Loans | Note 5 – Loans The Company grants loans primarily to customers throughout north central, central and south central Pennsylvania and the southern tier of New York. Although the Company had a diversified loan portfolio at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, a substantial portion of its debtors' ability to honor their contracts is dependent on the economic conditions within these regions. The following table summarizes the primary segments of the loan portfolio and how those segments are analyzed within the allowance for loan losses as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 (in thousands): March 31, 2017 Total Loans Individually evaluated for impairment Loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality Collectively evaluated for impairment Real estate loans: Residential $ 203,817 $ 945 $ 35 $ 202,837 Commercial 267,097 6,347 1,965 258,785 Agricultural 156,299 3,476 737 152,086 Construction 26,118 - - 26,118 Consumer 10,508 2 1 10,505 Other commercial loans 59,800 5,281 863 53,656 Other agricultural loans 24,227 1,612 - 22,615 State and political subdivision loans 97,441 - - 97,441 Total 845,307 17,663 3,601 824,043 Allowance for loan losses 9,405 404 - 9,001 Net loans $ 835,902 $ 17,259 $ 3,601 $ 815,042 December 31, 2016 Real estate loans: Residential $ 207,423 $ 957 $ 35 $ 206,431 Commercial 252,577 5,742 1,969 244,866 Agricultural 123,624 3,346 738 119,540 Construction 25,441 - - 25,441 Consumer 11,005 - 4 11,001 Other commercial loans 58,639 5,994 621 52,024 Other agricultural loans 23,388 1,654 - 21,734 State and political subdivision loans 97,514 - - 97,514 Total 799,611 17,693 3,367 778,551 Allowance for loan losses 8,886 487 - 8,399 Net loans $ 790,725 $ 17,206 $ 3,367 $ 770,152 Purchased loans acquired in The First National Bank of Fredericksburg (FNB) acquisition were recorded at fair value on their purchase date without a carryover of the related allowance for loan losses. Upon acquisition, the Company evaluated whether an acquired loan was within the scope of ASC 310-30, Receivables-Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. Purchased credit-impaired ("PCI") loans are loans that have evidence of credit deterioration since origination and it is probable at the date of acquisition that the Company will not collect all contractually required principal and interest payments. Based upon management's review, there were no material increases or decreases in the expected cash flows of these loans between December 11, 2015 (the "acquisition date") and March 31, 2017. The fair value of PCI loans, on the acquisition date, was determined, primarily based on the fair value of the loans' collateral. The carrying value of PCI loans was $3,601,000 and $3,367,000 at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The carrying value of the PCI loans was determined by projected discounted contractual cash flows. Changes in the accretable yield for PCI loans were as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively (in thousands): March 31, 2017 March 31, 2016 Balance at beginning of period $ 389 $ 637 Accretion (114 ) (86 ) Balance at end of period $ 275 $ 551 The following table presents additional information regarding loans acquired with specific evidence of deterioration in credit quality under ASC 310-30 (in thousands): March 31, 2017 December 31, 2016 Outstanding balance $ 6,688 $ 6,487 Carrying amount 3,601 3,367 The segments of the Company's loan portfolio are disaggregated into classes to a level that allows management to monitor risk and performance. Residential real estate mortgages consist primarily of 15 to 30 year first mortgages on residential real estate, while residential real estate home equity loans are consumer purpose installment loans or lines of credit with terms of 15 years or less secured by a mortgage which is often a second lien on residential real estate. Commercial real estate loans are business purpose loans secured by a mortgage on commercial real estate. Agricultural real estate loans are loans secured by a mortgage on real estate used in agriculture production. Construction real estate loans are loans secured by residential or commercial real estate used during the construction phase of residential and commercial projects. Consumer loans are typically unsecured or primarily secured by assets other than real estate and overdraft lines of credit are typically secured by customer deposit accounts. Other commercial loans are loans for commercial purposes primarily secured by non-real estate collateral. Other agricultural loans are loans for agricultural purposes primarily secured by non-real estate collateral. State and political subdivision loans are loans to state and local municipalities for capital and operating expenses or tax free loans used to finance commercial development. Management considers other commercial loans, other agricultural loans, state and political subdivision loans, commercial real estate loans and agricultural real estate loans which are 90 days or more past due to be impaired. Management will also consider a loan impaired based on other factors it becomes aware of, including the customer's results of operations and cash flows or if the loan is modified in a troubled debt restructuring. In addition, c ertain residential mortgages, home equity and consumer loans that are cross collateralized with commercial relationships that are determined to be impaired may also be classified as impaired.

The first five categories are considered not criticized and are aggregated as "Pass" rated. The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions. The definitions of each rating are defined below: · Pass (Grades 1-5) – These loans are to customers with credit quality ranging from an acceptable to very high quality and are protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the value of the underlying collateral. · Special Mention (Grade 6) – This loan grade is in accordance with regulatory guidance and includes loans where a potential weakness or risk exists, which could cause a more serious problem if not corrected. · Substandard (Grade 7) – This loan grade is in accordance with regulatory guidance and includes loans that have a well-defined weakness based on objective evidence and be characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. · Doubtful (Grade 8) – This loan grade is in accordance with regulatory guidance and includes loans that have all the weaknesses inherent in a substandard asset. In addition, these weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable, based on existing circumstances. · Loss (Grade 9) – This loan grade is in accordance with regulatory guidance and includes loans that are considered uncollectible, or of such value that continuance as an asset is not warranted. To help ensure that risk ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay the loan as agreed, the Company's loan rating process includes several layers of internal and external oversight. The Company's loan officers are responsible for the timely and accurate risk rating of the loans in each of their portfolios at origination and on an ongoing basis under the supervision of management. All commercial and agricultural loans are reviewed annually to ensure the appropriateness of the loan grade. In addition, the Company engages an external consultant on at least an annual basis to 1) review a minimum of 55% of the dollar volume of the commercial loan portfolio on an annual basis, 2) review new loans originated for over $1.0 million in the last year, 3) review a majority of borrowers with commitments greater than or equal to $1.0 million, 4) review selected loan relationships over $750,000 which are over 30 days past due or classified Special Mention, Substandard, Doubtful, or Loss, and 5) such other loans which management or the consultant deems appropriate.

Non-performing loans include those loans that are considered nonaccrual, described in more detail below, and all loans past due 90 or more days and still accruing.

Additionally, if management is made aware of other information including bankruptcy, repossession, death, or legal proceedings, the loan may be placed on non-accrual status. If a loan is 90 days or more past due and is well secured and in the process of collection, it may still be considered accruing. The following table reflects the financing receivables, excluding PCI loans, on non-accrual status as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The balances are presented by class of financing receivable (in thousands): March 31, 2017 December 31, 2016 Real estate loans: Mortgages $ 1,309 $ 1,475 Home Equity 85 95 Commercial 4,448 4,445 Agricultural 1,322 1,340 Consumer 90 42 Other commercial loans 3,228 4,057 $ 10,482 $ 11,454 Troubled Debt Restructurings In situations where, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower's financial difficulties, management may grant a concession for other than an insignificant period of time to the borrower that would not otherwise be considered, the related loan is classified as a Troubled Debt Restructuring (TDR). Management strives to identify borrowers in financial difficulty early and work with them to structure more affordable terms before their loan reaches nonaccrual status. These restructured terms may include rate reductions, principal forgiveness, payment forbearance and other actions intended to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral. In cases where borrowers are granted new terms that provide for a reduction of interest or principal, or both, management measures any impairment on the restructuring by calculating the present value of the revised loan terms and comparing this balance to the Company's investment in the loan prior to the restructuring. As these loans are individually evaluated, they are excluded from pooled portfolios when calculating the allowance for loan and lease losses and a separate allocation within the allowance for loan and lease losses is provided. Management continually evaluates loans that are considered TDRs, including payment history under the modified loan terms, the borrower's ability to continue to repay the loan based on continued evaluation of their operating results and cash flows from operations. Based on this evaluation management would no longer consider a loan to be a TDR when the relevant facts support such a conclusion. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, included within the allowance for loan losses are reserves of $27,000 and $29,000 respectively, that are associated with loans modified as TDRs. Loan modifications that are considered TDRs completed during the three months ended March 31, 2017 were as follows (dollars in thousands): For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 Number of contracts Pre-modification Outstanding Recorded Investment Post-Modification Outstanding Recorded Investment Interest Modification Term Modification Interest Modification Term Modification Interest Modification Term Modification Real estate loans: Commercial - 2 $ - $ 703 $ - $ 703 Total - 2 $ - $ 703 $ - $ 703 There were no loan modifications that were considered TDRs during the three months ended March 31, 2016. Recidivism, or the borrower defaulting on its obligation pursuant to a modified loan, results in the loan once again becoming a non-accrual loan. Recidivism occurs at a notably higher rate than do defaults on new origination loans, so modified loans present a higher risk of loss than do new origination loans. There were no loans that were modified as TDRs during each 12-month period prior to the current reporting periods, which began January 1, 2017 and 2016 (three month periods) that subsequently defaulted during these reporting periods. Allowance for Loan Losses The following table segregates the allowance for loan losses (ALLL) into the amount required for loans individually evaluated for impairment and the amount required for loans collectively evaluated for impairment as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively (in thousands): March 31, 2017 December 31, 2016 Individually evaluated for impairment Collectively evaluated for impairment Total Individually evaluated for impairment Collectively evaluated for impairment Total Real estate loans: Residential $ 38 $ 1,004 $ 1,042 $ 32 $ 1,032 $ 1,064 Commercial 47 3,618 3,665 45 3,544 3,589 Agricultural 103 1,849 1,952 54 1,440 1,494 Construction - 46 46 - 47 47 Consumer 2 121 123 - 122 122 Other commercial loans 195 1,020 1,215 326 1,001 1,327 Other agricultural loans 19 287 306 30 282 312 State and political subdivision loans - 824 824 - 833 833 Unallocated - 232 232 - 98 98 Total $ 404 $ 9,001 $ 9,405 $ 487 $ 8,399 $ 8,886 The following tables roll forward the balance of the ALLL by portfolio segment for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively (in thousands): For the three months ended March 31, 2017 Balance at December 31, 2016 Charge-offs Recoveries Provision Balance at March 31, 2017 Real estate loans: Residential $ 1,064 $ (45 ) $ - $ 23 $ 1,042 Commercial 3,589 (41 ) 4 113 3,665 Agricultural 1,494 458 1,952 Construction 47 - - (1 ) 46 Consumer 122 (28 ) 10 19 123 Other commercial loans 1,327 - 9 (121 ) 1,215 Other agricultural loans 312 (5 ) (1 ) 306 State and political subdivision loans 833 - - (9 ) 824 Unallocated 98 - - 134 232 Total $ 8,886 $ (119 ) $ 23 $ 615 $ 9,405 For the three months ended March 31, 2016 Balance at December 31, 2015 Charge-offs Recoveries Provision Balance at March 31, 2016 Real estate loans: Residential $ 905 $ - $ - $ 61 $ 966 Commercial 3,376 - 4 153 3,533 Agricultural 409 (4 ) 405 Construction 24 - - (10 ) 14 Consumer 102 (15 ) 39 (30 ) 96 Other commercial loans 1,183 - 6 33 1,222 Other agricultural loans 122 3 125 State and political - subdivision loans 593 - - 73 666 Unallocated 392 - - (144 ) 248 Total $ 7,106 $ (15 ) $ 49 $ 135 $ 7,275 The Company allocates the ALLL based on the factors described below, which conform to the Company's loan classification policy and credit quality measurements. In reviewing risk within the Company's loan portfolio, management has determined there to be several different risk categories within the loan portfolio. The ALLL consists of amounts applicable to: (i) residential real estate loans; (ii) residential real estate home equity loans; (iii) commercial real estate loans; (iv) agricultural real estate loans; (v) real estate construction loans; (vi) other commercial and agricultural loans; (vii) consumer loans; (viii) other agricultural loans and (ix) state and political subdivision loans. Factors considered in this process include general loan terms, collateral, and availability of historical data to support the analysis. Historical loss percentages are calculated and used as the basis for calculating allowance allocations. Certain qualitative factors are evaluated to determine additional inherent risks in the loan portfolio, which are not necessarily reflected in the historical loss percentages. These factors are then added to the historical allocation percentage to get the adjusted factor to be applied to non-classified loans. The following qualitative factors are analyzed: · Level of and trends in delinquencies and impaired/classified loans § Change in volume and severity of past due loans § Volume of non-accrual loans § Volume and severity of classified, adversely or graded loans; · Level of and trends in charge-offs and recoveries; · Trends in volume, terms and nature of the loan portfolio; · Effects of any changes in risk selection and underwriting standards and any other changes in lending and recovery policies, procedures and practices; · Changes in the quality of the Company's loan review system; · Experience, ability and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; · National, state, regional and local economic trends and business conditions § General economic conditions § Unemployment rates § Inflation rate/ Consumer Price Index § Changes in values of underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans; · Industry conditions including the effects of external factors such as competition, legal, and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated credit losses; · Existence and effect of any credit concentrations, and changes in the level of such concentrations; and · Any change in the level of board oversight. The Company analyzes its loan portfolio each quarter to determine the adequacy of its ALLL. Loans determined to be TDRs are impaired and for purposes of estimating the ALLL must be individually evaluated for impairment. In calculating the impairment, the Company calculates the present value utilizing an analysis of discounted cash flows. If the present value calculated is below the recorded investment of the loan, impairment is recognized by a charge to the provision for loan and lease losses and a credit to the ALLL. We continually review the model utilized in calculating the required ALLL. The following are explanations for significant changes in the allowance by portfolio segment during the first three months of 2017: · Residential - There was an increase in the historical loss factor for residential loans when comparing March 31, 2017 to December 31, 2016. The specific reserve for residential loans increased slightly from December 31, 2016 to March 31, 2017. The qualitative factor level of and trend in charge-offs was increased for residential loans due the increase in charged off loans in the quarter. The qualitative factors for changes in levels of and trends in delinquencies, impaired/classified loans were decreased for residential loans due to the decrease in past due, non-accrual and classified loans. The qualitative factor for national, state, regional and local economic trends and business conditions were decreased for residential loan categories due to a decrease in the unemployment rates in the local economy during 2017. · Commercial real estate– There was an increase in the historical loss factor for commercial real estate loans when comparing March 31, 2017 to December 31, 2016. The specific reserve for commercial real estate loans increased slightly from December 31, 2016 to March 31, 2017. The qualitative factor for national, state, regional and local economic trends and business conditions was decreased for all commercial real estate loans due to a decrease in the unemployment rates in the local economy during 2017. The qualitative factors for changes in levels of and trends in delinquencies, impaired/classified loans were decreased for commercial real estate loans due to the decrease in past due and classified loans. · Agricultural real estate – There was no change in the historical loss factor for agricultural real estate loans from December 31, 2016 to March 31, 2017. The specific reserve for agricultural real estate loans increased from December 31, 2016 to March 31, 2017. The qualitative factor for industry conditions, including the effects of external factors such as competition, legal, and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated credit losses, was decreased for agricultural real estate due to the improvement in the ratio of the price received for product sold versus feed costs that has occurred in 2017. The qualitative factor for national, state, regional and local economic trends and business conditions was decreased for agricultural real estate loans due to a decrease in the unemployment rates in the local economy during 2017. · Other commercial - There was a decrease in the historical loss factor for other commercial loans when comparing December 31, 2016 to March 31, 2017.
