Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
FAIR VALUE | FAIR VALUE |
|
Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in a sales transaction on the dates indicated. The estimated fair value amounts have been measured as of the respective quarter ends, and have not been reevaluated or updated for purposes of these consolidated financial statements subsequent to those respective dates. As such, the estimated fair values of these financial instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than the amounts reported at each reporting date. |
|
NOTE 8 - FAIR VALUE (CONTINUED) |
|
The Company determines the fair value of financial instruments using three levels of input: |
|
Level 1—Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date. |
|
Level 2—Inputs are other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. |
|
Level 3—Valuations are observed from unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. |
|
The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014: |
|
Cash and Cash Equivalents |
|
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair value. |
|
Investment and Mortgage Related Securities—Available-for-Sale and Held-to-Maturity |
|
Fair values for investment securities and mortgage related securities are obtained from one external pricing service ("primary pricing service") as the provider of pricing on the investment portfolio on a quarterly basis. We generally obtain one quote per investment security. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable securities. If quoted market prices are not available for comparable securities, fair value is based on quoted bids for the security or comparable securities. We review the estimates of fair value provided by the primary pricing service to determine if they are representative of fair value based upon our general knowledge of market conditions and relative changes in interest rates and the credit environment. The Company made no adjustments to the values obtained from the primary pricing service. |
|
Loans Receivable, Net |
|
To determine the fair values of loans that are not impaired, we employ discounted cash flow analyses that use interest rates and terms similar to those currently being offered to borrowers. We do not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. We record fair value adjustments to impaired loans on a nonrecurring basis to reflect full and partial charge-offs due to impairment. For impaired loans, we use a variety of techniques to measure fair value, such as using the current appraised value of the collateral, agreements of sale, discounting the contractual cash flows, and analyzing market data that we may adjust due to specific characteristics of the loan or collateral. |
|
FHLB Stock |
|
The fair value of the FHLB stock is assumed to equal its cost, since the stock is nonmarketable but redeemable at its par value. |
|
Mortgage Servicing Rights |
|
The fair value of the MSRs was determined using a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds and discount rates. |
|
Accrued Interest Receivable and Accrued Interest Payable |
|
The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable approximates fair value. |
|
Deposit Liabilities |
|
Fair values for demand deposits (including NOW accounts), savings and club accounts and money market deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. Fair values of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit, including brokered deposits, are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on similar instruments with similar maturities. |
NOTE 8 - FAIR VALUE (CONTINUED) |
|
Short-term Borrowings, FHLB Advances and Other Borrowed Funds |
|
Fair values of short-term borrowings, FHLB advances and other borrowed funds are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on rates currently available to the Bank for advances with similar terms and remaining maturities. |
|
Derivative Contracts |
|
The fair values of derivative contracts are based upon the estimated amount the Company would receive or pay to terminate the contracts or agreements, taking into account underlying interest rates, creditworthiness of underlying customers for credit derivatives and, when appropriate, the creditworthiness of the counterparties. |
|
The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were as follows: |

The following financial instruments were classified as Level 3 and carried at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2015: |
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
• | Two commercial loans, since lending credit risk is not an observable input for these loans (see interest rate swap discussion in Note 4). The unrealized gain on the two loans was $173,000 at March 31, 2015 compared to $152,000 at December 31, 2014. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
• | Credit derivatives are valued based on creditworthiness of the underlying borrower which is a significant unobservable input. The liability resulting from credit derivatives was $8,000 and $12,000 at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

|
The following measures were made on a non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014: |
|
Loans, which were partially charged off at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The loans’ fair values are based on Level 3 inputs, which are either an appraised value or a sales agreement, less costs to sell. These amounts do not include fully charged-off loans, because we carry fully charged-off loans at zero on our balance sheet. |
|
MSRs, the fair value of which was determined using a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds and discount rates. |
|
Other real estate owned, for which we used Level 3 inputs, which consist of appraisals, agreements of sale or letters of intent. |
