When a loan is impaired, the Company measures impairment based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, except that as a practical expedient, the Company measures impairment based on a loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

This concession may be below market rate, longer amortization/term, or a lower payment amount. The present value calculation of the modification did not result in an increase in the allowance for these loans beyond any previously established allocations. There was no troubled debt restructuring that occurred during the six month period ended June 30, 2019. Also, there were no commitments to lend additional funds to troubled debt restructuring borrowers. There were no troubled debt restructurings that subsequently defaulted during the first six months of 2019. There was one residential real estate loan and one consumer loan that were modified and considered troubled debt restructurings during the first quarter of 2018. The loans were modified by reducing the interest rates as well as extending the terms on both loans. The pre-modification pre-modification |
