NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION, NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations

CBTX, Inc., or the Company, was formed on January 26, 2007, and through its subsidiary, CommunityBank of Texas, N.A., or the Bank, operates 33 locations in the Houston and Beaumont/East Texas market areas. The Company’s primary sources of revenue are from investing funds received from depositors and from providing loan and other financial services to its customers. The Bank operates under a national charter and therefore is subject to regulation by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, or OCC and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC. The Company is subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve Board.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP, but do not include all the information and footnotes required for complete consolidated financial statements. In management’s opinion, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial position at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, consolidated shareholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 and consolidated cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year end and the results for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year due in part to global economic and financial market conditions, interest rates, access to sources of liquidity, market competition and interruptions of business processes. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2017 included within our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Accounting Standards Recently Adopted

Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, 2014‑09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): ASU 2014‑09 requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted ASU 2014-09 effective January 1, 2018 with no significant impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements as the Company’s revenue is primarily comprised of net interest income on financial assets and financial liabilities, which is explicitly excluded from the scope of ASU 2014‑09 and noninterest income. The Company’s revenue recognition for revenue streams within the scope of ASU 2014-09, including but not limited to service charges on deposits accounts, did not materially change from previous practice.

ASU, 2016‑01, Financial Instruments‑Overall (Subtopic 825‑10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The amendments in this update address certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. ASU 2016‑01, among other things, (i) requires equity investments, with certain exceptions, to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, (ii) simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment, (iii) eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet, (iv) clarifies that entities use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of loans for disclosure purposes and not use a practicability exception, (v) requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument‑specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments, (vi) requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements and (vii) clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available‑for‑sale investments. ASU 2018-03, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10) clarifies certain aspects of ASU 2016-01. The Company implemented ASU 2016-01 and ASU 2018-03 effective January 1, 2018 with no significant impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. See Note 12 – Fair Value Disclosures.

ASU 2016‑15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016‑15 provides guidance related to certain cash flow issues in order to reduce the current and potential future diversity in practice. The Company implemented ASU 2016‑15 effective January 1, 2018. The Company has elected to use the nature of distribution approach to determine the nature of distribution approach to determine whether income received from equity investments is operating or investing on the cash flow statement. Based on the nature of previous income streams from our equity investments, we expect these amounts will continue to be reported in cash provided by operating activities on the cash flow statement and the other items in ASU 2016-15 will be considered if such items arise.

ASU 2016‑16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra‑Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. ASU 2016‑16 provides guidance stating that an entity should recognize the income tax consequences of an intra‑entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. The Company implemented ASU 2016‑16 effective January 1, 2018. As we have not historically transferred assets between entities, we expect no impact on the consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2016‑18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. ASU 2016‑18 requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning‑of‑period and end‑of‑period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The Company implemented ASU 2016‑18 effective January 1, 2018. The only cash the Company has considered to be restricted is the amount of our Federal Bank reserves, which we had already included in cash and equivalents in the consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2017‑01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. ASU 2017‑01 clarifies the definition and provides a more robust framework to use in determining when a set of assets and activities constitutes a business. ASU 2017‑01 is intended to provide guidance when evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The Company implemented ASU 2017‑01 effective January 1, 2018 and will follow this guidance for any future acquisitions or dispositions.

ASU 2017‑09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): ASU 2017-09 provides guidance about which changes in terms or conditions of a share‑based award require application of modification accounting. The Company implemented ASU 2017‑09 effective January 1, 2018 and will follow this guidance for any future modifications of share-based awards.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

ASU 2016‑02, Leases (Topic 842): ASU 2016‑02 will, among other things, require lessees to recognize a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis and a right‑of‑use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASU 2016‑02 does not significantly change lease accounting requirements applicable to lessors. Certain changes were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” ASU 2016‑02 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2019 and will require transition using a modified retrospective approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2016‑02 on the consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2016‑13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016‑13 requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts and requires enhanced disclosures related to the significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an organization’s portfolio. In addition, ASU 2016‑13 amends the accounting for credit losses on available‑for‑sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. ASU 2016‑13 will be effective on January 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2016‑13 on the consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2017‑04, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In addition, the amendment eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. For public companies, ASU 2017‑04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this pronouncement.

Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenue from contracts with customers in accordance with ASU 2014-09, as applicable. A majority of the Company’s revenue-generating transactions are not subject to ASU 2014-09, such as interest and fees on loans, income from debt securities, income from federal funds and interest-bearing deposits. Our revenue-generating activities that are within the scope of ASU 2014-09, are included in our condensed consolidated income statements in noninterest income. See table below. The Company generally fully satisfies its performance obligations on its contracts with customers as services are rendered and the transaction prices are typically fixed and charged either on a periodic basis or based on activity.


	Three Months Ended March 31,
(Dollars in thousands)	2018		2017
Deposit account service charges	$	1,478	$	1,500
Net gain on sale of assets		130		364
Card interchange fees		927		832

Deposit account service charges—– this is comprised of fees from our customers for deposit related services, such as monthly account maintenance and activity or transaction-based fees. Revenue is recognized when our performance obligation is completed which is generally monthly for account maintenance services or when a transaction is completed. Payment for such performance obligations are generally received at the time the performance obligation is satisfied.

Net gain on sale of assets—– this is comprised of gains on sales of fixed assets, gains on sales of loans and gains on sales of other real estate owned, or OREO. Gains on sales of loans are excluded from ASU 2014-09. The performance obligation in the sale of OREO or fixed assets is delivery of control over the property to the buyer. The Company does not typically provide financing and the transaction price is identified in the purchase and sale agreement. If the Company provides financing, the Company must determine a transaction price depending on if the sales contract is at market terms and taking into account the credit risk inherent in the sale agreement.

Card interchange fees—– this is comprised of fees generated from debit card transactions. Revenue is recognized when our performance obligation is completed generally when a transaction is completed. Payment for such performance obligations are generally received at the time the performance obligation is satisfied.

Cash Flow Reporting

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash include cash, interest‑bearing and noninterest‑bearing transaction accounts with other banks and federal funds sold. The Bank is required to maintain regulatory reserves with the Federal Reserve Bank. The reserve requirements for the Bank were approximately $15.6 million and $15.8 million at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively and cash and due from banks balances were restricted to that extent.
