Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and to the general practices within the banking industry. In management’s opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included. Certain amounts presented in the consolidated financial statements of prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current year presentations. The reclassifications had no effect on net income, net income per share, or shareholders’ equity as previously reported. All dollar amounts included in the tables in these notes are in thousands, except per share data, unless otherwise stated.
Loans	Loans are reported at their recorded investment, which is the outstanding principal balance net of any unearned income and costs, such as deferred fees and costs, charge-offs, and discounts or premiums on acquired or purchased loans. Interest on loans is recognized in earnings over the contractual term of the loan and is calculated using the effective interest method on principal amounts outstanding. Loan fees and certain direct origination costs are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield over the contractual term of the loan, adjusted for early pay-offs or principal curtailments, as applicable. All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off are reversed against interest income at the time the loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off. Any subsequent interest received on these loans is recognized as interest income under the cash basis method of accounting or applied as a reduction of the principal balance of the loan until the loan qualifies for return to accrual status. Generally, a loan is returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured, or the loan becomes well-secured and in the process of collection.
Internal Risk Ratings	Internal Risk Ratings Loans in the Company’s loan portfolio are risk rated on a periodic basis by experienced credit personnel. Risk rating categories are as follows: Pass – Several pass credit risk ratings apply to loans in this category. These ratings are assigned based on varying levels of risk, ranging from credits that are secured by cash or marketable securities to management attention credits that have all characteristics of an acceptable credit risk but warrant more than the normal level of monitoring. Special Mention – Adverse trends in the borrower’s financial position are evident and warrant management’s close attention for loans risk rated special mention. Any collateral securing loans in this category may not be fully adequate to secure the loan balance. Substandard – A loan in this category has a well-defined weakness in the primary repayment source that jeopardizes the timely collection of the loan. There is a distinct possibility that a loss may result if the weakness is not corrected. Doubtful – Default has already occurred and it is likely that foreclosure or repossession procedures have begun or will begin in the near future. Weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, based on currently existing information, highly questionable and improbable. Loss – Uncollectible and of such little value that continuance as an asset is not warranted.
Allowance for Loan Losses	The allowance for loan losses (“ALL”) reflects management’s estimate of probable loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. Management uses a disciplined process and methodology to establish the ALL each quarter-end. To determine the total ALL, the Company estimates the reserves needed for each homogenous type of the loan category and for any loans analyzed individually for impairment. Depending on the nature of each loan type, considerations include historical loss experience, adverse situations that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay, credit scores, past due history, estimated value of any underlying collateral, prevailing local and national economic conditions, and internal policies and procedures including credit risk management and underwriting. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as conditions change. The ALL consists of specific, general, and unallocated components. The specific component is determined by identifying impaired loans (as described below) then evaluating each one individually to calculate the amount of impairment. Impaired loans measured individually for impairment generally include (1) any loan risk rated substandard or worse with balances of $400 thousand or more, and (2) all loans designated as TDRs. For the general component of the ALL, the Company collectively evaluates loans not evaluated individually for a specific reserve, plus impaired loans risk rated substandard or worse with balances less than $400 thousand. All loans evaluated collectively are grouped into types, and historical loss experience is calculated and applied to each loan type and the resultant reserve is adjusted for qualitative factors. Qualitative factors include changes in local and national economic indicators, such as unemployment rates, interest rates, gross domestic product growth, and real estate market trends; the level of past due and nonaccrual loans; risk ratings on individual loans; strength of credit policies and procedures; loan officer experience; borrower credit scores; and other intrinsic risks related to the types and geographic locations of loans. These qualitative adjustments reflect management’s judgment of risks inherent in the types. An unallocated component is maintained, if needed, to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses.
Troubled Debt Restructuring	Troubled Debt Restructurings In some situations, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial condition, the Company may grant a concession to a borrower that it would not otherwise consider. Concessions include new terms that provide for a reduction of the face amount or maturity amount of the debt as stated in the original agreement, a reduction (absolute or contingent) of the stated interest rate for the remaining original life of the loan, and/or an extension of the maturity date or dates at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk. Concessions granted to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties results in a loan that is subsequently classified as a troubled debt restructuring. Management strives to identify borrowers in financial difficulty early and work with them to modify their loan to more affordable terms before their loan reaches nonaccrual status to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of underlying collateral, if any. TDRs are considered impaired loans and are individually evaluated for impairment for the ALL.

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and to the general practices within the banking industry. In management’s opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included.

Certain amounts presented in the consolidated financial statements of prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current year presentations. The reclassifications had no effect on net income, net income per share, or shareholders’ equity as previously reported.

All dollar amounts included in the tables in these notes are in thousands, except per share data, unless otherwise stated.

Loans

Loans are reported at their recorded investment, which is the outstanding principal balance net of any unearned income and costs, such as deferred fees and costs, charge-offs, and discounts or premiums on acquired or purchased loans. Interest on loans is recognized in earnings over the contractual term of the loan and is calculated using the effective interest method on principal amounts outstanding. Loan fees and certain direct origination costs are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield over the contractual term of the loan, adjusted for early pay-offs or principal curtailments, as applicable.

All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off are reversed against interest income at the time the loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off. Any subsequent interest received on these loans is recognized as interest income under the cash basis method of accounting or applied as a reduction of the principal balance of the loan until the loan qualifies

for return to accrual status. Generally, a loan is returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured, or the loan becomes well-secured and in the process of collection.
