PART I

Item 1. BUSINESS.

General

Embassy Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Pennsylvania corporation organized in 2008 and registered as a bank holding company pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act”). The Company was formed for purposes of acquiring Embassy Bank For The Lehigh Valley (the “Bank”) in connection with the reorganization of the Bank into a bank holding company structure, which was consummated on November 11, 2008. Accordingly, the Company owns all of the capital stock of the Bank, giving the organization more flexibility in meeting its capital needs as the Company continues to grow.

The Bank, which is the Company’s principal operating subsidiary, was originally incorporated as a Pennsylvania bank on May 11, 2001 and opened its doors on November 6, 2001. It was formed by a group of local business persons and professionals with significant prior experience in community banking in the Lehigh Valley area of Pennsylvania, the Bank’s primary market area.

Mission

The Company provides a traditional range of financial products and services to meet the depository and credit needs of individual consumers, small and medium sized businesses and professionals in its market area. As a locally owned and operated community bank, there is a strong focus on service that is highly personalized, efficient and responsive to local needs. It is the intention of the Company to deliver its products and services with the care and professionalism expected of a community bank and with a special dedication to personalized service. To create this environment, the Company employs a well-trained, highly motivated staff, all with previous banking experience, and interested in building quality client relationships using state-of-the-art delivery systems and client service facilities. The Company’s senior management has extensive banking experience. The Company’s goal is to serve the financial needs of its clients and provide a profitable return to its investors, consistent with safe and sound banking practices.The Company focuses on establishing and retaining customer relationships by offering a broad range of financial services, competitively-priced and delivered in a responsive manner. Correspondent relationships are utilized where it is cost beneficial. The specific objectives of the Company are: 1) to provide individuals, professionals and local businesses with the highest standard of relationship banking in the local market; 2) to attract deposits and loans by offering state of the art products and services with competitive pricing; 3) to provide a reasonable return to shareholders on capital invested; and 4) to attract, train and retain a happy, motivated and team oriented group of banking professionals dedicated to meeting the Company’s objectives.

Market “Niche”

The Company provides the traditional array of commercial banking products and services emphasizing one-on-one delivery to consumers and businesses located in Lehigh and Northampton Counties in Pennsylvania. In the Company’s primary market area, which is dominated by offices of large statewide, regional and interstate banking institutions, banking services that are furnished in a friendly and courteous manner with a timely response to customer needs fill a “niche” that arises due to the loss of local institutions through merger and acquisitions.

Deposits

The Company offers small business cash management services to help local companies better manage their cash flow, in order for the Company to attract and retain stable deposit relationships. The expertise and experience of the Company’s management coupled with the latest technology accessed through third party providers enables the Company to maximize the growth of business-related deposits.

As for consumers, deposit growth is driven by a variety of factors including, but not limited to, population growth, bank and non-bank competition, increase in household income, interest rates, accessibility of location and the sales efforts of Company personnel. Time deposits can be attracted and/or increased by paying an interest rate higher than

4

Embassy Bancorp, Inc.                                                                                                                          

that offered by competitors, but they are the most costly type of deposit. The most profitable type of deposits are non-interest bearing demand (checking) accounts which can be attracted by offering free checking. However, both high interest rates and free checking accounts generate certain expenses for a bank and the desire to increase deposits must be balanced with the need to be profitable. The deposit services of the Company are generally comprised of demand deposits, savings deposits, money market deposits, time deposits and Individual Retirement Accounts.

Loans

The loan portfolio of the Company consists primarily of secured fixed-rate and variable-rate loans, with a significant concentration in commercial-purpose transactions and consumer residential mortgage and home equity loans. While most credit facilities are appropriately collateralized, major emphasis is placed upon the financial condition of the borrower and evaluating the borrower’s cash flow versus debt service requirements. The Company has an experienced lending team. The Company believes that the familiarity of its experienced management team and members of the Company’s Loan Committee with prospective local borrowers enables the Company to better evaluate the character, integrity and creditworthiness of the prospective borrowers.

Loan growth is driven by customer demand, which in turn is influenced by individual and business indebtedness and consumer demand for goods. The Company’s loan officers call upon accountants, financial planners, attorneys, local realtorsand others to generate loan referrals. A performing loan is a loan which is being repaid according to its original terms and is the most desirable type of loan that a bank seeks to make. Again, a balancing act is required for the Company inasmuch as loaning money will always entail some risk. Without loaning money, however, a bank cannot generate enough earnings to be profitable. The risk involved in each loan must, therefore, be carefully evaluated before the loan is made. The interest rate at which the loan is made should always reflect the risk factors involved, including the term of the loan, the value of collateral, if any, the reliability of the projected source of repayment and the amount of the loan requested. Credit quality will always be the Company’s most important factor.

The Company has not been involved in any “sub-prime” mortgage lending and has not purchased or invested in any securities backed by or which include sub-prime loans.

Business Lending

The Company is generally targeting businesses with annual revenues of less than $20 million. These customers tend to be ignored by the larger institutions and have felt the most negative effects of the recent bank consolidations. The Company offers responsiveness, flexibility and local decision making for loan applications of small business owners thereby eliminating delays caused by non-local management. The Company participates in programs offered through local, state and federal programs and may participate in Small Business Administration (SBA) programs.

Consumer Lending

The Company offers its retail customer base a product line of consumer loan services including mortgage loans, secured home equity loans, lines of credit, auto loans, and to a much lesser extent, unsecured personal loans.

Residential Mortgage Loans

The Company offers a range of specialty home equity and mortgage products at competitive rates. The Company seeks to capitalize on its policy of closing loans in a time frame that will meet the needs of its borrowers.

Commercial Mortgage/Construction Loans

The Company originates various types of loans secured by real estate, including, to a limited extent, construction loans. Construction loans are generally priced at floating rates tied to current market rates. Upon completion of construction, these loans may be converted into permanent commercial and residential loans. Construction lending is expected to constitute a minor portion of the Company’s loan portfolio.

Embassy Bancorp, Inc.                                                                                                                          

In some cases, the Company originates loans larger than its lending limit and enters into participation arrangements for those loans with other banks.

As an independent community bank, the Company serves the special needs of legal, medical, accounting, financial service providers and other professionals. Commercial mortgages, lines of credit, term loans and demand loans are tailored to meet the needs of the Company’s customers in the professional community. In addition to the usual criteria for pricing credit-related products, the Company takes into consideration the overall customer relationship to establish credit pricing. Deposit relationships in demand, savings, money market, and certificate accounts are considered in loan pricing along with the credit worthiness of the borrower.

Other Services

To further attract and retain customer relationships, the Company provides or will provide the standard array of financial services expected of a community bank, which include the following:

Treasurer Checks	Remote Deposit Capture
Certified Checks	Safe Deposit Boxes
Gift Cards	Night Depository Services
Wire Transfers	Bond Coupon Redemptions
Savings Bond Redemptions	Bank by Mail
Credit/Debit Card Merchant Processing	Automated Teller Machines
Direct Deposit/ACH Services	On-Line Banking and Bill Pay
Cash Management Services	Commercial Credit Cards
Escrow Management Services	ATM and Debit  Cards

Fee Income

Fee income is non-interest related. The Company earns fee income by charging customers for banking services, credit card and merchant processing, treasurer’s checks, overdrafts, wire transfers, bond coupon redemptions, and check orders, as well as other deposit and loan related fees.

Community Reinvestment Act

The Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 (“CRA”) is designed to create a system for bank regulatory agencies to evaluate a depository institution’s record in meeting the credit needs of its community. The Company had its last CRA examination in 2012 and received a “satisfactory” rating.

The Company’s Directors and Officers are committed to reaching out to the community in which they live and work. The personal, business and community rewards for helping local residents and businesses are numerous. The Board is dedicated to recognizing an ongoing commitment and understanding of the Company’s responsibility under the CRA. The Company is committed to providing access to credit and deposit products for all members of the communities that it serves.

Service Area

The Company draws its primary deposits and business from areas immediately surrounding its principal office in Hanover Township, Pennsylvania and its branch offices in South Whitehall Township, Lower Macungie Township, the City of Bethlehem, Salisbury Township, Lower Saucon Township and Lower Nazareth Township, Pennsylvania, as well as the remainder of Lehigh and Northampton Counties in Pennsylvania.

Embassy Bancorp, Inc.                                                                                                                          

Bank Premises

The Company leases each of its bank operations premises, situated at the following locations:

1. Hanover Township, Northampton County

2. South Whitehall Township, Lehigh County

3. Salisbury Township, Lehigh County

4. Lower Macungie Township, Lehigh County

5. City of Bethlehem, Lehigh County

6. Lower Saucon Township, Northampton County

7. Lower Nazareth Township, Northampton County

The Company pays certain additional expenses of occupying these spaces including, but not necessarily limited to, real estate taxes, insurance, utilities and repairs. The Company is obligated under the leases to maintain the premises in good order, condition and repair.

Employees

As of December 31, 2012, the Company had a total of 70 full-time equivalent employees.

Competition

The banking business is highly competitive. The Company competes with local banks as well as numerous regionally based commercial banks, most of which have assets, capital and lending limits far larger than those of the Company. The Company also competes with savings banks, savings and loan associations, money market funds, insurance companies, stock brokerage firms, regulated small loan companies, credit unions and with the issuers of commercial paper and other securities. The industry competes primarily in the area of interest rates, products offered, customer service and convenience.

Among the advantages many of the Company’s competitors have over the Company are larger asset and capital bases, the ability to finance wide-ranging advertising campaigns and to allocate their investment assets to regions of highest yield and demand. Larger companies have market presence in the form of more branch offices. The Company’s growth in number of offices has improved its ability to compete in the market. The Company believes it is able to compete with the market in terms of interest rate and level of customer service, as reflected in growth in market share. Many competitors offer certain services such as trust services, investment services and international banking that are not offered directly by the Company and, by virtue of their greater capital, most competitors will have substantially higher lending limits than those of the Company.

Segments

The Company acts as an independent community financial services provider and offers traditional banking and related financial services to individual, business and government customers. The Company offers a full array of commercial and retail financial services, including the taking of time, savings and demand deposits; the making of commercial, consumer, residential mortgage and home equity loans; and the providing of other financial services.

Management does not separately allocate expenses, including the cost of funding loan demand, between commercial and retail operations of the Company. As such, discrete financial information is not available and segment reporting would not be meaningful.

Seasonality

Management does not feel that the deposits, loans, or the business of the Company are seasonal in nature. Deposit and loan generation may, however, vary with local and national economic and market conditions, but should not have a material effect on planning and policy making.

Embassy Bancorp, Inc.                                                                                                                          

Supervision and Regulation

The Company is subject to extensive regulation under federal and Pennsylvania banking laws, regulations and policies, including prescribed standards relating to capital, earnings, dividends, the repurchase or redemption of shares, loans or extensions of credit to affiliates and insiders, internal controls, information systems, internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, asset growth, impaired assets and loan-to-value ratios. The bank regulatory framework is intended primarily for the protection of depositors, federal deposit insurance funds and the banking systems as a whole, and not for the protection of security holders.

The following summary sets forth certain of the material elements of the regulatory framework applicable to bank holding companies and their bank subsidiaries and provides certain specific information about the Company and the Bank. It does not describe all of the provisions of the statutes, regulations and policies that are identified. To the extent that the following information describes statutory and regulatory provisions, it is qualified in its entirety by express reference to each of the particular statutory and regulatory provisions. A change in applicable statutes, regulations or regulatory policy may have a material effect on the business of the Company.

Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act

As a result of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), which became law on July 21, 2010, there is additional regulatory oversight and supervision of the Company and the Bank.  The Dodd-Frank Act significantly changes the regulation of financial institutions and the financial services industry.  The Dodd-Frank Act includes, and the regulations being developed thereunder will include, provisions affecting large and small financial institutions alike, including several provisions that affect the regulations of community banks and bank holding companies.

The Dodd-Frank Act, among other things, imposes new capital requirements on bank holding companies; changes the base for FDIC insurance assessments to a bank’s average consolidated total assets minus average tangible equity, rather than upon its deposit base; permanently raises the current standard deposit insurance limit to $250,000; and expands the FDIC’s authority to raise insurance premiums.  The legislation also calls for the FDIC to raise its ratio of reserves to deposits from 1.15% to 1.35% for deposit insurance purposes by September 30, 2020 and to “offset the effect” of increased assessments on insured depository institutions with assets of less than $10 billion.

The Dodd-Frank Act also includes provisions that affect corporate governance and executive compensation at all publicly-traded companies and allows financial institutions to pay interest on business checking accounts.  The legislation also restricts proprietary trading, places restrictions on the owning or sponsoring of hedge and private equity funds, and regulates the derivatives activities of banks and their affiliates.  The Dodd-Frank Act also establishes the Financial Stability Oversight Council to identify threats to the financial stability of the U.S., promote market discipline, and respond to emerging threats to the stability of the U.S. financial system.

The Dodd-Frank Act and the regulations adopted thereunder subject financial institutions to additional restrictions, oversight and costs that may have an adverse impact on their business, financial condition, results of operations or the price of the common stock. The Dodd-Frank Act substantially increases regulation of the financial services industry and imposes restrictions on the operations and general ability of firms within the industry to conduct business consistent with historical practices. However, the ultimate effect of the Dodd-Frank Act on the financial services industry in general, and the Company in particular, is uncertain at this time.

Federal Deposit Insurance (“FDI”) Act and Part 363 of the FDIC Regulations

Section 36 of the FDI Act and Part 363 of the FDIC's regulations, as amended, require insured depository institutions with at least $500 million in total assets to file a Part 363 Annual Report with the applicable bank regulatory agencies, which, among other things, requires that the Company establish and maintain an adequate internal control structure over financial reporting and provide an assessment by management of the institution's compliance with the designated laws and regulations pertaining to insider loans and dividend restrictions.

Bank Holding Company Regulation

As a bank holding company, the Company is subject to regulation and examination by the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities (the “Pennsylvania Department of Banking”) and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve Board”).  The Company is required to file with the Federal Reserve Board an annual report and such additional information as the Federal Reserve Board may require pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act”). The BHC Act requires each bank holding company to obtain the approval of the Federal Reserve Board before it may acquire substantially all the assets of any bank, or before it may acquire ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank if, after such acquisition, it would own or control, directly or indirectly, more than five percent of the voting shares of such bank. Such a transaction may also require approval of the Pennsylvania Department of Banking. Pennsylvania law permits Pennsylvania bank holding companies to control an unlimited number of banks.

Pursuant to provisions of the BHC Act and regulations promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board thereunder, the Company may only engage in or own companies that engage in activities deemed by the Federal Reserve Board to be so closely related to the business of banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto, and the holding company must obtain permission from the Federal Reserve Board prior to engaging in most new business activities.

A bank holding company and its subsidiaries are subject to certain restrictions imposed by the BHC Act on any extensions of credit to the bank or any of its subsidiaries, investments in the stock or securities thereof, and on the taking of such stock or securities as collateral for loans to any borrower. A bank holding company and its subsidiaries are also prevented from engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in connection with any extension of credit, lease or sale of property or furnishing of services.

Under the Dodd-Frank Act and Federal Reserve Board regulations, a bank holding company is required to serve as a source of financial and managerial strength to its subsidiary banks and may not conduct its operations in an unsafe or unsound manner.  In addition, in serving as a source of strength to its subsidiary banks, a bank holding company should stand ready to use available resources to provide adequate capital funds to its subsidiary banks during periods of financial stress or adversity and should maintain the financial flexibility and capital-raising capacity to obtain additional resources for assisting its subsidiary banks. A bank holding company’s failure to meet its obligations to serve as a source of strength to its subsidiary banks will generally be considered by the Federal Reserve Board to be an unsafe and unsound banking practice or a violation of the Federal Reserve Board regulations or both. This doctrine is commonly known as the “source of strength” doctrine.

The Federal banking regulators have adopted risk-based capital guidelines for bank holding companies. Currently, the required minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets (including off-balance sheet activities, such as standby letters of credit) is 8% (10% in order to be considered “well-capitalized”). At least 4% of the total capital (6% to be well-capitalized) is required to be Tier 1 capital, consisting principally of common shareholders’ equity, related surplus, retained earnings, qualifying perpetual preferred stock, and minority interests in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less goodwill and certain other intangibles. The remainder (Tier 2 capital) may consist of a limited amount of subordinated debt, certain hybrid capital instruments and other debt securities, qualifying preferred stock and a limited amount of the general loan loss allowance.

In addition to the risk-based capital guidelines, the federal banking regulators established minimum leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to total assets) guidelines for bank holding companies. These guidelines provide for a minimum leverage ratio of 3% for those bank holding companies which have the highest regulatory examination ratings and are not contemplating or experiencing significant growth or expansion. All other bank holding companies are required to maintain a leverage ratio of at least 4%.

At December 31, 2012, the Company qualified as “well-capitalized” under the foregoing regulatory capital standards.  See Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Report.

Regulation of Embassy Bank for the Lehigh Valley

Embassy Bank for the Lehigh Valley is a Pennsylvania-chartered banking institution and is subject to regulation, supervision and regular examination by the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). Federal and state banking laws and regulations govern, among other things, the scope of a bank’s business, the investments a bank may make, the reserves against deposits a bank must maintain, the loans a bank makes and collateral it takes, the maximum interest rates a bank may pay on deposits, the activities of a bank with respect to mergers and consolidations, and the establishment of branches, and management practices and other aspects of banking operations.

Dividend Restrictions

The Company is a legal entity separate and distinct from the Bank. Declaration and payment of cash dividends depends upon cash dividend payments to the Company by the Bank, which is the Company’s primary source of revenue and cash flow. Accordingly, the right of the Company, and consequently the right of our creditors and shareholders, to participate in any distribution of the assets or earnings of any subsidiary is necessarily subject to the prior claims of creditors of the subsidiary, except to the extent that claims of the Company in its capacity as a creditor may be recognized.

As a Pennsylvania chartered bank, the Bank is subject to regulatory restrictions on the payment and amounts of dividends under the Pennsylvania Banking Code. Further, the ability of banking subsidiaries to pay dividends is also subject to their profitability, financial condition, capital expenditures and other cash flow requirements. See Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements included at Item 8 of this Report.

The payment of dividends by the Bank and the Company may also be affected by other factors, such as the requirement to maintain adequate capital above regulatory guidelines. The federal banking agencies have indicated that paying dividends that deplete a depository institution’s capital base to an inadequate level would be an unsafe and unsound banking practice. Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991, a depository institution may not pay any dividend if payment would cause it to become undercapitalized or if it already is undercapitalized. Moreover, the federal agencies have issued policy statements that provide that bank holding companies and insured banks should generally only pay dividends out of current operating earnings. Federal banking regulators have the authority to prohibit banks and bank holding companies from paying a dividend if the regulators deem such payment to be an unsafe or unsound practice.

Capital Adequacy and Operations

Enacted in 1991, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) contains provisions limiting activities and business methods of depository institutions. FDICIA required the primary federal banking regulators to promulgate regulations setting forth standards relating to, among other things, internal controls and audit systems; credit underwriting and loan documentation; interest rate exposure and other off-balance sheet assets and liabilities; and compensation of directors and officers. FDICIA also provided for expanded regulation of depository institutions and their affiliates, including parent holding companies, by such institutions’ primary federal banking regulator. Each primary federal banking regulator is required to specify, by regulation, capital standards for measuring the capital adequacy of the depository institutions it supervises and, depending upon the extent to which a depository institution does not meet such capital adequacy measures, the primary federal banking regulator may prohibit such institution from paying dividends or may require such institution to take other steps to become adequately capitalized.

FDICIA established five capital tiers, ranging from “well capitalized” to “critically under-capitalized”. A depository institution is well capitalized if it significantly exceeds the minimum level required by regulation for each relevant capital measure. Under FDICIA, an institution that is not well capitalized is generally prohibited from accepting brokered deposits and offering interest rates on deposits higher than the prevailing rate in its market; in addition, “pass through” insurance coverage may not be available for certain employee benefit accounts. FDICIA also requires an undercapitalized depository institution to submit an acceptable capital restoration plan to the appropriate federal bank regulatory agency. One requisite element of such a plan is that the institution’s parent holding company must

10

Embassy Bancorp, Inc.                                                                                                                          

guarantee compliance by the institution with the plan, subject to certain limitations. In the event of the parent holding company’s bankruptcy, the guarantee, and any other commitments that the parent holding company has made to federal bank regulators to maintain the capital of its depository institution subsidiaries, would be assumed by the bankruptcy trustee and entitled to priority in payment.

At December 31, 2012, the Bank qualified as “well capitalized” under these regulatory capital standards. See Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included at Item 8 of this Report.

Community Reinvestment Act

Under the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 (“CRA”), the FDIC is required to assess the record of all financial institutions regulated by it to determine if these institutions are meeting the credit needs of the community (including low and moderate income neighborhoods) which they serve. CRA performance evaluations are based on a four-tiered rating system: Outstanding, Satisfactory, Needs to Improve and Substantial Noncompliance. CRA performance evaluations are considered in evaluating applications for such things as mergers, acquisitions and applications to open branches. The Bank has a current CRA rating of “Satisfactory.”

Restrictions on Transactions with Affiliates and Insiders

The Bank also is subject to the restrictions of Sections 23A, 23B, 22(g) and 22(h) of the Federal Reserve Act and Regulation O adopted by the Federal Reserve Board. Section 23A requires that loans or extensions of credit to an affiliate, purchases of securities issued by an affiliate, purchases of assets from an affiliate (except as may be exempted by order or regulation), the acceptance of securities issued by an affiliate as collateral and the issuance of a guarantee or acceptance of letters of credit on behalf of an affiliate (collectively, “Covered Transactions”) be on terms and conditions consistent with safe and sound banking practices. Section 23A also imposes quantitative restrictions on the amount of and collateralization requirements on such transactions. Section 23B requires that all Covered Transactions and certain other transactions, including the sale of securities or other assets to an affiliate and the payment of money or the furnishing of services to an affiliate, be on terms comparable to those prevailing for similar transactions with non-affiliates.

Section 22(g) and 22(h) of the Federal Reserve Act impose similar limitations on loans and extensions of credit from the bank to its executive officers, directors and principal shareholders and any of their related interests. The limitations restrict the terms and aggregate amount of such transactions. Regulation O implements the provisions of Sections 22(g) and 22(h) and requires maintenance of records of such transactions by the bank and regular reporting of such transactions by insiders. The FDIC also requires the bank, upon request, to disclose publicly loans and extensions of credit to insiders in excess of certain amounts.

Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008

In response to the financial crises affecting the banking system and financial markets and going concern threats to investment banks and other financial institutions, on October 3, 2008, the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (the “EESA”) was signed into law.  Pursuant to the EESA, the U.S. Treasury announced a program, known as the Troubled Asset Relief (“TARP”) Capital Purchase Program, pursuant to which it would purchase equity stakes in a wide variety of financial institutions.  The Company decided not to participate in the TARP Capital Purchase Program.

Deposit Insurance and Premiums

The deposits of the Bank are insured up to applicable limits per insured depositor by the FDIC. In October 2008, the FDIC increased FDIC deposit insurance coverage per separately insured depositor for all account types to $250,000. While initially stipulated to be in effect through December 31, 2009, this increase has been subsequently extended permanently through the Dodd-Frank Act.

As a FDIC member institution, the Bank’s deposits are insured to a maximum of $250,000 per depositor through the Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”) that is administered by the FDIC and each institution is required to pay semi-annual deposit insurance premium assessments to the FDIC.

The Deposit Insurance Funds Act of 1996 recapitalized the Savings Association Insurance Fund (“SAIF”) and provided that DIF deposits would be subject to one-fifth of the assessment to which SAIF deposits are subject for FICO bond payments. Beginning in 2000, DIF deposits and SAIF deposits were subject to the same assessment for FICO bonds. The FICO assessment for the Bank for 2012 was $0.01 for each $100 of DIF deposits.

In February 2011, the FDIC adopted final rules to implement changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act with respect to the FDIC assessment rules.  In particular, the definition of an institution’s deposit insurance assessment base changed from total deposits to total assets less tangible equity.  In addition, the FDIC decreased deposit insurance assessment rates, effective April 1, 2011.  The new initial base assessment rates range from 5 to 9 basis points for Risk Category I banks to 35 basis points for risk category IV banks.  Risk Category II and III banks will have an initial base assessment rate of 14 or 23 basis points, respectively.  The Company expects that the new rates and assessment base will reduce the FDIC insurance assessment rate paid by the Bank.  However, if the risk category of the Bank changes adversely, FDIC insurance premiums paid by the Bank could increase.

Other Federal Laws and Regulations

State usury and credit laws limit the amount of interest and various other charges collected or contracted by a bank on loans. The Bank’s loans are also subject to federal laws applicable to credit transactions, such as the following:

· Federal Truth-In-Lending Act, which governs disclosures of credit terms to consumer borrowers;

· Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, requiring financial institutions to provide information to enable public officials to determine whether a financial institution is fulfilling its obligations to meet the housing needs of the community it serves;

· Equal Credit Opportunity Act prohibiting discrimination on the basis of race, creed or other prohibitive factors in extending credit;

· Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, which requires lenders to disclose certain information      regarding the nature and cost of real estate settlements, and prohibits certain lending practices, as well as limits escrow account amounts in real estate transactions;

· Fair Credit Reporting Act governing the manner in which consumer debts may be collected by collection agencies; and

· Various rules and regulations of various federal agencies charged with the implementation of such federal laws.

Additionally, the Company’s operations are subject to additional federal laws and regulations applicable to financial institutions, including, without limitation:

· Privacy provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and related regulations, which require the Company to maintain privacy policies intended to safeguard customer financial information, to disclose the policies to the Company’s customers and to allow customers to “opt out” of having their financial service providers disclose their confidential financial information to non-affiliated third parties, subject to certain exceptions;

· Right to Financial Privacy Act, which imposes a duty to maintain confidentiality of consumer financial records and prescribes procedures for complying with administrative subpoenas of financial records;

· Consumer protection rules for the sale of insurance products by depository institutions, adopted pursuant to the requirements of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act; and

· USA Patriot Act, which requires financial institutions to take certain actions to help prevent, detect and prosecute international money laundering and the financing of terrorism.

Effective July 1, 2010, a new federal banking rule under the Electronic Fund Transfer Act prohibited financial institutions from charging consumers fees for paying overdrafts on automated teller machines (“ATM”) and one-time debit card transactions, unless a consumer consents, or opts in, to the overdraft service for those type of transactions.

12

Embassy Bancorp, Inc.                                                                                                                          

If a consumer does not opt in, any ATM transaction or debit that overdraws the consumer’s account will be denied. Overdrafts on the payment of checks and regular electronic bill payments are not covered by this new rule. Before opting in, the consumer must be provided a notice that explains the financial institution’s overdraft services, including the fees associated with the service, and the consumer’s choices. Financial institutions must provide consumers who do not opt in with the same account terms, conditions and features (including pricing) that they provide to consumers who do opt in.  The Company did not charge customers for these transactions, nor provide these types of services.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002

Enacted in 2002, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act represented a comprehensive revision of laws affecting corporate governance, accounting obligations and corporate reporting.  The Sarbanes-Oxley Act is applicable to all companies with equity securities registered or that file reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including publicly held bank holding companies such as the Company. In particular, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act establishes: (i) requirements for audit committees, including independence, expertise, and responsibilities; (ii) additional responsibilities regarding financial statements for the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the reporting company; (iii) standards for auditors and regulation of audits; (iv) increased disclosure and reporting obligations for the reporting company and its directors and executive officers; and (v) new and increased civil and criminal penalties for violations of the securities laws. 

Basel III

In December 2010, the Basel Committee released its final framework for strengthening international capital and liquidity regulation, officially identified by the Basel Committee as “Basel III”. Basel III would require bank holding companies and their bank subsidiaries to maintain substantially more capital, with a greater emphasis on common equity.  Basel III increases the minimum Tier 1 common equity ratio to 4.5%, net of regulatory deductions, and introduces a capital conservation buffer of an additional 2.5% of common equity to risk-weighted assets, raising the target minimum common equity ratio to 7%. This capital conservation buffer also increases the minimum Tier 1 capital ratio from 6% to 8.5% and the minimum total capital ratio from 8% to 10.5%. In addition, Basel III would introduce a countercyclical capital buffer of up to 2.5% of common equity or other fully loss absorbing capital for periods of excess credit growth. Basel III would also introduce a non-risk adjusted Tier 1 leverage ratio of 3%, based on a measure of total exposure rather than total assets, and new liquidity standards.

On June 12, 2012, U.S. banking agencies issued three notices of proposed rulemaking (“NPRs”) that would revise the current capital rules to implement the requirements of the Dodd-Frank Act and Basel III, commencing January 1, 2013.  Two of the NPRs are applicable to the Company and the Bank.  The first, “Regulatory Capital Rules: Regulatory Capital, Implementation of Basel III, Minimum Regulatory Capital Ratios, Capital Adequacy, Transition Provisions and Prompt Corrective Action” applies to both the Company and the Bank.  If adopted, this NPR would increase the quantity and quality of capital required by providing for a new minimum common equity Tier 1 ratio of 4.5% of risk-weighted assets and a common equity Tier 1 capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets.  This first NPR would also revise the definition of capital to improve the ability of regulatory capital instruments to absorb losses and establish limitations on capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments if additional specified amounts, or “buffers,” of common equity Tier 1 capital are not met.  This NPR would also establish a more conservative standard for including an instrument such as trust preferred securities as Tier 1 capital for bank holding companies with total consolidated assets of $15 billion or more as of December 31, 2009, setting out a phase-out schedule for such instruments beginning in January 2013.

The second NPR, “Regulatory Capital Rules: Standardized Approach for Risk-Weighted Assets: Market Discipline and Disclosure Requirements,” would also apply to both the Company and the Bank.  This NPR would revise and harmonize the bank regulators’ rules for calculating risk-weighted assets to enhance risk sensitivity and address weaknesses that have been identified recently.

On November 9, 2012, the U.S. banking agencies announced that none of the three NPRs they issued in June 2012 would become effective on January 1, 2013.  The banking agencies have not announced new effective dates for the NPRs.

13

Embassy Bancorp, Inc.                                                                                                                          

Accordingly, the regulations ultimately applicable to the Company and the Bank may be substantially different from the Basel III framework and the NPRs. The requirement to maintain higher levels of capital or to maintain higher levels of liquid assets could adversely impact our financial results.

Governmental Policies

The Company’s earnings are significantly affected by the monetary and fiscal policies of governmental authorities, including the Federal Reserve Board. Among the instruments of monetary policy used by the Federal Reserve Board to implement these objectives are open-market operations in U.S. Government securities and federal funds, changes in the discount rate on member bank borrowings and changes in reserve requirements against member bank deposits. These instruments of monetary policy are used in varying combinations to influence the overall level of bank loans, investments and deposits, and the interest rates charged on loans and paid for deposits. The Federal Reserve Board frequently uses these instruments of monetary policy, especially its open-market operations and the discount rate, to influence the level of interest rates and to affect the strength of the economy, the level of inflation or the price of the dollar in foreign exchange markets. The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board have had a significant effect on the operating results of banking institutions in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future. It is not possible to predict the nature of future changes in monetary and fiscal policies, or the effect which they may have on the Company’s business and earnings.

Other Legislative Initiatives

Proposals may be introduced in the United States Congress and in the Pennsylvania Legislature and before various bank regulatory authorities which would alter the powers of, and restrictions on, different types of banking organizations and which would restructure part or all of the existing regulatory framework for banks, bank holding companies and other providers of financial services. Moreover, other bills may be introduced in Congress which would further regulate, deregulate or restructure the financial services industry, including proposals to substantially reform the regulatory framework. It is not possible to predict whether these or any other proposals will be enacted into law or, even if enacted, the effect which they may have on the Company’s business and earnings.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This discussion and analysis provides an overview of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report.

Critical Accounting Policies

Note 1 to the Company’s financial statements lists significant accounting policies used in the development and presentation of its financial statements. This discussion and analysis, the significant accounting policies, and other financial statement disclosures identify and address key variables and other qualitative and quantitative factors that are necessary for an understanding and evaluation of the Company and its results of operations.

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require the Company to make estimates and assumptions. The Company believes that its determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of deferred tax assets involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity than the Company’s other significant accounting policies. Further, these estimates can be materially impacted by changes in market conditions or the actual or perceived financial condition of the Company’s borrowers, subjecting the Company to significant volatility of earnings.

The allowance for loan losses is established through the provision for loan losses, which is a charge against earnings. Provision for loan losses is made to reserve for estimated probable losses on loans. The allowance for loan losses is a significant estimate and is regularly evaluated by the Company for adequacy by taking into consideration factors such as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, trends in actual and forecasted credit quality, including delinquency, charge-off and bankruptcy rates, and current economic conditions that may affect a borrower’s ability to pay. The use of different estimates of assumptions could produce different provision for loan losses. For additional discussion concerning the Company’s allowance for loan losses and related matters, see “Provision for Loan Losses” and “Allowance for Loan Losses.”

Real estate acquired through foreclosure, or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs at the date of acquisition or transfer, and subsequently at the lower of its new cost or fair value less estimated selling costs.  Adjustments to the carrying value at the date of acquisition or transfer are charged to the allowance for loan losses.  The carrying value of the individual properties is subsequently adjusted to the extent it exceeds estimated fair value less the estimated selling costs, at which time a provision for loan losses on such real estate is charged to operations.  Appraisals are critical in determining the value of properties.  Overly optimistic assumptions or negative changes to assumptions could significantly affect the valuation of a property.  The assumptions supporting such appraisals are carefully reviewed by management to determine that the resulting values reasonably reflect amounts realizable.

Deferred taxes are provided on the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and net operating loss carryforwards and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuations allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences.

GENERAL

The Company is a Pennsylvania corporation organized in 2008 and registered as a bank holding company pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act). The Company was formed for purposes of acquiring Embassy Bank For The Lehigh Valley (the “Bank”) in connection with the reorganization of the Bank into a bank holding company structure, which was consummated on November 11, 2008. Accordingly, the Company owns

17

Embassy Bancorp, Inc.                                                                                                                          

all of the capital stock of the Bank, giving the organization more flexibility in meeting its capital needs as the Company continues to grow.

The Bank, which is the Company’s primary operating subsidiary, was originally incorporated as a Pennsylvania bank on May 11, 2001 and opened its doors on November 6, 2001. It was formed by a group of local business persons and professionals with significant prior experience in community banking in the Lehigh Valley area of Pennsylvania, the Bank’s primary market area.

OVERVIEW

The Company’s assets grew $67.5 million from $575.5 million at December 31, 2011 to $643.0 million at December 31, 2012. The Company’s deposits grew $71.2 million from $481.8 million at December 31, 2011 to $553.0 million at December 31, 2012. During the same period, loans receivable, net of the allowance for loan losses, increased $81.0 million to $500.1 million at December 31, 2012 from $419.1 million at December 31, 2011. The market is very competitive and the Company is committed to maintaining a high quality portfolio that returns a reasonable market rate. The Company expects increased lending activity, as the Company expands its presence in the market and continues to become more widely known.  The past and current economic conditions have created lower demand for loans by credit-worthy customers.  The lending staff has been active in contacting new prospects and promoting the Company’s name in the community. Management believes that this will translate into continued growth of a portfolio of quality loans, although there can be no assurance of this.

The Company reported net income of $5.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to net income of $5.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $0.6 million or 11.8%.  Diluted earnings per share increased to $0.80 in 2012 from $0.71 in 2011.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income is the difference between income on assets and the cost of funds supporting those assets. Earning assets are composed primarily of loans and investments. Interest-bearing deposits and borrowings make up the cost of funds. Non-interest bearing deposits and capital are other components representing funding sources. Changes in the volume and mix of assets and funding sources, along with the changes in yields earned and rates paid, determine changes in net interest income.

2012 Compared to 2011

Total interest income for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $24.5 million compared to $23.7 for the year ended December 31, 2011. Total interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $4.1 million compared to $5.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in interest income is due to the growth in loan balances, offset by lower yields in this interest rate environment.  The decrease in interest expense is due to the lower interest rate environment, as well as a shift in deposits from certificates of deposit to savings accounts.  Net interest income increased 9.1%  to $20.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to $18.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Generally, changes in net interest income are measured by net interest rate spread and net interest margin. Interest rate spread is the mathematical difference between the average interest earned on earning assets and interest paid on interest bearing liabilities. Interest margin represents the net interest yield on earning assets and is derived by dividing net interest income by average earning assets. In a mature financial institution the interest margin gives a reader a better indication of asset earning results when compared to peer groups or industry standards.

The Company’s net interest margin for the year ended December 31, 2012 was 3.35% compared to 3.63% for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in the margin is due primarily to the reduced loan, deposit and investment yields associated with current market conditions; coupled with the significant growth in the loan and interest bearing

deposit balances.During this difficult market environment, the Company continued to grow and attract deposits and loans at competitive rates.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses represents the expense recognized to fund the allowance for loan losses. This amount is based on many factors that reflect management’s assessment of the risk in its loan portfolio. Those factors include economic conditions and trends, the value and adequacy of collateral, volume and mix of the portfolio, performance of the portfolio, and internal loan processes of the Company.

For the year ended December 31, 2012, the provision for loan losses was $1.2million compared to $734thousand for the year ended December 31, 2011.  The increase in the provision for loan losses was primarily due to the volume of loan growth in 2012 over 2011.  Loans grew $82.3 million in 2012 compared to $35.7 million in 2011.  The allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2012 was $5.1 million, which represents 1.02% of outstanding loans, which is comparable to the prior year-end of $4.2 million representing 1.00% of outstanding loans. Based principally on current economic conditions, perceived asset quality, loan-loss experience of comparable institutions in the Company’s market area, the allowance is believed to be adequate.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income is derived from the Company’s operations and represents primarily credit card processing fees, service fees on deposit and loan relationships and income from bank owned life insurance. Non-interest income also

20

Embassy Bancorp, Inc.                                                                                                                          

may include net gains and losses from the sale of available for sale securities. Total non-interest income was $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to $1.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011.   This increase in non-interest income is due to a gain from sales of securities in 2012 of $1.2 million compared to $487 thousand in 2011.  In 2012, the Company derived increased service fees in the amount of $76 thousand or 18.9% over 2011 due to the increase in the number of deposit accounts.  There was also an increase in fees from merchant credit card processing services in the amount of $178 thousand or 18.4% over 2011. As the deposit customer account base grows and the Company matures and develops additional sources of fee income, non-interest income is expected to become a more significant contributor to the overall profitability of the Company.

Non-interest Expense

Non-interest expenses represent the normal operating expenses of the Company. These expenses include salaries, employee benefits, occupancy, equipment, data processing, advertising and other expenses related to the overall operation of the Company.

Non-interest expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $13.7 million, compared to $12.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2011.  At December 31, 2012, the Company had seventy full-time equivalent employees compared to sixty-seven full-time equivalent employees at December 31, 2011. Data processing costs increased $177 thousand or 18% due to increased volume of accounts and enhanced network support services. Professional fees increased $104 thousand or 25% due to increased costs of third party auditing, regulatory and consulting services. Credit card processingexpense increased $108 thousand or 12% due to increased volume.  Charitable contributions increased $116 thousand or 45% due to an increase in contributions related to Pennsylvania Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) program.  This increase was offset by a decrease in the Pennsylvania bank shares tax expenses.  Other real estate owned expenses increased $46 thousand or 64% due to the costs related to the addition of two new bank-owned properties.

A breakdown of other non-interest expenses is included in the Consolidated Statements of Income in the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Report.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes was $2.2 million at December 31, 2012 compared to $2.1 million at December 31, 2011.  The effective rate on income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 was 27.9% and 28.8% respectively.  The decrease in the effective rate for 2012 to 2011 was due to changes in the mix of taxable and tax-free balances, as well as market effect on interest rates.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Securities

The Company’s securities portfolio is classified, in its entirety, as “available for sale.”  Management believes that a portfolio classification of available for sale allows complete flexibility in the investment portfolio. Using this classification, the Company intends to hold these securities for an indefinite amount of time, but not necessarily to maturity. Such securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The portfolio is structured to provide maximum return on investments while providing a consistent source of liquidity and meeting strict risk standards. The Company holds no high-risk securities or derivatives as of December 31, 2012.  

The Company’s securities portfolio was $91.9 million at December 31, 2012, a $253thousand decrease from securities of $92.1 million at December 31, 2011.  The Company’s securities have decreased primarily due to a combination of investment principal pay-downs, maturities and sales totaling $26.7 million, offset by purchases in the amount of $25.8 million and a $161 thousand decrease in unrealized gains. The carrying value of the securities portfolio as of December 31, 2012 includes a net unrealized gain of $3.5 million as compared to a net unrealized gain of $3.6million as of December 31, 2011, which is recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income in

21

Embassy Bancorp, Inc.                                                                                                                          

stockholders’ equity. This decrease in the unrealized gain is due primarily to the changes in market conditions from 2011 to 2012.  No securities are deemed to be other than temporarily impaired. 

The following table sets forth the composition of the securities portfolio at fair value as of December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010.

Credit Risk and Loan Quality

The allowance for loan losses increased $932 thousand to $5.1 million at December 31, 2012 from $4.2 million at December 31, 2011. At December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the allowance for loan losses represented 1.02% and 1.00%, respectively, of total loans. Based upon current economic conditions, the composition of the loan portfolio, the perceived credit risk in the portfolio and loan-loss experience of comparable institutions in the Bank’s market area, management feels the allowance is adequate to absorb reasonably anticipated losses.

At December 31, 2012, aggregate balances on non-performing loans equaled $10.6 million compared to $9.4 million at December 31, 2011, representing 2.11% and 2.22% of total loans at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. In certain circumstances in which the Company has deemed it prudent for reasons related to a borrower’s financial condition, the Company has agreed to restructure certain loans (referred to as troubled debt restructurings).  Troubled debt restructurings are considered non-performing loans. Generally, a loan is classified as nonaccrual when it is determined that the collection of all or a portion of interest or principal is doubtful or when a default of interest or principal has existed for 90 days or more, unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection.  A non-performing loan may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured.

Allowance for Loan Losses

Based upon current economic conditions, the composition of the loan portfolio and loan loss experience of comparable institutions in the Company’s market areas, an allowance for loan losses has been provided at 1.02% of outstanding loans. Based on its knowledge of the portfolio and current economic conditions, management believes that, as of December 31, 2012, the allowance is adequate to absorb reasonably anticipated losses. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had $12.7 million of impaired loans compared to $13.4 million at December 31, 2011.  Most of the Company’s impaired loans required no specific reserves due to adequate collateral.  As of December 31, 2012, the Company had impaired loans of $3.9 million requiring a specific reserve of $750 thousand.  As of December 31, 2011, the Company had impaired loans of $725 thousand requiring a specific reserve of $126 thousand.

Deposits

As growth continues, the Company expects that the principal sources of its funds will be deposits, consisting of demand deposits, NOW accounts, money market accounts, savings accounts, and certificates of deposit from the local market areas surrounding the Company’s offices. These accounts provide the Company with a source of fee income and a relatively stable source of funds.

Total deposits at December 31, 2012 were $553.0 million, an increase of $71 million, or 14.8%, over total deposits of $481.8 million as of December 31, 2011.  The following table reflects the Company’s deposits by category for the periods indicated. All deposits are domestic deposits.

As a FDIC member institution, the Company’s deposits are insured to a maximum of $250,000 per depositor through the Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”) that is administered by the FDIC and each institution is required to pay semi-annual deposit insurance premium assessments to the FDIC.

Liquidity

Liquidity is a measure of the Company’s ability to meet the demands required for the funding of loans and to meet depositors’ requirements for use of their funds. The Company’s sources of liquidity are cash balances, due from banks, Federal funds sold and short-term securities. There are other sources of liquidity that are available to the Company.

The Bank has borrowing capacity with the FHLB of Pittsburgh of approximately $239.2 million, of which $7.9 million was outstanding at December 31, 2012, all of which is long term. This borrowing capacity with the FHLB includes a line of credit of $25.0 million.  The Bank also has a $6.0 million line of credit with Atlantic Central Bankers Bank, of which none was outstanding at December 31, 2012. Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank line are secured by qualifying assets of the Bank and advances from the Atlantic Central Bankers Bank line are unsecured. The Company has two lines of credit with Univest Bank and Trust Co., totaling $10.0 million, of which $4.7 million was outstanding at December 31, 2012. These lines of credit are secured by 833,333 shares of Bank stock.

Because of the composition of the Company’s balance sheet, its strong capital base, deposit growth, and borrowing capacity, the Company believes that it remains well positioned with respect to liquidity. While it is desirable to be liquid, it has the effect of a lower interest margin. The majority of funds are invested in loans; however, a sizeable portion is invested in investment securities that generally carry a lower yield.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company’s financial statements do not reflect various off-balance sheet arrangements that are made in the normal course of business, which may involve some liquidity risk. These commitments consist of unfunded loans and lines of credit and letters of credit made under the same standards as on-balance sheet instruments. These off-balance sheet arrangements at December 31, 2012 totaled $96.3 million. Because these instruments have fixed maturity dates, and because many of them will expire without being drawn upon, they do not generally present any significant liquidity risk to the Company.

Management believes that any amounts actually drawn upon can be funded in the normal course of operations. 

The Company has no investment in or financial relationship with any unconsolidated entities that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on liquidity or the availability of capital resources.

Capital Resources and Adequacy

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by banking regulators. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain actions by regulators that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

The regulations require that banks maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk weighted assets (as defined), and Tier 1 capital to average assets (as defined). As of December 31, 2012, the Bank met the minimum requirements. In addition, the Bank’s capital ratios exceeded the amounts required to be considered “well capitalized” as defined in the regulations.

The following table provides a comparison of the Bank’s risk-based capital ratios and leverage ratios:

	December 31,		December 31,
	2012		2011
	(Dollars In Thousands)
Tier 1, common stockholders' equity	$	52,046	$	46,648

Tier 1 leverage ratio		8.0%		8.3%

Note: Unrealized gains on securities available for sale are excluded from regulatory capital components of risk-based capital and leverage ratios.

The Federal banking regulators have adopted risk-based capital guidelines for bank holding companies. Currently, the required minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets (including off-balance sheet activities, such as standby letters of credit) is 8% (10% in order to be considered “well-capitalized”). At least 4% of the total capital (6% to be well-capitalized) is required to be Tier 1 capital, consisting principally of common shareholders’ equity, related surplus, retained earnings, qualifying perpetual preferred stock, and minority interests in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less goodwill and certain other intangibles. The remainder (Tier 2 capital) may consist of a limited amount of subordinated debt, certain hybrid capital instruments and other debt securities, qualifying preferred stock and a limited amount of the general loan loss allowance.

In addition to the risk-based capital guidelines, the federal banking regulators established minimum leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to total assets) guidelines for bank holding companies. These guidelines provide for a minimum leverage ratio of 3% for those bank holding companies which have the highest regulatory examination ratings and are not contemplating or experiencing significant growth or expansion. All other bank holding companies are required to maintain a leverage ratio of at least 4%.

Interest Rate Risk Management

A principal objective of the Company’s asset/liability management policy is to minimize the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates by an ongoing review of the maturity and repricing of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The Asset Liability Committee (ALCO Committee), which meets as part of the Board of Directors meeting, oversees this review, which establishes policies to control interest rate sensitivity. Interest rate sensitivity is the volatility of a company’s earnings resulting from a movement in market interest rates. The Company monitors rate sensitivity in order to reduce vulnerability to interest rate fluctuations while maintaining adequate capital levels and acceptable levels of liquidity. The Company’s asset/liability management policy, along with monthly financial reports, supplies management with guidelines to evaluate and manage rate sensitivity.

GAP, a measure of the difference in volume between interest bearing assets and interest bearing liabilities, is a means of monitoring the sensitivity of a financial institution to changes in interest rates. The chart below provides an indicator of the rate sensitivity of the Company. NOW and savings accounts are categorized by their respective estimated decay rates. The Company is liability sensitive, which means that if interest rates fall, interest income will fall slower than interest expense and net interest income will likely increase. If interest rates rise, interest income will rise slower than interest expense and net interest income will likely decrease.

For income simulation purposes, NOW and savings accounts are repriced quarterly. The impact on net interest income, illustrated in the following table would vary substantially if different assumptions were used or if actual experience differs from that indicated by the assumptions.

Return on Assets and Equity

The return on average assets for 2012 was 0.91%; the return on average equity for the same period was 12.91%; and the ratio of average shareholders’ equity to average total assets was 7.08%.

The return on average assets for 2011 was 0.96%; the return on average equity for the same period was 12.02%; and the ratio of average shareholders’ equity to average total assets was 7.99 %.

Effects of Inflation

The majority of assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary in nature, and therefore, differ greatly from most commercial and industrial companies that have significant investments in fixed assets or inventories. The precise impact of inflation upon the Company is difficult to measure. Inflation may affect the borrowing needs of consumers, thereby impacting the growth rate of the Company’s assets. Inflation may also affect the general level of interest rates, which can have a direct bearing on the Company.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Embassy Bancorp, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Embassy Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiary, Embassy Bank for the Lehigh Valley (collectively the “Company”), as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation and Nature of Operations

Embassy Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Pennsylvania corporation organized in 2008 and registered as a bank holding company pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act”). The Company was formed for purposes of acquiring Embassy Bank ForThe Lehigh Valley (the “Bank”) in connection with the reorganization of the Bank into a bank holding company structure, which was consummated on November 11, 2008. Accordingly, the Company owns all of the capital stock of the Bank, giving the organization more flexibility in meeting its capital needs as the Company continues to grow.

The Bank, which is the Company’s principal operating subsidiary, was originally incorporated as a Pennsylvania bank on May 11, 2001 and opened its doors on November 6, 2001. It was formed by a group of local business persons and professionals with significant prior experience in community banking in the Lehigh Valley area of Pennsylvania, the Bank’s primary market area.

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of other real estate owned, and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Most of the Company’s activities are with customers located in the Lehigh Valley area of Pennsylvania. Note 2 discuss the types of securities in which the Company invests. The concentrations of credit by type of loan are set forth in Note 3. The Company does not have any significant concentrations to any one specific industry or customer, with the exception of lending activity to a broad range of lessors of residential and non-residential real estate within the Lehigh Valley. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, its debtors’ ability to honor their contracts is influenced by the region’s economy.

Presentation of Cash Flows

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, interest-bearing demand deposits with bank, and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are purchased or sold for less than one week periods.

Securities

Securities classified as available for sale are those securities that the Company intends to hold for an indefinite period of time, but not necessarily to maturity. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value. Any decision to sell a security classified as available for sale would be based on various factors, including significant movement in interest rates, changes in maturity mix of the Company’s assets and liabilities, liquidity needs, regulatory capital considerations and other similar factors. Unrealized gains and losses are reported as increases or decreases in other comprehensive income. Realized gains or losses, determined on the basis of the cost of the specific securities sold, are included in earnings. Premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Other than temporary accounting guidance specifies that (a) if a company does not have the intent to sell a debt security prior to recovery and (b) it is more likely than not that it will not have to sell the debt security prior to recovery, the security would not be considered other-than-temporarily impaired unless there is a credit loss. When an entity does not intend to sell the security, and it is more likely than not the entity will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis, it will recognize the credit component of an other-than-temporary impairment of a debt security in earnings and the remaining portion in other comprehensive income. The Company recognized no other-than-temporary impairment charges during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

Restricted Investments in Bank Stock

Restricted investments in bank stock consist of Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”) stock and Atlantic Central Bankers Bank (“ACBB”) stock.  The restricted stocks are carried at cost.  Federal law requires a member institution of the FHLB to hold stock of its district FHLB according to a predetermined formula.

In December 2008, the FHLB of Pittsburgh notified member banks that it was suspending dividend payments and the repurchase of capital stock, and any future capital stock repurchases will be made on a quarterly basis if conditions warrant such repurchases.  During 2012, 2011 and 2010, the FHLB conducted limited excess capital stock repurchases based upon positive quarterly net income.  Any future capital stock repurchases will be made on a quarterly basis if conditions warrant such repurchases. In February 2012, the FHLB announced that dividend payments would resume in 2012 and $2 thousand in dividend payments were received.

Management evaluates the FHLB and ACBB restricted stock for impairment. Management’s determination of whether these investments are impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of their cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the issuer as compared to the capital stock amount for the issuer and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the issuer to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the issuer, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the issuer.

Management believes no impairment charge is necessary related to the FHLB or ACBB restricted stock as of December 31, 2012.

Loans Receivable

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of any deferred fees or costs. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the yield using the effective interest method.  Premiums and discounts on purchased loans are amortized as adjustments to interest income using the effective interest method.  Delinquency fees are recognized in income when chargeable, assuming collectability is reasonably assured.

The loans receivable portfolio is segmented into commercial and consumer loans.  Commercial loans consist of the following classes: commercial real estate, commercial construction and commercial.  Consumer loans consist of the following classes: residential real estate and other consumer loans.

The Company makes commercial loans for real estate development and other business purposes required by the customer base.  The Company’s credit policies determine advance rates against the different forms of collateral that can be pledged against commercial loans.  Typically, the majority of loans will be limited to a percentage of their underlying collateral values such as real estate values, equipment, eligible accounts receivable and inventory.  Individual loan advance rates may be higher or lower depending upon the financial strength of the borrower and/or term of the loan.  The assets financed through commercial loans are used within the business for its ongoing operation.  Repayment of these kinds of loans generally comes from the cash flow of the business or the ongoing conversion of assets.  Commercial real estate loans include long-term loans financing commercial properties.  Repayments of these loans are dependent upon either the ongoing cash flow of the borrowing entity or the resale of or lease of the subject property.  Commercial real estate loans typically require a loan to value of not greater than 80% and vary in terms.

Residential mortgages and home equity loans are secured by the borrower’s residential real estate in either a first or second lien position.  Residential mortgages and home equity loans have varying loan rates depending on the financial condition of the borrower and the loan to value ratio.  Residential mortgages may have amortizations up to 30 years and home equity loans may have maturities up to 25 years.  Other consumer loans include installment loans, car loans, and overdraft lines of credit.  The majority of these loans are unsecured.

For all classes of loans receivable, the accrual of interest may be discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan is currently performing.  A loan may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured.  When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest credited to income in the current year is reversed.  Interest received on nonaccrual loans, including impaired loans, generally is applied against principal.  Generally, loans are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time (generally six months) and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt.  The past due status of all classes of loans receivable is determined based on contractual due dates for loan payments.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The reserve for unfunded loan commitments represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in its unfunded loan commitments and is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.  The allowance for loan losses is increased by the provision for loan losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans, or portions of loans, determined to be confirmed losses are charged against the allowance account and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the account. A loss is considered confirmed when information available at the financial statement date indicates the loan, or a portion thereof, is uncollectible.

Management performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance.  The allowance is based on the Company’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Management maintains the allowance for loan losses at a level it believes adequate to absorb probable credit losses related to specifically identified loans, as well as probable incurred losses inherent in the remainder of the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet dates. The allowance for loan losses account consists of specific and general reserves. The specific component consists of the specific reserve for impaired loans individually evaluated under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 310, “Receivables,” and the general component is utilized for loss contingencies on those loans collectively evaluated under FASB ASC 450, “Contingencies.”

For the specific portion of the allowance for loan losses, a loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. All amounts due according to the contractual terms means that both the contractual interest and principal payments of a loan will be collected as scheduled in the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, ability to pay and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Loans considered impaired under FASB ASC 310 are measured for impairment based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. If the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral, if the loan is collateral dependent, is less than the recorded investment in the loan, including accrued interest and net deferred loan fees or costs, the Company will recognize the impairment by adjusting the allowance for loan losses account through charges to earnings as a provision for loan losses.

For loans secured by real estate, estimated fair values are determined primarily through third-party appraisals.  When a real estate secured loan becomes impaired, a decision is made regarding whether an updated certified appraisal of the real estate is necessary.  This decision is based on various considerations, including the age of the most recent appraisal, loan-to-value ratio based on the original appraisal and the condition of the property.  Appraised values are discounted to arrive at the estimated selling price of the collateral, which is considered to be the estimated fair value.  The discounts also include estimated costs to sell the property.

For commercial and industrial loans secured by non-real estate collateral, such as accounts receivable, inventory and equipment, estimated fair values are determined based on the borrower’s financial statements, inventory reports, accounts receivable aging or equipment appraisals or invoices. Indications of value from these sources are generally discounted based on the age of the financial information or the quality of the assets.

The general portion of the allowance for loan losses covers pools of loans by major loan class including commercial loans not considered impaired, as well as smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as residential real estate and other consumer loans. Loss contingencies for each of the major loan pools are determined by applying a total loss factor to the current balance outstanding for each individual pool. The total loss factor is comprised of a historical loss factor using the loss migration method plus a qualitative factor, which adjusts the historical loss factor for changes in trends, conditions and other relevant factors that may affect repayment of the loans in these pools as of the evaluation date. Loss migration involves determining the percentage of each pool that is expected to ultimately result in loss based on historical loss experience. Historical loss factors are based on the ratio of net loans charged-off to loans, net, for each of the major groups of loans evaluated and measured for impairment under FASB ASC 450. The historical loss factor for each pool is an average of the Company’s historical net charge-off ratio for the most recent rolling twenty quarters.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

In addition to these historical loss factors, management also uses a qualitative factor that represents a number of environmental risks that may cause estimated credit losses associated with the current portfolio to differ from historical loss experience. These environmental risks include: (i) changes in lending policies and procedures including underwriting standards and collection, charge-off and recovery practices; (ii) changes in the composition and volume of the portfolio; (iii) changes in national, local and industry conditions, including the effects of such changes on the value of underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans; (iv) changes in the volume and severity of classified loans, including past due, nonaccrual, troubled debt restructures and other loan modifications; (v) changes in the levels of, and trends in, charge-offs and recoveries; (vi) the existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations; (vii) changes in the experience, ability and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; (viii) changes in the quality of the loan review system and the degree of oversight by the board of directors; and (ix) the effect of external factors such as competition and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated credit losses in the current loan portfolio. Each environmental risk factor is assigned a value to reflect improving, stable or declining conditions based on management’s best judgment using relevant information available at the time of the evaluation. Adjustments to the factors are supported through documentation of changes in conditions in a narrative accompanying the allowance for loan loss calculation.

The unallocated component of the general allowance is used to cover inherent losses that exist as of the evaluation date, but which have not been identified as part of the allocated allowance using the above impairment evaluation methodology due to limitations in the process. One such limitation is the imprecision of accurately estimating the impact current economic conditions will have on historical loss rates. Variations in the magnitude of impact may cause estimated credit losses associated with the current portfolio to differ from historical loss experience, resulting in an allowance that is higher or lower than the anticipated level.

The allowance calculation methodology includes further segregation of loan classes into risk rating categories.  The borrower’s overall financial condition, repayment sources, guarantors and value of collateral, if appropriate, are evaluated annually for commercial loans or when credit deficiencies arise, such as delinquent loan payment, for commercial and consumer loans.  Credit quality risk ratings include regulatory classifications of special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss.  Loans criticized as special mention have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention.  If uncorrected, the potential weakness may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects.  Loans classified substandard have a well-defined weakness and borrowers are highly leveraged.  They include loans that are inadequately protected by the current sound net worth and the paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any.  Loans classified doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified substandard with the added characteristic that collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of current conditions and facts, is highly improbable.  Loans classified as a loss are considered uncollectible and are charged to the allowance for loan losses.  Loans not classified are rated pass.

Federal regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses and may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination, which may not be currently available to management. Based on management’s comprehensive analysis of the loan portfolio, management believes the current level of the allowance for loan losses is adequate.

Other Real Estate Owned

Other real estate owned is comprised of properties acquired through foreclosure proceedings or acceptance of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure and loans classified as in-substance foreclosures.  A loan is classified as an in-substance foreclosure when the Company has taken possession of the collateral, regardless of whether formal foreclosure proceedings take place. Other real estate owned is recorded at fair value less cost to sell at the time of acquisition. Any excess of the loan balance over the recorded value is charged to the allowance for loan losses. After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed and the assets are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less cost to sell.  Changes in the valuation allowance on foreclosed assets are included in other income.  Costs to maintain the assets are included in other expenses. Any gain or loss realized upon disposal of other real estate owned is included in other income.

Bank Owned Life Insurance

The Company invests in bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) as a source of funding for employee benefit expenses.  BOLI involves the purchasing of life insurance by the Company on certain of its employees.  The Company is the owner and beneficiary of the policies.  This life insurance investment is carried at the cash surrender value of the underlying policies.  Income from increases in cash surrender value of the policies is included in non-interest income.

Premises and Equipment

Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the related assets: furniture, fixtures and equipment for five to ten years, leasehold improvements for ten to fifteen years, computer equipment and data processing software for three to five years, and automobiles for five years.

Transfers of Financial Assets

Transfers of financial assets, including sales of loan participations, are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.

Advertising Costs

The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising to expense as incurred.

Income Taxes

Income tax accounting guidance results in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred.  Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to taxable income.  Deferred income taxes are provided on the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences.  Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and net operating loss carry forwards and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share represents income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, as adjusted for stock dividends and splits. Diluted earnings per share reflect additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustments to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate solely to outstanding stock options and are determined using the treasury stock method.

	2012		2011
	(Dollars In Thousands, Except Per Share Data)
Net income	$	5,743	$	5,144
Weighted average shares outstanding		7,195,353		7,164,565
Dilutive effect of potential common
shares, stock options		21,331		41,288
Diluted weighted average common
shares outstanding		7,216,684		7,205,853
Basic earnings per share	$	0.80	$	0.72
Diluted earnings per share	$	0.80	$	0.71

Stock options of 127,942 and 72,139 were not considered in computing diluted earnings per common share for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, because they are not dilutive to earnings.

Employee Benefit Plan

The Company has a 401(k) Plan (the “Plan”) for employees. All employees are eligible to participate after they have attained the age of 21 and have also completed 12 consecutive months of service during which at least 1,000 hours of service are completed. The employees may contribute up to the maximum percentage allowable by law of their compensation to the Plan, and the Company provides a match of fifty percent of the first 8% percent to eligible participating employees. Full vesting in the Plan is prorated equally over a four-year period. The Company’s contributions to the Plan for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were $96 thousand and $97 thousand, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments

In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into off-balance sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the balance sheet when they are funded.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Comprehensive Income

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income. In accordance with new Financial Accounting Standards Board guidance, the Company has disclosed the components of comprehensive income in the accompanying statements of comprehensive income.

Segment Reporting

The Company acts as an independent, community, financial services provider, and offers traditional banking and related financial services to individual, business and government customers. The Company offers a full array of commercial and retail financial services, including the taking of time, savings and demand deposits; the making of commercial, consumer and home equity loans; and the provision of other financial services.

Management does not separately allocate expenses, including the cost of funding loan demand, between the commercial and retail operations of the Company. As such, discrete financial information is not available and segment reporting would not be meaningful.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company applies the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. ASC 718 requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award based on the fair value of the award.  The Black-Scholes model is used to estimate the fair value of stock options.

Subsequent Events

The Company follows ASC Topic 855 Subsequent Events.  This topic establishes general standards for accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued.  The Company has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the balance sheet date of December 31, 2012 through the date these financial statements were available for issuance for items that should potentially be recognized or disclosed in these financial statements.

New Accounting Standards

ASU 2013-02(Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) – Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income):

The objective of this ASU is to improve the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income.  This ASU requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income, by component, on the respective line items in the income statement if the amount being reclassified is required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to be reclassified in its entirety to net income.  Reclassifications that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period are required to be cross referenced to other U.S. GAAP disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts.  This is the case when a portion of the amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified to a balance sheet account rather than directly to income or expense in the same reporting period.  For example, some portion of net periodic pension cost is immediately reported in net income, but other portions may be capitalized to an asset balance such as fixed assets or inventory.  An entity with significant defined benefit pension costs reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income but not to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period should identify the amount of each pension cost component reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income and make reference to the relevant pension cost disclosure that provides greater detail about these reclassifications.

The amendments do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements.  However, the amendments require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component.  In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income.

The provisions of this ASU are effective for public entities prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012.  The Company does not expect this ASU to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2011-04 (Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs):

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. This update amends FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, to bring U.S. GAAP for fair value measurements in line with International Accounting Standards. The Update clarifies existing guidance for items such as: the application of the highest and best use concept to non-financial assets and liabilities; the application of fair value measurement to financial instruments classified in a reporting entity’s stockholder’s equity; and disclosure requirements regarding quantitative information about unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements of level 3 assets. The Update also creates an exception to Topic 820 for entities which carry financial instruments within a portfolio or group, under which the entity is now permitted to base the price used for fair valuation upon a price that would be received to sell the net asset position or transfer a net liability position in an orderly transaction. The Update also allows for the application of premiums and discounts in a fair value measurement if the financial instrument is categorized in level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Lastly, the ASU contains new disclosure requirements regarding fair value amounts categorized as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy such as: disclosure of the valuation process used; effects of and relationships between unobservable inputs; usage of nonfinancial assets for purposes other than their highest and best use when that is the basis of the disclosed fair value; and categorization by level of items disclosed at fair value, but not measured at fair value for financial statement purposes. For public entities, this Update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption was not permitted.  The Company adopted this update on January 1, 2012 and the new disclosures are included in Note 16.

ASU 2011-05 (Comprehensive Income: Presentation of Comprehensive Income):

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income.  The provisions of this update amend FASB ASC Topic 220, Comprehensive Income, to facilitate the continued alignment of U.S. GAAP with International Accounting Standards. The Update prohibits the presentation of the components of comprehensive income in the statement of stockholder’s equity. Reporting entities are allowed to present either: a statement of comprehensive income, which reports both net income and other comprehensive income; or separate statements of net income and other comprehensive income. Under previous GAAP, all 3 presentations were acceptable. Regardless of the presentation selected, the Reporting Entity is required to present all reclassifications between other comprehensive and net income on the face of the new statement or statements. The provisions of this Update were effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2011 for public entities.  The Company adopted this update on January 1, 2012, and the new Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income are included in these financial statements.

Reclassification

Certain amounts in the 2011 financial statements may have been reclassified to conform to 2012 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on 2011 net income.

The Company had ten (10) securities in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2012.  Unrealized losses are due only to market rate fluctuations. As of December 31, 2012, the Company either has the intent and ability to hold the securities until maturity or market price recovery, or believes that it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell such securities. Management believes that the unrealized loss only represents temporary impairment of the securities.  None of the individual losses are significant.

Securities with a carrying value of $45.8 million and $47.7 million at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, were subject to agreements to repurchase, pledged to secure public deposits, or pledged for other purposes required or permitted by law.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

The Company may grant a concession or modification for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial condition than it would not otherwise consider, resulting in a modified loan which is then identified as troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”).  The Company may modify loans through rate reductions, extensions to maturity, interest only payments, or payment modifications to better coincide the timing of payments due under the modified terms with the expected timing of cash flows from the borrowers’ operations.  Loan modifications are intended to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral.  TDRs are considered impaired loans for purposes of calculating the Company’s allowance for loan losses.

The Company identifies loans for potential restructure primarily through direct communication with the borrower and the evaluation of the borrower’s financial statements, revenue projections, tax returns, and credit reports.  Even if the borrower is not presently in default, management will consider the likelihood that cash flow shortages, adverse economic conditions, and negative trends may result in a payment default in the near future.

Note 11 - Stock Option and Stock Incentive Plans

Stock Option Plan:

In connection with the reorganization of the Bank into a holding company structure, the Company assumed the Bank’s 2001 Stock Option Plan which was renamed the Embassy Bancorp, Inc. Option Plan (the “Plan”). The plan expired on May 10, 2011, and no new options may be granted under this plan.  The Plan authorized the Board of Directors to grant options to officers, other employees and directors of the Company.  The options granted under the Plan to directors were non-qualified options. The options granted under the Plan to officers and other employees were generally intended to be “incentive stock options,” and are subject to the limitations under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. Shares issued upon exercise of options under the Plan may be funded from authorized but unissued shares of the Company or shares purchased in the open market. All options granted under the Plan were subject to vesting requirements of not less than three years and the term shall not exceed ten years. The exercise price of the options granted was intended to reflect the fair market value of a share of common stock at the time of the grant.

Stock Incentive Plan:

At the Company’s annual meeting on June 16, 2010, the shareholders approved the Embassy Bancorp, Inc. 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the “SIP”).  The SIP authorizes the Board of Directors, or a committee authorized by the Board of Directors, to award a stock based incentive to (i) designated officers (including officers who are directors) and other designated employees at the Company and its subsidiaries, and (ii) non-employee members of the Board of Directors and advisors and consultants to the Company and its subsidiaries.  The SIP provides for stock based incentives in the form of incentive stock options as provided in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and deferred stock awards.  The term of the option, the amount of time for the option to vest after grant, if any, and other terms and limitations will be determined at the time of grant. Options granted under the SIP may not have an exercise period that is more than ten years from the time the option is granted.

At inception, the aggregate number of shares available for issuance under the SIP was 500,000.  The SIP provides for appropriate adjustments in the number and kind of shares available for grant or subject to outstanding awards under the SIP to avoid dilution in the event of merger, stock splits, stock dividends or other changes in the capitalization of the Company.  The SIP expires on June 15, 2020.  In February 2013 and 2012, the Company granted 8,164 and 7,992 shares of restricted stock, respectively, to certain members of its Board of Directors as compensation for their service in 2012 and 2011, respectively, in accordance with the Company’s Non-employee Directors Compensation program adopted in October of 2010.  Such compensation was accrued for as of December 31, 2012 and 2011.  In February 2012, the Company also granted stock options to purchase52,611 shares of stock to certain executive officers in accordance with their respective employment agreements.  Stock compensation expense related to these options was $39 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2012.  At December 31, 2012, approximately $96 thousand unrecognized cost related to these stock options will be recognized over the next 2.15 years.  The fair value of the options granted in 2012 was determined with the following weighted average assumptions; dividend yield of 0%, risk free interest rate of 1.43%, expected life of 7.5 years, and expected volatility of 31.10%.  The weighted average fair value of options granted in 2012 was $2.56 per share.  At December 31, 2012, there were 439,397 shares available for issuance under the SIP.  In February 2013, the Company granted stock options to purchase 29,742 shares of stock to certain executive officers in accordance with their respective employment agreements.

A reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax at a rate of 34% to the income tax expense included in the statement of income for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 is as follows:

	2012		2011

Federal income tax at statutory rate	$	2,709	$	2,458
Tax free interest		(490)		(396)
Other		6		22
	$	2,225	$	2,084

The Company follows guidance in ASC Topic 740 regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The Company has evaluated its tax positions. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that has a likelihood of being realized on examination of more than 50 percent. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Under the “more likely than not” threshold guidelines, the Company believes no significant uncertain tax positions exist, either individually or in the aggregate, that would give rise to the non-recognition of an existing tax benefit. As ofDecember 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had no material unrecognized tax benefits or accrued interest and penalties. The Company’s policy is to account for interest as a component of interest expense and penalties as a component of other expense. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax. Neither the Company nor the Bank is subject to examination by U.S. Federal taxing authorities for years before 2009.

Note 13 - Transactions with Executive Officers, Directors and Principal Stockholders

The Company has had, and may be expected to have in the future, banking transactions in the ordinary course of business with its executive officers, directors, principal stockholders, their immediate families and affiliated companies (commonly referred to as related parties), on the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with others.

Related parties were indebted to the Company for loans totaling $2.6 million and $2.2 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  During 2012, loans totaling $1.1 million were disbursed and loan repayments totaled $776thousand.

Fees paid to related parties for legal services for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were approximately $49 thousand and $31 thousand, respectively. The Company leases its main banking office from an investment group comprised of related parties and its West Broad Street office also from a related party, as described in Note 9.

Note 14 - Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets.

The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the following financial instruments were outstanding whose contract amounts represent credit risk:

	2012		2011
	(In Thousands)
Commitments to grant loans, fixed	$	5,285	$	887
Commitments to grant loans, variable		8,994		11,319
Unfunded commitments under lines of credit, fixed		16,377		4,548
Unfunded commitments under lines of credit, variable		60,627		57,174
Standby letters of credit		4,994		4,422
	$	96,277	$	78,350

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation.

Embassy Bancorp, Inc.                                                                                                                          

Note 14 - Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk (Continued)

Collateral held varies but may include personal or commercial real estate, accounts receivable, inventory and equipment.

Outstanding letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The majority of these standby letters of credit expire within the next twelve months. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending other loan commitments. The Company requires collateral supporting these letters of credit as deemed necessary. The maximum undiscounted exposure related to these commitments at December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $5.0 million and $4.4 million, respectively, and the approximate value of underlying collateral upon liquidation that would be expected to cover this maximum potential exposure was $4.5 million and $4.3 million, respectively. The current amount of the liability as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 for guarantees under standby letters of credit issued is not considered material.

Note 15 - Regulatory Matters

The Company is required to maintain cash reserve balances in vault cash and with the Federal Reserve Bank. As of December 31, 2012,  the Company had a $2.3 million minimum reserve balance.

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet the minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, both the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth below) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2012, that the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

As of December 31, 2012, the most recent notification from the regulatory agencies categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

Note 16 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures.  The fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques.  Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.

Fair value guidance provides a consistent definition of fair value, which focuses on exit price in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. If there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, a change in valuation technique or the use of multiple valuation techniques may be appropriate. In such instances, determining the price at which willing market participants would transact at the measurement date under current market conditions depends on the facts and circumstances and requires the use of significant judgment. The fair value is a reasonable point within the range that is most representative of fair value under current market conditions.

ASC Topic 860 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 860 are as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported with little or no market activity).

An asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Note 16 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

For financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy utilized at December 31, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

For financial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used at December 31, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

Description	(Level 1)       Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets		(Level 2) Significant Other Observable Inputs		(Level 3) Significant Unobservable Inputs		Total

(1) Fair Value is generally determined through independent appraisals of the underlying collateral, which generally include various Level 3 inputs
which are not identifiable.  Fair values may also include qualitative adjustments by management based on economic conditions and
liquidation expenses.
(2) Fair Value determined using the debt service of the borrower.

Impaired loans are those that are accounted for under existing FASB guidance,  in which the Bank has measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.

Note 16 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure are to be sold and are carried at fair value less estimated cost to sell.  Fair value is based upon independent market prices or appraised value of the property.  These assets are included in Level 3 fair value based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

At December 31, 2012, of the impaired loans having an aggregate balance of $12.7 million, $8.9 million did not require a valuation allowance because the value of the collateral securing the loan was determined to meet or exceed the balance owed on the loan. Of the remaining $3.8 million in impaired loans, an aggregate valuation allowance of $750 thousand was required to reflect what was determined to be a shortfall in the value of the collateral as compared to the balance on such loans.

Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure are to be sold and are carried at fair value less estimated cost to sell.  Fair value is based upon independent market prices or appraised value of the property.  These assets are included in Level 3 fair value based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following table presents additional quantitative information about assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and for which the Company has utilized Level 3 inputs to determine fair value:

		Quantitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value Measurements
Description		Fair Value Estimate		Valuation Techniques	Unobservable Input	Range                (Weighted Average)

(2)	Appraisals may be adjusted by management for qualitative factors including economic conditions and the age of the appraisal.
	The range and weighted average of appraisal adjustments are presented as a percent of the appraisal.
(3)	Appraisals and pending agreements of sale are adjusted by management for liquidation expenses.  The range and weighted average of
	liquidation expense adjustments are presented as a percent of the appraisal or pending agreement of sale.
(4)	Fair value is determined by listings, letters of intent or third-party evaluations.
(5)	Fair value is determined using the debt service of the borrower.

The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

Cash and Cash Equivalents (Carried at Cost)

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and short-term instruments approximate those assets’ fair values.

71

Embassy Bancorp, Inc.                                                                                                                          

Note 16 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

Interest Bearing Time Deposits (Carried at Cost)

Fair values for fixed-rate time certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits. The Company generally purchases amounts below the insured limit, limiting the amount of credit risk on these time deposits.

Securities Available for Sale (Carried at Fair Value)

The fair value of securities available for sale are determined by matrix pricing (Level 2), which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service.  The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Loans Receivable (Carried at Cost)

The fair values of loans, excluding impaired loans carried at fair value of collateral, are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market rates at the balance sheet date that reflect the credit and interest rate-risk inherent in the loans. Projected future cash flows are calculated based upon contractual maturity or call dates, and projected repayments and prepayments of principal. Generally, for variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.

Restricted Investment in Bank Stock (Carried at Cost)

The carrying amount of restricted investment in bank stock approximates fair value, and considers the limited marketability of such securities.

Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable (Carried at Cost)

The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.

Deposit Liabilities (Carried at Cost)

The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and noninterest checking, passbook savings and money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase (Carried at Cost)

These borrowings are short term and the carrying amount approximates the fair value.

Long-Term Borrowings (Carried at Cost)

Fair values of FHLB and Univest advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on quoted prices for new FHLB and Univest advances with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity. These prices obtained from this active market represent a market value that is deemed to represent the transfer price if the liability were assumed by a third party.

Note 16 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments (Disclosed at Cost)

Fair values for the Company’s off-balance sheet financial instruments (lending commitments and letters of credit) are based on fees currently charged in the market to enter into similar agreements, taking into account, the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing.

Item 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

    (a)  Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

The Company maintains controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Based upon their evaluation of those controls and procedures as of December 31, 2012, the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officers of the Company concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were adequate.

    (b) Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Under the supervision and with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our control over financial reporting based on the Internal Control- Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on our evaluation under the framework, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2012.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act, which exempt smaller reporting companies from this requirement, thus permitting the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

    (c)  Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting.

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the final fiscal quarter of the year to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation and Nature of Operations

Embassy Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Pennsylvania corporation organized in 2008 and registered as a bank holding company pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act”). The Company was formed for purposes of acquiring Embassy Bank ForThe Lehigh Valley (the “Bank”) in connection with the reorganization of the Bank into a bank holding company structure, which was consummated on November 11, 2008.  Accordingly, the Company owns all of the capital stock of the Bank, giving the organization more flexibility in meeting its capital needs as the Company continues to grow.

The Bank, which is the Company’s principal operating subsidiary, was originally incorporated as a Pennsylvania bank on May 11, 2001 and opened its doors on November 6, 2001. It was formed by a group of local business persons and professionals with significant prior experience in community banking in the Lehigh Valley area of Pennsylvania, the Bank’s primary market area.

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of other real estate owned, and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Most of the Company’s activities are with customers located in the Lehigh Valley area of Pennsylvania. Note 2 discuss the types of securities in which the Company invests. The concentrations of credit by type of loan are set forth in Note 3. The Company does not have any significant concentrations to any one specific industry or customer, with the exception of lending activity to a broad range of lessors of residential and non-residential real estate within the Lehigh Valley. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, its debtors’ ability to honor their contracts is influenced by the region’s economy.

Presentation of Cash Flows

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, interest-bearing demand deposits with bank, and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are purchased or sold for less than one week periods.

Securities

Securities classified as available for sale are those securities that the Company intends to hold for an indefinite period of time, but not necessarily to maturity. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value. Any decision to sell a security classified as available for sale would be based on various factors, including significant movement in interest rates, changes in maturity mix of the Company’s assets and liabilities, liquidity needs, regulatory capital considerations and other similar factors. Unrealized gains and losses are reported as increases or decreases in other comprehensive income. Realized gains or losses, determined on the basis of the cost of the specific securities sold, are included in earnings. Premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Other than temporary accounting guidance specifies that (a) if a company does not have the intent to sell a debt security prior to recovery and (b) it is more likely than not that it will not have to sell the debt security prior to recovery, the security would not be considered other-than-temporarily impaired unless there is a credit loss. When an entity does not intend to sell the security, and it is more likely than not the entity will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis, it will recognize the credit component of an other-than-temporary impairment of a debt security in earnings and the remaining portion in other comprehensive income. The Company recognized no other-than-temporary impairment charges during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

Restricted Investments in Bank Stock

Restricted investments in bank stock consist of Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”) stock and Atlantic Central Bankers Bank (“ACBB”) stock.  The restricted stocks are carried at cost.  Federal law requires a member institution of the FHLB to hold stock of its district FHLB according to a predetermined formula.

In December 2008, the FHLB of Pittsburgh notified member banks that it was suspending dividend payments and the repurchase of capital stock, and any future capital stock repurchases will be made on a quarterly basis if conditions warrant such repurchases.  During 2012, 2011 and 2010, the FHLB conducted limited excess capital stock repurchases based upon positive quarterly net income.  Any future capital stock repurchases will be made on a quarterly basis if conditions warrant such repurchases. In February 2012, the FHLB announced that dividend payments would resume in 2012 and $2 thousand in dividend payments were received.

Management evaluates the FHLB and ACBB restricted stock for impairment. Management’s determination of whether these investments are impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of their cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the issuer as compared to the capital stock amount for the issuer and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the issuer to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the issuer, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the issuer.

Management believes no impairment charge is necessary related to the FHLB or ACBB restricted stock as of December 31, 2012.

Loans Receivable

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of any deferred fees or costs. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the yield using the effective interest method.  Premiums and discounts on purchased loans are amortized as adjustments to interest income using the effective interest method.  Delinquency fees are recognized in income when chargeable, assuming collectability is reasonably assured.

The loans receivable portfolio is segmented into commercial and consumer loans.  Commercial loans consist of the following classes: commercial real estate, commercial construction and commercial.  Consumer loans consist of the following classes: residential real estate and other consumer loans.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

The Company makes commercial loans for real estate development and other business purposes required by the customer base.  The Company’s credit policies determine advance rates against the different forms of collateral that can be pledged against commercial loans.  Typically, the majority of loans will be limited to a percentage of their underlying collateral values such as real estate values, equipment, eligible accounts receivable and inventory.  Individual loan advance rates may be higher or lower depending upon the financial strength of the borrower and/or term of the loan.  The assets financed through commercial loans are used within the business for its ongoing operation.  Repayment of these kinds of loans generally comes from the cash flow of the business or the ongoing conversion of assets.  Commercial real estate loans include long-term loans financing commercial properties.  Repayments of these loans are dependent upon either the ongoing cash flow of the borrowing entity or the resale of or lease of the subject property.  Commercial real estate loans typically require a loan to value of not greater than 80% and vary in terms.

Residential mortgages and home equity loans are secured by the borrower’s residential real estate in either a first or second lien position.  Residential mortgages and home equity loans have varying loan rates depending on the financial condition of the borrower and the loan to value ratio.  Residential mortgages may have amortizations up to 30 years and home equity loans may have maturities up to 25 years.  Other consumer loans include installment loans, car loans, and overdraft lines of credit.  The majority of these loans are unsecured.

For all classes of loans receivable, the accrual of interest may be discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan is currently performing.  A loan may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured.  When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest credited to income in the current year is reversed.  Interest received on nonaccrual loans, including impaired loans, generally is applied against principal.  Generally, loans are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time (generally six months) and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt.  The past due status of all classes of loans receivable is determined based on contractual due dates for loan payments.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The reserve for unfunded loan commitments represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in its unfunded loan commitments and is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.  The allowance for loan losses is increased by the provision for loan losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans, or portions of loans, determined to be confirmed losses are charged against the allowance account and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the account. A loss is considered confirmed when information available at the financial statement date indicates the loan, or a portion thereof, is uncollectible.

Management performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance.  The allowance is based on the Company’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Management maintains the allowance for loan losses at a level it believes adequate to absorb probable credit losses related to specifically identified loans, as well as probable incurred losses inherent in the remainder of the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet dates. The allowance for loan losses account consists of specific and general reserves. The specific component consists of the specific reserve for impaired loans individually evaluated under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 310, “Receivables,” and the general component is utilized for loss contingencies on those loans collectively evaluated under FASB ASC 450, “Contingencies.”

For the specific portion of the allowance for loan losses, a loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. All amounts due according to the contractual terms means that both the contractual interest and principal payments of a loan will be collected as scheduled in the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, ability to pay and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Loans considered impaired under FASB ASC 310 are measured for impairment based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. If the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral, if the loan is collateral dependent, is less than the recorded investment in the loan, including accrued interest and net deferred loan fees or costs, the Company will recognize the impairment by adjusting the allowance for loan losses account through charges to earnings as a provision for loan losses.

For loans secured by real estate, estimated fair values are determined primarily through third-party appraisals.  When a real estate secured loan becomes impaired, a decision is made regarding whether an updated certified appraisal of the real estate is necessary.  This decision is based on various considerations, including the age of the most recent appraisal, loan-to-value ratio based on the original appraisal and the condition of the property.  Appraised values are discounted to arrive at the estimated selling price of the collateral, which is considered to be the estimated fair value.  The discounts also include estimated costs to sell the property.

For commercial and industrial loans secured by non-real estate collateral, such as accounts receivable, inventory and equipment, estimated fair values are determined based on the borrower’s financial statements, inventory reports, accounts receivable aging or equipment appraisals or invoices. Indications of value from these sources are generally discounted based on the age of the financial information or the quality of the assets.

The general portion of the allowance for loan losses covers pools of loans by major loan class including commercial loans not considered impaired, as well as smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as residential real estate and other consumer loans. Loss contingencies for each of the major loan pools are determined by applying a total loss factor to the current balance outstanding for each individual pool. The total loss factor is comprised of a historical loss factor using the loss migration method plus a qualitative factor, which adjusts the historical loss factor for changes in trends, conditions and other relevant factors that may affect repayment of the loans in these pools as of the evaluation date. Loss migration involves determining the percentage of each pool that is expected to ultimately result in loss based on historical loss experience. Historical loss factors are based on the ratio of net loans charged-off to loans, net, for each of the major groups of loans evaluated and measured for impairment under FASB ASC 450. The historical loss factor for each pool is an average of the Company’s historical net charge-off ratio for the most recent rolling twenty quarters.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

In addition to these historical loss factors, management also uses a qualitative factor that represents a number of environmental risks that may cause estimated credit losses associated with the current portfolio to differ from historical loss experience. These environmental risks include: (i) changes in lending policies and procedures including underwriting standards and collection, charge-off and recovery practices; (ii) changes in the composition and volume of the portfolio; (iii) changes in national, local and industry conditions, including the effects of such changes on the value of underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans; (iv) changes in the volume and severity of classified loans, including past due, nonaccrual, troubled debt restructures and other loan modifications; (v) changes in the levels of, and trends in, charge-offs and recoveries; (vi) the existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations; (vii) changes in the experience, ability and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; (viii) changes in the quality of the loan review system and the degree of oversight by the board of directors; and (ix) the effect of external factors such as competition and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated credit losses in the current loan portfolio. Each environmental risk factor is assigned a value to reflect improving, stable or declining conditions based on management’s best judgment using relevant information available at the time of the evaluation. Adjustments to the factors are supported through documentation of changes in conditions in a narrative accompanying the allowance for loan loss calculation.

The unallocated component of the general allowance is used to cover inherent losses that exist as of the evaluation date, but which have not been identified as part of the allocated allowance using the above impairment evaluation methodology due to limitations in the process. One such limitation is the imprecision of accurately estimating the impact current economic conditions will have on historical loss rates. Variations in the magnitude of impact may cause estimated credit losses associated with the current portfolio to differ from historical loss experience, resulting in an allowance that is higher or lower than the anticipated level.

The allowance calculation methodology includes further segregation of loan classes into risk rating categories.  The borrower’s overall financial condition, repayment sources, guarantors and value of collateral, if appropriate, are evaluated annually for commercial loans or when credit deficiencies arise, such as delinquent loan payment, for commercial and consumer loans.  Credit quality risk ratings include regulatory classifications of special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss.  Loans criticized as special mention have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention.  If uncorrected, the potential weakness may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects.  Loans classified substandard have a well-defined weakness and borrowers are highly leveraged.  They include loans that are inadequately protected by the current sound net worth and the paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any.  Loans classified doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified substandard with the added characteristic that collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of current conditions and facts, is highly improbable.  Loans classified as a loss are considered uncollectible and are charged to the allowance for loan losses.  Loans not classified are rated pass.

Federal regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses and may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination, which may not be currently available to management. Based on management’s comprehensive analysis of the loan portfolio, management believes the current level of the allowance for loan losses is adequate.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Other Real Estate Owned

Other real estate owned is comprised of properties acquired through foreclosure proceedings or acceptance of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure and loans classified as in-substance foreclosures.  A loan is classified as an in-substance foreclosure when the Company has taken possession of the collateral, regardless of whether formal foreclosure proceedings take place. Other real estate owned is recorded at fair value less cost to sell at the time of acquisition. Any excess of the loan balance over the recorded value is charged to the allowance for loan losses. After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed and the assets are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less cost to sell.  Changes in the valuation allowance on foreclosed assets are included in other income.  Costs to maintain the assets are included in other expenses. Any gain or loss realized upon disposal of other real estate owned is included in other income.

Bank Owned Life Insurance

The Company invests in bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) as a source of funding for employee benefit expenses.  BOLI involves the purchasing of life insurance by the Company on certain of its employees.  The Company is the owner and beneficiary of the policies.  This life insurance investment is carried at the cash surrender value of the underlying policies.  Income from increases in cash surrender value of the policies is included in non-interest income.

Premises and Equipment

Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the related assets: furniture, fixtures and equipment for five to ten years, leasehold improvements for ten to fifteen years, computer equipment and data processing software for three to five years, and automobiles for five years.

Transfers of Financial Assets

Transfers of financial assets, including sales of loan participations, are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.

Advertising Costs

The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising to expense as incurred.

Income Taxes

Income tax accounting guidance results in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred.  Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to taxable income.  Deferred income taxes are provided on the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences.  Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and net operating loss carry forwards and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share represents income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, as adjusted for stock dividends and splits. Diluted earnings per share reflect additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustments to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate solely to outstanding stock options and are determined using the treasury stock method.

	2012		2011
	(Dollars In Thousands, Except Per Share Data)
Net income	$	5,743	$	5,144

Stock options of 127,942 and 72,139 were not considered in computing diluted earnings per common share for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, because they are not dilutive to earnings.

Employee Benefit Plan

The Company has a 401(k) Plan (the “Plan”) for employees. All employees are eligible to participate after they have attained the age of 21 and have also completed 12 consecutive months of service during which at least 1,000 hours of service are completed. The employees may contribute up to the maximum percentage allowable by law of their compensation to the Plan, and the Company provides a match of fifty percent of the first 8% percent to eligible participating employees. Full vesting in the Plan is prorated equally over a four-year period. The Company’s contributions to the Plan for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were $96 thousand and $97 thousand, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments

In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into off-balance sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the balance sheet when they are funded.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Comprehensive Income

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income. In accordance with new Financial Accounting Standards Board guidance, the Company has disclosed the components of comprehensive income in the accompanying statements of comprehensive income.

Segment Reporting

The Company acts as an independent, community, financial services provider, and offers traditional banking and related financial services to individual, business and government customers. The Company offers a full array of commercial and retail financial services, including the taking of time, savings and demand deposits; the making of commercial, consumer and home equity loans; and the provision of other financial services.

Management does not separately allocate expenses, including the cost of funding loan demand, between the commercial and retail operations of the Company. As such, discrete financial information is not available and segment reporting would not be meaningful.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company applies the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. ASC 718 requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award based on the fair value of the award.  The Black-Scholes model is used to estimate the fair value of stock options.

Subsequent Events

The Company follows ASC Topic 855 Subsequent Events.  This topic establishes general standards for accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued.  The Company has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the balance sheet date of December 31, 2012 through the date these financial statements were available for issuance for items that should potentially be recognized or disclosed in these financial statements.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

New Accounting Standards

ASU 2013-02 (Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) – Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income):

The objective of this ASU is to improve the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income.  This ASU requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income, by component, on the respective line items in the income statement if the amount being reclassified is required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to be reclassified in its entirety to net income.  Reclassifications that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period are required to be cross referenced to other U.S. GAAP disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts.  This is the case when a portion of the amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified to a balance sheet account rather than directly to income or expense in the same reporting period.  For example, some portion of net periodic pension cost is immediately reported in net income, but other portions may be capitalized to an asset balance such as fixed assets or inventory.  An entity with significant defined benefit pension costs reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income but not to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period should identify the amount of each pension cost component reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income and make reference to the relevant pension cost disclosure that provides greater detail about these reclassifications.

The amendments do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements.  However, the amendments require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component.  In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income.

The provisions of this ASU are effective for public entities prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012.  The Company does not expect this ASU to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2011-04 (Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs):

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. This update amends FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, to bring U.S. GAAP for fair value measurements in line with International Accounting Standards. The Update clarifies existing guidance for items such as: the application of the highest and best use concept to non-financial assets and liabilities; the application of fair value measurement to financial instruments classified in a reporting entity’s stockholder’s equity; and disclosure requirements regarding quantitative information about unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements of level 3 assets. The Update also creates an exception to Topic 820 for entities which carry financial instruments within a portfolio or group, under which the entity is now permitted to base the price used for fair valuation upon a price that would be received to sell the net asset position or transfer a net liability position in an orderly transaction. The Update also allows for the application of premiums and discounts in a fair value measurement if the financial instrument is categorized in level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Lastly, the ASU contains new disclosure requirements regarding fair value amounts categorized as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy such as: disclosure of the valuation process used; effects of and relationships between unobservable inputs; usage of nonfinancial assets for purposes other than their highest and best use when that is the basis of the disclosed fair value; and categorization by level of items disclosed at fair value, but not measured at fair value for financial statement purposes. For public entities, this Update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption was not permitted.  The Company adopted this update on January 1, 2012 and the new disclosures are included in Note 16.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

ASU 2011-05 (Comprehensive Income: Presentation of Comprehensive Income):

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income.  The provisions of this update amend FASB ASC Topic 220, Comprehensive Income, to facilitate the continued alignment of U.S. GAAP with International Accounting Standards. The Update prohibits the presentation of the components of comprehensive income in the statement of stockholder’s equity. Reporting entities are allowed to present either: a statement of comprehensive income, which reports both net income and other comprehensive income; or separate statements of net income and other comprehensive income. Under previous GAAP, all 3 presentations were acceptable. Regardless of the presentation selected, the Reporting Entity is required to present all reclassifications between other comprehensive and net income on the face of the new statement or statements. The provisions of this Update were effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2011 for public entities.  The Company adopted this update on January 1, 2012, and the new Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income are included in these financial statements.

Reclassification

Certain amounts in the 2011 financial statements may have been reclassified to conform to 2012 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on 2011 net income.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk [Abstract]

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

Note 14 - Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets.

The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the following financial instruments were outstanding whose contract amounts represent credit risk:

	2012		2011
	(In Thousands)
Commitments to grant loans, fixed	$	5,285	$	887
Commitments to grant loans, variable		8,994		11,319
Unfunded commitments under lines of credit, fixed		16,377		4,548
Unfunded commitments under lines of credit, variable		60,627		57,174
Standby letters of credit		4,994		4,422
	$	96,277	$	78,350

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation.

Note 14 - Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk (Continued)

Collateral held varies but may include personal or commercial real estate, accounts receivable, inventory and equipment.

Outstanding letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The majority of these standby letters of credit expire within the next twelve months. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending other loan commitments. The Company requires collateral supporting these letters of credit as deemed necessary. The maximum undiscounted exposure related to these commitments at December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $5.0 million and $4.4 million, respectively, and the approximate value of underlying collateral upon liquidation that would be expected to cover this maximum potential exposure was $4.5 million and $4.3 million, respectively. The current amount of the liability as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 for guarantees under standby letters of credit issued is not considered material.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments [Abstract]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Note 16 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures.  The fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques.  Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.

Fair value guidance provides a consistent definition of fair value, which focuses on exit price in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. If there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, a change in valuation technique or the use of multiple valuation techniques may be appropriate. In such instances, determining the price at which willing market participants would transact at the measurement date under current market conditions depends on the facts and circumstances and requires the use of significant judgment. The fair value is a reasonable point within the range that is most representative of fair value under current market conditions.

ASC Topic 860 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 860 are as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported with little or no market activity).

An asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Note 16 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

For financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy utilized at December 31, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

(1) Fair Value is generally determined through independent appraisals of the underlying collateral, which generally include various Level 3 inputs
which are not identifiable.  Fair values may also include qualitative adjustments by management based on economic conditions and
liquidation expenses.
(2) Fair Value determined using the debt service of the borrower.

Impaired loans are those that are accounted for under existing FASB guidance,  in which the Bank has measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.

Note 16 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure are to be sold and are carried at fair value less estimated cost to sell.  Fair value is based upon independent market prices or appraised value of the property.  These assets are included in Level 3 fair value based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

At December 31, 2012, of the impaired loans having an aggregate balance of $12.7 million, $8.9 million did not require a valuation allowance because the value of the collateral securing the loan was determined to meet or exceed the balance owed on the loan. Of the remaining $3.8 million in impaired loans, an aggregate valuation allowance of $750 thousand was required to reflect what was determined to be a shortfall in the value of the collateral as compared to the balance on such loans.

Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure are to be sold and are carried at fair value less estimated cost to sell.  Fair value is based upon independent market prices or appraised value of the property.  These assets are included in Level 3 fair value based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following table presents additional quantitative information about assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and for which the Company has utilized Level 3 inputs to determine fair value:

The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

Cash and Cash Equivalents (Carried at Cost)

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and short-term instruments approximate those assets’ fair values.

Note 16 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

Interest Bearing Time Deposits (Carried at Cost)

Fair values for fixed-rate time certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits. The Company generally purchases amounts below the insured limit, limiting the amount of credit risk on these time deposits.

Securities Available for Sale (Carried at Fair Value)

The fair value of securities available for sale are determined by matrix pricing (Level 2), which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities, but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service.  The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Loans Receivable (Carried at Cost)

The fair values of loans, excluding impaired loans carried at fair value of collateral, are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market rates at the balance sheet date that reflect the credit and interest rate-risk inherent in the loans. Projected future cash flows are calculated based upon contractual maturity or call dates, and projected repayments and prepayments of principal. Generally, for variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.

Restricted Investment in Bank Stock (Carried at Cost)

The carrying amount of restricted investment in bank stock approximates fair value, and considers the limited marketability of such securities.

Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable (Carried at Cost)

The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.

Deposit Liabilities (Carried at Cost)

The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and noninterest checking, passbook savings and money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase (Carried at Cost)

These borrowings are short term and the carrying amount approximates the fair value.

Long-Term Borrowings (Carried at Cost)

Fair values of FHLB and Univest advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on quoted prices for new FHLB and Univest advances with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity. These prices obtained from this active market represent a market value that is deemed to represent the transfer price if the liability were assumed by a third party.

Note 16 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments (Disclosed at Cost)

Fair values for the Company’s off-balance sheet financial instruments (lending commitments and letters of credit) are based on fees currently charged in the market to enter into similar agreements, taking into account, the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing.

Note 16 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)

The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments were as follows at December 31, 2012 and 2011:

Troubled Debt Restructurings

The Company may grant a concession or modification for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial condition than it would not otherwise consider, resulting in a modified loan which is then identified as troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”).  The Company may modify loans through rate reductions, extensions to maturity, interest only payments, or payment modifications to better coincide the timing of payments due under the modified terms with the expected timing of cash flows from the borrowers’ operations.  Loan modifications are intended to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral.  TDRs are considered impaired loans for purposes of calculating the Company’s allowance for loan losses.

The Company identifies loans for potential restructure primarily through direct communication with the borrower and the evaluation of the borrower’s financial statements, revenue projections, tax returns, and credit reports.  Even if the borrower is not presently in default, management will consider the likelihood that cash flow shortages, adverse economic conditions, and negative trends may result in a payment default in the near future.

Note 4 – Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued)

The following table presents newly restructured loans that occurred during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011:

Regulatory Matters

Note 15 - Regulatory Matters

The Company is required to maintain cash reserve balances in vault cash and with the Federal Reserve Bank. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had a $2.3 million minimum reserve balance.

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet the minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, both the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth below) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2012, that the Company and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

As of December 31, 2012, the most recent notification from the regulatory agencies categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

Note 15 - Regulatory Matters (Continued)

The Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios at December 31, 2012 and 2011 are presented below:

Stock Option and Stock Incentive Plans

Note 11 - Stock Option and Stock Incentive Plans

Stock Option Plan:

In connection with the reorganization of the Bank into a holding company structure, the Company assumed the Bank’s 2001 Stock Option Plan which was renamed the Embassy Bancorp, Inc. Option Plan (the “Plan”). The plan expired on May 10, 2011, and no new options may be granted under this plan.  The Plan authorized the Board of Directors to grant options to officers, other employees and directors of the Company.  The options granted under the Plan to directors were non-qualified options. The options granted under the Plan to officers and other employees were generally intended to be “incentive stock options,” and are subject to the limitations under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. Shares issued upon exercise of options under the Plan may be funded from authorized but unissued shares of the Company or shares purchased in the open market. All options granted under the Plan were subject to vesting requirements of not less than three years and the term shall not exceed ten years. The exercise price of the options granted was intended to reflect the fair market value of a share of common stock at the time of the grant.

Stock Incentive Plan:

At the Company’s annual meeting on June 16, 2010, the shareholders approved the Embassy Bancorp, Inc. 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the “SIP”).  The SIP authorizes the Board of Directors, or a committee authorized by the Board of Directors, to award a stock based incentive to (i) designated officers (including officers who are directors) and other designated employees at the Company and its subsidiaries, and (ii) non-employee members of the Board of Directors and advisors and consultants to the Company and its subsidiaries.  The SIP provides for stock based incentives in the form of incentive stock options as provided in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and deferred stock awards.  The term of the option, the amount of time for the option to vest after grant, if any, and other terms and limitations will be determined at the time of grant. Options granted under the SIP may not have an exercise period that is more than ten years from the time the option is granted.

At inception, the aggregate number of shares available for issuance under the SIP was500,000.  The SIP provides for appropriate adjustments in the number and kind of shares available for grant or subject to outstanding awards under the SIP to avoid dilution in the event of merger, stock splits, stock dividends or other changes in the capitalization of the Company.  The SIP expires on June 15, 2020.  In February 2013 and 2012, the Company granted8,164 and7,992 shares of restricted stock, respectively, to certain members of its Board of Directors as compensation for their service in 2012 and 2011, respectively, in accordance with the Company’s Non-employee Directors Compensation program adopted in October of 2010.  Such compensation was accrued for as of December 31, 2012 and 2011.  In February 2012, the Company also granted stock options to purchase52,611 shares of stock to certain executive officers in accordance with their respective employment agreements.  Stock compensation expense related to these options was $39 thousand for the year endedDecember 31, 2012.  At December 31, 2012, approximately $96 thousand unrecognized cost related to these stock options will be recognized over the next 2.15 years.  The fair value of the options granted in 2012 was determined with the following weighted average assumptions; dividend yield of 0%, risk free interest rate of 1.43%, expected life of 7.5 years, and expected volatility of 31.10%.  The weighted average fair value of options granted in 2012 was $2.56 per share.  At December 31, 2012, there were 439,397 shares available for issuance under the SIP.  In February 2013, the Company granted stock options to purchase 29,742 shares of stock to certain executive officers in accordance with their respective employment agreements.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Principles of Consolidation and Nature of Operations [Policy Text Block]

Principles of Consolidation and Nature of Operations

Embassy Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Pennsylvania corporation organized in 2008 and registered as a bank holding company pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHC Act”). The Company was formed for purposes of acquiring Embassy Bank ForThe Lehigh Valley (the “Bank”) in connection with the reorganization of the Bank into a bank holding company structure, which was consummated on November 11, 2008.  Accordingly, the Company owns all of the capital stock of the Bank, giving the organization more flexibility in meeting its capital needs as the Company continues to grow.

The Bank, which is the Company’s principal operating subsidiary, was originally incorporated as a Pennsylvania bank on May 11, 2001 and opened its doors on November 6, 2001. It was formed by a group of local business persons and professionals with significant prior experience in community banking in the Lehigh Valley area of Pennsylvania, the Bank’s primary market area.

Estimates [Policy Text Block]

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of other real estate owned, and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

Concentrations of Credit Risk [Policy Text Block]

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Most of the Company’s activities are with customers located in the Lehigh Valley area of Pennsylvania. Note 2 discuss the types of securities in which the Company invests. The concentrations of credit by type of loan are set forth in Note 3. The Company does not have any significant concentrations to any one specific industry or customer, with the exception of lending activity to a broad range of lessors of residential and non-residential real estate within the Lehigh Valley. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, its debtors’ ability to honor their contracts is influenced by the region’s economy.

Presentation of Cash Flows [Policy Text Block]

Presentation of Cash Flows

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, interest-bearing demand deposits with bank, and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are purchased or sold for less than one week periods.

Securities [Policy Text Block]

Securities

Securities classified as available for sale are those securities that the Company intends to hold for an indefinite period of time, but not necessarily to maturity. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value. Any decision to sell a security classified as available for sale would be based on various factors, including significant movement in interest rates, changes in maturity mix of the Company’s assets and liabilities, liquidity needs, regulatory capital considerations and other similar factors. Unrealized gains and losses are reported as increases or decreases in other comprehensive income. Realized gains or losses, determined on the basis of the cost of the specific securities sold, are included in earnings. Premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Other than temporary accounting guidance specifies that (a) if a company does not have the intent to sell a debt security prior to recovery and (b) it is more likely than not that it will not have to sell the debt security prior to recovery, the security would not be considered other-than-temporarily impaired unless there is a credit loss. When an entity does not intend to sell the security, and it is more likely than not the entity will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis, it will recognize the credit component of an other-than-temporary impairment of a debt security in earnings and the remaining portion in other comprehensive income. The Company recognized no other-than-temporary impairment charges during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

Restricted Investments in Bank Stock [Policy Text Block]

Restricted Investments in Bank Stock

Restricted investments in bank stock consist of Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”) stock and Atlantic Central Bankers Bank (“ACBB”) stock.  The restricted stocks are carried at cost.  Federal law requires a member institution of the FHLB to hold stock of its district FHLB according to a predetermined formula.

In December 2008, the FHLB of Pittsburgh notified member banks that it was suspending dividend payments and the repurchase of capital stock, and any future capital stock repurchases will be made on a quarterly basis if conditions warrant such repurchases.  During 2012, 2011 and 2010, the FHLB conducted limited excess capital stock repurchases based upon positive quarterly net income.  Any future capital stock repurchases will be made on a quarterly basis if conditions warrant such repurchases. In February 2012, the FHLB announced that dividend payments would resume in 2012 and $2 thousand in dividend payments were received.

Management evaluates the FHLB and ACBB restricted stock for impairment. Management’s determination of whether these investments are impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of their cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the issuer as compared to the capital stock amount for the issuer and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the issuer to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the issuer, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the issuer.

Management believes no impairment charge is necessary related to the FHLB or ACBB restricted stock as of December 31, 2012.

Loans Receivable [Policy Text Block]

Loans Receivable

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of any deferred fees or costs. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the yield using the effective interest method.  Premiums and discounts on purchased loans are amortized as adjustments to interest income using the effective interest method.  Delinquency fees are recognized in income when chargeable, assuming collectability is reasonably assured.

The loans receivable portfolio is segmented into commercial and consumer loans.  Commercial loans consist of the following classes: commercial real estate, commercial construction and commercial.  Consumer loans consist of the following classes: residential real estate and other consumer loans.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

The Company makes commercial loans for real estate development and other business purposes required by the customer base.  The Company’s credit policies determine advance rates against the different forms of collateral that can be pledged against commercial loans.  Typically, the majority of loans will be limited to a percentage of their underlying collateral values such as real estate values, equipment, eligible accounts receivable and inventory.  Individual loan advance rates may be higher or lower depending upon the financial strength of the borrower and/or term of the loan.  The assets financed through commercial loans are used within the business for its ongoing operation.  Repayment of these kinds of loans generally comes from the cash flow of the business or the ongoing conversion of assets.  Commercial real estate loans include long-term loans financing commercial properties.  Repayments of these loans are dependent upon either the ongoing cash flow of the borrowing entity or the resale of or lease of the subject property.  Commercial real estate loans typically require a loan to value of not greater than 80% and vary in terms.

Residential mortgages and home equity loans are secured by the borrower’s residential real estate in either a first or second lien position.  Residential mortgages and home equity loans have varying loan rates depending on the financial condition of the borrower and the loan to value ratio.  Residential mortgages may have amortizations up to 30 years and home equity loans may have maturities up to 25 years.  Other consumer loans include installment loans, car loans, and overdraft lines of credit.  The majority of these loans are unsecured.

For all classes of loans receivable, the accrual of interest may be discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the loan is currently performing.  A loan may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured.  When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest credited to income in the current year is reversed.  Interest received on nonaccrual loans, including impaired loans, generally is applied against principal.  Generally, loans are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time (generally six months) and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt.  The past due status of all classes of loans receivable is determined based on contractual due dates for loan payments.

Allowance for Loan Losses [Policy Text Block]

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The reserve for unfunded loan commitments represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in its unfunded loan commitments and is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.  The allowance for loan losses is increased by the provision for loan losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans, or portions of loans, determined to be confirmed losses are charged against the allowance account and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the account. A loss is considered confirmed when information available at the financial statement date indicates the loan, or a portion thereof, is uncollectible.

Management performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance.  The allowance is based on the Company’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Management maintains the allowance for loan losses at a level it believes adequate to absorb probable credit losses related to specifically identified loans, as well as probable incurred losses inherent in the remainder of the loan portfolio as of the balance sheet dates. The allowance for loan losses account consists of specific and general reserves. The specific component consists of the specific reserve for impaired loans individually evaluated under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 310, “Receivables,” and the general component is utilized for loss contingencies on those loans collectively evaluated under FASB ASC 450, “Contingencies.”

For the specific portion of the allowance for loan losses, a loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. All amounts due according to the contractual terms means that both the contractual interest and principal payments of a loan will be collected as scheduled in the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, ability to pay and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Loans considered impaired under FASB ASC 310 are measured for impairment based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. If the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral, if the loan is collateral dependent, is less than the recorded investment in the loan, including accrued interest and net deferred loan fees or costs, the Company will recognize the impairment by adjusting the allowance for loan losses account through charges to earnings as a provision for loan losses.

For loans secured by real estate, estimated fair values are determined primarily through third-party appraisals.  When a real estate secured loan becomes impaired, a decision is made regarding whether an updated certified appraisal of the real estate is necessary.  This decision is based on various considerations, including the age of the most recent appraisal, loan-to-value ratio based on the original appraisal and the condition of the property.  Appraised values are discounted to arrive at the estimated selling price of the collateral, which is considered to be the estimated fair value.  The discounts also include estimated costs to sell the property.

For commercial and industrial loans secured by non-real estate collateral, such as accounts receivable, inventory and equipment, estimated fair values are determined based on the borrower’s financial statements, inventory reports, accounts receivable aging or equipment appraisals or invoices. Indications of value from these sources are generally discounted based on the age of the financial information or the quality of the assets.

The general portion of the allowance for loan losses covers pools of loans by major loan class including commercial loans not considered impaired, as well as smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as residential real estate and other consumer loans. Loss contingencies for each of the major loan pools are determined by applying a total loss factor to the current balance outstanding for each individual pool. The total loss factor is comprised of a historical loss factor using the loss migration method plus a qualitative factor, which adjusts the historical loss factor for changes in trends, conditions and other relevant factors that may affect repayment of the loans in these pools as of the evaluation date. Loss migration involves determining the percentage of each pool that is expected to ultimately result in loss based on historical loss experience. Historical loss factors are based on the ratio of net loans charged-off to loans, net, for each of the major groups of loans evaluated and measured for impairment under FASB ASC 450. The historical loss factor for each pool is an average of the Company’s historical net charge-off ratio for the most recent rolling twenty quarters.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

In addition to these historical loss factors, management also uses a qualitative factor that represents a number of environmental risks that may cause estimated credit losses associated with the current portfolio to differ from historical loss experience. These environmental risks include: (i) changes in lending policies and procedures including underwriting standards and collection, charge-off and recovery practices; (ii) changes in the composition and volume of the portfolio; (iii) changes in national, local and industry conditions, including the effects of such changes on the value of underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans; (iv) changes in the volume and severity of classified loans, including past due, nonaccrual, troubled debt restructures and other loan modifications; (v) changes in the levels of, and trends in, charge-offs and recoveries; (vi) the existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations; (vii) changes in the experience, ability and depth of lending management and other relevant staff; (viii) changes in the quality of the loan review system and the degree of oversight by the board of directors; and (ix) the effect of external factors such as competition and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated credit losses in the current loan portfolio. Each environmental risk factor is assigned a value to reflect improving, stable or declining conditions based on management’s best judgment using relevant information available at the time of the evaluation. Adjustments to the factors are supported through documentation of changes in conditions in a narrative accompanying the allowance for loan loss calculation.

The unallocated component of the general allowance is used to cover inherent losses that exist as of the evaluation date, but which have not been identified as part of the allocated allowance using the above impairment evaluation methodology due to limitations in the process. One such limitation is the imprecision of accurately estimating the impact current economic conditions will have on historical loss rates. Variations in the magnitude of impact may cause estimated credit losses associated with the current portfolio to differ from historical loss experience, resulting in an allowance that is higher or lower than the anticipated level.

The allowance calculation methodology includes further segregation of loan classes into risk rating categories.  The borrower’s overall financial condition, repayment sources, guarantors and value of collateral, if appropriate, are evaluated annually for commercial loans or when credit deficiencies arise, such as delinquent loan payment, for commercial and consumer loans.  Credit quality risk ratings include regulatory classifications of special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss.  Loans criticized as special mention have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention.  If uncorrected, the potential weakness may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects.  Loans classified substandard have a well-defined weakness and borrowers are highly leveraged.  They include loans that are inadequately protected by the current sound net worth and the paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any.  Loans classified doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified substandard with the added characteristic that collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of current conditions and facts, is highly improbable.  Loans classified as a loss are considered uncollectible and are charged to the allowance for loan losses.  Loans not classified are rated pass.

Federal regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses and may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination, which may not be currently available to management. Based on management’s comprehensive analysis of the loan portfolio, management believes the current level of the allowance for loan losses is adequate.

Other Real Estate Owned [Policy Text Block]

Other Real Estate Owned

Other real estate owned is comprised of properties acquired through foreclosure proceedings or acceptance of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure and loans classified as in-substance foreclosures.  A loan is classified as an in-substance foreclosure when the Company has taken possession of the collateral, regardless of whether formal foreclosure proceedings take place. Other real estate owned is recorded at fair value less cost to sell at the time of acquisition. Any excess of the loan balance over the recorded value is charged to the allowance for loan losses. After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed and the assets are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less cost to sell.  Changes in the valuation allowance on foreclosed assets are included in other income.  Costs to maintain the assets are included in other expenses. Any gain or loss realized upon disposal of other real estate owned is included in other income.

Bank Owned Life Insurance [Policy Text Block]

Bank Owned Life Insurance

The Company invests in bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) as a source of funding for employee benefit expenses.  BOLI involves the purchasing of life insurance by the Company on certain of its employees.  The Company is the owner and beneficiary of the policies.  This life insurance investment is carried at the cash surrender value of the underlying policies.  Income from increases in cash surrender value of the policies is included in non-interest income.

Premises and Equipment [Policy Text Block]

Premises and Equipment

Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the related assets: furniture, fixtures and equipment for five to ten years, leasehold improvements for ten to fifteen years, computer equipment and data processing software for three to five years, and automobiles for five years.

Transfers of Financial Assets [Policy Text Block]

Transfers of Financial Assets

Transfers of financial assets, including sales of loan participations, are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.

Advertising Costs [Policy Text Block]

Advertising Costs

The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising to expense as incurred.

Income Taxes [Policy Text Block]

Income Taxes

Income tax accounting guidance results in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred.  Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to taxable income.  Deferred income taxes are provided on the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences.  Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and net operating loss carry forwards and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings per Share [Policy Text Block]

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share represents income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, as adjusted for stock dividends and splits. Diluted earnings per share reflect additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustments to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate solely to outstanding stock options and are determined using the treasury stock method.

	2012		2011
	(Dollars In Thousands, Except Per Share Data)
Net income	$	5,743	$	5,144
Weighted average shares outstanding		7,195,353		7,164,565

Basic earnings per share	$	0.80	$	0.72
Diluted earnings per share	$	0.80	$	0.71

Stock options of 127,942 and 72,139 were not considered in computing diluted earnings per common share for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, because they are not dilutive to earnings.

Employee Benefit Plan [Policy Text Block]

Employee Benefit Plan

The Company has a 401(k) Plan (the “Plan”) for employees. All employees are eligible to participate after they have attained the age of 21 and have also completed 12 consecutive months of service during which at least 1,000 hours of service are completed. The employees may contribute up to the maximum percentage allowable by law of their compensation to the Plan, and the Company provides a match of fifty percent of the first 8% percent to eligible participating employees. Full vesting in the Plan is prorated equally over a four-year period. The Company’s contributions to the Plan for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were $96 thousand and $97 thousand, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments [Policy Text Block]

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments

In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into off-balance sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the balance sheet when they are funded.

Comprehensive Income [Policy Text Block]

Comprehensive Income

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income. In accordance with new Financial Accounting Standards Board guidance, the Company has disclosed the components of comprehensive income in the accompanying statements of comprehensive income.

Segment Reporting [Policy Text Block]

Segment Reporting

The Company acts as an independent, community, financial services provider, and offers traditional banking and related financial services to individual, business and government customers. The Company offers a full array of commercial and retail financial services, including the taking of time, savings and demand deposits; the making of commercial, consumer and home equity loans; and the provision of other financial services.

Management does not separately allocate expenses, including the cost of funding loan demand, between the commercial and retail operations of the Company. As such, discrete financial information is not available and segment reporting would not be meaningful.

Stock-Based Compensation [Policy Text Block]

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company applies the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. ASC 718 requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award based on the fair value of the award.  The Black-Scholes model is used to estimate the fair value of stock options.

Subsequent Events [Policy Text Block]

Subsequent Events

The Company follows ASC Topic 855 Subsequent Events.  This topic establishes general standards for accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued.  The Company has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the balance sheet date of December 31, 2012 through the date these financial statements were available for issuance for items that should potentially be recognized or disclosed in these financial statements.

New Accounting Standards [Policy Text Block]

New Accounting Standards

ASU 2013-02 (Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) – Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income):

The objective of this ASU is to improve the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income.  This ASU requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income, by component, on the respective line items in the income statement if the amount being reclassified is required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to be reclassified in its entirety to net income.  Reclassifications that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period are required to be cross referenced to other U.S. GAAP disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts.  This is the case when a portion of the amount reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income is reclassified to a balance sheet account rather than directly to income or expense in the same reporting period.  For example, some portion of net periodic pension cost is immediately reported in net income, but other portions may be capitalized to an asset balance such as fixed assets or inventory.  An entity with significant defined benefit pension costs reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income but not to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period should identify the amount of each pension cost component reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income and make reference to the relevant pension cost disclosure that provides greater detail about these reclassifications.

The amendments do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements.  However, the amendments require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component.  In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income.

The provisions of this ASU are effective for public entities prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012.  The Company does not expect this ASU to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2011-04 (Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs):

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. This update amends FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, to bring U.S. GAAP for fair value measurements in line with International Accounting Standards. The Update clarifies existing guidance for items such as: the application of the highest and best use concept to non-financial assets and liabilities; the application of fair value measurement to financial instruments classified in a reporting entity’s stockholder’s equity; and disclosure requirements regarding quantitative information about unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements of level 3 assets. The Update also creates an exception to Topic 820 for entities which carry financial instruments within a portfolio or group, under which the entity is now permitted to base the price used for fair valuation upon a price that would be received to sell the net asset position or transfer a net liability position in an orderly transaction. The Update also allows for the application of premiums and discounts in a fair value measurement if the financial instrument is categorized in level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Lastly, the ASU contains new disclosure requirements regarding fair value amounts categorized as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy such as: disclosure of the valuation process used; effects of and relationships between unobservable inputs; usage of nonfinancial assets for purposes other than their highest and best use when that is the basis of the disclosed fair value; and categorization by level of items disclosed at fair value, but not measured at fair value for financial statement purposes. For public entities, this Update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.

ASU 2011-05 (Comprehensive Income: Presentation of Comprehensive Income):

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income.  The provisions of this update amend FASB ASC Topic 220, Comprehensive Income, to facilitate the continued alignment of U.S. GAAP with International Accounting Standards. The Update prohibits the presentation of the components of comprehensive income in the statement of stockholder’s equity. Reporting entities are allowed to present either: a statement of comprehensive income, which reports both net income and other comprehensive income; or separate statements of net income and other comprehensive income. Under previous GAAP, all 3 presentations were acceptable. Regardless of the presentation selected, the Reporting Entity is required to present all reclassifications between other comprehensive and net income on the face of the new statement or statements. The provisions of this Update were effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2011 for public entities.  The Company adopted this update on January 1, 2012, and the new Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income are included in these financial statements.

Reclassification [Policy Text Block]

Reclassification

Certain amounts in the 2011 financial statements may have been reclassified to conform to 2012 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on 2011 net income.

Allowance for Loan Losses [Abstract]

Troubled Debt Restructurings

Troubled Debt Restructurings

The Company may grant a concession or modification for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial condition than it would not otherwise consider, resulting in a modified loan which is then identified as troubled debt restructuring (“TDR”).  The Company may modify loans through rate reductions, extensions to maturity, interest only payments, or payment modifications to better coincide the timing of payments due under the modified terms with the expected timing of cash flows from the borrowers’ operations.  Loan modifications are intended to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of the collateral.  TDRs are considered impaired loans for purposes of calculating the Company’s allowance for loan losses.

The Company identifies loans for potential restructure primarily through direct communication with the borrower and the evaluation of the borrower’s financial statements, revenue projections, tax returns, and credit reports.  Even if the borrower is not presently in default, management will consider the likelihood that cash flow shortages, adverse economic conditions, and negative trends may result in a payment default in the near future.

Note 12 - Federal Income Taxes

The components of income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

	2012		2011

Current	$	2,853	$	2,537

A reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax at a rate of 34% to the income tax expense included in the statement of income for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 is as follows:

	2012		2011
	(In Thousands)
Federal income tax at statutory rate	$	2,709	$	2,458
Tax free interest		(490)		(396)
Other		6		22
	$	2,225	$	2,084

The Company follows guidance in ASC Topic 740 regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The Company has evaluated its tax positions. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that has a likelihood of being realized on examination of more than 50 percent. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Under the “more likely than not” threshold guidelines, the Company believes no significant uncertain tax positions exist, either individually or in the aggregate, that would give rise to the non-recognition of an existing tax benefit. As ofDecember 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had no material unrecognized tax benefits or accrued interest and penalties. The Company’s policy is to account for interest as a component of interest expense and penalties as a component of other expense. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax. Neither the Company nor the Bank is subject to examination by U.S. Federal taxing authorities for years before 2009.

Note 12 - Federal Income Taxes (Continued)

The components of the net deferred tax asset at December 31, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

	2012		2011
	(In Thousands)
Deferred tax assets:
Allowance for loan losses	$	1,669	$	1,329

Total Deferred Tax Liabilities	$	1,756	$	1,779
Net Deferred Tax Asset (Liability)	$	675	$	(8)

Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences.
