Loans and the Allowance for Loan Losses | Note 6. Loans and the Allowance for Loan Losses Loans 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 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, 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: commercial, commercial real estate, commercial construction, residential real estate (including home equity) and consumer. The recognition of interest income on commercial, commercial real estate, commercial construction and residential loans is 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 our 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 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. Loans Held-for-Sale Residential mortgage loans, originated and intended for sale in the secondary market, are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or estimated fair value as determined by outstanding commitments from investors. For these loans originated and intended for sale, gains and losses on loan sales (sale proceeds minus carrying value) are recorded in other income and direct loan origination costs and fees are deferred at origination of the loan and are recognized in other income upon sale of the loan. Other loans held-for-sale are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or estimated fair value. A portion of these loans, taxi medallion loans, have no material observable trading in any market. Fair value is established with consideration of a range of market participant indications, for all or parts of these loans, and discounted cash flow analyses, which have significant unobservable inputs. See Note 7 for further discussion. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recorded as a valuation allowance and charged to earnings. Allowance for Loan losses The allowance for loan 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 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. TDRs 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 TDR is considered to be a collateral dependent loan, the loan is reported, net, at the fair value of the collateral. For TDRs that subsequently defaults, the Company determines the amount of reserve in accordance with the accounting policy for the allowance for loan 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 and with the exogenous factor adjustments based on the risks present for each loan category. These exogenous factors 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 acquires 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 their estimated fair value, such that there is no carryover of the seller’s allowance for loan losses (“ALLL”). After acquisition, probable incurred credit losses are recognized by an increase in the ALLL. Such purchased credit-impaired loans (“PCI”) are identified on an individual basis. 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. 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. Loans held-for-sale The following table presents loans held-for-sale by loan segment: June 30, December 31, 2017 2016 (dollars in thousands) Commercial $ 50,891 $ 70,105 Commercial real estate - 7,712 Residential real estate 233 188 Total carrying amount $ 51,124 $ 78,005 As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the commercial loans held-for-sale segment included the Company’s entire taxi medallion portfolio, with a carrying value of $50.9 million and $65.6 million, net of $12.3 million and $-0- million valuation allowance, respectively.

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 recorded investment of those loans is as follows at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. June 30, December 31, 2017 2016 (dollars in thousands) Commercial $ 7,951 $ 7,098 Commercial real estate 260 982 Total carrying amount $ 8,211 $ 8,080 For those purchased loans disclosed above, the Company did not increase the allowance for loan losses during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016. No allowances for loan losses were reversed during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. The accretable yield, or income expected to be collected, on the purchased credit-impaired loans above is as follows for the following periods: Three Months Three Months Ended Ended June 30, 2017 June 30, 2016 (dollars in thousands) Balance at beginning of period $ 2,674 $ 3,416 Accretion of income (178 ) (183 ) Balance at end of period $ 2,496 $ 3,233 Six Months Six Months Ended Ended June 30, 2017 June 30, 2016 (dollars in thousands) Balance at beginning of period $ 2,860 $ 3,599 Accretion of income (364 ) (366 ) Balance at end of period $ 2,496 $ 3,233 Loans Receivable on Nonaccrual Status The following tables presents nonaccrual loans included in loans receivable by loan segment as of the periods presented: June 30, December 31, 2017 2016 (dollars in thousands) Commercial $ 1,351 $ 1,460 Commercial real estate 8,571 1,081 Residential real estate 4,133 3,193 Total loans receivable on nonaccrual status $ 14,055 $ 5,734 Nonaccrual loans and loans 90 days or greater past due and still accruing include both smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and loans individually evaluated for impairment. The Company continuously monitors the credit quality of its loans receivable. In addition to its internal monitoring, the Company utilizes the services of a third-party loan review firm to periodically validate the credit quality of its loans receivable on a sample basis. 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. All loans past due 90 days or greater and all impaired loans are included in the appropriate category below.

Modifications may include interest rate reductions, principal or interest forgiveness, forbearance, and other actions intended to minimize economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of collateral. Generally, a nonaccrual loan that has been modified in a troubled debt restructuring remains on nonaccrual status for a period of six months to demonstrate that the borrower is able to meet the terms of the modified loan. However, performance prior to the modification, or significant events that coincide with the modification, are included in assessing whether the borrower can meet the new terms and may result in the loan being returned to accrual status at the time of loan modification or after a shorter performance period. If the borrower’s ability to meet the revised payment schedule is uncertain, the loan remains on nonaccrual status. At June 30, 2017, there were no commitments to lend additional funds to borrowers whose loans were on nonaccrual status or were contractually past due 90 days or greater and still accruing interest, or whose terms have been modified in troubled debt restructurings. The following table presents a rollforward of TDRs and the related changes to the allowance for loan losses (“ALLL”) that occurred for the periods presented: Six Months Ended Year Ended June 30, 2017 December 31, 2016 (dollars in thousands) Recorded Recorded Investment ALLL Investment ALLL Troubled Debt Restructurings Beginning balance $ 13,818 $ - $ 86,629 $ 4,500 Additions 3,079 - 26,325 8,250 Payoffs/paydowns (1,226 ) - (2,616 ) - Transfers (580 ) - (96,520 ) - Other - - - (12,750 ) Ending balance $ 15,091 $ - $ 13,818 $ - TDRs totaled $15.1 million at June 30, 2017, of which $4.9 million were on nonaccrual status and $10.2 million were performing under restructured terms. At December 31, 2016, TDRs, totaled $13.8 million, of which $0.5 million were on nonaccrual status and $13.3 million were performing under restructured terms. TDRs as of June 30, 2017 did not increase the ALLL during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. There were no charge-offs in connection with a loan modification at the time of modification during the three or six months ended June 30, 2017. There were no TDRs for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. TDRs 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. The Company had allocated $7.8 in specific allocations with respect to loans whose loan terms had been modified in troubled debt restructurings as of June 30, 2016. TDRs as of June 30, 2016 increased the ALLL by $1.5 and $3.3 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. 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.
