Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) … Under the CARES Act (see “Note 2 – Risks and Uncertainties”) the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) was directed by Congress to provide up to $349 billion (subsequently expanded by an additional $310 billion) in loans to small businesses with less than 500 employees to assist these businesses in meeting their payroll and other financial obligations over the next several months. These government guaranteed loans are made with an interest rate of 1%, a risk weight of 0% under risk-based capital rules, have a term of 2 years, and under certain conditions the SBA can forgive them after eight weeks. Farmers & Merchants Bank of Central California actively participated in the PPP, and since April, 2020 the Bank has funded $347.4 million of loans for 1,536 small business customers.

This is because this table does not include impaired loans that were previously modified in a troubled debt restructuring, are currently performing and are no longer disclosed or classified as TDR’s. A loan or lease can be removed from TDR status if it was restructured at a market rate in a prior calendar year and is currently in compliance with its modified terms. However, these loans or leases continue to be classified as impaired and are individually evaluated for impairment. On March 27, 2020 the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was signed into law. The CARES Act provides financial institutions, under specific circumstances, the opportunity to temporarily suspend certain requirements under generally accepted accounting principles related to TDR’s for a limited period of time to account for the effects of COVID-19. In March 2020, a joint statement was issued by federal and state regulatory agencies, after consultation with the FASB, to clarify that short-term loan modifications are not TDRs if made on a good-faith basis in response to COVID-19 to borrowers who were current prior to any relief. Under this guidance, six months is provided as an example of short-term, and current is defined as less than 30 days past due at the time the modification program is implemented. The guidance also provides that these modified loans generally will not be classified as nonaccrual during the term of the modification. For the quarter ended June we restructured of loans under the CARES Act guidelines (primarily payment or interest deferrals up to months). We believe that these actions will assist these borrowers in getting through these difficult times, but no guaranties can be made that at some time in the future these loans will not be required to be accounted for as a TDR. For borrowers who are 30 days or more past due when enrolling in a loan modification program related to the COVID-19 pandemic, we evaluate the loan modifications under our existing TDR framework, and where such a loan modification would result in a more than insignificant concession to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty, the loan will be accounted for as a TDR and will generally not accrue interest. See “Note 2 – Risks and Uncertainties” for additional information on the CARES Act and the impact of COVID-19 on the Company. At June 30, 2020, the Company allocated $373,000 of specific reserves to $8.1 million of troubled debt restructured loans & leases, all of which were performing. The Company had no commitments at June 30, 2020 to lend additional amounts to customers with outstanding loans or leases that are classified as TDRs. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, there were five loans modified as a troubled debt restructuring. The modification involved a reduction of the stated interest rate of the loan for 5 years and extended the maturity date for 10 years. The following table presents loans or leases by class modified as troubled debt restructured loans or leases during the and -month periods ended June (in thousand s) : Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 Troubled Debt Restructurings Number of Loans Pre-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment Post- Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment Number of Loans Pre-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment Post-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment Residential 1st Mortgages - $ - $ - 5 $ 634 $ 634 Total - $ - $ - 5 $ 634 $ 634 During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, and the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 there were no payment defaults on loans or leases modified as troubled debt restructurings within twelve months following the modification. The Company considers a loan or lease to be in payment default once it is greater than 90 days contractually past due under the modified terms. At December 31, 2019, the Company allocated $612,000 of specific reserves to $12.1 million of troubled debt restructured loans, all of which were performing. The Company had no commitments at December 31, 2019 to lend additional amounts to customers with outstanding loans that are classified as troubled debt restructurings. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the terms of certain loans were modified as troubled debt restructurings. The modification of the terms of such loans included one or a combination of the following: a reduction of the stated interest rate of the loan; an extension of the maturity date at a stated rate of interest lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk; or a permanent reduction of the recorded investment in the loan. There were no modifications involving a reduction of the stated interest rate. Modifications involving an extension of the maturity date ranged from 3 months to 6 years.
