Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Bank and its subsidiary, 1039 NW 63^rd, LLC, which holds real estate utilized by the Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) 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 relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, valuation of other real estate owned, other-than-temporary impairments income taxes, goodwill and intangibles and fair values of financial instruments.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Interest-Bearing Time Deposits in Other Banks

Interest-bearing time deposits in other banks totaled $31.8 million and $30.2 million at December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and have original maturities generally ranging from one to five years.

Securities

Debt securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as “held-to-maturity” and recorded at amortized cost. Trading securities are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value included in earnings. Securities not classified as held-to-maturity or trading, including equity securities with readily determinable fair values, are classified as “available-for-sale” and recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income. Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method.

For debt securities with fair value below amortized cost when the Company does not intend to sell a debt security, and it is more likely than not the Company will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis, it recognizes 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 had no “available-for-sale” or held to maturity investments as of December 31, 2018 and 2017.

Loans

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoffs are reported at their outstanding principal balances adjusted for unearned income, charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, any unamortized deferred fees or costs on originated loans and unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans.

For loans amortized at cost, interest income is accrued based on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, as well as premiums and discounts, are deferred and amortized over the respective term of the loan.

The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days past due unless the credit is well-secured and in process of collection. Past-due status is based on contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.

All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off are reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale

Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or fair value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to noninterest income. Gains and losses on loan sales are recorded in noninterest income and direct loan origination costs and fees are deferred at origination of the loan and are recognized in noninterest income upon the sale of the loan.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to income. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectability of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay and estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of allocated and general components. The allocated component relates to loans that are classified as impaired. For those loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows or collateral value or observable market price of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers nonimpaired loans and is based on historical charge-off experience and expected loss given default derived from the Company’s internal risk rating process. Other adjustments may be made to the allowance for pools of loans after an assessment of internal or external influences on credit quality that are not fully reflected in the historical loss or risk rating data.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value 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. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent.

Groups of loans with similar risk characteristics are collectively evaluated for impairment based on the group’s historical loss experience adjusted for changes in trends, conditions and other relevant factors that affect repayment of the loans. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer loans for impairment measurements, unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement due to financial difficulties of the borrower.

Premises and Equipment

Depreciable assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is charged to expense using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are capitalized and depreciated using the straight-line method over the terms of the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

The estimated useful lives for each major depreciable classification of premises and equipment are as follows:

Buildings and improvements	15–30 years
Furniture and equipment	5–10 years
Aircraft	5-7 years
Automobiles	3–5 years

Non-Marketable Equity Securities

Non-marketable equity securities consist primarily of Federal Home Loan Bank of Topeka (FHLB) stock and Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City stock and are required investments for financial institutions that are members of the FHLB and Federal Reserve systems. The required investment in common stock is based on a predetermined formula, carried at cost and evaluated for impairment.

Long-Lived Asset Impairment

The Company evaluates the recoverability of the carrying value of long-lived assets whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If a long-lived asset is tested for recoverability and the undiscounted estimated future cash flows is expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the asset cost is adjusted to fair value and an impairment loss is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount of a long-lived asset exceeds its fair value.

No asset impairment was recognized during the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017, and 2016.

Foreclosed Assets Held for Sale

Foreclosed assets held for sale consist of assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure and are initially recorded at fair value, less cost to sell at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount of fair value less costs to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in current operations.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is tested annually for impairment. If the implied fair value of goodwill is lower than its carrying amount, a goodwill impairment is indicated and goodwill is written down to its implied fair value. Subsequent increases in goodwill value are not recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Other intangible assets consist of core deposit intangible assets and are amortized on a straight-line basis based on an estimated useful life of 10 years. Such assets are periodically evaluated as to the recoverability of their carrying values.

Segments

While the chief decision-makers monitor the revenue streams of the various products and services, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Discrete financial information is not available other than on a Company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the financial service operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment.

Income Taxes

Prior to September 24, 2018, the Company had elected to be taxed as an S Corporation for federal and state income tax purposes. As such, stockholders were taxed on their pro rata share of earnings and deductions of the Company, regardless of the amount of distributions received. Generally, the Company was not subject to federal income tax. Effective September 24, 2018, the Company converted from an S Corporation to a C Corporation and is subject to federal and state taxes at that date.

The Company uses a comprehensive model for recognizing, measuring, presenting, and disclosing in the financial statements tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. 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 is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded.

The Company recognizes interest accrued and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in tax expense. During the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized no interest and penalties.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The ASU supersedes and replaces nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance, and establishes a new principles-based revenue recognition model for revenue from contracts with customers. The revenue line items in scope of this ASU have been identified and final assessment is pending; however, the majority of the Company’s revenues are not within the scope of Topic 606. Significant revenue streams within the scope of Topic 606 include service charges on deposits. The guidance in the ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. It is expected that that the implementation of this ASU will not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company will adopt this ASU for the annual reporting period ending December 31, 2019.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The ASU requires certain equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes recognized in net income. It also requires the use of the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purpose and eliminates the requirement to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. The guidance in the ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. It is expected that that the implementation of this ASU will not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company will adopt this ASU in the first quarter of 2019.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The ASU requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases, excluding short-term leases, at the commencement date. The guidance in the ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Additionally, a modified retrospective transition approach is required for leases existing at the earliest comparative period presented. Management is assessing the impact of this ASU; however, it is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operation, or capital position, but will impact the presentation on the balance sheet for the Company’s current operating leases. The Company will adopt this ASU in the first quarter of 2020.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share- Based Payment Accounting.” Under ASU 2016-09 all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies related to share-based payment awards should be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement during the period in which they occur. Previously, such amounts were recorded in the pool of excess tax benefits included in additional paid-in capital, if such pool was available. Because excess tax benefits are no longer recognized in additional paid-in capital, the assumed proceeds from applying the treasury stock method when computing earnings per share should exclude the amount of excess tax benefits that would have previously been recognized in additional paid-in capital. Additionally, excess tax benefits should be classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity rather than a financing activity, as was previously the case. ASU 2016-09 also provides that an entity can make an entity-wide accounting policy election to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest (current GAAP) or account for forfeitures when they occur. The Company elected to account for forfeitures as they occur. ASU 2016-09 changes the threshold to qualify for equity classification (rather than as a liability) to permit withholding up to the maximum statutory tax rates (rather than the minimum as was previously the case) in the applicable jurisdictions. ASU 2016-09 was adopted on September 5, 2018, in conjunction with the Board’s approval of the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326). The ASU requires the replacement of the current incurred loss model with an expected loss model, referred to as the current expected credit loss (CECL) model. The guidance in the ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings required for the first reporting period in which the amendments are effective. Management is still assessing the impact of this ASU; however, it is expected that it will not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations as this modifies the calculation of the allowance by accelerating the recognition of losses. The Company will adopt this ASU in the first quarter of 2022.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The ASU amends existing guidance to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The guidance in the ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021 with prospective application. Management is still assessing the impact of this ASU; however, it is expected that it will not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company will adopt this ASU in the first quarter of 2022.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820).” ASU 2018-13 removes, modifies and adds disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. In addition, early adoption of any removed or modified disclosures and delayed adoption of the additional disclosures until the effective date is also permitted. It is expected that adoption will not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company will adopt this ASU in the first quarter of 2020.
