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. Impaired loans with no specific allowance decreased by $20.2 million from $39.7 million at September 30, 2021 to $19.5 million at June 30, 2022, due primarily to three commercial real estate loans totaling $18.9 million being sold during the December 31, 2021 period and a $2.2 million partial charge down of one commercial and industrial loan during the March 31, 2022 period. The following table presents impaired loans in the portfolio by class, segregated by those for which a specific allowance was required and those for which a specific allowance was not necessary, as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021: Impaired Loans with Specific Allowance Impaired Loans with No Specific Allowance Total Impaired Loans Recorded Investment Related Allowance Recorded Investment Recorded Investment Unpaid Principal Balance (In thousands) June 30, 2022 Residential mortgage $ 478 $ 56 $ 2,368 $ 2,847 $ 3,050 Commercial: Commercial real estate - - 13,777 13,777 15,476 Farmland - - 2,221 2,221 2,221 Commercial and industrial - - 968 968 3,642 Consumer: Home equity lines of credit - - 20 20 26 Second mortgages 58 17 182 240 294 Total impaired loans $ 536 $ 73 $ 19,536 $ 20,073 $ 24,709 September 30, 2021 Residential mortgage $ - $ - $ 2,594 $ 2,594 $ 2,766 Commercial: Commercial real estate 286 18 33,543 33,829 33,368 Farmland 2,254 2,254 2,254 Commercial and industrial 2,517 1,488 630 3,147 3,584 Consumer: Home equity lines of credit - - 23 23 28 Second mortgages 102 38 696 798 874 Total impaired loans $ 2,905 $ 1,544 $ 39,740 $ 42,645 $ 42,874 The following table presents the average recorded investment in impaired loans in the loan portfolio and related interest income recognized for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021: Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 Nine Months Ended June 30, 2022 Average Impaired Loans Interest Income Recognized on Impaired Loans Average Impaired Loans Interest Income Recognized on Impaired Loans (In thousands) Residential mortgage $ 2,234 $ 29 $ 2,472 $ 95 Commercial: Commercial real estate 13,405 22 13,094 67 Farmland 2,226 20 2,236 59 Commercial and industrial 973 6 1,705 16 Consumer: Home equity lines of credit 21 - 17 - Second mortgages 863 1 816 3 Total $ 19,722 $ 78 $ 20,340 $ 240 Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 Nine Months Ended June 30, 2021 Average Impaired Loans Interest Income Recognized on Impaired Loans Average Impaired Loans Interest Income Recognized on Impaired Loans (In thousands) Residential mortgage $ 3,280 $ 22 $ 3,383 $ 56 Commercial: Commercial real estate 38,243 153 32,701 403 Farmland 2,265 31 1,766 50 Commercial and industrial 1,398 5 709 12 Consumer: Home equity lines of credit 24 - 51 - Second mortgages 776 2 711 5 Total $ 45,986 $ 213 $ 39,321 $ 526 The following table presents the classes of the loan portfolio categorized as pass, special mention, substandard and doubtful within the Company’s internal risk rating system as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021: Pass Special Mention Substandard Doubtful Total (In thousands) June 30, 2022: Residential mortgage $ 174,073 $ - $ 2,426 $ - $ 176,499 Construction and Development: Residential and commercial 20,459 - - - 20,459 Land 2,054 - - - 2,054 Commercial: Commercial real estate 364,341 42,738 704 - 407,783 Farmland 13,127 - 2,221 - 15,348 Multi-family 54,879 - - - 54,879 Commercial and industrial 98,657 - 5,847 - 104,504 Other 13,954 - - - 13,954 Consumer: Home equity lines of credit 12,340 - 92 - 12,432 Second mortgages 4,133 60 412 - 4,605 Other 2,183 - - - 2,183 Total $ 760,200 $ 42,798 $ 11,702 $ - $ 814,700 Pass Special Mention Substandard Doubtful Total (In thousands) September 30, 2021: Residential mortgage $ 195,658 $ - $ 3,052 $ - $ 198,710 Construction and Development: Residential and commercial 61,492 - - - 61,492 Land 2,204 - - - 2,204 Commercial: Commercial real estate 376,721 48,705 1,489 - 426,915 Farmland 8,043 - 2,254 - 10,297 Multi-family 57,052 9,280 - - 66,332 Commercial and industrial 106,910 - 8,336 - 115,246 Other 10,954 - - - 10,954 Consumer: Home equity lines of credit 13,390 - 101 - 13,491 Second mortgages 4,908 68 908 - 5,884 Other 2,299 - - - 2,299 Total $ 839,631 $ 58,053 $ 16,140 $ - $ 913,824 The following table presents loans that are no longer accruing interest as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, by portfolio class: June 30, 2022 September 30, 2021 (In thousands) Non-accrual loans: Residential mortgage $ 599 $ 879 Commercial: Commercial and industrial 280 2,517 Consumer: Home equity lines of credit 21 23 Second mortgages 175 278 Total non-accrual loans $ 1,075 $ 3,697 Under the Bank’s loan policy, once a loan has been placed on non-accrual status, we do not resume interest accruals until the loan has been brought current and has maintained a current payment status for not less than six consecutive months. Total non-accrual loans exclude loans held-for-sale. Non-accrual loans totaled $1.1 million at June 30, 2022, and $3.7 million at September 30, 2021. The decrease in non-accrual loans was primarily due a partial charge down of $2.2 million one commercial and industrial loan during the nine months ended June 30, 2022. Interest income that would have been recognized on non-accrual loans had they been current in accordance with their original terms was approximately $29,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and $29,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022. Interest income that would have been recognized on non-accrual loans had they been current in accordance with their original terms was approximately $300,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and $845,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2021. At June 30, 2022 there were three loans for $401,000 that were past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest. At September 30, 2021, there were no loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest. Management monitors the performance and credit quality of the loan portfolio by analyzing the age of the loans in the loan 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. The following table presents the classes of the loan portfolio categorized by the following aging categories as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021 : Current 30-59 Days Past Due 60-89 Days Past Due 90 Days and More Past Due Total Past Due Total Loans Receivable Loans Receivable > 90 Days and Accruing (In thousands) June 30, 2022: Residential mortgage $ 172,846 $ 3,221 $ 72 $ 359 $ 3,652 $ 176,499 $ 172 Construction and Development: Residential and commercial 20,459 - - - - 20,459 - Land 2,054 - - - - 2,054 - Commercial: Commercial real estate 407,418 165 - 200 365 407,783 200 Farmland 15,348 - - - - 15,348 - Multi-family 54,879 - - - - 54,879 - Commercial and industrial 104,129 - 95 280 375 104,504 - Other 13,955 - - - - 13,954 - Consumer: Home equity lines of credit 12,432 - - - - 12,432 - Second mortgages 4,497 72 - 37 109 4,605 29 Other 2,177 5 - - 5 2,183 - Total $ 810,194 $ 3,463 $ 167 $ 876 $ 4,506 $ 814,700 $ 401 Current 30-59 Days Past Due 60-89 Days Past Due 90 Days and More Past Due Total Past Due Total Loans Receivable Loans Receivable > 90 Days and Accruing (In thousands) September 30, 2021: Residential mortgage $ 197,062 $ 796 $ 241 $ 611 $ 1,648 $ 198,710 $ - Construction and Development: Residential and commercial 61,492 - - - - 61,492 - Land 2,204 - - - - 2,204 - Commercial: Commercial real estate 426,915 - - - - 426,915 - Farmland 10,297 - - - - 10,297 - Multi-family 66,332 - - - - 66,332 - Commercial and industrial 115,246 - - - - 115,246 - Other 10,954 - - - - 10,954 - Consumer: Home equity lines of credit 13,394 97 - - 97 13,491 - Second mortgages 5,697 4 83 100 187 5,884 - Other 2,296 3 - - 3 2,299 - Total $ 911,889 $ 900 $ 324 $ 711 $ 1,935 $ 913,824 $ - Restructured loans deemed to be Troubled debt restructures (“TDRs”) are typically the result of an extension of the loan maturity date or a reduction of the interest rate of the loan to a rate that is below market, a combination of rate and maturity extension, or by other means, including covenant modifications, forbearance and other concessions. 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 22 and 26 loans classified as TDRs at June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively, with an aggregate outstanding balance of $6.2 million and $18.2 million, respectively. At June 30, 2022, these loans were also classified as impaired. The decrease is primarily related to two TDR commercial real estate loans totaling $11.4 million that were sold during the December 31, 2021 period, 19 of the TDR loans continue to perform under the restructured terms through June 30, 2022 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.
