PART I

Item 1. Business

General

Emclaire Financial Corp (the Corporation) is a Pennsylvania corporation and financial holding company that provides a full range of retail and commercial financial products and services to customers in western Pennsylvania through its wholly owned subsidiary bank, The Farmers National Bank of Emlenton (the Bank). The Corporation also provides real estate settlement services through its subsidiary, Emclaire Settlement Services, LLC (the Title Company).

The Bank was organized in 1900 as a national banking association and is a financial intermediary whose principal business consists of attracting deposits from the general public and investing such funds in real estate loans secured by liens on residential and commercial property, consumer loans, commercial business loans, marketable securities and interest-earning deposits. The Bank currently operates through a network of seventeen retail branch offices in Venango, Allegheny, Butler, Clarion, Clearfield, Crawford, Elk, Jefferson and Mercer counties, Pennsylvania. The Corporation and the Bank are headquartered in Emlenton, Pennsylvania.

The Bank is subject to examination and comprehensive regulation by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), which is the Bank’s chartering authority, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), which insures customer deposits held by the Bank to the full extent provided by law. The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland (FRB) and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (FHLB). The Corporation is a registered bank holding company pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (BHCA), and a financial holding company under the Gramm-Leach Bliley Act of 1999 (GLBA).

On April 30, 2016, the Corporation completed its acquisition of United American Savings Bank (United American or UASB) in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 30, 2015, by and among the Corporation, the Bank and United American (the Merger Agreement). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Corporation acquired United American through a reverse merger of a newly created, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank into United American. Immediately after the merger, United American merged with and into The Farmers National Bank of Emlenton, with The Farmers National Bank of Emlenton being the surviving bank. The Corporation acquired all of the outstanding shares of common stock of United American for cash consideration of $13.2 million ($42.67 per share).

At December 31, 2016, the Corporation had $692.1 million in total assets, $54.1 million in stockholders’ equity, $515.4 million in net loans and $584.9 million in total deposits.

Lending Activities

General. The principal lending activities of the Corporation are the origination of residential mortgage, commercial mortgage, commercial business and consumer loans. Nearly all of the Corporation’s loans are originated in and secured by property within the Corporation’s primary market area.

One-to-Four Family Mortgage Loans. The Corporation offers first mortgage loans secured by one-to-four family residences located mainly in the Corporation’s primary lending area. One-to-four family mortgage loans amounted to 38.0% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2016. Typically such residences are single-family owner occupied units. The Corporation is an approved, qualified lender for the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC) and the FHLB. As a result, the Corporation may sell loans to and service loans for the FHLMC and FHLB in market conditions and circumstances where this is advantageous in managing interest rate risk.

Home Equity Loans. The Corporation originates home equity loans secured by single-family residences. Home equity loans amounted to 17.5% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2016. These loans may be either a single advance fixed-rate loan with a term of up to 20 years or a variable rate revolving line of credit. These loans are made only on owner-occupied single-family residences.

Commercial Business and Commercial Real Estate Loans. Commercial lending constitutes a significant portion of the Corporation’s lending activities. Commercial business and commercial real estate loans amounted to 43.2% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2016. Commercial real estate loans generally consist of loans granted for commercial purposes secured by commercial or other nonresidential real estate. Commercial loans consist of secured and unsecured loans for such items as capital assets, inventory, operations and other commercial purposes.

Consumer Loans. Consumer loans generally consist of fixed-rate term loans for automobile purchases, home improvements not secured by real estate, capital and other personal expenditures. The Corporation also offers unsecured revolving personal lines of credit and overdraft protection. Consumer loans amounted to 1.3% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2016.

Loans to One Borrower. National banks are subject to limits on the amount of credit that they can extend to one borrower. Under current law, loans to one borrower are limited to an amount equal to 15% of unimpaired capital and surplus on an unsecured basis, and an additional amount equal to 10% of unimpaired capital and surplus if the loan is secured by readily marketable collateral. At December 31, 2016, the Bank’s loans to one borrower limit based upon 15% of unimpaired capital was $8.8 million. The Bank may grant credit to borrowers in excess of the legal lending limit as part of the Legal Lending Limit Pilot Program approved by the OCC which allows the Bank to exceed its legal lending limit within certain parameters. At December 31, 2016, the Bank’s largest single lending relationship had an outstanding balance of $6.9 million.

K-5

Contractual maturities of loans do not reflect the actual term of the Corporation’s loan portfolio. The average life of mortgage loans is substantially less than their contractual terms because of loan prepayments and enforcement of due-on-sale clauses, which give the Corporation the right to declare a loan immediately payable in the event, among other things, that the borrower sells the real property subject to the mortgage. Scheduled principal amortization also reduces the average life of the loan portfolio. The average life of mortgage loans tends to increase when current market mortgage rates substantially exceed rates on existing mortgages and conversely, decrease when rates on existing mortgages substantially exceed current market interest rates.

Delinquencies and Classified Assets

Delinquent Loans and Other Real Estate Acquired Through Foreclosure (OREO). Typically, a loan is considered past due and a late charge is assessed when the borrower has not made a payment within fifteen days from the payment due date. When a borrower fails to make a required payment on a loan, the Corporation attempts to cure the deficiency by contacting the borrower. The initial contact with the borrower is made shortly after the seventeenth day following the due date for which a payment was not received. In most cases, delinquencies are cured promptly.

If the delinquency exceeds 60 days, the Corporation works with the borrower to set up a satisfactory repayment schedule. Typically, loans are considered nonaccruing upon reaching 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well secured and in the process of collection, although the Corporation may be receiving partial payments of interest and partial repayments of principal on such loans. When a loan is placed in nonaccrual status, previously accrued but unpaid interest is deducted from interest income. The Corporation institutes foreclosure action on secured loans only if all other remedies have been exhausted. If an action to foreclose is instituted and the loan is not reinstated or paid in full, the property is sold at a judicial or trustee’s sale at which the Corporation may be the buyer.

Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure are to be sold and are initially recorded at fair value at the date of foreclosure less costs to sell, thereby establishing a new cost basis. After foreclosure, management periodically performs valuations and the real estate is carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less the cost to sell the property. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in the loss on foreclosed real estate. The Corporation generally attempts to sell its OREO properties as soon as practical upon receipt of clear title.

As of December 31, 2016, the Corporation’s nonperforming assets were $3.6 million, or 0.52% of the Corporation’s total assets, compared to $3.2 million or 0.54% of the Corporation’s total assets, at December 31, 2015. Nonperforming assets at December 31, 2016 included nonaccrual loans and OREO of $3.3 million and $291,000, respectively. Included in nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2016 were 8 loans totaling $239,000 considered to be troubled debt restructurings (TDRs).

Classified Assets. Regulations applicable to insured institutions require the classification of problem assets as “substandard,” “doubtful,” or “loss” depending upon the existence of certain characteristics as discussed below. A category designated “special mention” must also be maintained for assets currently not requiring the above classifications but having potential weakness or risk characteristics that could result in future problems. An asset is classified as substandard if not adequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. A substandard asset is characterized by the distinct possibility that the Corporation will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard and these weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable or improbable. Assets classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets is not warranted.

The Corporation’s classification of assets policy requires the establishment of valuation allowances for loan losses in an amount deemed prudent by management. Valuation allowances represent loss allowances that have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated with lending activities. When the Corporation classifies a problem asset as a loss, the portion of the asset deemed uncollectible is charged off immediately.

The Corporation regularly reviews the problem loans and other assets in its portfolio to determine whether any require classification in accordance with the Corporation’s policy and applicable regulations. As of December 31, 2016, the Corporation’s classified and criticized assets amounted to $12.8 million or 1.9% of total assets, with $6.0 million identified as special mention and $6.8 million classified as substandard.

Included in classified and criticized assets at December 31, 2016 are two large loan relationships exhibiting credit deterioration that may impact the ability of the borrowers to comply with their present loan repayment terms on a timely basis.

K-6

The first relationship, with an outstanding balance of $4.5 million at December 31, 2016, consists of three commercial business loans. The loans are secured by lien positions on the accounts receivable, inventory and equipment of the borrower. In 2015, the borrower experienced significant gross margin compression due to rapid growth, write-off of obsolete inventory and job bidding mistakes, which resulted in deficit cash flows for the period. All obsolete inventory has been eliminated and bidding practices have been overhauled. Interim performance for 2016 indicates that gross margins are on pace to return to historical levels, with cash flow on pace to be adequate for debt service requirements. All loans have remained current, due in part to available liquidity on the borrower’s balance sheet and the rapid turnaround in operating performance. At December 31, 2016, the loans were performing and classified as special mention. The rating and classification will be re-evaluated upon receipt and review of 2016 financial statements.

The second loan, with an outstanding balance of $2.6 million at December 31, 2016, was originated for the construction of a hotel, restaurant and retail plaza secured by such property and the borrower’s personal residence. The hotel, restaurant and retail plaza are complete and operational. However, cash flows from operations have not been consistent and are impacted by the seasonal nature of the hotel. In addition, the borrower has limited liquidity. As a result, the borrower has listed substantial real estate holdings for sale. At December 31, 2016, the loan was performing and classified as substandard. Ultimately, due to the estimated value of the borrower’s significant real estate holdings, the Corporation does not currently expect to incur a loss on this loan.

The following table sets forth information regarding the Corporation’s nonperforming assets as of December 31:



(Dollar amounts in thousands)	2016			2015			2014			2013			2012

Allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans	166.87		%	169.60		%	75.25		%	93.51		%	76.56		%

Allowance for Loan Losses. Management establishes allowances for estimated losses on loans based upon its evaluation of the pertinent factors underlying the types and quality of loans; historical loss experience based on volume and types of loans; trend in portfolio volume and composition; level and trend of nonperforming assets; detailed analysis of individual loans for which full collectability may not be assured; determination of the existence and realizable value of the collateral and guarantees securing such loans and the current economic conditions affecting the collectability of loans in the portfolio. The Corporation analyzes its loan portfolio at least quarterly for valuation purposes and to determine the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses. Based upon the factors discussed above, management believes that the Corporation’s allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2016 of $5.5 million was adequate to cover probable incurred losses in the portfolio at such time.

Sources of Funds

General. Deposits are the primary source of the Corporation’s funds for lending and investing activities. Secondary sources of funds are derived from loan repayments, investment maturities and borrowed funds. Loan repayments can be considered a relatively stable funding source, while deposit activity is greatly influenced by interest rates and general market conditions. The Corporation also has access to funds through other various sources. For additional information about the Corporation’s sources of funds, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity” in Item 7.

Deposits. The Corporation offers a wide variety of deposit account products to both consumer and commercial deposit customers, including time deposits, noninterest bearing and interest bearing demand deposit accounts, savings deposits and money market accounts.

Deposit products are promoted in periodic newspaper, radio and other forms of advertisements, along with notices provided in customer account statements. The Corporation’s marketing strategy is based on its reputation as a community bank that provides quality products and personalized customer service.

The Corporation sets interest rates on its interest bearing deposit products that are competitive with rates offered by other financial institutions in its market area. Management reviews interest rates on deposits bi-weekly and considers a number of factors, including: (1) the Corporation’s internal cost of funds; (2) rates offered by competing financial institutions; (3) investing and lending opportunities; and (4) the Corporation’s liquidity position.

Personnel

At December 31, 2016, the Corporation had 131 full time equivalent employees, compared to 122 at December 31, 2015. There is no collective bargaining agreement between the Corporation and its employees, and the Corporation believes its relationship with its employees is satisfactory.

Competition

The Corporation competes for loans, deposits and customers with other commercial banks, savings and loan associations, securities and brokerage companies, mortgage companies, insurance companies, finance companies, money market funds, credit unions and other nonbank financial service providers.

Supervision and Regulation

General. Bank holding companies and banks are extensively regulated under both federal and state law. Set forth below is a summary description of certain provisions of certain laws that relate to the regulation of the Corporation and the Bank. The description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the applicable laws and regulations.

The Corporation. The Corporation is a registered bank holding company and subject to regulation and examination by the FRB under the BHCA. The Corporation is required to file periodic reports with the FRB and such additional information as the FRB may require. Recent changes to the Bank Holding Company rating system emphasize risk management and evaluation of the potential impact of non-depository entities on safety and soundness.

The FRB may require the Corporation to terminate an activity or terminate control of or liquidate or divest certain subsidiaries, affiliates or investments when the FRB believes the activity or the control of the subsidiary or affiliate constitutes a significant risk to the financial safety, soundness or stability of any of its banking subsidiaries. The FRB also has the authority to regulate provisions of certain bank holding company debt, including the authority to impose interest rate ceilings and reserve requirements on such debt. Under certain circumstances, the Corporation must file written notice and obtain FRB approval prior to purchasing or redeeming its equity securities.

The Corporation is required to obtain prior FRB approval for the acquisition of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of any class of voting securities or substantially all of the assets of any bank or bank holding company. Prior FRB approval is also required for the merger or consolidation of the Corporation and another bank holding company.

K-11

The BHCA generally prohibits a bank holding company from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the outstanding voting shares of any company that is not a bank or bank holding company and from engaging directly or indirectly in activities other than those of banking, managing or controlling banks, or furnishing services to its subsidiaries. However, subject to the prior FRB approval, a bank holding company may engage in any, or acquire shares of companies engaged in, activities that the FRB deems to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto.

The BHCA also authorizes bank holding companies to engage in securities, insurance and other activities that are financial in nature or incidental to a financial activity. In order to undertake these activities, a bank holding company must become a financial holding company by submitting to the appropriate FRB a declaration that the company elects to be a financial holding company and a certification that all of the depository institutions controlled by the company are well capitalized and well managed. The Corporation submitted the declaration of election to become a financial holding company with the FRB of Cleveland in February 2007, and the election became effective in March 2007. Recent federal legislation also directed federal regulators to require depository institution holding companies to serve as a source of strength for their depository institution subsidiaries.

Under FRB regulations, the Corporation is required to serve as a source of financial and managerial strength to the Bank and may not conduct operations in an unsafe or unsound manner. In addition, it is the FRB’s policy that a bank holding company should stand ready to use available resources to provide adequate capital funds to its subsidiary banks during periods of financial stress or adversity and should maintain the financial flexibility and capital raising capacity to obtain additional resources for assisting its subsidiary banks. A bank holding company’s failure to meet its obligations to serve as a source of strength to its subsidiary banks will generally be considered by the FRB to be an unsafe and unsound banking practice or a violation of FRB regulations or both.

The Corporation is also a bank holding company within the meaning of the Pennsylvania Banking Code. As such, the Corporation and its subsidiaries are subject to examination by, and may be required to file reports with, the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities.

The Corporation’s securities are registered with the SEC under the Exchange Act. As such, the Corporation is subject to the information, proxy solicitation, insider trading, corporate governance, and other requirements and restrictions of the Exchange Act. The public may obtain all forms and information filed with the SEC through its website http://www.sec.gov.

In December 2013, federal regulators adopted final rules to implement the provisions of the Dodd Frank Act commonly referred to as the Volcker Rule and established July 21, 2015 as the end of the conformance period. The regulations contain prohibitions and restrictions on the ability of financial institutions, holding companies and their affiliates to engage in proprietary trading and to hold certain interests in, or to have certain relationships with, various types of investment funds, including hedge funds and private equity funds.

The Bank. As a national banking association, the Bank is subject to primary supervision, examination and regulation by the OCC. The Bank is also subject to regulations of the FDIC as administrator of the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) and the FRB. If, as a result of an examination of the Bank, the OCC should determine that the financial condition, capital resources, asset quality, earnings prospects, management, liquidity or other aspects of the Bank’s operations are unsatisfactory or that the Bank is violating or has violated any law or regulation, various remedies are available to the OCC. Such remedies include the power to enjoin “unsafe or unsound practices,” to require affirmative action to correct any conditions resulting from any violation or practice, to issue an administrative order that can be judicially enforced, to direct an increase in capital, to restrict the Bank’s growth, to assess civil monetary penalties, and to remove officers and directors. The FDIC has similar enforcement authority, in addition to its authority to terminate the Bank’s deposit insurance in the absence of action by the OCC and upon a finding that the Bank is operating in an unsafe or unsound condition, is engaging in unsafe or unsound activities, or that the Bank’s conduct poses a risk to the deposit insurance fund or may prejudice the interest of its depositors.

A national bank may have a financial subsidiary engaged in any activity authorized for national banks directly or certain permissible activities. Generally, a financial subsidiary is permitted to engage in activities that are “financial in nature” or incidental thereto, even though they are not permissible for the national bank itself. The definition of “financial in nature” includes, among other items, underwriting, dealing in or making a market in securities, including, for example, distributing shares of mutual funds. The subsidiary may not, however, engage as principal in underwriting insurance, issue annuities or engage in real estate development or investment or merchant banking.

K-12

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 established a comprehensive framework to modernize and reform the oversight of public company auditing, improve the quality and transparency of financial reporting by those companies and strengthen the independence of auditors. Among other things, the legislation (i) created a public company accounting oversight board that is empowered to set auditing, quality control and ethics standards, to inspect registered public accounting firms, to conduct investigations and to take disciplinary actions, subject to SEC oversight and review; (ii) strengthened auditor independence from corporate management by limiting the scope of consulting services that auditors can offer their public company audit clients; (iii) heightened the responsibility of public company directors and senior managers for the quality of the financial reporting and disclosure made by their companies; (iv) adopted a number of provisions to deter wrongdoing by corporate management; (v) imposed a number of new corporate disclosure requirements; (vi) adopted provisions which generally seek to limit and expose to public view possible conflicts of interest affecting securities analysis; and (vii) imposed a range of new criminal penalties for fraud and other wrongful acts and extended the period during which certain types of lawsuits can be brought against a company or its insiders.

2010 Regulatory Reform. On July 21, 2010, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 was signed into law. The goals of the Dodd-Frank Act included restoring public confidence in the financial system following the financial crisis, preventing another financial crisis and permitting regulators to identify shortfalls in the system before another financial crisis can occur. The Dodd Frank Act is also intended to promote a fundamental restructuring of federal banking regulation by taking a systemic view of regulation rather than focusing on regulation of individual financial institutions.

Many of the provisions in the Dodd Frank Act require that regulatory agencies draft implementing regulations. Implementation of the Dodd Frank Act has had and will continue to have a broad impact on the financial services industry by introducing significant regulatory and compliance changes including, among other things: (i) changing the assessment base for federal deposit insurance from the amount of insured deposits to average consolidated total assets less average tangible equity, eliminating the ceiling and increasing the size of the floor of the DIF and offsetting the impact of the increase in the minimum floor on institutions with less than $10 billion in assets; (ii) making permanent the $250,000 limit for federal deposit insurance and increasing the cash limit of Securities Investor Protection Corporation protection to $250,000; (iii) eliminating the requirement that the FDIC pay dividends from the DIF when the reserve ratio is between 1.35% and 1.50%, but continuing the FDIC’s authority to declare dividends when the reserve ratio at the end of a calendar year is at least 1.50%; however, the FDIC is granted sole discretion in determining whether to suspend or limit the declaration or payment of dividends; (iv) repealing the federal prohibition on payment of interest on demand deposits, thereby permitting depository institutions to pay interest on business transaction and other accounts; (v) implementing certain corporate governance revisions that apply to all public companies, including regulations that require publicly traded companies to give shareholders a non-binding advisory vote to approve executive compensation, commonly referred to as a “say-on-pay” vote and an advisory role on so-called “golden parachute” payments in connection with approvals of mergers and acquisitions; new director independence requirements and considerations to be taken into account by compensation committees and their advisers relating to executive compensation; additional executive compensation disclosures; and a requirement that companies adopt a policy providing for the recovery of executive compensation in the event of a restatement of its financial statements, commonly referred to as a “clawback” policy; (vi) centralizing responsibility for consumer financial protection by creating a new independent federal agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) responsible for implementing federal consumer protection laws to be applicable to all depository institutions; (vii) imposing new requirements for mortgage lending, including new minimum underwriting standards, limitations on prepayment penalties and imposition of new mandated disclosures to mortgage borrowers; (viii) imposing new limits on affiliate transactions and causing derivative transactions to be subject to lending limits and other restrictions including adoption of the “Volcker Rule” regulating transactions in derivative securities; (ix) limiting debit card interchange fees that financial institutions with $10 billion or more in assets are permitted to charge their customers; and (x) implementing regulations to incentivize and protect individuals, commonly referred to as whistleblowers to report violations of federal securities laws.

Many aspects of the Dodd Frank Act continue to be subject to rulemaking and will take effect over several additional years, making it difficult to anticipate the overall financial impact on us or across the industry. The changes resulting from the Dodd Frank Act may impact the profitability of our business activities, require changes to certain of our business practices, impose upon us more stringent capital, liquidity and leverage requirements or otherwise adversely affect our business.

Anti-Money Laundering. All financial institutions, including national banks, are subject to federal laws that are designed to prevent the use of the U.S. financial system to fund terrorist activities. Financial institutions operating in the United States must develop anti-money laundering compliance programs, due diligence policies and controls to ensure the detection and reporting of money laundering. Such compliance programs are intended to supplement compliance requirements, also applicable to financial institutions, under the Bank Secrecy Act and the Office of Foreign Assets Control Regulations. The Bank has established policies and procedures to ensure compliance with these provisions.

K-13

Privacy. Federal banking rules limit the ability of banks and other financial institutions to disclose non-public information about consumers to nonaffiliated third parties. Pursuant to these rules, financial institutions must provide (i) initial notices to customers about their privacy policies, describing conditions under which they may disclose nonpublic personal information to nonaffiliated third parties and affiliates; (ii) annual notices of their privacy policies to current customers and (iii) a reasonable method for customers to “opt out” of disclosures to nonaffiliated third parties. These privacy provisions affect how consumer information is transmitted through diversified financial companies and conveyed to outside vendors. The Corporation’s privacy policies have been implemented in accordance with the law.

Dividends and Other Transfers of Funds. Dividends from the Bank constitute the principal source of income to the Corporation. The Corporation is a legal entity separate and distinct from the Bank. The Bank is subject to various statutory and regulatory restrictions on its ability to pay dividends to the Corporation. In addition, the Bank’s regulators have the authority to prohibit the Bank from paying dividends, depending upon the Bank’s financial condition, if such payment is deemed to constitute an unsafe or unsound practice.

Limitations on Transactions with Affiliates. Transactions between national banks and any affiliate are governed by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act. An affiliate of a national bank includes any company or entity which controls the national bank or that is controlled by a company that controls the national bank. In a holding company context, the holding company of a national bank (such as the Corporation) and any companies which are controlled by such holding company are affiliates of the national bank. Generally, Section 23A limits the extent to which the national bank of its subsidiaries may engage in “covered transactions” with any one affiliate to an amount equal to 10% of such bank’s capital stock and surplus, and contains an aggregate limit on all such transactions with all affiliates to an amount equal to 20% of such capital stock and surplus. Section 23B applies to “covered transactions” as well as certain other transactions and requires that all transactions be on terms substantially the same, or at least favorable, to the national bank as those provided to a non-affiliate. The term “covered transaction” includes the making of loans to, purchase of assets from and issuance of a guarantee to an affiliate and similar transactions. Section 23B transactions also include the provision of services and the sale of assets by a national bank to an affiliate.

In addition, Sections 22(g) and (h) of the Federal Reserve Act place restrictions on loans to executive officers, directors and principal shareholders of the national bank and its affiliates. Under Section 22(h), loans to a director, an executive officer and to a greater than 10% shareholder of a national bank, and certain affiliated interests of either, may not exceed, together with all other outstanding loans to such person and affiliated interests, the national bank’s loans to one borrower limit (generally equal to 15% of the bank’s unimpaired capital and surplus). Section 22(h) also requires that loans to directors, executive officers and principal shareholders be made on terms substantially the same as offered in comparable transactions to other persons unless the loans are made pursuant to a benefit or compensation program that (i) is widely available to employees of the bank and (ii) does not give preference to any director, executive officer or principal shareholder, or certain affiliated interests of either, over other employees of the national bank. Section 22(h) also requires prior board approval for certain loans. In addition, the aggregate amount of extensions of credit by a national bank to all insiders cannot exceed the bank’s unimpaired capital and surplus. Furthermore, Section 22(g) places additional restrictions on loans to executive officers. The Bank currently is subject to Sections 22(g) and (h) of the Federal Reserve Act and at December 31, 2016, was in compliance with the above restrictions.

Loans to One Borrower Limitations. With certain limited exceptions, the maximum amount that a national bank may lend to any borrower (including certain related entities of the borrower) at one time may not exceed 15% of the unimpaired capital and surplus of the institution, plus an additional 10% of unimpaired capital and surplus for loans fully secured by readily marketable collateral. At December 31, 2016, the Bank’s loans-to-one-borrower limit was $8.8 million based upon the 15% of unimpaired capital and surplus measurement. The Bank may grant credit to borrowers in excess of the legal lending limit as part of the Legal Lending Limit Pilot Program approved by the OCC which allows the Bank to exceed its legal lending limit within certain parameters. At December 31, 2016, the Bank’s largest single lending relationship had an outstanding balance of $6.9 million.

Capital Standards. The Bank is required to comply with applicable capital adequacy standards established by the federal banking agencies. Beginning on January 1, 2015, the Bank became subject to a new comprehensive capital framework for U.S. banking organizations. In July 2013, the Federal Reserve Board, FDIC and OCC adopted a final rule that implements the Basel III changes to the international regulatory capital framework. The Basel III rules include requirements contemplated by the Dodd Frank Act as well as certain standards initially adopted by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in December 2010.

K-14

The Basel III rules include new risk-based and leverage capital ratio requirements that refine the definition of what constitutes “capital” for purposes of calculating those ratios. The minimum capital level requirements are (i) a new common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 4.5%; (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6% (increased from 4%); (iii) a total risk-based capital ratio of 8% (unchanged from previous rules); and (iv) a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4% for all institutions. Common equity Tier 1 capital will consist of retained earnings and common stock instruments, subject to certain adjustments.

The Basel III rules also establish a fully-phased “capital conservation buffer” of 2.5% above the new regulatory minimum risk-based capital requirements. The conversation buffer, when added to the capital requirements, results in the following minimum ratios: (i) a common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 7.0%, (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 8.5% and (iii) a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.5%. The new capital conservation buffer requirement is to be phased in beginning January 2016 at 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and will increase by that amount each year until fully implemented in January 2019. An institution is subject to limitations on certain activities including payment of dividends, share repurchases and discretionary bonuses to executive officers if its capital level is below the buffer amount.

The Basel III rules also revise the prompt corrective action framework, which is designed to place restrictions on insured depository institutions if their capital levels do not meet certain thresholds. These revisions were effective January 1, 2015. The prompt corrective action rules were modified to include a common equity Tier 1 capital component and to increase certain other capital requirements for the various thresholds. Under the proposed prompt corrective action rules, insured depository institutions are required to meet the following capital levels in order to qualify as “well capitalized”: (i) a new common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6.5%; (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 8% (increased from 6%); (iii) a total risk-based capital ratio of 10% (unchanged from previous rules); and (iv) a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5% (unchanged from previous rules).

The Basel III rules set forth certain changes in the methods of calculating risk-weighted assets, which in turn affect the calculation of risk based ratios. Under the Basel III rules, higher or more sensitive risk weights are assigned to various categories of assets including certain credit facilities that finance the acquisition, development or construction of real property, certain exposures of credits that are 90 days past due or on nonaccrual, foreign exposures and certain corporate exposures. In addition, Basel III rules include (i) alternate standards of credit worthiness consistent with the Dodd Frank Act; (ii) greater recognition of collateral guarantees and (iii) revised capital treatment for derivatives and repo-style transactions.

In addition, the final rule includes certain exemptions to address concerns about the regulatory burden on community banks. Banking organizations with less than $15 billion in consolidated assets as of December 31, 2009 are permitted to include in Tier 1 capital trust preferred securities and cumulative perpetual preferred stock issued and included in Tier 1 capital prior to May 19, 2010 on a permanent basis without any phase out. Community banks were required to make this election by their March 31, 2015 quarterly filings with the appropriate federal regulator to opt-out of the requirement to include most accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) components in the calculation of Common equity Tier 1 capital and in effect retain the AOCI treatment under the current capital rules. The Bank made in its March 31, 2015 quarterly filing a one-time permanent election to continue to exclude accumulated other comprehensive income from capital. If it would not have made this election, unrealized gains and losses would have been included in the calculation of its regulatory capital.

The Basel III rules generally became effective beginning January 1, 2015; however, certain calculations under the Basel III rules have phase-in periods. In 2015, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System amended its Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement by increasing the policy’s consolidated assets threshold from $500 million to $1 billion. The primary benefit of being deemed a "small bank holding company" is the exemption from the requirement to maintain consolidated regulatory capital ratios; instead, regulatory capital ratios only apply at the subsidiary bank level.

Prompt Corrective Action and Other Enforcement Mechanisms. Federal banking agencies possess broad powers to take corrective and other supervisory action to resolve the problems of insured depository institutions, including but not limited to those institutions that fall below one or more prescribed minimum capital ratios. Each federal banking agency has promulgated regulations defining the following five categories in which an insured depository institution will be placed, based on its capital ratios: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized. At December 31, 2016, the Bank exceeded the required ratios for classification as “well capitalized.”

An institution that, based upon its capital levels, is classified as well capitalized, adequately capitalized, or undercapitalized may be treated as though it were in the next lower capital category if the appropriate federal banking agency, after notice and opportunity for hearing, determines that an unsafe or unsound condition or an unsafe or unsound practice warrants such treatment. At each successive lower capital category, an insured depository institution is subject to more restrictions. The federal banking agencies, however, may not treat a significantly undercapitalized institution as critically undercapitalized.

In addition to measures taken under the prompt corrective action provisions, commercial banking organizations may be subject to potential enforcement actions by the federal regulators for unsafe or unsound practices in conducting their businesses or for violations of any law, rule, regulation, or any condition imposed in writing by the agency or any written agreement with the agency. Finally, pursuant to an interagency agreement, the FDIC can examine any institution that has a substandard regulatory examination score or is considered undercapitalized – without the permission of the institution’s primary regulator.

K-16

Safety and Soundness Standards. The federal banking agencies have adopted guidelines designed to assist the federal banking agencies in identifying and addressing potential safety and soundness concerns before capital becomes impaired. The guidelines set forth operational and managerial standards relating to: (i) internal controls, information systems and internal audit systems, (ii) loan documentation, (iii) credit underwriting, (iv) asset growth, (v) earnings, and (vi) compensation, fees and benefits. In addition, the federal banking agencies have also adopted safety and soundness guidelines with respect to asset quality and earnings standards. These guidelines provide six standards for establishing and maintaining a system to identify problem assets and prevent those assets from deteriorating. Under these standards, an insured depository institution should: (i) conduct periodic asset quality reviews to identify problem assets, (ii) estimate the inherent losses in problem assets and establish reserves that are sufficient to absorb estimated losses, (iii) compare problem asset totals to capital, (iv) take appropriate corrective action to resolve problem assets, (v) consider the size and potential risks of material asset concentrations, and (vi) provide periodic asset quality reports with adequate information for management and the board of directors to assess the level of asset risk. These guidelines also set forth standards for evaluating and monitoring earnings and for ensuring that earnings are sufficient for the maintenance of adequate capital and reserves.

Insurance of Accounts. Deposit accounts are currently insured by the DIF generally up to a maximum of $250,000 per separately insured depositor. As insurer, the FDIC is authorized to conduct examinations of, and to require reporting by, insured institutions. It also may prohibit any insured institution from engaging in any activity determined by regulation or order to pose a serious threat to the FDIC. The FDIC also has the authority to initiate enforcement actions against insured institutions.

The Dodd Frank Act raises the minimum reserve ratio of the DIF from 1.15% to 1.35% and requires the FDIC to offset the effect of this increase on insured institutions with assets of less than $10 billion (small institutions). In March 2016, the FDIC adopted a rule to accomplish this by imposing a surcharge on larger institutions commencing when the reserve ratio reaches 1.15% and ending when it reaches 1.35%. The reserve ratio reached 1.15% effective as of June 30, 2016. The surcharge period began effective July 1, 2016 and is expected to end by December 31, 2018. Small institutions will receive credits for the portion of their regular assessments that contributed to growth in the reserve ratio between 1.15% and 1.35%. The credits will apply to reduce regular assessments by 2.0 basis points for quarters when the reserve ratio is at least 1.38%.

Effective July 1, 2016, the FDIC adopted changes that eliminated its risk-based premium system. Under the new premium system, the FDIC assesses deposit insurance premiums on the assessment base of a depository institution, which is its average total assets reduced by the amount of its average tangible equity. For a small institution (one with assets of less than $10 billion) that has been federally insured for at least five years, effective July 1, 2016, the initial base assessment rate ranges from 3 to 30 basis points, based on the institution’s CAMELS composite and component ratings and certain financial ratios; its leverage ratio; its ratio of net income before taxes to total assets; its ratio of nonperforming loans and leases to gross assets; its ratio of other real estate owned to gross assets; its brokered deposits ratio (excluding reciprocal deposits if the institution is well capitalized and has a CAMELS composite rating of 1 or 2); its one year asset growth ratio (which penalizes growth adjusted for mergers in excess of 10%); and its loan mix index (which penalizes higher risk loans based on historical industry charge off rates). The initial base assessment rate is subject to downward adjustment (not below 1.5%) based on the ratio of unsecured debt the institution has issued to its assessment base, and to upward adjustment (which can cause the rate to exceed 30 basis points) based on its holdings of unsecured debt issued by other insured institutions. Institutions with assets of $10 billion or more are assessed using a scorecard method.

In addition, all FDIC insured institutions are required to pay assessments to the FDIC at an annual rate of approximately six tenths of a basis point of insured deposits to fund interest payments on bonds issued by the Financing Corporation, an agency of the federal government established to recapitalize the predecessor to the Savings Association Insurance Fund. These assessments will continue until the Financing Corporation bonds mature in 2017 through 2019.

Under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, the FDIC may terminate deposit insurance upon a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe and unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule order or condition imposed by the FDIC.

Interstate Banking and Branching. Banks have the ability, subject to certain state restrictions, to acquire, by acquisition or merger, branches outside its home state. In addition, recent federal legislation permits a bank headquartered in Pennsylvania to enter another state through de novo branching (as compared to an acquisition) if under the state law in the state which the proposed branch is to be located a state-chartered institution would be permitted to establish the branch. Interstate branches are subject to certain laws of the states in which they are located. Competition may increase further as banks branch across state lines and enter new markets.

K-17

Consumer Protection Laws and Regulations. The bank regulatory agencies are focusing greater attention on compliance with consumer protection laws and their implementing regulations. Examination and enforcement have become more intense in nature, and insured institutions have been advised to carefully monitor compliance with such laws and regulations. The Bank is subject to many federal consumer protection statutes and regulations, some of which are discussed below.

The Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) is intended to encourage insured depository institutions, while operating safely and soundly, to help meet the credit needs of their communities. The CRA specifically directs the federal regulatory agencies, in examining insured depository institutions, to assess a bank’s record of helping meet the credit needs of its entire community, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods, in a manner consistent with safe and sound banking practices. On September 1, 2005, the federal banking agencies amended the CRA regulations to (i) establish the definition of “Intermediate Small Bank” as an institution with total assets of $250 million to $1 billion, without regard to any holding company; and (ii) take into account abusive lending practices by a bank or its affiliates in determining a bank’s CRA rating. The CRA further requires the agencies to take a financial institution’s record of meeting its community credit needs into account when evaluating applications for, among other things, domestic branches, mergers or acquisitions, or holding company formations. The agencies use the CRA assessment factors in order to provide a rating to the financial institution. The ratings range from a high of “outstanding” to a low of “substantial noncompliance.” In its last examination for CRA compliance, as of September 10, 2015, the Bank was rated “satisfactory.”

The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), as amended by the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 (FACTA), requires financial firms to help deter identity theft, including developing appropriate fraud response programs, and give consumers more control of their credit data. It also reauthorizes a federal ban on state laws that interfere with corporate credit granting and marketing practices. In connection with the FACTA, financial institution regulatory agencies proposed rules that would prohibit an institution from using certain information about a consumer it received from an affiliate to make a solicitation to the consumer, unless the consumer has been notified and given a chance to opt out of such solicitations. A consumer’s election to opt out would be applicable for at least five years.

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the federal bank regulatory agencies and the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) have issued regulations (the Red Flag Rules) requiring financial institutions and creditors to develop and implement written identity theft prevention programs as part of the FACTA. The programs were required to be in place by May 1, 2009 and must provide for the identification, detection and response to patterns, practices or specific activities – known as red flags – that could indicate identity theft. These red flags may include unusual account activity, fraud alerts on a consumer report or attempted use of suspicious account application documents. The program must also describe appropriate responses that would prevent and mitigate the crime and detail a plan to update the program. The program must be managed by the Board of Directors or senior employees of the institution or creditor, include appropriate staff training and provide oversight of any service providers.

The Check Clearing for the 21st Century Act (Check 21) facilitates check truncation and electronic check exchange by authorizing a new negotiable instrument called a “substitute check,” which is the legal equivalent of an original check. Check 21, effective October 28, 2004, does not require banks to create substitute checks or accept checks electronically; however, it does require banks to accept a legally equivalent substitute check in place of an original.

The Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA) generally prohibits discrimination in any credit transaction, whether for consumer or business purposes, on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, marital status, age (except in limited circumstances), receipt of income from public assistance programs, or good faith exercise of any rights under the Consumer Credit Protection Act.

The Truth in Lending Act (TILA) is designed to ensure that credit terms are disclosed in a meaningful way so that consumers may compare credit terms more readily and knowledgeably. As a result of the TILA, all creditors must use the same credit terminology to express rates and payments, including the annual percentage rate, the finance charge, the amount financed, the total of payments and the payment schedule, among other things.

The Fair Housing Act (FHA) regulates many practices, including making it unlawful for any lender to discriminate in its housing-related lending activities against any person because of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, handicap or familial status. A number of lending practices have been found by the courts to be, or may be considered, illegal under the FHA, including some that are not specifically mentioned in the FHA itself.

K-18

The Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) grew out of public concern over credit shortages in certain urban neighborhoods and provides public information that will help show whether financial institutions are serving the housing credit needs of the neighborhoods and communities in which they are located. The HMDA also includes a “fair lending” aspect that requires the collection and disclosure of data about applicant and borrower characteristics as a way of identifying possible discriminatory lending patterns and enforcing anti-discrimination statutes.

The term “predatory lending,” much like the terms “safety and soundness” and “unfair and deceptive practices,” is far-reaching and covers a potentially broad range of behavior. As such, it does not lend itself to a concise or a comprehensive definition. Generally speaking, predatory lending involves at least one, and perhaps all three, of the following elements (i) making unaffordable loans based on the assets of the borrower rather than on the borrower’s ability to repay an obligation (“asset-based lending”); (ii) inducing a borrower to refinance a loan repeatedly in order to charge high points and fees each time the loan is refinanced (“loan flipping”); and (iii) engaging in fraud or deception to conceal the true nature of the loan obligation from an unsuspecting or unsophisticated borrower.

FRB regulations aimed at curbing such lending significantly widened the pool of high-cost home-secured loans covered by the Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994, a federal law that requires extra disclosures and consumer protections to borrowers. Lenders that violate the rules face cancellation of loans and penalties equal to the finance charges paid.

Effective April 8, 2005, OCC guidelines require national banks and their operating subsidiaries to comply with certain standards when making or purchasing loans to avoid predatory or abusive residential mortgage lending practices. Failure to comply with the guidelines could be deemed an unsafe and unsound or unfair or deceptive practice, subjecting the bank to supervisory enforcement actions.

Finally, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA) requires lenders to provide borrowers with disclosures regarding the nature and cost of real estate settlements. Also, RESPA prohibits certain abusive practices, such as kickbacks, and places limitations on the amount of escrow accounts. Penalties under the above laws may include fines, reimbursements and other penalties. Due to heightened regulatory concern related to compliance with the CRA, FACTA, TILA, FHA, ECOA, HMDA and RESPA generally, the Bank may incur additional compliance costs or be required to expend additional funds for investments in its local community.

Federal Home Loan Bank System. The Bank is a member of the FHLB. Among other benefits, each FHLB serves as a reserve or central bank for its members within its assigned region. Each FHLB is financed primarily from the sale of consolidated obligations of the FHLB system. Each FHLB makes available loans or advances to its members in compliance with the policies and procedures established by the Board of Directors of the individual FHLB. As an FHLB member, the Bank is required to own a certain amount of capital stock in the FHLB. At December 31, 2016, the Bank was in compliance with the stock requirements.

Federal Reserve System. The FRB requires all depository institutions to maintain noninterest bearing reserves at specified levels against their transaction accounts (primarily checking) and non-personal time deposits. At December 31, 2016, the Bank was in compliance with these requirements.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis represents a review of the Corporation’s consolidated financial condition and results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. This review should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements beginning on page F-3.

Overview

The Corporation reported consolidated net income available to common stockholders of $4.0 million, or $1.85 per diluted common share, for 2016, compared to $4.1 million, or $2.05 per diluted common share, for 2015. Net income available to common stockholders was impacted by the following:

•

Net interest income increased $1.7 million, or 9.8%, in 2016. This increase primarily related to an increase in interest income of $2.8 million, or 13.8%, partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $1.1 million, or 39.2%. Driving the increase in interest income was an $84.4 million increase in the average balance of loans. The increase in interest expense was driven by increases in the Corporation's average balances of interest-bearing deposits and borrowed funds of $52.5 million and $16.0 million, respectively. The increases in the Corporation's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities includes the impact of the UASB acquisition, which added $66.1 million in loans and $72.7 million in deposits at the time of the acquisition.


•	Noninterest income decreased $439,000, or 10.7%, in 2016. Net gains realized on the sale of securities decreased $772,000, or 90.4%, to $82,000 in 2016 from $854,000 in 2015, while fees and service charges and gains on loans sold to the FHLB increased $139,000 and $119,000, respectively.

•

Noninterest expense increased $1.3 million, or 7.9%, to $17.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 from $16.2 million for 2015. The increase primarily related to increases in compensation and benefits, other noninterest expense, acquisition costs and premises and equipment of $407,000, $269,000, $267,000 and $198,000, respectively. Acquisition costs related to the UASB acquisition totaled $401,000 in 2016 and $134,000 in 2015. Contributing to the increase in noninterest expense was the addition of the UASB branch in April 2016 and the opening of a new branch banking office in Aspinwall, Pennsylvania in August 2016.

Changes in Financial Condition

Total assets increased $91.5 million, or 15.2%, to $692.1 million at December 31, 2016 from $600.6 million at December 31, 2015. This increase primarily related to increases in net loans receivable and cash and equivalents of $85.5 million and $6.0 million, respectively, partially offset by a decrease in securities available for sale of $11.4 million. Liabilities increased $90.3 million, or 16.5%, to $638.1 million at December 31, 2016 from $547.8 million at December 31, 2015 due to an increase in customer deposits of $95.1 million, partially offset by a $5.3 million decrease in borrowed funds. Loans and deposits acquired from UASB totaled $66.1 million and $72.7 million, respectively, at the time of the acquisition in April 2016.

Cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents increased $6.0 million, or 52.2%, to $17.6 million at December 31, 2016 from $11.5 million at December 31, 2015. This increase primarily resulted from an increase in customer deposits, partially offset by the funding of loans and the repayment of borrowed funds.

K-21

Securities. Securities decreased $11.4 million, or 10.1%, to $101.6 million at December 31, 2016 from $113.0 million at December 31, 2015. This decrease primarily resulted from investment security sales, maturities, calls and repayments totaling $29.4 million, partially offset by purchases totaling $18.5 million during the year.

Loans receivable. Net loans receivable increased $85.5 million, or 19.9%, to $515.4 million at December 31, 2016 from $429.9 million at December 31, 2015. The increase was driven by growth in the Corporation’s residential mortgage, commercial mortgage and home equity portfolios of $58.9 million, $37.3 million and $3.9 million, respectively, partially offset by decreases in the home equity and consumer portfolios of $14.2 million and $70,000, respectively. Loans acquired from UASB totaled $66.1 million at the time of the acquisition in April 2016 and $58.9 million at December 31, 2016. The growth of the Corporation’s residential mortgage portfolio also included a loan pool purchase totaling $6.9 million.

Nonperforming assets. Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans, loans 90 days past due and still accruing, repossessions and real estate owned. Nonperforming assets were $3.6 million, or 0.52% of total assets, at December 31, 2016 compared to $3.2 million, or 0.54% of total assets, at December 31, 2015. Nonperforming assets consisted of nonperforming loans and real estate owned of $3.3 million and $291,000, respectively, at December 31, 2016 and $3.1 million and $160,000, respectively, at December 31, 2015. At December 31, 2016, nonperforming loans consisted primarily of residential mortgage, commercial mortgage and commercial business loans.

Federal bank stocks. Federal bank stocks were comprised of FHLB stock and FRB stock of $3.6 million and $1.3 million, respectively, at December 31, 2016. These stocks are purchased and redeemed at par as directed by the federal banks and levels maintained are based primarily on borrowing and other correspondent relationships between the Corporation and the Federal Banks.

Bank-owned life insurance (BOLI). The Corporation maintains single premium life insurance policies on certain current and former officers and employees of the Bank. In addition to providing life insurance coverage, whereby the Bank as well as the officers and employees receive life insurance benefits, the appreciation of the cash surrender value of the BOLI will serve to offset and finance existing and future employee benefit costs. Increases in this account are typically associated with an increase in the cash surrender value of the policies, partially offset by certain administrative expenses. BOLI increased $334,000, or 3.0%, to $11.4 million at December 31, 2016 from $11.1 million at December 31, 2015.

Premises and equipment. Premises and equipment increased $2.2 million, or 13.5%, to $18.3 million at December 31, 2016 from $16.1 million at December 31, 2015. The overall increase in premises and equipment during the year was due to capital expenditures of $3.3 million, partially offset by depreciation and amortization of $1.1 million. Additions for 2016 included $1.2 million of fixed assets acquired from UASB and the purchase of facilities and equipment related to the new branch banking office in Aspinwall, Pennsylvania, which opened in August 2016.

Goodwill. Goodwill increased $6.6 million to $10.3 million at December 31, 2016 from $3.7 million at December 31, 2015. During 2016, the Corporation recorded $6.6 million of goodwill related to the acquisition of UASB. Goodwill represents the excess of the total purchase price paid for the acquisition over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired, net of the fair value of the liabilities assumed. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment at least annually and more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Management evaluated goodwill and concluded that no impairment existed at December 31, 2016.

Core deposit intangible. The core deposit intangible was $560,000 at December 31, 2016, compared to $554,000 at December 31, 2015. During 2016, the Corporation recorded a core deposit intangible of $232,000 related to the UASB acquisition. The core deposit intangible also includes amounts associated with the assumption of deposits in the 2009 Titusville branch acquisition. This asset represents the long-term value of the core deposits acquired. In each instance, the fair value was determined using a third-party valuation expert specializing in estimating fair values of core deposit intangibles. The fair value was derived using an industry standard financial instrument present value methodology. All-in costs and runoff balances by year were discounted by comparable term FHLB advance rates, used as an alternative cost of funds measure. This intangible asset amortizes utilizing the double declining balance method of amortization over a weighted average estimated life of the related deposits. The core deposit intangible asset is not estimated to have a significant residual value. The Corporation recorded $226,000 and $195,000 of intangible amortization in 2016 and 2015, respectively.

K-22

Deposits. Total deposits increased $95.1 million, or 19.4%, to $584.9 million at December 31, 2016 from $489.9 million at December 31, 2015. Noninterest bearing deposits increased $3.9 million, or 3.3%, during the year while interest bearing deposits increased $91.1 million, or 24.6%. Deposits assumed from UASB totaled $72.7 million at the time of the acquisition in April 2016 and $57.7 million at December 31, 2016. Also contributing to the increase in deposits were municipal customers depositing funds in early 2016 after not receiving timely payments of anticipated government funding at the end of 2015 due to the Pennsylvania state budget impasse.

Borrowed funds. Borrowed funds decreased $5.3 million, or 10.7%, to $44.0 million at December 31, 2016 from $49.3 million at December 31, 2015. Borrowed funds at December 31, 2016 consisted of short-term borrowings of $9.5 million and long-term borrowings of $30.0 million. Long-term advances are utilized primarily to fund loan growth and short-term advances are utilized primarily to compensate for the normal deposit fluctuations.

Stockholders’ equity. Stockholders’ equity increased $1.2 million, or 2.3%, to $54.1 million at December 31, 2016 from $52.8 million at December 31, 2015. The increase primarily related to a $1.8 million increase in retained earnings as a result of net income totaling $4.0 million, less dividends paid of $2.2 million. This increase was partially offset by a $729,000 decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income resulting from changes in the net unrealized losses on securities available for sale and the funded status of the Corporation’s defined benefit plan.

Changes in Results of Operations

The Corporation reported net income before preferred stock dividends of $4.0 million and $4.2 million in 2016 and 2015, respectively. The following “Average Balance Sheet and Yield/Rate Analysis” and “Analysis of Changes in Net Interest Income” tables should be utilized in conjunction with the discussion of the interest income and interest expense components of net interest income.

K-23

Average Balance Sheet and Yield/Rate Analysis. The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, information concerning the total dollar amounts of interest income from interest-earning assets and the resulting average yields, the total dollar amounts of interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities and the resulting average costs, net interest income, interest rate spread and the net interest margin earned on average interest-earning assets. For purposes of this table, average loan balances include nonaccrual loans and exclude the allowance for loan losses and interest income includes accretion of net deferred loan fees. Interest and yields on tax-exempt loans and securities (tax-exempt for federal income tax purposes) are shown on a fully tax equivalent basis. The information is based on average daily balances during the periods presented.

Analysis of Changes in Net Interest Income. The following table analyzes the changes in interest income and interest expense in terms of: (1) changes in volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and (2) changes in yields and rates. The table reflects the extent to which changes in the Corporation’s interest income and interest expense are attributable to changes in rate (change in rate multiplied by prior year volume), changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior year rate) and changes attributable to the combined impact of volume/rate (change in rate multiplied by change in volume). The changes attributable to the combined impact of volume/rate are allocated on a consistent basis between the volume and rate variances. Changes in interest income on loans and securities reflect the changes in interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis.

2016 Results Compared to 2015 Results

The Corporation reported net income before preferred stock dividends of $4.0 million and $4.2 million for 2016 and 2015, respectively. The $168,000, or 4.0%, decrease in net income was attributed to increases in noninterest expense, the provision for income taxes and the provision for loan losses of $1.3 million, $107,000 and $83,000, respectively, and a decrease in noninterest income of $439,000, partially offset by an increase in net interest income of $1.7 million. Returns on average equity and assets were 7.32% and 0.60%, respectively, for 2016.

Net interest income. The primary source of the Corporation’s revenue is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income on earning assets, such as loans and securities, and interest expense on liabilities, such as deposits and borrowed funds, used to fund the earning assets. Net interest income is impacted by the volume and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and changes in the level of interest rates. Tax equivalent net interest income increased $1.6 million to $20.1 million for 2016, compared to $18.4 million for 2015. This increase in net interest income can be attributed to an increase in tax equivalent interest income of $2.7 million, partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $1.1 million.

Interest income. Tax equivalent interest income increased $2.7 million, or 12.9%, to $24.0 million for 2016, compared to $21.3 million for 2015. This increase can be attributed to increases in interest earned on loans and deposits with banks and dividends received on federal bank stocks of $530,000 and $19,000, respectively, partially offset by decreases in securities and interest earning cash equivalents of $3.2 million, $67,000 and $22,000, respectively.

Tax equivalent interest earned on loans receivable increased $3.2 million, or 17.9%, to $21.2 million for 2016, compared to $18.0 million for 2015. The average balance of loans increased $84.4 million, or 21.1%, generating $3.7 million of additional interest income on loans. Offsetting this favorable variance, the average yield on loans decreased 12 basis points to 4.36% for 2016, versus 4.48% for 2015 causing a $474,000 decrease in interest income.

K-25

Tax equivalent interest earned on securities decreased $564,000, or 18.2%, to $2.5 million for 2016, compared to $3.1 million for 2015. The average balance of securities decreased $31.7 million, or 22.8%, causing a $738,000 decrease in interest income. Partially offsetting the unfavorable volume variance, the average yield on securities increased 13 basis points to 2.36% for 2016 versus 2.23% for 2015 causing a $174,000 increase in interest income.

Interest earned on interest-earning deposit accounts increased $67,000, or 98.5%, to $135,000 for 2016, compared to $68,000 for 2015. The average balance of interest-earning deposits increased $13.2 million causing a $70,000 increase in interest income. Partially offsetting this unfavorable variance, the average yield on these accounts decreased 2 basis points to 0.53% for 2016 versus 0.55% for 2015 causing a $3,000 decrease in interest income.

Interest earned on federal bank stocks increased $22,000, or 13.4%, to $186,000 for 2016, compared to $164,000 for 2015. The average balance of federal bank stocks increased $1.3 million, or 55.4%, generating a $74,000 increase in interest income. Partially offsetting this favorable variance, the average yield on these accounts decreased 183 basis points to 4.95% for 2016 versus 6.78% for 2015 causing a $52,000 decrease in interest income.

Interest expense. Interest expense increased $1.1 million, or 39.2%, to $3.9 million for 2016, compared to $2.8 million for 2015. This increase can be attributed to increases in interest expense on interest-bearing deposits and borrowing funds of $647,000 and $463,000, respectively.

Interest expense on deposits increased $647,000, or 30.2%, to $2.8 million for 2016, compared to $2.1 million for 2015. The average rate on interest-bearing deposits increased by 8 basis points to 0.63% for 2016 versus 0.55% for 2015 causing a $339,000 increase in interest expense. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased $52.5 million, or 13.4%, causing a $308,000 increase in interest expense.

Interest expense on borrowed funds increased $463,000, or 67.0%, to $1.2 million for 2016, compared to $691,000 for 2015. The average balance of borrowed funds increased $16.0 million, or 74.4%, to $37.5 million for 2016, compared to $21.5 million for 2015 causing a $559,000 increase in interest expense. This increase resulted primarily from the addition of four $5.0 million long-term advances late in the fourth quarter of 2015, one of which was repaid during the second quarter of 2016. Partially offsetting this unfavorable variance, the average cost of borrowed funds decreased 13 basis points to 3.08% for 2016 versus 3.21% for 2015 causing a $96,000 decrease in interest expense. This was primarily the result of the relatively lower cost of the borrowings added late in 2015.

Provision for loan losses. The Corporation records provisions for loan losses to maintain a level of total allowance for loan losses that management believes, to the best of its knowledge, covers all probable incurred losses estimable at each reporting date. Management considers historical loss experience, the present and prospective financial condition of borrowers, current conditions (particularly as they relate to markets where the Corporation originates loans), the status of nonperforming assets, the estimated underlying value of the collateral and other factors related to the collectability of the loan portfolio.

Nonperforming loans increased $254,000, or 8.3%, to $3.3 million at December 31, 2016 from $3.1 million at December 31, 2015. The increase in nonperforming loans was primarily related to a $557,000 loan being placed on nonaccrual status during the year, partially offset by the payoff of a $161,000 nonperforming loan.

The provision for loan losses increased $83,000, or 21.8%, to $464,000 for 2016 from $381,000 for 2015. The Corporation’s allowance for loan losses amounted to $5.5 million, or 1.06% of the Corporation’s total loan portfolio at December 31, 2016 compared to $5.2 million or 1.20% of total loans at December 31, 2015. The allowance for loan losses, as a percentage of nonperforming loans at December 31, 2016 and 2015, was 166.9% and 169.6%, respectively. The allocation of the allowance for loan losses related to residential mortgage loans and commercial mortgage loans increased during the year as a result of growth in the loan portfolios, while the allocation related to commercial business loans decreased as the portfolio decreased. At December 31, 2016, there was no provision for loan losses allocated to loans acquired in the acquisition of UASB in April 2016. If the loans acquired from UASB with balances of $58.9 million were excluded, the ratio of allowance to total loans at the December 31, 2016 would have been 1.20%.

K-26

Noninterest income. Noninterest income includes revenue that is related to services rendered and activities conducted in the financial services industry, including fees on depository accounts, general transaction and service fees, commissions on financial services, title premiums, security and loan sale gains and losses, and earnings on bank-owned life insurance (BOLI). Noninterest income decreased $439,000, or 10.7%, to $3.7 million in 2016 from $4.1 million in 2015. This decrease was primarily due to a $772,000 decrease in gains on the sale of securities. In 2016, the Corporation realized securities gains of $82,000 compared to $854,000 realized in 2015, of which $298,000 related to the sale of community bank stock and $556,000 related to the sale of securities to accommodate loan growth. Partially offsetting this decrease in noninterest income, fees and service charges and other noninterest income increased by $139,000 and $11,000, respectively. Additionally, the Corporation recognized $119,000 in gains on loans sold to the FHLB during 2016.

Noninterest expense. Noninterest expense increased $1.3 million, or 7.9%, to $17.4 million for 2016, compared to $16.2 million for 2015. This increase was primarily related to increases in compensation and employee benefits, other noninterest expense, acquisition costs, premises and equipment expense, professional fees, federal deposit insurance and intangible asset amortization.

The largest component of noninterest expense, compensation and employee benefits, increased $407,000, or 5.0%, to $8.6 million for 2016, compared to $8.2 million for 2015. This increase primarily related to normal wage and salary increases and an increase in retirement benefits expense as well as the addition of two branch offices acquired or opened during the year.

Other noninterest expense increased $269,000, or 7.1%, to $4.0 million for 2016, compared to $3.8 million for 2015. Included in other noninterest expense for 2016 was $71,000 in prepayment penalties incurred in the second quarter of 2016 associated with the early retirement of a $5.0 million FHLB long-term advance. Additionally, printing and office supplies, telephone and communications expense, marketing expense, postage, and correspondent and courier fees increased $63,000, $50,000, $47,000, $45,000 and $40,000, respectively, partially due to normal operating increases and the additional two branch offices during the year.

Acquisition costs increased $267,000 to $401,000 for 2016, compared to $134,000 for 2015. Acquisition costs for both years were related to the acquisition of UASB which was completed on April 30, 2016. Acquisition costs for 2016 included legal fees, system conversion costs and other costs of $194,000, $132,000 and $75,000, respectively.

Premises and equipment expense increased $198,000, or 7.5%, to $2.8 million for 2016, compared to $2.7 million for 2015. This increase primarily related to expenses associated with the Bank’s new branch offices and an increase in depreciation expense due to an upgrade to the Bank’s mainframe and disaster recovery equipment in late 2015.

The Corporation recognized $226,000 of intangible amortization in 2016, compared to $195,000 in 2015 associated with core deposit intangible assets that were recorded in connection with the 2009 Titusville branch acquisition and the 2016 UASB acquisition.

The provision for income taxes increased $107,000, or 9.4%, to $1.2 million for 2016, compared to $1.1 million for 2015 primarily due to an increase in taxable income. The difference between the statutory rate of 34% and the Corporation’s effective tax rate of 23.8% for 2016 was due to tax-exempt income earned on certain tax-free loans and securities and bank-owned life insurance.

Market Risk Management

Market risk for the Corporation consists primarily of interest rate risk exposure and liquidity risk. The Corporation is not subject to currency exchange risk or commodity price risk, and has no trading portfolio, and therefore, is not subject to any trading risk. In addition, the Corporation does not participate in hedging transactions such as interest rate swaps and caps. Changes in interest rates will impact both income and expense recorded and also the market value of long-term interest-earning assets.

The primary objective of the Corporation’s asset liability management function is to maximize the Corporation’s net interest income while simultaneously maintaining an acceptable level of interest rate risk given the Corporation’s operating environment, capital and liquidity requirements, balance sheet mix, performance objectives and overall business focus. One of the primary measures of the exposure of the Corporation’s earnings to interest rate risk is the timing difference between the repricing or maturity of interest-earning assets and the repricing or maturity of its interest-bearing liabilities.

K-27

The Corporation’s Board of Directors has established a Finance Committee, consisting of four outside directors, the President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Principal Accounting Officer (PAO), to monitor market risk, including primarily interest rate risk. This committee, which meets at least quarterly, generally establishes and monitors the investment, interest rate risk and asset liability management policies of the Corporation.

In order to minimize the potential for adverse affects of material and prolonged changes in interest rates on the Corporation’s results of operations, the Corporation’s management team has implemented and continues to monitor asset liability management policies to better match the maturities and repricing terms of the Corporation’s interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Such policies have consisted primarily of (i) originating adjustable-rate mortgage loans; (ii) originating short-term secured commercial loans with the rate on the loan tied to the prime rate or reset features in which the rate changes at determined intervals; (iii) emphasizing investment in shorter-term (expected duration of five years or less) investment securities; (iv) selling longer-term (30-year) fixed-rate residential mortgage loans in the secondary market; (v) maintaining a high level of liquid assets (including securities classified as available for sale) that can be readily reinvested in higher yielding investments should interest rates rise; (vi) emphasizing the retention of lower-costing savings accounts and other core deposits; and (vii) lengthening liabilities and locking in lower borrowing rates with longer terms whenever possible.

Interest Rate Sensitivity Gap Analysis

The implementation of asset and liability initiatives and strategies and compliance with related policies, combined with other external factors such as demand for the Corporation’s products and economic and interest rate environments in general, has resulted in the Corporation maintaining a one-year cumulative interest rate sensitivity gap within internal policy limits of between a positive and negative 15% of total assets. The one-year interest rate sensitivity gap is identified as the difference between the Corporation’s interest-earning assets that are scheduled to mature or reprice within one year and its interest-bearing liabilities that are scheduled to mature or reprice within one year.

The interest rate sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or repricing within a specific time period and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within that time period. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate-sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate-sensitive liabilities, and is considered negative when the amount of interest rate-sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest rate-sensitive assets. Generally, during a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap would adversely affect net interest income while a positive gap would result in an increase in net interest income. Conversely, during a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap would result in an increase in net interest income and a positive gap would adversely affect net interest income. The closer to zero, or more neutral, that gap is maintained, generally, the lesser the impact of market interest rate changes on net interest income.

Based on certain assumptions derived from the Corporation’s historical experience, at December 31, 2016, the Corporation’s interest-earning assets maturing or repricing within one year totaled $188.9 million while the Corporation’s interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within one year totaled $192.2 million, providing an excess of interest-bearing liabilities over interest-earning assets of $3.3 million or 0.5% of total assets. At December 31, 2016, the percentage of the Corporation’s assets to liabilities maturing or repricing within one year was 98.3%.

K-28

The following table presents the amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities outstanding as of December 31, 2016 which are expected to mature, prepay or reprice in each of the future time periods presented:



(Dollar amounts in thousands)	Six months			Six months			One to			Three to			Over
	or less			to one year			three years			four years			four years			Total
Total interest-earning assets	$	135,637		$	53,291		$	166,258		$	59,447		$	222,289		$	636,922

Total interest-bearing liabilities	94,503			97,708			204,217			26,312			77,979			500,719

Interest rate sensitivity gap	$	41,134		$	(44,417	)	$	(37,959	)	$	33,135		$	144,310		$	136,203

Cumulative rate sensitivity gap	$	41,134		$	(3,283	)	$	(41,242	)	$	(8,107	)	$	136,203

Ratio of gap during the period to total interest earning assets	6.46		%	(6.97		)%	(5.96		)%	5.20		%	22.66		%

Ratio of cumulative gap to total interest earning assets	6.46		%	(0.52		)%	(6.48		)%	(1.27		)%	21.38		%

Although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. The interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag behind changes in market interest rates. In the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the table. The ability of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase.

Interest Rate Sensitivity Simulation Analysis

The Corporation also utilizes income simulation modeling in measuring its interest rate risk and managing its interest rate sensitivity. The Finance Committee of the Board of Directors believes that simulation modeling enables the Corporation to more accurately evaluate and manage the possible effects on net interest income due to the exposure to changing market interest rates and different loan and security prepayment and deposit decay assumptions under various interest rate scenarios.

As with gap analysis and earnings simulation modeling, assumptions about the timing and variability of cash flows are critical in net portfolio equity valuation analysis. Particularly important are the assumptions driving mortgage prepayments and the assumptions about expected attrition of the core deposit portfolios. These assumptions are based on the Corporation’s historical experience.

The Corporation has established the following guidelines for assessing interest rate risk:

Net interest income simulation. Given a 200 basis point immediate increase or decrease in market interest rates, net interest income may not change by more than 15% for a one-year period.

Economic value of equity simulation. Economic value of equity is the present value of the Corporation’s existing assets less the present value of the Corporation’s existing liabilities. Given a 200 basis point immediate and permanent increase or decrease in market interest rates, economic value of equity may not correspondingly decrease or increase by more than 20%.

These guidelines take into consideration the current interest rate environment, the Corporation’s financial asset and financial liability product mix and characteristics and liquidity sources among other factors. Given the current rate environment, a drop in short-term market interest rates of 200 basis points immediately or over a one-year horizon would seem unlikely. This should be considered in evaluating modeling results outlined in the table below.

K-29

The following table presents the simulated impact of a 100 basis point or 200 basis point upward or downward shift of market interest rates on net interest income for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. This analysis was done assuming that the interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability levels at December 31, 2016 remained constant. The impact of the market rate movements on net interest income was developed by simulating the effects of rates changing immediately for a one-year period from the December 31, 2016 levels for net interest income.



	Increase				Decrease
	+100 BP		+200 BP		-100 BP		-200 BP
2016 Net interest income - increase (decrease)	(0.77	)%	(1.90	)%	(2.56	)%	(6.48	)%

2015 Net interest income - increase (decrease)	(0.36	)%	(1.14	)%	(2.80	)%	(6.67	)%

The expected decrease in net interest income in the rising rate scenarios shown in the table above resulted from the Corporation having overnight borrowings of $7.0 million and $14.5 million at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. In a rising rate environment, these borrowings would be immediately repricing, therefore causing increased interest expense.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The consolidated financial statements of the Corporation and related notes presented herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) which require the measurement of financial condition and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation.

Unlike most industrial companies, substantially all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on a financial institution’s performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services since such prices are affected by inflation to a larger degree than interest rates. In the current interest rate environment, liquidity and the maturity structure of the Corporation’s assets and liabilities are critical to the maintenance of acceptable performance levels.

Capital Resources

Total stockholders’ equity increased $1.2 million, or 2.3%, to $54.1 million at December 31, 2016 from $52.8 million at December 31, 2015. Net income before preferred stock dividends of $4.0 million in 2016 represented a decrease in earnings of $168,000, or 4.0%, compared to 2015.

The Corporation’s capital to assets ratio decreased to 7.8% at December 31, 2016 from 8.8% at December 31, 2015. This was due to a $91.5 million increase in the Corporation's assets primarily related to the acquisition of UASB during 2016. To prepare for this asset growth, during the second quarter of 2015, the Corporation raised $8.2 million in capital, net of expenses, through the issuance of 350,000 shares of common stock in a private placement offering to accredited investors. Also, during the third quarter of 2015, the Corporation utilized a portion of the proceeds of the stock offering to redeem the remaining $5.0 million of preferred stock issued to the U.S. Treasury under the SBLF program.

While continuing to sustain a strong capital position, dividends on common stock increased to $2.2 million in 2016 from $1.9 million in 2015. In addition, stockholders have taken part in the Corporation’s dividend reinvestment plan introduced during 2003 with 44% of registered shareholder accounts active in the plan at December 31, 2016. Dividend reinvestment is achieved through the purchase of common shares on the secondary market.

Capital adequacy is intended to enhance the Corporation’s ability to support growth while protecting the interest of stockholders and depositors and to ensure that capital ratios are in compliance with regulatory minimum requirements. Regulatory agencies have developed certain capital ratio requirements that are used to assist them in monitoring the safety and soundness of financial institutions. At December 31, 2016, the Bank was in excess of all regulatory capital requirements. See Note 12 to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements attached hereto.

K-30

Liquidity

The Corporation’s primary sources of funds generally have been deposits obtained through the offices of the Bank, borrowings from the FHLB, and amortization and prepayments of outstanding loans and maturing securities. During 2016, the Corporation used its sources of funds primarily to fund loan commitments and repay borrowed funds. As of December 31, 2016, the Corporation had outstanding loan commitments, including undisbursed loans and amounts available under credit lines, totaling $92.5 million, and standby letters of credit totaling $76,000, net of collateral maintained by the Bank. The Bank is required by the OCC to establish policies to monitor and manage liquidity levels to ensure the Bank’s ability to meet demands for customer withdrawals and the repayment of short-term borrowings, and at December 31, 2016, the Bank was in compliance with all liquidity policy limits.

At December 31, 2016, time deposits amounted to $157.0 million, or 26.8%, of the Corporation’s total consolidated deposits, including approximately $47.1 million scheduled to mature within the next year. Management believes that the Corporation has adequate resources to fund all of its commitments, that all of its commitments will be funded as required by related maturity dates and that, based upon past experience and current pricing policies, it can adjust the rates of time deposits to retain a substantial portion of maturing liabilities.

Aside from liquidity available from customer deposits or through sales and maturities of securities, the Corporation and the Bank have alternative sources of funds. These sources include a line of credit for the Corporation with a correspondent bank, the Bank’s line of credit and term borrowing capacity from the FHLB and, to a more limited extent, through the sale of loans. At December 31, 2016, the Bank’s borrowing capacity with the FHLB, net of funds borrowed and irrevocable standby letters of credit issued to secure certain deposit accounts, was $122.5 million.

The Corporation pays a regular quarterly cash dividend. The Corporation paid dividends of $0.26 and $0.24 per common share for each of the four quarters of 2016 and 2015, respectively. On February 15, 2017, the Corporation declared a quarterly dividend of $0.27 per common share payable on March 17, 2017 to shareholders of record on March 1, 2017. The determination of future dividends on the Corporation’s common stock will depend on conditions existing at that time with consideration given to the Corporation’s earnings, capital and liquidity needs, among other factors.

Management is not aware of any conditions, including any regulatory recommendations or requirements, which would adversely impact its liquidity or its ability to meet funding needs in the ordinary course of business.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Corporation’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and follow general practices within the industry in which it operates. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates or judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; accordingly, as this information changes, the financial statements could reflect different estimates or judgments. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, and as such, have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported. Estimates or judgments are necessary when assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value, when a decline in the value of an asset not carried on the financial statements at fair value warrants an impairment write-down or valuation reserve to be established, or when an asset or liability needs to be recorded contingent upon a future event. Carrying assets and liabilities at fair value inherently results in more financial statement volatility. The fair values and the information used to record valuation adjustments for certain assets and liabilities are based either on quoted market prices or are provided by third-party sources, when available. When third-party information is not available, valuation adjustments are estimated in good faith by management primarily though the use of internal cash flow modeling techniques.

The most significant accounting policies followed by the Corporation are presented in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the other financial statement notes, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the financial statements and how those values are determined. Management views critical accounting policies to be those which are highly dependent on subjective or complex judgments, estimates and assumptions, and where changes in those estimates and assumptions could have a significant impact on the financial statements. Management has identified the following as critical accounting policies:

K-31

Allowance for loan losses. The Corporation considers that the determination of the allowance for loan losses involves a higher degree of judgment and complexity than other significant accounting policies. The balance in the allowance for loan losses is determined based on management’s review and evaluation of the loan portfolio in relation to past loss experience, the size and composition of the portfolio, current economic events and conditions and other pertinent factors, including management’s assumptions as to future delinquencies, recoveries and losses. All of these factors may be susceptible to significant change. Among the many factors affecting the allowance for loan losses, some are quantitative while others require qualitative judgment. Although management believes its process for determining the allowance adequately considers all of the potential factors that could potentially result in credit losses, the process includes subjective elements and may be susceptible to significant change. To the extent actual outcomes differ from management’s estimates, additional provisions for loan losses may be required that would adversely impact the Corporation’s financial condition or earnings in future periods.

Other-than-temporary impairment. Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic, market or other concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions and (4) whether the Corporation has the intent to sell the security or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery.

Goodwill and intangible assets. Goodwill represents the excess cost over fair value of assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually. Intangible assets with estimable useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values. Goodwill is subject to ongoing periodic impairment tests based on the fair value of the reporting unit compared to its carrying amount, including goodwill. Impairment exists when a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value. At November 30, 2016, the required annual impairment test of goodwill was performed and no impairment existed as of the valuation date. If for any future period it is determined that there has been impairment in the carrying value of our goodwill balances, the Corporation will record a charge to earnings, which could have a material adverse effect on net income, but not risk based capital ratios.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

Emclaire Financial Corp

Emlenton, Pennsylvania

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Emclaire Financial Corp as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of net income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Corporation is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Emclaire Financial Corp as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


1.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Emclaire Financial Corp (the Corporation) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, The Farmers National Bank of Emlenton (the Bank) and Emclaire Settlement Services, LLC (the Title Company). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Nature of Operations. The Corporation provides a variety of financial services to individuals and businesses through its offices in Western Pennsylvania. Its primary deposit products are checking, savings and term certificate accounts and its primary lending products are residential and commercial mortgages, commercial business loans and consumer loans.

Use of Estimates and Classifications. In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain amounts previously reported may have been reclassified to conform to the current year financial statement presentation. Such reclassifications did not affect net income or stockholders’ equity.

Significant Group Concentrations of Credit Risk. Most of the Corporation’s activities are with customers located within the Western Pennsylvania region of the country. Note 4 discusses the type of securities that the Corporation invests in. Note 5 discusses the types of lending the Corporation engages in. The Corporation does not have any significant concentrations to any one industry or customer.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash items, interest-earning deposits with other financial institutions and federal funds sold and due from correspondent banks. Interest-earning deposits are generally short-term in nature and are carried at cost. Federal funds are generally sold or purchased for one day periods. Net cash flows are reported for loan and deposit transactions, short term borrowings and purchases and redemptions of federal bank stocks.

Dividend Restrictions. Banking regulations require maintaining certain capital levels and may limit the dividends paid by the Bank to the Corporation or by the Corporation to stockholders.

Securities Available for Sale. Debt securities are classified as available for sale when they might be sold before maturity. Equity securities with readily determinable fair values are classified as available for sale. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income, net of tax.

Interest income from securities includes amortization of purchase premium or discount. Premiums and discounts on securities are amortized using the level yield method over the term of the securities. Gains and losses on sales are recorded on the trade date and determined using the specific identification method.

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment (OTTI) at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic, market or other concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions and (4) whether the Corporation has the intent to sell the security or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before the recovery of its amortized cost basis. If the Corporation intends to sell an impaired security, or if it is more likely than not the Corporation will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery, the Corporation records an other-than-temporary loss in an amount equal to the entire difference between fair value and amortized cost through earnings. Otherwise, only the credit portion of the estimated loss on debt securities is recognized in earnings, with the other portion of the loss recognized in other comprehensive income. For equity securities determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired, the entire amount of impairment is recognized through earnings.

Loans Receivable. The Corporation grants mortgage, commercial and consumer loans to customers. A substantial portion of the loan portfolio is represented by loans collateralized by real estate located throughout Western Pennsylvania. The ability of the Corporation’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon real estate and general economic conditions in this area.

1.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans or premiums or discounts on purchased loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, and premiums and discounts are deferred and recognized in interest income as an adjustment of the related loan yield using the interest method.

The accrual of interest on all classes of loans is typically discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days past due unless the credit is well secured and in the process of collection. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. Nonaccrual loans and loans past due 90 days still on accrual include both smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and individually classified as impaired loans. All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual status or charged-off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for a return to accrual status. Loans are returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is established for probable incurred credit losses through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are typically credited to the allowance.

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

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Loans for which the terms have been modified resulting in a concession, and for which the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties, are considered troubled debt restructurings (TDR) and classified as impaired.

Factors considered by management in determining impairment on all loan classes include demonstrated ability to repay, payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.

Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Large groups of small balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Corporation does not separately identify individual consumer and residential mortgage loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement.

TDR’s are separately identified for impairment disclosures and are measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s effective rate at inception. If a TDR is considered to be a collateral dependent loan, the loan is reported, net, at the fair value of collateral. For TDR’s that subsequently default, the Corporation determines the amount of reserves in accordance with accounting policies for the allowance for loan losses.

The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired. The general component covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors. The historical loss experience is determined by portfolio segment and is based on the actual loss history experienced by the Corporation over the prior 12 quarters. Qualitative factors considered by management include national and local economic and business conditions, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, quality of loan review systems, and changes in trends, volume and severity of past due, nonaccrual and classified loans, and loss and recovery trends. The Corporation’s portfolio segments are as follows:

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


1.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Residential mortgages: Residential mortgage loans are loans to consumers utilized for the purchase, refinance or construction of a residence. Changes in interest rates or market conditions may impact a borrower’s ability to meet contractual principal and interest payments.

Home equity loans and lines of credit: Home equity loans and lines of credit are credit facilities extended to homeowners who wish to utilize the equity in their property in order to borrow funds for almost any consumer purpose. Property values may fluctuate due to economic and other factors.

Commercial real estate: Commercial real estate loans are subject to underwriting standards and processes similar to commercial loans. These loans are viewed primarily as cash flow loans and the repayment of these loans is largely dependent on the successful operation of the property. Loan performance may be adversely affected by factors impacting the general economy or conditions specific to real estate markets such as geographic location and property type.

Commercial business: Commercial credit is extended to business customers for use in normal operations to finance working capital needs, equipment purchases or other projects. The majority of these borrowers are customers doing business within our geographic region. These loans are generally underwritten individually and secured with the assets of the company and the personal guarantee of the business owners. Commercial loans are made based primarily on the historical and projected cash flow of the borrower and the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. The cash flows of borrowers, however, may not behave as forecasted and collateral securing loans may fluctuate in value due to economic or individual performance factors.

Consumer: Consumer loans are loans to an individual for non-business purposes such as automobile purchases or debt consolidation. These loans are originated based primarily on credit scores and debt-to-income ratios which may be adversely affected by economic or individual performance factors.

Loans Held for Sale. Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or fair value, as determined by outstanding commitments from investors. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recorded as a valuation allowance and charged to earnings. Mortgage loans held for sale are generally sold with servicing retained. The carrying value of mortgage loans sold is reduced by the amount allocated to the servicing right. Gains and losses on sales of mortgages are based on the difference between the selling price and the carrying value of the related loan sold.

Federal Bank Stocks. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (FHLB) and the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland (FRB). As a member of these federal banking systems, the Bank maintains an investment in the capital stock of the respective regional banks. These stocks are held at cost and classified as restricted stock. These stocks are purchased and redeemed at par as directed by the federal banks and levels maintained are based primarily on borrowing and other correspondent relationships. These stocks are periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as income.

Bank-Owned Life Insurance (BOLI). The Bank purchased life insurance policies on certain key officers and employees. BOLI is recorded at the amount that can be realized under the insurance contract at the balance sheet date, which is the cash surrender value adjusted for other charges or other amounts due that are probable at settlement.

Premises and Equipment. Land is carried at cost. Premises, furniture and equipment, and leasehold improvements are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortization. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which are twenty-five years to forty years for buildings and three to ten years for furniture and equipment. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of their estimated useful life or the expected term of the leases. Expected terms include lease option periods to the extent that the exercise of such option is reasonably assured. Premises and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events indicate their carrying amount may not be recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows. If impaired, assets are recorded at fair value.

1.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Goodwill and Intangible Assets. Goodwill results from business acquisitions and represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities. Core deposit intangible assets arise from whole bank or branch acquisitions and are measured at fair value and then are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Customer relationship intangible assets arise from the purchase of a customer list from another company or individual and then are amortized on a straight-line basis over two years. Goodwill is not amortized but is assessed at least annually for impairment. Any such impairment will be recognized in the period identified. The Corporation has selected November 30 as the date to perform the annual impairment test. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life on the Corporation’s balance sheet.

Servicing Assets. Servicing assets represent the allocated value of retained servicing rights on loans sold. Servicing assets are expensed in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing revenues. Impairment is evaluated based on the fair value of the assets, using groupings of the underlying loans as to interest rates. Fair value is determined using prices for similar assets with similar characteristics, when available, or based upon discounted cash flows using market-based assumptions. Any impairment of a grouping is reported as a valuation allowance, to the extent that fair value is less than the capitalized amount for a grouping.

Other Real Estate Acquired Through Foreclosure (OREO). Real estate properties acquired through foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less cost to sell when acquired, thereby establishing a new cost basis for the asset. These assets are subsequently accounted for at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. If fair value declines subsequent to foreclosure, a valuation allowance is recorded through expense. Revenue and expenses from operations of the properties, gains and losses on sales and additions to the valuation allowance are included in operating results. Real estate acquired through foreclosure is classified in prepaid expenses and other assets and totaled $291,000 and $160,000 at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Loans secured by residential real estate properties for which formal foreclosure proceedings are in process totaled $1.5 million and $1.3 million at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Treasury Stock. Common stock purchased for treasury is recorded at cost. At the date of subsequent reissue, the treasury stock account is reduced by the cost of such stock on the first-in, first-out basis.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax amounts for the temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Corporation recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

Earnings Per Common Share (EPS). Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS includes the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under stock options and restricted stock awards.

Comprehensive Income. Comprehensive income includes net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income (loss) is comprised of unrealized holding gains and losses on securities available for sale and changes in the funded status of pension which are also recognized as separate components of equity.

Operating Segments. Operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a corporate-wide basis. Accordingly, all financial services operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment.

Retirement Plans. The Corporation maintains a noncontributory defined benefit plan covering eligible employees and officers. Effective January 1, 2009 the plan was closed to new participants. The Corporation provided the requisite notice to plan participants on March 12, 2013 of the determination to freeze the plan (curtailment). While the freeze was not effective until April 30, 2013, the Corporation determined that participants would not satisfy, within the provisions of the plan, 2013 eligibility requirements based on minimum hours worked for 2013. Therefore, employees ceased to earn benefits as of January 1, 2013. This amendment to the plan will not affect benefits earned by the participant prior to the date of the freeze. The Corporation also maintains a 401(k) plan, which covers substantially all employees, and a supplemental executive retirement plan for key executive officers.

1.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Stock Compensation Plans. Compensation expense is recognized for stock options and restricted stock awards issued based on the fair value of these awards at the date of grant. A Black-Scholes model is utilized to estimate the fair value of stock options, while the market price of the Corporation’s common stock at the date of grant is used for restricted stock awards. Compensation expense is recognized over the required service period, generally defined as the vesting period. It is the Corporation’s policy to issue shares on the vesting date for restricted stock awards. Unvested restricted stock awards do not receive dividends declared by the Corporation.

Transfers of Financial Assets. Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Corporation, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Corporation does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments. In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation has entered into off-balance sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit, commitments under line of credit lending arrangements and letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the financial statements when they are funded.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in a separate note. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect these estimates.

Loss Contingencies. Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there currently are such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements.

Newly Issued Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards. In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-9 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. ASU 2014-9 provides guidance that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, which defers the effective date of this standard to annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017; however, early adoption is permitted for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. ASU 2014-9 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation's financial statements.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-1 “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. ASU 2016-1 revises the accounting for the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and revises the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. For equity securities, the guidance in ASU 2016-1 requires equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. For financial liabilities that are measured at fair value in accordance with the fair value option, the guidance requires presenting in other comprehensive income the change in fair value that relates to a change in instrument-specific credit risk. ASU 2016-1 also eliminates the disclosure assumptions used to estimate fair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost and requires disclosure of an exit price notion in determining the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost. ASU 2016-1 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. ASU 2016-1 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation's financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 "Leases". This ASU requires lessees to record most leases on their balance sheet but recognize expenses in the income statement in a manner similar to current accounting treatment. This ASU changes the guidance on sale-leaseback transactions, initial direct costs and lease execution costs, and, for lessors, modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein. Entities are required to use a modified retrospective approach for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 on its financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


1.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09 "Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting". ASU 2016-09 simplifies certain aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classifications of awards either as equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein. The Corporation does not expect ASU 2016-09 to have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”. ASU 2016-13 significantly changes the way impairment of financial instruments is recognized by requiring immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of the financial instruments. The main provisions of the guidance include (1) replacing the “incurred loss” approach under current GAAP with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost, (2) requiring entities to record an allowance for available-for-sale debt securities rather than reduce the carrying amount of the investments, as is required by the other-than-temporary impairment model under current GAAP, and (3) a simplified accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. The ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this ASU on its financial statements and disclosures.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force”. ASU 2016-15 clarifies the presentation of specific types of cash flow receipts and payments, including the payment of debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, contingent consideration cash payments paid subsequent to the acquisition date and proceeds from settlement of BOLI policies. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and is to be applied under a retrospective approach, if practicable. The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-15 on its financial statements and disclosures.


2.	Issuance of Common Stock

On June 10, 2015, the Corporation sold 350,000 shares of common stock, par value $1.25 per share, in a private offering to accredited individual and institutional investors at $23.50 per share. The Corporation realized $8.2 million in proceeds from the offering, net of $63,000 of direct costs relating to the offering.


3.	Participation in the Small Business Lending Fund (SBLF) of the U.S. Treasury Department (U.S. Treasury)

On August 18, 2011, the Corporation entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the Agreement) with the U.S. Treasury Department, pursuant to which the Corporation issued and sold to the U.S. Treasury 10,000 shares of Senior Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B (Series B Preferred Stock), having a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, for aggregate proceeds of $10.0 million, pursuant to the U.S. Treasury’s SBLF program. On September 17, 2013, with the approval of the Corporation’s primary federal banking regulator, the Corporation redeemed 5,000 shares, or 50%, of its Series B Preferred Stock held by the U.S. Treasury at an aggregate redemption price of $5.0 million, plus accrued but unpaid dividends. On September 30, 2015, the Corporation redeemed the remaining 5,000 shares of its Series B Preferred Stock held by the U.S. Treasury at an aggregate redemption price of $5.0 million, plus accrued but unpaid dividends. Following this redemption, the Corporation does not have any Series B Preferred Stock outstanding.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


4.	Securities (continued)

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic, market or other conditions warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions and (4) whether the Corporation has the intent to sell the security or more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If the Corporation intends to sell an impaired security, or if it is more likely than not the Corporation will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery, the Corporation records an other-than-temporary loss in an amount equal to the entire difference between fair value and amortized cost. Otherwise, only the credit portion of the estimated loss on debt securities is recognized in earnings, with the other portion of the loss recognized in other comprehensive income. For equity securities determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired, the entire amount of impairment is recognized through earnings.

There was one equity security in an unrealized loss position for more than 12 months as of December 31, 2016. Equity securities owned by the Corporation consist of common stock of various financial service providers. This investment security is in unrealized loss positions as a result of the illiquid nature of the stock. The Corporation does not invest in these securities with the intent to sell them for a profit in the near term. For investments in equity securities, in addition to the general factors mentioned above for determining whether the decline in market value is other-than-temporary, the analysis of whether an equity security is other-than-temporarily impaired includes a review of the profitability, capital adequacy and other relevant information available to determine the financial position and near term prospects of each issuer. The results of analyzing the aforementioned metrics and financial fundamentals suggest recovery of amortized cost in the near future. Based on that evaluation, and given that the Corporation’s current intention is not to sell any impaired security and it is more likely than not it will not be required to sell this security before the recovery of its amortized cost basis, the Corporation does not consider the equity security with an unrealized loss as of December 31, 2016 to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

There were 128 debt securities in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2016, of which 13 were in an unrealized loss position for more than 12 months. Of these 128 securities, 66 were state and political subdivisions securities, 24 were collateralized mortgage obligations (issued by U.S. government sponsored entities), 17 were mortgage-backed securities, 8 were corporate securities, 8 were U.S. government sponsored entities and agencies securities and 5 were U.S. Treasury securities. The unrealized losses associated with these securities were not due to the deterioration in the credit quality of the issuer that is likely to result in the non-collection of contractual principal and interest, but rather have been caused by a rise in interest rates from the time the securities were purchased. Based on that evaluation and other general considerations, and given that the Corporation’s current intention is not to sell any impaired securities and it is more likely than not it will not be required to sell these securities before the recovery of its amortized cost basis, the Corporation does not consider the debt securities with unrealized losses as of December 31, 2016 to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

5.	Loans Receivable and Related Allowance for Loan Losses (continued)

During 2016, the Corporation purchased a pool of residential mortgage loans totaling $6.9 million. There were two pools of residential mortgage loans purchased during 2015 totaling $19.2 million.

Included in total loans above are net deferred costs of $1.3 million and $835,000 at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

An allowance for loan losses (ALL) is maintained to absorb probable incurred losses from the loan portfolio. The ALL is based on management’s continuing evaluation of the risk characteristics and credit quality of the loan portfolio, assessment of current economic conditions, diversification and size of the portfolio, adequacy of collateral, past and anticipated loss experience and the amount of nonperforming loans.

Management reviews the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis using a defined, consistently applied process in order to make appropriate and timely adjustments to the ALL. When information confirms all or part of specific loans to be uncollectible, these amounts are promptly charged off against the ALL.

Following is an analysis of the changes in the ALL for the years ended December 31:



(Dollar amounts in thousands)	2016			2015
Balance at the beginning of the year	$	5,205		$	5,224

The allowance for loan losses is based on estimates, and actual losses will vary from current estimates. Management believes that the granularity of the homogeneous pools and the related historical loss ratios and other qualitative factors, as well as the consistency in the application of assumptions, result in an ALL that is representative of the risk found in the components of the portfolio at any given date.

At December 31, 2016, there was no allowance for loan losses allocated to loans acquired in the acquisition of United American Savings Bank in April 2016 (see Note 22).

Unpaid principal balance includes any loans that have been partially charged off but not forgiven. Accrued interest is not included in the recorded investment in loans presented above or in the tables that follow based on the amounts not being material.

Troubled debt restructurings (TDR). The Corporation has certain loans that have been modified in order to maximize collection of loan balances. If, for economic or legal reasons related to the customer’s financial difficulties, management grants a concession compared to the original terms and conditions of the loan that it would not have otherwise considered, the modified loan is classified as a TDR. Concessions related to TDRs generally do not include forgiveness of principal balances. The Corporation has no legal obligation to extend additional credit to borrowers with loans classified as TDRs.

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Corporation had $239,000 and $835,000, respectively, of loans classified as TDRs, which are included in impaired loans above. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Corporation had $19,000 and $63,000, respectively, of the allowance for loan losses allocated to these specific loans.

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Corporation modified one home equity loan with a recorded investment of $10,000 due to a bankruptcy order. At December 31, 2016, the Corporation did not have any allowance for loan losses allocated to this specific loan. The modification did not have a material impact on the Corporation's income statement during the period.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Corporation did not modify any loans as TDRs.

5.	Loans Receivable and Related Allowance for Loan Losses (continued)

A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 30 days contractually past due under the modified terms. During year ended December 31, 2016, there was a default on one $10,000 residential mortgage loan within 12 months following modification classified as a TDR. The default did not have a material impact on the Corporation's income statement during the period. During the year ended December 31, 2015, there was a default on one $91,000 residential mortgage loan within 12 months following modification. The default did not have a material impact on the Corporation's income statement during the period.

Credit Quality Indicators. Management categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends, among other factors.

Commercial real estate and commercial business loans not identified as impaired are evaluated as risk rated pools of loans utilizing a risk rating practice that is supported by a quarterly special asset review. In this review process, strengths and weaknesses are identified, evaluated and documented for each criticized and classified loan and borrower, strategic action plans are developed, risk ratings are confirmed and the loan’s performance status reviewed.

Management has determined certain portions of the loan portfolio to be homogeneous in nature and assigns like reserve factors for the following loan pool types: residential real estate, home equity loans and lines of credit, and consumer installment and personal lines of credit. These homogeneous loans are not rated unless identified as impaired.

Management uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Pass: Loans classified as pass typically exhibit good payment performance and have underlying borrowers with acceptable financial trends where repayment capacity is evident. These borrowers typically would have sufficient cash flow that would allow them to weather an economic downturn and the value of any underlying collateral could withstand a moderate degree of depreciation due to economic conditions.

Special Mention: Loans classified as special mention are characterized by potential weaknesses that could jeopardize repayment as contractually agreed. These loans may exhibit adverse trends such as increasing leverage, shrinking profit margins and/or deteriorating cash flows. These borrowers would inherently be more vulnerable to the application of economic pressures.

Substandard: Loans classified as substandard exhibit weaknesses that are well-defined to the point that repayment is jeopardized. Typically, the Corporation is no longer adequately protected by both the apparent net worth and repayment capacity of the borrower.

Doubtful: Loans classified as doubtful have advanced to the point that collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently ascertainable facts, conditions and value, is highly questionable or improbable.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


8.	Goodwill and Intangible Assets (continued)

Goodwill resulted from four acquisitions. During 2016, the Corporation recorded $6.6 million of goodwill related to the acquisition of United American Savings Bank (see Note 22). Goodwill represents the excess of the total purchase price paid for the acquisitions over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired, net of the fair value of the liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized but is evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Impairment exists when a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value. The Corporation has selected November 30 as the date to perform the annual impairment test. No goodwill impairment charges were recorded in 2016 or 2015. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life on the Corporation’s balance sheet.

The core deposit intangible asset, resulting from two acquisitions, is amortized using the double declining balance method over a weighted average estimated life of the related deposits and is not estimated to have a significant residual value. The Corporation recorded intangible amortization expense totaling $226,000 and $195,000 in 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The estimated amortization expense of the core deposit intangible for the years ending December 31, are as follows:



	Amortization
(Dollar amounts in thousands)	Expense
2017	$	235
2018	196

9.	Related Party Balances and Transactions

In the ordinary course of business, the Bank maintains loan and deposit relationships with employees, principal officers and directors and their affiliates. The Bank has granted loans to principal officers and directors and their affiliates amounting to $5.3 million and $2.2 million at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. During 2016, total principal additions and total principal reductions associated with these loans were $4.0 million and $205,000, respectively. Deposits from principal officers and directors and their affiliates held by the Bank at December 31, 2016 and 2015 totaled $8.3 million and $4.0 million, respectively.

In addition, directors and their affiliates may provide certain professional and other services to the Corporation and the Bank in the ordinary course of business. During 2016 and 2015, the Corporation did not pay directors or their affiliates for any such services.

11.	Borrowed Funds

The following table summarizes the Corporation’s borrowed funds as of and for the year ended December 31:



(Dollar amounts in thousands)	2016					2015
			Average		Average			Average		Average
	Balance		Balance		Rate	Balance		Balance		Rate
Short-term borrowed funds	$	9,500	$	2,341	3.34%	$	14,250	$	6,284	1.38%
Long-term borrowed funds	34,500		35,141		3.06%	35,000		15,205		3.97%
	$	44,000	$	37,482		$	49,250	$	21,489

Short-term borrowed funds at December 31, 2016 consisted of $7.0 million in FHLB overnight advances with a rate of 0.74% and $2.5 million outstanding on a $5.0 million unsecured line of credit with a correspondent bank with a rate of 4.25%, compared to $14.3 million in FHLB overnight advances with a rate of 0.43% at December 31, 2015.

Long-term borrowed funds at December 31, 2016 consisted of six $5.0 million FHLB term advances totaling $30.0 million, compared to seven $5.0 million FHLB advances totaling $35.0 million at December 31, 2015. All borrowings from the FHLB are secured by a blanket lien of qualified collateral. Qualified collateral at December 31, 2016 totaled $253.0 million. In addition, during the second quarter of 2016, the Corporation borrowed a $5.0 million, five year unsecured term advance with a correspondent bank. The term advance has a fixed rate of 4.75% and principal payments of $250,000 are due on the first day of each quarter until maturity. At December 31, 2016, the outstanding balance on this term advance was $4.5 million.

During the fourth quarter of 2015, the Corporation borrowed four $5.0 million FHLB term advances consisting of two advances with three year terms and fixed rates of 1.69% and 1.62%, respectively, one advance with a four year term and fixed rate of 1.94% and one advance with a five year term and fixed rate of 2.06%. During the second quarter of 2016, the Corporation prepaid the $5.0 million advance with a three year term and fixed rate of 1.62% . The Corporation recognized a $71,000 prepayment penalty associated with this early repayment.

11.	Borrowed Funds (continued)

The three remaining $5.0 million FHLB term advances each have a fixed rate of 0.93% and mature in November 2017. These three advances originally had rates of 4.98%, 4.83% and 4.68%, but were exchanged and modified in 2012 for advances with a rate of 0.93%. At the time of the exchange, prepayment penalties associated with the three advances totaled $2.3 million and were cash-settled with the FHLB at the time of modification. The Corporation is amortizing this prepayment penalty over the life of the new advances. At December 31, 2016, unamortized prepayment penalties totaled $414,000.

Before modification, the three advances totaling $15.0 million had a weighted average rate of 4.83%. After modification and including prepayment penalty amortization, the three advances have a weighted average rate of 3.98%.

Scheduled maturities of borrowed funds for the next five years are as follows:



(Dollar amounts in thousands)	Amount
2017	$	25,000
2018	6,000
2019	6,000
2020	6,000
2021	1,000
Thereafter	—
	$	44,000

The Bank maintains a credit arrangement with the FHLB as a source of additional liquidity. The total maximum borrowing capacity with the FHLB, excluding loans outstanding of $37.0 million and irrevocable standby letters of credit issued to secure certain deposit accounts of $93.5 million at December 31, 2016 was $122.5 million. In addition, the Corporation has $2.5 million of funds available on a line of credit through a correspondent bank.


12.	Regulatory Matters

Restrictions on Dividends, Loans and Advances

The Bank is subject to a regulatory dividend restriction that generally limits the amount of dividends that can be paid by the Bank to the Corporation. Prior regulatory approval is required if the total of all dividends declared in any calendar year exceeds net profits (as defined in the regulations) for the year combined with net retained earnings (as defined) for the two preceding calendar years. In addition, dividends paid by the Bank to the Corporation would be prohibited if the effect thereof would cause the Bank’s capital to be reduced below applicable minimum capital requirements. As of December 31, 2016, $5.4 million of undistributed earnings of the Bank was available for distribution of dividends without prior regulatory approval.

Loans or advances from the Bank to the Corporation are limited to 10% of the Bank’s capital stock and surplus on a secured basis. Funds available for loans or advances by the Bank to the Corporation amounted to approximately $4.2 million. The Corporation has a $2.2 million commercial line of credit available at the Bank for the primary purpose of purchasing qualified equity investments. At December 31, 2016, the Corporation had an outstanding balance on this line of $1.0 million.

Minimum Regulatory Capital Requirements

Banks and bank holding companies are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action.

F-27



Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


12.	Regulatory Matters (continued)

In 2015, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System amended its Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement by increasing the policy’s consolidated assets threshold from $500 million to $1 billion. The primary benefit of being deemed a "small bank holding company" is the exemption from the requirement to maintain consolidated regulatory capital ratios; instead, regulatory capital ratios only apply at the subsidiary bank level.

The final rules implementing Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s capital guidelines for U.S. banks (BASEL III rules) became effective for the Bank on January 1, 2015 with full compliance with all of the requirements being phased in over a multi-year schedule, and fully phased in by January 1, 2019. Under the BASEL III rules, the Bank must hold a capital conservation buffer above the adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios. The capital conservation buffer is being phased in from 0.0% for 2015 to 2.50% by 2019. The capital conservation buffer for 2016 is 0.625%. The net unrealized gain or loss on available for sale securities is not included in computing regulatory capital. Management believes as of December 31, 2016, the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and capital restoration plans are required. At year-end 2016 and 2015, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution's category.

The following table sets forth certain information concerning the Bank’s regulatory capital as of the dates presented. The capital adequacy ratios disclosed below are exclusive of the capital conservation buffer.

13.	Commitments and Legal Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation has various outstanding commitments and contingent liabilities that are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. In addition, the Corporation is involved in certain claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. The outcome of these claims and actions are not presently determinable; however, in the opinion of the Corporation’s management, after consulting legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Intangible assets	324		317
Other	60		30
Gross deferred tax liabilities	3,346		3,241
Net deferred tax asset	$	2,030	$	1,551

The Bank has approximately $313,000 of federal net operating loss carryforward that expires in 2036. The net operating loss was acquired from UASB and is subject to limitations under the Internal Revenue Code Section 382. The entire loss carryforward is expected to be used before expiration. In addition, the company has approximately $21,000 of alternative minimum tax (AMT)credit carryforward acquired from UASB. The AMT credit is not subject to expiration.

In accordance with relevant accounting guidance, the Corporation determined that it was not required to establish a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets since it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized through carry-back to taxable income in prior years, future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, tax strategies and, to a lesser extent, future taxable income. The Corporation’s net deferred tax asset or liability is recorded in the consolidated financial statements as a component of other assets or other liabilities.

At December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Corporation had no unrecognized tax benefits. The Corporation does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase within the next twelve months. The Corporation recognizes interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits in income taxes expense in its Consolidated Statements of Income.

The Corporation and the Bank are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as a capital-based franchise tax in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The Corporation and the Bank are no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities for years before 2013.

15.	Employee Benefit Plans

Defined Benefit Plan

The Corporation provides pension benefits for eligible employees through a defined benefit pension plan. Substantially all employees participate in the retirement plan on a non-contributing basis, and are fully vested after three years of service. Effective January 1, 2009, the plan was closed to new participants. The Corporation provided the requisite notice to plan participants on March 12, 2013 of the determination to freeze the plan (curtailment). While the freeze was not effective until April 30, 2013, management determined that participants would not satisfy, within the provisions of the plan, 2013 eligibility requirements based on minimum hours worked for 2013. Therefore, employees ceased to earn benefits as of January 1, 2013. This amendment to the plan will not affect benefits earned by the participant prior to the date of the freeze. The Corporation measures the funded status of the plan as of December 31.

Information pertaining to changes in obligations and funded status of the defined benefit pension plan for the years ended December 31 is as follows:



(Dollar amounts in thousands)	2016			2015

Investment Strategy

The intent of the pension plan is to provide a range of investment options for building a diversified asset allocation strategy that will provide the highest likelihood of meeting the aggregate actuarial projections. In selecting the options and asset allocation strategy, the Corporation has determined that the benefits of reduced portfolio risk are best achieved through diversification. The following asset classes or investment categories are utilized to meet the Pension plan’s objectives: Small company stock, International stock, Mid-cap stock, Large company stock, Diversified bond, Money Market/Stable Value and Cash. The pension plan does not prohibit any certain investments.

The Corporation does currently not expect to make a contribution to its pension plan in 2017.

Estimated future benefit payments, which reflect expected future service, as appropriate, are as follows:

15.	Employee Benefit Plans (continued)

Defined Contribution Plan

The Corporation maintains a defined contribution 401(k) Plan. Employees are eligible to participate by providing tax-deferred contributions up to 20% of qualified compensation. Employee contributions are vested at all times. The Corporation provides a matching contribution of up to 4% of the participant’s salary. For the years ended 2016 and 2015, matching contributions were $196,000 and $178,000, respectively. The Corporation may also make, at the sole discretion of its Board of Directors, a profit sharing contribution. For the years ended 2016 and 2015, the Corporation made profit sharing contributions of $105,000 and $108,000, respectively.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

The Corporation maintains a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (SERP) to provide certain additional retirement benefits to participating officers. The SERP is subject to certain vesting provisions and provides that the officers shall receive a supplemental retirement benefit if the officer’s employment is terminated after reaching the normal retirement age of 65, with benefits also payable upon death, disability, a change of control or a termination of employment prior to normal retirement age. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Corporation’s SERP liability was $1.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Corporation recognized expense of $114,000 and $162,000, respectively, related to the SERP.


16.	Stock Compensation Plans

In April 2014, the Corporation adopted the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2014 Plan), which is shareholder approved and permits the grant of restricted stock awards and options to its directors, officers and employees for up to 176,866 shares of common stock, of which 65,783 shares of restricted stock and 88,433 stock options remain available for issuance under the plan.

In addition, the Corporation’s 2007 Stock Incentive Plan and Trust (the 2007 Plan), which is shareholder approved, permits the grant of restricted stock awards and options to its directors, officers and employees for up to 177,496 shares of common stock, of which 13 shares of restricted stock and 56,283 stock options remain available for issuance under the plan.

Incentive stock options, non-incentive or compensatory stock options and share awards may be granted under the Plans. The exercise price of each option shall at least equal the market price of a share of common stock on the date of grant and have a contractual term of ten years. Options shall vest and become exercisable at the rate, to the extent and subject to such limitations as may be specified by the Corporation. Compensation cost related to share-based payment transactions must be recognized in the financial statements with measurement based upon the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

During 2016 and 2015, the Corporation granted restricted stock awards of 11,000 and 9,650 shares, respectively, with a face value of $294,000 and $227,000, respectively, based on the weighted-average grant date stock prices of $26.74 and $23.53, respectively. These restricted stock awards are 100% vested on the third anniversary of the date of grant, except in the event of death, disability or retirement. It is the Corporation’s policy to issue shares on the vesting date for restricted stock awards. There were no stock options granted during 2016 or 2015. For the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 the Corporation recognized $205,000 and $184,000, respectively, in stock compensation expense.

A summary of the status of the Corporation’s nonvested restricted stock awards as of December 31, 2016, and changes during the period then ended is presented below:

As of December 31, 2016, there was $479,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the plans. That expense is expected to be recognized over the next three years. Nonvested restricted stock is not included in common shares outstanding on the consolidated balance sheets. It is the Corporation's policy to issue shares on the vesting date for restricted stock awards. Unvested restricted stock awards do not receive dividends declared by the Corporation.


17.	Fair Values of Financial Instruments

Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Corporation’s financial instruments; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Corporation could have realized in a sale transaction or exit price on the date indicated. The estimated fair value amounts have been measured as of their respective year-ends and have not been re-evaluated or updated for purposes of these financial statements subsequent to those respective dates. As such, the estimated fair values of these financial instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than the amounts reported at year-end.

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Corporation has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Corporation’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

An asset or liability’s level is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Corporation used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate the fair value of each type of financial instrument:

Cash and cash equivalents – The carrying value of cash, due from banks and interest bearing deposits approximates fair value and are classified as Level 1.

F-35



Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


17.	Fair Values of Financial Instruments (continued)

Securities available for sale – The fair value of all investment securities are based upon the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the security. If available, investment securities are determined by quoted market prices (Level 1). Level 1 includes U.S. Treasury, federal agency securities and certain equity securities. For investment securities where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices on similar securities (Level 2). Level 2 includes U.S. Government sponsored entities and agencies, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, state and political subdivision securities and corporate debt securities. For investment securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated by using unobservable inputs (Level 3) and may include certain equity securities held by the Corporation. The Level 3 equity security valuations were supported by an analysis prepared by the Corporation which relies on inputs such as the security issuer’s publicly attainable financial information, multiples derived from prices in observed transactions involving comparable businesses and other market, financial and nonfinancial factors.

Loans – The fair value of loans receivable was estimated based on the discounted value of the future cash flows using the current rates being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality resulting in a Level 3 classification.

Impaired loans – At the time a loan is considered impaired, it is valued at the lower of cost or fair value. Impaired loans carried at fair value generally receive a specific allowance for loan losses. For collateral dependent loans, fair value is commonly based on real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 classification. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly. As of December 31, 2016, the fair value of impaired loans consists of loan balances totaling $1.2 million, net of a valuation allowance of $120,000, compared to loan balances of $643,000, net of a valuation allowance of $47,000 at December 31, 2015. Additional provision for loan losses of $95,000 and $47,000 was recorded during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, for these loans.

Other real estate owned (OREO) – Assets acquired through or instead of foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. Management’s ongoing review of appraisal information may result in additional discounts or adjustments to the valuation based upon more recent market sales activity or more current appraisal information derived from properties of similar type and/or locale. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. As of December 31, 2016, the Corporation did not have any OREO measured at fair value. As of December 31, 2015, OREO measured at fair value less costs to sell had a net carrying amount of $13,000, which consisted of the outstanding balance of $22,000 less write-downs of $9,000.

Appraisals for both collateral-dependent impaired loans and OREO are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed by the Corporation. Once received, management reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics. On an annual basis, the Corporation compares the actual selling price of OREO that has been sold to the most recent appraised value to determine what additional adjustment should be made to the appraisal value to arrive at fair value. The most recent analysis performed indicated that a discount of 10% should be applied.

Federal bank stock – It is not practical to determine the fair value of federal bank stocks due to restrictions place on its transferability.

Deposits – The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as non-interest bearing demand deposits, checking with interest, savings and money market accounts, is equal to the amount payable on demand resulting in either a Level 1 or Level 2 classification. The fair values of time deposits are based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar maturities resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Borrowings – The fair value of borrowings with the FHLB is estimated using discounted cash flows based on current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Accrued interest receivable and payable – The carrying value of accrued interest receivable and payable approximates fair value. The fair value classification is consistent with the related financial instrument.

Estimates of the fair value of off-balance sheet items were not made because of the short-term nature of these arrangements and the credit standing of the counterparties. Also, unfunded loan commitments relate principally to variable rate commercial loans.

For assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

This information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Corporation since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Corporation’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Corporation’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments

The Corporation is party to credit related financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and commercial letters of credit. Commitments to extend credit involve, to a varying degree, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation’s exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments, less any collateral value obtained. The Corporation uses the same credit policies in making commitments as for on-balance sheet instruments. The Corporation’s distribution of commitments to extend credit approximates the distribution of loans receivable outstanding.

The following table presents the notional amount of the Corporation’s off-balance sheet commitment financial instruments as of December 31:



(Dollar amounts in thousands)	2016				2015
	Fixed Rate		Variable Rate		Fixed Rate		Variable Rate
Commitments to make loans	$	11,940	$	12,785	$	1,197	$	2,298
Unused lines of credit	5,207		62,594		6,502		48,674
	$	17,147	$	75,379	$	7,699	$	50,972

Commitments to make loans are generally made for periods of 30 days or less. Commitments to extend credit include agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. These commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Commitments to extend credit also include unfunded commitments under commercial and consumer lines of credit, revolving credit lines and overdraft protection agreements. These lines of credit may be collateralized and usually do not contain a specified maturity date and may be drawn upon to the total extent to which the Corporation is committed.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Corporation usually for commercial customers to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Corporation generally holds collateral supporting those commitments if deemed necessary. Standby letters of credit, net of collateral maintained by the Bank, were $76,000 and $146,000 at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The current amount of the liability as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 for guarantees under standby letters of credit issued is not material.

22.	Mergers and Acquisitions

On April 30, 2016, the Corporation completed its acquisition of United American Savings Bank (United American) in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 30, 2015, by and among the Corporation, the Bank and United American (the Merger Agreement). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Corporation acquired United American through a reverse merger of a newly created, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank into United American. Immediately after the merger, United American merged with and into The Farmers National Bank of Emlenton, with The Farmers National Bank of Emlenton being the surviving bank. At December 31, 2015, United American had reported assets of $89.3 million. The Corporation acquired all of the outstanding shares of common stock of United American for cash consideration of $13.2 million ($42.67 per share).

The acquisition expanded the Corporation’s franchise into contiguous markets and increased the Corporation’s consolidated total assets, loans and deposits.

The assets and liabilities of United American were recorded on the Corporation’s consolidated balance sheet at their estimated fair value as of April 30, 2016, and their results of operations have been included in the consolidated income statement since such date.

Included in the purchase price was goodwill and a core deposit intangible of $6.6 million and $232,000, respectively. Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired and is the result of expected operational synergies and other factors. This goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill will not be amortized, but will be measured annually for impairment or more frequently if circumstances require. The core deposit intangible will be amortized over a weighted average estimated life of ten years using the double declining balance method. Core deposit intangible expense projected for the succeeding five years beginning 2016 is estimated to be $31,000, $40,000, $32,000, $26,000 and $20,000 per year, respectively, and $83,000 in total for years after 2020.

While the Corporation believes that the accounting for the acquisition is complete, accounting guidance allows for adjustments to goodwill for a period of up to one year after the acquisition date for information that becomes available that reflects circumstances at the acquisition date.

22.	Mergers and Acquisitions (continued)

The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed:



(Dollar amounts in thousands)

Assets acquired:
	Cash and cash equivalents		$	9,899
	Securities available for sale		60
	Loans receivable		66,145
	Federal bank stocks		978
	Accrued interest receivable		187
	Premises and equipment		1,169
	Goodwill		6,624
	Core deposit intangible		232
	Prepaid expenses and other assets		989

Liabilities assumed:
	Deposits		72,700
	Accrued interest payable		29
	Accrued expenses and other liabilities		346
		Total liabilities assumed	73,075

Consideration paid			$	13,208

The fair value of loans was determined using discounted cash flows. The book balance of the loans at the time of the acquisition was $66.1 million before considering United American’s allowance for loan losses, which was not carried over. The fair value disclosed above reflects a credit-related adjustment of ($927,000) and an adjustment for other factors of $982,000. Loans evidencing credit deterioration since origination (purchased credit impaired loans) included in loans receivable were immaterial.

Costs related to the acquisition for the year ended December 31, 2016, totaled $401,000 including legal fees, system conversion costs and other costs of $194,000, $132,000 and $75,000, respectively.
