Although the Bank has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of its borrowers’ abilities to honor their loan contracts is dependent upon the counties’ employment and economic conditions. The Bank acquires diversified pools of loans, originated by unrelated third parties, as part of the Company’s overall balance sheet management strategies. These acquisitions occurred in eleven separate transactions commencing in 2019 and four new pools were added during 2021.

Loan Origination / Risk Management The Company’s lending policies and procedures are presented in Note 5 to the audited consolidated financial statements included in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2022 and have not changed. As part of the execution of the Company’s overall balance sheet management strategies, the Bank will acquire participating interests in loans originated by unrelated third parties on an occasional basis. The purchase of participations in loans that are originated by third parties only occurs after the completion of thorough pre-acquisition due diligence. Loans in which the Company acquires a participating interest are determined to meet, in all material respects, the Company’s internal underwriting policies, including credit and collateral suitability thresholds, prior to acquisition. In addition, the financial condition of the originating financial institutions, which are generally retained as the ongoing loan servicing provider for participations acquired by the Bank, are analyzed prior to the acquisition of the participating interests and monitored on a regular basis thereafter for the life of those interests. To develop and document a systematic methodology for determining the allowance for loan losses, the Company has divided the loan portfolio into three portfolio segments, each with different risk characteristics but with similar methodologies for assessing risk. Each portfolio segment is broken down into loan classes where appropriate. Loan classes contain unique measurement attributes, risk characteristics, and methods for monitoring and assessing risk that are necessary to develop the allowance for loan losses. Unique characteristics such as borrower type, loan type, collateral type, and risk characteristics define each class. The following table illustrates the portfolio segments and classes for the Company’s loan portfolio: Portfolio Segment Class Residential Mortgage Loans 1-4 family first-lien residential mortgages Construction Commercial Loans Real estate Lines of credit Other commercial and industrial Tax exempt loans Consumer Loans Home equity and junior liens Other consumer The following tables present the classes of the loan portfolio, not including net deferred loan costs, summarized by the aggregate pass rating and the classified ratings of special mention, substandard and doubtful within the Company's internal risk rating system as of the dates indicated: As of March 31, 2022 Special (In thousands) Pass Mention Substandard Doubtful Total Residential mortgage loans: 1-4 family first-lien residential mortgages $ 231,039 $ 510 $ 599 $ 661 $ 232,809 Construction 21,594 - - - 21,594 Loans held-for-sale 679 - - - 679 Total residential mortgage loans 253,312 510 599 661 255,082 Commercial loans: Real estate 282,336 9,768 10,569 577 303,250 Lines of credit 67,908 4,078 3,337 48 75,370 Other commercial and industrial 58,521 3,457 7,534 183 69,695 Paycheck Protection Program loans 13,292 - - - 13,292 Tax exempt loans 5,550 - - - 5,550 Total commercial loans 427,607 17,302 21,440 808 467,157 Consumer loans: Home equity and junior liens 29,776 145 634 225 30,781 Other consumer 103,755 18 52 - 103,825 Total consumer loans 133,532 163 686 225 134,606 Total loans $ 814,451 $ 17,975 $ 22,724 $ 1,694 $ 856,845 As of December 31, 2021 Special (In thousands) Pass Mention Substandard Doubtful Total Residential mortgage loans: 1-4 family first-lien residential mortgages $ 238,823 $ 269 $ 811 $ 531 $ 240,434 Construction 6,329 - - - 6,329 Loans held-for-sale 513 - - - 513 Total residential mortgage loans 245,665 269 811 531 247,276 Commercial loans: Real estate 267,388 9,879 10,604 579 288,450 Lines of credit 54,408 4,036 3,387 53 61,884 Other commercial and industrial 56,719 3,907 8,321 188 69,135 Paycheck Protection Program loans 19,338 - - - 19,338 Tax exempt loans 5,811 - - - 5,811 Total commercial loans 403,664 17,822 22,312 820 444,618 Consumer loans: Home equity and junior liens 30,740 133 606 258 31,737 Other consumer 109,979 44 77 8 110,108 Total consumer loans 140,719 177 683 266 141,845 Total loans $ 790,048 $ 18,268 $ 23,806 $ 1,617 $ 833,739 Management has reviewed its loan portfolio and determined that, to the best of its knowledge, no material exposure exists to sub-prime or other high-risk residential mortgages. The Company is not in the practice of originating these types of loans. Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans Loans are placed on nonaccrual when the contractual payment of principal and interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan may be currently performing. Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received within thirty days of the payment due date. An age analysis of past due loans, not including net deferred loan costs, segregated by portfolio segment and class of loans, as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, are detailed in the following tables: As of March 31, 2022 30-59 Days 60-89 Days 90 Days Total Total Loans (In thousands) Past Due Past Due and Over Past Due Current Receivable Residential mortgage loans: 1-4 family first-lien residential mortgages $ 1,072 $ 322 $ 1,098 $ 2,492 $ 230,317 $ 232,809 Construction - - - - 21,594 21,594 Loans held-for-sale - - - - 679 679 Total residential mortgage loans 1,072 322 1,098 2,492 252,590 255,082 Commercial loans: Real estate 1,054 3,800 4,212 9,066 294,184 303,250 Lines of credit 274 365 94 733 74,637 75,370 Other commercial and industrial 1,572 1,016 1,001 3,589 66,106 69,695 Paycheck Protection Program loans - - - - 13,292 13,292 Tax exempt loans - - - - 5,550 5,550 Total commercial loans 2,900 5,181 5,307 13,388 453,769 467,157 Consumer loans: Home equity and junior liens 117 64 388 569 30,212 30,781 Other consumer 389 412 895 1,696 102,129 103,825 Total consumer loans 506 476 1,283 2,265 132,341 134,606 Total loans $ 4,478 $ 5,979 $ 7,688 $ 18,145 $ 838,700 $ 856,845 As of December 31, 2021 30-59 Days 60-89 Days 90 Days Total Total Loans (In thousands) Past Due Past Due and Over Past Due Current Receivable Residential mortgage loans: 1-4 family first-lien residential mortgages $ 960 $ 416 $ 891 $ 2,268 $ 238,166 $ 240,434 Construction - - - - 6,329 6,329 Loans held-for-sale - - - - 513 513 Total residential mortgage loans 960 416 891 2,268 245,008 247,276 Commercial loans: Real estate 1,735 1,029 4,379 7,143 281,307 288,450 Lines of credit 156 1,180 576 1,913 59,971 61,884 Other commercial and industrial 1,799 1,686 1,056 4,541 64,594 69,135 Paycheck Protection Program loans - - - - 19,338 19,338 Tax exempt loans - - - - 5,811 5,811 Total commercial loans 3,691 3,895 6,011 13,597 471,091 444,618 Consumer loans: Home equity and junior liens 17 49 251 317 31,420 31,737 Other consumer 571 257 852 1,680 108,428 110,108 Total consumer loans 588 306 1,103 1,998 139,847 141,845 Total loans $ 5,239 $ 4,617 $ 8,006 $ 17,862 $ 815,877 $ 833,739 Nonaccrual loans, segregated by class of loan, were as follows: March 31, December 31, (In thousands) 2022 2021 Residential mortgage loans: 1-4 family first-lien residential mortgages $ 1,098 $ 891 1,098 891 Commercial loans: Real estate 4,235 4,407 Lines of credit 141 629 Other commercial and industrial 1,191 1,261 5,567 6,297 Consumer loans: Home equity and junior liens 388 252 Other consumer 895 852 Total consumer loans 1,283 1,104 Total nonaccrual loans $ 7,948 $ 8,292 The Company is required to disclose certain activities related to Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDR”) in accordance with accounting guidance. Certain loans have been modified as a TDR where economic concessions have been granted to a borrower who is experiencing, or expected to experience, financial difficulties. These economic concessions could include a reduction in the loan interest rate, extension of payment terms, reduction of principal amortization, or other actions that it would not otherwise consider for a new loan with similar risk characteristics. The Company is required to disclose new TDRs for each reporting period for which an income statement is being presented. The pre-modification outstanding recorded investment is the principal loan balance less the provision for loan losses before the loan was modified as a TDR. The post-modification outstanding recorded investment is the principal balance less the provision for loan losses after the loan was modified as a TDR. Additional provision for loan losses is the change in the allowance for loan losses between the pre-modification outstanding recorded investment and post-modification outstanding recorded investment.

The Company is required to disclose loans that have been modified as TDRs within the previous 12 months in which there was payment default after the restructuring. The Company defines payment default as any loans 90 days past due on contractual payments.

If it is determined that the value of the loan is less than its recorded investment, then impairment is recognized as a component of the provision for loan losses, an associated increase to the allowance for loan losses or as a charge-off to the allowance for loan losses in the current period.
