successfully. During the first six months of 2013, the national and local economies continued to show limited signs of recovery with the main challenges continuing to be persistent unemployment above historical levels and uneven economic growth. Macro-economic and political issues continue to temper the global economic outlook and as such the Company remains cautiously optimistic regarding the limited signs of improvement seen in our local markets. Despite this, the Company believes that our local markets are poised for stronger growth in the coming months and years than the economic recovery in our markets in recent periods. Much of the Company’s success during the first six months of 2013 is the direct result of our asset quality improvements, as the current interest rate environment, although slightly rising recently, continues to negatively impact our margin. The Company continues to execute on a plan which it believes is critical to its success in the near term including closely monitoring and aggressively addressing asset quality issues, containing noninterest expenses and lowering our cost of funding. The Company was able to achieve its goals related to this plan during the first six months of 2013 as we reduced nonperforming assets by 41.6% from December 31, 2012 to June 30, 2013, noninterest expenses by 3.1% year to date as compared to the same period in 2012, and lowered our cost of interest-bearing deposits to 0.70% for the second quarter of 2013, compared to 0.76% in the fourth quarter of 2012. With the close of the second quarter of 2013, the Company is reporting its tenth straight quarter of net income.
2013 Capital Initiative and Strategic Initiatives
On June 12, 2013, the Company closed on its previously disclosed private placements (the “Private Placements”) with certain institutional investors which raised aggregate gross proceeds of $45.0 million through Private Placements of approximately 4.6 million shares of common stock and 5.2 million shares of Series B Preferred Stock each at $4.55 per share. For more information, see Item 1. “Financial Statements,” under the heading “Note 11. Preferred Stock and Warrant.”
43
On July 1, 2013, the Company announced the expiration as of 5:00 pm on June 28, 2013 of the subscription period for its previously announced $5.0 million Rights Offering. The Rights Offering resulted in an oversubscription and, as a result, on July 5, 2013 the Company received gross proceeds of $5.0 million from the issuance of 1,098,897 shares of common stock. After issuing the newly subscribed common shares, the Company had approximately 11.8 million total common shares outstanding.
The Company intends to use the gross proceeds from the 2013 Capital Initiative (consisting of the Private Placements and Rights Offering) for general corporate purposes, including strengthening its balance sheet, the accelerated resolution and disposition of assets adversely classified by the Company (consisting of other real estate owned and classified loans), the optimization of the Company’s balance sheet through the restructuring of FHLB advances and the eventual repurchase of the Series A Preferred Stock that was issued to Treasury through TARP. The Company anticipates that the Treasury may dispose of the Series A Preferred Stock through a public auction during the second half of 2013. During the remainder of 2013 the Company also plans to focus on online and mobile banking options offered to the Bank’s customers, including by introducing or improving the Bank’s portfolio of internet and mobile banking products and services. As the Company executes these business strategies, senior management and the board of directors will continue to evaluate other initiatives that they believe will best position the Company for long-term success.
Summary of 2013 Year to Date Operating Results and Financial Condition
During the six months ended June 30, 2013, net income was $1.8 million, an increase of $91 thousand or 5.5% over net income of $1.7 million for the same period of 2012. Even with this improvement, the Company’s earnings remain constrained due to the protracted low-interest rate environment, lingering credit quality issues, excess liquidity and a lack of loan demand resulting from the challenging economic climate, all of which contribute to compressing the Company’s net interest margin. The Company had another strong quarter liquidating our troubled assets, reducing our classified assets and improving our overall asset quality. The Company continues to be aggressive in the liquidation of troubled assets and that approach is evident with the overall reduction as of June 30, 2013 of nonperforming assets by 41.6% compared to December 31, 2012 and 56.2% compared to June 30, 2012 through a combination of successful workouts and write-downs of previously identified impaired loans. The Company’s Special Assets Division, which was formed in the second quarter of 2011 and works closely with our Executive Management Asset Quality Committee, has worked tirelessly in formulating workout strategies and conducting asset dispositions. Despite our aggressive approach in liquidating troubled assets, the Company’s allowance for loan losses remains healthy, producing a ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans of 250.84% at June 30, 2013 compared to 171.29% at December 31, 2012. Additionally, the Company was able to reduce its ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans at June 30, 2013 to 1.06%, compared to 1.73% at December 31, 2012 while also reducing its ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets at June 30, 2013 to 0.87%. With an economic outlook consisting of modest growth, elevated unemployment and low interest rates in the near term, the Company continues to believe the primary drivers behind our continued improvement include focusing on asset quality issues, containing noninterest expenses and lowering our cost of funding while maintaining adequate levels of liquidity, reserves for credit losses and capital.
The primary drivers for the Company’s results for the six months ended June 30, 2013 continue to be the overall compression of its margins, the elevated levels of the provision for loan losses over historical levels, the elevated levels of FDIC insurance premiums, professional and collection/repossession expenses related to past due loans and nonperforming assets and losses on the sale of and valuation adjustments on other real estate owned. Sales of available for sale securities to adjust the composition of the Company’s investment portfolio during the first six months of 2013 generated gains of $525 thousand, a significant decrease from gains of $3.4 million during the first six months of 2012. The Company experienced a decrease in the amount of net charge-offs during the first six months of 2013 when compared to the same period in 2012, while the provision for loan losses during the first six months of 2013 was down approximately 71.1% from the same period of 2012. This was due to improvements in some of the Company’s credit quality metrics, including continued decreases in the level of past due loans and nonperforming assets, and other factors, which are reflective of slowly improving economic conditions. Although the amount of provision declined, the Company’s provision for loan losses remains elevated compared to historical levels as we continue to experience historically high levels of nonperforming assets and charge-offs and aim to maintain an appropriate allowance for potential future loan losses. The Company believes the investments it has made since 2010 to reduce nonperforming assets and enhance our internal monitoring systems will significantly enhance the long-term credit quality of our loan portfolio and properly position us to deliver stronger earnings as we move forward once the economic climate improves.
44
For the three months ended June 30, 2013, the following key points were significant factors in our reported results:
• | | Provision for loan losses of $600 thousand compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 2012. |
• | | Net charge-offs of $2.3 million to write off uncollectible balances on nonperforming assets. |
• | | Decrease in nonperforming assets by $4.6 million during the second quarter of 2013. |
• | | Gain on the sale of available for sale securities of $58 thousand resulting from adjustments in the composition of the investment portfolio as part of our overall asset/liability management strategy. |

Although the Company’s operating results improved slightly for the six months ended June 30, 2013, as compared to the same period of 2012, the Company’s performance still lags behind its strong earnings history. The Company remains unsatisfied with these financial results and continues to focus on credit quality initiatives. The Company believes that these initiatives, in combination with our 2013 Capital Initiative and related business strategies, will ultimately result in an improvement in our asset quality and allow the Company to focus greater resources on growing its franchise and delivering financial results more consistent with its long-term history. As detailed later in this Item 2 under the caption “Asset Quality”, the Company continues to work on the timely resolution of its nonperforming assets but expects that additional charge-offs are likely. However, the Company believes that the loan loss reserves set aside during the first six months of 2013 should be sufficient to cover its known credit issues under current economic conditions. Any further deterioration of economic conditions or credit quality could possibly require the adjustment of its provision for loan losses to reserve against additional charge-offs.
Capital Management and Written Agreement
As we first reported in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for March 31, 2011, the Company has taken actions to preserve capital by deferring its regular quarterly cash dividend with respect to its Series A Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) which the Company issued to the United States Department of Treasury in connection with the Company’s participation in the Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program in January 2009. On May 15, 2013, the Company deferred its tenth consecutive dividend on the preferred stock issued to the Treasury. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had accumulated $3.0 million for dividends on the preferred stock. The Company has notified the Treasury that it is deferring the August 15, 2013 dividend on the preferred stock. In addition, because dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have not been paid for more than six quarters, the authorized number of directors on the Company’s Board of Directors has increased by two, and the Treasury (or any future holders of the Series A Preferred Stock) has the right, voting as a class, to elect two directors to the Company’s Board of Directors at the next annual meeting (or a special meeting called for that purpose) and each annual meeting until all owed and unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have been paid. In April 2012, the Treasury assigned an observer to attend the Company’s board meetings, in part to determine whether and how to exercise this right, but to date the Treasury has not yet exercised this right to elect directors.
The Company anticipates that the Treasury may dispose of the Series A Preferred Stock through a public auction during the second half of 2013.
Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the Company is permitted to elect from time to time to defer regularly scheduled interest payments on its outstanding Junior Subordinated Debentures relating to its trust preferred securities. If the Company defers interest payments on the Junior Subordinated Debentures for more than 20 consecutive quarters, the Company would be in default under the governing agreements for such notes and the amount due under such agreements would be immediately due and payable. During the second quarter of 2011, the Company began deferring its regularly scheduled interest payments on its outstanding Junior Subordinated Debentures relating to its trust preferred securities. While the interest expense associated with this source of regulatory capital continues to be reflected in the Company’s earnings, the deferred payments represent a subordinated liability to other creditors of the Company. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has deferred nine quarterly payments totaling $798 thousand for interest on the Junior Subordinated Debentures.
The actions to suspend and defer dividend and interest payments to preserve capital, while difficult, are necessary to ensure the financial strength of the Company. Despite the Company’s significant challenges over the last several years, the Company has maintained its regulatory well capitalized status and it believes that maintaining this status is critically important for the long-term value of the Company. As economic conditions improve, and as the Company is able to generate earnings to support its current and future capital needs, the Company plans to restore dividends on its common stock and Series A and Series B Preferred Stock, as well as interest payments on its Junior Subordinated Debentures.
As previously disclosed, on February 17, 2011, the Company and the Bank entered into a Written Agreement with the Reserve Bank and the Bureau. The purpose of this agreement was to formally document the common goal of the Company, the Bank and the regulatory agencies to maintain the financial soundness of the Company and the Bank. This agreement contained many of the steps that the Company had already initiated during 2010 and 2011 to address its deteriorating asset quality and associated challenges brought on during the economic recession. The Written Agreement was terminated on July 30, 2013. The Company and the Bank anticipate entering into an informal memorandum of understanding with the Reserve Bank and the Bureau with terms to be determined.
46
The Company will continue to evaluate its capital management strategies during the remainder of 2013, including as related to executing the 2013 Capital Initiative and related strategic initiatives and deploying proceeds of the 2013 Capital Initiative.
Basel III Final Rules
In July 2013, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted rules to implement the Basel III capital framework and for calculating risk-weighted assets, as modified by the U.S. federal bank regulators (the “Basel III Capital Rules”). The Basel III Capital Rules are effective for the Company and the Bank on January 1, 2015 (subject to a phase-in period for certain portions of the new rules).
The Basel III Capital Rules, among other things, (i) introduce a new capital measure called “Common Equity Tier 1” (“CET1”), (ii) specify that Tier 1 capital consists of CET1 and “Additional Tier 1 Capital” instruments meeting specified requirements, (iii) define CET1 narrowly by requiring that most deductions/adjustments to regulatory capital measures be made to CET1 and not to the other components of capital and (iv) expand the scope of the deductions/adjustments from capital as compared to existing regulations, and particularly as applied to CET1.
Under the Basel III Capital Rules, the initial minimum capital and leverage ratios as of January 1, 2015 will be as follows: 4.5% CET1 to risk-weighted assets; 6.0% Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets; 8.0% Total capital to risk-weighted assets; and 4.0% Tier 1 capital to average assets.
In addition to raising minimum capital and leverage ratios, the Basel III Capital Rules also establish a capital conservation buffer that is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. The capital conservation buffer will be phased in from January 1, 2016 to January 1, 2019 in equal annual installments, and when fully implemented the capital conservation buffer will effectively add 2.5% to each of the minimum capital ratios. Banking institutions with a ratio of CET1 to risk-weighted assets above the minimum but below the capital conservation buffer will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases and compensation based on the amount of the shortfall.
With respect to the Bank, the Basel III Capital Rules also revise the “prompt corrective action” regulations pursuant to Section 38 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, by (i) introducing a CET1 ratio requirement at each level (other than critically undercapitalized), with the required CET1 ratio being 6.5% for well-capitalized status; (ii) increasing the minimum Tier 1 capital ratio requirement for each category, with the minimum Tier 1 capital ratio for well-capitalized status being 8% (as compared to the current 6%); and (iii) eliminating the current provision that provides that a bank with a composite supervisory rating of 1 may have a 3% leverage ratio and still be adequately capitalized. The Basel III Capital Rules do not change the total risk-based capital requirement for any prompt corrective action category.
The Basel III Capital Rules prescribe a standardized approach for risk weightings that expand the risk-weighting categories from the current four Basel I-derived categories (0%, 20%, 50% and 100%) to a much larger and more risk-sensitive number of categories, depending on the nature of the assets, generally ranging from 0% for U.S. government and agency securities, to 600% for certain equity exposures, and resulting in higher risk weights for a variety of asset categories. In particular, the Basel III Capital Rules increase risk weights that apply to past-due exposures and high volatility commercial real estate loans.
For a discussion of the risks posed by the Basel III Capital Rules, see Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Results of Operations
As discussed under the caption “Executive Overview” above, the Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 were primarily driven by the overall compression of its margins, as yields decreased on loans, the largest segment of earning assets, the elevated level of the provision for loan losses and FDIC insurance premiums over historical amounts, gains generated by sales of available for sale securities, professional and collection/repossession expenses related to past due loans and nonperforming assets, and losses on the sale of and valuation adjustments on other real estate owned. Credit quality continues to receive significant management attention to ensure that we continue to identify credit problems and improve the quality of our asset portfolio, with reduced levels of nonperforming assets from December 31, 2011 to June 30, 2013 demonstrating our positive asset quality progress. The Company remains diligent and focused on the management of our credit quality and is fully committed to quickly and aggressively addressing our problem credits. Additional analysis and breakout of
47
our nonperforming assets are presented later in this Item 2 under the caption “Asset Quality”. The remainder of this analysis discusses the results of operations under the component sections of net interest income and net interest margin, noninterest income, noninterest expense and income taxes.
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income, the fundamental source of the Company’s earnings, is defined as the difference between income on earning assets and the cost of funds supporting those assets. Significant categories of earning assets are loans and investment securities, while deposits and long-term borrowings represent the major portion of interest bearing liabilities. The level of net interest income is impacted primarily by variations in the volume and mix of these assets and liabilities, as well as changes in interest rates when compared to previous periods of operations and the yield of our interest earning assets compared to our cost of funding these assets.
Table 1 presents the average interest earning assets and average interest bearing liabilities, the average yields earned on such assets (on a tax equivalent basis) and rates paid on such liabilities, and the net interest margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
For comparative purposes, income from tax-exempt securities is adjusted to a tax-equivalent basis using the federal statutory tax rate of 34% and adjusted by the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act (“TEFRA”) adjustment. This latter adjustment is for the disallowance as a deduction of a portion of total interest expense related to the ratio of average tax-exempt securities to average total assets. By making these adjustments, tax-exempt income and their yields are presented on a comparable basis with income and yields from fully taxable earning assets. The net interest margin is calculated by expressing tax-equivalent net interest income as a percentage of average interest earning assets, and represents the Company’s net yield on its earning assets. Net interest margin is an indicator of the Company’s effectiveness in generating income from its earning assets. The net interest margin is affected by the structure of the balance sheet as well as by competitive pressures, Federal Reserve Board policies and the economy. The spread that can be earned between interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities is also dependent to a large extent on the slope of the yield curve, which in recent periods has been significantly impacted by initiatives of the Federal Reserve Board intended to depress long-term interest rates.
Net interest income, on a fully tax equivalent basis, decreased $125 thousand or 1.5% to $8.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, down from $8.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. Total average earning assets increased $24.9 million or 2.5% from $997.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $1.02 billion for the same period of 2013. Total average interest-bearing liabilities increased $4.7 million or 0.5% from $850.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $855.2 million for the same period of 2013. The decrease in net interest income was driven by the change in the mix and pricing of the balance sheet components including the impacts of declining loan balances, increased short term investments and decreasing yields on the Company’s loan portfolio, and partially offset by the Company’s expansion of its investment portfolio funded by excess liquidity and increasing yields on its investment portfolio driven by rebalancing efforts. The impact of these changes was partially offset by decreases to the cost of all categories of interest-bearing liabilities. These shifts resulted in a decrease of 14 basis points in our net interest margin from 3.35% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to 3.21% for the same period of 2013. The percentage of average earning assets to total average assets decreased slightly to 93.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2013, as compared to 93.6% for the same period of 2012.
Total interest income, on a fully tax equivalent basis, decreased $605 thousand from $11.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $10.7 million for the same period of 2013. This was driven by a decline in the yield on interest earning assets from 4.56% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to 4.20% for the same period of 2013, and partially offset by a slight increase in average earning assets over the same period. The decreased yield on earning assets was primarily the result of reduced yields on the loan portfolio, a significant decrease in average loan balances and a significant increase in short term investments.
Average total loan balances decreased $43.4 million from $717.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $674.5 million for the same period of 2013. The yield on loans decreased to 5.38% for the second quarter of 2013 compared to 5.56% for the same period of 2012. This resulted in an $867 thousand drop in interest income generated by our largest earning asset category from the prior year’s income level to $9.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 compared to $9.9 million for the same period of 2012. Interest income generated by the loan portfolio decreased due to weak loan demand in our markets as a result of the continuing challenging economic conditions, adjustments to our variable rate loans in the low interest rate environment, charge-offs, payment curtailments on outstanding loans and the sale of our credit card portfolio in September 2012. In addition, due to the historically low interest rate environment, although slightly rising in the latter portion of the second quarter of 2013, and intensified loan competition in our markets, loans are being originated at much lower yields which has contributed significantly to lower yields on the loan portfolio.
48
Average investment security balances increased $25.4 million from $263.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $289.2 million for the same period of 2013. The yield on securities increased 13 basis points from 2.10% for the second quarter of 2012 to 2.23% for the second quarter of 2013. The higher yield resulted from investment portfolio restructurings, accelerated prepayments on our Agency mortgage-backed and Agency CMO securities, principally due to the low rate environment and incentives for homeowners to refinance higher-rate mortgages, in the prior period compared to the current period, and our decision to invest in the second quarter of 2013 in higher yielding, longer duration municipal securities. Average taxable investment securities increased $11.4 million from the second quarter of 2012 to the second quarter of 2013 and the yield on taxable securities increased from 1.96% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to 2.04% for the same period of 2013, an increase of 8 basis points. Average tax exempt investment securities increased $14.7 million from the second quarter of 2012 to the second quarter of 2013 and the yield on tax exempt securities decreased from 4.59% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to 3.80% for the same period of 2013, a drop of 79 basis points.
In addition to deploying excess liquidity into the securities portfolio, we also deploy a portion of our excess funds into short term investments. Average interest bearing deposits in other banks increased $43.1 million from $15.7 million for the second quarter of 2012 to $58.8 million for the same period of 2013, and average federal funds sold decreased $329 thousand to $114 thousand during the second quarter of 2013 compared to $443 thousand for the same period of 2012. This increase in excess funds was due to the overall increase in our average deposits and difficulty strategically deploying excess liquidity (including proceeds from the Private Placements) in the low interest rate environment including difficulty funding new loans to creditworthy borrowers and identifying investment securities with suitable rates of return. In total, our average excess funds increased $42.8 million from the second quarter of 2012 to the second quarter of 2013.
Average interest bearing deposits increased $4.5 million from $719.5 million for the second quarter of 2012 to $724.0 million for the second quarter of 2013. Changes within the mix of these balances and the corresponding decrease in the rates on deposits were significant drivers for the reduction in interest expense in the second quarter of 2013 related to interest-bearing deposits and helped to partially offset the contemporaneous decrease in our interest income. Our overall cost of funds decreased $480 thousand from the second quarter of 2012 to the second quarter of 2013, as the total rate for average interest-bearing deposits fell from 0.95% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to 0.68% for the same period of 2013, a drop of 27 basis points. Retail deposits continued to shift from higher priced certificates of deposit to lower priced checking (or “NOW” accounts) and savings accounts. The largest increase from the second quarter of 2012 to the same period of 2013 was in our NOW accounts with an increase of $19.5 million in average balance and a corresponding rate decrease of 19 basis points from 0.57% to 0.38% from the second quarter of 2012 to the second quarter of 2013. Our savings deposits had an increase of $5.7 million in average balance and a corresponding rate decrease of 12 basis points from 0.30% to 0.18% for the same periods. Average large dollar certificates of deposit decreased $1.9 million from $131.8 million during the second quarter of 2012 to $129.9 million during the second quarter of 2013 and the rate dropped 41 basis points from 1.73% in the second quarter of 2012 to 1.32% for the same period of 2013. The average balance of other certificates of deposit declined $18.8 million from $148.3 million during the second quarter of 2012 to $129.5 million for the same period of 2013, with a simultaneous 41 basis point drop in rate from 1.61% in the second quarter of 2012 to 1.20% for the same period of 2013.
Net interest income, on a fully tax equivalent basis, decreased $651 thousand or 3.8% to $16.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, down from $16.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Total average earning assets increased $18.1 million or 1.8% from $999.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $1.02 billion for the same period of 2013. Total average interest-bearing liabilities increased $947 thousand or 0.1% from $854.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $855.6 million for the same period of 2013. The decrease in net interest income was driven by the change in the mix and pricing of the balance sheet components including the impact of declining loan balances, increased short term investments and decreasing yields on the Company’s loan portfolio and partially offset by the Company’s expansion of its investment portfolio funded by excess liquidity. The impact of these changes was partially offset by decreases to the cost of all categories of interest-bearing liabilities. These shifts resulted in a decrease of 18 basis points in our net interest margin from 3.40% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to 3.22% for the same period of 2013. The percentage of average earning assets to total average assets decreased slightly to 93.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2013, as compared to 93.6% for the same period of 2012.
Total interest income, on a fully tax equivalent basis, decreased $1.7 million from $23.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $21.3 million for the same period of 2013. This was driven by a decline in the yield on interest earning assets from 4.63% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to 4.22% for the same period of 2013, and partially offset by a increase in average earning assets over the same period. The decreased yield on earning assets was primarily the result of reduced yields on the loan portfolio, a significant decrease in average loan balances and a significant increase in short term investments.
49
Average total loan balances decreased $49.7 million from $724.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $674.3 million for the same period of 2013. The yield on loans decreased to 5.39% for the first six months of 2013 compared to 5.58% for the same period of 2012. This resulted in a $2.1 million drop in interest income generated by our largest earning asset category from the prior year’s income level to $18.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $20.1 million for the same period of 2012. Interest income generated by the loan portfolio decreased due to weak loan demand in our markets as a result of the continuing challenging economic conditions, adjustments to our variable rate loans in the low interest rate environment, charge-offs, payment curtailments on outstanding loans and the sale of our credit card portfolio in September 2012.
Average investment security balances increased $33.1 million from $255.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $288.6 million for the same period of 2013. While the average investment securities balance increased, the yield on securities remained constant at 2.27% for the first six months of 2013 and 2012. Average taxable investment securities increased $42.0 million from the first six months of 2012 to the first six months of 2013 and the yield on taxable securities increased from 1.95% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to 2.10% for the same period of 2013, an increase of 15 basis points. Average tax exempt investment securities decreased $8.3 million from the first six months of 2012 to the first six months of 2013 and the yield on tax exempt securities decreased from 4.52% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to 3.86% for the same period of 2013, a drop of 66 basis points.
Average interest bearing deposits in other banks increased $34.8 million from $19.7 million for the first six months of 2012 to $54.5 million for the same period of 2013, while average federal funds sold decreased $78 thousand to $234 thousand during the first six months of 2013 compared to $312 thousand for the same period of 2012. This increase in excess funds was due to the difficulty in the low rate environment of strategically deploying excess liquidity (including proceeds from the Private Placements) including difficulty funding new loans to creditworthy borrowers and identifying investment securities with suitable rates of return. In total, our excess funds increased $34.7 million from the first six months of 2012 to the first six months of 2013.
Average interest bearing deposits increased $580 thousand from $723.9 million for the first six months of 2012 to $724.5 million for the first six months of 2013. Changes within the mix of these balances and the corresponding decrease in the rates on deposits were significant drivers for the reduction in interest expense in the first six months of 2013 related to interest-bearing deposits and helped to partially offset the contemporaneous decrease in our interest income. Our overall cost of funds decreased $1.0 million from the first six months of 2012 to the same period of 2013, as the total rate for average interest-bearing deposits fell from 0.98% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 to 0.70% for the same period of 2013, a drop of 28 basis points. Retail deposits continued to shift from higher priced certificates of deposit to lower priced NOW and savings accounts. The largest increase from the first six months of 2012 to the same period of 2013 was in our NOW accounts with an increase of $21.1 million in average balance and a corresponding rate decrease of 18 basis points from 0.57% to 0.39% from the first six months of 2012 to the same period of 2013. Our savings deposits had an increase of $5.3 million in average balance and a corresponding rate decrease of 12 basis points from 0.30% to 0.18% for the same periods. Our average money market savings accounts had a decrease of $1.6 million and a corresponding rate decrease of 9 basis points from 0.53% to 0.44% for the same periods. Average large dollar certificates of deposit decreased $5.2 million from $133.5 million during the first six months of 2012 to $128.3 million during the first six months of 2013 and the rate dropped 42 basis points from 1.77% in the first six months of 2012 to 1.35% for the same period of 2013. The average balance of other certificates of deposit declined $19.0 million from $150.3 million during the first six months of 2012 to $131.3 million for the same period of 2013, with a simultaneous 41 basis point drop in rate from 1.65% in the first six months of 2012 to 1.24% for the same period of 2013.

Noninterest Income
Noninterest income is comprised of all sources of income other than interest income on our earning assets. Significant revenue items include fees collected on certain deposit account transactions, debit and credit card fees, other general services, earnings from other investments we own in part or in full, gains or losses from investments, and gains or losses on sales of investments, loans, and fixed assets.

Noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $1.5 million, a decrease of $732 thousand or 33.5% over the noninterest income of $2.2 million for the same period of 2012. The decrease in this component was caused by the following events:
• | | Sales of available for sale securities generated net gains of $58 thousand for the second quarter of 2013, a decrease of $774 thousand or 93.0% from net gains of $832 thousand for the second quarter of 2012. During the first quarter and continuing into the second quarter of 2012 the Company began to strategically adjust the composition of its investment portfolio by reducing its holdings of tax-exempt securities in an effort to increase the Company’s source of taxable income. To implement this strategy the Company sold tax-exempt securities issued by state and political subdivisions during the second quarter of 2012, many of which were in an unrealized gain position at the time of sale, and deployed the proceeds into taxable investment securities issued by state and political subdivisions as well as Agency mortgage-backed and Agency CMO securities. Many of these securities were in an unrealized gain position at the time of sale due to the low interest rate environment during the first half of 2012, which was principally due to economic conditions and monetary policies of the Federal Reserve to further reduce interest rates. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company continued to adjust the composition of its investment portfolio and will continue to strategically evaluate opportunities to further adjust the composition of its investment portfolio through the balance of 2013; |
• | | Service charges and fees on deposit accounts were $729 thousand for the second quarter of 2013, a decrease of $61 thousand or 7.7% from $790 thousand for the second quarter of 2012, and were driven by a 7.2% decrease in non-sufficient funds (or “NSF”) fees; and |
• | | Other operating income was $263 thousand for the second quarter of 2013, an increase of $64 thousand or 32.2% over the $199 thousand for the second quarter of 2012, and was driven by a 46.4% increase in investment services income, a 47.4% increase in income from bank owned life insurance due to our additional $10.0 million investment in the second quarter of 2013, and partially offset by a 10.6% increase in write downs of our investments in community and housing development funds. |
53
Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $3.4 million, a decrease of $2.7 million or 44.2% over the noninterest income of $6.1 million for the same period of 2012. The decrease in this component was caused by the following events:
• | | Sales of available for sale securities generated net gains of $525 thousand in the first six months of 2013, a decrease of $2.8 million or 84.4% from net gains of $3.4 million for the first six months of 2012. As discussed above, during the first six months of 2012 the Company began to strategically adjust the composition of its investment portfolio by reducing its holdings of tax-exempt securities in an effort to increase the Company’s source of taxable income. To implement this strategy the Company sold tax-exempt securities issued by state and political subdivisions during the first six months of 2012, many of which were in an unrealized gain position at the time of sale, and deployed the proceeds into taxable investment securities issued by state and political subdivisions as well as Agency mortgage-backed and Agency CMO securities. Many of these securities were in an unrealized gain position at the time of sale due to the low interest rate environment during the first half of 2012, which was principally due to economic conditions and monetary policies of the Federal Reserve to further reduce interest rates. During the first six months of 2013, the Company continued to adjust the composition of its investment portfolio and will continue to strategically evaluate opportunities to further adjust the composition of its investment portfolio through the balance of 2013; |
• | | Service charges and fees on deposit accounts were $1.5 million for the first six months of 2013, a decrease of $64 thousand or 4.1% from $1.6 million for the first six months of 2012, and were driven by a 5.2% decrease in NSF fees; and |
• | | Other operating income was $644 thousand for the first six months of 2013, an increase of $157 thousand or 32.2% from $487 thousand for the first six months of 2012, and was driven by a 66.7% increase in investment services income, a 24.8% increase in income from bank owned life insurance due to our additional $10.0 million investment in the second quarter of 2013 and a 124.6% increase in income from sales of insurance products through the Company’s insurance subsidiary. |

Noninterest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $8.2 million, an increase of $81 thousand or 1.0% over the noninterest expense of $8.1 million for the same period of 2012. The increase in this component was caused by the following events:
• | | Salaries and employee benefits were $4.1 million for the second quarter of 2013, an increase of $332 thousand or 8.7% from $3.8 million for the same period of 2012. This increase was due to annual merit increases, lower deferred compensation on loan originations and an increase in group term insurance costs; |
• | | Collection, repossession and other real estate owned expenses were $126 thousand for the second quarter of 2013, a decrease of $224 thousand or 64.0% from $350 thousand for the same period of 2012. The decrease in these expenses was due to the overall decrease in the carrying balance of OREO as well as the amount of nonperforming loans and classified assets; |
• | | Marketing and advertising expenses were $246 thousand for the second quarter of 2013, an increase of $67 thousand or 37.4% from $179 thousand for the same period of 2012. This increase was primarily due to the Company engaging in increased media advertising during the second quarter of 2013 compared to the second quarter of 2012; |
• | | Losses on the sale of other real estate owned were $118 thousand for the second quarter of 2013, an increase of $74 thousand or 168.2% from losses of $44 thousand for the same period of 2012; and |
• | | Impairment losses related to valuation adjustments on OREO were $133 thousand for the second quarter of 2013, a decrease of $159 thousand from losses of $292 thousand for the same period of 2012, as OREO balances have declined during 2013 and real estate prices in our markets have continued to stabilize in the second quarter of 2013. |
Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $16.2 million, a decrease of $514 thousand or 3.1% over the noninterest expense of $16.7 million for the same period of 2012. The decrease in this component was caused by the following events:
• | | Salaries and employee benefits were $8.3 million for the first six months of 2013, an increase of $581 thousand or 7.5% from $7.7 million for the first six months of 2012 and were due to the factors mentioned in the quarterly analysis above; |
• | | Collection, repossession and other real estate owned expenses were $252 thousand for the first six months of 2013, a decrease of $403 thousand or 61.5% from $655 thousand for the first six months of 2012 and was due to the factors mentioned in the quarterly analysis above; |
• | | Losses on the sale of other real estate owned were $155 thousand for the first six months of 2013, an increase of $38 thousand or 32.5% from losses of $117 thousand for the same period of 2012; and |
• | | Impairment losses related to valuation adjustments on OREO were $143 thousand for the first six months of 2013, a decrease of $764 thousand or 84.2% from losses of $907 thousand for the same period of 2012, as the Company aggressively addressed other real estate owned as part of its overall credit quality initiative during the first six months of 2012, resulting in significant impairments on certain assets within the Company’s other real estate owned portfolio during the first half of 2012. |
In connection with the termination of the Written Agreement, the Company anticipates that future FDIC assessments will be lower than assessment levels in recent periods, which will contribute to reducing the Company’s level of noninterest expense in future periods.

Income Taxes
The Company recorded income tax expense of $100 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to an income tax expense of $243 thousand for the same period of 2012, reflecting a $143 thousand decrease in income tax expense. The decrease in income tax expense from the second quarter of 2012 to the same period of 2013 was primarily the result of the Company’s pretax income decreasing by approximately $318 thousand and an increase in the amount of tax-exempt income on investment securities during the second quarter of 2013 as the Company had rebalanced its securities portfolio during the quarter.
The Company recorded income tax expense of $449 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to an income tax expense of $335 thousand for the same period in 2012, reflecting a $114 thousand increase in income tax expense. The increase in income tax expense from the first six months of 2012 to the same period of 2013 was primarily the result of the Company’s pretax income increasing by approximately $205 thousand and a reduction in the amount of tax-exempt income on investment securities as the Company had rebalanced its securities portfolio during the first half of 2012.
Asset Quality
Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is a reserve for estimated credit losses on individually evaluated loans determined to be impaired as well as estimated credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio, and is based on periodic evaluations of the collectability and historical loss experience of loans. A provision for loan losses, which is a charge against earnings, is recorded to bring the allowance for loan losses to a level that, in management’s judgment, is appropriate to absorb probable losses in the loan portfolio. Actual credit losses are deducted from the allowance for loan losses for the difference between the carrying value of the loan and the estimated net realizable value or fair value of the collateral, if collateral dependent. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance for loan losses.
The allowance for loan losses is comprised of a specific allowance for identified problem loans and a general allowance representing estimations done pursuant to either FASB ASC Topic 450 “Accounting for Contingencies”, or FASB ASC Topic 310“Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan.”The specific component relates to loans that are classified as impaired, and is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. For collateral dependent loans, an updated appraisal will be ordered if a current one is not on file. Appraisals are performed by independent third-party appraisers with relevant industry experience. Adjustments to the appraised value may be made based on recent sales of like properties or general market conditions when deemed appropriate. The general component covers non-classified or performing loans and those loans classified as substandard, doubtful or loss that are not impaired. The general component is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors, such as economic conditions, interest rates and unemployment rates. The Company uses a risk grading system for real estate (including multifamily residential, construction, farmland and non-farm, non-residential) and commercial loans. Loans are graded on a scale from 1 to 9. Non-impaired real estate and commercial loans are assigned an allowance factor which increases with the severity of risk grading. A general description of the characteristics of the risk grades is as follows:
Pass Grades
• | | Risk Grade 1 loans have little or no risk and are generally secured by cash or cash equivalents; |
• | | Risk Grade 2 loans have minimal risk to well qualified borrowers and no significant questions as to safety; |
• | | Risk Grade 3 loans are satisfactory loans with strong borrowers and secondary sources of repayment; |
• | | Risk Grade 4 loans are satisfactory loans with borrowers not as strong as risk grade 3 loans but may exhibit a higher degree of financial risk based on the type of business supporting the loan; and |
• | | Risk Grade 5 loans are loans that warrant more than the normal level of supervision and have the possibility of an event occurring that may weaken the borrower’s ability to repay. |
Special Mention
• | | Risk Grade 6 loans have increasing potential weaknesses beyond those at which the loan originally was granted and if not addressed could lead to inadequately protecting the Company’s credit position. |
56
Classified Grades
• | | Risk Grade 7 loans are substandard loans and are inadequately protected by the current sound worth or paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged. These have well defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt with the distinct possibility the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected; |
• | | Risk Grade 8 loans are doubtful of collection and the possibility of loss is high but pending specific borrower plans for recovery, its classification as a loss is deferred until its more exact status is determined; and |
• | | Risk Grade 9 loans are loss loans which are considered uncollectable and of such little value that their continuance as a bank asset is not warranted. |
The Company uses a past due grading system for consumer loans, including one to four family residential first and seconds and home equity lines. The past due status of a loan is based on the contractual due date of the most delinquent payment due. The past due grading of consumer loans is based on the following categories: current, 1-29 days past due, 30-59 days past due, 60-89 days past due and over 90 days past due. The consumer loans are segregated between performing and nonperforming loans. Performing loans are those that have made timely payments in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement and are not past due 90 days or more. Nonperforming loans are those that do not accrue interest or are greater than 90 days past due and accruing interest. Non-impaired consumer loans are assigned an allowance factor which increases with the severity of past due status. This 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 loan portfolio.
The Company’s ALL Committee is responsible for assessing the overall appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses and monitoring the Company’s allowance for loan losses methodology, particularly in the context of current economic conditions and a rapidly changing regulatory environment. The ALL Committee meets at least annually to review the Company’s allowance for loan losses methodology.
The allocation methodology applied by the Company includes management’s ongoing review and grading of the loan portfolio into criticized loan categories (defined as specific loans warranting either specific allocation, or a classified status of substandard, doubtful or loss). The allocation methodology focuses on evaluation of several factors, including but not limited to: evaluation of facts and issues related to specific loans, management’s ongoing review and grading of the loan portfolio, consideration of historical loan loss experience using a rolling three year average and delinquency experience on each portfolio category, trends in past due and nonaccrual loans, the level of classified loans, the risk characteristics of the various classifications of loans, changes in the size and character of the loan portfolio, concentrations of loans to specific borrowers or industries, existing economic conditions, the fair value of underlying collateral, and other qualitative and quantitative factors which could affect potential credit losses. Because each of the criteria used is subject to change, the allocation of the allowance for loan losses is made for analytical purposes and is not necessarily indicative of the trend of future loan losses in any particular loan category. The total allowance is available to absorb losses from any segment of the portfolio. In determining the allowance for loan losses, the Company considers its portfolio segments and loan classes to be the same.
Management believes that the level of the allowance for loan losses is appropriate in light of the credit quality and anticipated risk of loss in the loan portfolio. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance for loan losses may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance for loan losses through increased provisions for loan losses or may require that certain loan balances be charged-off or downgraded into classified loan categories when their credit evaluations differ from those of management based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examinations.

As a result of the challenges continuing to face the economy and the real estate and financial markets today, the Company made provisions for loan losses of $600 thousand and $1.2 million, respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, as compared to $1.3 million and $4.2 million, respectively for the same periods of 2012. Net charge-offs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 were $2.3 million and $3.7 million, respectively as compared to $1.5 million and $5.4 million, respectively for the same three and six month periods of 2012. This represents, on an annualized basis, 1.36% and 1.11% of average loans outstanding for the three and six months ending June 30, 2013 and 0.86% and 1.50% of average loans outstanding for the same periods of 2012. The contribution to the provision in the first six months of 2013 and 2012 was made in response to sustained credit quality issues in our loan portfolio as well as current market conditions, both nationally and in our markets, all of which indicate that credit quality issues may continue to adversely impact our loan portfolio and our earnings in future periods.
Net charge-offs decreased $1.7 million, or 31.3%, from the six months ended June 30, 2012 to the same period of 2013 due to improvements in some of the Company’s credit quality metrics, including continued decreases in the level of past due loans and nonperforming assets, and other factors, which are reflective of slowly improving economic conditions. However, net charge-offs remain elevated when compared to historical levels as the Company has aggressively focused on credit quality initiatives to improve its asset quality and resolve nonperforming assets.
The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2013 was $17.8 million, compared with $20.3 million at December 31, 2012. This represented 2.66% of period end loans at June 30, 2013, compared with 2.97% of year end loans at December 31, 2012.
The following table shows the allocation of the allowance for loan losses at the dates indicated. Notwithstanding these allocations, the entire allowance for loan losses is available to absorb charge-offs in any category of loan.

Tabular presentations of commercial loans by credit quality indicator and consumer loans, including one to four family residential first and seconds and home equity lines, by payment activity at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 can be found under Item 1. “Financial Statements,” under the heading “Note 3. Loan Portfolio.”
Nonperforming Assets
The past due status of a loan is based on the contractual due date of the most delinquent payment due. Loans, including impaired loans, are generally classified as nonaccrual if they are past due as to maturity or payment of principal or interest for a period of more than 90 days, unless such loans are well-secured and in the process of collection. Loans greater than 90 days past due may remain on an accrual status if management determines it has adequate collateral to cover the principal and interest. If a loan or a portion of a loan is adversely classified, or is partially charged off, the loan is generally classified as nonaccrual. Additionally,
59
whenever management becomes aware of facts or circumstances that may adversely impact the collectability of principal or interest on loans, it is management’s practice to place such loans on a nonaccrual status immediately, rather than delaying such action until the loans become 90 days past due. As of June 30, 2013, management is not aware of any potential problem loans to place immediately on nonaccrual status.
When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, previously accrued and uncollected interest is reversed, and the amortization of related deferred loan fees or costs is suspended. While a loan is classified as nonaccrual and the future collectability of the recorded loan balance is doubtful, collections of interest and principal are generally applied as a reduction to principal outstanding. When the future collectability of the recorded loan balance is expected, interest income may be recognized on a cash basis. In the case where a nonaccrual loan has been partially charged off, recognition of interest on a cash basis is limited to that which would have been recognized on the recorded loan balance at the contractual interest rate. Cash interest receipts in excess of that amount are recorded as recoveries to the allowance for loan losses until prior charge-offs have been fully recovered. These policies are applied consistently across our loan portfolio.
Loans may be returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due (including arrearages) are reasonably assured of repayment within an acceptable period of time, and there is a sustained period of repayment performance by the borrower, in accordance with the contractual terms of interest and principal.
Real estate acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure is held for sale and is stated at the lower of cost or estimated fair market value of the property, less estimated disposal costs, if any. Cost includes loan principal and accrued interest. Any excess of cost over the estimated fair market value less costs to sell at the time of acquisition is charged to the allowance for loan losses. The estimated fair market value is reviewed periodically by management and any write-downs are charged against current earnings. Development and improvement costs relating to property are capitalized. Net operating income or expenses of such properties are included in collection, repossession and other real estate owned expenses.

Nonperforming assets were $9.7 million or 1.44% of total loans and other real estate owned at June 30, 2013 compared to $16.6 million or 2.41% at December 31, 2012. Although nonperforming assets began to trend downward during 2011, continued this trend throughout 2012 and decreased by $6.9 million during the first six months of 2013, this number increased from 2007 through 2010 as a result of the continued challenging economic conditions which has significantly increased unemployment, reduced profitability of local businesses, and reduced the ability of many of our customers to keep their loans current. The sluggish economic recovery and continuing asset quality issues in the Company’s loan portfolio have prompted the Company to maintain the heightened level of the allowance for loan losses as compared to historical levels, which is 250.84% of nonaccrual loans at June 30, 2013, compared to 171.29% at December 31, 2012. Nonperforming loans decreased $4.8 million or 40.1% during the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $7.1 million, with $4.2 million of this decline occurring in the second quarter of 2013.
Nonaccrual loans were $7.1 million at June 30, 2013, a decrease of $4.8 million or 40.1% from $11.9 million at December 31, 2012. Of the current $7.1 million in nonaccrual loans, $6.7 million or 94.8% is secured by real estate in our market area. Of these real estate secured loans, $4.4 million are residential real estate, $974 thousand are real estate construction, $185 thousand are farmland, and $1.1 million are commercial properties.
As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were no loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest.
Other real estate owned, net of valuation allowance at June 30, 2013 was $2.6 million, a decrease of $2.1 million or 45.4% from $4.7 million at December 31, 2012. The balance at June 30, 2013 was comprised of 11 properties of which $847 thousand are residential real estate and $1.7 million are real estate construction properties. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, new foreclosures included ten properties totaling $1.1 million transferred from loans. Sales of fourteen other real estate owned
61
properties for the six months ended June 30, 2013 resulted in a net loss of $155 thousand. At June 30, 2013, there were two properties totaling $94 thousand under contract for sale. Subsequent to June 30, 2013, one of the properties under contract for sale at June 30, 2013 sold resulting in a net gain of approximately $1 thousand that will be recognized in the third quarter of 2013. The remaining properties are being actively marketed and the Company does not anticipate any material losses associated with these properties. The Company recorded losses of $143 thousand in its consolidated statement of income for the six months ended June 30, 2013, due to valuation adjustments on other real estate owned properties as compared to $907 thousand for the same period of 2012. Asset quality continues to be a top priority for the Company. The Company continues to allocate significant resources to the expedient disposition and collection of nonperforming and other lower quality assets, as demonstrated by the $4.6 million, or 64.1%, decrease in other real estate owned from June 30, 2012 to June 30, 2013. For more information on asset disposition strategies related to our 2013 Capital Initiative, see “2013 Capital Initiative and Strategic Initiatives” in this Item 2.
As discussed earlier in this Item 2, the Company measures impaired loans based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate of the loan or, as a practical expedient, at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. The Company maintains a valuation allowance to the extent that the measure of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment. TDRs are considered impaired loans. TDRs occur when we agree to modify the original terms of a loan by granting a concession due to the deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower. These concessions can be temporary and are made in an attempt to avoid foreclosure and with the intent to restore the loan to a performing status once sufficient payment history can be demonstrated. These concessions could include, without limitation, rate reductions to below market rates, payment deferrals, forbearance, and, in some cases, forgiveness of principal or interest.
A tabular presentation of loans individually evaluated for impairment by class of loans at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 can be found under Item 1. “Financial Statements,” under the heading “Note 3. Loan Portfolio.”
At June 30, 2013, the balance of impaired loans was $40.8 million, for which there were specific valuation allowances of $4.3 million. At December 31, 2012, the balance of impaired loans was $41.7 million, for which there were specific valuation allowances of $5.2 million. The average balance of impaired loans was $43.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $48.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The Company’s impaired loans have declined when comparing the June 30, 2013 period to the December 31, 2012 period, but impaired loans remain elevated since 2008 as a result of the continued challenging economic conditions which have significantly increased unemployment, reduced profitability of local businesses, and reduced the ability of many of our customers to keep their loans current.
The following table presents the balances of TDRs at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

| | | | | | | | |
* | Included in nonaccrual loans in Table 6: Nonperforming Assets . |
At the time of a TDR, the loan is placed on nonaccrual status. A loan may be returned to accrual status if the borrower has demonstrated a sustained period of repayment performance (typically six months) in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan and there is reasonable assurance the borrower will continue to make payments as agreed.
Financial Condition
Summary
At June 30, 2013, the Company had total assets of $1.1 billion, an increase of $40.3 million or 3.7% from $1.1 billion at December 31, 2012. The increase in total assets was principally the result of increases in interest bearing deposits with banks, deposits, borrowings and total shareholders’ equity (primarily attributable to the closing of the private placements during the second quarter of 2013), and partially offset by decreases in cash and short-term investments, securities available for sale and loans as detailed in the following schedule.

Investment Securities
The investment portfolio plays a primary role in the management of the Company’s interest rate sensitivity. In addition, the portfolio serves as a source of liquidity and is used as needed to meet collateral requirements, such as those related to secure public deposits, balances with the Federal Reserve Bank and repurchase agreements. The investment portfolio entirely consists of securities available for sale, which may be sold in response to changes in market interest rates, changes in prepayment risk, increases in loan demand, general liquidity needs and other similar factors. These securities are carried at estimated fair value. Total investment securities were $275.8 million at June 30, 2013, reflecting a decrease of $1.1 million or 0.4% from $276.9 million at December 31, 2012. The valuation allowance for the available for sale portfolio had an unrealized (loss), net of tax benefit, of $(4.6) million at June 30, 2013 compared with an unrealized gain, net of tax expense, of $1.9 million at December 31, 2012. These unrealized (losses) as of June 30, 2013 are principally due to current financial market conditions for these types of investments particularly changes in interest rates which rose between December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2013 causing bond prices to decline.
The slight decrease in the investment portfolio during the first six months of 2013 was the result of mark-to-market adjustments related to increases to the mid to long term interest rate curve, primarily late in the second quarter of 2013. Unrealized losses on investment securities were $7.0 million at June 30, 2013, compared to unrealized gains of $2.9 million at December 31, 2012. Management continues to restructure the composition of our securities portfolio to strategically deploy excess cash into investment securities as investment opportunities are available; due to a lack of suitable investment opportunities, a portion of our excess funding remains in lower yielding interest bearing deposits with banks. In the first six months of 2013, management continued to allocate a greater portion of the investment portfolio to SBA Pool securities. The SBA Pool securities are modified mortgage pass-through securities that are assembled using the guaranteed portion of SBA loans and as such are unconditionally guaranteed as to principal and accrued interest by the U.S. government. Management continues to invest in these SBA Pool securities because they qualify under current risk-weighting regulations as 0% risk weighted assets, which more efficiently uses capital to produce a reasonable rate of return. Approximately 25.4% of the SBA Pool securities are adjustable rate products which will assist the Company with mitigating interest rate risk. In addition, for liquidity planning purposes, these securities provide an investment that may be pledged as collateral to secure public deposits, balances with the Federal Reserve Bank and repurchase agreements. During the second quarter of 2013, management purchased additional investment securities issued by state and political subdivisions, as these securities offered a higher yield over a longer duration than other investment opportunities available in the second quarter. As part of our overall asset/liability management strategy, we are targeting our investment portfolio to be approximately 20% of our total assets. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, our investment portfolio was 24.7% and 25.8%, respectively, of total assets.
Loans
The Company offers an array of lending and credit services to customers including mortgage, commercial and consumer loans. A substantial portion of the loan portfolio is represented by commercial and residential mortgage loans in our market area. The ability of our debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the real estate and general economic conditions in our market
63
area. The loan portfolio is the largest component of earning assets and accounts for the greatest portion of total interest income. Total loans were $671.4 million at June 30, 2013, a decrease of $13.3 million or 1.9% from $684.7 million at December 31, 2012. As previously mentioned our loan portfolio continues to decrease as a result of weak loan demand, additional charge-offs and payment curtailments on outstanding credits.
Deposits
The Company’s predominant source of funds is depository accounts. The Company’s deposit base, which is provided by individuals and businesses located within the communities served, is comprised of demand deposits, savings and money market accounts, and time deposits. The Company augments its deposit base through conservative use of brokered deposits, including through the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service program (“CDARS”). The Company’s balance sheet growth is largely determined by the availability of deposits in its markets, the cost of attracting the deposits and the prospects of profitably utilizing the available deposits by increasing the loan or investment portfolios.
Total deposits were $842.3 million as of June 30, 2013, an increase of $3.9 million or 0.5% from $838.4 million as of December 31, 2012. The following table sets forth the composition of the Company’s deposits at the dates indicated.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
(dollars in thousands) | | June 30, 2013 | | | December 31, 2012 | | | Change $ | | | Change % | |
Noninterest-bearing deposits | | $ | 127,387 | | | $ | 116,717 | | | $ | 10,670 | | | | 9.1 | % |

Savings deposits | | | 91,226 | | | | 86,868 | | | | 4,358 | | | | 5.0 | % |
Time deposits | | | 253,568 | | | | 260,517 | | | | (6,949 | ) | | | -2.7 | % |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Total interest-bearing deposits | | $ | 714,884 | | | $ | 721,656 | | | $ | (6,772 | ) | | | -0.9 | % |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
During the first six months of 2013, the Company continued to see a shift from interest-bearing retail time deposits to lower cost non-maturity interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing retail deposits as our consumers are willing to forego the higher yield on longer-term products in order to have more readily available access to their funds. The Company believes the overall increase in total deposits, which occurred in our noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing demand and savings deposits, with the largest increases coming in our noninterest-bearing demand and interest-bearing savings, during the six months ended June 30, 2013, is primarily the result of customers seeking the liquidity and safety of deposit accounts in light of the weak economic recovery in our markets and continuing economic uncertainty in general. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had $32.5 million and $28.6 million in broker certificates of deposits. The interest rates paid on these deposits are consistent, if not lower, than the market rates offered in our local area. Amounts included in these broker certificates of deposits also include deposits under the CDARS program.
The Company has observed its customers, including counties and municipalities, maintaining significant liquid cash reserves in order to deleverage and prevent operating shortfalls. While the Company believes that it offers competitive interest rates on all deposit products, the continued weak loan demand, coupled with our ongoing deposit re-pricing strategy, have allowed for some deposit attrition particularly from depositors seeking higher yields at our competitors or from other investment vehicles.
Borrowings
The Company’s ability to borrow funds through non-deposit sources provides additional flexibility in meeting the liquidity needs of customers while enhancing its cost of funds structure. Total borrowings were $131.1 million at June 30, 2013, an increase of $389 thousand or 0.3% from $130.8 million at December 31, 2012. The slight increase in borrowings was due to an increase in customer repurchase agreements during the first six months of 2013.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2013, there have been no material changes to the off-balance sheet arrangements disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Contractual Obligations
As of June 30, 2013, there have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business to the contractual obligations disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Liquidity
Liquidity represents an institution’s ability to meet present and future financial obligations, including through the sale of existing assets or the acquisition of additional funds through short-term borrowings. Our liquidity is provided from cash and due from banks, interest bearing deposits with other banks, federal funds sold, repayments from loans, sales of loans, increases in deposits, lines of credit from the FHLB and three correspondent banks, sales of investments, interest and dividend payments received from investments and maturing investments. Our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity may be affected by numerous factors, including economic conditions nationally and in our markets. Depending on our liquidity levels, our capital position, conditions in the capital markets and other factors, we may from time to time consider the issuance of debt, equity or other securities, or other possible capital market transactions, the proceeds of which could provide additional liquidity for operations.
On June 12, 2013, the Company closed on its previously discussed Private Placements that contributed gross proceeds of approximately $45.0 million to our liquidity. As mentioned under Item 1. “Financial Statements,” under the heading “Note 16. Subsequent Events,” on July 1, 2013, the Company announced the expiration as of 5:00pm on June 28, 2013 of the subscription period for its previously announced $5.0 million Rights Offering. The Rights Offering resulted in an oversubscription and, as a result, on July 5, 2013, the Company received from its Rights Offering gross proceeds of approximately $5.0 million which will contribute to our liquidity in the third quarter of 2013. The Company expects to deploy a significant portion of these proceeds to execute the related business initiatives. For more information on our 2013 Capital Initiative, see “2013 Capital Initiative and Strategic Initiatives” in this Item 2.
As a result of our management of liquid assets and our ability to generate liquidity through liability funding, we believe that we maintain overall liquidity to satisfy our depositors’ requirements and to meet customers’ credit needs. We also take into account any liquidity needs generated by off-balance sheet transactions such as commitments to extend credit, commitments to purchase securities and standby letters of credit.
We monitor and plan our liquidity position for future periods. Liquidity strategies are implemented and monitored by our Asset/Liability Committee (“ALCO”).
Cash, cash equivalents and federal funds sold totaled $88.4 million as of June 30, 2013 compared to $46.6 million as of December 31, 2012. At June 30, 2013, cash, cash equivalents, federal funds sold and unpledged securities available for sale were $296.6 million or 26.6% of total assets, compared to $217.7 million or 20.2% of total assets at December 31, 2012.
As disclosed in the Company’s consolidated statement of cash flows, net cash provided by operating activities was $6.8 million, net cash used in investing activities was $9.5 million and net cash provided by financing activities was $44.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Combined, this contributed to a $41.8 million increase in cash and cash equivalents for the six months ended June 30, 2013.
The Company maintains access to short-term funding sources as well, including federal funds lines of credit with three correspondent banks up to $40.0 million and the ability to borrow from the FHLB up to $182.2 million. The Company has no reason to believe these arrangements will not be renewed at maturity. Additional loans and securities are available that can be pledged as collateral for future borrowings from the FHLB above the current lendable collateral value.
Certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more, maturing in one year or less, totaled $64.8 million at June 30, 2013. Certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more, maturing in more than one year, totaled $66.0 million at June 30, 2013.
65
As of June 30, 2013, and other than referenced in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company was not aware of any other known trends, events or uncertainties that have or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our liquidity. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has no material commitments or long-term debt for capital expenditures.
Capital Resources
The assessment of capital adequacy depends on such factors as asset quality, liquidity, earnings performance, and changing competitive conditions and economic forces. The Company regularly reviews the adequacy of the Company’s capital. The Company maintains a capital structure that it believes will assure an adequate level of capital to support anticipated asset growth and to absorb potential losses.
The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, banks must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components (such as interest rate risk), risk weighting, and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require that the Bank maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of June 30, 2013, the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.
As of June 30, 2013, the Bank was categorized as “well capitalized,” the highest level of capital adequacy. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios. The Company’s and the Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 are presented under Item 1. “Financial Statements,” under the heading “Note 13. Capital Requirements.”
On February 17, 2011, the Company entered into a Written Agreement with the Reserve Bank and the Bureau. The Written Agreement was terminated on July 30, 2013. Under the terms of this Written Agreement, the Parent and the Bank were subject to additional limitations and regulatory restrictions and could not declare or pay dividends to its shareholders (including payments by the Parent on its trust preferred securities) and could not purchase or redeem shares of its stock without prior regulatory approval. Additional information about the Written Agreement can be found under Item 1. “Financial Statements,” under the heading “Note 14. Formal Written Agreement” and under “Executive Overview” of this Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
In July 2013, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted rules to implement the Basel III capital framework and for calculating risk-weighted assets, as modified by the U.S. federal bank regulators. For further information about these final rules, refer to Part I, Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under the heading “Basel III Final Rules” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Cash Dividends
The Bank, as a Virginia banking corporation, may pay dividends only out of retained earnings. In addition, regulatory authorities may limit payment of dividends by any bank, when it is determined that such limitation is in the public interest and necessary to ensure financial soundness of the bank. Regulatory agencies place certain restrictions on dividends paid and loans or advances made by the Bank to the Company. The amount of dividends the Bank may pay to the Company, without prior approval, is limited to current year earnings plus retained net profits for the two preceding years. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, no cash dividends have been paid from the Bank to the Company.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company paid out no cash dividends to common shareholders.
The Company’s Board of Directors determines whether to declare dividends and the amount of any dividends declared. Such determinations by the Board take into account the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and other relevant factors, including any relevant regulatory restrictions. In connection with the Company’s participation in the Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program, there were limitations on the Company’s ability to pay quarterly common stock cash dividends in excess of $0.16 per share prior to January 9, 2012.
66
On May 15, 2013, the Company deferred its tenth consecutive dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock issued to the Treasury. Deferral of dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock does not constitute an event of default. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock are, however, cumulative, and the Company has accumulated the dividends in accordance with the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock and U.S. GAAP and reflected the accumulated dividends are reflected as a portion of the effective dividend on Series A Preferred Stock on the consolidated statements of income. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had accumulated $3.0 million for dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock. The Company has notified the Treasury that it is deferring the August 15, 2013 dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock. In addition, because dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have not been paid for more than six quarters, the authorized number of directors on the Company’s Board of Directors has increased by two, and the Treasury (or any future holders of the Series A Preferred Stock) has the right, voting as a class, to elect two directors to the Company’s Board of Directors at the next annual meeting (or a special meeting called for that purpose) and each annual meeting until all owed and unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have been paid. In April 2012, the Treasury assigned an observer to attend the Company’s board meetings, in part to determine whether and how to exercise this right, but to date the Treasury has not yet exercised this right.
On February 17, 2011, the Company entered into a Written Agreement with the Reserve Bank and the Bureau. The Written Agreement was terminated on July 30, 2013. Under the terms of this Written Agreement, the Parent and the Bank were subject to additional limitations and regulatory restrictions and could not declare or pay dividends to its shareholders (including payments by the Parent on its trust preferred securities) and could not purchase or redeem shares of its stock without prior regulatory approval. The Company and the Bank anticipate entering into an informal memorandum of understanding with the Reserve Bank and the Bureau with terms to be determined.
Effects of Inflation
The effect of changing prices on financial institutions is typically different from other industries as the Company’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. The primary effect of inflation on the Company’s operations is reflected in increased operating costs. In management’s opinion, changes in interest rates affect the financial condition of a financial institution to a far greater degree than changes in the inflation rate. While interest rates are significantly impacted by changes in the inflation rate, they do not necessarily change at the same time or in the same magnitude as the inflation rate.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
There have been no significant changes from the quantitative and qualitative disclosures made in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
The Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2013 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover every situation involving the failure of persons within the Company or its subsidiary to disclose material information required to be set forth in the Company’s periodic reports.
Management of the Company is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the Company’s second quarter ended June 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
67
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
In the ordinary course of operations, the Company and its subsidiaries may become a party to legal proceedings, or property of the Company or its subsidiaries may become subject to legal proceedings. As of June 30, 2013 and based on information currently available, there are no pending legal proceedings to which the Company, or any of its subsidiaries, is a party or to which the property of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is subject that, in the opinion of management, may materially impact the financial condition of the Company.
An investment in our common stock involves significant risks inherent to the Company’s business. Like other bank holding companies, we are subject to a number of risks, many of which are outside of our control. If any of the events or circumstances described in the following risk factors actually occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be harmed. These risks are not the only ones that we may face. Other risks of which we are not aware, including those which relate to the banking and financial services industry in general and us in particular, or those which we do not currently believe are material, may harm our future business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Readers should consider carefully the following important risks, in conjunction with the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes, in evaluating us, our business and an investment in our securities.
Difficult conditions in the economy and the capital markets continue to adversely affect our industry.
Declines in the housing market, with falling home prices and elevated foreclosures, coupled with historically high unemployment and under-employment, have negatively impacted the credit performance of real estate related loans and consumer loans and have resulted in significant write-downs of asset values by financial institutions. These write-downs spread to other securities and loans and have caused many financial institutions to seek additional capital, to reduce or eliminate dividends, to merge with larger and stronger institutions and, in some cases, to fail. In this environment, many lenders and institutional investors have reduced or ceased providing funding to borrowers, including to other financial institutions. This market turmoil and tightening of credit have led to an increased level of commercial and consumer delinquencies, lack of consumer confidence, and reduction of business activity generally. Continuing economic pressure on consumers may adversely affect our business and results of operations. Market developments may affect consumer confidence levels and may cause adverse changes in payment patterns, causing increases in delinquencies and default rates, which may impact our charge-offs and provision for loan losses. A worsening of these conditions would likely exacerbate the adverse effects of these difficult market conditions on us and others in the financial institutions industry.
The capital and credit markets have periodically experienced volatility and disruption in recent years. In some cases, these markets have produced downward pressure on stock prices and credit availability for certain issuers without regard to those issuers’ underlying financial strength. If these levels of market disruption and volatility recur, there can be no assurance that we will not experience an adverse effect, which may be material, on our ability to access capital and on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company has a high concentration of loans secured by both residential and commercial real estate and a further downturn in either or both real estate markets, for any reason, may increase the Company’s credit losses, which would negatively affect its financial results.
The Company offers a variety of secured loans, including commercial lines of credit, commercial term loans, real estate, construction, home equity, consumer and other loans. Most of the Company’s loans are secured by real estate (both residential and commercial) in its market area. At June 30, 2013, approximately 89.6% of the Company’s $671.4 million loan portfolio was secured by residential and commercial real estate. Changes in the real estate market, such as a greater deterioration in market value of collateral, or a greater decline in local employment rates or economic conditions, could adversely affect the Company’s customers’ ability to pay these loans, which in turn could impact the Company’s profitability. There has been a slowdown in the housing market across our geographical footprint, reflecting declining prices and excess inventories of houses to be sold. Repayment of our commercial loans is often dependent on the cash flow of the borrower, which may be unpredictable in the current economy. If the value of real estate serving as collateral for the loan portfolio materially declines, a significant portion of
68
the loan portfolio could become under-collateralized. If the loans that are secured by real estate become troubled when real estate market conditions are declining or have declined, in the event of foreclosure the Company may not be able to realize the amount of collateral that was anticipated at the time of originating the loan. In that event, the Company may have to increase the provision for loan losses, which could have a material adverse effect on its operating results and financial condition.
Offerings of our securities and other potential capital strategies or the conversion of shares of our Series B Preferred Stock into common stock could dilute your investment or otherwise affect your rights as a shareholder.
In the future we may seek to raise additional capital through offerings of our common stock, preferred stock, securities convertible into common stock, or rights to acquire such securities or our common stock. Under our Articles of Incorporation, we have additional authorized shares of common stock that we can issue from time to time at the discretion of our Board of Directors, without further action by shareholders, except where shareholder approval is required by applicable law or listing requirements of the NASDAQ Stock Market. The issuance of any additional shares of common stock or securities convertible into common stock in a subsequent offering could be substantially dilutive to holders of our common stock. Holders of our common stock have no preemptive rights as a matter of law that entitle them to purchase their pro-rata share of any offering or shares of any class or series. In addition, under our Articles of Incorporation, we can authorize and issue additional shares of our preferred stock, in one or more series the terms of which would be determined by our Board of Directors without shareholder approval, unless such approval is required by applicable law or listing requirements of the NASDAQ Stock Market. The market price of our common stock could decline as a result of future sales of our securities or the perception that such sales could occur.
New investors, particularly with respect to newly authorized series of preferred stock, also may have rights, preferences, and privileges that are senior to, and that could adversely affect, our then current shareholders. For example, a new series of preferred stock could rank senior to shares of our common stock. As a result, we could be required to make any dividend payments on such preferred stock before any dividends can be paid on our common stock, and in the event of our bankruptcy, dissolution, or liquidation, we may have to pay the holders of this new series of preferred stock in full prior to any distributions being made to the holders of our common stock.
In addition, the conversion of shares of our Series B Preferred Stock into common stock would dilute the voting power of our then-outstanding shares of common stock.
We cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing, or nature of our future securities offerings or other capital initiatives or whether, when or how many shares of our Series B Preferred Stock will be converted into shares of common stock. Thus, our shareholders bear the risk of our future offerings or future conversions of shares of our Series B Preferred Stock diluting their stock holdings, adversely affecting their rights as shareholders, and/or reducing the market price of our common stock.
Castle Creek and GCP Capital are substantial holders of our common stock.
Castle Creek holds approximately 9.0% of our common stock and approximately 30.0% of our combined common stock and Series B Preferred Stock. GCP Capital holds approximately 9.0% of our common stock and approximately 13.2% of our combined common stock and Series B Preferred Stock. Pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreements entered into with Castle Creek and GCP Capital in the Private Placements, Castle Creek and GCP Capital each have a right to appoint a representative on our Board of Directors and on the Bank’s board of directors. Castle Creek and GCP Capital may have individual economic interests that are different from the other’s interests and different from the interests of our other shareholders.
We may not be able to fully execute on our business initiatives related to the Private Placements and the Rights Offering, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
We intend to use a significant portion of the gross proceeds from the Private Placements and the Rights Offering to strengthen our balance sheet so that we can pursue the following business strategies: (a) the accelerated resolution and disposition of assets adversely classified by the Company (consisting of other real estate owned and classified loans), (b) the optimization of our balance sheet through the restructuring of FHLB advances, and (c) the eventual exit from the Written Agreement and repurchase of our Series A Preferred Stock that we issued to Treasury through its Capital Purchase Program, subject in both instances to the approval of state and federal banking regulators.
69
There are significant costs, risks and uncertainties associated with the development, implementation and execution of these business strategies, including the investment of time and resources, the possibility that these strategies will be less successful or beneficial than anticipated, and the risk of additional liabilities associated with these strategies. Our potential inability to successfully execute these business strategies could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. We expect our non-interest expense to increase in connection with the Private Placements and the Rights Offering and executing these business strategies, and we may incur some or all of these costs in advance of realizing improved financial condition and results of operations as a result of these strategies.
We have a concentration of credit exposure in acquisition and development real estate loans.
At June 30, 2013, we have approximately $42.1 million in loans for the acquisition and development of real estate and for construction of improvements to real estate, representing approximately 6.3% of our total loans outstanding as of that date. These loans are to developers, builders and individuals. Project types financed include acquisition and development of residential subdivisions and commercial developments, builder lines for 1-4 family home construction and loans to individuals for primary and secondary residence construction. These types of loans are generally viewed as having more risk of default than residential real estate loans. Completion of development projects and sale of developed properties may be affected significantly by general economic conditions, and further downturn in the local economy or in occupancy rates in the local economy where the property is located could increase the likelihood of default. Because our loan portfolio contains acquisition and development loans with relatively large balances, the deterioration of one or a few of these loans could cause a significant increase in our percentage of non-performing loans. An increase in non-performing loans could result in a loss of earnings from these loans, an increase in the provision for loan losses and an increase in charge-offs, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Deterioration in the soundness of our counterparties could adversely affect us.
Our ability to engage in routine funding transactions could be adversely affected by the actions and commercial soundness of other financial institutions. Financial services institutions are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty or other relationships, and we routinely execute transactions with counterparties in the financial industry, including brokers and dealers, commercial banks, and other institutional clients. As a result, defaults by, or even rumors or questions about, one or more financial services institutions, or the financial services industry generally, could create another market-wide liquidity crisis similar to that experienced in late 2008 and early 2009 and could lead to losses or defaults by us or by other institutions. There is no assurance that the failure of our counterparties would not materially adversely affect the Company’s results of operations.
Our small to medium-sized business target market may have fewer financial resources to weather a downturn in the economy.
We target our commercial development and marketing strategy primarily to serve the banking and financial services needs of small and medium-sized businesses. These businesses generally have fewer financial resources in terms of capital or borrowing capacity than larger entities. If general economic conditions negatively impact this major economic sector in the markets in which we operate, our results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.
We may be adversely affected by economic conditions in our market area.
We operate in a mixed market environment with influences from both rural and urban areas. Because our lending operation is concentrated in the Northern Neck, Middle Peninsula, Capital and Southern Regions of Virginia, we will be affected by the general economic conditions in these markets. Changes in the local economy may influence the growth rate of our loans and deposits, the quality of the loan portfolio, and loan and deposit pricing. A significant decline in general economic conditions caused by inflation, recession, unemployment or other factors beyond our control would impact these local economic conditions and the demand for banking products and services generally, which could negatively affect our financial condition and performance. Although we might not have significant credit exposure to all the businesses in our areas, the downturn in any of these businesses could have a negative impact on local economic conditions and real estate collateral values generally, which could negatively affect our profitability.
If our allowance for loan losses becomes inadequate, our results of operations may be adversely affected.
Making loans is an essential element of our business. The risk of nonpayment is affected by a number of factors, including but not limited to: the duration of the credit; credit risks of a particular customer; changes in economic and industry conditions; and, in the case of a collateralized loan, risks resulting from uncertainties about the future value of the collateral. Although we seek to mitigate risks inherent in lending by adhering to specific underwriting practices, our loans may not be repaid. While we strive to
70
carefully monitor credit quality and to identify loans that may become nonperforming, at any time there are loans included in the portfolio that will result in losses, but that have not been identified as nonperforming or potential problem loans. We cannot be sure that we will be able to identify deteriorating loans before they become nonperforming assets, or that we will be able to limit losses on those loans that are identified. We attempt to maintain an appropriate allowance for loan losses to provide for potential losses in our loan portfolio. Our allowance for loan losses is determined by analyzing historical loan losses, current trends in delinquencies and charge-offs, current economic conditions that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay and the value of collateral, changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio and industry information. Also included in our estimates for loan losses are considerations with respect to the impact of economic events, the outcome of which are uncertain. Because any estimate of loan losses is necessarily subjective and the accuracy of any estimate depends on the outcome of future events, we face the risk that charge-offs in future periods will exceed our allowance for loan losses and that additional increases in the allowance for loan losses will be required. Additions to the allowance for loan losses would result in a decrease of our net income. Although we believe our allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb probable losses in our loan portfolio, we cannot predict such losses or that our allowance will be adequate in the future.
We may need to raise additional capital that may not be available to us.
As a result of losses in 2009 and 2010 and other losses that we may incur in the future, we may need to raise additional capital in the future if we incur additional losses or due to regulatory mandates. The ability to raise additional capital, if needed, will depend in part on conditions in the capital markets at that time, which are outside our control, and on our financial performance. Accordingly, additional capital may not be raised, if and when needed, on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If we cannot raise additional capital when needed, our ability to maintain our capital ratios could be materially impaired, and we could face additional regulatory challenges.
The Basel III capital framework will require higher levels of capital and liquid assets, which could adversely affect the Company’s net income and return on equity.
In July 2013, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted rules to implement the Basel III capital framework and for calculating risk-weighted assets, as modified by the U.S. federal bank regulators (or the Basel III Capital Rules). For further information about these final rules, refer to Part I, Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under the heading “Basel III Final Rules” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The Basel III Capital Rules, when implemented by the U.S. banking agencies and fully phased-in, represent the most comprehensive overhaul of the U.S. banking capital framework in over two decades. These rules will require bank holding companies and their subsidiaries, such as the Company and the Bank, to dedicate more resources to capital planning and regulatory compliance, and maintain substantially more capital as a result of higher required capital levels and more demanding regulatory capital risk-weightings and calculations. The rules will also require all banks to substantially change the manner in which they collect and report information to calculate risk-weighted assets, and will likely increase risk-weighted assets at many banking organizations as a result of applying higher risk-weightings to certain types of loans and securities. As a result, we may be forced to limit originations of certain types of commercial and mortgage loans, thereby reducing the amount of credit available to borrowers and limiting opportunities to earn interest income from the loan portfolio, or change the way we manage past-due exposures.
Due to the changes to bank capital levels and the calculation of risk-weighted assets , many banks could be required to access the capital markets on short notice and in relatively weak economic conditions, which could result in banks raising capital that significantly dilutes existing shareholders. Additionally, many community banks could be forced to limit banking operations and activities, and growth of loan portfolios and interest income, in order to focus on retention of earnings to improve capital levels. If the Basel III Capital Rules require the Company to access the capital markets in this manner, or similarly limit the Bank’s operations and activities, the Basel III Capital Rules would have a detrimental effect on our net income and return on equity and limit the products and services we provide to our customers.
The Company is not paying dividends on its common stock or Series B Preferred Stock and is deferring distributions on its Series A Preferred Stock, and is otherwise restricted from paying cash dividends on its common stock and Series B Preferred Stock. The failure to resume paying dividends and distributions may adversely affect the Company and has provided board appointment rights to the holders of our Series A Preferred Stock.
71
The Company historically paid quarterly dividends before suspending dividend payments on its common stock in the first quarter of 2011. There is no assurance that the Company will resume paying cash common dividends. Even if the Company resumes paying common dividends, future payment of cash dividends on our common stock, if any, will be subject to the prior payment of all unpaid dividends and deferred distributions on the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock currently held by the Treasury. All dividends are declared and paid at the discretion of our Board of Directors and are dependent upon our liquidity, financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and such other factors as our Board of Directors may deem relevant.
Further, on May 15, 2013, the Company deferred its tenth consecutive dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock issued to the Treasury, and the Company has notified the Treasury that it will be deferring its eleventh consecutive dividend that is payable on August 15, 2013. Deferral of dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock does not constitute an event of default. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock are, however, cumulative, and the Company has accumulated the dividends in accordance with the terms of the preferred stock and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and reflected the accumulated dividends as a portion of the effective dividend on preferred stock on the consolidated statements of operations. As of May 15, 2013, the Company had accumulated $3.0 million for dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock. Because dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have not been paid for an aggregate of six quarterly dividend periods or more, whether or not consecutive, the Treasury has the right, voting as a class, to elect two directors to the Company’s Board at the next annual meeting (or at a special meeting called for that purpose) and at every subsequent annual meeting until all owed and unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have been paid. In April 2012, the Treasury assigned an observer to attend the Company’s Board meetings, in part to determine whether and how to exercise this right, but to date the Treasury has not yet exercised this right to elect directors.
Compliance with laws, regulations and supervisory guidance, both new and existing, may adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We are subject to numerous laws, regulations and supervision from both federal and state agencies. During the past few years, there has been an increase in legislation related to and regulation of the financial services industry. We expect this increased level of oversight to continue. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations could result in financial, structural and operational penalties, including receivership. In addition, establishing systems and processes to achieve compliance with these laws and regulations may increase our costs and/or limit our ability to pursue certain business opportunities.
Laws and regulations, and any interpretations and applications with respect thereto, generally are intended to benefit consumers, borrowers and depositors, not shareholders. The legislative and regulatory environment is beyond our control, may change rapidly and unpredictably and may negatively influence our revenue, costs, earnings, and capital levels. Our success depends on our ability to maintain compliance with both existing and new laws and regulations.
The Dodd-Frank Act could continue to increase our regulatory compliance burden and associated costs, place restrictions on certain products and services, and limit our future capital raising strategies.
A wide range of regulatory initiatives directed at the financial services industry have been proposed in recent years. One of those initiatives, the Dodd-Frank Act, was signed into law on July 21, 2010. The Dodd-Frank Act represents a sweeping overhaul of the financial services industry within the United States and mandates significant changes in the financial regulatory landscape that will impact all financial institutions, including the Company. The Dodd-Frank Act will likely increase our regulatory compliance burden and may have a material adverse effect on us, by increasing the costs associated with our regulatory examinations and compliance measures. The federal regulatory agencies, and particularly bank regulatory agencies, are given significant discretion in drafting the Dodd-Frank Act’s implementing rules and regulations and, consequently, many of the details and much of the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act will depend on the final implementing rules and regulations. Accordingly, it remains too early to fully assess the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act and subsequent regulatory rulemaking processes on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Among the Dodd-Frank Act’s significant regulatory changes, the Dodd-Frank Act creates a new financial consumer protection agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, that could impose new regulations on us and include its examiners in our routine regulatory examinations conducted by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”), which could increase our regulatory compliance burden and costs and restrict the financial products and services we can offer to our customers. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau may reshape the consumer financial laws through rulemaking and enforcement of the Dodd-Frank Act’s prohibitions against unfair, deceptive and abusive business practices, which may directly impact the business operations of financial institutions offering consumer financial products or services, including the Company. This agency’s broad
72
rulemaking authority includes identifying practices or acts that are unfair, deceptive or abusive in connection with any consumer financial transaction or consumer financial product or service. Although the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has jurisdiction over banks with $10 billion or greater in assets, rules, regulations and policies issued by the Bureau may also apply to the Company or its subsidiaries by virtue of the adoption of such policies and best practices by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”) and FDIC. The costs and limitations related to this additional regulatory agency and the limitations and restrictions that will be placed upon the Company with respect to its consumer product and service offerings have yet to be determined. However, these costs, limitations and restrictions may produce significant, material effects on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Dodd-Frank Act also increases regulatory supervision and examination of bank holding companies and their banking and non-banking subsidiaries, which could increase our regulatory compliance burden and costs and restrict our ability to generate revenues from non-banking operations. The Dodd-Frank Act imposes more stringent capital requirements on bank holding companies, which could limit our future capital strategies. The Dodd-Frank Act also increases regulation of derivatives and hedging transactions, which could limit our ability to enter into, or increase the costs associated with, interest rate hedging transactions.
The Company may incur losses if it is unable to successfully manage interest rate risk.
The Company’s profitability depends in substantial part upon the spread between the interest rates earned on investments and loans and interest rates paid on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. These rates are normally in line with general market rates and rise and fall based on the asset liability committee’s view of our financing and liquidity needs. The Company may selectively pay above-market rates to attract deposits as it has done in some of the Company’s marketing promotions in the past. Changes in interest rates will affect the Company’s operating performance and financial condition in diverse ways including the pricing of securities, loans and deposits, which, in turn, may affect the growth in loan and retail deposit volume. The Company attempts to minimize the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk, but cannot eliminate it. The Company’s net interest income will be adversely affected if market interest rates change so that the interest it pays on deposits and borrowings increases faster than the interest earned on loans and investments. The Company’s net interest spread will depend on many factors that are partly or entirely outside its control, including competition, federal economic, monetary and fiscal policies, and economic conditions generally. Fluctuations in market rates are neither predictable nor controllable and may have a material and negative effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Changes in interest rates also affect the value of the Company’s loans. An increase in interest rates could adversely affect the Company’s borrowers’ ability to pay the principal or interest on existing loans or reduce their desire to borrow more money. This may lead to an increase in nonperforming assets or a decrease in loan originations, either of which could have a material and negative effect on the Company’s results of operations.
Our future success is dependent on our ability to compete effectively in the highly competitive banking industry.
We face vigorous competition from other banks and other financial institutions, including savings and loan associations, savings banks, finance companies and credit unions for deposits, loans and other financial services in our market area. A number of these banks and other financial institutions are significantly larger than we are and have substantially greater access to capital and other resources, as well as larger lending limits and branch systems, and offer a wider array of banking services. To a limited extent, we also compete with other providers of financial services, such as money market mutual funds, brokerage firms, consumer finance companies, insurance companies and governmental organizations which may offer more favorable financing than we can. Many of our non-bank competitors are not subject to the same extensive regulations that govern us. As a result, these non-bank competitors have advantages over us in providing certain services. While we believe we compete effectively with these other financial institutions in our primary markets, we may face a competitive disadvantage as a result of our smaller size, smaller asset base, lack of geographic diversification and inability to spread our marketing costs across a broader market. If we have to raise interest rates paid on deposits or lower interest rates charged on loans to compete effectively, our net interest margin and income could be negatively affected. Failure to compete effectively to attract new or to retain existing, clients may reduce or limit our margins and our market share and may adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and growth.
The recent repeal of federal prohibitions on payment of interest on demand deposits could increase interest expense.
As part of the Dodd-Frank Act, the prohibition on the ability of financial institutions to pay interest on demand deposit accounts was repealed. As a result, beginning on July 21, 2011 financial institutions may offer interest on demand deposits. The Company
73
does not yet know what interest rates other institutions may offer. If we offer interest on demand deposit accounts to attract new customers or retain existing customers, our interest expense will increase and our net interest margin will decline, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
We anticipate entering into a memorandum of understanding that could have a material negative effect on our business, operating flexibility, financial conditions and the value of our common stock. In addition, addressing the requirements of a memorandum of understanding could require significant time and attention from our management team, which could increase our costs, impede the efficiency of our internal business processes and adversely affect our profitability in the near-term.
As previously disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 5, 2013, our Written Agreement, dated February 17, 2011, by and among the Company, the Bank, the Reserve Bank and the Bureau was terminated effective July 30, 2013. In connection with the termination of the Written Agreement, we anticipate that the Company and the Bank will enter into an informal memorandum of understanding (an “MOU”) with the Reserve Bank and the Bureau with terms to be determined. An MOU is an informal action, as compared to a formal action such as a written agreement, and is not enforceable in court and carries no specific regulatory sanction for failure to comply.
Entry into an MOU could, however, constitute heightened regulatory scrutiny and monitoring of the Company and the Bank in the specific areas addressed in the MOU. A material failure of the Company and the Bank to comply with a provision of an MOU could subject the Company and the Bank to additional regulatory restrictions on our business imposed by the Reserve Bank and/or the Bureau, which may have a material adverse effect on our future results of operations and financial condition. While the Company and the Bank would intend to take such actions as may be necessary to enable the Company and the Bank to comply with the requirements of an MOU, there can be no assurance that the Company and the Bank would be able to comply fully with the provisions of an MOU, or that efforts to comply with an MOU would not have adverse effects on the operations and financial conditions of the Company and the Bank.
The Company is subject to restrictions and obligations as a participant in the Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program.
In January 2009, as part of the Capital Purchase Program, we issued and sold to the Treasury 24,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and a warrant for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $24.0 million. Participation in the Capital Purchase Program subjects us to specific restrictions under the terms of the Capital Purchase Program, including limits on our ability to pay dividends and repurchase our capital stock, limitations on executive compensation, and increased oversight by the Treasury, regulators and Congress under the Economic Emergency Stabilization Act of 2008.
Many recipients under the Capital Purchase Program have repaid the Treasury and are no longer subject to the restrictions imposed under the Capital Purchase Program. Withdrawing from the Capital Purchase Program requires either (i) approval of banking regulators to repurchase the Series A Preferred stock, and we may not be able to obtain such approval, or a condition of obtaining such approval may require us to raise additional capital, or (ii) the Treasury to sell the Series A Preferred stock to a private investor, including through a public auction process. Unanticipated consequences of participation in the Capital Purchase Program could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, access to funding and the trading price of our common stock.
We have initiated discussions with the Federal Reserve and the Treasury regarding the repurchase of our Series A Preferred Stock. We may not, however, receive regulatory approval to repurchase the Series A Preferred Stock, or Treasury may sell the Series A Preferred Stock to one or more private investors which could complicate efforts by the Company to repurchase the Series A Preferred Stock.
If the Series A Preferred Stock remains outstanding, we are at risk of an increase in the dividend rate on the Series A Preferred Stock and changes to our Board of Directors.
If we are unable to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock prior to February 15, 2014, the dividend rate will increase substantially on that date from 5.0% per annum to 9.0% per annum. This increase in the annual dividend rate could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, our net income available to common shareholders and our earnings per share.
Because dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have not been paid for an aggregate of six quarterly dividend periods or more, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock have the right, voting as a class, to elect two directors to the Company’s Board at the next annual meeting (or at a special meeting called for that purpose) and at every subsequent annual meeting until all owed and unpaid dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock have been paid. At present, the Treasury holds all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and has, as of the date of this prospectus, not yet exercised this right to elect directors (although in April 2012, the Treasury assigned an observer to attend the Company’s Board meetings, in part to determine whether and how to exercise this right).
The Treasury may sell the Series A Preferred Stock to private investors at auction. Any holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, including private equity funds, would have the board representation rights described in the preceding paragraph. Although the Treasury has not yet exercised these rights as the current holder of the Series A Preferred Stock, a private equity fund or other private purchaser of the Series A Preferred Stock may exercise this right and assume representation on the Board of Directors without the approval of existing Board members or our shareholders. The Board members would have voting rights and, as members of the Board, would have the ability to influence the management and control of the Company and its operations.
We rely heavily on our management team and the unexpected loss of any of those personnel could adversely affect our operations; we depend on our ability to attract and retain key personnel.
We are a customer-focused and relationship-driven organization. We expect our future growth to be driven in a large part by the relationships maintained with our customers by our president and chief executive officer and other senior officers. We have entered into employment agreements with the majority of our executive officers. The existence of such agreements, however, does not necessarily assure that we will be able to continue to retain their services. The unexpected loss of any of our key employees could have an adverse effect on our business and possibly result in reduced revenues and earnings. We do maintain bank-owned life insurance on key officers that would help cover some of the economic impact of a loss caused by death. The
74
implementation of our business strategy will also require us to continue to attract, hire, motivate and retain skilled personnel to develop new customer relationships as well as new financial products and services. Many experienced banking professionals employed by our competitors are covered by agreements not to compete or solicit their existing customers if they were to leave their current employment. These agreements make the recruitment of these professionals more difficult. The market for these people is competitive, and we cannot assure you that we will be successful in attracting, hiring, motivating or retaining them.
We may not be able to successfully manage our long-term growth, which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
A key aspect of our long-term business strategy is our continued growth and expansion. Our ability to continue to grow depends, in part, upon our ability to:
• | | open new branch offices or acquire existing branches or other financial institutions; |
• | | attract deposits to those locations; and |
• | | identify attractive loan and investment opportunities. |
We may not be able to successfully implement our growth strategy if we are unable to identify attractive markets, locations or opportunities to expand in the future, or if we are subject to regulatory restrictions on growth or expansion of our operations. Our ability to manage our growth successfully also will depend on whether we can maintain capital levels adequate to support our growth, maintain cost controls and asset quality and successfully integrate any businesses we acquire into our organization. As we identify opportunities to implement our growth strategy by opening new branches or acquiring branches or other banks, we may incur increased personnel, occupancy and other operating expenses. In the case of new branches, we must absorb those higher expenses while we begin to generate new deposits, and there is a further time lag involved in redeploying new deposits into attractively priced loans and other higher yielding earning assets. Thus, any plans for branch expansion could decrease our earnings in the short run, even if we efficiently execute our branching strategy.
Our deposit insurance premiums could increase in the future, which may adversely affect our future financial performance.
The FDIC insures deposits at FDIC insured financial institutions, including the Bank. The FDIC charges insured financial institutions premiums to maintain the Deposit Insurance Fund (the “DIF”) at a certain level. Economic conditions since 2008 have increased the rate of bank failures and expectations for further bank failures, requiring the FDIC to make payments for insured deposits from the DIF and prepare for future payments from the DIF.
During 2009, the FDIC imposed a special deposit insurance assessment on all institutions which it regulates, including the Bank. This special assessment was imposed due to the need to replenish the DIF, as a result of increased bank failures and expected future bank failures. In addition, the FDIC required regulated institutions to prepay their fourth quarter 2009, and full year 2010, 2011 and 2012 assessments in December 2009. Any similar, additional measures taken by the FDIC to maintain or replenish the DIF may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
On April 1, 2011, final rules to implement changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act with respect to the FDIC assessment rules became effective. The rules provide that a depository institution’s deposit insurance assessment will be calculated based on the institution’s total assets less tangible equity, rather than the previous base of total deposits. These changes have not materially increased the Company’s FDIC insurance assessments for comparable asset and deposit levels. However, if the Bank’s asset size increases or the FDIC takes other actions to replenish the DIF, the Bank’s FDIC insurance premiums could increase.
Certain losses or other tax assets could be limited if we experience an ownership change, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code.
Our ability to use net operating loss carryforwards, built-in losses and certain other tax assets may be limited in the event of an “ownership change” as defined by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). In general, an “ownership change” will occur if there is a cumulative change in our ownership by “5% shareholders” (as defined in the Code) that exceeds 50 percentage points over a rolling three-year period. If an “ownership change” occurs, Section 382 would impose an annual limit on the amount of losses or other tax assets we can use to reduce our taxable income equal to the product of the total value of our outstanding equity immediately prior to the “ownership change” and the applicable federal long-term tax-exempt interest rate. A number of special rules apply to calculating this limit. While the recent Private Placements may have increased the likelihood of an “ownership change,” we currently believe that an “ownership change” has not occurred. We are taking steps to
75
implement a tax benefits preservation plan to minimize the chances of an “ownership change,” however, such a plan cannot guarantee against the future occurrence of an “ownership change.” Moreover, there are no assurances that we will receive regulatory approvals to implement such a plan.
The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls may not prevent or detect all errors or acts of fraud.
The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to reasonably assure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, and recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. The Company believes that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or omission. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by individual acts, by collusion by two or more people and/or by override of the established controls. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in the Company’s control systems and in human nature, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
The Company’s information systems may experience an interruption in service or breach in security.
The Company relies heavily on communications and information systems to conduct the Company’s business. Any failure, interruption or breach of security of these systems could result in failures or disruptions in the Company’s customer relationship management, transaction processing systems and various accounting and data management systems. While it has policies and procedures designed to prevent and/or limit the effect of any failure, interruption or security breach of the Company’s communication and information systems, there can be no assurance that any such failures, interruptions or security breaches will not occur, or, if they do occur, they will be adequately addressed on a timely basis. The occurrence of failures, interruptions or security breaches of the Company’s communication and information systems could damage the Company’s reputation, result in a loss of customer business, subject us to additional regulatory scrutiny, or expose us to civil litigation and possible financial liability, any of which could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations.
The Company continually encounters technological change.
The financial services industry is continually undergoing rapid technological change with frequent introductions of new technology-driven products and services. The effective use of technology increases efficiency and enables financial institutions to better serve customers and to reduce costs. The Company’s future success depends, in part, upon its ability to address the needs of its customers by using technology to provide products and services that will satisfy customer demands, as well as to create additional efficiencies in the Company’s operations. Many of the Company’s competitors have substantially greater resources to invest in technological improvements. The Company may not be able to effectively implement new technology-driven products and services or be successful in marketing these products and services to its customers. Failure to successfully keep pace with technological change affecting the financial services industry could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business and, in turn, the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
The Company’s operations rely on certain external vendors.
The Company is reliant upon certain external vendors to provide products and services necessary to maintain day-to-day operations of the Company. Accordingly, the Company’s operations are exposed to risk that these vendors will not perform in accordance with the contracted arrangements under service level agreements. The Company maintains a system of comprehensive policies and a control framework designed to monitor vendor risks including, among other things, (i) changes in the vendor’s organizational structure, (ii) changes in the vendor’s financial condition, (iii) changes in the vendor’s support for existing products and services and (iv) changes in the vendor’s strategic focus. While the Company believes these policies and procedures help to mitigate risk, the failure of an external vendor to perform in accordance with the contracted arrangements under service level agreements could be disruptive to the Company’s operations, which could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business and, in turn, the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
The Company is subject to environmental liability risk associated with lending activities.
A significant portion of the Company’s loan portfolio is secured by real property. During the ordinary course of business, the Company may foreclose on and take title to properties securing certain loans. In doing so, there is a risk that hazardous or toxic
76
substances could be found on these properties. If hazardous or toxic substances are found, the Company may be liable for remediation costs, as well as for personal injury and property damage. Environmental laws may require the Company to incur substantial expenses and may materially reduce the affected property’s value or limit the Company’s ability to use or sell the affected property. In addition, future laws or more stringent interpretations or enforcement policies with respect to existing laws may increase the Company’s exposure to environmental liability. Although the Company has policies and procedures to perform an environmental review before initiating any foreclosure action on real property, these reviews may not be sufficient to detect all potential environmental hazards. The remediation costs and any other financial liabilities associated with an environmental hazard could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
Severe weather, natural disasters, acts of war or terrorism and other external events could significantly impact the Company’s business.
Severe weather, natural disasters, acts of war or terrorism and other adverse external events could have a significant impact on the Company’s ability to conduct business. In addition, such events could affect the stability of the Company’s deposit base, impair the ability of borrowers to repay outstanding loans, impair the value of collateral securing loans, cause significant property damage, result in loss of revenue and/or cause the Company to incur additional expenses. The occurrence of any such event in the future could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Changes in accounting standards and management’s selection of accounting methods, including assumptions and estimates, could materially impact our financial statements.
From time to time the SEC and the Financial Accounting Standards Board change the financial accounting and reporting standards that govern the preparation of the Company’s financial statements. These changes can be hard to predict and can materially impact how the Company records and reports its financial condition and results of operations. In some cases, the Company could be required to apply a new or revised standard retroactively, resulting in changes to previously reported financial results, or a cumulative charge to retained earnings. In addition, management is required to use certain assumptions and estimates in preparing our financial statements, including determining the fair value of certain assets and liabilities, among other items. If the assumptions or estimates are incorrect, the Company may experience unexpected material consequences.
Liquidity needs could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
We rely on dividends from the Bank as our primary source of additional liquidity, and the payment of dividends by the Bank to us is restricted by applicable state and federal law and the Written Agreement. The primary sources of funds of the Bank are client deposits and loan repayments. While scheduled loan repayments are a relatively stable source of funds, they are subject to the ability of borrowers to repay the loans. The ability of borrowers to repay loans can be adversely affected by a number of factors, including changes in economic conditions, adverse trends or events affecting business industry groups, reductions in real estate values or markets, business closings or lay-offs, inclement weather, natural disasters and international instability. Additionally, deposit levels may be affected by a number of factors, including rates paid by competitors, general interest rate levels, regulatory capital requirements, returns available to clients on alternative investments and general economic conditions. Accordingly, we may be required from time to time to rely on secondary sources of liquidity to meet withdrawal demands or otherwise fund operations. Such sources include Federal Home Loan Bank advances, sales of securities and loans, and federal funds lines of credit from correspondent banks, as well as out-of-market time deposits. While we believe that these sources are currently adequate, there can be no assurance they will be sufficient to meet future liquidity demands.
Lack of consumer confidence in financial institutions may decrease our level of deposits.
Our level of deposits may be affected by lack of consumer confidence in financial institutions, which have caused fewer depositors to be willing to maintain deposits that are not FDIC insured accounts. This may cause depositors to withdraw deposits and place them in other institutions or to invest uninsured funds in investments perceived as being more secure, such as securities issued by the Treasury. These consumer preferences may force us to pay higher interest rates to retain deposits and may constrain liquidity as we seek to meet funding needs caused by reduced deposit levels.

We have goodwill that may become impaired, and thus result in a charge against earnings.
We are required by U.S. GAAP to test goodwill for impairment at least annually. Testing for impairment of goodwill involves the identification of reporting units and the estimation of fair values. The estimation of fair values involves a high degree of judgment and subjectivity in the assumptions used. As of June 30, 2013, we had $16.0 million of goodwill related to branch acquisitions in 2003 and 2008. To date, we have not recorded any impairment charges on our goodwill, however there is no guarantee that we may not be forced to recognize impairment charges in the future as operating and economic conditions change.
Other-than-temporary impairment could reduce our earnings.
We may be required to record other-than-temporary impairment charges on our investment securities if they suffer a decline in value that is considered other-than-temporary. Numerous factors, including lack of liquidity for re-sales of certain investment securities, absence of reliable pricing information for certain investment securities, adverse changes in business climate, adverse actions by regulators, or unanticipated changes in the competitive environment could have a negative effect on our securities portfolio in future periods. An other-than-temporary impairment charge could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
We may be parties to certain legal proceedings that may impact our earnings.
We face significant legal risks in our businesses, and the volume of claims and amount of damages and penalties claimed in litigation and regulatory proceedings against financial institutions remain high. Substantial legal liability or significant regulatory action against us could have material adverse financial impact or cause significant reputational risk to us, which in turn could seriously harm our business prospects.
Our common stock trading volume may not provide adequate liquidity for investors.
Although shares of the Company’s common stock are listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, the average daily trading volume in the common stock is less than that of many other financial services companies. A public trading market having the desired characteristics of depth, liquidity and orderliness depends on the presence in the marketplace of a sufficient number of willing buyers and sellers of the common stock at any given time. This presence depends on the individual decisions of investors and general economic and market conditions over which the Company has no control. Given the daily average trading volume of the Company’s common stock, significant sales of the common stock in a brief period of time, or the expectation of these sales, could cause a decline in the price of the Company’s common stock.
Neither our common stock nor our Series B Preferred Stock is an insured deposit.
Neither the Company’s common stock nor its Series B Preferred Stock is a bank deposit and, therefore, losses in their value are not insured by the FDIC, any other deposit insurance fund or by any other public or private entity. Investment in the Company’s common stock or Series B Preferred stock is inherently risky for the reasons described in this “Risk Factors” section and elsewhere in this prospectus and in the documents incorporated herein by reference, and is subject to the same market forces and investment risks that affect the price of capital stock in any other company, including the possible loss of some or all principal invested.
Item 2. | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds |
In January 2001, the Company announced a stock repurchase program by which management was authorized to repurchase up to 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. This plan was amended in 2003 and the number of shares by which management is authorized to repurchase is up to 5% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock on January 1 of each year. There is no stated expiration date for the program. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company did not repurchase any of its common stock.
In connection with the Written Agreement with the Reserve Bank and the Bureau, as previously described, the Company was subject to additional limitations and regulatory restrictions and could not purchase or redeem shares of its stock without prior regulatory approval. The Written Agreement was terminated on July 30, 2013. The Company and the Bank anticipate entering into an informal memorandum of understanding with the Reserve Bank and the Bureau with terms to be determined.
