NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Interim Financial Statements

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Landmark Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Landmark National Bank (the “Bank”) and Landmark Risk Management Inc., have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, containing the latest audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. The consolidated financial statements in this report have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm, but in the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial statements have been reflected herein. The results of the six month interim period ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the year ending December 31, 2018 or any other future time period. The Company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition and disclosure up to the date the financial statements were issued.

 

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all subsequent amendments to the ASU (collectively, “ASC 606”), which (i) creates a single framework for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers that fall within its scope and (ii) revises when it is appropriate to recognize a gain (loss) from the transfer of non-financial assets, such as real estate owned. The majority of the Company’s revenues come from interest income and other sources, including loans, leases, securities and derivatives that are outside the scope of ASC 606. Services within the scope of ASC 606 include deposit service charges on deposits, interchange income, and the sale of real estate owned. Refer to footnote 7 to the financial statements, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, for further discussion on the Company’s accounting policies for revenue sources within the scope of ASC 606.

 

The Company adopted ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method applied to all contracts not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under ASC 606 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with legacy GAAP. The adoption of ASC 606 did not result in a change to the accounting for any of the in-scope revenue streams. As such, no cumulative effect adjustment was recorded.

 

In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments (Topic 825): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities. The main provisions of the update are to eliminate the available for sale classification of accounting for equity securities and to adjust the fair value disclosures for financial instruments carried at amortized costs such that the disclosed fair values represent an exit price as opposed to an entry price. The provisions of this update will require that equity securities be carried at fair market value on the balance sheet and any periodic changes in value will be adjustments to the income statement. A practical expedient is provided for equity securities without a readily determinable fair value, such that these securities can be carried at cost less any impairment. The provisions of this update became effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company adopted ASU 2016-01 effective January 1, 2018. Effective January 1, 2018, changes in the value of the Company’s common stock investments are adjustments to the income statement. Additionally, the disclosure of fair value of the loan portfolio is presented using an exit price method instead of the discounted cash method previously utilized. Management has concluded that the requirements of this update did not have a material impact to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Payments (a consensus of Emerging Issues Task Force). This ASU attempts to clarify how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The purpose of this update is to reduce existing diversity in practice in eight areas addressed by the update. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2016-15 effective January 1, 2018. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not result in any material changes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

The Company’s U.S. treasury portfolio consists of securities issued by the United States Department of the Treasury. The receipt of principal and interest on U.S. treasury securities is guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government. Based on these factors, along with the Company’s intent to not sell the security and its belief that it was more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell the security before recovery of their cost basis, the Company believed that the U.S. treasury security identified in the table above was temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

The Company’s U.S. federal agency portfolio consists of securities issued by the government-sponsored agencies of Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”), Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”) and Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”). The receipt of principal and interest on U.S. federal agency obligations is guaranteed by the respective government-sponsored agency guarantor, such that the Company believes that its U.S. federal agency obligations do not expose the Company to credit-related losses. Based on these factors, along with the Company’s intent to not sell the securities and its belief that it was more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell the securities before recovery of their cost basis, the Company believed that the U.S. federal agency obligations identified in the tables above were temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

 

The Company’s portfolio of municipal obligations consists of both tax-exempt and taxable general obligations securities issued by various municipalities. The Company did not intend to sell and it was more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell its municipal obligations in an unrealized loss position until the recovery of their costs. Due to the issuers’ continued satisfaction of the securities’ obligations in accordance with their contractual terms and the expectation that they will continue to do so, the evaluation of the fundamentals of the issuers’ financial condition and other objective evidence, the Company believed that the municipal obligations identified in the tables above were temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

 

The Company’s agency mortgage-backed securities portfolio consists of securities underwritten to the standards of and guaranteed by the government-sponsored agencies of FHLMC, FNMA and the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”). The receipt of principal, at par, and interest on agency mortgage-backed securities is guaranteed by the respective government-sponsored agency guarantor, such that the Company believed that its agency mortgage-backed securities did not expose the Company to credit-related losses. Based on these factors, along with the Company’s intent to not sell the securities and the Company’s belief that it was more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell the securities before recovery of their cost basis, the Company believed that the agency mortgage-backed securities identified in the tables above were temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

 

The table below sets forth amortized cost and fair value of investment securities at June 30, 2018. The table includes scheduled principal payments and estimated prepayments, based on observable market inputs, for agency mortgage-backed securities. Actual maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers have the right to prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties.

The Company’s impaired loans decreased from $9.8 million at December 31, 2017 to $9.0 million at June 30, 2018. The difference between the unpaid contractual principal and the impaired loan balance is a result of charge-offs recorded against impaired loans. The difference in the Company’s non-accrual loan balances and impaired loan balances at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, was related to troubled debt restructurings (“TDR”) that are current and accruing interest, but still classified as impaired. Interest income recognized on a cash basis on impaired loans was immaterial during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

The Company’s key credit quality indicator is a loan’s performance status, defined as accruing or non-accruing. Performing loans are considered to have a lower risk of loss. Non-accrual loans are those which the Company believes have a higher risk of loss. The accrual of interest on non-performing loans is discontinued at the time the loan is ninety days delinquent, unless the credit is well secured and in process of collection. Loans are placed on non-accrual or are charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. There were no loans ninety days or more delinquent and accruing interest at June 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017.

Under the original terms of the Company’s non-accrual loans, interest earned on such loans for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 would have increased interest income by $132,000 and $63,000, respectively. No interest income related to non-accrual loans was included in interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

 

The Company also categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of the borrowers to service their debt such as current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis is performed on a quarterly basis. Non-classified loans generally include those loans that are expected to be repaid in accordance with contractual loan terms. Classified loans are those that are assigned a special mention, substandard or doubtful risk rating using the following definitions:

 

Special Mention: Loans are currently protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged but such protection is potentially weak. These loans constitute an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a classification of substandard. The credit risk may be relatively minor, yet constitutes an unwarranted risk in light of the circumstances surrounding a specific asset.

 

Substandard: Loans are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged. Loans have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. Loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

 

Doubtful: Loans classified doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable.

 

The following table provides information on the Company’s risk categories by loan class:

At June 30, 2018, the Company had 12 loan relationships consisting of 17 outstanding loans that were classified as TDRs. During the second quarter of 2018, the Company classified an agriculture loan totaling $64,000 as a TDR after originating a loan to an existing loan relationship that was classified as a TDR in 2016. As part of the restructuring the borrower paid off three loans previously classified as TDRs. The Company also classified a $41,000 commercial loan as a TDR after extending the maturity of the loan during the second quarter of 2018. There were no loans classified as TDRs during the first three months of 2018. Since the agriculture loan relationship was adequately secured, no impairments were recorded against the principal as of June 30, 2018. The commercial loan had a $11,000 impairment recorded against the principal balance as of June 30, 2018.

 

During the second quarter of 2017, the Company classified two agriculture loans totaling $87,000 as TDRs after renewing loans to an existing loan relationship that was classified as a TDR in 2016. These two loans were paid off in the second quarter of 2018. During the first quarter of 2017, the Company classified an $11,000 commercial real estate loan as a TDR after extending the maturity of the loan and classified as a TDR a $15,000 agriculture loan extended to an existing loan relationship that was classified as a TDR in 2016. Since the commercial real estate loan was adequately secured, no charge-offs or impairments were recorded against the principal as of June 30, 2017. The agriculture loan relationship had a $49,000 impairment recorded against the principal balance as of June 30, 2017 and a charge-off of $215,000 was recorded in the third quarter of 2016.

The Company evaluates each TDR individually and returns the loan to accrual status when a payment history is established after the restructuring and future payments are reasonably assured. There were no loans that were classified as TDRs that defaulted within 12 months of modification during the first six months of 2018.

Fair value at December 31, 2017 was determined using discount rates ranging from 9.50% to 9.59%, prepayment speeds ranging from 5.23% to 33.39%, depending on the stratification of the specific mortgage servicing right, and a weighted average default rate of 2.26%.

 

The Company had a mortgage repurchase reserve of $235,000 at both June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, which represents the Company’s best estimate of probable losses that the Company will incur related to the repurchase of one-to-four family residential real estate loans previously sold or to reimburse investors for credit losses incurred on loans previously sold where a breach of the contractual representations and warranties occurred. The Company did not incur any losses charged against the reserve or make any provisions to the reserve during the first six months of 2018 and 2017. As of June 30, 2018, the Company did not have any outstanding mortgage repurchase requests.

5. Earnings per Share

 

Basic earnings per share have been computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share include the effect of all potential common shares outstanding during each period. The shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share are shown below:

 

   Three months ended   Six months ended 
(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)  June 30,   June 30, 
   2018   2017   2018   2017 
Net earnings(1)  $2,845   $2,383   $4,944   $4,588 
                     
Weighted average common shares outstanding - basic (1)   4,141,894    4,064,092    4,124,947    4,063,692 
Assumed exercise of stock options (1)   18,693    84,092    18,544    83,040 
Weighted average common shares outstanding - diluted (1)   4,160,587    4,148,184    4,143,491    4,146,732 
Net earnings per share (1):                    
Basic  $0.69   $0.59   $1.20   $1.13 
Diluted  $0.68   $0.58   $1.19   $1.11 

 

(1) Share and per share values for the periods ended June 30, 2017 have been adjusted to give effect to the 5% stock dividend paid during December 2017.

 

The diluted earnings per share computations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 include all unexercised stock options because no stock options were anti-dilutive during such periods.
