COASTWAY BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(1) Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
General information
Coastway Bancorp, Inc., a Maryland chartered stock corporation (“Company” or “Corporation”), was formed to serve as the holding company for Coastway Community Bank. Coastway Community Bank (the “Bank”) is a Rhode Island-chartered savings bank. The Bank provides a variety of financial services to individuals and small businesses throughout Rhode Island. Its primary deposit products are savings, demand, money market and term certificate accounts and its primary lending products are one-to four-family residential mortgage loans, home equity loans and lines of credit, commercial real estate and SBA loans.
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its subsidiary. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Corporation presented herein have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by GAAP for a complete set of financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) and disclosures necessary for the fair presentation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The accompanying unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2015, included in the Corporation’s annual report on Form 10-K.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of deferred tax assets and the valuation of loans held for sale, mortgage banking derivatives and commitments to sell fixed-rate residential mortgages.
Stock-Based Compensation
Compensation cost is recognized for stock options and restricted stock awards issued to employees based on the fair value of these awards at the grant date. A Black-Scholes model is utilized to estimate the fair value of stock options, while the market price of the Corporation’s stock at the grant date is utilized for restricted stock awards.
Compensation cost is recognized over the required service period, generally defined as the vesting period. For awards with graded vesting, compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
As an “emerging growth company” as defined in Title 1 of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act, the Corporation has elected to use the extended transition period to delay the adoption of new or reissued accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to private companies. As of September 30, 2016, there is no significant difference in the comparability of the financial statements as a result of this extended transition period.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (Subtopic 825-10), which addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The ASU requires equity instruments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or that result in consolidations of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. However, an entity may choose to measure an equity investment that does not have a readily determinable fair value at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions. For public business entities, the standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, including emerging growth companies, the standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within fiscal periods after December 15, 2019. We do not expect a significant impact upon adoption on January 1, 2019.
COASTWAY BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, which will require organizations that lease assets — referred to as “lessees” — to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. Under the new guidance, a lessee will be required to recognize right to use assets and lease liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. However, unlike current Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) — which requires only capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet — the new ASU will require both types of leases to be recognized on the balance sheet.
The accounting by organizations that own the assets leased by the lessee — also known as lessor accounting — will remain largely unchanged from current GAAP. However, the ASU contains some targeted improvements that are intended to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model. The ASU on leases will take effect for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. For all other organizations, including emerging growth companies, the ASU on leases will take effect for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this standard, including identifying contracts that are, or contain, leases, as the lease identification guidance in the new standard is different than the current standard.
On March 30, 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2016-09, which is intended to improve the accounting for employee share-based payments. The ASU affects all organizations that issue share-based payment awards to their employees. The ASU, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including:
· The income tax consequences
· Classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and
· Classification on the statement of cash flows.
For public companies, the amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. For private companies and emerging growth companies, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for any organization in any interim or annual period. This standard will be effective for the Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2018. We do not anticipate a material impact as a result of adopting this standard as share-based awards were first granted during the first quarter of 2016.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses, that will significantly change how banks measure and recognize credit impairment for many financial assets from an incurred loss methodology to a current expected credit loss model. The current expected credit loss model will require companies to immediately recognize an estimate of credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of the financial assets that are in the scope of the standard. The FASB also made targeted amendments to the current impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. The ASU is effective for public business entities that are SEC filers, for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and for other companies, including emerging growth companies, for interim and annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. All entities may early adopt the standard for annual and interim periods in fiscal years after December 15, 2018. The standard will be effective for the Corporation on January 1, 2021. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this standard, including different methodologies that may be employed to estimate credit losses, such as loss rate methods, component loss methods, and qualitative factors, as well as additional data gathering that will be needed to adopt the standard. The standard will add new disclosures related to factors that influenced management’s estimate, including current expected credit losses, the changes in those factors, and reasons for the changes as well as the method applied to revert to historical credit loss experience.
(2) Certificates of Deposit
At September 30, 2016, a certificate of deposit totaling $3.0 million with an interest rate of 0.65% matures in December 2016. Certificates of deposit are carried at cost which approximates fair value.

Residential one- to four-family loans of $241.9 million at September 30, 2016 and $208.8 million at December 31, 2015 included purchased loans which were individually underwritten based on the Bank’s credit standards, totaling $66.3 million and $64.1 million, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Bank purchased $6.0 million and $26.2 million of loans at a cost of $6.1 million and $26.5 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Bank purchased $15.0 million and $43.7 million of loans at a cost of $15.2 million and $44.2 million, respectively. The loans purchased from third parties are located in New England, primarily Massachusetts.
Loan Segments
One-to four-family residential real estate and home equity — Loans in these segments are collateralized by owner-occupied residential real estate and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower. The Bank generally has first liens on one-to four-family residential real estate loans and first or second liens on property securing home equity loans and equity lines-of-credit. Jumbo one- to four-family loans generally have maximum loan-to-value ratios of 95%. Loan-to-value ratios of one- to four-family loans without private mortgage insurance may be made with loan-to-value ratios up to 95%. Home equity loans and lines of credit may be underwritten with a loan-to-value ratio up to 80%. The overall health of the economy, including unemployment rates and housing prices, will have an effect on the credit quality in these segments.
Commercial — Commercial loan segments include commercial real estate, commercial and industrial loans for businesses and construction financing for businesses/properties located principally in Rhode Island. For commercial real estate loans, the underlying cash flows generated by the properties are adversely impacted by a downturn in the economy as evidenced by increased vacancy rates, which in turn, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment. Non-real estate commercial loans are made to businesses and are generally secured by assets of the business. Repayment is expected from the cash flows of the business. Commercial construction generally represent loans to finance construction of retail and office space. Commercial loans also include loans made under the SBA 504 program which is an economic development program that finances the expansion of small businesses. The Bank generally provides 50% of the projected costs, and the loan is secured by a first lien on the commercial property. The SBA does not provide a guarantee on loans made under the SBA 504 program. A weakened economy, and resultant decreased consumer spending, will have an effect on the credit quality in this segment. Management monitors the cash flows of these loans.

Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
SBA — Loans in this segment include commercial loans underwritten using SBA guidelines for the SBA’s 7(a) program and include both guaranteed and unguaranteed portions of the same loans. Currently, under the SBA 7(a) program, loans may qualify for guarantees up to 85% of principal and accrued interest up to a maximum SBA guarantee of $3.75 million per borrower and related entities. The Bank does not treat the SBA guarantee as a substitute for a borrower meeting reasonable credit standards. SBA guarantees are generally sought on loans that exhibit minimum capital levels, a short time in business, lower collateral coverage or maximum loan terms beyond the Bank’s normal underwriting criteria. For a number of SBA loans, the Bank has sold portions of certain loans and retains the unguaranteed portion while continuing to service the entire loan. The guaranteed portion of SBA loans in the Bank’s portfolio is not allocated a general reserve because the Bank has not experienced losses on such loans and management expects the guarantees will be effective, if necessary. Guaranteed portions of SBA loans totaled $26.8 million and $24.8 million at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.
Consumer — This segment includes unsecured and vehicle loans and repayment is dependent on the credit quality of the individual borrower. Economic trends determined by unemployment rates and other key economic indicators are closely correlated to the credit quality of these loans.
Allowance for Loan Losses
Allowance for Loan Loss Methodology
The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. For impaired loans that are deemed collateral dependent, the recorded balance of the loan is reduced by a charge-off to bring the loan balance to the fair value of the collateral net of estimated selling costs.
The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The allowance consists of general and specific components as described below.
The general component of the allowance for loan losses is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors stratified by loan segments. Management uses a ten year historical loss period to capture relevant loss data for each loan segment. This historical loss factor is adjusted for the following qualitative factors: levels/trends in delinquencies; charge-off trends over the past three year period; weighted average risk ratings; loan concentrations; management’s assessment of internal factors; and management’s assessment of external factors such as interest rates, real estate markets and local and national economic factors. There were no changes in the Bank’s methodology pertaining to the general component of the allowance for loan losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015.
The Corporation evaluates the need for a specific allowance when loans are determined to be impaired. Loss is measured by determining the present value of expected future cash flows or, for collateral-dependent loans, the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling expenses. Factors in identifying a specific problem loan include: (1) the strength of the customer’s personal or business cash flows; (2) the availability of other sources of repayment; (3) the amount due or past due; (4) the type and value of collateral; (5) the strength of the collateral position; (6) the estimated cost to sell the collateral; and (7) the borrower’s effort to cure the delinquency. In addition, for loans secured by real estate, the Corporation considers the extent of any past due and unpaid property taxes applicable to the property serving as collateral on the mortgage.
Credit Quality Indicators
Commercial and SBA loans are risk rated based on key factors such as management ability, financial condition, debt repayment ability, collateral, industry conditions and loan structure. Risk ratings 1 through 5 are considered “pass” rated, risk rating 5.5 is considered “watch list”, risk rating 6 is considered “special mention”, while risk ratings 7, 8 and 9 are considered “classified” ratings.
Risk Ratings 1-5: Loans in this category are pass rated loans with low to average risk.
Risk rating 5.5 — Watch List: loans in this category exhibit the characteristics associated with 5 risk-rated loans, but possess negative factors that warrant increased oversight yet do not warrant a negative risk rating. Factors may include short-term negative operating trends, temporary liquidity shortfalls, modest delinquency, missing or incomplete financial information, or negative balance sheet trends.
COASTWAY BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Risk Rating 6 — Special Mention: these loans have potential weaknesses and require management’s close attention. If these weaknesses are not addressed, they may weaken the prospects for repayment at a future date. Special mention assets do not expose the institution to sufficient risk to warrant a classified rating.
Risk Rating 7 — Substandard: loans in this category are inadequately protected by the current financial condition and repayment ability of the borrower or pledged collateral, if any. These assets have a well-defined weakness(es) that jeopardizes the repayment of the debt in full, and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Risk Rating 8 — Doubtful: loans in this category have all the weaknesses of those classified substandard. In addition, it is highly unlikely that a doubtful asset can be collected or liquidated in full. The possibility of loss is extremely high. However, because of certain important and reasonably specific pending factors, which may work to strengthen the asset, its classification as a loss is deferred until the asset’s status can be better determined.
Risk Rating 9 — Loss: loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that they are no longer considered collectible. This classification does not mean that the asset has no recovery or salvage value. However, it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off the asset even though partial recovery may occur in the future.
On an annual basis, or more often if needed, the Bank formally reviews the ratings on commercial and SBA loans over $250,000. On an annual basis, the Bank engages an independent third-party to review a significant portion of loans within these segments. Management uses the results of these reviews as part of its annual review of its control process related to loan ratings. Credit quality for residential real estate mortgage and consumer loans is determined by monitoring loan payment history and on-going communications with borrowers, and are not risk graded. Non-performing homogenous loans are individually evaluated for impairment.
The following table presents the credit risk profile by internally assigned risk rating category at the dates indicated:

Past Due and Non-Accrual Loans
The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days past due unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on non-accrual at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. All interest accrued, but not collected for loans that are placed on non-accrual, is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
The following table presents past due loans as of the dates indicated.

Impaired Loans
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.
The Bank periodically may agree to modify the contractual terms of loans, such as a reduction in interest rate of the loan for some period of time, an extension of the maturity date or an extension of time to make payments with the delinquent payments added to the end of the loan term. When a loan is modified and a concession is made to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty, the modification is considered a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”). All TDRs are initially classified as impaired. Loans on non-accrual status at the date of modification are initially classified as non-accruing troubled debt restructurings. TDRs may be returned to accrual status after a period of satisfactory payment performance according to the terms of the restructuring, generally six months of current payments.
The following tables set forth the recorded investment in impaired loans and the related specific allowance allocated as of the dates indicated.

Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs)
Loans are designated as a TDR when, as part of an agreement to modify the original contractual terms of the loan, the Bank grants a concession on the terms, that would not otherwise be considered, as a result of financial difficulties of the borrower. Typically, such concessions may consist of a reduction in interest rate to a below market rate, taking into account the credit quality of the note, or a deferment or reduction of payments, principal or interest, which materially alters the Bank’s position or significantly extends the note’s maturity date, such that the present value of cash flows to be received is materially less than those contractually established at the loan’s origination. All loans that are modified are reviewed by the Bank to identify if a TDR has occurred. TDRs are included in the impaired loan category and as such, these loans are individually evaluated for impairment and a specific reserve is assigned for the amount of the estimated credit loss. Total TDR loans, included in impaired loans as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were $10.9 million and $6.6 million, respectively. No additional funds are committed to be advanced in connection with TDR loans. TDR loans on accrual status amounted to $8.5 million and $3.5 million at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

(4) Employee Benefits
Deferred Compensation Supplemental Executive Plan
The Bank maintains a non-qualified deferred compensation supplemental executive retirement plan (“DCSERP”) with a senior executive. The DCSERP allows the executive to invest all or a portion of the deferred compensation in Corporation stock, provided that such stock will only be settled in Corporation stock. The assets invested in bonds which are held in a Rabbi Trust, related to this Plan totaled $1.1 million at September 30, 2016 and $930,000 at December 31, 2015, and are included in other assets at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet. The liability for the benefit obligation reported in accrued expenses and other liabilities totaled $1.1 million at September 30, 2016 and $930,000 at December 31, 2015. Additionally, the Rabbi Trust holds 8,900 shares of Corporation stock at September 30, 2016 which is accounted for at its cost basis of $100,000, which is offset in stockholders’ equity by the benefit obligation of $100,000. Rabbi trust shares are considered outstanding shares for both basic and diluted EPS.
Supplemental Retirement Agreements
The Bank has entered into supplemental retirement agreements (“SERP”) with seven executive officers, which provide for payments upon attaining the retirement age specified in the agreements, generally ages 65-67. The present value of these future payments is accrued over the remaining service or vesting term. Supplemental retirement benefits generally accrue as they are vested; however a termination of employment subsequent to a change in control will result in the vesting of all benefits that would have accrued to the officer’s normal retirement date. During the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, SERP expense totaled $192,000 and $151,000, respectively and for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, SERP expense totaled $575,000 and $453,000 respectively.
Defined Benefit Pension Plan
Pension expense income totaled $5,000 and $5,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $16,000 and $16,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Bank expects to contribute $19,000 during the plan year ending December 31, 2016.
COASTWAY BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Employee Stock Ownership Plan
The Corporation maintains an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) to provide eligible employees the opportunity to own Corporation stock. This plan is a tax-qualified retirement plan for the benefit of all Corporation employees. Contributions are allocated to eligible participants on the basis of compensation, subject to federal tax limits.
The Corporation granted a loan to the ESOP for the purchase of shares of the Corporation’s common stock concurrent with the January 2014 initial public offering. As of September 30, 2016, the ESOP holds 395,543 shares, or 9% of the common stock outstanding on that date. The loan obtained by the ESOP from the Corporation made to purchase the common stock is payable annually over 25 years at the prime rate, as published in The Wall Street Journal, which is currently 3.50% per annum at September 30, 2016. The loan is secured by the shares purchased, which are held in a suspense account for allocation among participants as the loan is repaid. The balance of the loan was $3.7 million at September 30, 2016. Any cash dividends paid on allocated shares will, at the direction of the Corporation, be credited to the participant accounts and invested in the ESOP’s investment fund; be distributed to the participants in proportion with the participants’ stock fund account balance; be distributed to the participants within 90 days of the calendar year in which paid in proportion with the participants’ stock fund account balance; or be used to make payments on the outstanding debt of the ESOP. Cash dividends paid on unallocated shares will be used to repay the outstanding debt of the ESOP then due. If the amount of dividends exceeds the outstanding debt of the ESOP, then, in the sole discretion of the Corporation, cash dividends may be allocated to active participants on a non-discriminatory basis, or be deemed to be general earnings of the ESOP. Shares used as collateral to secure the loan are released and available for allocation to eligible employees as the principal and interest on the loan is paid.
Shares held by the ESOP include the following:
|
| September 30, |
|
Allocated |
| 31,674 |

Committed to be allocated |
| 11,867 |
|
Unallocated |
| 352,393 |
|
|
| 395,543 |
|
The fair value of unallocated shares was approximately $4.8 million at September 30, 2016.
Total compensation expense recognized in connection with the ESOP was $51,000 and $43,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively and was $150,000 and $131,000, for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 respectively.
(5) Other Stock-Based Compensation
On May 21, 2015, the Coastway Bancorp, Inc. stockholders approved the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (“EIP”). Types of awards permitted by the EIP include stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, and performance awards. The number of shares available for issuance under the EIP was 692,885 at December 31, 2015. Stock options under the EIP will generally expire ten years after the date of grant. Unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, awards under the EIP (other than Performance Awards) shall be granted with a vesting rate not exceeding twenty percent per year, with the first installment vesting no earlier than one year after the date of grant. Upon an involuntary termination following a change in control, all stock options, restricted stock awards and units will become fully vested and performance awards will be deemed earned. There were no awards granted under the EIP during the year ended December 31, 2015.
In February 2016, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors authorized the grant of 91,225 options at a strike price of $12.41 and 39,045 shares of restricted stock to directors and certain key senior executives. The options and the restricted stock both vest over a five year period. The $12.41 fair value of the restricted stock is based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. The holders of restricted stock participate fully in rewards of stock ownership of the Company, including voting, and dividend rights when vested. Restricted stock expense for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 was $24,000 and $60,000, respectively. At September 30, 2016, there was $424,000 of unrecognized salary and employee benefits cost related to restricted stock. The grant-date fair value of stock options of $2.59 was estimated using the Black-Scholes Option-Pricing Model. Stock option expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $12,000 and $30,000, respectively. At September 30, 2016, there was $207,000 of unrecognized salary and employee benefits cost related to stock options. The instrinsic value of stock options was $118,000 at September 30, 2016.

(6) Earnings per Common Share and Share Repurchase Plans
Basic earnings per share represents income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. There were no potentially dilutive common stock equivalents as of September 30, 2015. Unallocated ESOP shares are not deemed outstanding for earnings per share calculations.
Earnings per common share have been computed as follows in the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 and the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015:

The incremental shares of common stock totaling 7,112 and 7,376 shares pertaining to outstanding stock options were not considered in computing diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 because they were anti-dilutive. There were no stock options granted for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and as such, there was no impact on dilutive earnings per share.
On January 30, 2015, the Corporation authorized a program to repurchase, from time to time and as market and business conditions warrant, up to 247,499 shares of the Corporation’s common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, 71,659 shares and 80,400 shares were repurchased at a cost of $932,000 and $902,000, respectively. The 71,659 shares repurchased during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 were repurchased from one stockholder at a price of $13.00 per share. On May 19, 2016, the Corporation announced it had completed this first stock repurchase program.
On May 18, 2016, the Company authorized a program to repurchase, from time to time and as business conditions warrant, up to 235,086 shares of the Corporation’s common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, 235,086 shares were repurchased for a cost of $3.1 million. The 235,086 shares were repurchased from one stockholder at a price of $13.00 per share. On June 14, 2016, the Corporation announced it had completed this stock repurchase program. No shares were repurchased during the three months ended September 30, 2016.

(7) Off-Balance Sheets Activities and Derivatives
In the normal course of business, there are outstanding commitments and contingencies which are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Loan Commitments
The Bank is a party to conditional commitments to lend funds in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit which include commercial lines of credit and home equity lines that involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. The Bank’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.
The following financial instruments were outstanding whose contract amounts represent credit risk:

| ||
Unadvanced funds on construction loans |
| 4,882 |
| 7,225 |
| ||
The commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The commitments for lines-of-credit may expire without being drawn upon. Therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit is based upon management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held generally consists of real estate.
Mortgage Banking
At September 30, 2016, the Bank had $36.6 million of interest rate lock commitments to borrowers and loans held for sale of $28.1 million with $60.2 million of forward commitments for the future delivery of residential mortgage loans.

(8) Fair Value Measurements
The Bank uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. The fair value of an asset or liability is the price which a seller would receive in an orderly transaction between market participants (an exit price). Assets and liabilities are placed in a fair value hierarchy based on fair value measurements using three levels of inputs: (Level 1) quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; (Level 2) significant other observable inputs, including quoted prices for similar items in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar items in markets that are not active, inputs such as interest rates and yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks and default rates which provide a reasonable basis for fair value determination or inputs derived principally from observed market data; (Level 3) significant unobservable inputs for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs must reflect reasonable assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, which are developed on the basis of the best information available under the circumstances.
Effective January 1, 2015, the Bank elected the fair value option pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 825, “Financial Instruments” for certain closed mortgage loans intended for sale and transferred the placement of loans held for sale to Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. ASC 825 allows for the irrevocable option to elect fair value accounting for the initial and subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis that may otherwise not be required to be measured at fair value under other accounting standards. The Bank has elected the fair value option for certain residential real estate mortgage loans held for sale pursuant to forward sale commitments in order to better match changes in fair values for the loans with changes in the fair value of the forward loan sale contracts used to economically hedge them. The aggregate fair value of loans held for sale, the contractual balance of loans held for sale and the gain on loans held for sale totaled $28.1 million, $26.9 million and $1.2 million at September 30, 2016. The aggregate fair value of loans held for sale, the contractual balance of loans held for sale and the gain on loans held for sale totaled $19.0 million, $18.3 million and $684,000 at December 31, 2015. The change in fair value of loans held for sale reported as a component of net gains on sale of loans and other mortgage banking income was $137,000 and $286,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $540,000 and $157,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The Bank did not have cause to transfer any assets between the fair value measurement levels during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 or the year ended December 31, 2015.
Impaired loan balances in the table above represent those collateral dependent impaired loans where management has estimated the credit loss by comparing the loan’s carrying value against the expected realizable fair value of the collateral (appraised value or internal analysis less estimated cost to sell, adjusted as necessary for changes in relevant valuation factors subsequent to the measurement date). Certain inputs used in these assessments, and possible subsequent adjustments, are not always observable, and therefore, collateral dependent impaired loans are categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. A specific allowance or partial charge-off is recorded to the collateral dependent impaired loan for the amount of management’s estimated credit loss. The provision to the allowance for loan losses related to collateral dependent impaired loans recorded at fair value for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, totaled $44,000 and $20,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, totaled $67,000 and $120,000, respectively. The carrying value of impaired loans recorded at fair value is $587,000, net of $17,000 in charge-offs and specific reserves of $39,000 at September 30, 2016. The carrying value of impaired loans recorded at fair value was $1.1 million, net of $28,000 in charge-offs and $15,000 in specific reserves at December 31, 2015.
COASTWAY BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Real estate acquired by the Bank through foreclosure proceedings or the acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure is classified as foreclosed real estate. When property is acquired, it is generally recorded at the estimated fair value of the property acquired, less estimated costs to sell. The estimated fair value is based on market appraisals and the Bank’s internal analysis. Certain inputs used in appraisals or the Bank’s internal analysis, are not always observable, and therefore, foreclosed real estate may be categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. There were $47,000 and $12,000 of provision for losses on foreclosed real estate for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. There were $62,000 and $12,000 of provision for losses on foreclosed real estate for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. There was one property acquired through foreclosure during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 with a carrying value of $211,000.
When real estate is determined to be held for sale, it is recorded at the lower of estimated fair value less estimated cost to sell. The fair value less costs to sell is determined based on current appraisals that utilize prices in observed transactions involving similar assets or estimated selling price less costs to sell. There were no write-downs on real estate held for sale during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and $386,000 and $581,000 of write-downs on real estate held for sale during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015. The Bank recorded no loss for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and recorded a loss of $11,000 upon the sale of its two real estate held for sale properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Derivatives fair value methodology
Fair value changes in mortgage banking derivatives (interest rate lock commitments and commitments to sell fixed-rate residential mortgages) subsequent to inception are estimated using anticipated market prices based on pricing indications provided from syndicate banks and consideration of pull-through and fallout rates. The fair value of the mortgage banking derivatives are considered to be Level 3 assets.
The table below presents for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the change in Level 3 assets and liabilities that are measured on a recurring basis:

Estimated Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities
In addition to disclosures regarding the measurement of assets and liabilities carried at fair value on the balance sheet, the Corporation is also required to disclose fair value information about financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value, whether or not recognized on the balance sheet. In cases where quoted fair values are not available, fair values are based upon estimates using various valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument. The following methods and assumptions were used by the Corporation in estimating fair values of its financial instruments.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Corporation in estimating fair value disclosures:
Cash and cash equivalents — The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate fair values based on the short-term nature of the assets.
Certificates of deposit — The carrying value of certificates of deposit is deemed to approximate fair value, based on both the current interest rate and the maturity date.
Federal Home Loan Bank stock — It is not practical to determine the fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability.
COASTWAY BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Loans, net — For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Fair values for non-performing loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses or underlying collateral values, where applicable.
Loans held for sale — Fair values of loans held for sale are based on prevailing market rates for loans with similar characteristics.
Deposits — The fair values of deposits with no stated maturity, such as demand deposits, savings, club and money market accounts, are equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. Fair values for term certificates are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies market interest rates currently being offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
Borrowed funds — The fair values of the Bank’s FHLB advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses based on the current incremental borrowing rates in the market for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
Accrued interest — The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.
Off-balance sheet credit-related instruments — Fair values for off-balance-sheet, credit related financial instruments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing.
The estimates of fair value of financial instruments were based on information available at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and are not indicative of the fair market value of those instruments as of the date of this report. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Corporation’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. The fair value of the Corporation’s time deposit liabilities do not take into consideration the value of the Corporation’s long-term relationships with depositors, which may have significant value.
Because no active market exists for a portion of the Corporation’s financial instruments, fair value estimates were based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
Fair value estimates were based on existing on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments without an attempt to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments, including premises and equipment and foreclosed real estate, and real estate held for sale.
The carrying values, estimated fair values and placement in the fair value hierarchy of the Corporation’s financial instruments(1) for which fair value is only disclosed but not recognized on the balance sheet at the dates indicated are summarized as follows:

(1) Excluded from this table are certain financial instruments that approximate fair value, as they were short-term in nature or payable on demand. These include cash and cash equivalents, certificates of deposit, accrued interest receivable, non-term deposit accounts, and accrued interest payable. The respective carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, certificates of deposit and non-term deposit accounts would all be considered to be classified within Level 1 of their fair value hierarchy. The $1.5 million and $1.4 million carrying value of accrued interest receivable on loans would generally be considered Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy and the carrying value of accrued interest payable of $27,000 and $24,000 at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively would be considered Level 2.

Therefore, the Corporation cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking information and statements.
Accounting Policies/Critical Accounting Estimates
As discussed in the 2015 consolidated financial statements included in the Corporation’s annual report on Form 10-K, the most significant areas in which management applies critical assumptions and estimates that are particularly susceptible to change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of deferred tax assets, and the valuation of loans held for sale, mortgage banking derivatives and commitments to sell fixed-rate residential mortgages. The Corporation has not changed its significant accounting and reporting policies from those disclosed in its 2015 consolidated financial statements.
Overview
Coastway Bancorp, Inc. is a Maryland corporation and owns 100% of the common stock of Coastway Community Bank. On January 14, 2014, we completed our initial public offering (“IPO”) of common stock in connection with the mutual-to-stock conversion of Coastway Bancorp, MHC, selling 4,827,125 shares of common stock at $10.00 per share (contributing $300,000 in cash and 122,054 shares of common stock to Coastway Cares Charitable Foundation II) and raising $48.3 million of gross proceeds.
The Corporation’s earnings are largely dependent on net interest income which is the difference between interest earned on loans, investments and cash and cash equivalents, and the cost of funding (primarily deposits and borrowed funds). The re-pricing frequency of the Corporation’s assets and liabilities are not identical, and therefore subject the Corporation to the risk of adverse changes in interest rates. Historically, our interest-earning assets had re-priced more quickly than our interest-bearing liabilities, which make us vulnerable to decreases in interest rates. Due to the growth in the residential one- to four-family loan portfolio, coupled with the increase in short-term borrowed funds, our interest-bearing liabilities may re-price more quickly than our interest-earning assets in the first two to three years in an increasing interest rate environment, and then revert back to interest-earning assets re-pricing more quickly than our interest-bearing liabilities thereafter due to the timing of loans repricing. The Corporation’s earnings are also dependent on the net gains on sales of loans, and other mortgage banking income, which is volatile. When interest rates rise, the demand for mortgage loans tends to fall and may reduce the number of loans we can originate for sale. Weak or deteriorating economic conditions also tend to reduce loan demand. The Corporation’s operating expenses are high as a percentage of net interest income and non-interest income, due to prior branch growth and increase in personnel as we positioned the Bank for future growth.
Net income increased $837,000, or 241.9% to $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to net income of $346,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The earnings results for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015 were impacted by a $733,000 increase in net interest income, primarily due to growth in loan interest income of $871,000, partially offset by an increase in interest expense on borrowed funds of $139,000 as borrowings increased to support loan growth. During the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded a decrease in the provision for loan losses of $107,000, and had an increase in total non-interest income of $793,000, an increase of $335,000 in non-interest expense, and an increase in income tax expense of $461,000. The increase in non-interest income was primarily the result of an increase in net gains on sales of loans, and other mortgage banking income of $662,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015 due to both increased volume and improved margins. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily due to the increase in salary and employee benefits expense of $359,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015, primarily due to an increase in full time equivalents (“FTEs”) to 143 at September 30, 2016 from 137 at September 30, 2015, an increase in supplemental executive retirement plan expense of $41,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015, general merit increases, and $33,000 in stock-based compensation expense related to awards made under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan in 2016 which had no grants in 2015. Non-interest expenses were also impacted by $386,000 of impairment losses recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2015 based on the acceptance of an offer and subsequent entry into a Purchase & Sale Agreement to sell One Coastway Plaza. Deposit servicing costs increased $105,000 from $209,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 to $314,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 primarily due to increased debit card costs. The increase in income tax expense during the three months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily due to increased pre-tax income.
Net income increased $1.7 million or 170.8% to $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to net income of $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Net income increased due to the increase in net interest income of $2.3 million primarily due to $2.6 million in increased loan interest income, partially offset by an increase in interest expense on borrowed funds of $369,000 as borrowings increased to support loan growth. Net income also increased due to an increase in net gains on sales of loans and other mortgage banking income of $1.1 million due to both increased volume and improved margins. The earnings results for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015 were also impacted by a $24,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses. Non-interest expenses increased $857,000, or 6.0%, to $15.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $14.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily due to increased salary and employee benefits expense, which increased $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Deposit servicing costs increased $181,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2015 due to increased debit card costs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, impairment losses of $581,000 were recorded based on the acceptances of offers in July 2015 to purchase the Coventry land and in August 2015 related to One Coastway Plaza both of which had been classified as real estate held for sale. The increase in income tax expense in 2016 was primarily due to increased pre-tax income.
Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015
Assets. Our total assets increased $67.7 million, or 12.0%, to $632.9 million at September 30, 2016 from $565.1 million at December 31, 2015 primarily due to loan growth. Total loans (excluding loans held for sale) increased $57.7 million, or 12.4%, to $523.2 million at September 30, 2016 from $465.6 million at December 31, 2015. The increase in total loans was primarily due to an increase in residential one- to four-family loans of $33.1 million, or 15.9%, to $241.9 million at September 30, 2016 from $208.8 million at December 31, 2015. Residential one- to four-family loans increased due to purchases of $15.0 million of loans at a purchase price of $15.2 million from third parties as well as organic loan growth. Commercial real estate loans increased $7.4 million, or 5.9%, to $133.2 million at September 30, 2016 as compared to $125.8 million at December 31, 2015. Commercial business loans increased $6.7 million, or 74.6%, to $15.6 million at September 30, 2016 from $8.9 million at December 31, 2015, primarily due to an increase in the drawn amount related to a business line of credit. Commercial construction loans increased to $12.1 million at September 30, 2016 from $4.7 million at December 31, 2015, or $7.4 million, of which $5.2 million related to four new loans in 2016 and the remainder was due to additional advances. Cash and cash equivalents increased $4.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 primarily due to a decision to maintain additional on-balance sheet liquidity.

Deposits. Our primary source of funds is retail deposits held by individuals and businesses within our market area. Deposits increased $17.4 million, or 4.7%, to $391.0 million at September 30, 2016 from $373.5 million at December 31, 2015. The increase in deposits was primarily as a result of an increase in certificates of deposit and savings accounts. Certificates of deposit increased $6.0 million, or 5.5% to $115.1 million at September 30, 2016. The increase in certificates of deposit was primarily in the five-year maturity category as we increased our interest rates paid in September 2015. Savings and interest bearing demand deposit accounts increased $8.2 million, or 8.4% to $106.4 million at September 30, 2016. Non-interest bearing demand deposits increased $3.6 million, or 3.7% from $96.0 million at December 31, 2015 to $99.5 million at September 30, 2016.

Borrowed Funds. We utilize borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston as an alternate funding source to deposits. Borrowed funds at September 30, 2016 totaled $166.1 million as compared to $115.5 million at December 31, 2015, an increase of $50.6 million, or 43.8%. Borrowed funds at September 30, 2016 were comprised of $164.3 million of short-term advances, $1.3 million in overnight advances and $1.8 million of a long-term advance at a combined weighted average rate of 0.49% as compared to short-term advances of $115.5 million at December 31, 2015 at a weighted average rate of 0.44%. The increase in borrowed funds during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was to fund loan growth. The $1.8 million long-term advance was made under the FHLB’s Jobs for New England Program and matures on September 20, 2021 at a 0% interest rate.
Total Stockholders’ Equity. Total stockholders’ equity decreased to $69.3 million at September 30, 2016 from $70.9 million at December 31, 2015. The decrease in stockholders’ equity was due to stock repurchases of $4.6 million, partially offset by net income of $2.8 million, $150,000 of ESOP shares committed to be allocated, and $90,000 of stock-based compensation.
Nonperforming Assets
Loans on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued are designated as non-performing loans. Accrual of interest on loans is generally discontinued when contractual payments of principal or interest have become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan is performing. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, unpaid interest credited to income is reversed. Interest received on nonaccrual loans is applied against principal or interest or is recognized in income on a cash basis, until qualifying for return to accrual. Generally, loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current, the loan has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time and future payments are reasonably assured.
Loans are classified as troubled debt restructured loans when certain modifications are made to the loan terms and concessions are granted to the borrowers due to financial difficulty experienced by those borrowers. The modifications of the terms of such loans were one of the following: a reduction of the stated interest rate of the loan for some period of time, an extension of the maturity date at a stated rate of interest lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, or an extension of time to make payments with the delinquent payment added to the principal of the loan. Loans on nonaccrual status at the date of modification are initially classified as non-accruing troubled debt restructurings. Troubled debt restructured loans may be returned to accrual status after a period of satisfactory and reasonable future payment performance under the terms of the restructuring. Satisfactory payment performance is generally six months of current payments.
Non-performing loans increased to $5.0 million, or 0.96% of total loans at September 30, 2016, from $4.2 million, or 0.91% of total loans, at December 31, 2015 primarily due to a $702,000 increase in non-performing one- to four-family residential loans. A residential one- to four-family loan with a balance of $754,000 was moved to non-performing status during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The estimated fair value of the collateral securing the $754,000 loan is sufficient based on a recent appraisal to protect against a potential loss. Further, two home equity lines of credit totaling $286,000 were classified as non-accruing troubled-debt restructurings based on their delinquency or maturity status during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. A $4.0 million commercial real estate loan was moved to accruing troubled debt restructured based on an extension of the maturity date. The loan is well-secured based on its most recent appraisal and is current at September 30, 2016.
One commercial real estate loan totaling $109,000 was moved to an accruing troubled debt restructured loan from non-performing status based on satisfactory payment performance.
Foreclosed real estate consists of property acquired through formal foreclosure or the acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, and is recorded at fair value less costs to sell. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, a $211,000 three-unit commercial building was transferred from loans to foreclosed real estate, which was net of a $12,000 charge-off, and a valuation allowance of $46,500 was recorded based upon acceptance of a Purchase & Sale Agreement during the three months ended September 30, 2016. One foreclosed property was sold for $416,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Non-performing assets are comprised of non-performing loans, and foreclosed real estate. The designation of a loan or other asset as non-performing does not necessarily indicate that loan principal and interest will ultimately be uncollectible. However, management recognizes the greater risk characteristics of these assets and therefore considers the potential risk of loss on assets included in this category in evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Despite prudent loan underwriting, adverse changes within the Bank’s market area, or deterioration in local, regional or national economic conditions, could negatively impact the Bank’s level of non-performing loans and assets in the future.
Non-performing assets increased $477,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to $5.4 million at September 30, 2016 from $5.0 million at December 31, 2015 due primarily to the increase in non-performing loans discussed above.
The table below sets forth the amounts and categories of our nonperforming assets at the dates indicated. For the dates presented, there were no loans delinquent 90 days or more and still accruing.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, and for the year ended December 31, 2015, gross interest income which would have been recorded had the non-performing loans been current in accordance with their original terms amounted to $40,000, $39,000, $171,000, $170,000 and $190,000, respectively. The amount that was included in interest income on such loans totaled $17,000, $41,000, $103,000, $130,000 and $123,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, and the year ended December 31, 2015, respectively.
Asset Quality
Federal regulations provide for the classification of loans and other assets, such as debt and equity securities considered by the FDIC to be of lesser quality, as “substandard”, “doubtful”, or “loss”. An asset is “substandard” if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. “Substandard” assets include those characterized by the “distinct possibility” that the insured institution will sustain “some loss” if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as “doubtful” have all of the weaknesses present to make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, “highly questionable and improbable”. Assets classified as “loss” are those considered “uncollectible” and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted. Assets which do not currently expose the insured institution to sufficient risk to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories but possess weaknesses are designated as “special mention” by our management.
In accordance with our loan policy, we regularly review the problem loans in our portfolio to determine whether any loans require classification in accordance with applicable regulations. Loans are listed on the “watch list” initially because of emerging financial weaknesses even though the loan is currently performing as agreed, or if the loan possesses weaknesses although currently performing. If a loan deteriorates in asset quality the classification is changed to “special mention”, “substandard” “doubtful” or “loss” depending on the circumstances and the evaluation. Based on this review, we had classified or held as special mention the following loans as of the date indicated:

The level of classified and special mention loans increased by $3.5 million to $8.5 million at September 30, 2016 from $5.0 million at December 31, 2015. One commercial real estate loan totaling $4.0 million was downgraded to “substandard” during the three months ended September 30, 2016 based upon tax liens and a modification of the loan’s maturity date. The loan is well secured based on the most recent appraisal of the real estate collateral securing the loan. Two substandard commercial real estate loans totaling $1.0 million were upgraded from “substandard” based on improvement in credit quality during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Two commercial real estate loans totaling $717,000 and two SBA loans totaling $487,000 were downgraded from “watch” to special mention during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. One SBA loan totaling $99,000 was downgraded to “doubtful” based on closure of the business, for which all the net carrying value is guaranteed by the SBA.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is the amount necessary to reflect probable incurred losses in the portfolio. The Corporation evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses on loans on a quarterly basis. When additional allowances are necessary, a provision for loan losses is charged to earnings.
The Corporation’s methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses consists of two key elements: (1) specific allowances for identified impaired loans; and (2) a general valuation allowance on the remainder of the portfolio. Although the Corporation determines the amount of each element of the allowance separately, the entire allowance is available for the entire portfolio.
The Corporation identifies loans that may need to be charged off by reviewing delinquent loans, classified loans, and other loans about which management may have concerns about collectability. For individually reviewed loans, the borrower’s inability to make payments under the terms of the loan as well as the shortfall in collateral value could result in a charge-off of the loan or the portion of the loan that was impaired.
Among other factors, the Corporation considers current general economic conditions, including current housing price depreciation, in determining the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses for the Corporation’s residential real estate portfolio. The Corporation uses evidence obtained from its own loan portfolio, including loss history, as well as published housing data in its local markets from third party sources believed to be reliable as a basis for assumptions about the impact of housing depreciation.
Substantially all of the Corporation’s loans are secured by collateral. Loans 90 days past due and other classified loans are evaluated for impairment and general or specific allowances are established. Typically for a non-performing impaired real estate loan, the value of the underlying collateral is estimated using an independent appraisal, adjusted for property specific conditions and other factors, and related specific reserves are adjusted on a quarterly basis. If a non-performing impaired real estate loan is in the process of foreclosure, and/or there are serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, and there is uncertainty about the value of the underlying collateral, a new appraisal may be ordered. Any shortfall would result in immediately charging off the portion of the loan that was impaired.
The Corporation evaluates the need for a specific allowance when loans are determined to be impaired. Loss is measured by determining the present value of expected future cash flows or, for collateral dependent loans, the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling expenses.
The general component of the allowance for loan losses is established for loans that are not classified as impaired to recognize the inherent losses associated with lending activities, but which, unlike specific allowances, has not been allocated to particular problem assets. This general valuation allowance is determined by segregating the loans by loan category (segments) and assigning allowance percentages based on a ten year historical loss period to capture relevant loss data for each loan segment. This historical loss factor is adjusted for the following qualitative factors: levels/trends in delinquencies; charge-off trends over the past three year period; weighted average risk ratings; loan concentrations; management’s assessment of internal factors; and management’s assessment of external factors such as interest rates, real estate markets and local and national economic factors. Although the allowance for loan losses is allocated to various portfolio categories, it is general in nature and available for the loan portfolio in its entirety. The allowance may be adjusted for significant factors that in management’s judgment, affect the collectability of the portfolio as of the evaluation date. The applied loss factors are reevaluated quarterly to ensure their relevance in the current and overall economic environment and in relation to trends in the loan portfolio.
Despite prudent loan underwriting, adverse changes within the Corporation’s market area, or further deterioration in the local, regional or national economic conditions including a decline in real estate market values in Rhode Island, an increase in interest rates, as well as bank regulatory examination and/or independent loan review results could negatively impact the Corporation’s level of allowance for loan losses and non-performing assets in the future.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015.
General. Net income increased $837,000, 241.9% to $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to net income of $346,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The earnings results for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015 were impacted by a $733,000 increase in net interest income, primarily due to growth in loan interest income of $871,000, partially offset by an increase in interest expense on borrowed funds of $139,000 as borrowings increased to support loan growth. During the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded a decrease in the provision for loan losses of $107,000, and had an increase in total non-interest income of $793,000, an increase of $335,000 in non-interest expense, and an increase in income tax expense of $461,000. The increase in non-interest income was primarily the result of an increase in net gains on sales of loans, and other mortgage banking income of $662,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015 due to both increased volume and improved margins. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily due to the increase in salary and employee benefits expense of $359,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015, primarily due to an increase in full time equivalents (“FTEs”) to 143 at September 30, 2016 from 137 at September 30, 2015, an increase in supplemental executive retirement plan expense of $41,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015, general merit increases, and $33,000 in stock-based compensation expense related to awards made under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan in 2016 which had no grants in 2015. Non-interest expenses were also impacted by $386,000 of impairment losses recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2015 based on the acceptance of an offer and subsequent entry into a Purchase & Sale Agreement to sell One Coastway Plaza. Deposit servicing costs increased $105,000 from $209,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 to $314,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 primarily due to increased debit card costs. The increase in income tax expense during the three months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily due to increased pre-tax income.
Interest Income. Interest income increased $900,000, or 19.7%, to $5.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $4.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The increase reflected an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets of $100.7 million to $571.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $470.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, partially offset by a decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets to 3.82% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to 3.86% for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The majority of our interest income was derived from interest and fees on loans.
Interest and fees on loans increased $871,000, or 19.2%, to $5.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $4.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015. Interest and fees on loans increased due to an increase in the average balance of loans and loans held for sale of $94.5 million to $542.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $447.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The increase in our average balance of loans was principally due to the growth in our residential one- to four-family, commercial real estate and commercial business loan portfolios. Partially offsetting the increase in the average balance of our loans was a decrease in our average yield on loans which decreased to 3.96% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from 4.01% for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease in our average yield on loans during the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the prior year period was primarily due to a decline in market interest rates as well as the increase in residential one- to four-family residential loans as a percentage of our total loan portfolio which generally are originated at lower interest rates as compared to commercial real estate and SBA loans.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $167,000, or 31.2%, to $702,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $535,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 due to an increase in interest expense on borrowed funds of $139,000 and a $28,000, or 5.8%, increase in deposit interest expense.
Interest expense on deposits increased $28,000, or 5.8%, to $514,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $486,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015. Deposit interest expense increased due to an increase of $13.2 million in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits coupled with an increase in the average cost of deposits of one basis point to 0.71% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to 0.70% for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The average cost of certificates of deposit increased from 1.41% for the three months ended September 30, 2015 to 1.45% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and the average balance of certificates of deposit increased $5.2 million to $114.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $109.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 primarily as a result of the increase in our five year certificate of deposit interest rate.
Interest expense on borrowed funds increased $139,000 to $188,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $49,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 due to an increase in the average balance of borrowed funds as well as an increase in the average cost of borrowed funds. The average balance of borrowed funds increased $71.6 million to $152.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $80.4 million for the three months ended September 30,
2015, as we increased short-term borrowings to fund loan growth. The average cost of borrowed funds increased to 0.49% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from 0.24% for the three months ended September 30, 2015 primarily due to the December 2015 increase in short-term interest rates, partially offset by the impact of the no interest cost of the $1.8 million long-term borrowing.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $733,000, or 18.1%, to $4.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $4.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015. This increase was due to the $15.9 million increase in net interest-earning assets to $130.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the prior year period, partially offset by a decrease in our interest rate spread of eight basis points to 3.18% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to 3.26% for the prior year period. The net interest margin decreased eight basis points to 3.33% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from 3.41% for the three months ended September 30, 2015.
Rate / Volume Analysis
The following table presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for the major categories of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities for the periods indicated. Information is provided for each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities with respect to (i) changes attributable to changes in volume (i.e., changes in average balances multiplied by the prior-period average rate) and (ii) changes attributable to rate (i.e., changes in average rate multiplied by prior-period average balances). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

The following table sets forth average balance sheets, average yields and costs, and certain other information for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. No tax-equivalent yield adjustments were made, as we had no non-taxable interest-earning assets during the periods presented. All average balances are daily average balances. Nonaccrual loans were included in the computation of average balances, but have been reflected in the tables as loans carrying a zero yield. The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred loan fees, discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or interest expense.

Provision for loan losses. A provision for loan losses of $89,000 was recorded to the allowance for loan losses during the three months ended September 30, 2016, a decrease of $107,000 as compared to a provision of $196,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, a provision of $60,000 was recorded to the residential one- to four-family loan portfolio, a provision of $18,000 was recorded to the commercial real estate loan portfolio and a $18,000 provision was recorded for the commercial construction portfolio primarily due to loan growth. Our provisions are based on our assessment of loss history, current asset quality and economic trends.
During the three months ended September 30, 2015, a provision of $113,000 was recorded relating to the residential one- to-four-family loan portfolio primarily due to loan growth. We recorded net charge-offs of $100,000 on the residential one- to four-family portfolio during the three months ended September 30, 2015. A provision of $41,000 was recorded related to the commercial real estate portfolio due to loan growth during the three months ended September 30, 2015, and a provision of $42,000 was recorded related to the home equity portfolio primarily due to a delinquent home equity loan that was charged-off during the quarter.
Non-Interest income. Non-interest income increased $793,000, or 49.3%, to $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The increase in non-interest income was primarily the result of an increase in net gains on sales of loans, and other mortgage banking income of $662,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015. Gains on sales of mortgage loans increased $679,000 from $756,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 to $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 due to increased loan sales volume as well as improved net margins on sales. Mortgage loans sold during the three months ended September 30, 2015 totaled $49.9 million as compared to $63.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016. A gain in the fair value of our mortgage derivatives and change in the fair value of loans held for sale of $22,000 were recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $39,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2015. Other income (loss) increased $115,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 primarily due to the impact of the change in fair value of bonds held in a Rabbi Trust, which holds the assets invested on behalf of the DCSERP.
Non-Interest expenses. Non-interest expense increased $335,000, or 7.0%, to $5.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $4.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015. Salary and employee benefits expense increased $359,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015 primarily due to an increase in FTEs to 143 at September 30, 2016 from 137 at September 30, 2015, an increase in supplemental executive retirement plan expense of $41,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015, general merit increases, $33,000 in stock-based compensation expense related to awards made in 2016 under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan which had no grants in 2015 and an increase in DCSERP benefit obligations of $129,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015. Deposit servicing costs increased $105,000 primarily due to increased debit card costs. Impairment loss on real estate held for sale was $386,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to no impairments during the three months ended September 30, 2016 based on the acceptance of an offer and subsequent entry into a Purchase & Sale Agreement to sell One Coastway Plaza in 2015. General and Administrative expenses increased $92,000 to $478,000 primarily due to $26,000 in additional travel and education expenses and $35,000 increase in debit card fraud losses.
Income tax expense. Income tax expense of $752,000 was recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $461,000, or 158.4%, as compared to $291,000 of income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The increase in income tax expense was primarily due to an increase in pre-tax income of $1.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2015. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was 38.9% and 45.7%, respectively.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015
General. Net income increased $1.7 million or 170.8%, to $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to net income of $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Net income increased due to the increase in net interest income of $1.6 million primarily due to $2.6 million in increased loan interest income, partially offset by an increase in interest expense on borrowed funds of $369,000 as borrowings increased to support loan growth. Net income also increased due to an increase in net gains on sales of loans and other mortgage banking income of $1.1 million due to both increased volume and improved margins. The earnings results for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015 were also impacted by a $24,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses. Non-interest expenses increased $857,000, or 6.0%, to $15.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $14.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily due to increased salary and employee benefits expense, which increased $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Deposit servicing costs increased $181,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2015 due to increased debit card costs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, impairment losses of $581,000 were recorded based on the acceptances of offers in July 2015 to purchase the Coventry land and in August 2015 related to One Coastway Plaza both of which had been classified as real estate held for sale. The increase in income tax expense in 2016 was primarily due to increased pre-tax income.
Interest Income. Interest income increased $2.7 million, or 20.4%, to $15.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $13.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase reflected an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets of $101.4 million to $545.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $443.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, partially offset by a decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets to 3.84% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to 3.93% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The majority of our interest income was derived from interest and fees on loans.
Interest and fees on loans increased $2.6 million, or 19.8%, to $15.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $12.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Interest and fees on loans increased due to an increase in the average balance of loans and loans held for sale of $97.7 million to $518.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $420.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase in our average balance of loans was principally due to the growth in our residential one- to four-family, commercial real estate and commercial business loan portfolios during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Partially offsetting the increase in the average balance of our loans was a decrease in our average yield on loans which decreased to 3.98% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to 4.10% for nine months ended September 30, 2015 primarily due to a decline in market interest rates as well as the increase in residential one- to four-family residential loans as a percentage of our total loan portfolio which are generally originated at lower interest rates as compared to commercial real estate and SBA loans.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $309,000, or 18.5%, to $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 primarily due to an increase in interest expense on borrowed funds of $369,000, partially offset by a decline in interest expense on deposits of $60,000.
Interest expense on deposits decreased $60,000, or 3.8%, to $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Interest expense on deposits declined $60,000 due to a decline in the average cost of deposits of five basis points to 0.71% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to 0.76% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as a result of lower interest rates. The average cost of certificates of deposit declined from 1.50% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 to 1.44% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. While the average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $8.2 million to $283.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the average balance of the higher costing certificates of deposit decreased $5.7 million to $112.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $114.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, as certain depositors chose not to extend maturity dates based on possible future interest rate increases.
Interest expense on borrowed funds increased $369,000 to $481,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $112,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 primarily due to a $75.5 million increase in the average balance of borrowed funds to $132.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $56.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The average cost of borrowed funds increased to 49 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from 26 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, due to the increase in short-term rates in December, 2015, partially offset by the impact of the no interest cost of the $1.8 million long-term borrowing.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $2.3 million, or 20.6%, to $13.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $11.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. This increase was due to a $17.6 million increase in net interest-earning assets to $128.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the prior year period. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in our interest rate spread of four basis points to 3.21% for
the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to 3.25% for the prior year period. The net interest margin decreased to 3.36% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from 3.42% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
Rate / Volume Analysis
The following table presents the dollar amount of changes in interest income and interest expense for the major categories of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities for the periods indicated. Information is provided for each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities with respect to (i) changes attributable to changes in volume (i.e., changes in average balances multiplied by the prior-period average rate) and (ii) changes attributable to rate (i.e., changes in average rate multiplied by prior-period average balances). For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and volume which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately to the change due to volume and the change due to rate.

The following table sets forth average balance sheets, average yields and costs, and certain other information for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. No tax-equivalent yield adjustments were made, as we had no non-taxable interest-earning assets during the periods presented. All average balances are daily average balances. Nonaccrual loans were included in the computation of average balances, but have been reflected in the tables as loans carrying a zero yield. The yields set forth below include the effect of deferred loan fees, discounts and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or interest expense.

Provision for loan losses. A provision for loan losses of $343,000 was recorded to the allowance for loan losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, a decrease of $24,000 as compared to a provision of $367,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, principally due to loan growth in the residential and commercial loan categories. Our provisions are based on our assessment of loss history, current asset quality and economic trends. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, a provision of $163,000 was recorded relating to the residential one- to four-family loan portfolio, a provision of $56,000 was recorded related to the commercial real estate portfolio, a provision of $30,000 was recorded to the commercial business portfolio and a provision of $34,000 was recorded to the commercial construction portfolio primarily due to loan growth. We recorded a provision of $58,000 on the home equity portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Net charge-offs of $57,000 on the home equity loan portfolio were recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
A provision of $367,000 was recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. We recorded $274,000 of the provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 related to the residential one- to four-family loan portfolio and $101,000 related to the commercial real estate portfolio, based on our assessment of loss history, impact of loan growth, asset quality and economic trends and charge-offs experienced in the portfolio. We recorded a provision of $47,000 in the home equity portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, while home equity net charge-offs totaled $113,000. The balance of home equity loans and lines of credit declined $2.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. We recorded a credit to the provision of $28,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 related to a decline in the SBA portfolio balance and due to lower specific reserves.
Non-Interest income. Non-interest income increased $1.3 million, or 14.8%, to $6.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $5.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase in non-interest income was primarily due to an increase of $1.1 million in net gains on sales of loans and other mortgage banking income. Gains on sales of mortgage loans increased $1.4 million from $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 to $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Mortgage loans sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 amounted to $134.1 million as compared to $155.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in the net gain on sales of mortgage loans was due to an increase in the net margin on the sales of mortgage loans during the first nine months of 2016 coupled with the higher volume of loans sold. An increase in the fair value of mortgage derivatives, commitments to sell and loans held for sale of $39,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2015, was due to increased loan sale volume and an increased pipeline. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, SBA loans totaling $4.2 million were sold for a gain of $328,000 as compared to no SBA loan sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Customer service fees increased $94,000 to $2.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $2.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 primarily due to higher VISA fees. Other income (loss) increased $112,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2015 primarily due to the impact of the change in fair value of bonds held in a Rabbi Trust, which holds the assets invested on behalf of the DCSERP.
Non-Interest expenses. Non-interest expenses increased $857,000, or 6.0%, to $15.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $14.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase in non-interest expenses was primarily due to increased salary and employee benefits expense, which increased $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2015 due to an increase in FTEs which was 143 at September 30, 2016, 133 FTEs at December 31, 2015, and 137 FTEs at September 30, 2015, general merit increases, an increase of supplemental executive retirement expense of $122,000 as compared to the same period in 2015, $83,000 in stock-based compensation expense related to awards made in 2016 under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan which had no grants in 2015 and an increase in DCSERP benefit obligations of $142,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
Deposit servicing expense increased $181,000 to $758,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $577,000 for the same period in 2015 primarily due to increased debit card expenses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, impairment of $581,000 was recorded based on an acceptance of offers in July 2015 to sell the Coventry land and in August, 2015 to sell One Coastway Plaza, which had been classified as real estate held for sale. Foreclosed real estate expenses decreased $44,000 to $96,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $140,000 for the prior year period primarily due to lower provisions for losses and lower foreclosed property expenses.
Other general and administrative expenses increased $176,000 to $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $1.2 million for the comparable 2015 period primarily due to a $15,000 increase in loan servicing expenses, a $43,000 increase in travel and education expenses, a $45,000 increase in office operations expenses primarily due to telephone communication upgrades and a $29,000 increase in other operational expenses due to debit card losses.
Income tax expense. Income tax expense of $1.8 million was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $1.1 million, as compared to $736,000 of income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase in income tax expense was primarily due to an increase in pre-tax income during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was 39.4% as compared to 41.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loans repayments, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston, principal repayments and loans sales. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. Our Asset/Liability Committee, is responsible for establishing and monitoring our liquidity targets and strategies in order to ensure that sufficient liquidity exists for meeting the borrowing needs and deposit withdrawals of our customers as well as unanticipated contingencies. We believe that we have enough sources of liquidity to satisfy our short- and long-term liquidity needs as of September 30, 2016.
The Corporation regularly monitors and adjusts its investments in liquid assets based upon an assessment of:
(i) Expected loan demand including commitments to purchase loans;
(ii) Expected deposit flows and borrowing maturities;
(iii) Yields available on interest-earning deposits; and
(iv) The objectives of our asset/liability management program.
Excess liquid assets are invested generally in interest-earning deposits and are also used to pay off short-term borrowings.
The Corporation’s most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents. The level of these assets is dependent on operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At September 30, 2016, cash and cash equivalents totaled $22.4 million. The Corporation also has $3.0 million of certificates of deposit at other banks.
The Corporation’s cash flows are derived from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
At September 30, 2016, the Bank had $61.5 million in commitments to originate loans, $36.6 million of which will be sold. In addition to commitments to originate loans, the Bank had $69.6 million in unused lines of credit to borrowers. Commitments to purchase loans from third parties totaled $2.1 million. Certificates of deposit due within one year of September 30, 2016 totaled $38.9 million, or 9.9%, of total deposits. If these deposits do not remain with us, we may be required to seek other sources of funds, including utilizing additional Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston advances and selling the guaranteed portions of SBA loans of $22.2 million as of September 30, 2016. Depending on market conditions, the Bank may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowed funds than it currently pays on the certificates of deposit due on or before September 30, 2017, or it may pay higher rates on borrowed funds should interest rates increase or should the Bank borrow for longer terms. Management believes, however, based on historical experience and current market interest rates, that the Bank will retain upon maturity, a large portion of certificates of deposit with maturities of one year or less as of September 30, 2016.
The Corporation’s primary investing activity is originating loans. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and for the year ended December 31, 2015, loan originations, net of principal repayments totaled $43.8 million, and $146.8 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and year ended December 31, 2015, purchases of loans from third party originators totaled $15.2 million and $57.4 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, proceeds from the sale of real estate held for sale totaled $3.3 million.
Financing activities consist primarily of activity in deposit accounts, borrowed funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston (FHLB) advances and stock repurchases. We experienced a net increase in deposits of $17.4 million and $30.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and for the year ended December 31, 2015, respectively. Deposit flows are affected by the overall level of interest rates, the interest rates and products offered by us and our local competitors, and by other factors. The net change in short term borrowed funds was $48.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $69.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 and $1.3 million in repayments of matured long-term advances for the year ended December 31, 2015. Long-term borrowed funds increased $1.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as the Bank utilized an advance under the FHLB’s Jobs for New England program. The advance
has a five year maturity. The Corporation repurchased $4.6 million of its common stock as part of two previously announced 5% stock repurchase programs during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. If we require funds beyond our ability to generate them internally, borrowing agreements exist with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston that provide an additional source of funds. Borrowed funds were $166.1 million and $115.5 million at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. At September 30, 2016, we had the ability to borrow up to an additional $43.4 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston. We also have the ability to borrow with the Federal Reserve discount window. At September 30, 2016, the Bank had the capacity to borrow up to $17.0 million from the Federal Reserve discount window, but had no outstanding borrowings as of that date.
Capital Resources
The Corporation believes its current capital is adequate to support ongoing operations. In July 2013, the Bank’s primary federal regulator, the FDIC, published final rules (the “Basel III Capital Rules”) that implement, in part, agreements reached by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (“Basel Committee”) in “Basel III: A Global Regulatory Framework for More Resilient Banks and Banking Systems” (“Basel III”) and imposed new capital requirements on the Bank, effective January 1, 2015. When fully phased in, the Basel III Capital Rules will additionally require institutions to retain a capital conservation buffer, composed of CET1, of 2.5% above these required minimum capital ratio levels. Banking organizations that fail to maintain the minimum 2.5% capital conservation buffer could face restrictions on capital distributions or discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. Restrictions would begin phasing in where the banking organization’s capital conservation buffer was below 2.5% at the beginning of a quarter, and distributions and discretionary bonus payments would be completely prohibited if no capital conservation buffer exists. When the capital conservation buffer is fully phased in on January 1, 2019, the Bank will effectively have the following minimum capital to risk-weighted assets ratios: a) 7.0% based upon CET1; b) 8.5% based upon tier 1 capital; and c) 10.5% based upon total regulatory capital. The implementation of the capital conservation buffer began on January 1, 2016 at 0.625% and increase by 0.625% each subsequent January 1, until it reaches 2.5% on January 1, 2019. As of September 30, 2016, the Bank qualifies as “well capitalized” under applicable regulations of the Rhode Island Department of Business Regulation and the FDIC. To be categorized as “well capitalized” under Basel III, framework, the Bank must maintain minimum Total Capital, Tier 1 and Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratios of 10%, 8% and 6.5% respectively, and, maintain a leverage capital ratio (Tier 1 capital to average assets) of at least 5%.
