CITIZENS HOLDING COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2020
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). However, these interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and reflect all adjustments and reclassifications, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and financial condition as of and for the interim periods presented. All adjustments and reclassifications are of a normal and recurring nature. Results for the period ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year as a whole.
The interim consolidated financial statements of Citizens Holding Company (the “Company”) include the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiary, The Citizens Bank of Philadelphia (the “Bank” and collectively with the Company, the “Corporation”). In addition to full service commercial banking, the Bank offers title insurance services through its subsidiary, Title Services LLC. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
For further information and significant accounting policies of the Corporation, see the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of Citizens Holding Company included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 13, 2020.
Nature of Business
The Bank operates under a state bank charter and provides general banking services. As a state bank, the Bank is subject to regulations of the Mississippi Department of Banking and Consumer Finance and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company is also subject to the regulations of the Federal Reserve. The area served by the Bank is east central and southern counties of Mississippi and the surrounding areas. Services are provided at several branch offices.
Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
5

Estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans. In connection with the determination of the allowance for loan losses and valuation of foreclosed real estate, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties.
While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans and to value foreclosed real estate, future additions to the allowance or adjustments to the valuation may be necessary based on changes in local economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Corporation’s allowance for loan losses and valuations of foreclosed real estate. Such agencies may require the Corporation to recognize additions to the allowance or to make adjustments to the valuation based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination. Due to these factors, it is reasonably possible that the allowance for loan losses and valuation of foreclosed real estate may change materially in the near term.
Risks and Uncertainties
(in thousands, except for number of loans)
The outbreak of
COVID-19
has adversely impacted a broad range of industries in which the Corporation’s customers operate and could impair their ability to fulfill their financial obligations to the Corporation. The World Health Organization has declared
COVID-19
to be a global pandemic indicating that almost all public commerce and related business activities must be, to varying degrees, curtailed with the goal of decreasing the rate of new infections. The spread of the outbreak has caused significant disruptions in the U.S. economy and has disrupted banking and other financial activity in the areas in which the Corporation operates. While there has been no material impact to the Corporation’s employees to date,
COVID-19
could also potentially create widespread business continuity issues for the Corporation.
Congress, the President, and the Federal Reserve have taken several actions designed to cushion the economic fallout. Most notably, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was signed into law at the end of March 2020 as an over $2 trillion legislative package. The goal of the CARES Act is to prevent a severe economic downturn through various measures, including direct financial aid to American families and economic stimulus to significantly impacted industry sectors. The package also includes extensive emergency funding for hospitals and providers. In addition to the general impact of
COVID-19,
certain provisions of the CARES Act as well as other recent legislative and regulatory relief efforts are expected to have a material impact on the Corporation’s operations.
The Corporation’s business is dependent upon the willingness and ability of its employees and customers to conduct banking and other financial transactions. If the global response to contain
COVID-19
escalates further or is unsuccessful, the Corporation could experience a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. While it is not possible to know the full extent that the impact of
COVID-19,
and resulting measures to curtail its spread, will have on the Corporation’s operations, the Corporation is disclosing potentially material items of which it is aware.
 
6

Financial position and results of operations
The Corporation’s fee income has been, and could continue to be, reduced due to
COVID-19. In
keeping with guidance from regulators, the Corporation is actively working with
COVID-19
affected customers to waive fees from a variety of sources, such as, but not limited to, insufficient funds and overdraft fees, ATM fees, account maintenance fees, etc. These reductions in fees are thought, at this time, to be temporary in conjunction with the length of the expected
COVID-19
related economic crisis. At this time, the Corporation is unable to project the materiality of such an impact, but recognizes the breadth of the economic impact is likely to impact its fee income in future periods.
The Corporation’s interest income could be reduced due to
COVID-19. In
keeping with guidance from regulators, the Corporation is actively working with
COVID-19
affected borrowers to defer their payments and fees. While interest and fees will still accrue to income, through normal GAAP accounting, should eventual credit losses on these deferred payments emerge, interest income and fees accrued would need to be reversed. In such a scenario, interest income in future periods could be negatively impacted. At this time, the Corporation is unable to project the materiality of such an impact, but recognizes the breadth of the economic impact may affect its borrowers’ ability to repay in future periods.
Capital and liquidity
While the Corporation believes that it has sufficient capital to withstand an extended economic recession brought about by
COVID-19,
its reported and regulatory capital ratios could be adversely impacted by further credit losses and loss of fee income.
The Corporation maintains access to multiple sources of liquidity. If an extended recession caused large numbers of the Corporation’s deposit customers to withdraw their funds, the Corporation might become more reliant on volatile or more expensive sources of funding. Wholesale funding markets have remained open to us, but rates for short term funding have recently been volatile. If funding costs are elevated for an extended period of time, it could have an adverse effect on the Corporation’s net interest margin.
Asset valuation
Currently, the Corporation does not expect
COVID-19
to affect its ability to account timely for the assets on its consolidated statements of financial condition; however, this could change in future periods. While certain valuation assumptions and judgments will change to account for pandemic-related circumstances such as widening credit spreads, the Corporation does not anticipate significant changes in methodology used to determine the fair value of assets measured in accordance with GAAP.
COVID-19
could cause a decline in the Corporation’s stock price or the occurrence of what management would deem to be a triggering event that could, under certain circumstances, cause us to perform a goodwill impairment test and result in an impairment charge being recorded for that period. In the event that the Corporation concludes that all or a portion of its goodwill is impaired, a
non-cash
charge for the amount of such impairment would be recorded to earnings. Such a charge would have no impact on tangible capital or regulatory capital.
 
7

Processes, controls and business continuity plan
The Corporation has invoked its Board approved Pandemic Preparedness Plan that includes a remote working strategy, among other measures. The Corporation does not anticipate incurring additional material cost related to its continued deployment of the remote working strategy. No material operational or internal control challenges or risks have been identified to date. The Corporation does not anticipate significant challenges to its ability to maintain its systems and controls in light of the measures the Corporation has taken to prevent the spread of
COVID-19. The
Corporation does not currently face any material resource constraint through the implementation of its business continuity plans.
Lending operations and accommodations to borrowers
(dollar amounts in thousands)
In keeping with regulatory guidance to work with borrowers during this unprecedented situation and as outlined in the CARES Act, the Corporation has been executing a payment deferral program for its commercial lending clients that are adversely affected by the pandemic. Depending on the demonstrated need of the client, the Corporation is deferring either the full loan payment or the principal component of the loan payment for 60 or 90 days. As the original deferment period for many borrowers starts to expire, the Corporation is offering an interest-only payment program for up to an additional six months on a
loan-by-loan
basis. As of October 15, 2020, the Corporation had 16 loans in the deferral program with a total balance of $33,601. In accordance with interagency guidance issued in March 2020, these short-term deferrals are not considered troubled debt restructurings.
With the passage of the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), administered by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”), the Corporation is actively participating in assisting its customers with applications for resources through the program. PPP loans have a
two-year
term and earn interest at 1%. The Corporation believes that the majority of these loans will ultimately be forgiven by the SBA in accordance with the terms of the program. The Corporation closed 590 SBA PPP loans representing $48,830 in funding. It is the Corporation’s understanding that loans funded through the PPP program are fully guaranteed by the U.S. government. Should those circumstances change, the Corporation could be required to establish additional allowance for credit loss through additional credit loss expense charged to earnings.
Further, in sensitivity and service to its communities during this unprecedented time, the Corporation is waiving certain late payments and service charges and has temporarily suspended collection efforts on past due loans.
 
8

Credit
The Corporation is working with customers directly affected by
COVID-19. The
Corporation is prepared to offer short-term assistance in accordance with regulator guidelines. As a result of the current economic environment caused by the
COVID-19
virus, the Corporation is engaging in more frequent communication with borrowers to better understand their situation and the challenges faced, allowing it to respond proactively as needs and issues arise. Should economic conditions worsen, the Corporation could experience further increases in its allowance for loan losses and record additional credit loss expense. It is possible that the Corporation’s asset quality measures could worsen at future measurement periods if the effects of
COVID-19
are prolonged.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU
2017-04, “
Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment
” (“ASU
2017-04”). ASU
2017-04
simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairment for all entities by requiring impairment charges to be based on the first step in the previous
two-step
impairment test. Under the new guidance, if a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an entity will record an impairment charge based on that difference. The impairment charge will be limited to the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The standard eliminates the prior requirement to calculate a goodwill impairment charge using Step 2, which requires an entity to calculate any impairment charge by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount. ASU
2017-04
was effective for the Corporation on January 1, 2020 and did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.
ASU
2019-13
Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) – Changes in the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement
” (“ASU
2019-13”)
removes the requirement to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurement methodologies, the policy for timing of transfers between levels and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. It also adds a requirement to disclose changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 measurements. For certain unobservable inputs, entities may disclose other quantitative information in lieu of the weighted average if the other quantitative information would be a more reasonable and rational method to reflect the distribution of unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU
2019-13
is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. ASU
2019-13
was effective for the Corporation on January 1, 2020 and did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.
In March 2020, various regulatory agencies, including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, (“the agencies”) issued an interagency statement on loan modifications and reporting for financial institutions working with customers affected by
COVID-19.
The interagency statement was effective immediately and impacted accounting for loan modifications. Under Accounting Standards Codification
310-40,
Receivables – Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors
,” (“ASC
310-40”),
a restructuring of debt constitutes a troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”) if the creditor, for economic or legal
 
9

reasons related to the debtor’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the debtor that it would not otherwise consider. The agencies confirmed with the staff of the FASB that short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to
COVID-19
to borrowers who were current prior to any relief, are not to be considered TDRs. This includes short-term (e.g., six months) modifications such as payment deferrals, fee waivers, extensions of repayment terms, or other delays in payment that are insignificant. Borrowers considered current are those that are less than 30 days past due on their contractual payments at the time a modification program is implemented. This interagency guidance is expected to have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial statements; however, this impact cannot be quantified at this time.
Newly Issued, But Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU
2016-13,
“Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU
2016-13”).
ASU
2016-13
makes significant changes to the accounting for credit losses on financial instruments and disclosures about them. The new current expected credit loss (CECL) impairment model will require an estimate of expected credit losses, measured over the contractual life of an instrument, which considers reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions in addition to information about past events and current conditions. The standard provides significant flexibility and requires a high degree of judgment with regards to pooling financial assets with similar risk characteristics, determining the contractual terms of said financial assets and adjusting the relevant historical loss information in order to develop an estimate of expected lifetime losses. In addition, ASU
2016-13
amends the accounting for credit losses on debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The amendments in ASU
2016-13
are currently effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2019, and interim periods within those years for public business entities that are SEC filers. However, in October 2019, the FASB approved deferral of the effective date for ASU
2016-13
for certain companies. The new effective date for the Corporation is January 1, 2023. ASU
2016-13
permits the use of estimation techniques that are practical and relevant to the Corporation’s circumstances, as long as they are applied consistently over time and faithfully estimate expected credit losses in accordance with the standard. The ASU lists several common credit loss methods that are acceptable such as a discounted cash flow method, loss-rate method and probability of default/loss given default (PD/LGD) method. Depending on the nature of each identified pool of financial assets with similar risk characteristics, the Corporation currently plans on implementing a PD/LGD method or a loss-rate method to estimate expected credit losses. The Corporation expects ASU
2016-13
to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s accounting policies, internal controls over financial reporting and footnote disclosures. The Corporation has assessed its data and system needs and has begun designing its financial models to estimate expected credit losses in accordance with the standard. Further development, testing and evaluation of said models is required to determine the impact that adoption of this standard will have on the financial condition and results of operations of the Corporation.

Note 2. Mergers and Acquisitions
(in thousands, except share data)
Merger with Charter Bank
Effective October 1, 2019, the Corporation completed its acquisition by merger of Charter Bank (“Charter”), in a transaction valued at approximately $19.7 million. The Corporation issued 666,101 shares of common stock and paid approximately $6.1 million in cash to Charter shareholders, excluding cash paid for fractional shares. At closing, Charter merged with and into the Bank, with the Bank being the surviving corporation in the merger. Operations of Charter are included in the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation for periods subsequent to the acquisition date.
For further information regarding the merger with Charter, see the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of Citizens Holding Company included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 13, 2020.
Note 3. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
(in thousands)
In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation enters into commitments to extend credit to its customers. The unused portion of these commitments is not reflected in the accompanying financial statements. As of September 30, 2020, the Corporation had entered into loan commitments with certain customers with an aggregate unused balance of $123,114 compared to an aggregate unused balance of $94,009 at December 31, 2019. There were $4,565 of letters of credit outstanding at September 30, 2020 and $2,436 at December 31, 2019. The fair value of such commitments is not considered material because letters of credit and loan commitments often are not used in their entirety, if at all, before they expire. The balances of such letters and commitments should not be used to project actual future liquidity requirements. However, the Corporation does incorporate expectations about the utilization under its credit-related commitments into its asset and liability management program.
The Corporation is a party to lawsuits and other claims that arise in the ordinary course of business, all of which are being vigorously contested. In the regular course of business, management evaluates estimated losses or costs related to litigation, and provisions are made for anticipated losses whenever management believes that such losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. At the present time, management believes, based on the advice of legal counsel, that the final resolution of pending legal proceedings will not likely have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

Note 5. Equity Compensation Plans
(in thousands, except per share data)
The Company has adopted the 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2013 Plan”), which the Company intends to use for future equity grants to employees, directors or consultants until the termination or expiration of the 2013 Plan.
Prior to the adoption of the 2013 Plan, the Company issued awards to directors from the 1999 Directors’ Stock Compensation Plan (the “Directors’ Plan”), which has expired.

The intrinsic value of options outstanding under the Directors’ Plan at September 30, 2020, was $58.
No
options were outstanding under the 2013 Plan as of September 30, 2020.
During 2020, the Company’s directors received restricted stock grants totaling 8,250 shares of common stock under the 2013 Plan. These grants vest over a
one-year
period ending April 29, 2021 during which time the recipients have rights to vote the shares and to receive dividends. The grant date fair value of these shares was $169 and will be expensed ratably over the
one-year
vesting period.
During 2015, 7,500 shares of restricted stock were granted to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) that would vest according to a stock performance schedule over the next five years. The stock performance for the Company met the goal for 2016 and the CEO became vested in 20%, or 1,500 shares of the restricted stock at an expense of $32. Again in 2017, the Company met 20% of its goal and the CEO became vested in an additional 1,500 shares of the restricted stock at an expense of $37. The stock performance for the Company did not meet the goal in 2020, 2019 or 2018 and no corresponding expense was recorded. Additionally, the remaining 4,500 shares of restricted stock were forfeited as of June 22, 2020, the expiration of the five-year vesting period.
Note 6. Income Taxes
(in thousands)
For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Corporation recorded a provision for income taxes totaling $560 and $212, respectively. The effective tax rate was 21.2% and 13.7% for the three months ending September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Corporation recorded a provision for income taxes totaling $1,177 and $727, respectively. The effective tax rate was 20.0% and 15.6% for the nine months ending September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
The provision for income taxes includes both federal and state income taxes and differs from the statutory rate due to favorable permanent differences primarily related to tax free municipal investments.

The Corporation’s unrealized losses on its obligations of United States government agencies, mortgage backed securities and state, county and municipal bonds are the result of an upward trend in interest rates since purchase, mainly in the
mid-term
sector. Additionally, with mortgage rates at historical lows, all of the mortgage backed securities above are prepaying faster than expected at September 30, 2020, therefore causing the book yields to decrease and market yields to lower along with them. None of the unrealized losses disclosed in the previous table are related to credit deterioration. The Corporation does not intend to sell any securities in an unrealized loss position that it holds and it is not more likely than not that the Corporation will be required to sell any such security prior to the recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity. Furthermore, even though a number of these securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for greater than twelve months, the Corporation is collecting principal and interest payments as scheduled. The Corporation has determined that none of the securities in this classification were other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2020 nor at December 31, 2019.

Loans are considered to be past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Loans are placed on
non-accrual
status, when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment obligations as they become due, as well as when required by regulatory provisions. Loans may be placed on
non-accrual
status regardless of whether such loans are considered past due. When interest accruals are discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received in excess of principal due. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Loans are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect all amounts due in accordance with the original contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled principal and interest payments. In determining which loans to evaluate for impairment, management looks at all loans over $100 that are past due loans, bankruptcy filings and any situation that might lend itself to cause a borrower to be unable to repay the loan according to the original agreement terms. If a loan is determined to be impaired and the collateral is deemed to be insufficient to fully repay the loan, a specific reserve will be established. Interest payments on impaired loans are typically applied to principal unless collectability of the principal amount is reasonably assured, in which case interest is recognized on a cash basis. Impaired loans or portions thereof, are
charged-off
when deemed uncollectible.

The Corporation utilizes a risk grading matrix to assign a risk grade to each of its loans when originated and is updated as factors related to the strength of the loan changes. Loans are graded on a scale of 1 to 9. A description of the general characteristics of the 9 risk grades follows.
Grade 1. MINIMAL RISK - These loans are without loss exposure to the Corporation. This classification is reserved for only the best, well secured loans to borrowers with significant capital strength, low leverage, stable earnings and growth and other readily available financing alternatives. This type of loan would also include loans secured by a program of the government.
Grade 2. MODEST RISK - These loans include borrowers with solid credit quality and moderate risk of loss. These loans may be fully secured by certificates of deposit with another reputable financial institution, or secured by readily marketable securities with acceptable margins.
Grade 3. AVERAGE RISK - This is the rating assigned to the majority of the loans held by the Corporation. This includes loans with average loss exposure and average overall quality. These loans should liquidate through possessing adequate collateral and adequate earnings of the borrower. In addition, these loans are properly documented and are in accordance with all aspects of the current loan policy.
Grade 4. ACCEPTABLE RISK - Borrower generates sufficient cash flow to fund debt service but most working asset and capital expansion needs are provided from external sources. Profitability and key balance sheet ratios are usually close to peers but one or more may be higher than peers.
Grade 5. MANAGEMENT ATTENTION - Borrower has significant weaknesses resulting from performance trends or management concerns. The financial condition of the borrower has taken a negative turn and may be temporarily strained. Cash flow is weak but cash reserves remain adequate to meet debt service. Management weakness is evident.
Grade 6. OTHER LOANS ESPECIALLY MENTIONED (“OLEM”) - Loans in this category are fundamentally sound but possess some weaknesses. OLEM loans have potential weaknesses which may, if not checked or corrected, weaken the asset or inadequately protect the bank’s credit position at some future date. These loans have an identifiable weakness in credit, collateral, or repayment ability but there is no expectation of loss.
Grade 7. SUBSTANDARD ASSETS - Assets classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets classified as substandard must have a well-defined weakness based upon objective evidence. Assets classified as substandard are characterized by the distinct possibility that the insured institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. The possibility that liquidation would not be timely requires a substandard classification even if there is little likelihood of total loss. This classification does not mean that the loan will incur a total or partial loss. Substandard loans may or may not be impaired.
 
23

Grade 8. DOUBTFUL - A loan classified as doubtful has all the weaknesses of a substandard classification and the added characteristic that the weakness makes collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable or improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonable specific pending factors which may work to the advantage and strengthening of the asset, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined. A doubtful classification could reflect the fact that the primary source of repayment is gone and serious doubt exists as to the quality of a secondary source of repayment.
Grade 9. LOSS - Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset even though partial recovery may occur in the future. Also included in this classification is the defined loss portion of loans rated substandard assets and doubtful assets.
These internally assigned grades are updated on a continual basis throughout the course of the year and represent management’s most updated judgment regarding grades at September 30, 2020.

Note 10. Allowance for Loan Losses
(in thousands)
The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense, which represents management’s best estimate of probable losses within the existing portfolio of loans. The allowance, in the judgment of management, is necessary to reserve for estimated loan losses and risks inherent in the loan portfolio.
The allowance on the majority of the loan portfolio is calculated using a historical chargeoff percentage applied to the current loan balances by loan segment. This historical period is the average of the previous twenty quarters with the most current quarters weighted more heavily to show the effect of the most recent chargeoff activity. This percentage is also adjusted for economic factors such as local unemployment and general business conditions, both local and nationwide.
The group of loans that are considered to be impaired are individually evaluated for possible loss and a specific reserve is established to cover any loss contingency. Loans that are determined to be a loss with no benefit of remaining in the portfolio are charged off to the allowance. These specific reserves are reviewed periodically for continued impairment and adequacy of the specific reserve and are adjusted when necessary.

Note 14. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value topic of the ASC establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires enhanced disclosures about fair value measurements. This topic clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. This topic also requires disclosure about how fair value was determined for assets and liabilities and establishes a hierarchy for which these assets and liabilities must be grouped, based on significant levels of inputs as follows:
 
Level 1    Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2    Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or
Level 3    Unobservable inputs for an asset or liability, such as discounted cash flow models or valuations.
 
38

The determination of where assets and liabilities fall within this hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following table presents assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2020:

Impaired Loans
Loans considered impaired are reserved for at the time the loan is identified as impaired taking into account the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets including but not limited to, equipment, inventory and accounts receivable. The fair value of real estate is determined based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers. The fair value of the business assets is generally based on amounts reported on the business’s financial statements. Appraised and reported values may be adjusted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation and management knowledge of the client and the client’s business. Since not all valuation inputs are observable, these nonrecurring fair value determinations are classified Level 3. The unobservable inputs may vary depending on the individual assets with the fair value of real estate based on appraised value being the predominant approach. The Corporation reviews the certified appraisals for appropriateness and adjusts the value downward to consider selling, closing and liquidation costs, which typically approximates 25% of the appraised value. Impaired loans are reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly, based on the same factors previously identified.
Other real estate owned
OREO is primarily comprised of real estate acquired in partial or full satisfaction of loans. OREO is recorded at its estimated fair value less estimated selling and closing costs at the date of transfer, with any excess of the related loan balance over the fair value less expected selling costs charged to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequent changes in fair value are reported as adjustments to the carrying amount and are recorded against earnings. The Corporation outsources the valuation of OREO with material balances to third party appraisers. The Corporation reviews the third-party appraisal for appropriateness and adjusts the value downward to consider selling and closing costs, which typically approximate 25% of the appraised value.
For assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during 2020 that were still held on the Corporation’s balance sheet at September 30, 2020, the following table provides the hierarchy level and the fair value of the related assets:

Impaired loans, whose fair value was remeasured during the period, with a carrying value of $4,137 and $5,003 had an allocated allowance for loan losses of $594 and $427 at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The allocated allowance is based on the carrying value of the impaired loan and the fair value of the underlying collateral less estimated costs to sell.
After monitoring the carrying amounts for subsequent declines or impairments after foreclosure, management determined that a fair value adjustment to OREO in the amount of $
230
and
$-0-
was necessary and recorded during the three and nine-month period ended September 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019, respectively.
The financial instruments topic of the ASC requires disclosure of financial instruments’ fair values, as well as the methodology and significant assumptions used in estimating fair values. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument. The financial instruments topic of the ASC excludes certain financial instruments from its disclosure requirements.

in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Except as required by law, the Company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements subsequent to the date of this Quarterly Report, or if earlier, the date on which such statements were made.
Management’s discussion and analysis is intended to provide greater insight into the results of operations and the financial condition of the Corporation. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
OVERVIEW
The Company is a
one-bank
holding company incorporated under the laws of the State of Mississippi on February 16, 1982. The Company is the sole shareholder of the Bank. The Company does not have any direct subsidiaries other than the Bank.
The Bank was opened on February 8, 1908 as The First National Bank of Philadelphia. In 1917, the Bank surrendered its national charter and obtained a state charter, at which time the name of the Bank was changed to The Citizens Bank of Philadelphia, Mississippi. At September 30, 2020, the Bank was the largest bank headquartered in Neshoba County, Mississippi, with total assets of $1,373,958 and total deposits of $1,051,267. In addition to full service commercial banking, the Bank offers title insurance services through its subsidiary, Title Services LLC. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The principal executive offices of both the Company and the Bank are located at 521 Main Street, Philadelphia, Mississippi 39350, and the main telephone number is (601)
656-4692.
All references hereinafter to the activities or operations of the Company reflect the Company’s activities or operations through the Bank.
LIQUIDITY
The Corporation has an asset and liability management program that assists management in maintaining net interest margins during times of both rising and falling interest rates and in maintaining sufficient liquidity. A measurement of liquidity is the ratio of net deposits and short-term liabilities divided by the sum of net cash, short-term investments and marketable assets. This measurement for liquidity of the Corporation at September 30, 2020, was 13.8% and at December 31, 2019, was 24.87%. The decrease was due to an increase in deposits at September 30, 2020. Management believes it maintains adequate liquidity for the Corporation’s current needs.
 
46

The Corporation’s primary source of liquidity is customer deposits, which were $1,049,157 at September 30, 2020, and $898,996 at December 31, 2019. Other sources of liquidity include investment securities, the Corporation’s line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and federal funds lines with correspondent banks. The Corporation had $582,698 invested in
available-for-sale
investment securities at September 30, 2020, and $464,383 at December 31, 2019. The Corporation’s deposit growth during the
COVID-19
pandemic, like most banks in our region, has outpaced loan growth and therefore, the excess funds were invested in securities to help profitability of the Corporation.
The Corporation also had $42,543 in interest bearing deposits at other banks at September 30, 2020 and $58,557 at December 31, 2019. The Corporation had secured and unsecured federal funds lines with correspondent banks in the amount of $45,000 at both September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. In addition, the Corporation has the ability to draw on its line of credit with the FHLB. At September 30, 2020, the Corporation had unused and available $206,299 of its line of credit with the FHLB and at December 31, 2019, the Corporation had unused and available $177,592 of its line of credit with the FHLB. The increase in the amount available under the Corporation’s line of credit with the FHLB from the end of 2019 to September 30, 2020, was the result of an increase in the amount of loans eligible for the collateral pool securing the Corporation’s line of credit with the FHLB. The Corporation had federal funds purchased of
$-0-
as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Corporation may purchase federal funds from correspondent banks on a temporary basis to meet short term funding needs.
When the Corporation has more funds than it needs for its reserve requirements or short-term liquidity needs, the Corporation increases its investment portfolio, increases the balances in interest bearing due from bank accounts or sells federal funds. It is management’s policy to maintain an adequate portion of its portfolio of assets and liabilities on a short-term basis to insure rate flexibility and to meet loan funding and liquidity needs. When deposits decline or do not grow sufficiently to fund loan demand, management will seek funding either through federal funds purchased or advances from the FHLB.
CAPITAL RESOURCES
Total shareholders’ equity was $117,499 at September 30, 2020, as compared to $112,800 at December 31, 2019. The increase in shareholders’ equity per share reflects earnings in excess of dividends coupled with an increase in the fair value of the Corporation’s investment securities caused by a decrease in medium term interest rates.
The Corporation paid aggregate cash dividends in the amount of $4,022, or $0.72 per share, during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020 compared to $3,535, or $0.72 per share, for the same period in 2019.
Quantitative measures established by federal regulations to ensure capital adequacy require the Corporation to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier 1 capital (primarily common stock and retained earnings, less goodwill) to risk weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital
 
47

to average assets. Management believes that as of September 30, 2020, the Corporation meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject and according to these requirements the Corporation is considered to be well capitalized.

The Dodd-Frank Act requires the Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) to adopt regulations imposing a continuing “floor” on the risk based capital requirements. In December 2010, the Basel Committee released a final framework for a strengthened set of capital requirements, known as “Basel III”. In early July 2013, each of the U.S. federal banking agencies adopted final rules relevant to us: (1) the Basel III regulatory capital reforms; and (2) the “standardized approach of Basel II for
non-core
banks and bank holding companies”, such as the Bank and the Company. The capital framework under Basel III replaced the existing regulatory capital rules for all banks, savings associations and U.S. bank holding companies with greater than $500 million in total assets, and all savings and loan holding companies.
Beginning January 1, 2015, the Company and the Bank began to comply with the final Basel III rules, which became effective on January 1, 2019. Among other things, the final Basel III rules impact regulatory capital ratios of banking organizations in the following manner:
 
   
Create a requirement to maintain a ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital to total risk-weighted assets of not less than 4.5%;
 
   
Increase the minimum leverage capital ratio to 4% for all banking organizations (currently 3% for certain banking organizations);
 
   
Increase the minimum Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio from 4% to 6%; and
 
   
Maintain the minimum total risk-based capital ratio at 8%.
In addition, the final Basel III rules subject banking organizations to certain limitations on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers if the organization does not maintain a capital conservation buffer of common equity Tier 1 capital in an amount greater than 2.5% of its total risk-weighted assets. The effect of the capital conservation buffer increases the
 
48

minimum common equity Tier 1 capital ratio to 7%, the minimum Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio to 8.5% and the minimum total risk-based capital ratio to 10.5% for banking organizations seeking to avoid the limitations on capital distributions and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers.
The final Basel III rules also changed the capital categories for insured depository institutions for purposes of prompt corrective action. Under the final rules, to be well capitalized, an insured depository institution must maintain a minimum common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 6.5%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 8%, a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10.0%, and a leverage capital ratio of at least 5%. In addition, the final Basel III rules established more conservative standards for including an instrument in regulatory capital and imposed certain deductions from and adjustments to the measure of common equity Tier 1 capital.
Management believes that, as of September 30, 2020, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements under Basel III. The changes to the calculation of risk-weighted assets required by Basel III did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s capital ratios as presented.

See Note 4 to the Corporation’s Consolidated Financial Statements for an explanation regarding the Corporation’s calculation of Net Income Per Share - basic and - diluted.
Annualized return on average equity (“ROE”) was 7.18% for the three months ended September 30, 2020, and 5.52% for the corresponding period in 2019. Annualized return on average equity (“ROE”) was 5.40% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and 5.77% for the corresponding period in 2019. The increase in ROE for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 was caused by the increase in earnings compared to the same period in 2019.
Book value per share increased to $21.03 at September 30, 2020, compared to $20.22 at December 31, 2019. The increase in book value per share is directly attributable to the increase in shareholders’ equity discussed above. Average assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were $1,308,298 compared to $1,164,570 for the year ended December 31, 2019. This increase was due mainly to an increase in loans and investment securities partially offset by a decrease in interest bearing deposits with other banks.

NET INTEREST INCOME / NET INTEREST MARGIN
The main component of the Corporation’s earnings is net interest income, which is the difference between the interest and fees earned on loans and investments and the interest paid for deposits and borrowed funds. The net interest margin is net interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets. The primary concerns in managing net interest income are the volume, mix and repricing of assets and liabilities.
Net interest income was $8,906 and $24,641 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, as compared to $5,918 and $18,335 for the same respective time periods in 2019.
The following tables set forth average balance sheet data, including all major categories of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, together with the interest earned or interest paid and the average yield or average rate paid on each such category for the periods presented:

(1)
Overdrafts, while not considered an earning asset, are included in Loans, net of unearned in the average volume calculation due to the immaterial impact on the yield.
(2)
Earnings Assets in the table above does include the dividend paying stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank.
(3)
Demand deposits are not included in the average volume calculation as they are not interest bearing liabilities. They are included within the
non-interest
bearing liabilities section above.
The average balances of nonaccruing assets are included in the tables above. Interest income and weighted average yields on
tax-exempt
loans and securities have been computed on a fully tax equivalent basis assuming a federal tax rate of 21% and a state tax rate of 3.95%, which is net of federal tax benefit.
Net interest margin and net interest income are influenced by internal and external factors. Internal factors include balance sheet changes in volume, mix and pricing decisions. External factors include changes in market interest rates, competition and the shape of the interest rate yield curve. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the respective corresponding periods in 2019, growth in the Company’s loan portfolio was the largest contributing factor to the increase in net interest income over these periods. Also, the Company’s continued efforts to replace maturing loans with new or renewed loans at similar or higher rates, hampered by the flat interest rate environment resulting from the Federal Reserve Board’s decreases to the target federal funds rate during the
COVID-19
pandemic, and coupled with our efforts to limit the growth in deposits and borrowing costs (while remaining competitive), drove further interest income and interest margin expansion.

CREDIT LOSS EXPERIENCE
As a natural corollary to the Corporation’s lending activities, some loan losses are to be expected. The risk of loss varies with the type of loan being made and the overall creditworthiness of the borrower over the term of the loan. The degree of perceived risk is taken into account in establishing the structure of, and interest rates and security for, specific loans and for various types of loans. The Corporation attempts to minimize its credit risk exposure by use of thorough loan application and approval procedures.
The Corporation maintains a program of systematic review of its existing loans. Loans are graded for their overall quality. Those loans, which management determines require further monitoring and supervision, are segregated and reviewed on a regular basis. Significant problem loans are reviewed monthly by the Corporation’s management and Board of Directors.
The Corporation charges off that portion of any loan that the Corporation’s management and Board of Directors has determined to be a loss. A loan is generally considered by management to represent a loss, in whole or in part, when exposure beyond the collateral value is apparent, servicing of the unsecured portion has been discontinued or collection is not anticipated based on the borrower’s financial condition. The general economic conditions in the borrower’s industry influence this determination. The principal amount of any loan that is declared a loss is charged against the Corporation’s allowance for loan losses.
 
56

The Corporation’s allowance for loan losses is designed to provide for loan losses that can be reasonably anticipated. The allowance for loan losses is established through charges to operating expenses in the form of provisions for loan losses. Actual loan losses or recoveries are charged or credited to the allowance for loan losses. The Board of Directors determines the amount of the allowance. Among the factors considered in determining the allowance for loan losses are the current financial condition of the Corporation’s borrowers and the value of security, if any, for their loans. Estimates of future economic conditions and their impact on various industries and individual borrowers are also taken into consideration, as are the Corporation’s historical loan loss experience and reports of banking regulatory authorities. As these estimates, factors and evaluations are primarily judgmental, no assurance can be given as to whether the Corporation will sustain loan losses in excess or below its allowance or that subsequent evaluation of the loan portfolio may not require material increases or decreases in such allowance.
The following table summarizes the Corporation’s allowance for loan losses for the dates indicated:

     0.69     0.65     
Net loans charged off (recovered) to allowance for loan losses
     9.90     5.06     
The provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $247, an increase of $235 from the provision for loan losses of $12 for the same period in 2019. The provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $1,183, an increase of $711 from the provision for loan losses of $472 for the same period in 2019. The change in the Corporation’s loan loss provisions for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 is a result of management’s assessment of inherent loss in the loan portfolio, including the impact caused by current local, national and international economic conditions coupled with an increase in loan demand. As a result of the
COVID-19
virus, the Corporation increased the allowance for loan losses qualitatively, specifically related to exposures that we felt were more
“at-risk”
than others, including hotels, restaurants and retail real estate. The Corporation’s model used to calculate the provision is based on the percentage of historical charge-offs, increased for certain qualitative factors within the regulatory framework, applied to the current loan balances by loan segment and specific reserves applied to certain impaired loans. Nonaccrual loans decreased during this period due to payments received and loans charged off in excess of new loans being added to nonaccrual status.
 
57

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, net loan losses charged to the allowance for loan losses totaled $10, a decrease of $17 from the $27 charged off in the same period in 2019.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, net loan losses charged to the allowance for loan losses totaled $444, an increase of $405 from the $39 charged off in the same period in 2019. The increase was primarily due to two significant charge-offs during the nine month period ended September 30, 2020.
Management reviews quarterly with the Corporation’s Board of Directors the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The loan loss provision is adjusted when specific items reflect a need for such an adjustment. Management believes that there were no material loan losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 that have not been charged off. Management also believes that the Corporation’s allowance will be adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the Corporation’s loan portfolio. However, it remains possible that additional provisions for loan loss may be required. We are working with customers directly affected by
COVID-19.
We have been and continue to be prepared to offer short-term assistance in accordance with regulator guidelines. As a result of the current economic environment caused by the
COVID-19
virus, we are engaging in more frequent communications with borrowers to better understand their situation and challenges faced, allowing us to proactively respond as needs and issues arise.
OTHER INCOME
Other income includes service charges on deposit accounts, wire transfer fees, safe deposit box rentals and other revenue not derived from interest on earning assets. Other income for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $2,637, an increase of $131, or 5.2%, from $2,506 in the same period in 2019. Service charges on deposit accounts were $771 in the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $1,126 for the same period in 2019. In correlation with the national trend of increased savings due to the uncertainty surrounding
COVID-19,
there has been a decrease in overdraft income when compared to the same period in 2019 that is the primary driver behind the reduction in service charges on deposit accounts. Other service charges and fees increased by $168, or 19.5%, to $1,031 in the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $863 for the same period in 2019. Other operating income not derived from service charges or fees increased $318, or 61.5% to $835 in the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $517 for the same period in 2019. This increase was primarily due to two reasons, (1) an increase in gains from security sales due to strategic investment decisions and (2) an increase in mortgage loan origination income due to a decrease in long-term mortgage rates driving increased mortgage volume.
Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $7,488, an increase of $864, or 13.0%, from $6,624 in the same period in 2019. Service charges on deposit accounts were $2,488 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $3,268 for the same period in 2019. The reason for the significant decrease was discussed above. Other service charges and fees increased by $358, or 15.5%, to $2,675 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $2,317 for the same period in 2019. Other operating income not derived from service charges or fees increased $1,286, or 123.8% to $2,325 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $1,039 for the same period in 2019. The reason for the significant increase was discussed above.

OTHER EXPENSES
Other expenses include salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, and other operating expenses. Aggregate
non-interest
expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 were $8,653 and $6,867, respectively, an increase of $1,786 or 26.0%. Salaries and benefits increased to $4,389 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, from $3,509 for the same period in 2019. Occupancy expense increased by $574, or 44.6%, to $1,861 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $1,287 for the same period of 2019. The increases in salaries and benefits and occupancy expense are directly related to the Corporation closing the Charter merger in Q4 of 2019. Other operating expenses increased by $332, or 16.0%, to $2,403 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $2,071 for the same period of 2019. This increase was mainly due to the write down of one OREO property during the third quarter of 2020.
Aggregate
non-interest
expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 were $25,064 and $19,830, respectively, an increase of $5,234 or 26.4%. Salaries and benefits increased to $13,131 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, from $10,525 for the same period in 2019. Occupancy expense increased by $1,436, or 34.9%, to $5,556 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $4,120 for the same period of 2019. Other operating expenses increased by $1,192, or 23.0%, to $6,377 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $5,185 for the same period of 2019. This increase was mainly due to a
one-time
postage refund in 2019, a write down of one OREO property during 2020 and an increase in regulatory assessment due to the increase in the size of the Bank.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and due from banks, which consist of cash, balances at correspondent banks and items in process of collection, balance at September 30, 2020 was $13,710, which was an increase of $2,227 from the balance of $15,937 at December 31, 2019.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The Corporation’s investment securities portfolio primarily consists of United States agency debentures, mortgage-backed securities and obligations of states, counties and municipalities. The Corporation’s investments securities portfolio at September 30, 2020 increased by $118,315, or 25.5%, to $582,698 from $464,383 at December 31, 2019. As previously discussed, this increase was due to a large excess in liquidity as customers continue to save excess funds due to the uncertainty around the
COVID-19
pandemic.
LOANS
The Corporation’s loan balance increased by $77,827, or 13.6%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, to $651,139 from $573,312 at December 31, 2019. This large increase was primarily due to two reasons: (1) Loan demand continues to be strong in our operating regions, especially in land development and construction and commercial real estate categories and (2) the Corporation funded approximately $48,830f in PPP loans during the second quarter of 2020. While loan demand continues to be strong in certain sectors, the uncertainty surrounding the
COVID-19
pandemic has put a lot of projects on hold in other sectors in the near term. Additionally, no material changes were made to the loan products offered by the Corporation during this period.
PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT
During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Corporation’s premises and equipment increased by $469, or 1.9%, to $25,141 from $24,672 at December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily due to ongoing expansion efforts, including the purchase of 2 branches in the Jackson, Mississippi market partially offset by the sale of an old branch building coupled with depreciation expense.

Noninterest-bearing, interest-bearing and savings accounts increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 while certificates of deposit decreased. As previously discussed, the
COVID-19
savings trend is creating a large increase in
non-time
deposits. Management continually monitors the interest rates on time deposit products to ensure that the Corporation is managing liquidity in line with our asset and liability management objectives. These rate adjustments impact deposit balances.
OFF-BALANCE
SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
Please refer to Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for a discussion of the nature and extent of the Corporation’s
off-balance
sheet arrangements, which consist solely of commitments to fund loans and letters of credit.
 
ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Asset/Liability Management and Interest Rate Risk
The principal objective of our asset and liability management function is to evaluate the interest rate risk within the balance sheet and pursue a controlled assumption of interest rate risk while maximizing net income and preserving adequate levels of liquidity and capital. The Board of Directors of the Bank has oversight of our asset and liability management function, which is managed by our Chief Financial Officer. Our Chief Financial Officer meets with our senior executive management team regularly to review, among other things, the sensitivity of our assets and liabilities to market rate changes, local and national market conditions and market interest rates. That group also reviews our liquidity, capital, deposit mix, loan mix and investment positions.
As a financial institution, our primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Fluctuations in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on most of our assets and liabilities, and the fair value of all interest earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, other than those which have a short term to maturity. Interest rate risk is the potential of economic losses due to future interest rate changes. These economic losses can be reflected as a loss of future net interest income and/or a loss of current fair values.
 
62

We manage our exposure to interest rates primarily by structuring our balance sheet in the ordinary course of business. We do not typically enter into derivative contracts for the purpose of managing interest rate risk, but we may elect to do so should the situation warrant. Based upon the nature of our operations, we are not subject to material foreign exchange or commodity price risk. We do not own any trading assets.
We use an interest rate risk simulation model to test the interest rate sensitivity of net interest income and the balance sheet. Instantaneous parallel rate shift scenarios are modeled and utilized to evaluate risk and establish exposure limits for acceptable changes in projected net interest margin. These scenarios, known as rate shocks, simulate an instantaneous change in interest rates and use various assumptions, including, but not limited to, prepayments on loans and securities, deposit decay rates, pricing decisions on loans and deposits, and reinvestment and replacement of asset and liability cash flows. We also analyze the economic value of equity as a secondary measure of interest rate risk. This is a complementary measure to net interest income where the calculated value is the result of the fair value of assets less the fair value of liabilities. The economic value of equity is a longer-term view of interest rate risk because it measures the present value of all future cash flows. The impact of changes in interest rates on this calculation is analyzed for the risk to our future earnings and is used in conjunction with the analyses on net interest income.
The following table summarizes the simulated change in net interest income assuming a static balance sheet versus unchanged rates as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

Many assumptions are used to calculate the impact of interest rate fluctuations. Actual results may be significantly different than our projections due to several factors, including the timing and frequency of rate changes, market conditions and the shape of the yield curve. The computations of interest rate risk shown above do not include actions that our management may undertake to manage the risks in response to anticipated changes in interest rates, and actual results may also differ due to any actions taken in response to the changing rates.
As part of our asset/liability management strategy, our management has emphasized the origination of shorter duration loans as well as variable rate loans to limit the negative exposure to a rate increase. We also desire to acquire deposit transaction accounts, particularly noninterest or low interest-bearing
non-maturity
deposit accounts, whose cost is less sensitive to changes in interest rates.
 
ITEM 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
The management of the Company, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management as appropriate to allow timely decision regarding required disclosure. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2020 (the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report).
There were no changes to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred in the three months ended September 30, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
 
64

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
The Corporation is a party to lawsuits and other claims that arise in the ordinary course of business, all of which are being vigorously contested. In the regular course of business, management evaluates estimated losses or costs related to litigation, and provisions are made for anticipated losses whenever management believes that such losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. At the present time, management believes, based on the advice of legal counsel, that the final resolution of pending legal proceedings will not likely have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
 
ITEM 1A.
RISK FACTORS.
The Corporation’s business, future
financial condition and results of operations are subject to a number of factors, risks and uncertainties, which are disclosed in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in Part I of our Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2019, which the Corporation filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 13, 2020 and in Item 1A, in Part II of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, which the Corporation filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 8, 2020. Additional information regarding some of those risks and uncertainties is contained in the notes to the consolidated financial statements appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” appearing in Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report and in “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” appearing in Part I, Item 3 of this Quarterly Report.
