JXSB Jacksonville Bancorp Inc. (delisted)

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Jacksonville Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Jacksonville Savings Bank (the “Bank”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Financial Resources Group, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

In the opinion of management, the preceding unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition of the Company as of June 30, 2017 and the results of its operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire year, or any other interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2016 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of that date. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Form 10-K filed in March 2017. The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and to prevailing practices within the industry.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The update provides a five-step revenue recognition model for all revenue arising from contracts with customers and affects all entities that enter into contracts to provide goods or services to their customers (unless the contracts are included in the scope of other standards). The guidance requires an entity to recognize the revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. For public entities, the guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, and must be applied either retrospectively or using the modified retrospective approach. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) – Deferral of the Effective Date, which provides a one-year deferral of ASU 2014-09. Management is in the preliminary stage of evaluating the impact of the new guidance, but does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Early adoption would be permitted, but not before the original public entity effective date.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10) - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.  ASU 2016-01 is intended to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information.  ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  The Company is currently reviewing its processes but adoption by the Company is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The ASU requires an organization to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. Organizations will continue to use judgment to determine which loss estimation method is appropriate for their circumstances. Additionally, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. For public companies, this update will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company has been receiving training and gathering historical data in order to determine the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will have on the consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The objective of the simplification initiative is to identify, evaluate, and improve areas of US GAAP for which cost and complexity can be reduced while maintaining or improving the usefulness of the information provided to users of financial statements. The areas for simplification involve several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. Amendments related to the timing of when excess tax benefits are recognized, minimum statutory withholding requirements, forfeitures, and intrinsic value should be applied using a modified retrospective transition method by means of a cumulative effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the period in which the guidance is adopted. The new guidance was effective for public companies for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company adopted the ASU and there was not a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2017, FASB amended FASB ASC Topic 250, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill. The amendments in the update simplify the measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, under this amendment, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The amendments are effective for public business entities for the first interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company has goodwill from a prior business combination and performs an annual impairment test or more frequently if changes or circumstances occur that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value. The Company’s most recent annual impairment assessment determined that the Company’s goodwill was not impaired. Although the Company cannot anticipate future goodwill impairment assessments, based on the most recent assessment it is unlikely that an impairment amount would need to be calculated and, therefore, does not anticipate a material impact from these amendments to the Company’s financial position and results of operations. The current accounting policies and processes are not anticipated to change, except for the elimination of the Step 2 analysis.

In March 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-08, Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs: Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities (Subtopic 310-20). The ASU amends the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium. The amendments require the premium to be amortized to the earliest call date. The ASU’s amendments are effective for public business entities for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted the ASU early and there was not a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Earnings Per Share - Basic earnings per share is determined by dividing net income for the period by the weighted average number of common shares. Diluted earnings per share considers the potential effects of the exercise of the outstanding stock options under the Company’s stock option plans. Average shares outstanding exclude unallocated employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) shares.

The following reflects earnings per share calculations for basic and diluted methods:

In connection with our 2010 second step conversion and related stock offering, the ESOP purchased an additional 41,614 shares for the exclusive benefit of eligible employees. The ESOP borrowed funds from the Company in an amount sufficient to purchase the 41,614 shares (approximately 4% of the common stock issued in the offering). The loan is secured by the shares purchased and will be repaid by the ESOP with funds from contributions made by the Bank and dividends received by the ESOP, with funds from any contributions on ESOP assets. Contributions will be applied to repay interest on the loan first, and the remainder will be applied to principal. The loan is expected to be repaid over a period of up to 20 years. Shares purchased with the loan proceeds are held in a suspense account for allocation among participants as the loan is repaid. Contributions to the ESOP and shares released from the suspense account are allocated among participants in proportion to their compensation, relative to total compensation of all active participants. Participants will vest on a pro-rata basis and reach 100% vesting in the accrued benefits under the ESOP after six years. Vesting is accelerated upon retirement, death, or disability of the participant or a change in control of the Bank. Forfeitures will be reallocated to remaining plan participants. Benefits may be payable upon retirement, death, disability, separation from service, or termination of the ESOP. Since the Bank’s annual contributions are discretionary, benefits payable under the ESOP cannot be estimated.

The Company is accounting for its ESOP in accordance with ASC Topic 718, “ Employers Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans .” Accordingly, the debt of the ESOP is eliminated in consolidation and the shares pledged as collateral are reported as unearned ESOP shares in the consolidated balance sheet. Contributions to the ESOP shall be sufficient to pay principal and interest currently due under the loan agreement. As shares are committed to be released from the collateral, the Company reports compensation expense equal to the average market price of the shares for the respective period, and the shares become outstanding for earnings per share computations. Dividends, if any, on unallocated shares are recorded as a reduction of debt and accrued interest.

A summary of ESOP shares at June 30, 2017 and 2016 is shown below.

On April 24, 2012, our shareholders approved the 2012 Stock Option Plan. On this same date, the compensation committee of the board of directors approved the awards of 104,035 options to purchase Company common stock. The stock options vest over a five-year period and expire ten years after issuance. Apart from the vesting schedule, there are no performance-based conditions or any other material conditions applicable to the options issued.

The following table summarizes stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Intrinsic value for stock options is defined as the difference between the current market value and the exercise price. The value is based upon a closing price of $31.00 per share on June 30, 2017.

The Company believes that originating or purchasing sound loans are a necessary and desirable means of employing funds available for investment. Recognizing the Company’s obligations to its depositors and to the communities it serves, authorized personnel are expected to seek to develop and make sound, profitable loans that resources permit and that opportunity affords. The Company maintains lending policies and procedures designed to focus lending efforts on the types, locations, and duration of loans most appropriate for the business model and markets. The Company’s principal lending activities include the origination of one-to four-family residential mortgage loans, multi-family loans, commercial real estate loans, agricultural loans, home equity lines of credits, commercial business loans, and consumer loans. The primary lending market includes the Illinois counties of Cass, Morgan, Macoupin, Montgomery, and surrounding counties. Generally, loans are collateralized by assets, primarily real estate, of the borrowers and guaranteed by individuals. The loans are expected to be repaid from cash flows of the borrowers or from proceeds from the sale of selected assets of the borrowers.

Loan originations are derived from a number of sources such as real estate broker referrals, existing customers, builders, attorneys and walk-in customers. Upon receipt of a loan application, a credit report is obtained to verify specific information relating to the applicant’s employment, income, and credit standing. In the case of a real estate loan, an appraisal of the real estate intended to secure the proposed loan is undertaken by an independent appraiser approved by the Company. A loan application file is first reviewed by a loan officer in the loan department who checks applications for accuracy and completeness, and verifies the information provided. The financial resources of the borrower and the borrower’s credit history, as well as the collateral securing the loan, are considered an integral part of each risk evaluation prior to approval. The board of directors has established individual lending authorities for each loan officer by loan type. Loans over an individual officer’s lending limit must be approved by the officers’ loan committee consisting of the chairman of the board, president, chief lending officer and all lending officers, which meets three times a week, and has lending authority up to $750,000 depending on the type of loan. Loans to borrowers with an aggregate principal balance over this limit, up to $1.0 million, must be approved by the directors’ loan committee, which meets weekly and consists of the chairman of the board, president, senior vice president, chief lending officer and at least two outside directors, plus all lending officers as non-voting members. The board of directors approves all loans to borrowers with an aggregate principal balance over $1.0 million. The board of directors ratifies all loans that are originated. Once the loan is approved, the applicant is informed and a closing date is scheduled. Loan commitments are typically funded within 30 days.

If the loan is approved, the borrower must provide proof of fire and casualty insurance on the property serving as collateral which insurance must be maintained during the full term of the loan; flood insurance is required in certain instances. Title insurance or an attorney’s opinion based on a title search of the property is generally required on loans secured by real property.

One-to-Four Family Mortgage Loans - Historically, the Bank’s primary lending origination activity has been one-to-four family, owner-occupied, residential mortgage loans secured by property located in the Company’s market area. The Company generates loans through marketing efforts, existing customers and referrals, real estate brokers, builders and local businesses. Generally, one-to-four family loan originations are limited to the financing of loans secured by properties located within the Company’s market area.

Fixed rate one-to-four family residential mortgage loans are generally conforming loans, underwritten according to secondary market guidelines. The Company generally originates both fixed and adjustable rate mortgage loans in amounts up to the maximum conforming loan limits established by the Federal Housing Finance Agency.

The Company originates for resale to Freddie Mac and the Federal Home Loan Bank fixed-rate one-to-four family residential mortgage loans with terms of 15 years or more. The fixed-rate mortgage loans amortize monthly with principal and interest due each month. Residential real estate loans often remain outstanding for significantly shorter periods than their contractual terms because borrowers may refinance or prepay loans at their option. The Company offers fixed-rate one-to-four family residential mortgage loans with terms of up to 30 years without prepayment penalty.

The Company currently offers adjustable-rate mortgage loans for terms ranging up to 30 years. They generally offer adjustable-rate mortgage loans that adjust between one and five years on the anniversary date of origination. Interest rate adjustments are up to two hundred basis points per year, with a cap of up to six hundred basis points on interest rate increases over the life of the loan. In a rising interest rate environment, such rate limitations may prevent adjustable-rate mortgage loans from repricing to market interest rates, which would have an adverse effect on net interest income. In the low interest rate environment that has existed over the past five years, the adjustable-rate portfolio has repriced downward resulting in lower interest income from this portion of the loan portfolio. In addition, during this period borrowers have shown a preference for fixed-rate loans. The Company has used different interest indices for adjustable-rate mortgage loans in the past such as the average yield on U.S. Treasury securities, adjusted to a constant maturity of one year, three years or five years. The origination of fixed-rate mortgage loans versus adjustable-rate mortgage loans is monitored on an ongoing basis and is affected significantly by the level of market interest rates, customer preference, interest rate risk position and competitors’ loan products.

Adjustable-rate mortgage loans make the loan portfolio more interest rate sensitive and provide an alternative for those borrowers who meet the underwriting criteria, but are unable to qualify for a fixed-rate mortgage. However, as the interest income earned on adjustable-rate mortgage loans varies with prevailing interest rates, such loans do not offer predictable cash flows in the same manner as long-term, fixed-rate loans. Adjustable-rate mortgage loans carry increased credit risk associated with potentially higher monthly payments by borrowers as general market interest rates increase. During periods of rising interest rates the risk of delinquencies and defaults on adjustable-rate mortgage loans increases due to the upward adjustment of interest costs to the borrower, which may result in increased loan losses.

Residential first mortgage loans customarily include due-on-sale clauses, which gives the Company the right to declare a loan immediately due and payable in the event that, among other things, the borrower sells or otherwise disposes of the underlying real property serving as collateral for the loan. Due-on-sale clauses are a means of imposing assumption fees and increasing the interest rate on the mortgage portfolio during periods of rising interest rates.

When underwriting residential real estate loans, the Company reviews and verifies each loan applicant’s income and credit history. Management believes that stability of income and past credit history are integral parts in the underwriting process. Generally, the applicant’s total monthly mortgage payment, including all escrow amounts, is limited to 28% of the applicant’s total monthly income. In addition, total monthly obligations of the applicant, including mortgage payments, generally should not exceed 38% of total monthly income. Written appraisals are generally required on real estate property offered to secure an applicant’s loan. For one-to-four family real estate loans with loan to value ratios of over 80%, private mortgage insurance is generally required. Fire and casualty insurance is also required on all properties securing real estate loans. Title insurance, or an attorney’s title opinion, may be required, as circumstances warrant.

The Company does not offer an “interest only” mortgage loan product on one-to-four family residential properties (where the borrower pays interest for an initial period, after which the loan converts to a fully amortizing loan). They also do not offer loans that provide for negative amortization of principal, such as “Option ARM” loans, where the borrower can pay less than the interest owed on the loan, resulting in an increased principal balance during the life of the loan. The Company does not offer a “subprime loan” program (loans that generally target borrowers with weakened credit histories typically characterized by payment delinquencies, previous charge-offs, judgments, bankruptcies, or borrowers with questionable repayment capacity as evidenced by low credit scores or high debt-burden ratios) or Alt-A loans (traditionally defined as loans having less than full documentation).

Commercial Real Estate Loans - The Company originates and purchases commercial real estate loans. Commercial real estate loans are secured primarily by improved properties such as multi-family residential, retail facilities and office buildings, restaurants and other non-residential buildings. The maximum loan-to-value ratio for commercial real estate loans originated is generally 80%. Commercial real estate loans are generally written up to terms of five years with adjustable interest rates. The rates are generally tied to the prime rate and generally have a specified floor. Many of the fixed-rate commercial real estate loans are not fully amortizing and therefore require a “balloon” payment at maturity. The Company purchases from time to time commercial real estate loan participations primarily from outside the Company’s market area. All participation loans are approved following a review to ensure that the loan satisfies the underwriting standards.

Underwriting standards for commercial real estate loans include a determination of the applicant’s credit history and an assessment of the applicant’s ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. The income approach is primarily utilized to determine whether income generated from the applicant’s business or real estate offered as collateral is adequate to repay the loan. There is an emphasis on the ratio of the property’s projected net cash flow to the loan’s debt service requirement (generally requiring a minimum ratio of 120%). In underwriting a loan, the value of the real estate offered as collateral in relation to the proposed loan amount is considered. Generally, the loan amount cannot be greater than 80% of the value of the real estate. Written appraisals are usually obtained from either licensed or certified appraisers on all commercial real estate loans in excess of $250,000. Creditworthiness of the applicant is assessed by reviewing a credit report, financial statements and tax returns of the applicant, as well as obtaining other public records regarding the applicant.

Loans secured by commercial real estate generally involve a greater degree of credit risk than one-to-four family residential mortgage loans and carry larger loan balances. This increased credit risk is a result of several factors, including the effects of general economic conditions on income producing properties and the successful operation or management of the properties securing the loans. Furthermore, the repayment of loans secured by commercial real estate is typically dependent upon the successful operation of the related business and real estate property. If the cash flows from the project are reduced, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan may be impaired.

Agricultural Real Estate Loans - The Company originates and purchases agricultural real estate loans. The maximum loan-to-value ratio for agricultural real estate loans we originate is generally 80%. Our agricultural real estate loans are generally written up to terms of five years with adjustable interest rates.  The rates are generally tied to the average yield on U.S. Treasury securities, adjusted to a constant maturity of one year, three years, or five years and generally have a specified floor. Many of our fixed-rate agricultural real estate loans are not fully amortizing and therefore require a “balloon” payment at maturity. We purchase from time to time agricultural real estate loan participations primarily from other local institutions within our market area. All participation loans are approved following a review to ensure that the loan satisfies our underwriting standards.

Underwriting standards for agricultural real estate include a determination of the applicant’s credit history and an assessment of the applicant’s ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. The income approach is primarily utilized to determine whether income generated from the applicant’s farm operation or real estate offered as collateral is adequate to repay the loan. We emphasize the ratio of the property’s projected cash flow to the loan’s debt service requirement (generally requiring a minimum ratio of 120%). In underwriting a loan, we consider the value of the real estate offered as collateral in relation to the proposed loan amount. Generally, the loan amount cannot be greater than 80% of the value of the real estate. We usually obtain written appraisals from either licensed or certified appraisers on all agricultural real estate loans in excess of $250,000. We assess the creditworthiness of the applicant by reviewing a credit report, financial statements and tax returns of the applicant, as well as obtaining other public records regarding the applicant.

Loans secured by agricultural real estate generally involve a greater degree of credit risk than one-to-four family residential mortgage loans and carry larger loan balances. This increased credit risk is a result of several factors, including the effects of general economic and market conditions on farm operations and the successful operation or management of the properties securing the loans. The repayment of loans secured by agricultural estate is typically dependent upon the successful operation of the farm and real estate property. If the cash flows are reduced, the borrower’s ability to repay the loan may be impaired.

Home Equity Loans – The Company originates home equity loans and lines of credit, which are generally secured by the borrower’s principal residence. The maximum amount of a home equity loan or line of credit is generally 95% of the appraised value of a borrower’s real estate collateral less the amount of any existing mortgages or related liabilities. Home equity loans and lines of credit are approved with both fixed and adjustable interest rates which we determine based upon market conditions. Such loans may be fully amortized over the life of the loan or have a balloon feature. Generally, the maximum term for home equity loans is 10 years.

Underwriting standards for home equity loans include a determination of the applicant’s credit history and an assessment of the applicant’s ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. The stability of the applicant’s monthly income may be determined by verification of gross monthly income from primary employment, and additionally from any verifiable secondary income. We also consider the length of employment with the borrower’s present employer as well as the amount of time the borrower has lived in the local area. Creditworthiness of the applicant is of primary consideration; however, the underwriting process also includes a comparison of the value of the collateral in relation to the proposed loan amount.

Home equity loans entail greater risks than one-to-four family residential mortgage loans, which are secured by first lien mortgages. Collateral repossessed after a default may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance because of damage or depreciation in the value of the property or loss of equity to the first lien position. Further, home equity loan payments are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability, and therefore are more likely to be adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy. Finally, the application of various Federal and state laws, including Federal and state bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can be recovered on such loans in the event of a default.

Commercial Business Loans - The Company originates commercial business loans to borrowers located in the Company’s market area which are secured by collateral other than real estate or which can be unsecured. Commercial business loan participations are also purchased from other lenders, which may be made to borrowers outside the Company’s market area. Commercial business loans are generally secured by equipment and inventory and generally are offered with adjustable rates tied to the prime rate or the average yield on U.S. Treasury securities, adjusted to a constant maturity of either one year, three years or five years and various terms of maturity generally from three years to five years. Unsecured business loans are originated on a limited basis in those instances where the applicant’s financial strength and creditworthiness has been established. Commercial business loans generally bear higher interest rates than residential loans, but they also may involve a higher risk of default since their repayment is generally dependent on the successful operation of the borrower’s business. Personal guarantees are generally obtained from the borrower or a third party as a condition to originating its business loans.

Underwriting standards for commercial and agricultural business loans include a determination of the applicant’s ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan from normal cash flows generated in the applicant’s business. The financial strength of each applicant is assessed through the review of financial statements and tax returns provided by the applicant. The creditworthiness of an applicant is derived from a review of credit reports as well as a search of public records. Business loans are periodically reviewed following origination. Financial statements are requested at least annually and review them for substantial deviations or changes that might affect repayment of the loan. Loan officers also visit the premises of borrowers to observe the business premises, facilities, and personnel and to inspect the pledged collateral. Underwriting standards for business loans are different for each type of loan depending on the financial strength of the applicant and the value of collateral offered as security.

Agricultural Business Loans - The Company originates agricultural business loans to borrowers located in our market area which are secured by collateral other than real estate or which can be unsecured. Agricultural business loans are generally secured by equipment and blanket security agreements on all farm assets. These loans are generally offered with fixed rates with terms up to five years. Agricultural business loans generally bear lower interest rates than residential loans due to competitive market pressures. The repayment of agricultural business loans is generally dependent on the successful operation of the farm operation. Personal guarantees are generally obtained from the borrower as a condition to originating agricultural business loans.

Underwriting standards for agricultural business loans include a determination of the applicant’s ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan from normal cash flows generated in the applicant’s business. The financial strength of each applicant is assessed through the review of financial statements, pro-forma cash flow statements, and tax returns provided by the applicant. The creditworthiness of an applicant is derived from a review of credit reports as well as a search of public records. Financial statements are requested at least annually and reviewed for substantial deviations or changes that might affect repayment of the loan. Loan officers may also visit the premises of borrowers to observe the operation, facilities, equipment, and personnel and to inspect the pledged collateral. Underwriting standards for agricultural business loans are different for each type of loan depending on the financial strength of the applicant and the value of collateral offered as security.

The repayment of agricultural business loans generally is dependent on the successful operation of a farm and can be adversely affected by fluctuations in crop prices, increase in interest rates, and changes in weather conditions. These developments may result in smaller harvests and less income for farmers which may adversely affect such borrower’s ability to repay a loan, and potentially result in an increase in the level of problem loans and loan losses in our agricultural portfolio. While not required, the majority of our agricultural business loans are covered by crop insurance, which provides protection against loss due to lower crop yields as a result of unfavorable weather conditions.

Consumer Loans – The Company originates consumer loans, including automobile loans, loans secured by deposit accounts, unsecured loans and mobile home loans. Consumer loans are generally offered on a fixed-rate basis. Automobile loans are generally offered with maturities of up to 60 months for new automobiles. Loans secured by used automobiles will have maximum terms which vary depending upon the age of the automobile. Automobile loans are generally originated with a loan-to-value ratio below the greater of 80% of the purchase price or 100% of NADA loan value. In the case of a new car loan, the loan-to-value ratio may be greater or less depending on the borrower’s credit history, debt to income ratio, home ownership and other banking relationships with us.

Underwriting standards for consumer loans include a determination of the applicant’s credit history and an assessment of the applicant’s ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. The stability of the applicant’s monthly income may be determined by verification of gross monthly income from primary employment, and additionally from any verifiable secondary income. We also consider the length of employment with the borrower’s present employer as well as the amount of time the borrower has lived in the local area. Creditworthiness of the applicant is of primary consideration; however, the underwriting process also includes a comparison of the value of the collateral in relation to the proposed loan amount.

Consumer loans entail greater risks than one-to-four family residential mortgage loans, particularly consumer loans secured by rapidly depreciating assets such as automobiles or loans that are unsecured. In such cases, collateral repossessed after a default may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance because of damage, loss or depreciation. Further, consumer loan payments are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability, and therefore are more likely to be adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy. Such events would increase our risk of loss on unsecured loans. Finally, the application of various Federal and state laws, including Federal and state bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can be recovered on such loans in the event of a default.

The following tables present the balance in the allowance for loan losses and the recorded investment in loans based on portfolio segment and impairment method as of and for the periods ended June 30, 2017, June 30, 2016, and December 31, 2016.
