Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization	Organization. Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc., a Missouri corporation (the Company) was organized in 1994 and is the parent company of Southern Bank (the Bank). Substantially all of the Company’s consolidated revenues are derived from the operations of the Bank, and the Bank represents substantially all of the Company’s consolidated assets and liabilities. SB Real Estate Investments, LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank formed to hold Southern Bank Real Estate Investments, LLC. Southern Bank Real Estate Investments, LLC is a real estate investment trust (REIT) which is controlled by the investment subsidiary, and has other preferred shareholders in order to meet the requirements to be a REIT. At June 30, 2020, assets of the REIT were approximately $751 million, and consisted primarily of loan participations acquired from the Bank. The Bank is primarily engaged in providing a full range of banking and financial services to individuals and corporate customers in its market areas. The Bank and Company are subject to competition from other financial institutions. The Bank and Company are subject to the regulation of certain federal and state agencies and undergo periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation	Basis of Financial Statement Presentation. The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and general practices within the banking industry. In the normal course of business, the Company encounters two significant types of risk: economic and regulatory. Economic risk is comprised of interest rate risk, credit risk, and market risk. The Company is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its interest-bearing liabilities reprice on a different basis than its interest-earning assets. Credit risk is the risk of default on the Company’s investment or loan portfolios resulting from the borrowers’ inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk reflects changes in the value of the investment portfolio, collateral underlying loans receivable, and the value of the Company’s investments in real estate.
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, the Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates. The preparation of consolidated 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 disclosures 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, and estimated fair values of purchased loans.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents. For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash, due from depository institutions and interest-bearing deposits in other depository institutions with original maturities of three months or less. Interest-bearing deposits in other depository institutions were $6.9 million and $6.9 million at June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The deposits are held in various commercial banks with a total of $319,000 exceeding the FDIC’s deposit insurance limits, as well as at the Federal Reserve and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines and Chicago.
Interest-bearing Time Deposits	Interest-bearing Time Deposits. Interest-bearing deposits in banks mature within seven years and are carried at cost.
Available for Sale Securities	Available for Sale Securities. Available for sale securities, which include any security for which the Company has no immediate plan to sell but which may be sold in the future, are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders’ equity. All securities have been classified as available for sale. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized or accreted as adjustments to income over the estimated life of the security using the level yield method. Realized gains or losses on the sale of securities is based on the specific identification method. The fair value of securities is based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities. The Company does not invest in collateralized mortgage obligations that are considered high risk. 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, the Company recognizes the credit component of an OTTI of a debt security in earnings and the remaining portion in other comprehensive income (loss). As a result of this guidance, the Company’s consolidated balance sheets for the dates presented reflect the full impairment (that is, the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and fair value) on debt securities that the Company intends to sell or would more likely than not be required to sell before the expected recovery of the amortized cost basis. For available-for-sale debt securities that management has no intent to sell and believes that it more likely than not will not be required to sell prior to recovery, only the credit loss component of the impairment is recognized in earnings, while the noncredit loss is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The credit loss component recognized in earnings is identified as the amount of principal cash flows not expected to be received over the remaining term of the security as projected based on cash flow projections.
Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank Stock	Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank Stock. The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve and the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) systems. Capital stock of the Federal Reserve and the FHLB is a required investment based upon a predetermined formula and is carried at cost.
Loans	Loans. Loans are generally stated at unpaid principal balances, less the allowance for loan losses, any net deferred loan origination fees, and unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans. Interest on loans is accrued based upon the principal amount outstanding. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when, in management’s judgment, the collectability of interest or principal in the normal course of business is doubtful. The Company complies with regulatory guidance which indicates that loans should be placed in nonaccrual status when 90 days past due, unless the loan is both well-secured and in the process of collection. A loan that is “in the process of collection” may be subject to legal action or, in appropriate circumstances, through other collection efforts reasonably expected to result in repayment or restoration to current status in the near future. A loan is considered delinquent when a payment has not been made by the contractual due date. At June 30, 2020, some loans were modified under the terms of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act), which provides that loans modified after March 1, 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and which were otherwise current at December 31, 2019, need not be accounted for as troubled debt restructurings (TDRs). While these loans may not have met the contractual due dates of payments under their previous terms, so long as they were compliant with the terms of the modification made under the CARES Act, they would not have been reported as delinquent at June 30, 2020. See further disclosure in Note 3: Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses. Interest income previously accrued but not collected at the date a loan is placed on nonaccrual status is reversed against interest income. Cash receipts on a nonaccrual loan are applied to principal and interest in accordance with its contractual terms unless full payment of principal is not expected, in which case cash receipts, whether designated as principal or interest, are applied as a reduction of the carrying value of the loan. A nonaccrual loan is generally returned to accrual status when principal and interest payments are current, full collectability of principal and interest is reasonably assured, and a consistent record of performance has been demonstrated. The allowance for losses on loans represents management’s best estimate of losses probable in the existing loan portfolio. The allowance for losses on loans is increased by the provision for losses on loans charged to expense and reduced by loans charged off, net of recoveries. Loans are charged off in the period deemed uncollectible, based on management’s analysis of expected cash flows (for non-collateral dependent loans) or collateral value (for collateral-dependent loans). Subsequent recoveries of loans previously charged off, if any, are credited to the allowance when received. The provision for losses on loans is determined based on management’s assessment of several factors: reviews and evaluations of specific loans, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and the related impact on specific borrowers and industry groups, historical loan loss experience, the level of classified and nonperforming loans, and the results of regulatory examinations. Loans are considered impaired if, 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. Depending on a particular loan’s circumstances, the Company measures impairment of a loan based upon either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell if the loan is collateral dependent. Valuation allowances are established for collateral-dependent impaired loans for the difference between the loan amount and fair value of collateral less estimated selling costs. For impaired loans that are not collateral dependent, a valuation allowance is established for the difference between the loan amount and the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the historical effective interest rate or the observable market price of the loan. Impairment losses are recognized through an increase in the required allowance for loan losses. Cash receipts on loans deemed impaired are recorded based on the loan’s separate status as a nonaccrual loan or an accrual status loan. Some loans are accounted for in accordance with ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. For these loans (“purchased credit impaired loans”), the Company recorded a fair value discount and began carrying them at book value less their face amount (see Note 4). For these loans, we determined the contractual amount and timing of undiscounted principal and interest payments (the “undiscounted contractual cash flows”), and estimated the amount and timing of undiscounted expected principal and interest payments, including expected prepayments (the “undiscounted expected cash flows”). Under acquired impaired loan accounting, the difference between the undiscounted contractual cash flows and the undiscounted expected cash flows is the nonaccretable difference. The nonaccretable difference is an estimate of the loss exposure of principal and interest related to the purchased credit impaired loans, and the amount is subject to change over time based on the performance of the loans. The carrying value of purchased credit impaired loans is initially determined as the discounted expected cash flows. The excess of expected cash flows at acquisition over the initial fair value of the purchased credit impaired loans is referred to as the “accretable yield” and is recorded as interest income over the estimated life of the acquired loans using the level-yield method, if the timing and amount of the future cash flows is reasonably estimable. The carrying value of purchased credit impaired loans is reduced by payments received, both principal and interest, and increased by the portion of the accretable yield recognized as interest income. Subsequent to acquisition, the Company evaluates the purchased credit impaired loans on a quarterly basis. Increases in expected cash flows compared to those previously estimated increase the accretable yield and are recognized as interest income prospectively. Decreases in expected cash flows compared to those previously estimated decrease the accretable yield and may result in the establishment of an allowance for loan losses and a provision for loan losses. Purchased credit impaired loans are generally considered accruing and performing loans, as the loans accrete interest income over the estimated life of the loan when expected cash flows are reasonably estimable. Accordingly, purchased credit impaired loans that are contractually past due are still considered to be accruing and performing as long as there is an expectation that the estimated cash flows will be received. If the timing and amount of cash flows is not reasonably estimable, the loans may be classified as nonaccrual loans. Loan fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred, and the net fee or cost is recognized as an adjustment to interest income using the interest method over the contractual life of the loans.
Foreclosed Real Estate	Foreclosed Real Estate. Real estate acquired by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is initially recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs, establishing a new cost basis. Costs for development and improvement of the property are capitalized. Valuations are periodically performed by management, and an allowance for losses is established by a charge to operations if the carrying value of a property exceeds its estimated fair value, less estimated selling costs. Loans to facilitate the sale of real estate acquired in foreclosure are discounted if made at less than market rates. Discounts are amortized over the fixed interest period of each loan using the interest method.
Premises and Equipment	Premises and Equipment. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and include expenditures for major betterments and renewals. Maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. When property is retired or sold, the retired asset and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss taken into income. The Company reviews property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment loss recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the assets. Depreciation is computed by use of straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated lives are generally seven to forty years for premises, three to seven years for equipment, and three years for software.
Bank Owned Life Insurance	Bank Owned Life Insurance. Bank owned life insurance policies are reflected in the consolidated balance sheets at the estimated cash surrender value. Changes in the cash surrender value of these policies, as well as a portion of the insurance proceeds received, are recorded in noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income.
Intangible Assets	Intangible Assets. The Company’s intangible assets at June 30, 2020 included gross core deposit intangibles of $15.3 million with $8.7 million accumulated amortization, gross other identifiable intangibles of $3.8 million with accumulated amortization of $3.8 million, and mortgage servicing rights of $1.1 million. At June 30, 2019, the Company’s intangible assets included gross core deposit intangibles of $14.7 million with $6.9 million accumulated amortization, gross other identifiable intangibles of $3.8 million with accumulated amortization of $3.8 million, and mortgage servicing rights of $1.4 million. The Company’s core deposit intangible assets are being amortized using the straight line method, over periods ranging from five to seven years, with amortization expense expected to be approximately $1.4 million in fiscal 2021, $1.4 million in fiscal 2022, $1.4 million in fiscal 2023, $1.4 million in fiscal 2024, $807,000 in fiscal 2025, and $328,000 thereafter. As of June 30, 2020, and June 30, 2019, there was no impairment indicated.
Goodwill	Goodwill. The Company’s goodwill is evaluated annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators are present. A qualitative assessment is performed to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not the fair value is less than the carrying amount, including goodwill. If, based on the evaluation, it is determined to be more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying value, then goodwill is tested further 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 financial statements. As of June 30, 2020, and June 30, 2019, there was no impairment indicated, based on a qualitative assessment of goodwill, which considered: the decline in the market value of the Company’s common stock, relative to peers; concentrations of credit; profitability; nonperforming assets; capital levels; and results of recent regulatory examinations.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes. The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with income tax accounting guidance (ASC 740, Income Taxes). The 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 the taxable income or excess of deductions over revenues. The Company determines deferred income taxes using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur. Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred tax assets are recognized if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term more likely than not means a likelihood of more than 50 percent; the terms examined and upon examination also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date and is subject to the management’s judgment. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company recognizes interest and penalties on income taxes as a component of income tax expense. The Company files consolidated income tax returns with its subsidiary.
Incentive Plan	Incentive Plans. The Company accounts for its Management and Recognition Plan (MRP), Equity Incentive Plan (EIP), and Omnibus Incentive Plan (OIP) in accordance with ASC 718, “Share-Based Payment.” Compensation expense is based on the market price of the Company’s stock on the date the shares are granted and is recorded over the vesting period. The difference between the grant-date fair value and the fair value on the date the shares are considered earned represents a tax benefit to the Company that is recorded as an adjustment to income tax expense.
Outside Directors' Retirement	Outside Directors’ Retirement. The Bank adopted a directors’ retirement plan in April 1994 for outside directors. The directors’ retirement plan provides that each non-employee director (participant) shall receive, upon termination of service on the Board on or after age 60, other than termination for cause, a benefit in equal annual installments over a five year period. The benefit will be based upon the product of the participant’s vesting percentage and the total Board fees paid to the participant during the calendar year preceding termination of service on the Board. The vesting percentage shall be determined based upon the participant’s years of service on the Board, whether before or after the reorganization date. In the event that the participant dies before collecting any or all of the benefits, the Bank shall pay the participant’s beneficiary. No benefits shall be payable to anyone other than the beneficiary, and shall terminate on the death of the beneficiary.
Stock Options	Stock Options. Compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued, and recognized over the vesting period during which an employee provides service in exchange for the award.
Earnings Per Share	Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share available to common stockholders is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share available to common stockholders includes the effect of all weighted-average dilutive potential common shares (stock options) outstanding during each year.
Comprehensive Income	Comprehensive Income. Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income, net of applicable income taxes. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on available-for-sale securities, unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on available-for-sale securities for which a portion of an other-than-temporary impairment has been recognized in income, and changes in the funded status of defined benefit pension plans.
Transfers Between Fair Value Hierarchy Levels	Transfers Between Fair Value Hierarchy Levels. Transfers in and out of Level 1 (quoted market prices), Level 2 (other significant observable inputs) and Level 3 (significant unobservable inputs) are recognized on the period ending date.
Revisions	Revisions. Certain immaterial revisions have been made to the 2019 and 2018 consolidated financial statements for netting interchange expenses with interchange revenues to apply the recognition on an agency versus principal basis. These revisions did not have a significant impact on the financial statement line items impacted. have been reclassified to conform to the 2020 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income or retained earnings.
New Accounting Pronouncements	The following paragraphs summarize the impact of new accounting pronouncements: In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) - Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820. The amendments in this update remove disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, modify/clarify the specific requirements of certain disclosures, and add disclosure requirements identified as relevant. ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for certain removed and modified disclosures, and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326). The Update amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available for sale debt securities. For assets held at amortized cost basis, Topic 326 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses. The Update affects loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off balance sheet credit exposures, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. For public companies, the ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is available beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption will be applied on a modified retrospective basis, through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. The Company formed a working group of key personnel responsible for the allowance for loan losses estimate and initiated its evaluation of the data and systems requirements of adoption of the Update. The group determined that purchasing third party software would be the most effective method to comply with the requirements, evaluated several outside vendors, and made a vendor recommendation that was approved by the Board. Model validation and data testing using existing ALLL methodology have been completed. Parallel testing of the new methodology compared to the current methodology has been ongoing in the second half of fiscal year 2020. We expect to recognize a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for loan losses as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the new standard is effective, which for the Company will be the three-month period ending September 30, 2020. Based on its initial analysis, the Company estimates that the allowance for credit losses (ACL) will increase by 27 to 35 percent as compared to the June 30, 2020, allowance for loan losses. This would result in an ACL of approximately 1.48% to 1.57% of gross loans upon adoption in the first quarter of fiscal 2021. This estimate is based upon the Company’s current analysis of economic conditions and forecasts, and the estimate is subject to change based on continuing review and challenge of the model and our methodologies and judgments as we work to finalize implementation. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 in fiscal 2021 could also impact the Company’s future earnings, perhaps materially. In March 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act) was signed into law, providing banking organizations required to adopt ASU 2016-13 during calendar year 2020 temporary relief from compliance with the standard until the earlier of the termination date of the national emergency declared by the President on March 13, 2020, concerning the COVID-19 pandemic (the National Emergency), or December 31, 2020. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases,” to revise the accounting related to lease accounting. Under the new guidance, a lessee is required to record a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. The Update was effective for the Company July 1, 2019. Adoption of the standard allows the use of a modified retrospective transition approach for all periods presented at the time of adoption. Based on the Company’s leases outstanding at June 30, 2020, which included five leased properties and numerous office equipment leases, the adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial condition or consolidated statements of income, although an increase to assets and liabilities occurred at the time of adoption. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company recognized a ROU asset and corresponding lease liability for all leases of approximately $2.0 million based on the lease portfolio at that time. The Company’s new leases, lease terminations, and lease modifications and renewals will impact the amount of ROU asset and corresponding lease liability recognized. The Company’s leases are all currently “operating leases” as defined in the Update; therefore, no material change in the income statement presentation of lease expense is anticipated. In March 2020, the CARES Act was signed into law, creating a forbearance program for federally backed mortgage loans, protects borrowers from negative credit reporting due to loan accommodations related to the National Emergency, and provides financial institutions the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under U.S. GAAP related to troubled debt restructurings (TDR) for a limited period of time to account for the effects of COVID-19. The Company has elected to not apply ASC Subtopic 310-40 for loans eligible under the CARES Act, based on the modification’s (1) relation to COVID-19, (2) execution for a loan that was not more than 30-days past due as of December 31, 2019, and (3) executed between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of the date that falls 60 days following the termination of the declared National Emergency, or December 31, 2020.
Repurchase Agreements	The carrying value of investment and mortgage-backed securities pledged as collateral to secure public deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase amounted to $156.1 million and $143.7 million at June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The securities pledged consist of marketable securities, including $0 and $5.6 million of U.S. Government and Federal Agency Obligations, $82.0 million and $47.3 million of Mortgage-Backed Securities, $41.9 million and $55.7 million of Collateralized Mortgage Obligations, $32.0 million and $34.9 million of State and Political Subdivisions Obligations, and $200,000 and $300,000 of Other Securities at June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Other securities	Other securities. At June 30, 2020, there were two pooled trust preferred securities with an estimated fair value of $643,000 and unrealized losses of $333,000 in a continuous unrealized loss position for twelve months or more. These unrealized losses were primarily due to the long-term nature of the pooled trust preferred securities and a reduced demand for these securities, and concerns regarding the financial institutions that issued the underlying trust preferred securities. The June 30, 2020, cash flow analysis for these two securities indicated it is probable the Company will receive all contracted principal and related interest projected. The cash flow analysis used in making this determination was based on anticipated default, recovery, and prepayment rates, and the resulting cash flows were discounted based on the yield spread anticipated at the time the securities were purchased. Other inputs include the actual collateral attributes, which include credit ratings and other performance indicators of the underlying financial institutions, including profitability, capital ratios, and asset quality. Assumptions for these two securities included prepayments averaging 1.6 percent, annually, annual defaults averaging 50 basis points, and a recovery rate averaging 10 percent of gross defaults, lagged two years. One of these two securities has continued to receive cash interest payments in full since initial purchase; the other security received principal-in-kind (PIK), in lieu of cash interest, for a period of time following the recession and financial crisis which began in 2008, but resumed cash interest payments during fiscal 2014. Our cash flow analysis indicates that cash interest payments are expected to continue for the securities. Because the Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is not more-likely-than-not that the Company will be required to sell these securities prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2020. The Company does not believe any other individual unrealized loss as of June 30, 2020, represents OTTI. However, the Company could be required to recognize OTTI losses in future periods with respect to its available for sale investment securities portfolio. The amount and timing of any required OTTI will depend on the decline in the underlying cash flows of the securities. Should the impairment of any of these securities become other-than-temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the resulting loss recognized in the period the OTTI is identified.
Credit losses recognized on investments	Credit losses recognized on investments. During fiscal 2009, the Company adopted ASC 820, formerly FASB Staff Position 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly.” There were no trust preferred securities for which only a credit loss was recognized in income and other losses are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) for the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
Residential Mortgage Lending	Residential Mortgage Lending. The Company actively originates loans for the acquisition or refinance of one- to four-family residences. This category includes both fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage (“ARM”) loans amortizing over periods of up to 30 years, and the properties securing such loans may be owner-occupied or non-owner-occupied. Single-family residential loans do not generally exceed 90% of the lower of the appraised value or purchase price of the secured property. Substantially all of the one- to four-family residential mortgage originations in the Company’s portfolio are located within the Company’s primary lending area. The Company also originates loans secured by multi-family residential properties that are often located outside the Company’s primary lending area but made to borrowers who operate within our primary market area. The majority of the multi-family residential loans that are originated by the Bank are amortized over periods generally up to 25 years, with balloon maturities typically up to ten years. Both fixed and adjustable interest rates are offered and it is typical for the Company to include an interest rate “floor” and “ceiling” in the loan agreement. Generally, multi-family residential loans do not exceed 85% of the lower of the appraised value or purchase price of the secured property.
Commercial Real Estate Lending	Commercial Real Estate Lending. The Company actively originates loans secured by commercial real estate including farmland, single- and multi-tenant retail properties, restaurants, hotels, land (improved and unimproved), nursing homes and other healthcare-related facilities, warehouses and distribution centers, convenience stores, automobile dealerships and other automotive-related services, and other businesses. These properties are typically owned and operated by borrowers headquartered within the Company’s primary lending area, however, the property may be located outside our primary lending area. Approximately $281.4 million of the Company’s $887.4 million in commercial real estate loans are secured by properties located outside our primary lending area. Most commercial real estate loans originated by the Company generally are based on amortization schedules of up to 25 years with monthly principal and interest payments. Generally, the interest rate received on these loans is fixed for a maturity for up to ten years, with a balloon payment due at maturity. Alternatively, for some loans, the interest rate adjusts at least annually after an initial period up to seven years. The Company typically includes an interest rate “floor” in the loan agreement. Generally, improved commercial real estate loan amounts do not exceed 80% of the lower of the appraised value or the purchase price of the secured property. Agricultural real estate terms offered differ slightly, with amortization schedules of up to 25 years with an 80% loan-to-value ratio, or 30 years with a 75% loan-to-value ratio.
Construction Lending	Construction Lending. The Company originates real estate loans secured by property or land that is under construction or development. Construction loans originated by the Company are generally secured by mortgage loans for the construction of owner occupied residential real estate or to finance speculative construction secured by residential real estate, land development, or owner-operated or non-owner occupied commercial real estate. During construction, these loans typically require monthly interest-only payments, with single-family residential construction loans having maturities ranging from six to twelve months, while multifamily or commercial construction loans typically mature in 12 to 24 months. Once construction is completed, permanent construction loans may be converted to monthly payments using amortization schedules of up to 30 years on residential and generally up to 25 years on commercial real estate. While the Company typically utilizes relatively short maturity periods to closely monitor the inherent risks associated with construction loans for these loans, weather conditions, change orders, availability of materials and/or labor, and other factors may contribute to the lengthening of a project, thus necessitating the need to renew the construction loan at the balloon maturity. Such extensions are typically executed in incremental three month periods to facilitate project completion. The Company’s average term of construction loans is approximately eight months. During construction, loans typically require monthly interest only payments which may allow the Company an opportunity to monitor for early signs of financial difficulty should the borrower fail to make a required monthly payment. Additionally, during the construction phase, the Company typically performs interim inspections which further allow the Company opportunity to assess risk. At June 30, 2020, construction loans outstanding included 77 loans, totaling $48.8 million, for which a modification had been agreed to. At June 30, 2019, construction loans outstanding included 59 loans, totaling $27.2 million, for which a modification had been agreed to. In general, these modifications were solely for the purpose of extending the maturity date due to conditions described above. As these modifications were not executed due to financial difficulty on the part of the borrower, they were not accounted for as TDRs. Under the CARES Act, financial institutions have the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under U.S. GAAP related to TDRs for a limited period of time to account for the effects of COVID-19. Loans with such modifications in effect at June 30, 2020, included drawn balances of $4.7 million in construction loans which were modified at the borrower’s request due to the current situation of heightened economic uncertainty triggered by the pandemic.
Consumer Lending	Consumer Lending. The Company offers a variety of secured consumer loans, including home equity, direct and indirect automobile loans, second mortgages, mobile home loans and loans secured by deposits. The Company originates substantially all of its consumer loans in its primary lending area. Usually, consumer loans are originated with fixed rates for terms of up to approximately five years, with the exception of home equity lines of credit, which are variable, tied to the prime rate of interest and are for a period of ten years. Home equity lines of credit (HELOCs) are secured with a deed of trust and are issued up to 100% of the appraised or assessed value of the property securing the line of credit, less the outstanding balance on the first mortgage and are typically issued for a term of ten years. Interest rates on the HELOCs are generally adjustable. Interest rates are based upon the loan-to-value ratio of the property with better rates given to borrowers with more equity. Automobile loans originated by the Company include both direct loans and a smaller amount of loans originated by auto dealers. The Company generally pays a negotiated fee back to the dealer for indirect loans. Typically, automobile loans are made for terms of up to 66 months for new and used vehicles. Loans secured by automobiles have fixed rates and are generally made in amounts up to 100% of the purchase price of the vehicle.
Commercial Business Lending	Commercial Business Lending. The Company’s commercial business lending activities encompass loans with a variety of purposes and security, including loans to finance accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and operating lines of credit, including agricultural production and equipment loans. The Company offers both fixed and adjustable rate commercial business loans. Generally, commercial loans secured by fixed assets are amortized over periods up to five years, while commercial operating lines of credit or agricultural production lines are generally for a one year period.
Leases	Leases. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), on July 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective transition approach whereby comparative periods were not restated. The Company also elected certain relief options under the ASU, including the option not to recognize right of use (“ROU”) asset and lease liabilities that arise from short-term leases (leases with terms of twelve months or less). The Company has five leased properties and numerous office equipment lease agreements in which it is the lessee, with lease terms exceeding twelve months. Adoption of this ASU resulted in the Company recognizing a ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $437,000, while entry into a new operating lease agreement in September, 2019, resulted in the recognition of a ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $1.6 million.
401(k) Retirement Plan	401(k) Retirement Plan. The Bank has a 401(k) retirement plan that covers substantially all eligible employees. The Bank makes “safe harbor” matching contributions of up to 4% of eligible compensation, depending upon the percentage of eligible pay deferred into the plan by the employee. Additional profit-sharing contributions of 5% of eligible salary have been accrued for the plan year ended June 30, 2020, which the board of directors authorizes based on management recommendations and financial performance for fiscal 2020. Total 401(k) expense for fiscal 2020, 2019, and 2018 was $1.5 million, $1.3 million, and $1.3 million, respectively. At June 30, 2020, 401(k) plan participants held approximately 389,000 shares of the Company’s stock in the plan. Employee deferrals and safe harbor contributions are fully vested. Profit-sharing or other contributions vest over a period of five years.
2008 Equity Incentive Plan Policy	2008 Equity Incentive Plan. The Company adopted an Equity Incentive Plan (the EIP) in 2008, reserving for award 132,000 shares (split-adjusted). EIP shares were available for award to directors, officers, and employees of the Company and its affiliates by a committee of outside directors. The committee held the power to set vesting requirements for each award under the EIP. At the 2017 annual meeting, shareholders approved the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which provided that no further awards would be made under the EIP. From fiscal 2012 through fiscal 2017, the Company awarded 122,803 shares, and no awards were made under the plan since fiscal 2017. All EIP awards were in the form of either restricted stock vesting at the rate of 20% of such shares per year, or performance-based restricted stock vesting at up to of 20% of such shares per year, contingent on the achievement of specified profitability targets over a three-year period. During fiscal 2020, 2019, and 2018, there were 2,825, 7,100, and 5,400, EIP shares (split-adjusted) vested each year, respectively. Compensation expense, in the amount of the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant, is recognized pro-rata over the five years during which the shares vest. The EIP expense for fiscal 2020, 2019, and 2018 was $88,000, $141,000, and $165,000, respectively. At June 30, 2020, unvested compensation expense related to the EIP was approximately $136,000.
2003 Stock Option Plans Policy	2003 Stock Option Plan. The Company adopted a stock option plan in October 2003 (the 2003 Plan). Under the plan, the Company granted options to purchase 242,000 shares (split-adjusted) to employees and directors, of which, options to purchase 187,000 shares (split-adjusted) have been exercised, options to purchase 45,000 shares (split-adjusted) have been forfeited, and 10,000 remain outstanding. Under the 2003 Plan, exercised options may be issued from either authorized but unissued shares, or treasury shares. At the 2017 annual meeting, shareholders approved the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which provided that no further awards would be made under the 2003 Plan. As of June 30, 2020, there was no remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options under the 2003 Plan. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options outstanding, all of which were exercisable, at June 30, 2020, was $68,000. During fiscal 2020, options to purchase 10,000 shares were exercised. The intrinsic value of options vested in fiscal 2020, 2019, and 2018 was $14,000, $35,000, and $43,000, respectively.
2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan	2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan. The Company adopted an equity-based incentive plan in October 2017 (the 2017 Plan). Under the 2017 plan, the Company reserved for issuance 500,000 shares of common stock for awards to employees and directors, against which full value awards (stock-based awards other than stock options and stock appreciation rights) are to be counted on a 2.5-for-1 basis. The 2017 Plan authorized awards to be made to employees, officers, and directors by a committee of outside directors. The committee held the power to set vesting requirements for each award under the 2017 Plan. Under the 2017 Plan, stock awards and shares issued pursuant to exercised options may be issued from either authorized but unissued shares, or treasury shares. Under the 2017 Plan, options to purchase 50,500 shares have been issued to employees, of which none have been exercised or forfeited, and 50,500 remain outstanding. As of June 30, 2020, there was $335,000 in remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options under the 2017 Plan, which will be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period. All stock options outstanding under the 2017 Plan at June 30, 2020, were at a strike price in excess of the market price. No in-the-money options were vested in fiscal 2020 or 2019, and no options vested during fiscal 2018. Full value awards totaling 15,525, 15,000 and 22,000 shares, respectively, were issued to employees and directors in fiscal 2020, 2019, and 2018. All full value awards were in the form of either restricted stock vesting at the rate of 20% of such shares per year, or performance-based restricted stock vesting at up to 20% of such shares per year, contingent on the achievement of specified profitability targets over a three-year period. During fiscal 2020 and 2019, full value awards of 7,080 and 4,200 shares were vested, respectively, while no full value awards vested in fiscal 2018. Compensation expense, in the amount of the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant, is recognized pro-rata over the five years during which the shares vest. Compensation expense for full value awards under the 2017 Plan for fiscal 2020, 2019, and 2018 was $293,000, $189,000, and $60,000, respectively. At June 30, 2020, unvested compensation expense related to full value awards under the 2017 Plan was approximately $1.3 million.
Regulatory Capital Requirements	The Company and Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in 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, the Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company and the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under U.S. GAAP, regulatory reporting requirements and regulatory capital standards. The Company and Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Furthermore, the Company and Bank’s regulators could require adjustments to regulatory capital not reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Quantitative measures established by regulatory capital standards to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total capital, Tier 1 capital (as defined), and common equity Tier 1 capital (as defined) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average total assets (as defined). Management believes, as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, that the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. In July 2013, the Federal banking agencies announced their approval of the final rule to implement the Basel III regulatory reforms, among other changes required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The approved rule included a new minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital of 4.5%, raised the minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets from 4.0% to 6.0%, and included a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0% for all banking institutions. Additionally, the rule created a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets, and prohibited banking organizations from making distributions or discretionary bonus payments during any quarter if its eligible retained income is negative, if the capital conservation buffer is not maintained. This new capital conservation buffer requirement was phased in beginning in January 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and increasing each year until being fully implemented in January 2019. The enhanced capital requirements for banking organizations such as the Company and the Bank began January 1, 2015. Other changes included revised risk-weighting of some assets, stricter limitations on mortgage servicing assets and deferred tax assets, and replacement of the ratings-based approach to risk weight securities. Effective January 1, 2020, depository institutions and depository institution holding companies that have less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets and meet other qualifying criteria, including a tier 1 leverage ratio of greater than 9 percent, are considered qualifying community banking organizations and are eligible to opt into an alternative, simplified regulatory capital framework, which utilizes a newly-defined “Community Bank Leverage Ratio” (CBLR). The CBLR framework is an optional framework that is designed to reduce burden by removing the requirements for calculating and reporting risk-based capital ratios for qualifying community banking organizations that opt into the framework. Qualifying community banking organizations that elect to use the CBLR framework and that maintain a leverage ratio of greater than 9 percent are considered to have satisfied the risk-based and leverage capital requirements in the agencies’ generally applicable capital rule. In April 2020, the federal bank regulatory agencies announced the issuance of two interim final rules, effective immediately, to provide temporary relief to community banking organizations. Under the interim final rules, the CBLR requirement is a minimum of 8% for the remainder of calendar year 2020, 8.5% for calendar year 2021, and 9% thereafter. The Company and the Bank have not made an election to utilize the CBLR framework, but will continue to monitor the available option, and could do so in the future. As of June 30, 2020, the most recent notification from the Federal banking 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, common equity Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.
Standby Letters of Credit	Standby Letters of Credit. In the normal course of business, the Company issues various financial standby, performance standby, and commercial letters of credit for its customers. As consideration for the letters of credit, the institution charges letter of credit fees based on the face amount of the letters and the creditworthiness of the counterparties. These letters of credit are standalone agreements, and are unrelated to any obligation the depositor has to the Company. Standby letters of credit are irrevocable conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Financial standby letters of credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing and similar transactions. Performance standby letters of credit are issued to guarantee performance of certain customers under non-financial contractual obligations. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The Company had total outstanding standby letters of credit amounting to $3.2 million at June 30, 2020, and $2.6 million at June 30, 2019, with terms ranging from 12 to 24 months. At June 30, 2020, the Company’s deferred revenue under standby letters of credit agreements was nominal.

Jun. 30, 2020

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization. Southern Missouri Bancorp, Inc., a Missouri corporation (the Company) was organized in 1994 and is the parent company of Southern Bank (the Bank). Substantially all of the Company’s consolidated revenues are derived from the operations of the Bank, and the Bank represents substantially all of the Company’s consolidated assets and liabilities. SB Real Estate Investments, LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank formed to hold Southern Bank Real Estate Investments, LLC. Southern Bank Real Estate Investments, LLC is a real estate investment trust (REIT) which is controlled by the investment subsidiary, and has other preferred shareholders in order to meet the requirements to be a REIT. At June 30, 2020, assets of the REIT were approximately $751 million, and consisted primarily of loan participations acquired from the Bank.

The Bank is primarily engaged in providing a full range of banking and financial services to individuals and corporate customers in its market areas. The Bank and Company are subject to competition from other financial institutions. The Bank and Company are subject to the regulation of certain federal and state agencies and undergo periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation. The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and general practices within the banking industry. In the normal course of business, the Company encounters two significant types of risk: economic and regulatory. Economic risk is comprised of interest rate risk, credit risk, and market risk. The Company is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its interest-bearing liabilities reprice on a different basis than its interest-earning assets. Credit risk is the risk of default on the Company’s investment or loan portfolios resulting from the borrowers’ inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk reflects changes in the value of the investment portfolio, collateral underlying loans receivable, and the value of the Company’s investments in real estate.

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, the Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates. The preparation of consolidated 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 disclosures 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, and estimated fair values of purchased loans.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents. For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash, due from depository institutions and interest-bearing deposits in other depository institutions with original maturities of three months or less. Interest-bearing deposits in other depository institutions were $6.9 million and $6.9 million at June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The deposits are held in various commercial banks with a total of $319,000 exceeding the FDIC’s deposit insurance limits, as well as at the Federal Reserve and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines and Chicago.

Interest-bearing Time Deposits

Interest-bearing Time Deposits. Interest-bearing deposits in banks mature within seven years and are carried at cost.

Available for Sale Securities

Available for Sale Securities. Available for sale securities, which include any security for which the Company has no immediate plan to sell but which may be sold in the future, are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders’ equity. All securities have been classified as available for sale.

Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized or accreted as adjustments to income over the estimated life of the security using the level yield method. Realized gains or losses on the sale of securities is based on the specific identification method. The fair value of securities is based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.

The Company does not invest in collateralized mortgage obligations that are considered high risk.

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, the Company recognizes the credit component of an OTTI of a debt security in earnings and the remaining portion in other comprehensive income (loss). As a result of this guidance, the Company’s consolidated balance sheets for the dates presented reflect the full impairment (that is, the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and fair value) on debt securities that the Company intends to sell or would more likely than not be required to sell before the expected recovery of the amortized cost basis. For available-for-sale debt securities that management has no intent to sell and believes that it more likely than not will not be required to sell prior to recovery, only the credit loss component of the impairment is recognized in earnings, while the noncredit loss is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The credit loss component recognized in earnings is identified as the amount of principal cash flows not expected to be received over the remaining term of the security as projected based on cash flow projections.

Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank Stock

Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank Stock. The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve and the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) systems. Capital stock of the Federal Reserve and the FHLB is a required investment based upon a predetermined formula and is carried at cost.

Loans

Loans. Loans are generally stated at unpaid principal balances, less the allowance for loan losses, any net deferred loan origination fees, and unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans.

Interest on loans is accrued based upon the principal amount outstanding. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when, in management’s judgment, the collectability of interest or principal in the normal course of business is doubtful. The Company complies with regulatory guidance which indicates that loans should be placed in nonaccrual status when 90 days past due, unless the loan is both well-secured and in the process of collection. A loan that is “in the process of collection” may be subject to legal action or, in appropriate circumstances, through other collection efforts reasonably expected to result in repayment or restoration to current status in the near future. A loan is considered delinquent when a payment has not been made by the contractual due date. At June 30, 2020, some loans were modified under the terms of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act), which provides that loans modified after March 1, 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and which were otherwise current at December 31, 2019, need not be accounted for as troubled debt restructurings (TDRs). While these loans may not have met the contractual due dates of payments under their previous terms, so long as they were compliant with the terms of the modification made under the CARES Act, they would not have been reported as delinquent at June 30, 2020. See further disclosure in Note 3: Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses. Interest income previously accrued but not collected at the date a loan is placed on nonaccrual status is reversed against interest income. Cash receipts on a nonaccrual loan are applied to principal and interest in accordance with its contractual terms unless full payment of principal is not expected, in which case cash receipts, whether designated as principal or interest, are applied as a reduction of the carrying value of the loan. A nonaccrual loan is generally returned to accrual status when principal and interest payments are current, full collectability of principal and interest is reasonably assured, and a consistent record of performance has been demonstrated.

The allowance for losses on loans represents management’s best estimate of losses probable in the existing loan portfolio. The allowance for losses on loans is increased by the provision for losses on loans charged to expense and reduced by loans charged off, net of recoveries. Loans are charged off in the period deemed uncollectible, based on management’s analysis of expected cash flows (for non-collateral dependent loans) or collateral value (for collateral-dependent loans). Subsequent recoveries of loans previously charged off, if any, are credited to the allowance when received. The provision for losses on loans is determined based on management’s assessment of several factors: reviews and evaluations of specific loans, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and the related impact on specific borrowers and industry groups, historical loan loss experience, the level of classified and nonperforming loans, and the results of regulatory examinations.

Loans are considered impaired if, 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. Depending on a particular loan’s circumstances, the Company measures impairment of a loan based upon either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell if the loan is collateral dependent. Valuation allowances are established for collateral-dependent impaired loans for the difference between the loan amount and fair value of collateral less estimated selling costs. For impaired loans that are not collateral dependent, a valuation allowance is established for the difference between the loan amount and the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the historical effective interest rate or the observable market price of the loan. Impairment losses are recognized through an increase in the required allowance for loan losses. Cash receipts on loans deemed impaired are recorded based on the loan’s separate status as a nonaccrual loan or an accrual status loan.

Some loans are accounted for in accordance with ASC 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. For these loans (“purchased credit impaired loans”), the Company recorded a fair value discount and began carrying them at book value less their face amount (see Note 4). For these loans, we determined the contractual amount and timing of undiscounted principal and interest payments (the “undiscounted contractual cash flows”), and estimated the amount and timing of undiscounted expected principal and interest payments, including expected prepayments (the “undiscounted expected cash flows”). Under acquired impaired loan accounting, the difference between the undiscounted contractual cash flows and the undiscounted expected cash flows is the nonaccretable difference. The nonaccretable difference is an estimate of the loss exposure of principal and interest related to the purchased credit impaired loans, and the amount is subject to change over time based on the performance of the loans. The carrying value of purchased credit impaired loans is initially determined as the discounted expected cash flows. The excess of expected cash flows at acquisition over the initial fair value of the purchased credit impaired loans is referred to as the “accretable yield” and is recorded as interest income over the estimated life of the acquired loans using the level-yield method, if the timing and amount of the future cash flows is reasonably estimable. The carrying value of purchased credit impaired loans is reduced by payments received, both principal and interest, and increased by the portion of the accretable yield recognized as interest income. Subsequent to acquisition, the Company evaluates the purchased credit impaired loans on a quarterly basis. Increases in expected cash flows compared to those previously estimated increase the accretable yield and are recognized as interest income prospectively. Decreases in expected cash flows compared to those previously estimated decrease the accretable yield and may result in the establishment of an allowance for loan losses and a provision for loan losses. Purchased credit impaired loans are generally considered accruing and performing loans, as the loans accrete interest income over the estimated life of the loan when expected cash flows are reasonably estimable. Accordingly, purchased credit impaired loans that are contractually past due are still considered to be accruing and performing as long as there is an expectation that the estimated cash flows will be received. If the timing and amount of cash flows is not reasonably estimable, the loans may be classified as nonaccrual loans.

Loan fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred, and the net fee or cost is recognized as an adjustment to interest income using the interest method over the contractual life of the loans.

Foreclosed Real Estate

Foreclosed Real Estate. Real estate acquired by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is initially recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs, establishing a new cost basis. Costs for development and improvement of the property are capitalized.

Valuations are periodically performed by management, and an allowance for losses is established by a charge to operations if the carrying value of a property exceeds its estimated fair value, less estimated selling costs.

Loans to facilitate the sale of real estate acquired in foreclosure are discounted if made at less than market rates. Discounts are amortized over the fixed interest period of each loan using the interest method.

Premises and Equipment

Premises and Equipment. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and include expenditures for major betterments and renewals. Maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. When property is retired or sold, the retired asset and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss taken into income. The Company reviews property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment loss recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the assets.

Depreciation is computed by use of straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated lives are generally seven to forty years for premises, three to seven years for equipment, and three years for software.

Bank Owned Life Insurance

Bank Owned Life Insurance. Bank owned life insurance policies are reflected in the consolidated balance sheets at the estimated cash surrender value. Changes in the cash surrender value of these policies, as well as a portion of the insurance proceeds received, are recorded in noninterest income in the consolidated statements of income.

Intangible Assets

Intangible Assets. The Company’s intangible assets at June 30, 2020 included gross core deposit intangibles of $15.3 million with $8.7 million accumulated amortization, gross other identifiable intangibles of $3.8 million with accumulated amortization of $3.8 million, and mortgage servicing rights of $1.1 million. At June 30, 2019, the Company’s intangible assets included gross core deposit intangibles of $14.7 million with $6.9 million accumulated amortization, gross other identifiable intangibles of $3.8 million with accumulated amortization of $3.8 million, and mortgage servicing rights of $1.4 million. The Company’s core deposit intangible assets are being amortized using the straight line method, over periods ranging from five to seven years, with amortization expense expected to be approximately $1.4 million in fiscal 2021, $1.4 million in fiscal 2022, $1.4 million in fiscal 2023, $1.4 million in fiscal 2024, $807,000 in fiscal 2025, and $328,000 thereafter. As of June 30, 2020, and June 30, 2019, there was no impairment indicated.

Goodwill

Goodwill. The Company’s goodwill is evaluated annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators are present. A qualitative assessment is performed to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not the fair value is less than the carrying amount, including goodwill. If, based on the evaluation, it is determined to be more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying value, then goodwill is tested further 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 financial statements. As of June 30, 2020, and June 30, 2019, there was no impairment indicated, based on a qualitative assessment of goodwill, which considered: the decline in the market value of the Company’s common stock, relative to peers; concentrations of credit; profitability; nonperforming assets; capital levels; and results of recent regulatory examinations.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes. The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with income tax accounting guidance (ASC 740, Income Taxes). The 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 the taxable income or excess of deductions over revenues. The Company determines deferred income taxes using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur.

Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred tax assets are recognized if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term more likely than not means a likelihood of more than 50 percent; the terms examined and upon examination also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date and is subject to the management’s judgment. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties on income taxes as a component of income tax expense.

The Company files consolidated income tax returns with its subsidiary.

Incentive Plan

Incentive Plans. The Company accounts for its Management and Recognition Plan (MRP), Equity Incentive Plan (EIP), and Omnibus Incentive Plan (OIP) in accordance with ASC 718, “Share-Based Payment.” Compensation expense is based on the market price of the Company’s stock on the date the shares are granted and is recorded over the vesting period. The difference between the grant-date fair value and the fair value on the date the shares are considered earned represents a tax benefit to the Company that is recorded as an adjustment to income tax expense.

Outside Directors' Retirement

Outside Directors’ Retirement. The Bank adopted a directors’ retirement plan in April 1994 for outside directors. The directors’ retirement plan provides that each non-employee director (participant) shall receive, upon termination of service on the Board on or after age 60, other than termination for cause, a benefit in equal annual installments over a five year period. The benefit will be based upon the product of the participant’s vesting percentage and the total Board fees paid to the participant during the calendar year preceding termination of service on the Board. The vesting percentage shall be determined based upon the participant’s years of service on the Board, whether before or after the reorganization date.

In the event that the participant dies before collecting any or all of the benefits, the Bank shall pay the participant’s beneficiary. No benefits shall be payable to anyone other than the beneficiary, and shall terminate on the death of the beneficiary.

Stock Options

Stock Options. Compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued, and recognized over the vesting period during which an employee provides service in exchange for the award.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share available to common stockholders is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share available to common stockholders includes the effect of all weighted-average dilutive potential common shares (stock options) outstanding during each year.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive Income. Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income, net of applicable income taxes. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on available-for-sale securities, unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on available-for-sale securities for which a portion of an other-than-temporary impairment has been recognized in income, and changes in the funded status of defined benefit pension plans.

Transfers Between Fair Value Hierarchy Levels

Transfers Between Fair Value Hierarchy Levels. Transfers in and out of Level 1 (quoted market prices), Level 2 (other significant observable inputs) and Level 3 (significant unobservable inputs) are recognized on the period ending date.

Revisions

Revisions. Certain immaterial revisions have been made to the 2019 and 2018 consolidated financial statements for netting interchange expenses with interchange revenues to apply the recognition on an agency versus principal basis. These revisions did not have a significant impact on the financial statement line items impacted. have been reclassified to conform to the 2020 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income or retained earnings.

New Accounting Pronouncements

The following paragraphs summarize the impact of new accounting pronouncements:

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) - Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820. The amendments in this update remove disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, modify/clarify the specific requirements of certain disclosures, and add disclosure requirements identified as relevant. ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for certain removed and modified disclosures, and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326). The Update amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available for sale debt securities. For assets held at amortized cost basis, Topic 326 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses. The Update affects loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off balance sheet credit exposures, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. For public companies, the ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is available beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption will be applied on a modified retrospective basis, through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings.

The Company formed a working group of key personnel responsible for the allowance for loan losses estimate and initiated its evaluation of the data and systems requirements of adoption of the Update. The group determined that purchasing third party software would be the most effective method to comply with the requirements, evaluated several outside vendors, and made a vendor recommendation that was approved by the Board. Model validation and data testing using existing ALLL methodology have been completed. Parallel testing of the new methodology compared to the current methodology has been ongoing in the second half of fiscal year 2020. We expect to recognize a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for loan losses as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the new standard is effective, which for the Company will be the three-month period ending September 30, 2020.

Based on its initial analysis, the Company estimates that the allowance for credit losses (ACL) will increase by 27 to 35 percent as compared to the June 30, 2020, allowance for loan losses. This would result in an ACL of approximately 1.48% to 1.57% of gross loans upon adoption in the first quarter of fiscal 2021. This estimate is based upon the Company’s current analysis of economic conditions and forecasts, and the estimate is subject to change based on continuing review and challenge of the model and our methodologies and judgments as we work to finalize implementation. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 in fiscal 2021 could also impact the Company’s future earnings, perhaps materially. In March 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act) was signed into law, providing banking organizations required to adopt ASU 2016-13 during calendar year 2020 temporary relief from compliance with the standard until the earlier of the termination date of the national emergency declared by the President on March 13, 2020, concerning the COVID-19 pandemic (the National Emergency), or December 31, 2020.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases,” to revise the accounting related to lease accounting. Under the new guidance, a lessee is required to record a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. The Update was effective for the Company July 1, 2019. Adoption of the standard allows the use of a modified retrospective transition approach for all periods presented at the time of adoption. Based on the Company’s leases outstanding at June 30, 2020, which included five leased properties and numerous office equipment leases, the adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial condition or consolidated statements of income, although an increase to assets and liabilities occurred at the time of adoption. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company recognized a ROU asset and corresponding lease liability for all leases of approximately $2.0 million based on the lease portfolio at that time. The Company’s new leases, lease terminations, and lease modifications and renewals will impact the amount of ROU asset and corresponding lease liability recognized. The Company’s leases are all currently “operating leases” as defined in the Update; therefore, no material change in the income statement presentation of lease expense is anticipated.

In March 2020, the CARES Act was signed into law, creating a forbearance program for federally backed mortgage loans, protects borrowers from negative credit reporting due to loan accommodations related to the National Emergency, and provides financial institutions the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under U.S. GAAP related to troubled debt restructurings (TDR) for a limited period of time to account for the effects of COVID-19. The Company has elected to not apply ASC Subtopic 310-40 for loans eligible under the CARES Act, based on the modification’s (1) relation to COVID-19, (2) execution for a loan that was not more than 30-days past due as of December 31, 2019, and (3) executed between March 1, 2020, and the earlier of the date that falls 60 days following the termination of the declared National Emergency, or December 31, 2020.

Repurchase Agreements

The carrying value of investment and mortgage-backed securities pledged as collateral to secure public deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase amounted to $156.1 million and $143.7 million at June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The securities pledged consist of marketable securities, including $0 and $5.6 million of U.S. Government and Federal Agency Obligations, $82.0 million and $47.3 million of Mortgage-Backed Securities, $41.9 million and $55.7 million of Collateralized Mortgage Obligations, $32.0 million and $34.9 million of State and Political Subdivisions Obligations, and $200,000 and $300,000 of Other Securities at June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Other securities

Other securities. At June 30, 2020, there were two pooled trust preferred securities with an estimated fair value of $643,000 and unrealized losses of $333,000 in a continuous unrealized loss position for twelve months or more. These unrealized losses were primarily due to the long-term nature of the pooled trust preferred securities and a reduced demand for these securities, and concerns regarding the financial institutions that issued the underlying trust preferred securities.

The June 30, 2020, cash flow analysis for these two securities indicated it is probable the Company will receive all contracted principal and related interest projected. The cash flow analysis used in making this determination was based on anticipated default, recovery, and prepayment rates, and the resulting cash flows were discounted based on the yield spread anticipated at the time the securities were purchased. Other inputs include the actual collateral attributes, which include credit ratings and other performance indicators of the underlying financial institutions, including profitability, capital ratios, and asset quality. Assumptions for these two securities included prepayments averaging 1.6 percent, annually, annual defaults averaging 50 basis points, and a recovery rate averaging 10 percent of gross defaults, lagged two years.

One of these two securities has continued to receive cash interest payments in full since initial purchase; the other security received principal-in-kind (PIK), in lieu of cash interest, for a period of time following the recession and financial crisis which began in 2008, but resumed cash interest payments during fiscal 2014. Our cash flow analysis indicates that cash interest payments are expected to continue for the securities. Because the Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is not more-likely-than-not that the Company will be required to sell these securities prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2020.

The Company does not believe any other individual unrealized loss as of June 30, 2020, represents OTTI. However, the Company could be required to recognize OTTI losses in future periods with respect to its available for sale investment securities portfolio. The amount and timing of any required OTTI will depend on the decline in the underlying cash flows of the securities. Should the impairment of any of these securities become other-than-temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the resulting loss recognized in the period the OTTI is identified.

Credit losses recognized on investments

Credit losses recognized on investments. During fiscal 2009, the Company adopted ASC 820, formerly FASB Staff Position 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly.” There were no trust preferred securities for which only a credit loss was recognized in income and other losses are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) for the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

Residential Mortgage Lending

Residential Mortgage Lending. The Company actively originates loans for the acquisition or refinance of one- to four-family residences. This category includes both fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage (“ARM”) loans amortizing over periods of up to 30 years, and the properties securing such loans may be owner-occupied or non-owner-occupied. Single-family residential loans do not generally exceed 90% of the lower of the appraised value or purchase price of the secured property. Substantially all of the one- to four-family residential mortgage originations in the Company’s portfolio are located within the Company’s primary lending area.

The Company also originates loans secured by multi-family residential properties that are often located outside the Company’s primary lending area but made to borrowers who operate within our primary market area. The majority of the multi-family residential loans that are originated by the Bank are amortized over periods generally up to 25 years, with balloon maturities typically up to ten years. Both fixed and adjustable interest rates are offered and it is typical for the Company to include an interest rate “floor” and “ceiling” in the loan agreement. Generally, multi-family residential loans do not exceed 85% of the lower of the appraised value or purchase price of the secured property.

Commercial Real Estate Lending

Commercial Real Estate Lending. The Company actively originates loans secured by commercial real estate including farmland, single- and multi-tenant retail properties, restaurants, hotels, land (improved and unimproved), nursing homes and other healthcare-related facilities, warehouses and distribution centers, convenience stores, automobile dealerships and other automotive-related services, and other businesses. These properties are typically owned and operated by borrowers headquartered within the Company’s primary lending area, however, the property may be located outside our primary lending area. Approximately $281.4 million of the Company’s $887.4 million in commercial real estate loans are secured by properties located outside our primary lending area.

Most commercial real estate loans originated by the Company generally are based on amortization schedules of up to 25 years with monthly principal and interest payments. Generally, the interest rate received on these loans is fixed for a maturity for up to ten years, with a balloon payment due at maturity. Alternatively, for some loans, the interest rate adjusts at least annually after an initial period up to seven years. The Company typically includes an interest rate “floor” in the loan agreement. Generally, improved commercial real estate loan amounts do not exceed 80% of the lower of the appraised value or the purchase price of the secured property. Agricultural real estate terms offered differ slightly, with amortization schedules of up to 25 years with an 80% loan-to-value ratio, or 30 years with a 75% loan-to-value ratio.

Construction Lending

Construction Lending. The Company originates real estate loans secured by property or land that is under construction or development. Construction loans originated by the Company are generally secured by mortgage loans for the construction of owner occupied residential real estate or to finance speculative construction secured by residential real estate, land development, or owner-operated or non-owner occupied commercial real estate. During construction, these loans typically require monthly interest-only payments, with single-family residential construction loans having maturities ranging from six to twelve months, while multifamily or commercial construction loans typically mature in 12 to 24 months. Once construction is completed, permanent construction loans may be converted to monthly payments using amortization schedules of up to 30 years on residential and generally up to 25 years on commercial real estate.

While the Company typically utilizes relatively short maturity periods to closely monitor the inherent risks associated with construction loans for these loans, weather conditions, change orders, availability of materials and/or labor, and other factors may contribute to the lengthening of a project, thus necessitating the need to renew the construction loan at the balloon maturity. Such extensions are typically executed in incremental three month periods to facilitate project completion. The Company’s average term of construction loans is approximately eight months. During construction, loans typically require monthly interest only payments which may allow the Company an opportunity to monitor for early signs of financial difficulty should the borrower fail to make a required monthly payment. Additionally, during the construction phase, the Company typically performs interim inspections which further allow the Company opportunity to assess risk. At June 30, 2020, construction loans outstanding included 77 loans, totaling $48.8 million, for which a modification had been agreed to. At June 30, 2019, construction loans outstanding included 59 loans, totaling $27.2 million, for which a modification had been agreed to. In general, these modifications were solely for the purpose of extending the maturity date due to conditions described above. As these modifications were not executed due to financial difficulty on the part of the borrower, they were not accounted for as TDRs. Under the CARES Act, financial institutions have the option to temporarily suspend certain requirements under U.S. GAAP related to TDRs for a limited period of time to account for the effects of COVID-19. Loans with such modifications in effect at June 30, 2020, included drawn balances of $4.7 million in construction loans which were modified at the borrower’s request due to the current situation of heightened economic uncertainty triggered by the pandemic.

Consumer Lending

Consumer Lending. The Company offers a variety of secured consumer loans, including home equity, direct and indirect automobile loans, second mortgages, mobile home loans and loans secured by deposits. The Company originates substantially all of its consumer loans in its primary lending area. Usually, consumer loans are originated with fixed rates for terms of up to

approximately five years, with the exception of home equity lines of credit, which are variable, tied to the prime rate of interest and are for a period of ten years.

Home equity lines of credit (HELOCs) are secured with a deed of trust and are issued up to 100% of the appraised or assessed value of the property securing the line of credit, less the outstanding balance on the first mortgage and are typically issued for a term of ten years. Interest rates on the HELOCs are generally adjustable. Interest rates are based upon the loan-to-value ratio of the property with better rates given to borrowers with more equity.

Automobile loans originated by the Company include both direct loans and a smaller amount of loans originated by auto dealers. The Company generally pays a negotiated fee back to the dealer for indirect loans. Typically, automobile loans are made for terms of up to 66 months for new and used vehicles. Loans secured by automobiles have fixed rates and are generally made in amounts up to 100% of the purchase price of the vehicle.

Commercial Business Lending

Commercial Business Lending. The Company’s commercial business lending activities encompass loans with a variety of purposes and security, including loans to finance accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and operating lines of credit, including agricultural production and equipment loans. The Company offers both fixed and adjustable rate commercial business loans. Generally, commercial loans secured by fixed assets are amortized over periods up to five years, while commercial operating lines of credit or agricultural production lines are generally for a one year period.

Leases

Leases. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), on July 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective transition approach whereby comparative periods were not restated. The Company also elected certain relief options under the ASU, including the option not to recognize right of use (“ROU”) asset and lease liabilities that arise from short-term leases (leases with terms of twelve months or less). The Company has five leased properties and numerous office equipment lease agreements in which it is the lessee, with lease terms exceeding twelve months. Adoption of this ASU resulted in the Company recognizing a ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $437,000, while entry into a new operating lease agreement in September, 2019, resulted in the recognition of a ROU asset and corresponding lease liability of $1.6 million.

401(k) Retirement Plan

401(k) Retirement Plan. The Bank has a 401(k) retirement plan that covers substantially all eligible employees. The Bank makes “safe harbor” matching contributions of up to 4% of eligible compensation, depending upon the percentage of eligible pay deferred into the plan by the employee. Additional profit-sharing contributions of 5% of eligible salary have been accrued for the plan year ended June 30, 2020, which the board of directors authorizes based on management recommendations and financial performance for fiscal 2020. Total 401(k) expense for fiscal 2020, 2019, and 2018 was $1.5 million, $1.3 million, and $1.3 million, respectively. At June 30, 2020, 401(k) plan participants held approximately 389,000 shares of the Company’s stock in the plan. Employee deferrals and safe harbor contributions are fully vested. Profit-sharing or other contributions vest over a period of five years.

2008 Equity Incentive Plan Policy

2008 Equity Incentive Plan. The Company adopted an Equity Incentive Plan (the EIP) in 2008, reserving for award 132,000 shares (split-adjusted). EIP shares were available for award to directors, officers, and employees of the Company and its affiliates by a committee of outside directors. The committee held the power to set vesting requirements for each award under the EIP. At the 2017 annual meeting, shareholders approved the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which provided that no further awards would be made under the EIP. From fiscal 2012 through fiscal 2017, the Company awarded 122,803 shares, and no awards were made under the plan since fiscal 2017. All EIP awards were in the form of either restricted stock vesting at the rate of 20% of such shares per year, or performance-based restricted stock vesting at up to of 20% of such shares per year, contingent on the achievement of specified profitability targets over a three-year period. During fiscal 2020, 2019, and 2018, there were 2,825, 7,100, and 5,400, EIP shares (split-adjusted) vested each year, respectively. Compensation expense, in the amount of the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant, is recognized pro-rata over the five years during which the shares vest. The EIP expense for fiscal 2020, 2019, and 2018 was $88,000, $141,000, and $165,000, respectively. At June 30, 2020, unvested compensation expense related to the EIP was approximately $136,000.

2003 Stock Option Plans Policy

2003 Stock Option Plan. The Company adopted a stock option plan in October 2003 (the 2003 Plan). Under the plan, the Company granted options to purchase 242,000 shares (split-adjusted) to employees and directors, of which, options to purchase 187,000 shares (split-adjusted) have been exercised, options to purchase 45,000 shares (split-adjusted) have been forfeited, and 10,000 remain outstanding. Under the 2003 Plan, exercised options may be issued from either authorized but unissued shares, or treasury shares. At the 2017 annual meeting, shareholders approved the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which provided that no further awards would be made under the 2003 Plan.

As of June 30, 2020, there was no remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options under the 2003 Plan. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options outstanding, all of which were exercisable, at June 30, 2020, was $68,000. During fiscal 2020, options to purchase 10,000 shares were exercised. The intrinsic value of options vested in fiscal 2020, 2019, and 2018 was $14,000, $35,000, and $43,000, respectively.

2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan

2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan. The Company adopted an equity-based incentive plan in October 2017 (the 2017 Plan). Under the 2017 plan, the Company reserved for issuance 500,000 shares of common stock for awards to employees and directors, against which full value awards (stock-based awards other than stock options and stock appreciation rights) are to be counted on a 2.5-for-1 basis. The 2017 Plan authorized awards to be made to employees, officers, and directors by a committee of outside directors. The committee held the power to set vesting requirements for each award under the 2017 Plan. Under the 2017 Plan, stock awards and shares issued pursuant to exercised options may be issued from either authorized but unissued shares, or treasury shares.

Under the 2017 Plan, options to purchase 50,500 shares have been issued to employees, of which none have been exercised or forfeited, and 50,500 remain outstanding. As of June 30, 2020, there was $335,000 in remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options under the 2017 Plan, which will be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period. All stock options outstanding under the 2017 Plan at June 30, 2020, were at a strike price in excess of the market price. No in-the-money options were vested in fiscal 2020 or 2019, and no options vested during fiscal 2018.

Full value awards totaling 15,525, 15,000 and 22,000 shares, respectively, were issued to employees and directors in fiscal 2020, 2019, and 2018. All full value awards were in the form of either restricted stock vesting at the rate of 20% of such shares per year, or performance-based restricted stock vesting at up to 20% of such shares per year, contingent on the achievement of specified profitability targets over a three-year period. During fiscal 2020 and 2019, full value awards of 7,080 and 4,200 shares were vested, respectively, while no full value awards vested in fiscal 2018. Compensation expense, in the amount of the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant, is recognized pro-rata over the five years during which the shares vest. Compensation expense for full value awards under the 2017 Plan for fiscal 2020, 2019, and 2018 was $293,000, $189,000, and $60,000, respectively. At June 30, 2020, unvested compensation expense related to full value awards under the 2017 Plan was approximately $1.3 million.

Regulatory Capital Requirements

The Company and Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in 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, the Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company and the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under U.S. GAAP, regulatory reporting requirements and regulatory capital standards. The Company and Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Furthermore, the Company and Bank’s regulators could require adjustments to regulatory capital not reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Quantitative measures established by regulatory capital standards to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total capital, Tier 1 capital (as defined), and common equity Tier 1 capital (as defined) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average total assets (as defined). Management believes, as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, that the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

In July 2013, the Federal banking agencies announced their approval of the final rule to implement the Basel III regulatory reforms, among other changes required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The approved rule included a new minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital of 4.5%, raised the minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets from 4.0% to 6.0%, and included a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0% for all banking institutions. Additionally, the rule created a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets, and prohibited banking organizations from making distributions or discretionary bonus payments during any quarter if its eligible retained income is negative, if the capital conservation buffer is not maintained. This new capital conservation buffer requirement was phased in beginning in January 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and increasing each year until being fully implemented in January 2019. The enhanced capital requirements for banking organizations such as the Company and the Bank began January 1, 2015. Other changes included revised risk-weighting of some assets, stricter limitations on mortgage servicing assets and deferred tax assets, and replacement of the ratings-based approach to risk weight securities.

Effective January 1, 2020, depository institutions and depository institution holding companies that have less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets and meet other qualifying criteria, including a tier 1 leverage ratio of greater than 9 percent, are considered qualifying community banking organizations and are eligible to opt into an alternative, simplified regulatory capital framework, which utilizes a newly-defined “Community Bank Leverage Ratio” (CBLR). The CBLR framework is an optional framework that is designed to reduce burden by removing the requirements for calculating and reporting risk-based capital ratios for qualifying community banking organizations that opt into the framework. Qualifying community banking organizations that elect to use the CBLR framework and that maintain a leverage ratio of greater than 9 percent are considered to have satisfied the risk-based and leverage capital requirements in the agencies’ generally applicable capital rule. In April 2020, the federal bank regulatory agencies announced the issuance of two interim final rules, effective immediately, to provide temporary relief to community banking organizations. Under the interim final rules, the CBLR requirement is a minimum of 8% for the remainder of calendar year 2020, 8.5% for calendar year 2021, and 9% thereafter. The Company and the Bank have not made an election to utilize the CBLR framework, but will continue to monitor the available option, and could do so in the future.

As of June 30, 2020, the most recent notification from the Federal banking 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, common equity Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

Standby Letters of Credit

Standby Letters of Credit. In the normal course of business, the Company issues various financial standby, performance standby, and commercial letters of credit for its customers. As consideration for the letters of credit, the institution charges letter of credit fees based on the face amount of the letters and the creditworthiness of the counterparties. These letters of credit are standalone agreements, and are unrelated to any obligation the depositor has to the Company.

Standby letters of credit are irrevocable conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Financial standby letters of credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing and similar transactions. Performance standby letters of credit are issued to guarantee performance of certain customers under non-financial contractual obligations. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers.

The Company had total outstanding standby letters of credit amounting to $3.2 million at June 30, 2020, and $2.6 million at June 30, 2019, with terms ranging from 12 to 24 months. At June 30, 2020, the Company’s deferred revenue under standby letters of credit agreements was nominal.

Accounting Principles

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require disclosure of certain significant estimates and current vulnerabilities due to certain concentrations. Estimates related to the allowance for loan losses are described in Note 1
