CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING 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 stockholders and in other communications by us. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements,” which may be identified by the use of such words as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “estimate,” “potential” and other similar expressions. 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:

 

    local, regional, national and international economic conditions and the impact they may have on us and our customers and our assessment of that impact;

 

    continued volatility and disruption in national and international financial markets;

 

    changes in the level of non-performing assets and charge-offs;

 

    changes in estimates of future reserve requirements based upon the periodic review thereof under relevant regulatory and accounting requirements;

 

    adverse conditions in the securities markets that lead to impairment in the value of securities in our investment portfolio;

 

    inflation, interest rate, securities market and monetary fluctuations;

 

    the timely development and acceptance of new products and services and perceived overall value of these products and services by users;

 

    changes in consumer spending, borrowings and savings habits;

 

    technological changes;

 

    the ability to increase market share and control expenses;

 

    changes in the competitive environment among banks, financial holding companies and other financial service providers;

 

    the effect of changes in laws and regulations (including laws and regulations concerning taxes, banking, securities and insurance) with which we must comply;

 

    the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the regulatory agencies, as well as the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and other accounting standard setters;

 

    the costs and effects of legal and regulatory developments including the resolution of legal proceedings or regulatory or other governmental inquiries and the results of regulatory examinations or reviews;

 

    difficulties related to the integration of any businesses we may acquire, including The Randolph National Bank and Charter Trust Company; and

 

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

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which such statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Throughout this report, the terms “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to the consolidated entity of New Hampshire Thrift Bancshares, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary, Lake Sunapee Bank, fsb (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s subsidiaries, McCrillis & Eldredge Insurance, Inc., Lake Sunapee Group, Inc., Lake Sunapee Financial Services Corporation and Charter Holding Corp.

NEW HAMPSHIRE THRIFT BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2014

(Unaudited)

Nature of Operations

New Hampshire Thrift Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware company organized on July 5, 1989, is the parent company of Lake Sunapee Bank, fsb (the “Bank”), a federally chartered savings bank organized in 1868. The Bank has four wholly owned subsidiaries: Lake Sunapee Financial Services Corp.; Lake Sunapee Group, Inc., which owns and maintains all buildings and investment properties; McCrillis & Eldredge Insurance, Inc. (“M&E”), a full-line independent insurance agency, which offers a complete range of commercial insurance services and consumer products, and Charter Holding Corp (“Charter Holding”), which through its subsidiaries, provides trust and wealth management services. The Company, through its direct and indirect subsidiaries, currently operates 27 locations in New Hampshire in Grafton, Hillsborough, Merrimack and Sullivan counties as well as 16 locations in Vermont in Orange, Rutland, and Windsor counties. The Bank is a member of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and its deposits are insured by the FDIC. The Company is regulated by the Federal Reserve Board, and the Bank is regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”).

Note A - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and, accordingly, do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The condensed balance sheet data at December 31, 2013 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014.

In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the evaluation of goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment, other-than-temporary impairment of securities and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

Note B - Accounting Policies

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Bank, M&E, Lake Sunapee Group, Inc., Lake Sunapee Financial Services Corp., and Charter Holding and its subsidiaries, Charter Trust Company and Charter New England Agency. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NHTB Capital Trust II and NHTB Capital Trust III, affiliates of the Company, were formed to sell capital securities to the public through a third-party trust pool. In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810-10, “Consolidation-Overall,” these affiliates have not been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note C - Impact of New Accounting Standards

In January 2014, FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-01, “Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects.” This ASU applies to all reporting entities that invest in qualified affordable housing projects through limited liability entities that are flow-through entities for tax purposes as follows:

1. For reporting entities that meet the conditions for and that elect to use the proportional amortization method to account for investments in qualified affordable housing projects, all amendments in this ASU apply.

2. For reporting entities that do not meet the conditions for or that do not elect the proportional amortization method, only the amendments in this ASU that are related to disclosures apply.

This ASU permits reporting entities to make an accounting policy election to account for their investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense (benefit). For those investments in qualified affordable housing projects not accounted for using the proportional amortization method, the investment should be accounted for as an equity method investment or a cost method investment in accordance with
Subtopic 970-323.

Table of Contents

This ASU should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. A reporting entity that uses the effective yield method to account for its investments in qualified affordable housing projects before the date of adoption may continue to apply the effective yield method for those preexisting investments. This ASU is effective for public business entities for annual periods and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-04, “Receivables-Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure.” The objective of this ASU is to reduce diversity by clarifying when an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, that is, when a creditor should be considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan such that the loan receivable should be derecognized and the real estate property recognized. This ASU 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, this ASU requires 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. This ASU is effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” This ASU changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations and modifies related disclosure requirements. The new guidance is effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those years. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” The objective of this ASU was to clarify principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard for GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The guidance in this ASU affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The core principal of the guidance is 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 or services. For public entities, the amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. The Company is currently reviewing this ASU to determine if it will have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-11, “Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures.” This ASU requires a change to the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions to secured borrowing accounting and for repurchase financing arrangements, the amendments require separate accounting for the transfer of a financial asset executed contemporaneously with a repurchase agreement with the same counterparty, which will result in secured borrowing accounting for the repurchase agreement. The amendments in this update also require additional disclosures for repurchase agreements in regards to collateral pledged, contractual terms and risks associated with the agreements. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period.” The amendments in this ASU require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. A reporting entity should apply existing guidance in Topic 718 as it relates to awards with performance conditions that affect vesting to account for such awards. This ASU is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. ASU 2014-12 may be adopted either (a) prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date or (b) retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements, and to all new or modified awards thereafter. If retrospective transition is adopted, the cumulative effect of applying this update as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements should be recognized as an adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance at that date. The Company is currently reviewing this ASU to determine if it will have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note D – Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” the Company groups its financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value.

Level 1 - Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in active exchange markets, such as The NASDAQ Stock Market. Level 1 also includes U.S. Treasury, other U.S. government and agency mortgage-backed securities that are traded by dealers or brokers in active markets. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Valuations for assets and liabilities traded in less active dealer or broker markets. Valuations are obtained from third party pricing services for identical or comparable assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Valuations for assets and liabilities that are derived from other methodologies, including option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques, are not based on market exchange, dealer, or broker traded transactions. Level 3 valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections in determining the fair value assigned to such assets and liabilities.

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below.

The Company’s cash instruments are generally classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency.

The Company’s investment in mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, preferred stock with maturities and other debt securities available-for-sale are generally classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from independent pricing services. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. treasury yield curve, trading levels, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the instrument’s terms and conditions.

The Company’s derivative financial instruments are generally classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. For these financial instruments, the Company obtains fair value measurements from independent pricing services. The fair value measurements utilize a discounted cash flow model that incorporates and considers observable data that may include publicly available third party market quotes in developing the curve utilized for discounting future cash flows.

Level 3 is for positions that 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. In the absence of such evidence, management’s best estimate is used. Subsequent to inception, management only changes Level 3 inputs and assumptions when corroborated by evidence such as transactions in similar instruments, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable entities, subsequent rounds of financing, recapitalization and other transactions across the capital structure, offerings in the equity or debt markets, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Securities Available-for-Sale. The fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale securities portfolio is estimated using Level 1 and Level 2 inputs. The Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. For Levels 1 and 2, the fair value measurements consider (i) quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and (ii) observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and a bond’s terms and conditions, among other factors, respectively.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Impaired Loans. Certain impaired loans are reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral if repayment is expected solely from collateral. Collateral values are estimated using Level 2 inputs based on appraisals of similar properties obtained from a third party valuation service. Fair values are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on appraisals of similar properties obtained from a third party valuation service discounted by management based on historical losses for similar collateral.

Other Real Estate Owned. Other real estate owned is reported at fair value less costs to sell. Values are estimated using Level 2 inputs based on appraisals of similar properties obtained from a third party valuation service. For Level 3 inputs, fair values are based on management estimates.

There were no loans measured for impairment using the fair value of the underlying collateral at June 30, 2014. Collateral dependent loans are valued using third party appraisals primarily using the sales comparison approach. The appraisals may be discounted between 25-40% to reflect realizable value based on historical losses which represents an unobservable input. Impaired loans measured for impairment with an allowance recorded, using the present value of expected future cash flows, had a recorded investment of $4.2 million with a valuation allowance of $203 thousand at June 30, 2014. Loans valued using the present value of expected future cash flows are calculated using expected future cash flows with a discount rate equal to the effective yield of the loan. At December 31, 2013, impaired loans with a recorded allowance had a recorded investment of $2.5 million with a valuation allowance of $197 thousand.

The investments in the Company’s investment portfolio that are temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2014, consist of U.S. Treasury notes, U.S. government-sponsored enterprise bonds, mortgage-backed securities issued by U.S. government-sponsored enterprises, and municipal bonds. The unrealized losses are primarily attributable to changes in market interest rates and market inefficiencies. Management has determined that the Company has the intent and the ability to hold these debt securities until maturity and therefore, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.

Troubled debt restructured loans are considered impaired and are included in the impaired loan disclosures in this footnote.

During the six month period ending June 30, 2014, certain loan modifications were executed that constituted troubled debt restructurings. Substantially all of these modifications included one or a combination of the following: (1) an extension of the maturity date at a stated rate of interest lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk; (2) temporary reduction in the interest rate; or (3) change in scheduled payment amount.

The following table presents pre-modification balance information on how loans were modified as TDRs during the six months ended June 30, 2014:

Credit Quality Information

The Company utilizes an eight grade internal loan rating system for commercial real estate, construction and commercial loans as follows:

 

    Loans rated 10-35: Loans in these categories are considered “pass” rated loans with low to average risk.

 

    Loans rated 40: Loans in this category are considered “special mention.” These loans are starting to show signs of potential weakness and are being closely monitored by management.

 

    Loans rated 50: Loans in this category are considered “substandard.” Generally, a loan is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligors and/or the collateral pledged. There is a distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the weakness is not corrected.

 

    Loans rated 60: Loans in this category are considered “doubtful.” Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, highly questionable and improbable.

 

    Loans rated 70: Loans in this category are considered uncollectible or a loss, and of such little value that their continuance as loans is not warranted.

On an annual basis, or more often if needed, the Company formally reviews the ratings on all commercial real estate, construction and commercial loans over $250 thousand. The assessments of those loans less than $250 thousand are based on the borrower’s ability to pay and not on overall risk. Additionally, the Company monitors the repayment activity for loans less than $250 thousand and if a loan becomes over 60 days past due, it is reviewed for risk and is subsequently risk rated based on available information such as ability to repay based on current cash flow conditions and workout discussions with the borrower.

Loan Servicing

The Company recognizes as separate assets from their related loans the rights to service mortgage loans for others, either through acquisition of those rights or from the sale or securitization of loans with the servicing rights retained on those loans, based on their relative fair values. To determine the fair value of the servicing rights created, the Company uses the market prices under comparable servicing sale contracts, when available, or alternatively uses a valuation model that calculates the present value of future cash flows to determine the fair value of the servicing rights. In using this valuation method, the Company incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income, which includes estimates of the cost of servicing loans, the discount rate, ancillary income, prepayment speeds and default rates.

Mortgage servicing rights are amortized in proportion to, and over the period of, estimated net servicing revenues. Refinance activities are considered in estimating the period of net servicing revenues. Impairment of mortgage servicing rights is assessed based on the fair value of those rights. Fair values are estimated using discounted cash flows based on a current market interest rate. For purposes of measuring impairment, the rights are stratified based on the interest rate risk characteristics of the underlying loans. The amount of impairment recognized is the amount by which the capitalized mortgage servicing rights for a stratum exceed their fair value.

The balance of capitalized servicing rights, net of valuation allowances, included in other assets at June 30, 2014, was $2.5 million. The fair value of capitalized servicing rights was $4.2 million as of June 30, 2014. Servicing rights of $132 thousand were capitalized during the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $1 million for the same period in 2013. Amortization of capitalized servicing rights was $390 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $486 thousand for the same period in 2013. Servicing rights of $83 thousand were capitalized during the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $448 thousand for the same period in 2013. Amortization of capitalized servicing rights was $238 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $240 thousand for the same period in 2012.

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

Highlights and Overview

Our profitability is derived primarily from the Bank. The Bank’s earnings in turn are generated from the earnings on its loan and investment portfolios less the cost of its deposit accounts and borrowings. These core revenues are supplemented by gains on sales of loans originated for sale, retail banking service fees, gains on the sale of investment securities and brokerage fees. The following is a summary of key financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2014:

 

    Total assets increased $67.4 million, or 4.73%, to $1.5 billion at June 30, 2014 from $1.4 billion at December 31, 2013.

 

    Net loans increased $67.3 million, or 5.93%, to $1.2 billion at June 30, 2014 from $1.1 billion at December 31, 2013.

 

    During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company originated $190.8 million in loans, an increase of 7.49%, compared to $177.5 million during the same period in 2013. During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, we originated $110.9 million in loans, an increase of 11.12%, compared to $99.8 million during the same period in 2013.

 

    Our loan servicing portfolio was $408.0 million at June 30, 2014, compared to $417.3 million at December 31, 2013.

 

    Total deposits increased $23.1 million, or 2.12%, to $1.1 billion at June 30, 2014 from $1.1 billion at December 31, 2013.

 

    Net interest and dividend income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $20.9 million compared to $16.0 million for the same period in 2013. Net interest and dividend income for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was $10.7 million compared to $7.8 million for the same period in 2013.

 

    Net income available to common stockholders was $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $3.7 million for the same period in 2013. Net income available to common stockholders was $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $1.7 million for the same period in 2013.

 

    As a percentage of total loans, non-performing and impaired loans decreased to 1.47% at June 30, 2014 from 1.86% at December 31, 2013.

The following discussion is intended to assist in understanding our financial condition and results of operations. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes contained elsewhere in this report.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with 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, 2014. For additional information on our critical accounting policies, please refer to the information contained in Notes A, B and C of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements included in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2014 (unaudited) and December 31, 2013

Assets. Total assets were $1.5 billion at June 30, 2014, compared to $1.4 billion at December 31, 2013, an increase of $67.4 million, or 4.73%.

Securities Portfolio. Securities available-for-sale decreased $13.7 million, or 10.93%, to $111.5 million at June 30, 2014 from $125.2 million at December 31, 2013. Net unrealized losses on securities available-for-sale were $297 thousand at June 30, 2014 compared to net unrealized losses of $2.0 million at December 31, 2013. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we sold securities with a total book value of $73.7 million for a net gain on sales of $443 thousand, and $40.0 million of short-term U.S. Treasury notes matured. During the same period, we purchased securities totaling $113.4 million including U.S. Treasury notes and mortgage-backed securities. Our net unrealized loss (after tax) on our investment portfolio was $179 thousand at June 30, 2014 compared to an unrealized loss (after tax) of $1.2 million at December 31, 2013. The investments in our investment portfolio that are temporarily impaired as of June 30, 2014 consisted of U.S. Treasury notes, U.S. government-sponsored enterprise bonds, mortgage-backed securities issued by U.S. government-sponsored enterprises, and municipal bonds. The unrealized losses are primarily attributable to changes in market interest rates and market inefficiencies. Management has determined that we have the intent and the ability to hold debt securities until maturity, and therefore, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.

Loans. Net loans held in portfolio increased $67.3 million, or 5.93%, to $1.2 billion at June 30, 2014 from $1.1 billion at December 31, 2013. The increase of loans held in portfolio was primarily due to increases in conventional real estate loans of $38.2 million, commercial real estate loans of $24.0 million, and commercial loans of $8.0 million offset in part by a decrease in construction loans of $2.1 million. As a percentage of total loans, non-performing loans decreased to 1.47% at June 30, 2014 from 1.86% at December 31, 2013. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we originated $190.8 million in loans, an increase of 7.49%, compared to $177.5 million during the same period in 2013. During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, we originated $110.9 million in loans, an increase of 11.12%, compared to $99.8 million during the same period in 2013. At June 30, 2014, our mortgage servicing loan portfolio was $408.0 million compared to $417.3 million at December 31, 2013. We expect to continue to sell long-term fixed-rate loans with terms of more than 15 years into the secondary market in order to manage interest rate risk. Market risk exposure during the production cycle is managed through the use of secondary market forward commitments. At June 30, 2014, adjustable-rate mortgages comprised approximately 68.93% of our real estate mortgage loan portfolio, which represents a higher percentage compared to the mix at December 31, 2013 of 53.64%, due in part to increases in commercial real estate loans and increased origination of adjustable-rate residential loans.

Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses. We maintain an allowance for loan losses to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Adjustments to the allowance for loan losses are charged to income through the provision for loan losses. We test the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses at least quarterly by preparing an analysis applying loss factors to outstanding loans by type. This analysis stratifies the loan portfolio by loan type and assigns a loss factor to each type based on an assessment of the risk associated with each type. In determining the loss factors, we consider historical losses and market conditions. Loss factors may be adjusted for qualitative factors that, in management’s judgment, affect the collectability of the portfolio.

The allowance for loan losses incorporates the results of measuring impairment for specifically identified non-homogeneous problem loans in accordance with ASC 310-10-35, “Receivables-Overall-Subsequent Measurement.” In accordance with ASC 310-10-35, the specific allowance reduces the carrying amount of the impaired loans to their estimated fair value. A loan is recognized as impaired when it is probable that principal and/or interest is not collectible in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan. Measurement of impairment can be based on the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the market price of the loan, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Measurement of impairment does not apply to large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans such as residential mortgage, home equity, or installment loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment.

Our commercial loan officers review the financial condition of commercial loan customers on a regular basis and perform visual inspections of facilities and inventories. We also have loan review, internal audit and compliance programs with results reported directly to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

The allowance for loan losses (not including allowance for losses from the overdraft program described below) at June 30, 2014 was $9.8 million and at December 31, 2013 was $9.7 million. The allowance for loan losses represents 0.81% of total loans held at June 30, 2014 compared to 0.85% at December 31, 2013. Total non-performing assets at June 30, 2014 were approximately $6.2 million, representing 63.59% of the allowance for loan losses. Modestly improving economic and market conditions, coupled with internal risk rating changes, resulted in us making $700 in provisions to the allowance for loan losses during the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $550 thousand for the same period in 2013. Loan charge-offs (excluding the overdraft program) were $949 thousand during the six month period ended June 30, 2014 compared to $1.1 million for the same period in 2013. Recoveries were $294 thousand during the six month period ended June 30, 2014 compared to $298 thousand for the same period in 2013. This activity resulted in net charge-offs of $655 thousand for the six month period ended June 30, 2014 compared to $847 thousand for the same period in 2013. One-to-four family residential mortgages, commercial real estate, commercial, and consumer loans accounted for 38%, 32%, 26%, and 4%, respectively, of the amounts charged-off during the six month period ended June 30, 2014.

The effects of national economic issues that continue to be felt in our local communities and the national economic outlook as well as portfolio performance and charge-offs influenced our decision to maintain our allowance for loan losses of $9.8 million. The growth in the portfolio has been offset by net loan recoveries and modestly improving economic conditions that affect the risk of loss inherent in the loan portfolio. Management anticipates making additional provisions during the remainder of 2014 to maintain the allowance at an adequate level.

In addition to the allowance for loan losses, there is an allowance for losses from the fee for service overdraft program. Our policy is to maintain an allowance equal to 100% of the aggregate balance of negative balance accounts that have remained negative for 30 days or more. Negative balance accounts are charged-off when the balance has remained negative for 60 consecutive days. At June 30, 2014, the overdraft allowance was $20 thousand, compared to $24 thousand at December 31, 2013. There were provisions of $9 thousand for overdraft losses recorded during the six month period ended June 30, 2014 compared to provisions of $26 thousand that were recorded for the same period during 2013. Ongoing provisions are anticipated as overdraft charge-offs continue and we adhere to our policy to maintain an allowance for overdraft losses equal to 100% of the aggregate negative balance of accounts remaining negative for 30 days or more.

Asset Quality. Classified loans include non-performing loans and performing loans that have been adversely classified, net of specific reserves. Total classified loans were $29.9 million at June 30, 2014 compared to $30.3 million at December 31, 2013. Other real estate owned was $297 thousand at June 30, 2014 compared to $1.3 million at December 31, 2013. Losses have occurred in the liquidation process and our loss experience suggests it is prudent for us to continue funding provisions to build the allowance for loan losses. While, for the most part, quantifiable loss amounts have not been identified with individual credits, we anticipate more charge-offs as loan issues are resolved. The impaired loans meet the criteria established under ASC 310-10-35. Twenty-two loans considered to be impaired loans at June 30, 2014, have specific allowances identified and assigned. The 22 loans are secured by real estate, business assets or a combination of both. At June 30, 2014, the allowance included $203 thousand allocated to impaired loans. The portion of the allowance allocated to impaired loans at December 31, 2013 was $197 thousand.

At June 30, 2014, we had 59 loans totaling $12.9 million considered to be troubled debt restructurings as defined in ASC 310-40, “Receivables-Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors,” included in impaired loans. At June 30, 2014, 54 of the troubled debt restructurings were performing under contractual terms. Of the loans classified as troubled debt restructured, 5 were more than 30 days past due at June 30, 2014. The balances of these past due loans were $519 thousand. At December 31, 2013, we had 57 loans totaling $12.5 million considered to be troubled debt restructurings.

Loans over 90 days past due were $2.0 million at June 30, 2014 compared to $3.9 million at December 31, 2013. Loans 30 to 89 days past due were $4.5 million at June 30, 2014 compared to $5.7 million at December 31, 2013. As a percentage of assets, the recorded investment in non-performing loans decreased from 0.65% at December 31, 2013 to 0.40% at June 30, 2014 and, as a percentage of total loans, decreased from 0.82% at December 31, 2013 to 0.49% at June 30, 2014.

Loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss, doubtful, substandard, or special mention do not reflect trends or uncertainties which we reasonably expect will materially impact future operating results, liquidity, or capital resources. For the period ended June 30, 2014, all loans about which management possesses information regarding possible borrower credit problems and doubts as to borrowers’ ability to comply with present loan repayment terms or to repay a loan through liquidation of collateral are included in the tables below or discussed herein.

At June 30, 2014, there were no other loans excluded from the tables below or not discussed above where known information about possible credit problems of the borrowers caused management to have doubts as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms and which may result in disclosure of such loans in the future.

We believe the allowance for loan losses is at a level sufficient to cover inherent losses, given the current level of risk in the loan portfolio. At the same time, we recognize that the determination of future loss potential is intrinsically uncertain. Future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary due to increases in the loan portfolio, or if economic, real estate and other conditions differ substantially from the current operating environment and result in increased levels of non-performing loans and substantial differences between estimated and actual losses. Adjustments to the allowance are charged to income through the provision for loan losses.

Goodwill. Goodwill amounted to $44.8 million, or 3.00% of total assets, as of June 30, 2014 compared to $44.6 million, or 3.13% of total assets, as of December 31, 2013.

Other intangible assets. Other intangible assets amounted to $10.2 million, or 0.68% of total assets, as of June 30, 2014 compared to $11.0 million, or 0.77% of total assets, as of December 31, 2013. The decrease was due to normal amortization of core deposit intangible and customer list assets.

Other Real Estate Owned. Other real estate owned (“OREO”) was $297 thousand, representing one property, at June 30, 2014 compared to $1.3 million, representing seven properties, of OREO and property acquired in settlement of loans at December 31, 2013.

Deposits . Total deposits increased $23.1 million, or 2.13%, to $1.1 billion at June 30, 2014 from $1.1 billion at December 31, 2013. Non-interest bearing deposit accounts increased $71 thousand, or 0.07%, and interest-bearing deposit accounts increased $23.1 million, or 2.34%, over the same period. The balances at June 30, 2014, included $51.0 million of brokered deposits, which is an increase of $30.2 million compared to December 31, 2013. This increase represents receipt of additional brokered deposits. Deposit balances at June 30, 2014 also included $6.5 million of deposits obtained through listing services, which is unchanged compared to December 31, 2013.

Borrowings. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase decreased $7.0 million, or 25.26%, to $20.8 million at June 30, 2014, from $27.9 million at December 31, 2013. Repurchase agreements are collateralized by some of our U.S. government and agency investment securities. We had outstanding balances of $171.0 million in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) at June 30, 2014, an increase of $49.3 million from $121.7 million at December 31, 2013. In addition to advances, we had ten letters of credit totaling $40.2 million with the FHLB to secure customer deposits under pledge agreements. These letters of credit are factored against borrowing capacity with the FHLB.

Comparison of the Operating Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013 (unaudited)

Overview. Consolidated net income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $4.5 million, or $0.53 per diluted common share, compared to $3.8 million, or $0.52 per diluted common share, for the same period in 2013, an increase of $638 thousand, or 16.58%. Our net interest margin increased to 3.14% at June 30, 2014 from 2.88% at June 30, 2013, due in part to the higher interest margin from the acquisition of The Randolph National Bank in the fourth quarter of 2013. Our return on average assets and average equity for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were 0.61% and 6.06%, respectively, compared to 0.62% and 5.95%, respectively, for the same period in 2013. Our return on average assets and average stockholders’ equity for the three months ended June 30, 2014 were 0.62% and 6.33%, respectively, compared to 0.57% and 5.53%, respectively, for the same period in 2013.

Net Interest and Dividend Income. Net interest and dividend income increased $4.9 million, or 31.00%, to $20.9 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2014 compared to $16.0 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 as a result of the increase in interest-earning assets including the assets acquired from The Randolph National Bank in October of 2013 and originated portfolio growth since June 30, 2013.

Table of Contents

The following table sets forth the dollar volume of increase (decrease) in interest income and interest expense resulting from changes in the volume of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and from changes in rates for the six month periods indicated. Volume changes are computed by multiplying the volume difference by the prior period’s rate. Rate changes are computed by multiplying the rate difference by the prior period’s balance. The change in interest income and expense due to both rate and volume has been allocated proportionally between the volume and rate variances (in thousands).

Table of Contents

The following table sets forth the dollar volume of increase (decrease) in interest income and interest expense resulting from changes in the volume of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and from changes in rates for the three month periods indicated. Volume changes are computed by multiplying the volume difference by the prior period’s rate. Rate changes are computed by multiplying the rate difference by the prior period’s balance. The change in interest income and expense due to both rate and volume has been allocated proportionally between the volume and rate variances (in thousands).

Interest and Dividend Income. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, total interest and dividend income increased $4.7 million, or 24.47%, to $24.1 million compared to $19.4 million for the same period in 2013. Interest and fees on loans increased $4.8 million, or 26.26%, to $23.0 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2014 compared to $18.2 million for the same period in 2013 due primarily to increased portfolio balances, including The Randolph National Bank loans acquired in October 2013, offset in part by loans repricing to lower rates. Interest and dividends on investments and other interest decreased $35 thousand, or 2.96%, for the six month period ended June 30, 2014 due primarily to a decreased position in investments as we implemented a deleveraging strategy during 2013.

Interest Expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, total interest expense decreased $205 thousand, or 5.99%, to $3.2 million compared to $3.4 million for the same period in 2013. Interest on deposits increased $64 thousand, or 3.04%, due in part to the carrying costs of deposits acquired from The Randolph National Bank. Interest on advances and other borrowed money decreased $269 thousand, or 20.43%, to $1.0 million from $1.3 thousand for the same period in 2013 due in part to maturing higher cost advances which were renewed at lower costs since June 30, 2013.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses (not including overdraft allowances) was $700 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $550 thousand for the same period in 2013. The amount of the provision is consistent with activity in the portfolio during the related periods and allowance adequacy models. We made $9 thousand in provisions for overdraft losses in the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $26 thousand for the same period in 2013. For additional information on provisions and adequacy, please refer to the section herein on the Allowances for Loan Losses.

Noninterest Income. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, total noninterest income increased $3.0 million, or 44.99%, to $9.5 million compared to $6.6 million for the same period in 2013 as discussed below. For the six month period ended June 30, 2014, the increase in noninterest income primarily consisted of the following:

 

    Trust and investment management fee income was $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to no recorded activity for the same period in 2013 when the Bank recognized earnings under equity method accounting.

 

    Customer service fees increased $525 thousand, or 21.41%, to $3.0 million from $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The increase includes increases of $310 thousand related to increased volume of ATM and debit cards and $163 thousand in fees related to overdraft processing.

 

    Bank-owned life insurance income increased $26 thousand to $302 thousand from $276 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

 

    Gain on sales of other real estate and property owned, net increased $170 thousand to $195 thousand from $25 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

 

    Mortgage servicing income, net increased $132 thousand to $133 thousand from $1 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

partially offset by:

 

    Net gain on sales of loans decreased $1.4 million, or 89.43%, to $170 thousand compared to $1.6 million for the same period in 2013, represented by a decrease of $19.2 million in loans sold into the secondary market, to $13.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, from $28.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. This decrease reflects changes in pipelines, market rates and shifts in consumer demand of adjustable rate products that we typically hold in our portfolio.

    Gain on sales and calls of securities, net decreased $338 thousand, or 43.28%, to $443 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2014, from $781 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2013. This decrease primarily reflects the gain on the sales of approximately $73.7 million of securities sold during the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $110.5 million during the same period in 2013.

 

    Income from equity interest in Charter Holding decreased $241 thousand compared to the same period in 2013 due to the acquisition of Charter Holding during the second quarter of 2013.

Salary expense increased $2.6 million, or 38.11%, reflecting ordinary cost-of-living adjustments and additional staffing primarily related to acquisition of Charter Holding and Central Financial Corporation, which represented $1.9 million, or 75.05%, of the increase. Additional expenses from the acquisitions include $720 thousand of benefit expenses. The deferral of expenses in conjunction with the origination of loans decreased $126 thousand, or 14.02%, to $770 thousand from $896 thousand for the same period in 2013.

 

    Occupancy and equipment increased $851 thousand, or 39.95%, to $3.0 million compared to $2.1 million for the same period in 2013, which included $129 thousand related to the cost of the additional rent expense for new locations acquired from Charter Holding and Central Financial Corporation.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We are required to maintain sufficient liquidity for safe and sound operations. At June 30, 2014, our liquidity was sufficient to cover our anticipated needs for funding new loan commitments of approximately $80.1 million. Our source of funds is derived primarily from net deposit inflows, loan amortizations, principal pay downs from loans, sold loan proceeds, and advances from the FHLB. At June 30, 2014, we had approximately $157.3 in additional borrowing capacity from the FHLB.

At June 30, 2014, stockholders’ equity totaled $152.8 million, compared to $149.3 million at December 31, 2013. This reflects net income of $4.5 million, the declaration and payment of $2.1 million in common stock dividends, the declaration of $115 thousand in preferred stock dividends, cash contribution in the dividend reinvestment program of $77 thousand, vesting of stock awards of $135 thousand, exercise of common stock options of $35 thousand and $1.0 million in other comprehensive loss.

At June 30, 2014, 148,088 shares remained to be repurchased under the repurchase plan previously approved by the Board of Directors. The repurchase plan permits the repurchase of up to 253,776 shares of our common stock. The Board of Directors has determined that a share buyback is appropriate to enhance stockholder value because such repurchases generally increase earnings per common share, return on average assets and on average stockholders equity, which are three performance benchmarks against which bank and thrift holding companies are measured. We buy stock in the open market whenever the price of the stock is deemed reasonable and we have funds available for the purchase. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, no shares were repurchased.

At June 30, 2014, we had unrestricted funds available in the amount of $2.0 million. As of June 30, 2014, our total cash needs for the remainder of 2014 are estimated to be approximately $2.6 million with $2.1 million projected to be used to pay dividends on our common stock, $309 thousand to pay interest on our capital securities, $115 thousand to pay dividends on our Series B Preferred Stock (as defined below), and approximately $120 thousand for ordinary operating expenses. The Bank pays dividends to the Company as its sole stockholder, within guidelines set forth by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”). Since the Bank is well-capitalized and has capital in excess of regulatory requirements, it is anticipated that funds will be available to cover the additional Company cash requirements for 2014, as needed, as long as earnings at the Bank are sufficient to maintain adequate leverage capital.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, net cash provided by operating activities decreased $11.5 million to $1.5 million compared to cash provided of $13.0 million for the same period in 2013. Cash provided by loans sold decreased $50.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013. Net gain on sales of loans decreased $686 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Net gain on sales and calls of securities decreased $338 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013, as a result of the sale of $78.9 million of securities sold during the six months ended June 30, 2014, with lower net gains compared to approximately $110.5 million of securities sold during the same period in 2013. The provision for loan losses increased $133 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013. The change in accrued interest receivable and other assets went from a decrease of $255thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to an increase of $2.3 million for the same period in 2014. The decrease in accrued expenses and liabilities increased $1.3 million.

Net cash used in investing activities was $54.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to cash provided of $48.2 million for the same period in 2013, a change of $102.9 million. The cash provided by net securities activities was $15.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to cash provided by net securities activities of $57.8 million for the same period in 2013. Cash used to purchase FHLB stock was $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to cash provided by redemption of FHLB stock of $213 thousand for the same period in 2013. Cash used in loan originations and principal collections, net, was $60.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $52.7 million, compared to cash used of $8.0 million for the same period in 2013.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, net cash flows provided by financing activities increased $113.2 million to cash provided of $63.2 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of $49.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we experienced a net increase of $48.7 million in cash provided by deposits and securities sold under agreements to repurchase comparing cash provided of $16.1 million to cash used of $32.6 million for the same period in 2013. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we had an increase of $64.7 million of cash provided by FHLB advances and other borrowings comparing cash provided of $49.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 to cash used of $15.5 million for the same period in 2013.

On August 25, 2011, as part of the U.S. Treasury’s (“Treasury”) Small Business Lending Fund (“SBLF”) program, we entered into a letter agreement with Treasury pursuant to which we issued and sold to Treasury 20,000 shares of our Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B, par value $.01 per preferred share, having a liquidation preference of $1,000 per preferred share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”.) We used $10.0 million of the proceeds to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock issued under Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program.

On March 20, 2013, we entered into the First Amendment to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA Amendment”) with the Secretary of the Treasury, pursuant to which we issued an additional 3,000 shares of its Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B, having a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (“SBLF Preferred Stock”). The SBLF Preferred Stock was issued in exchange for the cancellation of the outstanding shares of The Nashua Bank’s Senior Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, that was assumed in the merger that was completed on December 21, 2012.

The initial rate payable on SBLF capital is, at most, 5%, and the rate falls to one percent if a bank’s small business lending increases by ten percent or more. Banks that increase their lending by less than ten percent pay rates between two percent and four percent. If a bank’s lending does not increase in the first two years, however, the rate increases to seven percent, and after 4.5 years total, the rate for all banks increases to nine percent (if the bank has not already repaid the SBLF funding). The dividend will be paid only when declared by our Board of Directors. The Series B Preferred Stock has no maturity date and ranks senior to the Common Stock with respect to the payment of dividends and distributions and amounts payable upon liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company.

The Series B Preferred Stock generally is non-voting, other than class voting on certain matters that could adversely affect the Series B Preferred Stock.

Banks are required to maintain tier one leverage capital and total risk based capital ratios of 4.00% and 8.00%, respectively. As of June 30, 2014, the Bank’s ratios were 8.15% and 12.66%, respectively, well in excess of the regulators’ requirements.

Book value per common share was $15.74 at June 30, 2014, compared to $15.37 per common share at December 31, 2013. Tangible book value per common share was $9.07 at June 30, 2014, compared to $8.59 per common share at December 31, 2013. Tangible book value per common share is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated using GAAP amounts. Tangible book value per common share is calculated by dividing tangible common equity by the total number of shares outstanding at a point in time. Tangible common equity is calculated by excluding the balance of goodwill, other intangible assets and preferred stock from the calculation of shareholders’ equity. We believe that tangible book value per common share provides information to investors that may be useful in understanding our financial condition. Because not all companies use the same calculation of tangible common equity and tangible book value per common share, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures calculated by other companies.

Capital Securities

On March 30, 2004, NHTB Capital Trust II (“Trust II”), a Connecticut statutory trust formed by the Company, completed the sale of $10.0 million of Floating Capital Securities, adjustable every three months at LIBOR plus 2.79% (“Capital Securities II”). Trust II also issued common securities to us and used the net proceeds from the offering to purchase a like amount of our Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures (“Debentures II”). Debentures II are the sole assets of Trust II. Total expenses associated with the offering of $160 thousand are included in other assets and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of Debentures II.

Capital Securities II accrue and pay distributions quarterly based on the stated liquidation amount of $10 per capital security. We have fully and unconditionally guaranteed all of the obligations of Trust II. The guaranty covers the quarterly distributions and payments on liquidation or redemption of Capital Securities II, but only to the extent that Trust II has funds necessary to make these payments.

Capital Securities II are mandatorily redeemable upon the maturing of Debentures II on March 30, 2034 or upon earlier redemption as provided in the Indenture. We have the right to redeem Debentures II, in whole or in part at the liquidation amount plus any accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date.

On March 30, 2004, NHTB Capital Trust III (“Trust III”), a Connecticut statutory trust formed by the Company, completed the sale of $10.0 million of 6.06% 5 Year Fixed-Floating Capital Securities (“Capital Securities III”). Trust III also issued common securities and used the net proceeds from the offering to purchase a like amount of our 6.06% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures (“Debentures III”). Debentures III are the sole assets of Trust III. Total expenses associated with the offering of $160 thousand are included in other assets and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of Debentures III.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Asset-Liability Management

Market risk and interest rate risk management is governed by the Asset/Liability Committee (“ALCO”). The ALCO establishes exposure limits that define our tolerance for interest rate risk. The ALCO manages the composition of the balance sheet over a range of potential fluctuations in interest rates while responding, as appropriate, to market demand for loan and deposit products. Current exposures versus limits are reported to the Board of Directors at least quarterly. The policy limits and guidelines serve as benchmarks for measuring interest rate risk and for providing a framework for evaluation and interest rate risk-management decision-making.

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that the market value or estimated fair value of our assets, liabilities, and derivative financial instruments will decline as a result of changes in interest rates or financial market volatility, or that our net income will be significantly reduced by interest rate changes.

Interest Rate Risk

The principal market risk facing us is interest rate risk, which may include repricing risk, yield-curve risk, basis risk, and prepayment risk. Repricing risk exists when the change in the average yield of either interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities is more sensitive than the other to changes in market interest rates. A change in sensitivity could reflect an imbalance in the repricing opportunities of our assets and liabilities. Yield curve risk reflects the possibility that the changes in the shape of the yield curve could have different effects on our assets and liabilities. Basis risk exists when different parts of the balance sheet are subject to varying base rates reflecting the possibility that the spread from those base rates will deviate. Prepayment risk is associated with financial instruments with an option to prepay before the stated maturity often at a time of disadvantage to the person selling the option; this risk is most often associated with the prepayment of loans, callable investments, and callable borrowings.

Interest rate risk can be measured by analyzing the extent to which the repricing of assets and liabilities are mismatched to create an interest rate sensitivity gap. An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific period if it will mature or reprice within that period. 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 same time period. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate-sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate-sensitive liabilities. A gap is considered negative when the amount of interest rate-sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest rate-sensitive assets. During a period of falling interest rates, therefore, a positive gap would tend to adversely affect net interest income. Conversely, during a period of rising interest rates, a positive gap position would tend to result in an increase in net interest income.

Income simulation is the primary tool for measuring the interest rate risk inherent in our balance sheet at a given point in time by showing the effect on net interest income, over a 12-month period, of a variety of interest rate shocks. These simulations take into account repricing, maturity and prepayment characteristics of individual products. The ALCO reviews simulation results to determine whether the exposure resulting from changes in market interest rates remains within established tolerance levels over a 12-month horizon, and develops appropriate strategies to manage this exposure.

Our one-year cumulative interest rate gap at June 30, 2014, was negative 3.24%, compared to the December 31, 2013, gap of positive 0.58%. With a liability sensitive (negative) gap, if rates were to rise, net interest margin would likely decrease and if rates were to fall, the net interest margin would likely increase. Over the next 12 months, $65.3 million more liabilities are subject to repricing than assets.

As another part of interest rate risk analysis, we use an interest rate sensitivity model, which generates estimates of the change in our economic value of equity (“EVE”) over a range of interest rate scenarios. EVE is the present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts. The EVE ratio, under any rate scenario, is defined as the EVE in that scenario divided by the market value of assets in the same scenario. Modeling changes require making certain assumptions, which may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to the changes in market interest rates. In this regard, the EVE model assumes that the composition of our interest sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the beginning of a period remain constant over

the period being measured and that a particular change in interest rates is reflected uniformly across the yield curve. Accordingly, although the EVE measurements and net interest income models provide an indication of our interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market rates on our net interest income and will likely differ from actual results.

The following table sets forth our EVE at June 30, 2014, as calculated by an independent third party agent:

Management controls the Company’s interest rate exposure using several strategies, which include adjusting the maturities of securities in the Company’s investment portfolio, limiting or expanding the terms of loans originated, monitoring and limiting, as appropriate, long-term fixed rate deposits, and laddering maturities of FHLB advances. The Company limits this risk by monitoring and limiting, as appropriate, securities it invests in to those with limited average life changes under certain interest rate shock scenarios, or securities with embedded prepayment penalties. The Company also may use derivative instruments, principally interest rate swaps, to manage its interest rate risk. The Company had no derivative fair value hedges or derivative cash flow hedges at June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
