Credit Quality Indicators –

The following table represents the credit exposure by internally assigned grades at

December 31, 2019

and

2018.

This grading analysis estimates the capability of the borrower to repay the contractual obligations of the loan agreements in accordance with the loan terms. The Bank’s internal credit risk grading system is based on management’s experiences with similarly graded loans. Credit risk grades are reassessed each quarter based on any recent developments potentially impacting the creditworthiness of the borrower, as well as other external statistics and factors, which

may

affect the risk characteristics of the respective loan.

The Bank’s internally assigned grades are as follows:

Pass

– Strong credit with

no

existing or known potential weaknesses deserving of management’s close attention.

Special Mention

– Potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. Borrower and guarantor’s capacity to meet all financial obligations is marginally adequate or deteriorating.

Substandard

– Inadequately protected by the paying capacity of the Borrower and/or collateral pledged. The borrower or guarantor is unwilling or unable to meet loan terms or loan covenants for the foreseeable future.

Doubtful

– All the weakness inherent in

one

classified as substandard with the added characteristic that those weaknesses in place make the collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of current conditions, highly questionable and improbable.

Loss

– Considered uncollectible or

no

longer a bankable asset. This classification does

not

mean that the asset has absolutely

no

recoverable value. In fact, a certain salvage value is inherent in these loans. Nevertheless, it is

not

practical or desirable to defer writing off a portion or whole of a perceived asset even though partial recovery

may

be collected in the future.

Impaired Loans –

The following tables include the recorded investment and unpaid principal balances, net of charge-offs for impaired loans with the associated allowance amount, if applicable. Management determined the allocated allowance based on the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, except when the remaining source of repayment for the loan is the operation or liquidation of the collateral. In those cases, the current fair value of the collateral, less selling costs was used to determine the allocated allowance recorded.

During the years ended

December 31, 2019

and

2018,

no

interest income was recognized on these loans while in nonaccrual status as interest collected was credited to loan principal. We recognized

$10,000

of income in

2019

and

$4,000

in

2018

prior to the loans being placed on non-accrual.

Certain loans within the Company’s loan and ORE portfolios are guaranteed by the Veterans Administration (VA). In the event of default by the borrower, the VA can elect to pay the guaranteed amount or take possession of the property. If the VA takes possession of the property, the Company is entitled to be reimbursed for the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and certain other expenses. There were

no

commitments from the VA to take title to foreclosed VA properties at

December 31, 2019

and

2018.

Troubled Debt

Restructurings

– Restructured loans are considered “troubled debt restructurings” if due to the borrower’s financial difficulties, the Bank has granted a concession that they would

not

otherwise consider. This

may

include a transfer of real estate or other assets from the borrower, a modification of loan terms, rates, or a combination of the two. All troubled debt restructurings placed on nonaccrual status must show

no

less than

six

months of repayment performance by the borrower in accordance with contractual terms to return to accrual status. Once a loan has been identified as a troubled debt restructuring, it will continue to be reported as such until the loan is paid in full.

In the normal course of business, the Company

may

modify a loan for a credit worthy borrower where the modified loan is

not

considered a troubled debt restructuring. In these cases, the modified terms are consistent with loan terms available to credit worthy borrowers and within normal loan pricing. The modifications to such loans are done according to existing underwriting standards which include review of historical financial statements, including current interim information if available, an analysis of the causes of the borrower’s decline in performance, and projections intended to assess repayment ability going forward.

There was

one

troubled debt restructuring with a principal balance of less than

$75,000

 as of

December 31, 2019

and

December 31, 2018.
