FAIR VALUE | NOTE 4 – FAIR VALUE ASC 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements. Fair Value Hierarchy ASC 820-10 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. In accordance with ASC 820-10, these inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below: ☐ Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities ☐ Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in active markets for similar securities) ☐ Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) In determining the appropriate levels, the Company performs a detailed analysis of the assets and liabilities that are subject to ASC 820-10. The Company’s bond holdings in the investment securities portfolio are the only asset or liability subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis. Two assets are valued under Level 1 inputs at June 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014. The Company has assets measured by fair value measurements on a non-recurring basis during 2015. At June 30, 2015, these assets include The changes in the assets subject to fair value measurements are summarized below by Level: (Dollars in Thousands) Fair Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Value December 31, 2014 Recurring: Investment securities available for sale (AFS) $ 790 $ 86,815 $ 388 $ 87,993 Non-recurring: Maryland Financial Bank stock - - 30 30 Impaired loans - - 5,176 5,176 OREO - 45 - 45 790 86,860 5,594 93,244 Activity: Investment securities AFS Purchases of investment securities - 41,910 - 41,910 Sales, calls and maturities of investment securities - (21,382 ) - (21,382 ) Amortization/accretion of premium/discount - (290 ) - (290 ) Increase (decrease) in market value 25 (685 ) (62 ) (722 ) Transfer to Level 2 (573 ) 797 (224 ) - Loans New impaired loans - - 2,400 2,400 Payments and other loan reductions - - (105 ) (105 ) Change in total provision - - (596 ) (596 ) OREO Sales of OREO - - - - Loss on disposal of OREO - - - - Write-down of OREO - - - - June 30, 2015 Recurring: Investment securities AFS 242 107,165 102 107,509 Non-recurring: Maryland Financial Bank stock - - 30 30 Impaired loans - - 6,875 6,875 OREO - 45 - 45 $ 242 $ 107,210 $ 7,007 $ 114,459 The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are summarized below. The fair values of a significant portion of these financial instruments are estimates derived using present value techniques and may not be indicative of the net realizable or liquidation values. Also, the calculation of estimated fair values is based on market conditions at a specific point in time and may not reflect current or future fair values.

The discounts used are estimated using comparable market rates for similar types of instruments adjusted to be commensurate with the credit risk, overhead costs and optionality of such instruments. The fair value of cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, investments in restricted stocks and accrued interest receivable are equal to the carrying amounts. The fair values of investment securities are determined using market quotations. The fair value of loans receivable is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis. The fair value of non-interest bearing deposits, interest-bearing checking, savings, and money market deposit accounts, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and accrued interest payable are equal to the carrying amounts. The fair value of fixed-maturity time deposits is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis. The gross unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at June 30, 2015 are as follows: Securities available for sale: Less than 12 months 12 months or more Total (Dollars in Thousands) Fair Unrealized Fair Unrealized Fair Unrealized Obligations of U.S. Govt Agencies $ - $ - $ - $ - $ - $ - State and Municipal 21,321 645 808 18 22,129 663 Corporate Trust Preferred - - 102 87 102 87 Mortgage Backed 36,464 320 19,183 551 55,647 871 $ 57,785 $ 965 $ 20,093 $ 656 $ 77,878 $ 1,621 At June 30, 2015, the company owned one pooled trust preferred security issued by Regional Diversified Funding, Senior Notes with a Moody’s rating of Ca. The market for this security (two different portions) at June 30, 2015 was not active and markets for similar securities were also not active. As a result, the Company had cash flow testing performed as of June 30, 2015 by an unrelated third party specialist in order to measure the possible extent of other-than-temporary-impairment (“OTTI”). This testing assumed future defaults on the currently performing financial institutions of 150 basis points applied annually with a 0% recovery on both current and future defaulting financial institutions. No write-down was taken in the first six months of 2015. Declines in the fair value of held to maturity and available for sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary-impairment losses, management considers, among other things, (i) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (ii) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (iii) the intent and ability of the Company to retain it’s investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. As of June 30, 2015, management had the ability and intent to hold the securities classified as available for sale for a period of time sufficient for a recovery of cost. On June 30, 2015, the Bank held 29 A rollforward of the cumulative other-than-temporary credit losses recognized in earnings for all debt securities for which a portion of an other-than-temporary loss is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss is as follows: At At (Dollars in Thousands) Estimated credit losses, beginning of year $ 3,262 $ 3,262 Credit losses - no previous OTTI recognized - - Credit losses - previous OTTI recognized - - Estimated credit losses, end of period $ 3,262 $ 3,262 |
