At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company was servicing loans for participants aggregating $6,222,000 and $2,410,000, respectively.

Troubled Debt Restructurings The Company periodically grants concessions to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. The Company’s TDRs consist primarily of interest rate concessions for periods of three months to thirty years for residential real estate loans and home equity loans, and for periods up to one year for commercial real estate loans.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company also entered into one loan modification meeting the criteria of a TDR. Management performs a discounted cash flow calculation to determine the amount of impairment reserve required on each of the TDRs. Any reserve is recorded as part of the allowance for loan losses. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had allowances of $100,000 and $133,000, respectively, related to TDRs. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, there were no TDRs that defaulted (over 30 days past due) within twelve months of the restructuring date. No additional funds are committed to be advanced on loans being accounted for as TDRs. At December 31, 2021 there was one residential real estate troubled debt restructuring that was granted a payment deferral plan. That loan, totaling $213,000, was not performing in accordance with its modified terms. Credit Quality Information The Company utilizes an eight-grade internal loan rating system for commercial real estate, construction and commercial loans, as follows: Loans rated 1 – 3A are considered “pass” rated loans with low to average risk. Loans rated 4 are considered “special mention.” These loans are starting to show signs of potential weakness and are being closely monitored by management. Loans rated 5 are considered “substandard” and are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligors and/or the collateral pledged. There is a distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the weakness is not corrected. Loans rated 6 are considered “doubtful” and have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, highly questionable and improbable. Loans rated 7 are considered uncollectible (“loss”) and of such little value that their continuance as loans is not warranted. On an annual basis, or more often if needed, the Company formally reviews the ratings on all commercial real estate, construction and commercial loans. Annually, the Company 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 process. The following table presents the Company’s loans by risk rating at December 31, 2021 and 2020: Residential 1-4 Family Second Mortgages and HELOC Commercial Real Estate Construction Commercial and Industrial Consumer Total (In thousands) December 31, 2021 Not Rated $ 234,225 $ 56,797 $ — $ — $ — $ 7,552 $ 298,574 Loans rated 1 - 3A (Pass rated) — — 186,774 33,961 16,910 — 237,645 Loans rated 4 361 381 7,106 — 332 — 8,180 Loans rated 5 1,778 117 3,543 — — — 5,438 Total $ 236,364 $ 57,295 $ 197,423 $ 33,961 $ 17,242 $ 7,552 $ 549,837 December 31, 2020 Not Rated $ 233,773 $ 47,582 $ — $ — $ — $ 10,289 $ 291,644 Loans rated 1 - 3A (Pass rated) — — 129,925 31,050 19,828 — 180,803 Loans rated 4 803 584 9,257 — 431 — 11,075 Loans rated 5 1,072 — 4,711 — - — 5,783 Total $ 235,648 $ 48,166 $ 143,893 $ 31,050 $ 20,259 $ 10,289 $ 489,305 Residential mortgages, home equity loans and lines of credit, and consumer loans are monitored for credit quality based primarily on their payment status. When one of these loans becomes more than 90 days delinquent it is assigned an internal loan rating. |
