The estimation of loan losses is not precise; the range of factors considered is wide and is significantly dependent upon management’s judgment, including the outlook and potential changes in the economic environment. Any unallocated portion of the ALLL in conjunction with the quarterly review and changes to the qualitative factors to adjust for the risk due to current economic conditions reflects management’s estimate of probable inherent but undetected losses within the portfolio due to uncertainties in economic conditions, regulatory requirements, delays in obtaining information, including unfavorable information about a borrower’s financial condition, the difficulty in identifying triggering events that correlate perfectly to subsequent loss rates, and risk factors that have not yet manifested themselves in loss allocation factors. . The decrease in impaired loans with no specific allowance from $29.4 million at September 30, 2020 to $25.9 million at March 31, 2021, is primarily due to the removal of one commercial real estate loan of approximately $6.5 million, offset by the additions of one commercial farmland loan of approximately $2.3 million and one commercial real estate loan of approximately $539,000.

Interest income that would have been recognized on non-accrual loans had they been current in accordance with their original terms was approximately $407,000 and $545,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2021, respectively, and approximately $3,000 and $4,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2020, respectively. At March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2020, there were approximately $765,000 and Management monitors the performance and credit quality of the loan portfolio by analyzing the age of the portfolio and categorizing each loan as “current”, meaning payment is received from a borrower by the scheduled due date, or by the length of time a scheduled payment is past due.

However, the Bank generally restructures loans by modifying the payment structure to require payments of interest only for a specified period or by reducing the actual interest rate. Once a loan becomes a TDR, it will continue to be reported as a TDR during the term of the restructuring. The Company had 28 and 26 loans classified as TDRs at March 31, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively, with an aggregate outstanding balance of $24.2 million and $21.7 million, respectively. At March 31, 2021, these loans were also classified as impaired. 21 of the TDR loans continue to perform under the restructured terms through March 31, 2021 and the Company continued to accrue interest on such loans through such date. Loans that have been classified as TDRs have modified payment terms and in some cases modified interest rates from the original agreements, which allow the borrowers, who were experiencing financial difficulty, to make interest only payments for a period of time in order to relieve some of their overall cash flow burden. Some loan modifications classified as TDRs may not ultimately result in the full collection of principal and interest, as modified, and could result in potential incremental losses. These potential incremental losses have been factored into our overall estimate of the ALLL. The level of any defaults will likely be affected by future economic conditions. A default on a TDR loan for purposes of this disclosure occurs when the borrower is 90 days past due or a foreclosure or repossession of the applicable collateral has occurred. TDRs may arise in cases where, due to financial difficulties experienced by the borrower, the Company obtains through physical possession one or more collateral assets in satisfaction of all or part of an existing credit. Once possession is obtained, the Company reclassifies the appropriate portion of the remaining balance of the credit from loans to other real estate owned (“OREO”), which is included within other assets in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
