LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES | NOTE 3. LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES Upon adoption of ASC 326 or CECL, at January 1, 2021, the Company evaluates its risk characteristics of loans based on regulatory call report code with segmentation based on the underlying collateral for certain loan types. Prior to the adoption of ASC 326, under the incurred loss model, the Company evaluated its risk characteristics of loans based on purpose of the loans. The following is a summary of total loans by regulatory call report code segmentation based on underlying collateral for certain loan types: June 30, December 31, (in thousands) 2021 2020 Commercial construction $ 161,192 $ 117,882 Commercial real estate owner occupied 233,825 219,217 Commercial real estate non-owner occupied 713,889 716,776 Tax exempt 44,079 47,862 Commercial and industrial 370,074 355,684 Residential real estate 891,806 995,216 Home equity 90,440 100,096 Consumer other 10,255 10,152 Total loans 2,515,560 2,562,885 Allowance for credit losses 22,815 19,082 Net loans $ 2,492,745 $ 2,543,803 Total unamortized net costs and premiums included in loan totals were as follows: June 30, December 31, (in thousands) 2021 2020 Unamortized net loan origination costs $ 3,336 $ 5,157 Unamortized net premium on purchased loans (77) (85) Total unamortized net costs and premiums $ 3,259 $ 5,072 The Company elected to exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost basis of loans disclosed throughout this footnote. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, accrued interest receivable for loans totaled $12.1 million and $11.4 million, respectively, and is included in the “other assets” line item on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The CARES Act and subsequent legislation established the Payroll Protection Program (PPP), administered directly by the Small Business Administration (SBA). The Company has participated in both 2020 and 2021 rounds of funding. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had 1,250 and 746 PPP loans outstanding, with an outstanding principal balance of $65.9 million and $53.8 million, respectively. The increase reflects the 2021 round of funding of 1,233 PPP loans with and outstanding principal balance of $62.7 million. The PPP loans are fully guaranteed by the SBA and may be eligible for forgiveness by the SBA to the extent that the proceeds are used to cover eligible costs. PPP loans are included in the commercial and industrial portfolio segment. Characteristics of each loan portfolio segment are as follows: Commercial construction Commercial real estate owner occupied and non-owner occupied Tax Exempt Commercial and industrial loans Residential real estate Home equity - Consumer other Allowance for Credit Losses The Allowance for Credit Losses (ACL) is comprised of the allowance for loan losses and the allowance for unfunded commitments which is accounted for as a separate liability in other liabilities on the balance sheet. The level of the ACL represents management’s estimate of expected credit losses over the expected life of the loans at the balance sheet date. Upon adoption of CECL on January 1, 2021, the Company replaced the incurred loss impairment model that recognizes losses when it becomes probable that a credit loss will be incurred, with a requirement to recognize lifetime expected credit losses immediately when a financial asset is originated or purchased. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Loans, or portions thereof, are charged off against the allowance when they are deemed uncollectible. Expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged-off and expected to be charged off. The ACL is comprised of reserves measured on a collective (pool) basis based on a lifetime loss-rate model when similar risk characteristics exist. Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis, generally larger non-accruing commercial loans and TDRs.

evaluated on an individual basis. For loans that are individually evaluated and collateral dependent, financial loans where the Company has determined that foreclosure of the collateral is probable, or where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the Company expects repayment of the financial asset to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the ACL is measured based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the amortized cost basis of the asset as of the measurement date. The following table presents the amortized cost basis of collateral-dependent loans by loan portfolio segment for the periods ended.

The Company identified loan relationships having aggregate balances in excess of $150 thousand with potential credit weaknesses. Such loan relationships were identified primarily through the Company's analysis of internal loan evaluations, past due loan reports, TDRs and loans adversely classified. Each loan so identified was then individually evaluated for impairment. Substantially all impaired loans have historically been collateral dependent, meaning repayment of the loan was expected or was considered to be provided solely from the sale of the loan's underlying collateral. For such loans, the Company measured impairment based on the fair value of the loan's collateral, which is generally determined utilizing current appraisals. A specific reserve was established in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the recorded investment in each impaired loan over the fair value of its underlying collateral, less estimated costs to sell. The Company's policy was to re-evaluate the fair value of collateral dependent loans at least every twelve months unless there is a known deterioration in the collateral's value, in which case a new appraisal is obtained. The tables reflects the activity associated with impaired loans in 2020 prior to the adoption of CECL.

These concessions typically result from the Company’s loss mitigation activities and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance, or other actions. Certain TDRs are classified as non-performing at the time of restructure and may only be returned to performing status after considering the borrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally six months. TDRs are evaluated individually for impairment and may result in a specific allowance amount allocated to an individual loan. The following tables include the recorded investment and number of modifications identified during the periods ended. The table includes the recorded investment in the loans prior to a modification and also the recorded investment in the loans after the loans were restructured. Modifications may include adjustments to interest rates, payment amounts, extensions of maturity, court ordered concessions or other actions intended to minimize economic loss and avoid foreclosure or repossession of collateral. There were no modifications qualifying as TDR’s for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and no modifications qualifying as TDR’s for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

The evaluation of certain loans individually for specific impairment includes loans that were previously classified as TDRs or continue to be classified as TDRs. Modifications in response to COVID-19 The Company began offering short-term loan modifications to assist borrowers during the COVID-19 national emergency. The CARES Act along with a joint agency statement issued by banking agencies, provides that short-term modifications made in response to COVID-19 do not need to be accounted for as a TDR. Accordingly, the Company does not account for such loan modifications as TDRs. See Note 1 - Basis of Presentation Foreclosure Residential mortgage loans collateralized by real estate that are in the process of foreclosure as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 totaled $1.1 million and $917 thousand, respectively. Mortgage Banking The Company had identified and designated loans with an unpaid principal balance of $7.9 million and $24.0 million as residential loans held for sale at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The interest rate exposure on loans held for sale are mitigated through forward delivery commitments with certain approved secondary market investors. Forward delivery commitments were $14.6 million, and $50.6 million, respectively. Refer to Note 8 for further discussion of the Company's forward delivery commitments. For the periods ended June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company sold $56.1 million and $70.4 million, respectively, of residential mortgage loans on the secondary market, which resulted in a net gain on sale of loans (net of costs, including direct and indirect origination costs) of $2.9 million and $2.2 million, respectively. The Company sells residential loans on the secondary market with the Company primarily retaining the servicing of these loans. Servicing sold loans helps to maintain customer relationships and the Company earns fees over the servicing period. Loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The risks inherent in servicing assets relate primarily to level of prepayments that result from shifts in interest rates. The Company obtains third party valuations of its servicing assets portfolio quarterly, which assumptions are reflected in Fair Value disclosures. |
