Cash Flow Hedge

Note 11. Cash Flow Hedge

The Company designates derivatives as cash flow hedges when they are used to manage exposure to variability in cash flows related to forecasted transactions on variable rate borrowings, such as FHLB borrowings, repurchase agreements, and brokered CDs.  The Company had interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges with total notional amounts of $20 million and $10 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.  The swaps were entered into with a counterparty that met the Company’s credit standards, and the agreements contain collateral provisions protecting the at-risk party. The Company believes that the credit risk inherent in the contracts is not significant. The Company had $660,000 and $180,000 of cash pledged as collateral at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Amounts receivable or payable are recognized as accrued under the terms of the agreements. In accordance with FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, the Company has designated the swaps as cash flow hedges, with the derivatives’ unrealized gains or losses recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. The Company has assessed the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in cash flows on the designated hedged item. The Company’s cash flow hedge was deemed to be highly effective for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The Company recorded a fair value liability of $730,000 and $44,000 in other liabilities at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The net losses were recorded as a component of other comprehensive income net of associated tax effects.
