Loans and the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses | Note 6. Loans and the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of deferred loan fees and costs, premiums and discounts related to purchase accounting and an allowance for loan and lease losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized in interest income using the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments. Loan segments are defined as a group of loans and leases, which share similar initial measurement attributes, risk characteristics, and methods for monitoring and assessing credit risk. Management has determined that the Company has five segments of loans and leases: commercial (including lease financing), commercial real estate, commercial construction, residential real estate (including home equity) and consumer. Interest income on commercial, commercial real estate, commercial construction and residential loans are discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the loan is well-secured and in process of collection. Past due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. Nonaccrual loans and loans past due 90 days still on accrual include both smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and individually classified impaired loans. A loan is moved to nonaccrual status in accordance with the Company’s policy, typically after 90 days of non-payment. All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on nonaccrual is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such 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 policy of the Company is to generally grant commercial, residential and consumer loans to residents and businesses within its market area. The borrowers’ abilities to repay their obligations are dependent upon various factors including the borrowers’ income and net worth, cash flows generated by the borrowers’ underlying collateral, value of the underlying collateral, and priority of the lender’s lien on the property. Such factors are dependent upon various economic conditions and individual circumstances beyond the control of the Company. The Company is therefore subject to risk of loss. The Company believes its lending policies and procedures adequately minimize the potential exposure to such risks and that adequate provisions for loan and lease losses are provided for all known and inherent risks. Collateral and/or personal guarantees are required for a large majority of the Company’s loans. Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses The allowance for loan and lease losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan and lease loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off. The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Loans, for which the terms have been modified, and for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, are considered troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”) and classified as impaired. As part of the evaluation of impaired loans, the Company individually reviews for impairment all non-homogeneous loans internally classified as substandard or below. Generally, smaller impaired non-homogeneous loans and impaired homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. 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. Troubled debt restructurings are separately identified for impairment disclosures and are measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s effective rate at inception. If a troubled debt restructuring is considered to be a collateral dependent loan, the loan is reported, net, at the fair value of the collateral. For troubled debt restructurings that subsequently default, the Company determines the amount of reserve in accordance with the accounting policy for the allowance for loan and lease losses. The general component covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors. The historical loss experience, the primary factor, is determined by loan class and is based on the actual loss history experienced by the Bank over an actual three year rolling calculation. This actual loss experience is supplemented with other economic factors based on the risks present for each portfolio segment. This actual loss experience is supplemented with the exogenous factor adjustments based on the risks present for each loan category. These exogenous factors (nine total) include consideration of the following: concentrations of credit; delinquency & nonaccrual trends; economic & business conditions including evaluation of the national and regional economies and industries with significant loan concentrations; external factors including legal, regulatory or competitive pressures that may impact the loan portfolio; changes in the experience, ability, or size of the lending staff, management, or board of directors that may impact the loan portfolio; changes in underwriting standards, collection procedures, charge-off practices, or other changes in lending policies and procedures that may impact the loan portfolio; loss and recovery trends; changes in portfolio size and mix; and trends in problem loans. Purchased Credit-Impaired Loans The Company purchases groups of loans in conjunction with mergers, some of which have shown evidence of credit deterioration since origination. These purchased credit impaired loans are recorded at the amount paid, such that there is no carryover of the seller’s allowance for loan and lease losses. After acquisition, losses are recognized by an increase in the allowance for loan and lease losses. Such purchased credit-impaired loans (“PCI”) are accounted for individually. The Company estimates the amount and timing of expected cash flows for each loan and the expected cash flows in excess of amount paid is recorded as interest income over the remaining life of the loan (accretable yield). The excess of the loan’s contractual principal and interest over expected cash flows is not recorded (nonaccretable difference). A PCI loan may be resolved either through a sale of the loan, by working with the customer and obtaining partial or full repayment, by short sale of the collateral, or by foreclosure. A gain or loss on resolution would be recognized based on the difference between the proceeds received and the carrying amount of the loan. Payments received earlier than expected or in excess of expected cash flows from sales or other resolutions may result in the carrying value of a pool being reduced to zero even though outstanding contractual balances and expected cash flows remain related to loans in the pool. Once the carrying value of a pool is reduced to zero, any future proceeds, which may include cash or real estate acquired in foreclosure, from the remaining loans, representing further realization of accretable yield, are recognized as interest income upon receipt. PCI loans that met the criteria for nonaccrual may be considered performing, regardless of whether the customer is contractually delinquent, if management can reasonably estimate the timing and amount of the expected cash flows on such loans and if management expects to fully collect the new carrying value of the loans. As such, management may no longer consider the loans to be nonaccrual or nonperforming and may accrue interest on these loans, including the impact of any accretable discount. Composition of Loan Portfolio The following table sets forth the composition of the Company’s loan portfolio, including net deferred loan fees, at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015: December 31, June 30, 2016 2015 (in thousands) Commercial $ 630,425 $ 570,116 Commercial real estate 2,071,769 1,966,696 Commercial construction 443,277 328,838 Residential real estate 230,497 233,690 Consumer 1,976 2,454 Gross loans 3,377,944 3,101,794 Net deferred loan fees (2,324 ) (2,787 ) Total loans receivable $ 3,375,620 $ 3,099,007 At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 loan balances of approximately $1.6 billion were pledged to secure borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York. Purchased Credit-Impaired Loans The Company holds purchased loans for which there was, at their acquisition date, evidence of deterioration of credit quality since their origination and it was probable, at acquisition, that all contractually required payments would not be collected. The carrying amount of those loans is as follows at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. June 30, December 31, 2016 2015 (in thousands) Commercial $ 7,028 $ 7,078 Commercial real estate 1,030 1,775 Residential real estate - 328 Total carrying amount $ 8,058 $ 9,181 For those purchased loans disclosed above, the Company did not increase the allowance for loan and lease losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. The accretable yield, or income expected to be collected, on the purchased loans disclosed above for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 is as follows (in thousands): Three Months Three Months Ended June Ended June 30, 2016 30, 2015 Beginning balance $ 3,416 $ 4,250 New loans purchased - - Accretion of income (183 ) (237 ) Reclassification from nonaccretable differences - - Disposals - - Ending balance $ 3,233 $ 4,013 Six Months Six Months Ended June Ended June 30, 2016 30, 2015 Beginning balance $ 3,599 $ 4,467 New loans purchased - - Accretion of income (366 ) (454 ) Reclassification from nonaccretable differences - - Disposals - - Ending balance $ 3,233 $ 4,013 The following table presents information about the recorded investment in loan receivables on nonaccrual status by segment at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015: Loans Receivable on Nonaccrual Status June 30, December 31, 2016 2015 (in thousands) Commercial $ 9,480 $ 6,586 Commercial real estate 9,478 9,112 Commercial construction - 1,479 Residential real estate 2,953 3,559 Total loans receivable on nonaccrual status $ 21,911 $ 20,736 The Company continuously monitors the credit quality of its loans receivable. In addition to its internal staff, the Company utilizes the services of a third party loan review firm to rate the credit quality of its loans receivable. Credit quality is monitored by reviewing certain credit quality indicators. Assets classified “Pass” are deemed to possess average to superior credit quality, requiring no more than normal attention. Assets classified as “Special Mention” have generally acceptable credit quality yet possess higher risk characteristics/circumstances than satisfactory assets. Such conditions include strained liquidity, slow pay, stale financial statements, or other conditions that require more stringent attention from the lending staff. These conditions, if not corrected, may weaken the loan quality or inadequately protect the Company’s credit position at some future date. Assets are classified “Substandard” if the asset has a well-defined weakness that requires management’s attention to a greater degree than for loans classified special mention. Such weakness, if left uncorrected, could possibly result in the compromised ability of the loan to perform to contractual requirements. An asset is classified as “Doubtful” if it is inadequately protected by the net worth and/or paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral, if any, that secures the obligation. Assets classified as doubtful include assets for which there is a “distinct possibility” that a degree of loss will occur if the inadequacies are not corrected.

The policy of the Company generally is to grant commercial, mortgage and consumer loans to residents and businesses within its market area. The ability of borrowers abilities to repay their obligations are dependent upon various factors, including the borrowers’ income and net worth, cash flows generated by the borrowers’ underlying collateral, value of the underlying collateral, and priority of the lender’s lien on the property. Such factors are dependent upon various economic conditions and individual circumstances beyond the control of the Company. The Company is therefore subject to risk of loss. The Company believes its lending policies and procedures adequately minimize the potential exposure to such risks and that adequate provisions for loan and lease losses are provided for all known and inherent risks. Collateral and/or personal guarantees are required for virtually all loans. A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 90 days contractually past due under the modified terms. Loans modified in troubled debt restructurings totaled $99.2 million at June 30, 2016, of which $1.4 million were on nonaccrual status and $97.8 million were performing troubled debt restructurings. At December 31, 2015, loans modified in troubled debt restructurings totaled $86.6 million, of which $0.7 million were on nonaccrual status and $85.9 million were performing troubled debt restructurings. The Company has allocated $7.8 and $4.5 million in specific allocations with respect to loans whose loan terms had been modified in troubled debt restructurings as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Performing TDRs as of June 30, 2016 increased the allowance for loan and lease losses by $1.5 and $3.3 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. Performing TDRs as of December 31, 2015 did not increase the allowance for loan and lease losses during the year ended December 31, 2015. The $7.8 million in specific allocations referenced above were associated with taxi medallion lending and were calculated based on the present value of estimated cash flows, including contractual debt interest service through maturity, and principal repayments based on the estimated fair value of the collateral excluding any consideration for personal guarantees of borrowers, which provide an additional source of repayment but cannot be relied upon. The valuation per corporate medallion used for the calculation at June 30, 2016 was approximately $750,000. An additional $3.3 million specific allocation was required at June 30, 2016 due to a decline in the Company’s estimated valuation of taxi medallions since December 31, 2015, when the specific allocation was $4.5 million.
