Loans | LoansManagement segments the Banks' loan portfolio to a level that enables risk and performance monitoring according to similar risk characteristics. Loans are segmented based on the underlying collateral characteristics. Categories include commercial, financial, and agricultural, real estate, and installment loans. Real estate loans are further segmented into three categories: residential, commercial, and construction, while installment loans are classified as either consumer automobile loans or other installment loans. The following table presents the related aging categories of loans, by class, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022: June 30, 2023 Past Due Past Due 90 30 To 89 Days Or More (In Thousands) Days Current Total & Still Accruing Commercial, financial, and agricultural $ 270 $ 207,871 $ 208,174 $ 33 Real estate mortgage: Residential 2,578 740,186 743,705 941 Commercial 2,513 515,200 517,713 — Construction 15 53,471 53,486 — Consumer automobile loans 1,832 232,985 234,956 139 Other consumer installment loans 126 9,988 10,121 7 $ 7,334 $ 1,759,701 1,768,155 $ 1,120 Net deferred loan fees and discounts 1,248 Allowance for credit losses (11,592) Loans, net $ 1,757,811 December 31, 2022 Past Due Past Due 90 30 To 89 Days Or More Non- (In Thousands) Days & Still Accruing Accrual Current Total Commercial, financial, and agricultural $ 94 $ — $ 432 $ 189,935 $ 190,461 Real estate mortgage: Residential 5,472 1,120 524 701,093 708,209 Commercial 2,564 60 2,659 495,349 500,632 Construction 511 — — 42,797 43,308 Consumer automobile loans 2,089 80 — 183,943 186,112 Other consumer installment loans 152 15 — 10,194 10,361 $ 10,882 $ 1,275 $ 3,615 $ 1,623,311 1,639,083 Net deferred loan fees and discounts 648 Allowance for loan losses (15,637) Loans, net $ 1,624,094 The Allowance for Credit Losses ("ACL") related to loans consists of loans evaluated collectively and individually for expected credit losses. The ACL related to loans represents an estimate of expected credit losses over the expected life of the loans as of the balance sheet date and is recorded as a reduction to net loans. The ACL for off balance sheet credit exposure includes estimated losses on unfunded loan commitments, letters of credit and other off balance sheet credit exposures and is recorded in other liabilities. The total ACL is increased by charges to expense, through the provision for credit losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries.

Loan modifications reported below do not include modifications with insignificant payment delays. ASU 2022-02 lists the following factors when considering if the loan modification has insignificant payment delays: (1) the amount of the restructured payments subject to the delay is insignificant relative to the unpaid principal or collateral value of the debt and will result in an insignificant shortfall in the contractual amount due, and (2) the delay in timing of the restructured payment period is insignificant relative to the frequency of payments due under the debt, the debt’s original contractual maturity or the debt’s original expected duration. The ACL incorporates an estimate of lifetime expected credit losses and is recorded upon asset origination or acquisition. The starting point for the estimate of the ACL is historical loss information, which includes losses from modifications of receivables to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The Corporation uses a probability of default/loss given default model to determine the allowance for credit losses. An assessment of whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty is made on the date of a modification. There were no loan modifications completed during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. There were no loan modifications considered to be TDRs completed during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. There were no loan modifications made during the twelve months prior to June 30, 2023 that defaulted during the six months ended June 30, 2023. There were no loan modifications considered to be a TDR made during the twelve months previous to June 30, 2022 that defaulted during the six months ended June 31, 2022. Loans considered modifications amounted to $7,087,000 and $7,468,000 as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The amount of foreclosed residential real estate held at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, totaled $2,112,000 and $950,000, respectively. Consumer mortgage loans secured by residential real estate properties for which formal foreclosure proceedings are in process at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, totaled $456,000 and $890,000, respectively. Internal Credit Ratings Management uses a ten point internal credit rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio. The first six categories are considered not criticized, and are aggregated as “Pass” rated. The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions. The special mention category includes assets that are currently protected but are potentially weak, resulting in an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a substandard classification. Loans in the substandard category have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt, and have a distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if the weaknesses are not corrected. All loans greater than 90 days past due are evaluated for substandard classification. Loans in the doubtful category exhibit the same weaknesses found in the substandard loans; however, the weaknesses are more pronounced. Such loans are static and collection in full is improbable. However, these loans are not yet rated as loss because certain events may occur which would salvage the debt. Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and charge-off is imminent. To help ensure that credit ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay a loan as agreed, the Banks have a structured loan rating process with several layers of internal and external oversight. Generally, consumer and residential mortgage loans are included in the pass category unless a specific action, such as bankruptcy, repossession, or death occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit event. An external semi-annual loan review of large commercial relationships is performed, as well as a sample of smaller transactions. The 2023 loan review will evaluate 55% of the Banks' average outstanding commercial portfolio which can consist of outstanding loans, commercial real estate mortgages and outstanding commitments. Detailed reviews, including plans for resolution, are performed on loans classified as substandard, doubtful, or loss on a quarterly basis.

For commercial construction, residential construction, commercial and industrial, and commercial real estate, an internal credit rating process is used. Management believes that internal credit ratings are the most relevant credit quality indicator for these types of loans. The migration of loans through the various internal credit rating categories is a significant component of the ACL methodology for these loans, which bases the probability of default on this migration. Assigning credit ratings involves judgment. The Company's loan review process provide a separate assessment of credit rating accuracy. Credit ratings may be changed based on the ongoing monitoring procedures performed by loan officers or credit administration staff or if specific loan review assessments identify a deterioration or an improvement in the loans. Management considers the performance of the loan portfolio and its impact on the ACL. The Company does not assign internal Credit ratings to smaller balance, homogeneous loans, such as home equity, residential mortgage, and consumer automobile loans. For these loans, the most relevant credit quality indicator is delinquency status and management evaluates credit quality based on the aging status of the loan. Historical loss trends are used in the estimation of losses in the current portfolio. These historical loss amounts are modified by other qualitative factors. A historical charge-off factor is calculated utilizing the charge-off and recovery data over the past ten years. Management has identified a number of additional qualitative factors which it uses to supplement the historical charge-off factor because these factors are likely to cause estimated credit losses associated with the existing loan pools to differ from historical loss experience. The additional factors that are evaluated quarterly and updated using information obtained from internal, regulatory, and governmental sources are: national and local economic trends and conditions; trends in volumes and terms of loans; effects of changes in lending policies; experience, ability, and depth of lending staff; value of underlying collateral; and concentrations of credit from a loan type, industry and/or geographic standpoint. Management reviews the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis in order to make appropriate and timely adjustments to the ACL. When information confirms all or part of specific loans to be uncollectible, these amounts are promptly charged off against the ACL.

The increase in provision for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023 for consumer auto was loan volume driven. The decrease in provision for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023 for commercial, financial, and agricultural was the result of improving credit metrics coupled with a large recovery during the three month period ended June 30, 2023 which effected the historical loss rate calculations. The increase in provision for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023 for commercial real estate was primarily the result of growth within this segment of the loan portfolio. The Company grants commercial, industrial, residential, and installment loans to customers primarily throughout north-east and central Pennsylvania. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of its debtors’ ability to honor their contracts is dependent on the economic conditions within this region. The Company has a concentration of the following to gross loans at June 30, 2023 and 2022: June 30, 2023 2022 Owners of residential rental properties 18.79 % 19.65 % Owners of commercial rental properties 14.80 % 16.11 % The following table presents the balance in the allowance for loan losses and the recorded investment in loans by portfolio segment based on impairment method as of December 31, 2022: December 31, 2022 Commercial, Financial, and Agricultural Real Estate Mortgages Consumer Automobile Other consumer installment Unallocated (In Thousands) Residential Commercial Construction Totals Allowance for Loan Losses: Ending allowance balance attributable to loans: Individually evaluated for impairment $ 4 $ 111 $ 827 $ — $ — $ 19 $ — $ 961 Collectively evaluated for impairment 1,910 4,950 5,283 188 1,617 90 638 14,676 Total ending allowance balance $ 1,914 $ 5,061 $ 6,110 $ 188 $ 1,617 $ 109 $ 638 $ 15,637 Loans: Individually evaluated for impairment $ 698 $ 4,321 $ 6,195 $ — $ — $ 19 $ 11,233 Collectively evaluated for impairment 189,763 703,888 494,437 43,308 186,112 10,342 1,627,850 Total ending loans balance $ 190,461 $ 708,209 $ 500,632 $ 43,308 $ 186,112 $ 10,361 $ 1,639,083 |
