The Company utilizes a risk grading matrix to assign a risk grade to its real estate and commercial business loans. Loans are graded on a scale of 1 to 10, with loans in risk grades 1 to 6 considered “Pass” and loans in risk grades 7 to 10 are reported as classified loans in the Company’s allowance for loan loss analysis. A description of the 10 risk grades is as follows: • Grades 1 and 2 - These grades include loans to very high quality borrowers with excellent or desirable business credit. • Grade 3 - This grade includes loans to borrowers of good business credit with moderate risk. • Grades 4 and 5 - These grades include “Pass” grade loans to borrowers of average credit quality and risk. • Grade 6 - This grade includes loans on management’s “Watch” list and is intended to be utilized on a temporary basis for “Pass” grade borrowers where frequent and thorough monitoring is required due to credit weaknesses and where significant risk-modifying action is anticipated in the near term. • Grade 7 - This grade is for “Other Assets Especially Mentioned” (“OAEM”) in accordance with regulatory guidelines and includes borrowers where performance is poor or significantly less than expected. • Grade 8 - This grade includes “Substandard” loans in accordance with regulatory guidelines which represent an unacceptable business credit where a loss is possible if loan weakness is not corrected. • Grade 9 - This grade includes “Doubtful” loans in accordance with regulatory guidelines where a loss is highly probable. • Grade 10 - This grade includes “Loss” loans in accordance with regulatory guidelines for which total loss is expected and when identified are charged off. Consumer, Home Equity and One-to-Four-Family Real Estate Loans Homogeneous loans are risk rated based upon the FDIC’s Uniform Retail Credit Classification and Account Management Policy. Loans classified under this policy at the Company are consumer loans which include indirect home improvement, solar, marine, other consumer, and one-to-four-family first and second liens. Under the Uniform Retail Credit Classification Policy, loans that are current or less than 90 days past due are graded “Pass” and risk rated “4” or “5” internally. Loans that are past due more than 90 days are classified “Substandard” and risk rated “8” internally until the loan has demonstrated consistent performance, typically six months of contractual payments. Closed-end loans that are 120 days past due and open-end loans that are 180 days past due are charged off based on the value of the collateral less cost to sell.

The loan terms which have been modified or restructured due to a borrower’s financial difficulty include but are not limited to: a reduction in the stated interest rate; an extension of the maturity at an interest rate below current market; a reduction in the face amount of the debt; a reduction in the accrued interest; or re-aging, extensions, deferrals and renewals. TDR loans are considered impaired loans and are individually evaluated for impairment. TDR loans can be classified as either accrual or non-accrual. TDR loans are classified as non-performing loans unless they have been performing in accordance with their modified terms for a period of at least six months in which case they are placed on accrual status. The Company had one TDR loan on accrual and included in impaired loans at both March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, with a balance of $ 56,000 and $ 57,000 , respectively, which was a one-to-four-family loan. The Company had no commitments to lend additional funds on this TDR loan at March 31, 2017. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 there were no TDR loans that were modified in the previous 12 months that subsequently defaulted in the reporting period. There was no loans held for investment property in the process of foreclosure at March 31, 2017. At December 31, 2016, there was a $ 43,000 mortgage loan collateralized by residential real estate property in the process of foreclosure. |
