1.Presentation of Interim Information

 

First Savings Financial Group, Inc. (the “Company”) is a financial holding company and the parent of First Savings Bank (the “Bank”) and First Savings Insurance Risk Management, Inc. (the “Captive”).

 

The Bank, which is a wholly-owned Indiana-chartered commercial bank subsidiary of the Company, provides a variety of banking services to individuals and business customers through 16 locations in southern Indiana. The Bank attracts deposits primarily from the general public and uses those funds, along with other borrowings, primarily to originate commercial mortgage, residential mortgage, construction, commercial business and consumer loans, and to a lesser extent, to invest in mortgage-backed securities, municipal bonds and other investment securities. The Bank has two wholly-owned subsidiaries: First Savings Investments, Inc., a Nevada corporation that manages a securities portfolio, and Southern Indiana Financial Corporation, which is currently inactive.

 

The Captive, which is a wholly-owned insurance subsidiary of the Company, is a Nevada corporation that provides property and casualty insurance to the Company, the Bank and the Bank’s active subsidiaries. In addition, the Captive provides reinsurance to 11 other third-party insurance captives for which insurance may not be currently available or economically feasible in the insurance marketplace.

 

On April 25, 2017, the Bank formed Q2 Business Capital, LLC (“Q2”), which is an Indiana limited liability company that specializes in the origination and servicing of U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans. The Bank owns 51% of Q2 with the option to purchase the minority interest between July 1, 2020 and September 30, 2020. In accordance with Q2’s operating agreement, the Bank was allocated the first $1.7 million of Q2’s cumulative net income with any additional profits and losses allocated 51% to the Bank and 49% to Q2’s minority members.

 

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments considered necessary to present fairly the financial position as of March 31, 2020, the results of operations for the three- and six-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, and the cash flows for the six-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. All of these adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Such adjustments are the only adjustments included in the unaudited consolidated financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements, conform to general practices within the banking industry and are presented as permitted by the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not contain certain information included in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended September 30, 2019 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on net income or stockholders’ equity.

The Company obtains pricing for its available for sale securities portfolio from an independent third party pricing service approximately 10 days prior to each month end. Due to significant market movements at the end of March 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the values obtained for the available for sale securities portfolio showed a significant decrease compared to the prior quarter. However, based on changes in the market subsequent to the valuation date management believes the decrease in the valuation of the available for sale securities portfolio would have been partially mitigated at March 31, 2020.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

 

The total available for sale debt securities in loss positions at March 31, 2020, which consisted of U.S. government agency mortgage backed securities and CMOs, privately issued CMOs, SBA certificates and municipal bonds, had a fair value as a percentage of amortized cost of 96.96%. All of the agency and municipal securities are issued by U.S. government-sponsored enterprises and municipal governments, and are generally secured by first mortgage loans and municipal project revenues.

 

The Company evaluates the existence of a potential credit loss component related to the decline in fair value of the privately issued CMO and ABS portfolios each quarter using an independent third party analysis. At March 31, 2020, the Company held twelve privately-issued CMO and ABS securities, acquired in a 2009 bank merger, with an aggregate amortized cost of $984,000 and fair value of $959,000 that have been downgraded to a substandard regulatory classification due to the security’s credit quality rating by various nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (“NRSROs”).

 

At March 31, 2020, four privately-issued CMO securities and two privately-issued ABS were in a loss position and had depreciated approximately 6.16% from the Company’s carrying value and were collateralized by residential mortgage loans. These securities had a total fair value of $1.5 million and a total unrealized loss of $96,000 at March 31, 2020. The two privately-issued ABS and one privately-issued CMO were rated below investment grade by NRSROs, and had a total fair value of $948,000 and a total unrealized loss of $28,000. The remaining three privately-issued CMO securities were rated above investment grade by NRSROs, and had a total fair value of $511,000 and a total unrealized loss of $68,000. Based on the independent third party analysis of the expected cash flows, management determined that no other-than-temporary impairment was required to be recognized on the privately issued CMO and ABS portfolios at March 31, 2020. While the Company does not anticipate additional credit-related impairment losses at March 31, 2020, additional deterioration in market and economic conditions may have an adverse impact on the credit quality of the portfolio, and therefore, require a credit related impairment charge in the future.

 

The unrealized losses on U.S. government agency mortgage-backed securities and CMOs, SBA certificates and municipal bonds relate principally to current interest rates for similar types of securities. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government, its agencies, or other governments, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition. As management has the ability to hold debt securities to maturity, or for the foreseeable future if classified as available for sale, no declines are deemed to be other-than-temporary.

During the six-month period ended March 31, 2020, there was no significant change in the Company’s lending activities or the methodology used to estimate the allowance for loan losses as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019. Certain qualitative factors used to determine the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2020 were increased due to economic uncertainties related to the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”).

 

At March 31, 2020 and September 30, 2019, the Bank did not own any residential real estate properties where physical possession has been obtained. At March 31, 2020 and September 30, 2019, the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate properties in the process of foreclosure was $1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively.
