Basis of Presentation

The following is a description of the significant accounting and reporting policies that the Company and its subsidiaries follow in preparing and presenting their consolidated financial statements, which conform to GAAP and to general practices within the banking industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates that are particularly susceptible to change in the near term are used in connection with the determination of the allowances for loan losses and the evaluation of goodwill for impairment.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and other entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The Company currently has certain unconsolidated subsidiaries in the form of wholly-owned statutory business trusts, which were formed to issue guaranteed capital securities. See Note 7, Borrowed Funds, for additional information regarding these trusts.

Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Standards

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

The Company early adopted ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, effective January 1, 2018. ASU No. 2018-02 addresses a narrow-scope financial reporting issue that arose as a consequence of the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. ASU No. 2018-02 permits an election to reclassify from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to retained earnings the standard tax effects resulting from the difference between the historical federal corporate income tax rate of 35% and the newly enacted 21% federal corporate income tax rate. Effective January 1, 2018, the Company recorded a reclassification adjustment of $2.5 million decreasing AOCL and increasing retained earnings. The Company’s only components of AOCL are the fair value adjustment for securities available for sale and the tax effected related pension and post-retirement obligations.

The Company early adopted ASU No. 2017-12, Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, effective January 1, 2018. ASU No. 2017-12 changes the recognition and presentation requirements as well as the cost and complexity of applying hedge accounting by easing the requirements for effectiveness testing and hedge documentation. As the Company currently has no identified accounting hedges in place, adoption of ASU No. 2017-12 had no impact on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

The Company adopted ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718) as of January 1, 2018. The ASU’s amendments are applied prospectively to awards modified on or after the effective date. ASU No. 2017-09 clarifies when changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award should be accounted for as a modification. Modification accounting is applied only if the fair value, the vesting conditions, and the classification of the award (as an equity or liability instrument) change as a result of the change in terms or conditions. The adoption of ASU No. 2017-09 did not have an effect on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

The Company adopted ASU No. 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Post-retirement Benefit Cost, on January 1, 2018. ASU No. 2017-07 requires companies to present the service cost component of net benefit cost in the income statement line items where they report compensation cost, and all other components of net benefit cost in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside of operating income, if this subtotal is presented. Additionally, the service cost component will be the only component that can be capitalized. The standard requires retrospective application for the amendments related to the presentation of the service cost component and other components of net benefit cost, and prospective application for the amendments related to the capitalization requirements for the service cost components of net benefit cost. The adoption of ASU No. 2017-07 did not have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, on January 1, 2018, with retrospective application. ASU No. 2016-18 will require that the reconciliation of the beginning-of-period and end-of-period cash and cash equivalent amounts shown on the statement of cash flows include restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. If restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents are presented separately from cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet, entities are required to reconcile the amounts presented on the statement of cash flows to the amounts on the balance sheet. Entities will also be required to disclose information regarding the nature of the restrictions. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-18 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations, or cash flows.

The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments on January 1, 2018 with retrospective application. ASU No. 2016-15 addresses the following cash flow issues: debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing; contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies (including BOLI policies); distributions received from equity method investees; beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-15 did not have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment as of January 1, 2018. ASU No. 2016-01 provides targeted improvements to GAAP including, amongst other improvements, the requirement for equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, thus eliminating eligibility for the available-for-sale category. FHLB stock, however, is not in the scope of ASU No. 2016-01 and will continue to be presented at historical cost. Upon adoption, an immaterial amount of unrealized losses related to the in-scope equity securities was reclassified from other comprehensive loss to retained earnings and the reclassification of an equity investments from securities available for sale to other assets with its related market value changes reflected in earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2018. In addition, the fair value disclosures for financial instruments in Note 10 are computed using an exit price notion as required by ASU No. 2016-01.

The Company adopted ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and its amendments which established ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. In summary, the core principle of ASC Topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised 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’s revenue streams that are covered by ASC Topic 606 are primarily fees earned in connection with performing services for our customers such as investment advisor fees, wire transfer fees, and bounced check fees. Such fees are either satisfied over time if the service is performed over a period of time (as with investment advisor fees or safe deposit box rental fees), or satisfied at a point in time (as with wire transfer fees and bounced check fees). The Company recognizes fees for services performed over the time period to which the fees relate. The Company recognizes fees earned at a point in time on the day the fee is earned. The modified retrospective approach which includes presenting the cumulative effect of initial application, if any, along with supplementary disclosures, if any. The Company did not record a cumulative effect adjustment upon adoption of the standard.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-08, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities. ASU No. 2017-08 specifies that the premium amortization period ends at the earliest call date, rather than the contractual maturity date, for purchased non-contingently callable debt securities. Shortening the amortization period is generally expected to more closely align the interest income recognition with the expectations incorporated in the market pricing on the underlying securities. The shorter amortization period means that interest income would generally be lower in the periods before the earliest call date and higher thereafter (if the security is not called) compared to current GAAP. Currently, the premium is amortized to the contractual maturity date under GAAP. Because the premium will be amortized to the earliest call date, the holder will not recognize a loss in earnings for the unamortized premium when the call is exercised. This ASU No. 2017-08 is effective for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The ASU No. 2017-08 specifies that the transition approach to the standard be accounted for on a modified retrospective basis with a cumulative effect adjustment in retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company plans to adopt ASU No. 2017-08 effective January 1, 2019 and the adoption is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU No. 2017-04 eliminates the second step of the goodwill impairment test which requires an entity to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. Instead, an entity will recognize an impairment loss if the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, with the impairment loss not to exceed the amount of goodwill recorded. ASU No. 2017-04 does not amend the optional qualitative assessment of goodwill impairment. ASU No. 2017-04 is effective for annual and interim periods in 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 plans to adopt ASU No. 2017-04 prospectively beginning January 1, 2020 and the impact of its adoption on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Condition, results of operations, or cash flows will be dependent upon goodwill impairment determinations made after that date.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU No. 2016-13 amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held on an amortized cost basis and available-for-sale debt securities. For assets held at amortized cost, ASU No. 2016-13 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses. Current GAAP requires an “incurred loss” methodology for recognizing credit losses that delays recognition until it is probable a loss has been incurred. The amendments in ASU No. 2016-13 replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects the measurement of expected credit losses based on relevant information about past events, including historical loss experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amounts. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets to present the net amount expected to be collected. For available-for-sale debt securities, credit losses should be measured in a manner similar to current GAAP, however ASU No. 2016-13 will require that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. The amendments affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. For public business entities that are SEC filers, the amendments in ASU No. 2016-13 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years.

An entity will apply the amendments in ASU No. 2016-13 through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2020 (that is, a modified-retrospective approach). A prospective transition approach is required for debt securities for which an OTTI had been recognized before the effective date. The effect of a prospective transition approach is to maintain the same amortized cost basis before and after the effective date of ASU No. 2016-13. Amounts previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as of the date of adoption that relate to improvements in cash flows expected to be collected should continue to be accreted into income over the remaining life of the asset. Recoveries of amounts previously written off relating to improvements in cash flows after the date of adoption should be recorded in earnings when received. Financial assets for which the guidance in Subtopic 310-30, Receivables—Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality (PCD assets), has previously been applied should prospectively apply the guidance in ASU No. 2016-13 for PCD assets. A prospective transition approach should be used for PCD assets where upon adoption, the amortized cost basis should be adjusted to reflect the addition of the allowance for credit losses. This transition relief will avoid the need for a reporting entity to reassess its purchased financial assets that exist as of the date of adoption to determine whether they would have met at acquisition the new criteria of more-than insignificant credit deterioration since origination. The transition relief also will allow an entity to accrete the remaining noncredit discount (based on the revised amortized cost basis) into interest income at the effective interest rate at the adoption date of ASU No. 2016-13. The same transition requirements should be applied to beneficial interests that previously applied Subtopic 310-30 or have a significant difference between contractual cash flows and expected cash flows.

 

The Company is evaluating ASU No. 2016-13 and has initiated a working group with multiple members from applicable departments to evaluate the requirements of the new standard, planning for loss modeling requirements consistent with lifetime expected loss estimates, and assessing the impact it will have on current processes. This evaluation includes a review of existing credit models to identify areas where existing credit models used to comply with other regulatory requirements may be leveraged and areas where new models may be required. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 could have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Condition and results of operations. The extent of the impact upon adoption will likely depend on the characteristics of the Company’s loan portfolio and economic conditions at that date, as well as forecasted conditions thereafter.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” and the Company will adopt the ASU as of January 1, 2019. ASU No. 2016-02 is intended to improve financial reporting about leasing transactions and the key provision impacting the Company is the requirement for a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a liability, which represents the obligation to make lease payments for long-term operating leases. Additionally, the ASU includes quantitative and qualitative disclosures required by lessees and lessors to help financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. Lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The modified retrospective approach includes a number of optional practical expedients that entities may elect to apply. The Company’s working group, comprised of associates from disciplines such as Vendor Risk Management, Real Estate, Technology, and Accounting, have made substantial progress in reviewing contractual arrangements for embedded leases in an effort to identify the Company’s full lease population. To date, we have found only a few minor embedded leases in our non-lease contracts. We are presently evaluating all of our leases for compliance with the new lease accounting rules and as a lessor and lessee, we do not anticipate the classification of our leases to change. However, the Company’s assets and liabilities will increase by an immaterial amount based on the present value of remaining lease payments for leases in place at the adoption date. The Company is currently reviewing vendor software solutions to provide a robust lease accounting package that will accurately prepare the financial statement adjustments and enhanced disclosures required by ASU No. 2016-02.
