LOANS | NOTE 10 – LOANS The Company uses four different categories to classify loans in its portfolio based on the underlying collateral securing each loan. The loans grouped together in each category have been determined to share similar risk characteristics with respect to credit quality. Those four categories are commercial, financial and agriculture, commercial real estate, consumer real estate, installment and other; Commercial, financial and agriculture – Commercial, financial and agriculture loans include loans to business entities issued for commercial, industrial, or other business purposes. This type of commercial loan shares a similar risk characteristic in that unlike commercial real estate loans, repayment is largely dependent on cash flow generated from the operation of the business. Commercial real estate – Commercial real estate loans are grouped as such because repayment is mainly dependent upon either the sale of the real estate, operation of the business occupying the real estate, or refinance of the debt obligation. This includes both owner-occupied and non-owner occupied CRE secured loans, because they share similar risk characteristics related to these variables. Consumer real estate – Consumer real estate loans consist primarily of loans secured by 1-4 family residential properties and/or residential lots. This includes loans for the purpose of constructing improvements on the residential property, as well as home equity lines of credit. Installment and other – Installment and other loans are all loans issued to individuals that are not for any purpose related to operation of a business, and not secured by real estate. Repayment on these loans is mostly dependent on personal income, which may be impacted by general economic conditions. Generally, the Company will place a delinquent loan in nonaccrual status when the loan becomes 90 days or more past due. At the time a loan is placed in nonaccrual status, all interest which has been accrued on the loan but remains unpaid is reversed and deducted from earnings as a reduction of reported interest income. No additional interest is accrued on the loan balance until the collection of both principal and interest becomes reasonably certain. The following tables summarize by class our loans classified as past due in excess of 30 days or more in addition to those loans classified as nonaccrual including PCI loans.

These loans were recorded at estimated fair value at the acquisition date with no carryover of the related allowance for loan losses. The acquired loans were segregated as of the acquisition date between those considered to be performing (acquired non-impaired loans) and those with evidence of credit deterioration (purchased credit impaired loans). Acquired loans are considered to be impaired if it is probable, based on current available information, that the Company will be unable to collect all cash flows as expected. If expected cash flows cannot reasonably be estimated as to what will be collected, there will not be any interest income recognized on these loans. The following presents information regarding the contractually required payments receivable, cash flows expected to be collected and the estimated fair value of PCI loans acquired in the acquisitions from 2019 .

The outstanding balance of these loans is the undiscounted sum of all amounts, including amounts deemed principal, interest, fees, penalties, and other under the loans, owed at the reporting date, whether or not currently due and whether or not any such amounts have been charged off. Changes in the carrying amount and accretable yield for purchased credit impaired loans were as follows at March 31, 2020 and 2019 ($ in thousands): March 31, 2020 March 31, 2019 Accretable Accretable Yield Yield Balance at beginning of period $ 3,417 $ 3,835 Additions, including transfers from non-accretable 337 427 Accretion (148) (275) Balance at end of period $ 3,606 $ 3,987 The following tables provide detail of impaired loans broken out according to class as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

The gross interest income that would have been recorded in the period that ended if the nonaccrual loans had been current in accordance with their original terms and had been outstanding throughout the period or since origination, if held for part of the three months ended March 31, 2020, was $377 thousand. The Company had no loan commitments to borrowers in nonaccrual status at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Troubled Debt Restructuring If the Company grants a concession to a borrower in financial difficulty, the loan is classified as a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”). The following table presents loans by class modified as troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 ($ in thousands, except for number of loans).

The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings, which are consistent with the definitions used in supervisory guidance: Pass : Loan classified as pass are deemed to possess average to superior credit quality, requiring no more than normal attention. Special Mention : Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management's close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the Company’s credit position at some future date. Substandard : Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful : Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and based on the most recent analysis performed, the risk category of loans by class of loans (excluding mortgage loans held for sale) was as follows: March 31, 2020 Commercial, Commercial Consumer Financial and Real Real Consumer ($ in thousands) Agriculture Estate Estate Installment Total Pass $ 330,739 $ 1,646,868 $ 496,926 $ 36,033 $ 2,510,566 Special Mention 3,351 11,399 1,001 19 15,770 Substandard 10,499 53,517 13,052 379 77,447 Doubtful 13 75 - - 88 Subtotal $ 344,602 $ 1,711,859 $ 510,979 $ 36,431 $ 2,603,871 Less: Unearned Discount — 1,583 — — 1,583 Loans, net of unearned discount $ 344,602 $ 1,710,276 $ 510,979 $ 36,431 $ 2,602,288 December 31, 2019 Commercial, Commercial Consumer Financial and Real Real Consumer ($ in thousands) Agriculture Estate Estate Installment Total Pass $ 327,205 $ 1,645,496 $ 499,426 $ 41,008 $ 2,513,135 Special Mention 3,493 8,876 1,194 21 13,584 Substandard 10,972 50,554 13,244 397 75,167 Doubtful 16 77 - - 93 Subtotal $ 341,686 $ 1,705,003 $ 513,864 $ 41,426 $ 2,601,979 Less: Unearned Discount — 1,621 — — 1,621 Loans, net of unearned discount $ 341,686 $ 1,703,382 $ 513,864 $ 41,426 $ 2,600,358 Allowance for Loan Losses The following table presents the activity in the allowance for loan losses by portfolio segment for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and 2019: Three months ended March 31, 2020 Commercial, Commercial Consumer Installment Financial and Real Real and ($ in thousands) Agriculture Estate Estate Other Unallocated Total Allowance for loan losses: Beginning balance $ 3,043 $ 8,836 $ 1,694 $ 296 $ 39 $ 13,908 Provision for loan losses 1,446 4,523 1,106 66 (39) 7,102 Loans charged-off (99) (333) (9) (59) — (500) Recoveries 76 69 49 100 — 294 Total ending allowance balance $ 4,466 $ 13,095 $ 2,840 $ 403 $ — $ 20,804 Three months ended March 31, 2019 Commercial, Commercial Consumer Installment Financial and Real Real and ($ in thousands) Agriculture Estate Estate Other Unallocated Total Allowance for loan losses: Beginning balance $ 2,060 $ 6,258 $ 1,743 $ 201 $ (197) $ 10,065 Provision for loan losses (490) 1,003 (1,516) 1,929 197 1,123 Loans charged-off (4) — (42) (29) — (75) Recoveries 13 10 19 80 — 122 Total ending allowance balance $ 1,579 $ 7,271 $ 204 $ 2,181 $ — $ 11,235 The following tables provide the ending balances in the Company’s loans (excluding mortgage loans held for sale) and allowance for loan losses, broken down by portfolio segment as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
