The allocation of a portion of the allowance to one category of loans does not preclude its availability to absorb losses in other categories. The unallocated allowance is established for probable losses that have been incurred as of the reporting date but are not reflected in the allocated allowance. Management considers the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2019 to be at an appropriate level to provide for probable losses that can be reasonably estimated based on general and specific conditions at that date. While the Company uses the best information it has available to make evaluations, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if conditions differ substantially from the information used in making the evaluations. To the extent actual outcomes differ from the estimates, additional provisions for credit losses may be required that would reduce future earnings. In addition, as an integral part of their examination process, the bank regulators periodically review the allowance for loan losses and may require the Company to increase the allowance based on their analysis of information available at the time of their examination.

When a mortgage loan becomes seriously delinquent (90 days or more contractually past due), it displays weaknesses that may result in a loss. As a loan becomes more delinquent, the likelihood of the borrower repaying the loan decreases and the loan becomes more collateral-dependent. A mortgage loan becomes collateral-dependent when the proceeds for repayment can be expected to come only from the sale or operation of the collateral and not from borrower repayments. Generally, appraisals are obtained after a loan becomes collateral-dependent or is four months delinquent. The carrying value of collateral-dependent loans is adjusted to the fair value of the collateral less selling costs. Any commercial real estate, commercial, construction or equity loan that has a loan balance in excess of a specified amount is also periodically reviewed to determine whether the loan exhibits any weaknesses and is performing in accordance with its contractual terms. The Company had six nonaccrual loans with a book value of $736,000 at December 31, 2019 and 11 nonaccrual loans with a book value of $2.2 million as of December 31, 2018. The Company collected interest on nonaccrual loans of $58,000 and $93,000 during 2019 and 2018, respectively, but due to regulatory requirements, the Company recorded the interest as a reduction of principal. The Company would have recognized additional interest income of $60,000 and $133,000 during 2019 and 2018, respectively, had the loans been accruing interest. At December 31, 2019, the Company had one loan for $1,000 that was 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest. The Company did not have any loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest as of December 31, 2018. There were no loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring during the year ended December 31, 2019 or 2018. There were no new troubled debt restructurings within the 12 months ended December 31, 2019 that subsequently defaulted. The table below summarizes troubled debt restucturings by class of loans: Number of Accrual Number of Nonaccrual (Dollars in thousands) Loans Status Loans Status Total December 31, 2019: One- to four-family residential mortgages 3 $ 577 2 $ 525 $ 1,102 Home equity loans and lines of credit — — 1 64 64 Total 3 $ 577 3 $ 589 $ 1,166 December 31, 2018: One- to four-family residential mortgages 4 $ 897 3 $ 691 $ 1,588 Home equity loans and lines of credit — — 1 78 78 Total 4 $ 897 4 $ 769 $ 1,666 There were no delinquent restructured loans at December 31, 2019 or December 31, 2018. Restructurings include deferrals of interest and/or principal payments and temporary or permanent reductions in interest rates due to the financial difficulties of the borrowers. At December 31, 2019, we have no commitments to lend any additional funds to these borrowers. The Company had no real estate owned as of December 31, 2019 or 2018. There were no loans in the process of foreclosure at December 31, 2019. There were two one- to four-family residential mortgage loans totaling $838,000 and one home equity loan for $41,000 in the process of foreclosure as of December 31, 2018. Nearly all of our real estate loans are collateralized by real estate located in the State of Hawaii. Loan-to-value ratios on these real estate loans generally do not exceed 80% at the time of origination. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company sold mortgage loans held for sale with principal balances of $10.1 million and $10.0 million, respectively, and recognized gains of $89,000 and $72,000, respectively. The Company had one loan held for sale for $470,000 at December 31, 2019 and one loan held for sale for $309,000 at December 31, 2018. During 2019, the Company securitized fixed-rate first mortgage loans with a book value of $36.8 milion and received mortgage-backed securities with a fair market value of $37.9 million. The Company retained the servicing of these loans and recorded mortgage servicing assets with a fair market value of $344,000. A net gain of $1.5 million was recognized on the securitization transactions as the fair value of the mortgage-backed securities exceeded the amortized cost of the mortgage loans. The Company serviced loans for others with principal balances of $65.1 million and $30.3 million at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Of these amounts, $37.8 million and $1.5 million of loan balances relate to securitizations for which the Company continues to hold the related mortgage-backed securities at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The amount of contractually specified servicing fees earned was $114,000 and $88,000 for 2019 and 2018, respectively. The fees are reported in service fees on loan and deposit accounts in the Consolidated Statements of Income. In the normal course of business, the Company has made loans to certain directors and executive officers under terms which management believes are consistent with the Company’s general lending policies. Loans to directors and executive officers amounted to $661,000 at December 31, 2019 and $850,000 at December 31, 2018. |
