The First State Bank Acquisition

In April 2020, the Bank entered into a Purchase and Assumption Agreement with the FDIC, as receiver for First State, providing
for the assumption by the Bank of certain liabilities and the purchase by the Bank of certain assets of First State. This was deemed to be a strategic opportunity to acquire deposits and certain assets of an institution that operated in counties contiguous to the Company's Southern WV market and further solidified the strategy for growth within core commercial markets. The Company has accounted for this acquisition under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, whereby the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded by the Company at their estimated fair values as of their acquisition date. Fair value estimates were based on management's acceptance of a fair market valuation analysis performed by an independent third-party firm.

In first quarter 2020, the Bank submitted a bid to the FDIC which included a bid based upon acquiring loans at a discounted amount, and also assuming the deposits of First State with no deposit premium. The Bank was notified that it was the winning bidder in the process, and the net asset discount accepted by the FDIC was $33.2 million. Immediately after the closing of this transaction, the FDIC remitted these funds to the Bank. As part of this transaction, the Bank acquired three branch locations for aggregate consideration of approximately $1.5 million. Also included was other real estate owned (“OREO”) at 46.5% of the book value, along with deposits with an aggregate value of approximately $140.0 million, cash and investment securities of $37.0 million and loans with a book value of $83.5 million. Net proceeds received from the FDIC for the transaction were $39.6 million.

Management made significant estimates and exercised significant judgement in accounting for the acquisition of First State. Management judgmentally assigned risk ratings to loans based on appraisals and estimated collateral values, expected cash flows, prepayment speeds and estimated loss factors to measure fair values for the acquired loans. Premises and equipment was valued based on recent appraised values. Management used quoted or current market prices to determine the fair value of investment securities. These values are subject to change based on continued evaluations of appraisals and other loan-related assumptions.

The statement of net assets acquired and the resulting bargain purchase gain recorded is presented in the following tables. As explained in the notes that accompany the following table, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at the acquisition date fair value.

The Company recorded all loans acquired at the estimated fair value on the purchase date, with no carryover of the related allowance for loan losses. On the acquisition date, the Company segmented the loan portfolio into six loan pools: performing commercial, performing commercial real estate, performing consumer and residential real estate, classified commercial, classified commercial real estate and classified consumer and residential real estate. Of the 934 loans acquired, 663 were determined to be of deteriorated credit and were accounted for under ASC 310-30 as PCI loans. The 271 remaining loans acquired were accounted for under ASC 310-20 as purchased performing loans. Other purchased loans include premium finance loans, credit cards and overdrawn escrow accounts.

The Company had an independent third-party determine the net discounted value of cash flows on approximately 718 performing loans totaling $39.5 million. The valuation took into consideration the loans' underlying characteristics, including account types, remaining terms, annual interest rates, interest types, past delinquencies, timing of principal and interest payments, current market rates, loan to value ratios, loss exposures and remaining balances. These performing loans were segmented into pools based on loan and payment type and in some cases, risk grade.

The Company established a credit risk-related non-accretable difference of $24.8 million relating to these acquired, credit-impaired loans, reflected in the recorded net fair value. It further estimated the timing and amount of expected cash flows in excess of the estimated fair value and established an accretable discount adjustment of $11.7 million at acquisition relating to
these impaired loans.
