FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

We may, from time to time, make written or oral “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements contained in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), our reports to shareholders and in other communications by us. This Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” which may be identified by the use of such words as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “should,” “planned,” “estimated” and “potential.”  Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, estimates with respect to our financial condition, results of operation and business that are subject to various factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from these estimates.  These factors include, but are not limited to:

§

changes in the interest rate environment that reduce margins;

§

changes in the regulatory environment;

§

the highly competitive industry and market area in which we operate;

§

general economic conditions, either nationally or regionally, resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality;

§

changes in business conditions and inflation;

§

changes in credit market conditions;

§

changes in the securities markets which affect investment management revenues;

§

increases in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) deposit insurance premiums and assessments could adversely affect our financial condition;

§

changes in technology used in the banking business;

§

the soundness of other financial services institutions which may adversely affect our credit risk;

§

our controls and procedures may fail or be circumvented;

§

new lines of business or new products and services which may subject us to additional risks;

§

changes in key management personnel which may adversely impact our operations;

§

the effect on our operations of recent legislative and regulatory initiatives that were or may be enacted in response to the ongoing financial crisis;

§

severe weather, natural disasters, acts of war or terrorism and other external events which could significantly impact our business; and

§

other factors detailed from time to time in our filings with the SEC.

 

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in these forward-looking statements.  You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof.  We do not undertake any obligation to republish revised forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

NOTE 1    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sussex Bancorp (“we,” “us” or “our”) and our wholly owned subsidiary Sussex Bank (the “Bank”).  The Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries are SCB Investment Company, Inc., SCBNY Company, Inc., ClassicLake Enterprises, LLC, Wheatsworth Properties Corp., PPD Holding Company, LLC, and Tri-State Insurance Agency, Inc. (“Tri-State”), a full service insurance agency located in Sussex County, New Jersey with a satellite office located in Bergen County, New Jersey.  Tri-State’s operations are considered a separate segment for financial disclosure purposes.  All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.  The Bank operates nine banking offices, eight located in Sussex County, New Jersey and one in Orange County, New York.

 

Sussex Bancorp is subject to the supervision and regulation of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “FRB”).  The Bank’s deposits are insured by the Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to applicable limits.  The operations of Sussex Bancorp and the Bank are subject to the supervision and regulation of the FRB, FDIC and the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance (the “Department”) and the operations of Tri-State are subject to supervision and regulation by the Department.

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for full year financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal, recurring nature.  Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014.  These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto that are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.  

 

We have evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the balance sheet date of June 30, 2014, for items that should potentially be recognized or disclosed in these unaudited consolidated financial statements.  The evaluation was conducted through the date these unaudited consolidated financial statements were issued.

 

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net income.

 

New Accounting Standards

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists, which provides guidance on financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss (NOL) carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The FASB’s objective in issuing this ASU is to eliminate diversity in practice resulting from a lack of guidance on this topic in current U.S. GAAP.  This ASU applies to all entities with unrecognized tax benefits that also have tax loss or tax credit carryforwards in the same tax jurisdiction as of the reporting date.  For public entities, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013 and interim periods within those years.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-04, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors,  which clarifies that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additionally, the amendments require interim and annual disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction.  For public entities, the guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014.  We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The ASU’s core principle is built on the contract between a vendor and a customer for the provision of goods and services. It attempts to depict the exchange of rights and obligations between the parties in the pattern of revenue recognition based on the consideration to which the vendor is entitled. To accomplish this objective, the standard requires five basic steps: i) identify the

5

 


 

contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. For public entities, the guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2016. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-11, Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures, to change the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and certain linked repurchase financings.  This will result in accounting for both types of arrangements as secured borrowings on the balance sheet, rather than sales.  Additionally, the ASU introduces new disclosures to (i) increase transparency about the types of collateral pledged in secured borrowing transactions and (ii) enable users to better understand transactions in which the transferor retains substantially all of the exposure to the economic return on the transferred financial asset throughout the term of the transaction. For public entities, the disclosure for repurchase agreements, securities lending transactions, and repurchase-to-maturity transactions accounted for as secured borrowings is required to be presented for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and for interim periods beginning after March 15, 2015. All other accounting and disclosure amendments in the ASU are effective for public business entities for the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2014. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force), to clarify that a performance target in a share-based compensation award that could be achieved after an employee completes the requisite service period should be treated as a performance condition that affects the vesting of the award.  As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. For all entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

For each security whose fair value is less than their amortized cost basis, a review is conducted to determine if an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred. As of June 30, 2014, we reviewed our available for sale securities portfolio for indications of impairment. This review includes analyzing the length of time and the extent to which the fair value

7

 


 

has been lower than the cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including any specific events which may influence the operations of the issuer and the intent and likelihood of selling the security.  The intent and likelihood of sale of debt and equity securities is evaluated based upon our investment strategy for the particular type of security and our cash flow needs, liquidity position, capital adequacy and interest rate risk position.    

 

U.S. Government Agencies 

At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the decline in fair value and the unrealized losses for our U.S. government agencies securities were primarily due to changes in spreads and market conditions and not credit quality.  At June 30, 2014, there were three securities with a fair value of $5.0 million that had an unrealized loss that amounted to $74 thousand.  As of June 30, 2014, we did not intend to sell and it was not more-likely-than-not that we would be required to sell any of these securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis.  Therefore, none of the U.S. government agency securities at June 30, 2014, were deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

 

At December 31, 2013, there were two securities with a fair value of $3.2 million that had an unrealized loss that amounted to $49 thousand.

 

State and Political Subdivisions

At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the decline in fair value and the unrealized losses for our state and political subdivisions securities were caused by changes in interest rates and spreads and were not the result of credit quality.  At June 30, 2014, there were 40 securities with a fair value of $21.4 million that had an unrealized loss that amounted to $745 thousand.  These securities typically have maturity dates greater than 10 years and the fair values are more sensitive to changes in market interest rates.  As of June 30, 2014,  we did not intend to sell and it was not more-likely-than-not that we would be required to sell any of these securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis.  Therefore, none of our state and political subdivision securities at June 30, 2014, were deemed to be other-than-temporarily-impaired.

 

At December 31, 2013, there were 52 securities with a fair value of $25.7 million that had an unrealized loss that amounted to $2.9 million.    

 

Mortgage-Backed Securities

At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the decline in fair value and the unrealized losses for our mortgaged-backed securities guaranteed by U.S. government-sponsored enterprises were primarily due to changes in spreads and market conditions and not credit quality.  At June 30, 2014, there were 17 securities with a fair value of $16.9 million that had an unrealized loss that amounted to $192 thousand.  As of June 30, 2014,  we did not intend to sell and it was not more-likely-than-not that we would be required to sell any of these securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis.  Therefore, none of our mortgage-backed securities at June 30, 2014, were deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

 

At December 31, 2013, there were 32 securities with a fair value of $40.0 million that had an unrealized loss that amounted to $975 thousand. 

 

Equity Securities

Our marketable equity securities portfolio consists primarily of common stock of entities in the financial services industry.  At June 30, 2014, there was one security with a fair value of $126 thousand that had an unrealized loss of $17 thousand.  This security has been adversely impacted by the effects of the current economic environment on the financial services industry.  We evaluated the underlying bank for credit impairment based on its financial condition and performance.    Based on our evaluation and expectation that this security will recover within a reasonable period of time, we do not consider it to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2014

 

At December 31, 2013, there was one security with a fair value of $130 thousand that had an unrealized loss of $13 thousand. 

 

We continue to closely monitor the performance of the securities we own as well as the impact from any further deterioration in the economy or in the banking industry that may adversely affect these securities. We will continue to evaluate them for other-than-temporary impairment, which could result in a future non-cash charge to earnings.

At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the decline in fair value and the unrealized losses for our state and political subdivisions securities were caused by changes in interest rates and spreads and were not the result of credit quality.  At June 30, 2014, there were two securities with a fair value of $808 thousand that had an unrealized loss that amounted to $13 thousand.  These securities typically have maturity dates greater than 10 years and the fair values are more sensitive to changes in market interest rates.  As of June 30, 2014,  we did not intend to sell and it was not more-likely-than-not that we would be required to sell any of these securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis.  Therefore, none of our state and political subdivision securities at June 30, 2014, were deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

At December 31, 2013, there were five securities with a fair value of $2.9 million that had an unrealized loss that amounted to $92 thousand.

In determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, we estimate losses based on the identification of specific problem loans through our credit review process and also estimate losses inherent in other loans on an aggregate basis by loan type.  The credit review process includes the independent evaluation of the loan officer assigned risk ratings by the Chief Credit Officer and a third party loan review company.  Such risk ratings are assigned loss component factors that reflect our loss estimate for each group of loans.  It is management’s and the Board of Directors’ responsibility to oversee the lending process to ensure that all credit risks are properly identified, monitored, and controlled, and that loan pricing, terms and other safeguards against non-performance and default are commensurate with the level of risk undertaken and is rated as such based on a risk-rating system.  Factors considered in assigning risk ratings and loss component factors include: borrower specific information related to expected future cash flows and operating results, collateral values, financial condition, payment status and other information; levels of and trends in portfolio charge-offs and recoveries; levels in portfolio delinquencies; effects of changes in loan concentrations and observed trends in the economy and other qualitative measurements.

 

Our risk-rating system as defined below is consistent with the system used by regulatory agencies and consistent with industry practices. Loan classifications of Substandard, Doubtful or Loss are consistent with the regulatory definitions of classified assets. 

 

Pass: This category represents loans performing to contractual terms and conditions and the primary source of repayment is adequate to meet the obligation.  We have five categories within the Pass classification depending on strength of repayment sources, collateral values and financial condition of the borrower. 

 

Special Mention:  This category represents loans performing to contractual terms and conditions; however the primary source of repayment or the borrower is exhibiting some deterioration or weaknesses in financial condition that could potentially threaten the borrowers’ future ability to repay our loan principal and interest or fees due.

 

Substandard: This category represents loans that the primary source of repayment has significantly deteriorated or weakened which has or could threaten the borrowers’ ability to make scheduled payments.  The weaknesses require close supervision by management and there is a distinct possibility that we could sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.  Such weaknesses could jeopardize the timely and ultimate collection of our loan principal and interest or fees due.  Loss may not be expected or evident, however, loan repayment is inadequately supported by current financial information or pledged collateral.

 

Doubtful: Loans so classified have all the inherent weaknesses of a substandard loan with the added provision that collection or liquidation in full is highly questionable and not reasonably assured.  The probability of at least partial loss is high, but extraneous factors might strengthen the asset to prevent loss. The validity of the extraneous factors must be continuously monitored. Once these factors are questionable the loan should be considered for full or partial charge-off.

 

Loss: Loans so classified are considered uncollectible, and of such little value that their continuance as active assets is not warranted.  Such loans are fully charged off.

We recognize income on impaired loans under the cash basis when the collateral on the loan is sufficient to cover the outstanding obligation to us.  If these factors do not exist, we will record all payments as a reduction of principal on such loans. 

 

Impaired loans include loans modified in troubled debt restructurings where concessions have been granted to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties.  These concessions could include a reduction in the interest rate on the loan, payment extensions, postponement or forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions intended to maximize collection.  The concessions rarely result in the forgiveness of principal or accrued interest.  In addition, we attempt to obtain additional collateral or guarantor support when modifying such loans.  Non-accruing restructured loans may be returned to accrual status when there has been a sustained period of repayment performance (generally six consecutive months of payments) and both principal and interest are deemed collectible.

 

The following table presents the recorded investment in troubled debt restructured loans, based on payment performance status:

Troubled debt restructured loans are considered impaired and are included in the previous impaired loans disclosures in this footnote.  As of June 30, 2014, we have not committed to lend additional amounts to customers with outstanding loans that are classified as troubled debt restructurings.

 

There were no troubled debt restructurings that occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.  The following table summarizes troubled debt restructurings that occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013:

The troubled debt restructurings presented in the table above resulted in an allocation of the allowance for credit losses of $31 thousand and $63 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013These specific reserves are included in the allowance for credit losses for loans individually evaluated for impairment. There were no charge-offs on the troubled debt restructurings presented in the table above during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

 

There were no troubled debt restructurings that occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, therefore, no allocation for the allowance for credit losses or charge-offs were required on loans modified as troubled debt restructurings during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

 

There were no troubled debt restructurings for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the date of the restructuring for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

NOTE 5 – EARNINGS PER SHARE 

 

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share reflect additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares (non-vested restricted stock grants and stock options) had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance of potential common shares that may be issued by us. Potential common shares related to stock options are determined using the treasury stock method.

There were 7,000 and 7,500 shares of unvested restricted stock awards and options outstanding during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because to do so would have been anti-dilutive.  There were 36,043 and 33,340 shares of unvested restricted stock awards and options outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because to do so would have been anti-dilutive.

 

NOTE 6OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS) 

 

Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income.  Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income.

NOTE 8   STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION 

 

We currently have stock-based compensation plans in place for our directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors.  Under the terms of these plans we may grant restricted shares and stock options for the purchase of our common stock.  The stock-based compensation is granted under terms determined by our Compensation Committee.  Our standard stock option grants have a maximum term of 10 years, generally vest over periods ranging between one and four years, and are granted with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant.  Restricted stock is valued at the market value of the common stock on the date of grant and generally vests over periods of two to seven years.  All dividends paid on restricted stock, whether vested or unvested, are granted to the shareholder.

NOTE 9 – GUARANTEES

 

We do not issue any guarantees that would require liability recognition or disclosure, other than standby letters of credit.  Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by us to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party.  Generally, all letters of credit, when issued, have expiration dates within one year.  The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.  Generally, we hold collateral and/or personal guarantees supporting these commitments.  As of June 30, 2014, we had $1.4 million of outstanding letters of credit.  Management believes that the proceeds obtained through a liquidation of collateral and the enforcement of guarantees would be sufficient to cover the potential amount of future payments required under the corresponding guarantees.  The amount of the liability as of June 30, 2014, for guarantees under standby letters of credit issued is not material.

 

NOTE 10   FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of our 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 we could have realized in a sale transaction on the dates indicated.  The 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 fair values of these financial instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than the amounts reported at each year end.

 

In accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use a hierarchical disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observability utilized in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value.  The three broad levels defined by the hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level I - Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.

 

Level II - Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these asset and liabilities include items for which quoted prices are available but traded less frequently, and items that are fair valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.

 

Level III - Assets and liabilities that have little to no pricing observability as of reported date.  These items do not have two-way markets and are measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of our assets and liabilities.  Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between our disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful.  The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of our financial instruments at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:  

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents (Carried at Cost): The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximate those assets’ fair value.

 

Deposits (Carried at Cost): Fair value for fixed-rate time certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.  The Company generally purchases amounts below the insured limit, limiting the amount of credit risk on these time deposits.  

 

Securities: The fair value of securities, available for sale (carried at fair value) and securities held to maturity (carried at amortized cost) are determined by obtaining quoted market prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level I), or matrix pricing (Level II), which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices.  For certain securities which are not traded in active markets or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations are adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, and such adjustments are generally based on available market evidence (Level III).  In the absence of such evidence, management’s best estimate is used.  Management’s best estimate consists of both internal and external support on certain Level III measurements.  Internal cash flow models using a present value formula that includes assumptions market participants would use along with indicative exit pricing obtained from broker/dealers (where available) were used to support fair values of certain Level III investments.

 

Federal Home Loan Bank Stock (Carried at Cost):  The carrying amount of restricted investment in bank stock approximates fair value and considers the limited marketability of such securities.

 

Loans Receivable (Carried at Cost): The fair values of loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using the market rates at the balance sheet date that reflect the credit and interest rate-risk inherent in the loans.  Projected

21

 


 

future cash flows are calculated based upon contractual maturity or call dates, projected repayments and prepayments of principal.  Generally, for variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.

 

Impaired Loans (Carried at Lower of Cost or Fair Value): Fair value of impaired loans is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds.  These assets are included in Level III fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.  At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the fair value consists of the loan balances of $3.6 million and $5.5 million, net of valuation allowance of $597 thousand and $485 thousand, respectively. 

 

Deposit Liabilities (Carried at Cost): The fair values disclosed for demand, savings and money market accounts are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts).  Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits. 

 

Borrowings (Carried at Cost): Fair values of FHLB advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on quoted prices for new FHLB advances with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity.  These prices obtained from this active market represent a market value that is deemed to represent the transfer price if the liability were assumed by a third party. 

 

Junior Subordinated Debentures (Carried at Cost): Fair values of junior subordinated debt are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on market rates currently offered on such debt with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity. 

 

Accrued Interest Receivable and Accrued Interest Payable (Carried at Cost): The carrying amounts of accrued interest receivable and payable approximate its fair value.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Instruments (Disclosed at Cost): Fair values for our off-balance sheet financial instruments (lending commitments and letters of credit) are based on fees currently charged in the market to enter into similar agreements, taking into account, the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing.

Item 2 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 

 

MANAGEMENT STRATEGY

We are a community-oriented financial institution serving northern New Jersey, northeastern Pennsylvania, New York City, New York and Orange County, New York.  While offering traditional community bank loan and deposit products and services, we obtain non-interest income through our insurance brokerage operations and the sale of non-deposit products. 

 

We continue to focus on strengthening our core operating performance by improving our net interest income and margin by closely monitoring our yield on earning assets and adjusting the rates offered on deposit products.  The economic downturn continues to impact our level of nonperforming assets.  We have been focused on building for the future and strengthening our core operating results within a risk management framework. 

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and practices within the banking industry.  Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.  These estimates, assumptions, and judgments 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, assumptions, and judgments.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Critical accounting estimates are necessary in the application of certain accounting policies and procedures, and are particularly susceptible to significant change. Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2014For additional information on our critical accounting policies, please refer to Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements included in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

COMPARISION OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2014 AND 2013

 

Overview - For the quarter ended June 30, 2014, we reported net income of $607 thousand, or $0.13 per basic and diluted share, as compared to net income of $134 thousand, or $0.04 per basic and diluted share, for the same period last year.  The increase in net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 was largely due to a decrease in credit quality costs (provision for loan losses, loan collection costs and expenses and write-downs related to foreclosed real estate) of $683 thousand or 48.3%, and increases in net interest income of $367 thousand and gain on securities transactions of $65 thousand.

Comparative Average Balances and Average Interest Rates - The following table presents, on a fully tax equivalent basis, a summary of our interest-earning assets and their average yields, and interest-bearing liabilities and their average costs for the three month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

Net Interest Income – Net interest income is the difference between interest and fees on loans and other interest-earning assets and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities.  Net interest income is directly affected by changes in volume and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that support those assets, as well as changing interest rates when differences exist in repricing dates of assets and liabilities.

Net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis increased $369 thousand, or 8.8%, to $4.6 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to $4.2 million for same period in 2013.  The increase in net interest income was largely due to a $34.4 million, or 7.0%, increase in average interest earning assets, principally loans receivable, which increased $56.5 million, or 15.5%, and was partially offset by a decrease in the average balance on the securities portfolio of $27.3 million, or 22.1%.  The aforementioned increase also benefited from a 6 basis point increase in the net interest margin to 3.50% for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period last year. The increase in the net interest margin was mostly due to an increase in the average rate received on interest earning assets, which increased 5 basis points to 4.13% for the second quarter of 2014 from 4.08% for the same period in 2013.

 

Interest Income – Our total interest income, on a fully tax equivalent basis, increased $416 thousand, or 8.3%, to $5.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same period last year.  The increase was due to higher earning asset yields, which increased 5 basis points to 4.13% for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the same period in 2013. 

 

Our total interest income earned on loans receivable increased $315 thousand, or 7.0%, to $4.8 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013.  The increase was driven by an increase in average balance of loans receivable of $56.5 million, or 15.5%, for the three months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to same period last year.  The increase in interest income earned on loans receivable was partly offset by a 36 basis point decline in average yields to 4.58% for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the same period in 2013. 

 

Our total interest income earned on securities, on a fully tax equivalent basis, increased $99 thousand, to $598 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, from $499 thousand for the same period in 2013.  This increase was largely due to an increase in the average rate earned on securities, which increased 86 basis points for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the same period last year. 

 

Other interest-earning assets include federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits in other banks. Our interest earned on total other interest-earning assets increased $2 thousand for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 due to an increase in average balances.  The average balances in other interest-earning assets increased $5.2 million to $7.4 million in the first quarter of 2014 from $2.1 million during the second quarter a year earlier. 

 

Interest Expense – Our interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2014 increased $47 thousand, or 6.0%, to $828 thousand from $781 thousand for the same period in 2013.  The improvement was principally due to higher average rates paid on total interest-bearing liabilities, which increased 1 basis points from 0.74% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 to 0.75% for the same period in 2014 combined with an increase in average balances in interest-bearing liabilities, which increased $17.9 million, or 4.2%, to $441.4 million for the second quarter of 2014 from $423.5 million for the same period in 2013.

 

Our interest expense on deposits declined $38 thousand, or 8.4%, for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the same period last year.  The decline was largely attributed to lower rates on total interest bearing deposits, which decreased 4 basis points to 0.44% for the second quarter 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013.  The decrease in rates on deposit products reflects management’s asset/liability strategies and a lower market rate environment between the two periods.

 

Provision for Loan Losses – Provision for loan losses decreased $300 thousand to $400 thousand for the second quarter of 2014, as compared to $700 thousand for the same period in 2013.    The decrease in the provision for loan losses for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 was largely attributed to the resolution of problem loans.  The provision for loan losses reflects management’s judgment concerning the risks inherent in our existing loan portfolio and the size of the allowance necessary to absorb the risks, as well as the activity in the allowance during the periods.  Management reviews the adequacy of its allowance on an ongoing basis and will provide additional provisions, as management may deem necessary. 

 

Non-Interest Income – We reported an increase in non-interest income of $95 thousand, or 7.0%, to $1.5 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period last year.  The increase in non-interest income was largely due to an increase in gains on securities transactions of $65 thousand and increases in insurance commissions and fees of $49 thousand, or 7.6%, which were partially offset by a decrease in investment brokerage fees of $17 thousand, or 31.5%.

Non-Interest Expense – Our non-interest expenses increased $48 thousand, or 1.0%, to $4.7 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period last year.  The increase for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 was largely due to increases in salaries and employee benefits expense of $120 thousand, director fees of $118 thousand and data processing fees of $94 thousand, which were partially offset by decreases in expenses and write-downs related to foreclosed real estate of $436 thousand.  The increase in director fees was principally related to a deferred compensation plan that is tied to the performance of our common stock.  The increase in data processing fees was principally due to de-conversion charges related to a planned technology upgrade scheduled for the third quarter of 2014.

Income Taxes – Our income tax expense, which includes both federal and state tax expenses, was $159 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to income tax benefit of $82 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2013.

 

COMPARISION OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2014 AND 2013

 

Overview - For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we reported net income of $1.3 million, or $0.28 per basic and diluted share, as compared to net income of $232 thousand, or $0.07 per basic and diluted share, for the same period last year.  The increase in net income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was largely due to a decrease in credit quality costs (provision for loan losses, loan collection costs and expenses and write-downs related to foreclosed real estate) of $1.7 million or 55.6%, and an increase in net interest income of $830 thousand, which were partially offset by a decrease in gain on securities transactions of $305 thousand 

Comparative Average Balances and Average Interest Rates - The following table presents, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, a summary of our interest-earning assets and their average yields, and interest-bearing liabilities and their average costs for the six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

Net Interest Income – Net interest income is the difference between interest and fees on loans and other interest-earning assets and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities.  Net interest income is directly affected by changes in volume and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that support those assets, as well as changing interest rates when differences exist in repricing dates of assets and liabilities.

 

Net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis increased $830 thousand, or 10.1%, to $9.0 million for the first six months of 2014 as compared to $8.2 million for same period in 2013.  The increase in net interest income was largely due to a $27.4 million, or 5.6%, increase in average interest earning assets, principally loans receivable, which increased $54.9 million, or 15.4%, and was partially offset by a decrease in the average balance on the securities portfolio of $28.8 million, or 22.6%.  The aforementioned increase also benefited from a 14 basis point increase in the net interest margin to 3.51% for the first six months of 2014 as compared to the same period last year. The increase in the net interest margin was mostly due to an increase in the average rate received on interest earning assets, which increased 11 basis points to 4.15% for the first six months of 2014 from 4.04% for the same period in 2013.

 

Interest Income – Our total interest income, on a fully tax equivalent basis, increased $814 thousand, or 8.3%, to $10.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the same period last year.  The increase was due to higher earning asset yields, which increased 11 basis points to 4.15% for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the same period in 2013. 

 

Our total interest income earned on loans receivable increased $662 thousand, or 7.6%, to $9.4 million for the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013.  The increase was driven by an increase in average balance of loans receivable of $54.9 million, or 15.4%, for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to same period last year.  The increase in interest income earned on loans receivable was partly offset by a 33 basis point decline in average yields to 4.62% for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the same period in 2013. 

 

Our total interest income earned on securities, on a fully tax equivalent basis, increased $152 thousand, to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, from $1.0 million for the same period in 2013.  This increase was largely due to an increase in the average rate earned on securities, which increased 79 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the same period last year. 

 

Other interest-earning assets include federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits in other banks. Our interest earned on total other interest-earning assets remained flat for the first six months of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013.  The average balances in other interest-earning assets increased $1.4 million to $6.4 million in the first six months of 2014 from $5.0 million during the first six months a year earlier. 

 

Interest Expense – Our interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased $16 thousand, or 1.0%, to $1.6 million from $1.6 million for the same period in 2013.  The improvement was principally due to lower average rates paid on total interest-bearing liabilities, which declined 2 basis points from 0.77% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to 0.75% for the same period in 2014 partially offset by an increase in average balances in interest-bearing liabilities, which increased $11.1 million, or 2.6%, to $436.9 million for the first six months of 2014 from $425.8 million for the same period in 2013.

 

Our interest expense on deposits declined $186 thousand, or 18.8%, for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the same period last year.  The decline was largely attributed to lower rates on total interest bearing deposits, which decreased 9 basis points to 0.43% for the first six months of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013.  The decrease in rates on deposit products reflects management’s asset/liability strategies and a lower market rate environment between the two periods. 

 

Provision for Loan Losses – Provision for loan losses decreased $989 thousand to $853 thousand for the first six months of 2014 as compared to $1.8 million for the same period in 2013.    The decrease in the provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was largely attributed to the resolution of problem loans.  The provision for loan losses reflects management’s judgment concerning the risks inherent in our existing loan portfolio and the size of the allowance necessary to absorb the risks, as well as the activity in the allowance during the periods.  Management reviews the adequacy of its allowance on an ongoing basis and will provide additional provisions, as management may deem necessary. 

 

Non-Interest Income – We reported a decrease in non-interest income of $199 thousand, or 6.1%, to $3.0 million for the first six months of 2014 as compared to the same period last year.  The decrease in non-interest income was largely due to a decrease in gains on securities transactions of $305 thousand, which was partially offset by increases in insurance commissions and fees of $180 thousand, or 12.1%.

Non-Interest Expense – Our non-interest expenses decreased $62 thousand, or 0.7%, to $9.2 million for the first six months of 2014 as compared to the same period last year.  The decrease for the first six months of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 was largely due to a decrease in expenses and write-downs related to foreclosed real estate of $747 thousand, which was partly offset by increases in salaries and employee benefits expense of $303 thousand, data

processing fees of $145 thousand and occupancy of $109 thousand  The increase in data processing fees was principally due to de-conversion charges related to a planned technology upgrade scheduled for the third quarter of 2014.

 

Income Taxes – Our income tax expense, which includes both federal and state tax expenses, was $457 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to income tax benefit of $172 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

 

COMPARISION OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT JUNE 30, 2014 TO DECEMBER 31, 2013

 

Total Assets – At June 30, 2014, the Company’s total assets were $557.2 million, an increase of $23.3 million, or 4.4%, as compared to total assets of $533.9 million at December 31, 2013.  The increase in total assets was largely driven by net growth in total loans of $35.9 million, or 9.2%, which was partially offset by declines in the securities portfolio of $9.4 million, or 9.7%, and in cash and cash equivalents of $2.1 million, or 16.1%.    

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents – Our cash and cash equivalents decreased by $2.1 million to $11.1 million at June 30, 2014, or 2.0% of total assets, from $13.2 million, or 2.5%, of total assets, at December 31, 2013.  The decrease was largely due to the investment of excess liquidity into loans.

 

Securities Portfolio – At June 30, 2014, the securities portfolio, which includes available for sale and held to maturity securities, was $87.3 million compared to $96.8 million at December 31, 2013. Available for sale securities were $81.3 million at June 30, 2014, compared to $90.7 million at December 31, 2013. The available for sale securities are held primarily for liquidity, interest rate risk management and profitability. Accordingly, our investment policy is to invest in securities with low credit risk, such as U.S. government agency obligations, state and political obligations and mortgage-backed securities. Held to maturity securities were $6.1 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

 

Net unrealized gains (losses) in the securities portfolio were $327 thousand and ($3.6) million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

 

We conduct a regular assessment of our investment securities to determine whether any securities are other-than-temporarily impaired (“OTTI”).  Further detail of the composition of the securities portfolio and discussion of the results of the most recent OTTI assessment are in Note 2 –  Securities to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

 

Our securities in unrealized loss positions are mostly driven by changes in spreads and market interest rates.  All of our debt and equity securities in an unrealized loss position have been evaluated for other-than-temporary impairment as of June 30, 2014 and we do not consider any security OTTI.  We evaluated the prospects of the issuers in relation to the severity and the duration of the unrealized losses.  In addition, we do not intend to sell, and it is more likely than not that we will not have to sell, any of our securities before recovery of their cost basis. 

 

Other investments totaled $3.0 million and $2.7 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, and consisted primarily of FHLB stock. We also held $100 thousand in time deposits with other financial institutions at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. 

 

Loans – The loan portfolio comprises our largest class of earning assets.    Total loans receivable, net of unearned income, increased $35.9 million, or 9.2%, to $428.3 million at June 30, 2014, as compared to $392.4 million at December 31, 2013.  The increase in loans was primarily in the commercial real estate portfolio, which increased $32.0 million, or 12.3%, to $292.6 million at June 30, 2014, as compared to $260.7 million at December 31, 2013 and in the commercial and industrial portfolio, which increased $4.0 million, or 26.2%, to $19.2 million at June 30, 2014, as compared to $15.2 million at December 31, 2013.

Loan and Asset Quality – Our overall credit quality continued to improve through June 30, 2014, as our total problem assets, which is composed of foreclosed real estate, criticized assets and classified assets, declined $3.5 million, or 12.8%, to $23.5 million at June 30, 2014, from $27.1 million at December 31, 2013.

Non-performing assets (“NPAs”), which include non-accrual loans, loans 90 days past due and still accruing, troubled debt restructured loans currently performing in accordance with renegotiated terms and foreclosed real estate, decreased $1.9 million, or 11.5%, to $14.7 million at June 30, 2014, as compared to $16.6 million at December 31, 2013.  Non-accrual loans decreased $1.7 million, or 14.2%, to $10.2 million at June 30, 2014, as compared to $11.9 million at December 31, 2013.  The top five non-accrual loan relationships total $6.4 million, or 63.1%, of total non-accrual loans and 43.9% of total NPAs at June 30, 2014.  The remaining non-accrual loans have an average loan balance of $111 thousand.  Loans past due 30 to 89 days decreased $698 thousand, or 19.0%, to $3.0 million at June 30, 2014, as compared to $3.7 million at December 31, 2013.

 

We continue to actively market our foreclosed real estate properties, which decreased $72 thousand to $2.9 million at June 30, 2014, as compared to $2.9 million at December 31, 2013.  The decrease was primarily due to the sale of foreclosed real estate properties for $683 thousand and write downs of $110 thousand, which were partially offset by additions of $715 thousand in new foreclosed real estate properties during 2014.  At June 30, 2014, our foreclosed real estate properties had an average value of approximately $317 thousand per property.

 

The allowance for loan losses increased $433 thousand, or 8.0% to $5.9 million, or 1.37% of total loans, at June 30, 2014, compared to $5.4 million, or 1.38% of total loans, at December 31, 2013. We recorded $853 thousand in provision for loan losses, which was partly offset by $420 thousand in net charge-offs for 2014. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-accrual loans improved to 57.4% at June 30, 2014 from 45.6% at December 31, 2013.

 

Management continues to monitor our asset quality and believes that the non-performing assets are adequately collateralized and anticipated material losses have been adequately reserved for in the allowance for loan losses.  However, given the uncertainty of the current real estate market, additional provisions for losses may be deemed necessary in future periods.  The following table provides information regarding risk elements in the loan portfolio at each of the periods presented:

A loan is considered impaired, in accordance with the impairment accounting guidance, when based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due from the borrower in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan.  Total impaired loans at June 30, 2014 were $11.8 million and at December 31, 2013 were $13.5 million.  Impaired loans measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis decreased to $3.6 million on June 30, 2014 from $5.5 million at December 31, 2013. The principal balances on loans measured at fair value were $4.2 million and $6.0 million, net of valuation allowance of $597 thousand at June 30, 2014 and $485 thousand at December 31, 2013.  Impaired loans include loans modified in troubled debt restructurings where concessions have been granted to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties.  These concessions could include a reduction in the interest rate on the loan, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions intended to maximize collection.  Not all impaired loans and restructured loans are on non-accrual, and therefore not all are considered non-performing loans.  Restructured loans still accruing totaled $1.6 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

 

We also continue to monitor our portfolio for potential problem loans. Potential problem loans are defined as loans which causes management to have serious concerns as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the present loan repayment terms and which may cause the loan to be placed on non-accrual status. As of June 30, 2014, we had 8 loan relationships totaling $1.4 million that we deemed potential problem loans. Management is actively monitoring these loans.

 

Further detail of the credit quality of the loan portfolio is included in Note 4 –  Allowance for Loan Losses and Credit Quality of Financing Receivables to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

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

 

Management regularly assesses the appropriateness and adequacy of the loan loss reserve in relation to credit exposure associated with individual borrowers, overall trends in the loan portfolio and other relevant factors, and believes the reserve is reasonable and adequate for each of the periods presented.

 

At June 30, 2014, the total allowance for loan losses increased $433 thousand, or 8.0%, to $5.9 million, as compared to $5.4 million at December 31, 2013.  The components of this increase were a provision for loan losses of $853 thousand and net charge-offs totaling $420 thousand in the first six months of 2014.  The provision also reflects the continued weakness in current real estate values in our market area and reduced cash flows to support the repayment of loans.  The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.4% at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Bank-Owned Life Insurance (BOLI) –  Our BOLI carrying value amounted to $12.1 million at June 30, 2014 and $11.9 million at December 31, 2013.

 

Goodwill and Other Intangibles – Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair market value of net assets acquired.  At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had recorded goodwill totaling $2.8 million, primarily as a result of the acquisition of Tri-State in 2001.  In accordance with U.S. GAAP, goodwill is not amortized, but evaluated at least annually for impairment.  Any impairment of goodwill results in a charge to income.  We periodically assess whether events and changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of goodwill and intangible assets may be impaired.  The estimated fair value of the reporting segment exceeded its book value; therefore, no write-down of goodwill was required.  The goodwill related to the insurance agency is not deductible for tax purposes.

 

Deposits – Our total deposits increased $14.0 million, or 3.3%, to $444.3 million at June 30, 2014, from $430.3 million at December 31, 2013.  The increase in deposits was due to an increase in non-interest bearing deposits of $9.5 million,

31

 


 

or 16.4%, and interest bearing deposits of $4.5 million, or 1.2%, for June 30, 2014, as compared to December 31, 2013.  Our funding mix continues to improve as low cost deposits grow.

 

Borrowings – Borrowings consist of short term and long term advances from the FHLB.  The advances are secured under terms of a blanket collateral agreement by a pledge of qualifying mortgage loans.  We had $46.0 million and $41.0 million in borrowings, at a weighted average interest rate of 3.09% at June 30, 2014 and 3.22% at December 31, 2013.  The borrowings at June 30, 2014 consisted of $25.0 million of fixed rate advances, $10.0 million of advances with quarterly convertible puts that allow us to put the advance back to the FHLB quarterly after one year from issuance and $11.0 million of advances with quarterly convertible options that allow the FHLB to change the note rate to a then current market rate. 

 

Junior Subordinated Debentures – On June 28, 2007, Sussex Capital Trust II, a Delaware statutory business trust and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued $12.5 million of variable rate capital trust pass-through securities to investors.  Sussex Capital Trust II purchased $12.9 million of variable rate junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures from us.  The debentures are the sole asset of the Trust.  The terms of the junior subordinated debentures are the same as the terms of the capital securities.  We have also fully and unconditionally guaranteed the obligations of the Trust under the capital securities.  The interest rate is based on the three-month LIBOR plus 144 basis points and adjusts quarterly.  The rate at June 30, 2014, was 1.67%.  The capital securities are currently redeemable by us at par in whole or in part.  The capital securities must be redeemed upon final maturity of the subordinated debentures on September 15, 2037.  The proceeds of these trust preferred securities, which have been contributed to the Bank, are included in the Bank’s capital ratio calculations and treated as Tier I capital.

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 810, Consolidations, our wholly owned subsidiary, Sussex Capital Trust II, is not included in our consolidated financial statements.

 

Equity  Stockholders’ equity, inclusive of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of income taxes, was $49.7 million, an increase of $3.3 million when compared to December 31, 2013.  The increase was largely due to net income for the year and an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income relating to a reduction in the net unrealized losses on available for sale securities.  At June 30, 2014, the leverage, Tier I risk-based capital and total risk-based capital ratios for the Bank were 10.31%, 13.60% and 14.85%, respectively, all in excess of the ratios required to be deemed “well-capitalized.”

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

A fundamental component of our business strategy is to manage liquidity to ensure the availability of sufficient resources to meet all financial obligations and to finance prospective business opportunities. Liquidity management is critical to our stability. Our liquidity position over any given period of time is a product of our operating, financing and investing activities. The extent of such activities is often shaped by such external factors as competition for deposits and loan demand.

 

Traditionally, financing for our loans and investments is derived primarily from deposits, along with interest and principal payments on loans and investments.  At June 30, 2014, total deposits amounted to $444.3 million, an increase of $14.0 million, or 3.3%, from December 31, 2013. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, advances from FHLB and subordinated debentures totaled $58.9 million and $53.9 million, respectively, and represented 10.6% and 10.1% of total assets, respectively. 

 

Loan production continued to be our principal investing activity. Net loans receivable at June 30, 2014, amounted to $422.5 million, an increase of $35.5 million, or 9.2%, compared to December 31, 2013.

 

Our most liquid assets are cash and due from banks and federal funds sold.  At June 30, 2014, the total of such assets amounted to $11.1 million, or 2.0%, of total assets, compared to $13.2 million, or 2.5%, of total assets at December 31, 2013. Another significant liquidity source is our available for sale securities portfolio.  At June 30, 2014, available for sale securities amounted to $81.3 million compared to $90.7 million at December 31, 2013.

 

In addition to the aforementioned sources of liquidity, we have available various other sources of liquidity, including federal funds purchased from other banks and the Federal Reserve Bank discount window.  The Bank also has the capacity to borrow an additional $5.4 million through its membership in the FHLB and $10.0 million at Atlantic Central Bankers Bank at June 30, 2014.  Management believes that our sources of funds are sufficient to meet our present funding requirements.

 

The Bank’s regulators have implemented risk based guidelines that require banks to maintain Tier I capital as a percent of risk-adjusted assets of 4.0% and Tier II capital as a percentage of risk-adjusted assets of 8.0% at a minimum.  At June 30, 2014, the Bank’s Tier I and Tier II capital ratios were 13.60% and 14.85%, respectively.  In addition to the risk-

32

 


 

based guidelines, the Bank’s regulators require that banks which meet the regulators’ highest performance and operational standards maintain a minimum leverage ratio (Tier I capital as a percent of tangible assets) of 4.0%.  As of June 30, 2014, the Bank had a leverage ratio of 10.31%.  The Bank’s risk based and leverage ratios are in excess of those required to be considered “well-capitalized” under FDIC regulations.

 

The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System also imposes similar capital requirements on bank holding companies with consolidated assets of $500 million or more. Under Federal Reserve reporting requirements, a bank holding company that reaches $500 million or more in total consolidated assets as of June 30 of the preceding year must begin reporting its consolidated capital beginning in March of the following year.  The Bank began reporting its consolidated capital in March 2013.

 

We have no investment or financial relationship with any unconsolidated entities that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on liquidity or the availability of capital resources, except for the trust preferred securities of Sussex Capital Trust II.  We are not aware of any known trends or any known demands, commitments, events or uncertainties, which would result in any material increase or decrease in liquidity.  Management believes that any amounts actually drawn upon can be funded in the normal course of operations.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements – Our consolidated financial statements do not reflect off-balance sheet arrangements that are made in the normal course of business.  These off-balance sheet arrangements consist of unfunded loans and letters of credit made under the same standards as on-balance sheet instruments.  These unused commitments, at June 30, 2014, totaled $66.2 million and consisted of $18.9 million in commitments to grant commercial real estate, construction and land development loans, $22.2 million in home equity lines of credit, $23.6 million in other unused commitments and $1.4 million in letters of credit.  These instruments have fixed maturity dates, and because many of them will expire without being drawn upon, they do not generally present any significant liquidity risk to us.  Management believes that any amounts actually drawn upon can be funded in the normal course of operations.
