We established additional loan loss provisions in 2020 because of these loan payment deferrals and the higher unemployment rate that occurred because of the COVID-19 pandemic. ā 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. ā Management considers the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2020 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. ā The table below presents the balance in the allowance for loan losses and the recorded investment in loans by portfolio segment and based on impairment method: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Construction, Home Commercial Equity and Other Loans and Residential Mortgage Lines of Consumer (Dollars in thousands) Mortgage Loans Credit and Other Unallocated Totals December 31, 2020: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Allowance for loan losses: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Ending allowance balance: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Individually evaluated for impairment ā $ ā ā $ ā ā $ ā ā $ ā ā $ ā ā $ ā ā Collectively evaluated for impairment ā 3,102 ā 406 ā 1 ā 146 ā 607 ā 4,262 ā Total ending allowance balance ā $ 3,102 ā $ 406 ā $ 1 ā $ 146 ā $ 607 ā $ 4,262 ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Loans: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Ending loan balance: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Individually evaluated for impairment ā $ 4,947 ā $ ā ā $ 23 ā $ ā ā $ ā ā $ 4,970 ā Collectively evaluated for impairment ā 1,367,576 ā 19,024 ā 9,353 ā 10,334 ā ā ā 1,406,287 ā Total ending loan balance ā $ 1,372,523 ā $ 19,024 ā $ 9,376 ā $ 10,334 ā $ ā ā $ 1,411,257 ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā December 31, 2019: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Allowance for loan losses: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Ending allowance balance: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Individually evaluated for impairment ā $ ā ā $ ā ā $ ā ā $ ā ā $ ā ā $ ā ā Collectively evaluated for impairment ā 1,741 ā 511 ā 1 ā 54 ā 405 ā 2,712 ā Total ending allowance balance ā $ 1,741 ā $ 511 ā $ 1 ā $ 54 ā $ 405 ā $ 2,712 ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Loans: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Ending loan balance: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Individually evaluated for impairment ā $ 1,224 ā $ ā ā $ 89 ā $ ā ā $ ā ā $ 1,313 ā Collectively evaluated for impairment ā 1,543,125 ā 23,326 ā 9,997 ā 9,735 ā ā ā 1,586,183 ā Total ending loan balance ā $ 1,544,349 ā $ 23,326 ā $ 10,086 ā $ 9,735 ā $ ā ā $ 1,587,496 ā ā The table below presents the balance of impaired loans individually evaluated for impairment by class of loans: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Unpaid Recorded Principal (Dollars in thousands) Investment Balance December 31, 2020: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā With no related allowance recorded: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā One- to four-family residential mortgages ā $ 4,947 ā $ 5,425 ā Home equity loans and lines of credit ā 23 ā 32 ā Total ā $ 4,970 ā $ 5,457 ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā December 31, 2019: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā With no related allowance recorded: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā One- to four-family residential mortgages ā $ 1,224 ā $ 1,615 ā Home equity loans and lines of credit ā ā 89 ā ā 178 ā Total ā $ 1,313 ā $ 1,793 ā ā ā The table below presents the average recorded investment and interest income recognized on impaired loans by class of loans: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Average Recorded Interest Income (Dollars in thousands) Investment Recognized 2020: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā With no related allowance recorded: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā One- to four-family residential mortgages ā $ 5,012 ā $ 33 ā Home equity loans and lines of credit ā 24 ā ā ā Total ā $ 5,036 ā $ 33 ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā 2019: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā With no related allowance recorded: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā One- to four-family residential mortgages ā $ 1,272 ā $ 34 ā Home equity loans and lines of credit ā 98 ā ā ā Total ā $ 1,370 ā $ 34 ā ā There were no loans individually evaluated for impairment with a related allowance for loan loss as of December 31, 2020 or 2019.

When a mortgage loan becomes seriously delinquent ( 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 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. ā The Company had 12 nonaccrual loans with a book value of $4.4 million at December 31, 2020 and six nonaccrual loans with a book value of $736,000 as of December 31, 2019. The Company collected interest on nonaccrual loans of during 2020 and 2019, 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 during 2020 and 2019, respectively, had the loans been accruing interest. The Company did not have any loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest as of December 31, 2020. At December 31, 2019, the Company had ā There were no loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring during the year ended December 31, 2020 or 2019. There were no new troubled debt restructurings within the 12 months ended December 31, 2020 that subsequently defaulted. See below for a description on how loan modifications are treated under the CARES Act and Interagency Statements issued by bank regulators in 2020. ā The table below summarizes troubled debt restucturings by class of loans: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā Number of Accrual Number of Nonaccrual ā (Dollars in thousands) Loans Status Loans Status Total December 31, 2020: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā One- to four-family residential mortgages ā 3 ā $ 565 ā ā 2 ā $ 467 ā $ 1,032 Total ā 3 ā $ 565 ā ā 2 ā $ 467 ā $ 1,032 ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā December 31, 2019: ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā One- to four-family residential mortgages ā 3 ā $ 577 ā ā 2 ā $ 525 ā $ 1,102 Home equity loans and lines of credit ā ā ā ā ā 1 ā 64 ā 64 Total ā 3 ā $ 577 ā ā 3 ā $ 589 ā $ 1,166 ā There were no delinquent restructured loans at December 31, 2020 or December 31, 2019. 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, 2020, we have ā The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was passed by Congress and signed into law by the President on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act provides relief to financial institutions from categorizing eligible loan modifications as troubled debt restructurings over the remaining life of the modified loan. Eligible loan modifications under the CARES Act must be related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the borrower must not have been more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019. Loan modifications under the CARES Act must be executed during the period from March 1, 2020 to the earlier of December 31, 2020 or 60 days after the end of the national emergency. On December 21, 2020, the President signed legislation which extended the troubled debt restructuring relief provisions of the CARES Act to January 1, 2022. Banking regulators issued similar guidance, which also clarified that a COVID-19 loan modification should not be considered a troubled debt restructuring if the borrower was not more than 30 days past due on payments at the time the loan modification program was implemented and the modification is considered short-term (not to exceed six months). The Company will be using the provisions of the CARES Act and the Interagency Statements to account for the eligible loans receiving modifications. ā The Company has granted loan payment deferrals to borrowers who have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. At December 31, 2020, the Company granted, and had outstanding, loan payment deferrals on $130.8 million of loans, which represent 9.3% of total loans receivable. $126.3 million of these loan payment deferrals consist of one- to four-family residential mortgage loans, which represent 9.0% of the total loans receivable. The Company believes these loans are currently well secured as the ratio of the current loan balance to the current tax- assessed value of the property securing these mortgage loans averages 54.9%. One- to four-family residential mortgage loans represent 96.7% of the Companyās total loan portfolio balance. All of the Companyās residential mortgage loans are secured by real estate in Hawaii. The Company has also granted loan payment deferrals of $4.5 million on other non-residential mortgage loans, which represent 0.3% of the total balance of loans receivable. The loans on which the Company has granted loan payment deferrals are included in the ALLL calculation. Loans performing under a loan payment deferral agreement are not contractually past due and are excluded from the past due statistics above. ā The Company had no real estate owned as of December 31, 2020 or 2019. There were two one- to four-family residential mortgage loans totaling $251,000 in the process of foreclosure as of December 31, 2020. There were loans in the process of foreclosure at December 31, 2019. ā 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. ā During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company sold mortgage loans held for sale with principal balances of $43.8 million and $10.1 million, respectively, and recognized gains of $1.2 million and $89,000 , respectively. The Company had ā During 2020 and 2019, the Company securitized fixed-rate first mortgage loans with a book value of $9.4 million and $36.8 million, respectively, and received mortgage-backed securities with a fair market value of $9.8 million and $37.9 million, respectively. During 2020 and 2019, the Company retained the servicing of these loans and recorded mortgage servicing assets with a fair market value of ā The Company serviced loans for others with principal balances of $56.7 million and $65.1 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Of these amounts, million of loan balances relate to securitizations for which the Company continues to hold the related mortgage-backed securities at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The amount of contractually specified servicing fees earned was for 2020 and 2019, respectively. The fees are reported in service fees on loan and deposit accounts in the Consolidated Statements of Income. ā 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 Companyās general lending policies.
