Dodd-Frank Act	The Dodd-Frank Act was enacted on July 21, 2010 and significantly changed the bank regulatory landscape and has impacted and will continue to impact the lending, deposit, investment, trading and operating activities of financial institutions and their holding companies. The Dodd-Frank Act requires various federal agencies to adopt a broad range of new rules and regulations, and to prepare various studies and reports for Congress.

In addition, the legislation establishes new consumer protections and amends various securities- and investment company-related requirements.
RWA	Risk-weighted assets consist of on- and off-balance sheet assets that are assigned to one of several broad risk categories and weighted by factors representing their risk and potential for default. On-balance sheet assets are risk-weighted based on the perceived credit risk associated with the obligor or counterparty, the nature of any collateral, and the guarantor, if any. Off-balance sheet assets such as lending-related commitments, guarantees, derivatives and other applicable off-balance sheet positions are risk-weighted by multiplying the contractual amount by the appropriate credit conversion factor to determine the on-balance sheet credit equivalent amount, which is then risk-weighted based on the same factors used for on-balance sheet assets. Risk-weighted assets also incorporate a measure for market risk related to applicable trading assets-debt and equity instruments. The resulting risk-weighted values for each of the risk categories are then aggregated to determine total risk-weighted assets.
SBA loan pools	Business loans partially guaranteed by the SBA.
Securities sold under agreements to repurchase	Sale of securities together with an agreement for the seller to buy back the securities at a later date.
Tax Act	The Tax Act was enacted on December 22, 2017 and amended the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The legislation reduced the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent, with some related business deductions and credits being either reduced or eliminated.
TDR	A TDR is deemed to occur when the Corporation modifies the original terms of a loan agreement by granting a concession to a borrower that is experiencing financial difficulty.



Trust preferred securities	A hybrid security with characteristics of both subordinated debt and preferred stock which allows for early redemption by the issuer, makes fixed or variable payments, and matures at face value.
Unaudited	Financial statements and information that have not been subjected to auditing procedures sufficient to permit an independent certified public accountant to express an opinion.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

The Corporation, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Bank and CFS, provides a wide range of banking, financing, fiduciary and other financial services to its clients. The Corporation and the Bank are subject to the regulations of certain federal and state agencies and undergo periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities.

CRM, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation, which was formed and began operations on May 31, 2016, is a Nevada-based captive insurance company which insures against certain risks unique to the operations of the Corporation and its subsidiaries and for which insurance may not be currently available or economically feasible in today's insurance marketplace. CRM pools resources with several other similar insurance company subsidiaries of financial institutions to spread a limited amount of risk among themselves. CRM is subject to regulations of the State of Nevada and undergoes periodic examinations by the Nevada Division of Insurance.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Exchange Act. These financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its subsidiaries, and all significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Amounts in the prior periods' consolidated financial statements are reclassified whenever necessary to conform to the current period's presentation.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and disclosures provided, and actual results could differ. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) and disclosures necessary for the fair presentation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been included. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Corporation's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 . The results of operations for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire year or any other period.

Reclassifications

Some items in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation. Reclassifications had no effect on prior year net income or shareholders' equity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . The objective of the ASU is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date by replacing the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to form credit loss estimates. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, though entities may adopt the amendments earlier for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. In October 2019, the FASB voted to delay the effective date of ASU 2016-13 to January 2023 for certain entities, including certain Securities and Exchange Commission filers, public business entities, and private companies. As a smaller reporting company, the Corporation is eligible for the delay and plans to implement the standard effective January 2023. The Corporation anticipates that the adoption of the CECL model will result in an increase to the Corporation's allowance for loan losses. The Corporation has established a committee to oversee the implementation of CECL and has selected a vendor to assist in the implementation process. In 2018, the committee began establishing parameters which will be used in the CECL model with the selected vendor. The Corporation is running its current incurred loss model and a CECL model concurrently.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment . The objective of the ASU is to simplify the manner in which an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Additionally, the ASU removes the requirement for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails such qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual, or any interim, goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of the ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

On January 1, 2018, the Corporation adopted ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and all subsequent amendments to the ASU (collectively, "ASU 606"), which creates a single framework for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers that fall within its scope and revises when it is appropriate to recognize a gain (loss) from the transfer of nonfinancial assets, such as OREO. The majority of the Corporation's revenues come from interest income and other sources, including loans, securities, and derivatives that are outside the scope of ASC 606. The Corporation's services that fall within the scope of ASC 606 are presented within non-interest income and are recognized as revenue as the Corporation satisfies its obligation to the customer. Services within the scope of ASC 606 include service charges on deposits, interchange income, wealth management fees, and the sale of OREO. The amendments allow for one of two transition methods: full retrospective or modified retrospective. The full retrospective approach requires application to all periods presented. The modified retrospective transition requires application to uncompleted contracts at the date of adoption. Periods prior to the date of adoption are not retrospectively revised, but a cumulative effect is recognized at the date of initial application on uncompleted contracts. The Corporation adopted the new revenue guidance using the modified retrospective approach. There was no significant change upon adoption of the standard, as the new standard did not materially change the way the Corporation currently records revenue for its WMG and deposit related fees at the Bank; as such, no cumulative effect adjustment was recorded. Refer to Note 10 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers for further discussion on the Corporation's accounting policies for revenue sources within the scope of ASC 606.

On January 1, 2018, the Corporation adopted ASU 2016-01, an amendment to Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ("ASC 825"). The objectives of the ASC 825 were (1) require equity investments to be measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in net income, (2) simplify the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values, (3) eliminate the requirement to disclose methods and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet, (4) require the use of the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments, and (5) clarify the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets. The Corporation adopted all provisions of this ASU using the modified retrospective method. The adjustments to opening retained earnings and accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the adoption of ASC 825 are immaterial to the financial statements.

On January 1, 2018, the Corporation adopted ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments . The objective of the ASU is to reduce the existing diversity in practice relating to eight specific cash flow issues: (1) debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, (2) settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing, (3) contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, (4) proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims, (5) proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, including bank-owned life insurance policies, (6) distributions received from equity method investees, (7) beneficial interests in securitization transactions, and (8) separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principal. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not result in a change to how the Corporation accounts for its cash flows.

On January 1, 2018, the Corporation adopted ASU 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost ("ASC 715"). The objective of ASC 715 was to improve guidance related to the presentation of defined benefit costs in the income statement. Specifically, ASC 715 required that an employer report the service cost component in the same line item(s) as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented. Additionally, ASC 715 allows only the service cost component to be eligible for capitalization, when applicable. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under ASC 715, while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with legacy GAAP, with comparable periods presented retrospectively for the presentation of the service cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost in the income statement. The Corporation elected the practical expedient, which permits employers to use the amounts disclosed in its pension and other postretirement benefit plan note for the prior comparative periods as the estimation for applying retrospective presentation requirements.

On January 1, 2019, the Corporation adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) . ASU 2016-02 requires companies that lease valuable assets to recognize on their balance sheets the assets and liabilities generated by contracts longer than a year. The Corporation adopted the new lease guidance using the modified retrospective approach and elected the transition option issued under ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements , allowing entities to continue to apply the legacy guidance in ASC 840, Leases , to prior periods, including disclosure requirements. Accordingly, prior period financial results and disclosures have not been adjusted. In addition, the Corporation elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allowed the Corporation to carry forward the historical lease classification. Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities of approximately $8.6 million as of January 1, 2019. The standard did not materially impact our consolidated net earnings and had no impact on cash flows.

On January 1, 2019, the Corporation adopted ASU 2017-08, Receivables - Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities . The objective of the ASU is to align the amortization period of premiums and discounts to expectations incorporated in market pricing on the underlying securities. The amendment requires that the premium be amortized to the earliest call date, but does not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount; the discount continues to be amortized to maturity. The adoption of the ASU did not have a significant impact on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 EARNING PER COMMON SHARE (shares in thousands)

Basic earnings per share is net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Issuable shares, including those related to directors’ restricted stock units and directors’ stock compensation, are considered outstanding and are included in the computation of basic earnings per share. All outstanding unvested share based payment awards that contain rights to non-forfeitable dividends are considered participating securities for this calculation. Restricted stock awards are grants of participating securities and are considered outstanding at grant date. Earnings per share information is adjusted to present comparative results for stock splits and stock dividends that occur. Earnings per share were computed by dividing net income by 4,871 and 4,834 weighted average shares outstanding for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. Earnings per share were computed by dividing net income by 4,866 and 4,828 weighted average shares outstanding for the nine -month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. There were no common stock equivalents during the three and nine -month periods ended September 30, 2019 or 2018 .

Other-Than-Temporary Impairment

As of September 30, 2019 , the majority of the Corporation’s unrealized losses in the investment securities portfolio related to mortgage-backed securities. At September 30, 2019 , all of the unrealized losses related to mortgage-backed securities were issued by U.S. government sponsored entities, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because it is not likely that the Corporation will be required to sell these securities before their anticipated recovery, the Corporation does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2019 .

Equity Investments

Beginning January 1, 2018, upon adoption of ASU 2016-01, equity securities with readily determinable fair values are stated at fair value with realized and unrealized gains and losses reported in the consolidated statement of income.

NOTE 4 LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

Troubled Debt Restructurings:

A modification of a loan may result in classification as a TDR when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the modification constitutes a concession. The Corporation offers various types of modifications which may involve a change in the schedule of payments, a reduction in the interest rate, an extension of the maturity date, extending the maturity date at an interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, requesting additional collateral, releasing collateral for consideration, substituting or adding a new borrower or guarantor, a permanent reduction of the recorded investment in the loan or a permanent reduction of the interest on the loan.

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the Corporation has a recorded investment in TDRs of $9.3 million and $6.8 million , respectively. There were specific reserves of $2.4 million and $0.9 million allocated for TDRs at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively. As of September 30, 2019 , TDRs totaling $0.9 million were accruing interest under the modified terms and $8.4 million were on non-accrual status. As of December 31, 2018 , TDRs totaling $0.8 million were accruing interest under the modified terms and $6.0 million were on non-accrual status. The Corporation had committed no additional amounts as of both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , to customers with outstanding loans that are classified as TDRs.

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, the terms of a loan was modified as a TDR, while there were no loans modified as TDRs during the three months ended September 30, 2018. The modification of the terms of one commercial real estate term loan during the three months ended September 30, 2019 included a reduction of the scheduled amortized payments for greater than a three month period.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the terms of certain loans were modified as TDRs. In addition to the modification noted above, the modification of the terms of one home equity loan during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 included a reduction in the stated interest rate for the remaining life of the loan, an extension of the maturity date for approximately three years, and a reduction of the scheduled amortized payment of the loan for greater than a three month period. The modification of the terms of one commercial and industrial term loan during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 included an extension of the maturity date at a stated rate of interest lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk.

The following tables present loans by class modified as TDRs that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 (dollars in thousands):

The TDRs described above increased the allowance for loan losses by $1.7 million and resulted in no charge-offs during the nine month period ended September 30, 2019 . The TDRs described above did not increase the allowance for loan losses and resulted in no charge-offs during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 .

A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 90 days contractually past due under the modified terms. There were no payment defaults on any loans previously modified as TDRs within twelve months following the modification during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 .

Credit Quality Indicators

The Corporation establishes a risk rating at origination for all commercial loans. The main factors considered in assigning risk ratings include, but are not limited to: historic and future debt service coverage, collateral position, operating performance, liquidity, leverage, payment history, management ability, and the customer’s industry. Commercial relationship managers monitor all loans in their respective portfolios for any changes in the borrower’s ability to service its debt and affirm the risk ratings for the loans at least annually.

For the retail loans, which include residential mortgages, indirect and direct consumer loans, home equity lines and loans, and credit cards, once a loan is properly approved and closed, the Corporation evaluates credit quality based upon loan repayment.

The Corporation uses the risk rating system to identify criticized and classified loans. Commercial relationships within the criticized and classified risk ratings are analyzed quarterly. The Corporation uses the following definitions for criticized and classified loans (which are consistent with regulatory guidelines):

Special Mention – Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or the institution’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard – Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capability of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful – Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Commercial loans not meeting the criteria above to be considered criticized or classified are considered to be pass rated loans. Loans listed as not rated are included in groups of homogeneous loans performing under terms of the loan notes. Based on the analyses performed as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the risk category of the recorded investment of loans by class of loans is as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 5 FAIR VALUE

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

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

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

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

The Corporation used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value on a recurring basis:

Available for Sale Securities: The fair values of securities available for sale are usually determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs), or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities' relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3 inputs).

Equity Investments: Securities that are held to fund a deferred compensation plan and securities that have a readily determinable fair market value, are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value included in earnings. The fair values of equity investments are determined by quoted market prices (Level 1 inputs).

Impaired Loans : At the time a loan is considered impaired, it is valued at the lower of cost or fair value. Impaired loans carried at fair value have been partially charged-off or receive specific allocations as part of the allowance for loan loss accounting. For collateral dependent loans, fair value is commonly based on real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, typically resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Impaired loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly.

OREO : Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosures are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Appraisals for both collateral-dependent impaired loans and OREO are performed by certified general appraisers (commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Corporation. Once received, appraisals are reviewed for reasonableness of assumptions, approaches utilized, Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice and other regulatory compliance, as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics. Appraisals are generally completed within the previous 12 month period prior to a property being placed into OREO. On impaired loans, appraisal values are adjusted based on the age of the appraisal, the position of the lien, the type of the property and its condition.

Derivatives : The fair values of interest rate swaps are based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2 inputs). Derivatives are traded in an over-the-counter market where quoted market prices are not always available. Therefore, the fair values of derivatives are determined using quantitative models that utilize multiple market inputs. The inputs will vary based on the type of derivative, but could include interest rates, prices, and indices to generate continuous yield or pricing curves, prepayment rates, and volatility factors to value the position. The Corporation also incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counter-party's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Corporation has considered the impact of any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings. Although the Corporation has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize credit default rate assumptions (Level 3 inputs).

NOTE 8 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Corporation is a party to certain financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk such as commitments under standby letters of credit, unused portions of lines of credit, overdraft protection and commitments to fund new loans. In accordance with GAAP, these financial instruments are not recorded in the financial statements. The Corporation's policy is to record such instruments when funded. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are generally used by the Corporation to manage clients' requests for funding and other client needs.

The following table lists the contractual amounts of financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (in thousands):

A description of the Corporation's revenue streams accounted for under ASC 606 follows:

Service Charges on Deposit Accounts: The Corporation earns fees from its deposit customers for transaction-based, account maintenance, and overdraft services. Transaction-based fees, which included services such as ATM use fees, stop payment charges, statement rendering, and ACH fees, are recognized at the time the transaction is executed as that is the point in time the Corporation fulfills the customer's request. Account maintenance fees, which relate primarily to monthly maintenance, are recognized at the time the maintenance occurs. Overdraft fees are recognized at the point in time that the overdraft occurs. Service charges on deposits are withdrawn from the customer's account balance.

Interchange Income from Debit Card Transactions: The Corporation earns interchange fees from debit cardholder transactions conducted through the MasterCard payment network. Interchange fees from cardholder transactions represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value and are recognized daily, concurrently with the transaction processing services provided to cardholder.

WMG Fee Income (Gross): The Corporation earns wealth management fees from its contracts with customers to manage assets for investment, and/or to conduct transactions on their accounts. These fees are primarily earned over time as the Corporation provides the contracted monthly or quarterly services and are generally assessed based on a tiered scale of the market value of assets under management (AUM) at quarter-end.

CFS Fee and Commission Income (Net): The Corporation earns fees from investment brokerage services provided to its customers by a third-party service provider. The Corporation receives commissions from the third-party service provider on a monthly basis based upon customer activity for the month. The Corporation (i) acts as an agent in arranging the relationship between the customer and the third-party service provider and (ii) does not control the services rendered to the customers. Investment brokerage fees are presented net of related costs. The Corporation also earns fees from tax services provided to its customers.

Net Gains/Losses on Sales of OREO: The Corporation records a gain or loss from the sale of OREO when control of the property transfers to the buyer, which generally occurs at the time of an executed deed. When the Corporation finances the sale of OREO to the buyer, the Corporation assesses whether the buyer is committed to perform their obligations under the contract and whether collectability of the transaction price is probable. Once these criteria are met, the OREO asset is derecognized and the gain or loss on sale is recorded upon the transfer of control of the property to the buyer. In determining the gain or loss on the sale, the Corporation adjusts the transaction price and related gain (loss) on sale if a significant financing component is present.

NOTE 12 SEGMENT REPORTING

The Corporation manages its operations through two primary business segments: core banking and WMG. The core banking segment provides revenues by attracting deposits from the general public and using such funds to originate consumer, commercial, commercial real estate, and residential mortgage loans, primarily in the Corporation’s local markets, and to invest in securities. The WMG services segment provides revenues by providing trust and investment advisory services to clients.

Accounting policies for the segments are the same as those described in Note 1 of the Corporation’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 13, 2019. Summarized financial information concerning the Corporation’s reportable segments and the reconciliation to the Corporation’s consolidated results are shown in the following table. Income taxes are allocated based on the separate taxable income of each entity and indirect overhead expenses are allocated based on reasonable and equitable allocations applicable to the reportable segment. The Holding Company, CFS, and CRM column below includes amounts to eliminate transactions between segments (in thousands).

NOTE 13 STOCK COMPENSATION

Board of Directors' Stock Compensation

Pursuant to the Corporation's Directors' Compensation Plan, members of the Board of Directors receive common shares of the Corporation based on fees individually earned during the previous year for service as a director. The common shares are distributed to the Corporation's individual board members from treasury shares of the Corporation on or about January 15 following the calendar year of service.

Additionally, the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation, who does not receive cash compensation as a member of the Board of Directors, is awarded common shares equal in value to the average of those awarded to board members not employed by the Corporation who have served for 12 months during the prior year.

During January 2019 and 2018 , 8,465 and 6,015 shares, respectively, were re-issued from treasury to fund the stock component of directors' compensation. An expense of $79 thousand and $86 thousand related to this compensation was recognized during the three month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. An expense of $256 thousand and $271 thousand related to this compensation was recognized during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. This expense is accrued as shares are earned.

Restricted Stock Plan

Pursuant to the Corporation’s Restricted Stock Plan, the Corporation may make discretionary grants of restricted stock to officers other than the Corporation's Chief Executive Officer. Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period of the awards based on the fair value of the stock at issue date.

A summary of restricted stock activity for the three month period ended September 30, 2019 is presented below:



	Shares	Weighted–Average Grant Date Fair Value
Nonvested at July 1, 2019	29,436	$	41.03
Granted	—	—
Vested	—	—
Forfeited or cancelled	—	—
Nonvested at September 30, 2019	29,436	$	41.03

A summary of restricted stock activity for the nine month period ended September 30, 2019 is presented below:

Vested	(697	)	34.58
Forfeited or cancelled	—		—
Nonvested at September 30, 2019	29,436		$	41.03

As of September 30, 2019 , there was $0.9 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested shares granted under the Plan. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.05 years.

Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Introduction

The following is the MD&A of the Corporation in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 . Reference should be made to the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and footnotes, and the Corporation’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 13, 2019, for an understanding of the following discussion and analysis. See the list of commonly used abbreviations and terms on pages 3–6.

The MD&A included in this Form 10-Q contains statements that are forward-looking within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on the current beliefs and expectations of the Corporation's management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. For a discussion of those risks and uncertainties and the factors that could cause the Corporation’s actual results to differ materially from those risks and uncertainties, see Forward-looking Statements below and in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, on pages 19–28 of the Corporation’s 2018 Form 10-K. For a discussion of use of non-GAAP financial measures, see pages 67–70 of the Corporation's 2018 Form 10-K and pages 71-75 in this Form 10-Q.

The Corporation has been a financial holding company since 2000, the Bank was established in 1833, CFS in 2001, and CRM in 2016. Through the Bank and CFS, the Corporation provides a wide range of financial services, including demand, savings and time deposits, commercial, residential and consumer loans, interest rate swaps, letters of credit, wealth management services, employee benefit plans, insurance products, mutual funds and brokerage services. The Bank relies substantially on a foundation of locally generated deposits. The Corporation, on a stand-alone basis, has minimal results of operations. The Bank derives its income primarily from interest and fees on loans, interest income on investment securities, WMG fee income, and fees received in connection with deposit and other services. The Bank’s operating expenses are interest expense paid on deposits and borrowings, salaries and employee benefit plans, and general operating expenses. CRM is a Nevada-based captive insurance company which insures against certain risks unique to the operations of the Corporation and its subsidiaries and for which insurance may not be currently available or economically feasible in today's insurance marketplace. CRM pools resources with several other similar insurance company subsidiaries of financial institutions to spread a limited amount of risk among themselves.

Forward-looking Statements

This discussion contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. The Corporation intends its forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements in these sections. All statements regarding the Corporation's expected financial position and operating results, the Corporation's business strategy, the Corporation's financial plans, forecasted demographic and economic trends relating to the Corporation's industry and similar matters are forward-looking statements. These statements can sometimes be identified by the Corporation's use of forward-looking words such as "may," "will," "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," or "intend." The Corporation cannot guarantee that its expectations in such forward-looking statements will turn out to be correct. The Corporation's actual results could be materially different from expectations because of various factors, including changes in economic conditions or interest rates, credit risk, difficulties in managing the Corporation’s growth, competition, changes in law or the regulatory environment, including the Dodd-Frank Act, and changes in general business and economic trends. Information concerning these and other factors can be found in the Corporation’s periodic filings with the SEC, including the discussion under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Corporation’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These filings are available publicly on the SEC’s web site at http://www.sec.gov, on the Corporation's web site at http://www.chemungcanal.com or upon request from the Corporate Secretary at (607) 737-3746. Except as otherwise required by law, the Corporation undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

In addition to analyzing the Corporation’s results on a reported basis, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures because it believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide information to investors about the underlying operational performance and trends of the Corporation and, therefore, facilitate a comparison of the Corporation with the performance of its competitors. Non-GAAP financial measures used by the Corporation may not be comparable to similarly named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Refer to pages 71-75 for further explanation and reconciliation of the Corporation’s use of non-GAAP measures.

Net income for the third quarter of 2019 was $2.0 million , or $0.40 per share, compared with $6.9 million , or $1.43 per share, for the same period in the prior year. Return on average equity for the current quarter was 4.29% , compared with 17.81% for the prior year quarter. The decrease in net income was due to an increase in provision for loan losses and a decrease in non-interest income, offset by a decrease in income tax expense.

Net interest income

Net interest income increased by less than $0.1 million , or 0.4% , compared with the same period in the prior year. The increase was due primarily to an increase in interest and dividend income, offset by an increase in total interest expense.

Non-interest income

Non-interest income decreased $2.4 million , or 32.9% , compared with the same period in the prior year. The decrease can be mostly attributed to a decrease in the change in fair value of equity investments. The decrease was due primarily to an increase in the fair value of Visa Class B shares in the third quarter of 2018, which were subsequently sold during the third quarter of 2018.

Non-interest expense

Non-interest expense increased $0.1 million , or 0.7% , compared with the same period in the prior year. The increase was due primarily to increases in salaries and wages, pension and other employee benefits, furniture and equipment expenses, and a reduced credit in other components of net periodic pension cost and post-retirement benefits, offset by decreases in net occupancy expense and FDIC insurance expense. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 , non-interest expense to average assets was 3.05% , compared with 3.13% for the same period in the prior year.

Provision for loan losses

The provision for loan losses increased $4.1 million , compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase can be mostly attributed to a specific impairment of $4.2 million related to a participating interest in a commercial credit. Net charge-offs for the third quarter of 2019 were $0.2 million , compared with $0.3 million for the third quarter of 2018 .

Income tax expense

Income tax expense was $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of $1.6 million when compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was due primarily to a decrease of $6.6 million in income before income tax expense for the third quarter of 2019 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The effective tax rate decreased from 20.6% for the third quarter of 2018 to 8.3% for the third quarter of 2019 .

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $11.4 million , or $2.34 per share, compared with $13.9 million , or $2.88 per share, for the same period in the prior year. Return on average equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was 8.76% , compared with 12.22% for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in net income from the prior year period was driven by a decrease in non-interest income, and an increase in provision for loan losses, offset by decreases in non-interest expense and income tax expense, and an increase in net interest income.

Net interest income

Net interest income increased $0.4 million , or 0.9% , compared with the same period in the prior year. The increase can be mostly attributed to an increase in interest income on loans, including fees, an increase in interest income from interest-earning deposits, and a decrease in interest expense on borrowed funds, offset by an increase in interest expense on interest-bearing deposits.

Non-interest income

Non-interest income decreased $3.2 million , or 17.7% , compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was due primarily to decreases in other non-interest income, net gains (losses) on sales of other real estate owned, and change in fair value of equity investments. The decrease in other non-interest income was due to a New York sales tax refund received in March 2018, and additional rental income from OREO property received in the prior year, and a decrease in swap fees, partially offset by an increase in CFS fee and commission income.

Non-interest expense

Non-interest expense decreased $1.7 million , or 4.0% , compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was due primarily to decreases in legal accruals and settlements, net occupancy expenses, furniture and equipment expenses, other non-interest expenses, marketing and advertising expenses, professional services, other real estate owned expenses, and FDIC insurance. These items were partially offset by an increase in other components of net periodic pension cost (benefits), and salaries and wages. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 , non-interest expense to average assets was 3.12% , compared with 3.34% for the same period in the prior year.

Provision for loan losses

The provision for loan losses increased $2.3 million , or 68.6% , compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in the provision for loan losses can be mostly attributed to a third quarter impairment of a participating interest in a commercial credit for $4.2 million, offset by a decrease in the loan portfolio of $14.0 million between September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2019. Net charge-offs decreased $4.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared with the same period in the prior year, mostly due to the charge-off of multiple large commercial loans to one borrower during the first nine months of 2018.

Income tax expense

Income tax expense decreased $0.9 million , or 27.1% , compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was due primarily to a decrease in income before income tax expense. The effective income tax rate decreased from 19.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to 17.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Consolidated Results of Operations

The following section of the MD&A provides a comparative discussion of the Corporation’s Consolidated Results of Operations on a reported basis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 . For a discussion of the Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Risks and Uncertainties that affect the Consolidated Results of Operations, see page 71 of this Form 10-Q and page 67 of the Corporation’s 2018 Form 10-K.

Net Interest Income

The following table presents net interest income for the periods indicated, and the dollar and percent change (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2019		2018		Change		Percentage Change
Interest and dividend income	$	16,808	$	16,136	$	672	4.2	%
Interest expense	1,666		1,057		609		57.6	%
Net interest income	$	15,142	$	15,079	$	63	0.4	%

Net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned on interest-earning assets such as loans and securities, and the interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities such as deposits and borrowings, is the largest contributor to the Corporation’s earnings.

Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 increased less than $0.1 million , or 0.4% , to $15.1 million compared to the same period in the prior year, due primarily to a $0.7 million increase in total interest and dividend income, offset by a $0.6 million increase in total interest expense. Interest and fees from loans increased $0.1 million, interest from taxable securities increased $0.1 million, and interest from interest-earning deposits increased $0.4 million, in the third quarter of 2019 as compared to the same period in the prior year. Interest expense on deposits increased $0.8 million, while interest expense on borrowed funds decreased $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2019 when compared to the same period in the prior year. Fully taxable equivalent net interest margin was 3.63% in the third quarter of 2019, compared with 3.71% for the same period in the prior year.

The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 7 basis points, while the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 22 basis points in the third quarter of 2019, compared to the same period in the prior year. Average interest-earning assets increased $40.7 million compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in interest and dividend income for the current quarter can be mostly attributed to average annualized yield increases of 12 basis points on commercial loans, 25 basis points on consumer loans, and 23 basis points in taxable securities, along with a $74.1 million increase in the average balance of interest-earning deposits, offset by a $30.9 million decrease in the average balance of consumer loans, compared to the same period in the prior year.

The increase in interest expense for the current quarter can be mostly attributed to an increase in interest rates on average interest-bearing deposit accounts, including promotional rates on time deposits, offset by a $29.1 million decrease in the average balance of FHLB advances, other debt and repurchase agreements.

The following table presents net interest income for the periods indicated, and the dollar and percent change (in thousands):



	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2019		2018		Change		Percentage Change
Interest and dividend income	$	50,155	$	47,674	$	2,481	5.2	%
Interest expense	4,745		2,678		2,067		77.2	%
Net interest income	$	45,410	$	44,996	$	414	0.9	%

Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 totaled $45.4 million compared with $45.0 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $0.4 million , or 0.9% . Interest and fees from loans increased $0.8 million, and interest from interest-earning deposits increased $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the same period in the prior year. Interest expense on borrowed funds and interest expense on securities sold under agreements to repurchase decreased $0.5 million and $0.1 million respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in the prior year. These items were partially offset by an increase in interest expense on deposits of $2.7 million on deposits for the nine month period ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in the prior year. Fully taxable equivalent net interest margin was 3.67% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with 3.73% for the same period in the prior year. Average interest-earning assets increased $39.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in the prior year.

The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 10 basis points, while the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 25 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in the average yield on interest-earning assets can be mostly attributed to an increase in the average balance of interest-earning deposits of $87.7 million, and a 16 basis points increase in the average yield on commercial loans, due to an increase in PRIME and LIBOR. The increase in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities can be attributed to a 20 basis points increase in the average cost of savings and money market accounts due to rising rates, and an 85 basis points increase in the average cost of time deposits due to promotions, offset by a $36.6 million decrease in the average balance of FHLB advances, securities sold under agreement to repurchase, and other debt due to the maturity of one $2.0 million FHLB term advance (3.05% rate) in January 2018, and one $10.0 million repurchase agreement (3.72% rate) in May 2018.

Changes Due to Rate and Volume

Net interest income can be analyzed in terms of the impact of changes in rates and volumes. The tables below illustrate the extent to which changes in interest rates and the volume of average interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities have affected the Corporation’s interest income and interest expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 . Information is provided in each category with respect to (i) changes attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate); (ii) changes attributable to changes in rates (changes in rates multiplied by prior volume); and (iii) the net changes. For purpose of these tables , changes that are not due solely to volume or rate changes have been allocated to these categories based on the respective percentage changes in average volume and rate. Due to the numerous simultaneous volume and rate changes during the periods analyzed, it is not possible to precisely allocate changes between volume and rates. In addition, average interest-earning assets include non-accrual loans and taxable equivalent adjustments were made.

Provision for loan losses

Management performs an ongoing assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based upon a number of factors including an analysis of historical loss factors, collateral evaluations, recent charge-off experience, credit quality of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and loan growth. Based on this analysis, the provision for loan losses for the third quarter of 2019 and 2018 was $ 4.4 million and $0.3 million , respectively. The increase in the provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in the prior year, can be mostly attributed to the impairment of a participating interest in a commercial credit for $4.2 million due to potentially fraudulent activity during the third quarter of 2019.

The provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $5.7 million and $3.4 million , respectively. The increase in the provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 , compared to the same period in the prior year, can be mostly attributed to the impairment of a participating interest in a commercial credit for $4.2 million due to a potentially fraudulent activity in the third quarter of 2019, offset by a decrease in the total loan portfolio of $14.0 million between September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2019. Additionally, during 2018 there was an increase in the historical loss factor of the commercial and industrial loan portfolio, due to the charge-off of multiple large commercial loans to one borrower for $3.6 million during the second quarter of 2018.

Net charge-offs for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were $0.2 million and $0.3 million , respectively. Net charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were $0.7 million and $4.9 million , respectively. The decrease in net charge offs for the nine month period ended September 30, 2019 can be attributed to the charge-off of multiple large commercial loans to one borrower for $3.6 million during the second quarter of 2018.

Total non-interest income for the third quarter of 2019 decreased $2.4 million compared with the same period in the prior year. The decrease can be mostly attributed to a decrease of $2.2 million in the changes in fair value of equity investments.

Changes in Fair Value of Equity Investments

The decrease was due primarily to an increase in the fair value of Visa Class B shares in the third quarter of 2018, which were then subsequently sold during the third quarter of 2018.

The following table presents non-interest income for the periods indicated, and the dollar and percent change (in thousands):

Total non-interest income	$	14,967		$	18,181	$	(3,214	)	(17.7	)%

Total non-interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 decreased $3.2 million compared with the same period in the prior year. The decrease was mostly due to decreases in changes in fair value of equity investments, other non-interest income, and net gains (losses) on sales of other real estate owned, partially offset by an increase in CFS fee and commission income.

Changes in fair value of equity investments

The decrease in changes in fair value of equity investments was due primarily to an increase in the fair value of Visa Class B shares of $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2018, which were then subsequently sold during the third quarter of 2018.

Other

The decrease in other non-interest income, compared to the same period in the prior year, can be mostly attributed to a $0.4 million New York State sales tax refund received during the first quarter of 2018, and decreases in swap fee income and rental income from OREO.

Net gains (losses) on sales of other real estate owned

The decrease in net gains (losses) on sales of other real estate owned was due to net losses on the sale of ten properties in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 versus net gains on the sale of seven properties in the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

CFS fee and commission income

The increase in CFS fee and commission income, compared to the same period in the prior year, can be mostly attributed to an increase in annuity commissions.

Total non-interest expense	$	13,525		$	13,428		$	97		0.7	%

Total non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2019 increased $0.1 million compared with the same period in the prior year. The increase was due to an increase in total compensation expense, offset by a decrease in total non-compensation expense.

Compensation expense

The increase in compensation expense, compared to the same period in the prior year, can mostly be attributed to annual merit increases and a reduced credit in other components of net periodic pension and postretirement benefits. The increase in pension and other employee benefits was due primarily to increased health care costs.

Non-compensation expense

The decrease in non-compensation expense, compared to the same period in the prior year, can be mostly attributed to decreases in net occupancy expense and FDIC insurance expense. The decrease in net occupancy expense was mostly attributable to the closing of the Oakdale Mall and Painted Post branches in 2019. The decrease in FDIC insurance expense was primarily due to the receipt of a $0.2 million credit related to the Deposit Insurance Fund's (DIF) minimum reserve ratio assessment.

The following table presents non-interest expense for the periods indicated, and the dollar and percent change (in thousands):

Total non-interest expense	$	40,845		$	42,561		$	(1,716	)	(4.0	)%

Total non-interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 decreased $1.7 million compared with the same period in the prior year. The decrease was due to a decrease in total non-compensation expense, offset by an increase in total compensation expense.

Compensation expense

The increase in compensation expense, compared to the same period in the prior year, can be mostly attributable to an increase in salaries and wages and a reduced credit in other components of net periodic pension benefits. The increase in salaries and wages can be attributed to annual merit increases. The decrease in the benefit in other components of net periodic pension and post-retirement benefits was due to a change in assumptions used to prepare annual actuarial expense estimates.

Non-compensation expense

The decrease in non-compensation expense, compared to the same period in the prior year, can be mostly attributed to decreases in legal accruals and settlements, net occupancy expenses, furniture and equipment expenses, other non-interest expenses, marketing and advertising expenses, professional services, other real estate owned, and FDIC insurance. The decrease in legal accruals and settlements can be attributed to the settlement agreement in the matter of Fane vs. Chemung Canal Trust Company during the second quarter of 2018. The decrease in net occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses was mostly attributable to runoff in depreciation expense related to mechanical equipment, the closing of the Oakdale Mall and Painted Post branches, as well as a reduction in non-capitalizable fixed asset purchases as compared to the prior year period due to the opening of two new branches in 2018. The decrease in marketing and advertising expenses was due to promotional expenses associated with the opening of two new branches during 2018. The decrease in professional services was due to consulting fees incurred in the prior year associated with the NYS sales tax refund received in March 2018. The decrease in OREO expenses can be attributed to fewer OREO properties retained in the first nine months of 2019 as compared to the first nine months of 2018. The decrease in FDIC insurance expense was primarily due to the receipt of a $0.2 million credit related to the Deposit Insurance Fund's (DIF) minimum reserve ratio assessment.

Income tax expense

The following table presents income tax expense and the effective tax rate for the periods indicated, and the dollar and percent change (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2019			2018			Change			Percentage Change
Income before income tax expense	$	2,132		$	8,732		$	(6,600	)	(75.6	)%
Income tax expense	176			1,802			(1,626		)	(90.2	)%
Effective tax rate	8.3		%	20.6		%

Income tax expense for the current quarter was $0.2 million compared to $1.8 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in income tax expense was due primarily to a decrease of $6.6 million in income before income tax expense. The effective income tax rate decreased from 20.6% for the third quarter of 2018 to 8.3% for the third quarter of 2019.

The following table presents income tax expense and the effective tax rate for the periods indicated, and the dollar and percent change (in thousands):

Effective tax rate	17.6		%	19.4		%

Income tax expense for the nine months ended 2019 and 2018 were $2.4 million and $3.3 million, respectively. The decrease in income tax expense was due primarily to a decrease of $3.4 million in income before income tax expense. The effective income tax rate decreased from 19.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to 17.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The increase in cash and cash equivalents can be attributed to changes in securities, loans, and deposits.

Investment securities

The increase in investment securities can be mostly attributed to purchases in the amount of $67.6 million, offset by $15.2 million in sales of mortgage-backed and municipal securities, along with maturities and paydowns.

Loans, net

The decrease in total loans, net, can be mostly attributed to decreases of $9.6 million in commercial mortgages, $12.9 million in indirect consumer loans, and $8.4 million in other consumer loans, partially offset by an increase of $24.2 million in commercial and agriculture loans and $1.3 million in residential mortgages.

Goodwill and other intangible assets, net

The decrease in goodwill and other intangible assets, net can be attributed to the amortization of intangible assets.

Other assets

The increase in other assets can be mostly attributed to an increase of $8.6 million in operating lease right-of-use assets related to the adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 Leases as of January 1, 2019.

Deposits

The increase in deposits can be attributed to increases of $28.6 million in interest-bearing demand deposits and $19.6 million in time deposits, offset by decreases of $27.8 million in money market accounts, and $11.8 million in non-interest-bearing demand deposits. The decrease in non-interest-bearing demand deposit can be mostly attributed to an outflow of personal deposits and the decrease in money market accounts can be mostly attributed to an outflow of municipal deposits.

Other liabilities

The increase in other liabilities can be mostly attributed to an increase in operating lease liabilities related to the January 1, 2019 adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 Leases, and an increase in interest rate swap liabilities.

Shareholders’ equity

Shareholders’ equity was $182.0 million at September 30, 2019 compared with $165.0 million at December 31, 2018 . The increase in retained earnings of $7.6 million can be mostly attributed to earnings of $11.4 million , offset by $3.8 million in dividends declared during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 . The decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $8.1 million can be mostly attributed to the increase in the fair market value of the securities portfolio. Also, treasury stock decreased $0.6 million, due to the issuance of shares to the Corporation's employee benefit stock plans and directors' stock plans.

Assets under management or administration

The market value of total assets under management or administration in WMG was $1.863 billion at September 30, 2019 , including $301.3 million of assets held under management or administration for the Corporation, compared with $1.768 billion at December 31, 2018 , including $283.0 million of assets held under management or administration for the Corporation, an increase of $94.4 million, or 5.3%. The growth in total assets under management or administration can be mostly attributed to an increase in the market value of total assets.

Securities

The Corporation’s Funds Management Policy includes an investment policy that in general, requires debt securities purchased for the bond portfolio to carry a minimum agency rating of "A". After an independent credit analysis is performed, the policy also allows the Corporation to purchase local municipal obligations that are not rated. The Corporation intends to maintain a reasonable level of securities to provide adequate liquidity and in order to have securities available to pledge to secure public deposits, repurchase agreements and other types of transactions. Fluctuations in the fair value of the Corporation’s securities relate primarily to changes in interest rates.

Marketable securities are classified as Available for Sale, while investments in local municipal obligations are generally classified as Held to Maturity. The composition of the available for sale segment of the securities portfolio is summarized in the table as follows (in thousands):



SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE
	September 30, 2019						December 31, 2018
	Amortized Cost		Estimated Fair Value		Percent of Total Estimated Fair Value		Amortized Cost		Estimated Fair Value		Percent of Total Estimated Fair Value

Total	$	262,901	$	267,529	100.0	%	$	248,496	$	242,258	100.0	%

The available for sale segment of the securities portfolio totaled $267.5 million at September 30, 2019 , an increase of $25.3 million , or 10.4% , from $242.3 million at December 31, 2018 . The increase can be mostly attributed to purchases in the amount of $67.5 million, offset by $15.2 million in sales of mortgage-backed and municipal securities, and $37.2 million in proceeds from maturities, calls, and principal paydowns on securities available for sale.

The held to maturity segment of the securities portfolio consists of obligations of political subdivisions in the Corporation’s market areas and certificates of deposit. These securities totaled $3.4 million at September 30, 2019 , a decrease of $1.4 million , or 29.1% , from $4.9 million at December 31, 2018 , mostly attributed to maturities.

Loans

The Corporation has reporting systems to monitor: (i) loan origination and concentrations, (ii) delinquent loans, (iii) non-performing assets, including non-performing loans, troubled debt restructurings, and other real estate owned, (iv) impaired loans, and (v) potential problem loans. Management reviews these systems on a regular basis.

The table below presents the Corporation’s loan composition by segment at the dates indicated, and the dollar and percent change from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019 (in thousands):



LOANS
	September 30, 2019		December 31, 2018		Dollar Change			Percentage Change
Commercial and agricultural	$	227,098	$	202,854	$	24,244		12.0	%
Commercial mortgages	651,605		661,170		(9,565		)	(1.4	)%
Residential mortgages	184,013		182,724		1,289			0.7	%

Total loans, net of deferred loan fees	$	1,306,638	$	1,311,906	$	(5,268	)	(0.4	)%

Portfolio loans totaled $1.307 billion at September 30, 2019 , a decrease of $5.3 million , or 0.4% , from $1.312 billion at December 31, 2018 . The decrease in loans can be attributed to decreases of $9.6 million in commercial mortgages, $12.9 million in indirect consumer loans, and $8.4 million in other consumer loans, partially offset by increases of $24.2 million in commercial and agricultural loans, and $1.3 million in residential mortgages. The decline in commercial mortgages, indirect consumer loans, and other consumer loans can be mostly attributed to the portfolio runoff rate exceeding production during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Residential mortgage loans totaled $184.0 million at September 30, 2019 , an increase of $1.3 million , or 0.7% , from December 31, 2018 .

* All loans, excluding those originated by the Capital Bank division.

Loan concentrations are considered to exist when there are amounts loaned to a multiple number of borrowers engaged in similar activities which would cause them to be similarly impacted by economic or other conditions. Specific industries are identified using NAICS codes. The Corporation monitors specific NAICS industry classifications of commercial loans to identify concentrations greater than 10.0% of total loans. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , commercial loans to borrowers involved in the real estate, and real estate rental and lending businesses were 44.5% and 47.2% of total loans, respectively. No other concentration of loans existed in the commercial loan portfolio in excess of 10.0% of total loans as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 .

Non-Performing Assets

Non-performing assets consist of non-accrual loans, non-accrual troubled debt restructurings and other real estate owned that has been acquired in partial or full satisfaction of loan obligations or upon foreclosure.

Past due status on all loans is based on the contractual terms of the loan. It is generally the Corporation's policy that a loan 90 days past due be placed in non-accrual status unless factors exist that would eliminate the need to place a loan in this status. A loan may also be designated as non-accrual at any time if payment of principal or interest in full is not expected due to deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower. At the time loans are placed in non-accrual status, the accrual of interest is discontinued and previously accrued interest is reversed. All payments received on non-accrual loans are applied to principal. Loans are considered for return to accrual status when they become current as to principal and interest and remain current for a period of six consecutive months or when, in the opinion of management, the Corporation expects to receive all of its original principal and interest. In the case of non-accrual loans where a portion of the loan has been charged off, the remaining balance is kept in non-accrual status until the entire principal balance has been recovered.

The following table summarizes the Corporation's non-performing assets, excluding acquired PCI loans (in thousands):



NON-PERFORMING ASSETS
	September 30, 2019			December 31, 2018
Non-accrual loans	$	15,061		$	6,305
Non-accrual troubled debt restructurings	8,407			5,949

Non-Performing Loans

Non-performing loans totaled $23.5 million at September 30, 2019 , or 1.80% of total loans, compared with $12.3 million at December 31, 2018 , or 0.93% of total loans. Non-performing assets, which are comprised of non-performing loans and other real estate owned, was $23.7 million , or 1.32% of total assets, at September 30, 2019 , compared with $12.8 million , or 0.73% of total assets, at December 31, 2018 . The increase in non-performing loans can be mostly attributed to two commercial mortgage relationships and one commercial and agricultural participation loan, offset by paydowns within the commercial portfolio.

Accruing Loans Past due 90 Days or More

The recorded investment in accruing loans past due 90 days or more totaled $53 thousand at September 30, 2019 , an increase of $34 thousand from December 31, 2018 .

Troubled Debt Restructurings

The Corporation works closely with borrowers that have financial difficulties to identify viable solutions that minimize the potential for loss. In that regard, the Corporation modified the terms of select loans to maximize their collectability. The modified loans are considered TDRs under current accounting guidance. Modifications generally involve short-term deferrals of principal and/or interest payments, reductions of scheduled payment amounts, interest rates or principal of the loan, and forgiveness of accrued interest. As of September 30, 2019 , the Corporation had $8.4 million of non-accrual TDRs compared with $6.0 million as of December 31, 2018 . As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Corporation had $0.9 million and $0.8 million respectively, of accruing TDRs.

Impaired Loans

A loan is classified as impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect both the principal and interest due under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans at September 30, 2019 totaled $20.6 million , including TDRs of $9.3 million, compared to $8.7 million , including TDRs of $6.8 million, at December 31, 2018 . The increase in impaired loans was due primarily to the impairment of a commercial mortgage to one borrower for $3.4 million during the first quarter of 2019, a commercial mortgage to one borrower for $5.0 million during the second quarter of 2019, and a commercial and industrial participation credit for $4.2 million during the third quarter of 2019. Included in the recorded investment of impaired loans at September 30, 2019 , were loans totaling $16.3 million for which impairment allowances of $8.7 million have been specifically allocated to the allowance for loan losses. As of December 31, 2018 , the impaired loan total included $3.7 million of loans for which specific impairment allowances of $2.2 million were allocated to the allowance for loan losses. The increase in impaired loans with specific impairment allowances can be mostly attributed to the impairment of a commercial mortgage to one borrower for $3.4 million during the first quarter of 2019, a commercial mortgage to one borrower for $5.0 million during the second quarter of 2019, and a commercial and industrial participation credit for $4.2 million during the third quarter of 2019.

The majority of the Corporation's impaired loans are secured and measured for impairment based on collateral evaluations. It is the Corporation's policy to obtain updated appraisals, by independent third parties, on loans secured by real estate at the time a loan is determined to be impaired. An impairment measurement is performed based upon the most recent appraisal on file to determine the amount of any specific allocation or charge-off. In determining the amount of any specific allocation or charge-off, the Corporation will make adjustments to reflect the estimated costs to sell the property. Upon receipt and review of the updated appraisal, an additional measurement is performed to determine if any adjustments are necessary to reflect the proper provisioning or charge-off. Impaired loans are reviewed on a quarterly basis to determine if any changes in credit quality or market conditions would require any additional allocation or recognition of additional charge-offs. Real estate values in the Corporation's market area have been holding steady. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using (i) an appraisal, (ii) net book value of the collateral per the borrower’s financial statements, or (iii) accounts receivable aging reports, that may be adjusted based on management’s knowledge of the client and client’s business. If market conditions warrant, future appraisals are obtained for both real estate and non-real estate collateral.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb probable incurred losses on existing loans. The allowance is established based on management’s evaluation of the probable incurred losses inherent in our portfolio in accordance with GAAP, and is comprised of both specific valuation allowances and general valuation allowances.

A loan is classified as impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect both the principal and interest due under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Specific valuation allowances are established based on management’s analysis of individually impaired loans. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, evaluations of the underlying collateral, expected cash flows, delinquent or unpaid property taxes, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. If a loan is determined to be impaired and is placed on non-accrual status, all future payments received are applied to principal and a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral.

The general component covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current qualitative factors. Loans not impaired but classified as substandard and special mention use a historical loss factor on a rolling five-year history of net losses. For all other unclassified loans, the historical loss experience is determined by portfolio class and is based on the actual loss history experienced by the Corporation over the most recent two years. This actual loss experience is supplemented with other qualitative factors based on the risks present for each portfolio class. These qualitative factors include consideration of the following: (1) lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards and collection, charge-off and recovery policies, (2) national and local economic and business conditions and developments, including the condition of various market segments, (3) loan profiles and volume of the portfolio, (4) the experience, ability, and depth of lending management and staff, (5) the volume and severity of past due, classified and watch-list loans, non-accrual loans, troubled debt restructurings, and other modifications (6) the quality of the Bank’s loan review system and the degree of oversight by the Bank’s Board of Directors, (7) collateral related issues: secured vs. unsecured, type, declining valuation environment and trend of other related factors, (8) the existence and effect of any concentrations of credit, and changes in the level of such concentrations, (9) the effect of external factors, such as competition and legal and regulatory requirements, on the level of estimated credit losses in the Bank’s current portfolio and (10) the impact of the global economy.

The allowance for loan losses is increased through a provision for loan losses charged to operations. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collectability of all or a portion of the principal is unlikely. Management's evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is performed on a periodic basis and takes into consideration such factors as the credit risk grade assigned to the loan, historical loan loss experience and review of specific impaired loans. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Corporation's allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require the Corporation to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.

The allowance for loan losses was $23.9 million at September 30, 2019 , compared with $18.9 million at December 31, 2018 . The ratio of allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.83% at September 30, 2019 , compared with 1.44% at December 31, 2018 . Net charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were $0.7 million and $4.9 million , respectively. Net charge-offs decreased $4.2 million , compared with the same period in the prior year, mostly due to the charge-off of multiple large commercial loans to one borrower for $3.6 million in 2018.

The table below summarizes the Corporation’s loan loss experience for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands, except ratio data):

Deposits

The table below summarizes the Corporation’s deposit composition by segment at the dates indicated, and the dollar and percent change from December 31, 2018 to September 30, 2019 (in thousands):



DEPOSITS
	September 30, 2019		December 31, 2018		Dollar Change			Percentage Change
Non-interest-bearing demand deposits	$	472,600	$	484,433	$	(11,833	)	(2.4	)%
Interest-bearing demand deposits	208,222		179,603		28,619			15.9	%
Insured money market accounts	510,194		537,948		(27,754		)	(5.2	)%

Total	$	1,576,506	$	1,569,237	$	7,269		0.5	%

Deposits totaled $1.577 billion at September 30, 2019 compared with $1.569 billion at December 31, 2018 , a increase of $7.3 million , or 0.5% . The increase was attributable to increases of $19.6 million in time deposits, due to a rate promotion, and $28.6 million in interest-bearing demand deposit accounts, offset by decreases of $27.8 million in money market accounts and $11.8 million in non-interest-bearing demand deposits. The decrease in money market accounts can be mostly attributed to an outflow of municipal deposits. The decrease in non-interest-bearing demand deposits can be mostly attributed to an outflow of personal deposits. At September 30, 2019 , demand deposit and money market accounts comprised 75.5% of total deposits compared with 76.6% at December 31, 2018 .

The table below presents the Corporation's deposits balance by bank division (in thousands):



DEPOSITS BY DIVISION

*All deposits, excluding those originated by the Capital Bank Division.

In addition to consumer, commercial and public deposits, other sources of funds include brokered deposits. The recently enacted Regulatory Relief Act changed the definition of brokered deposits, such that subject to certain conditions, reciprocal deposits of another depository institution obtained through a deposit placement network for purposes of obtaining maximum deposit insurance would not be considered brokered deposits subject to the FDIC’s brokered-deposit regulations. This will apply to the Corporation's participation in the CDARS and ICS programs. Brokered deposits include funds obtained through brokers. There were no deposits obtained through brokers as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 . Deposits obtained through the CDARS and ICS programs were $186.2 million and $193.6 million as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively. The decrease in CDARS and ICS deposits was due to the seasonal outflow of municipal client balances.

The Corporation’s deposit strategy is to fund the Bank with stable, low-cost deposits, primarily checking account deposits and other low interest-bearing deposit accounts. A checking account is the driver of a banking relationship and consumers consider the bank where they have their checking account as their primary bank. These customers will typically turn to their primary bank first when in need of other financial services. Strategies that have been developed and implemented to generate these deposits include: (i) acquire deposits by entering new markets through branch acquisitions or de novo branching, (ii) an annual checking account marketing campaign, (iii) training branch employees to identify and meet client financial needs with Bank products and services, (iv) link business and consumer loans to the customer's primary checking account at the Bank, (v) aggressively promote direct deposit of client’s payroll checks or benefit checks and (vi) constantly monitor the Corporation’s pricing strategies to ensure competitive products and services.

The Corporation also considers brokered deposits to be an element of its deposit strategy and anticipates that it may use brokered deposits as a secondary source of funding to support growth.

Borrowings

Borrowings decreased $0.2 million from $4.3 million at December 31, 2018 to $4.1 million at September 30, 2019 , attributable to normal recurring finance lease payments.

Shareholders’ Equity

Total shareholders' equity increased $17.0 million from $165.0 million at December 31, 2018 to $182.0 million at September 30, 2019 , due primarily to an increase in retained earnings and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss. The increase in retained earnings of $7.6 million was due primarily to earnings of $11.4 million , offset by $3.8 million in dividends declared during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 . The decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $8.1 million can be mostly attributed to the increase in the fair market value of the securities portfolio. Also, treasury stock decreased $0.6 million , primarily due to the issuance of shares pursuant to the Corporation's employee benefit plans and the directors' stock compensation plans.

The total shareholders’ equity to total assets ratio was 10.15% at September 30, 2019 compared with 9.40% at December 31, 2018 . The tangible equity to tangible assets ratio was 9.00% at September 30, 2019 compared with 8.19% at December 31, 2018 . Book value per share increased to $37.35 at September 30, 2019 from $33.99 at December 31, 2018 .

The Bank is subject to capital adequacy guidelines of the Federal Reserve which establish a framework for the classification of financial institutions into five categories: well-capitalized, adequately capitalized, under-capitalized, significantly under-capitalized and critically under-capitalized. As of September 30, 2019 , the Bank’s capital ratios were in excess of those required to be considered well-capitalized under regulatory capital guidelines.

As a result of the recently enacted Regulatory Relief Act, the FRB amended its small bank holding company and savings and loan holding company policy statement to provide that holding companies with consolidated assets of less than $3 billion that are (i) not engaged in significant non-banking activities, (ii) do not conduct significant off-balance sheet activities, and (iii) do not have a material amount of SEC-registered debt or equity securities, other than trust preferred securities, that contribute to an organization’s complexity, are no longer subject to regulatory capital requirements, effective on August 30, 2018.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

See Note 8 – Commitments and Contingencies in the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of off-balance sheet arrangements.

Liquidity

Liquidity management involves the ability to meet the cash flow requirements of deposit clients, borrowers, and the operating, investing and financing activities of the Corporation. The Corporation uses a variety of resources to meet its liquidity needs. These include short term investments, cash flow from lending and investing activities, core-deposit growth and non-core funding sources, such as time deposits of $100,000 or more, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other borrowings.

The Corporation is a member of the FHLBNY which allows it to access borrowings which enhance management's ability to satisfy future liquidity needs. Based on available collateral and current advances outstanding, the Corporation was eligible to borrow up to a total of $154.2 million and $112.6 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively. The Corporation also had a total of $58.0 million of unsecured lines of credit with five different financial institutions, all of which was available at September 30, 2019 . The Corporation had a total of $28.0 million of unsecured lines of credit with four different financial institutions at December 31, 2018 , all of which was available.

Consolidated Cash Flows Analysis

The table below summarizes the Corporation's cash flows for the periods indicated (in thousands):



CONSOLIDATED SUMMARY OF CASH FLOWS
(in thousands)	Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2019			2018
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	21,808		$	20,105
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities	(9,273		)	27,639
Net provided by financing activities	3,791			35,439
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	16,326		$	83,183

Operating activities

The Corporation believes cash flows from operations, available cash balances and its ability to generate cash through short-term and long-term borrowings are sufficient to fund the Corporation’s operating liquidity needs.

Cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of 2019 and 2018 predominantly resulted from net income after non-cash operating adjustments.

Investing activities

Cash used in investing activities during the first nine months of 2019 was predominantly a result of purchases of securities available for sale, offset by proceeds from sales, maturities, and principal paydowns on securities available for sale. Cash provided by investing activities during the first nine months of 2018 predominantly resulted from sales, calls, maturities, and principal collected in securities available for sale, offset by a net increase in loans.

Financing activities

Cash provided by financing activities during the first nine months of 2019 predominantly resulted from a net increase in deposits. Cash provided by financing activities during the first nine months of 2018 predominantly resulted from a net increase in deposits, offset by the maturity of one $10.0 million repurchase agreement and the repayment of FHLBNY overnight and long term advances.

Capital Resources

The Bank is subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. As a result of the recently enacted Regulatory Relief Act, the FRB amended its small bank holding company and savings and loan holding company policy statement to provide that holding companies with consolidated assets of less than $3 billion that are (i) not engaged in significant non-banking activities, (ii) do not conduct significant off-balance sheet activities, and (iii) do not have a material amount of SEC-registered debt or equity securities, other than trust preferred securities, that contribute to an organization’s complexity, are no longer subject to regulatory capital requirements, effective August 30, 2018. Capital adequacy guidelines and, additionally for banks, prompt corrective action regulations, involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action. The final rules implementing Basel III rules became effective for the Bank on January 1, 2015 with full compliance with all of the requirements being phased in over a multi-year schedule, and fully phased in by January 1, 2019. Under Basel III rules, the Bank must hold a capital conservation buffer above the adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios. The capital conservation buffer for 2019 is 2.50%. Organizations that fail to maintain the minimum capital conservation buffer could face restrictions on capital distributions or discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. The net unrealized gain or loss on available for sale securities and changes in the funded status of the defined benefit pension plan and other benefit plans are not included in computing regulatory capital.

As a result of the Regulatory Relief Act, the federal banking agencies adopted a “Community Bank Leverage Ratio” (the ratio of a bank’s Tier 1 capital to average total consolidated assets) for financial institutions with assets of less than $10 billion. The federal banking agencies have approved a Community Bank Leverage Ratio of 9.0%. A “qualifying community bank” that exceeds this ratio will be deemed to be in compliance with all other capital and leverage requirements, including the capital requirements to be considered “well capitalized” under prompt corrective action statutes. A qualifying financial institution can elect to be subject to this new definition. The rule will take effect on January 1, 2020.

Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and capital restoration plans are required. Management believes that, as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject.

As of September 30, 2019 , the most recent notification from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, common equity Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. There have been no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank's capital category.

The regulatory capital ratios as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were calculated under Basel III rules.

The Corporation and the Bank’s capital ratios as of September 30, 2019 were as follows (in thousands, except ratio data):

Dividend Restrictions

The Corporation’s principal source of funds for dividend payments is dividends received from the Bank. Banking regulations limit the amount of dividends that may be paid without prior approval of regulatory agencies. Under these regulations, the amount of dividends that may be paid in any calendar year is limited to current year’s net income, combined with the retained net income of the preceding two years, subject to the capital requirements in the table above. At September 30, 2019 , the Bank could, without prior approval, declare dividends of approximately $ 25.7 million .

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Please refer to Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Recent Accounting Pronouncements for a discussion of new accounting standards.

Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Risks and Uncertainties

Critical accounting policies include the areas where the Corporation has made what it considers to be particularly difficult, subjective or complex judgments concerning estimates, and where these estimates can significantly affect the Corporation's financial results under different assumptions and conditions. The Corporation prepares its financial statements in conformity with GAAP. As a result, the Corporation is required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that it believes are reasonable based upon the information available at that time. These estimates, judgments and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods presented. Actual results could be different from these estimates.

Management considers the accounting policy relating to the allowance for loan losses to be a critical accounting policy given the uncertainty in evaluating the level of the allowance required to cover probable incurred credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio, and the material effect that such judgments can have on the Corporation's results of operations. While management's current evaluation of the allowance for loan losses indicates that the allowance is adequate, under adversely different conditions or assumptions the allowance would need to be increased. For example, if historical loan loss experience significantly worsened or if current economic conditions significantly deteriorated, additional provisions for loan losses would be required to increase the allowance. In addition, the assumptions and estimates used in the internal reviews of the Corporation's non-performing loans and potential problem loans, and the associated evaluation of the related collateral coverage for these loans, has a significant impact on the overall analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Real estate values in the Corporation’s market area did not increase dramatically in the prior several years, and, as a result, any declines in real estate values have been modest. While management has concluded that the current evaluation of collateral values is reasonable under the circumstances, if collateral evaluations were significantly lowered, the Corporation's allowance for loan losses policy would also require additional provisions for loan losses.

For additional information on critical accounting policies and to gain a greater understanding of how the Corporation's financial performance is reported, refer to Note 1 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of recent accounting updates, and the section captioned "Critical Accounting Policies" in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contained in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Explanation and Reconciliation of the Corporation’s Use of Non-GAAP Measures

The Corporation prepares its Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP; these financial statements appear on pages 7–13. That presentation provides the reader with an understanding of the Corporation’s results that can be tracked consistently from year-to-year and enables a comparison of the Corporation’s performance with other companies’ GAAP financial statements.

In addition to analyzing the Corporation’s results on a reported basis, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, because it believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide information to investors about the underlying operational performance and trends of the Corporation and, therefore, facilitate a comparison of the Corporation with the performance of its competitors. Non-GAAP financial measures used by the Corporation may not be comparable to similarly named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

The SEC has adopted Regulation G, which applies to all public disclosures, including earnings releases, made by registered companies that contain “non-GAAP financial measures.” Under Regulation G, companies making public disclosures containing non-GAAP financial measures must also disclose, along with each non-GAAP financial measure, certain additional information, including a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the closest comparable GAAP financial measure and a statement of the Corporation’s reasons for utilizing the non-GAAP financial measure as part of its financial disclosures. The SEC has exempted from the definition of “non-GAAP financial measures” certain commonly used financial measures that are not based on GAAP. When these exempted measures are included in public disclosures, supplemental information is not required. The following measures used in this Report, which are commonly utilized by financial institutions, have not been specifically exempted by the SEC and may constitute "non-GAAP financial measures" within the meaning of the SEC's new rules, although we are unable to state with certainty that the SEC would so regard them.

Fully Taxable Equivalent Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income is commonly presented on a tax-equivalent basis. That is, to the extent that some component of the institution's net interest income, which is presented on a before-tax basis, is exempt from taxation (e.g., is received by the institution as a result of its holdings of state or municipal obligations), an amount equal to the tax benefit derived from that component is added to the actual before-tax net interest income total. This adjustment is considered helpful in comparing one financial institution's net interest income to that of other institutions or in analyzing any institution’s net interest income trend line over time, to correct any analytical distortion that might otherwise arise from the fact that financial institutions vary widely in the proportions of their portfolios that are invested in tax-exempt securities, and that even a single institution may significantly alter over time the proportion of its own portfolio that is invested in tax-exempt obligations. Moreover, net interest income is itself a component of a second financial measure commonly used by financial institutions, net interest margin, which is the ratio of net interest income to average interest-earning assets. For purposes of this measure as well, fully taxable equivalent net interest income is generally used by financial institutions, as opposed to actual net interest income, again to provide a better basis of comparison from institution to institution and to better demonstrate a single institution’s performance over time. The Corporation follows these practices.

Efficiency Ratio

The unadjusted efficiency ratio is calculated as non-interest expense divided by total revenue (net interest income and non-interest income). The adjusted efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure which represents the Corporation’s ability to turn resources into revenue and is calculated as non-interest expense divided by total revenue (fully taxable equivalent net interest income and non-interest income), adjusted for one-time occurrences and amortization. This measure is meaningful to the Corporation, as well as investors and analysts, in assessing the Corporation’s productivity measured by the amount of revenue generated for each dollar spent.

Tangible Equity and Tangible Assets (Period-End)

Tangible equity, tangible assets, and tangible book value per share are each non-GAAP financial measures. Tangible equity represents the Corporation’s stockholders’ equity, less goodwill and intangible assets. Tangible assets represents the Corporation’s total assets, less goodwill and other intangible assets. Tangible book value per share represents the Corporation’s tangible equity divided by common shares at period-end. These measures are meaningful to the Corporation, as well as investors and analysts, in assessing the Corporation’s use of equity.

Adjustments for Certain Items of Income or Expense

In addition to disclosures of certain GAAP financial measures, including net income, EPS, ROA, and ROE, we may also provide comparative disclosures that adjust these GAAP financial measures for a particular period by removing from the calculation thereof the impact of certain transactions or other material items of income or expense occurring during the period, including certain nonrecurring items. The Corporation believes that the resulting non-GAAP financial measures may improve an understanding of its results of operations by separating out any such transactions or items that may have had a disproportionate positive or negative impact on the Corporation’s financial results during the particular period in question. In the Corporation’s presentation of any such non-GAAP (adjusted) financial measures not specifically discussed in the preceding paragraphs, the Corporation supplies the supplemental financial information and explanations required under Regulation G.

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

Management considers interest rate risk to be the most significant market risk for the Corporation. Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates. Interest rate risk is the exposure to adverse changes in the net income of the Corporation as a result of changes in interest rates.

The Corporation’s primary earnings source is net interest income, which is affected by changes in the level of interest rates, the relationship between rates, the impact of interest rate fluctuations on asset prepayments, the level and composition of deposits and liabilities, and credit quality of earning assets.

The Corporation’s objectives in its asset and liability management are to maintain a strong, stable net interest margin, to utilize its capital effectively without taking undue risks, to maintain adequate liquidity, and to reduce vulnerability of its operations to changes in interest rates. The Corporation's ALCO has the strategic responsibility for setting the policy guidelines on acceptable exposure to interest rate risk. These guidelines contain specific measures and limits regarding the risks, which are monitored on a regular basis. The ALCO is made up of the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, the Asset Liability Management Officer, and other officers representing key functions.

Interest rate risk is the risk that net interest income will fluctuate as a result of a change in interest rates. It is the assumption of interest rate risk, along with credit risk, that drives the net interest margin of a financial institution. For that reason, the ALCO has established tolerance limits based upon a 200-basis point change in interest rates, with appropriate floors set for interest-bearing liabilities. At September 30, 2019 , it is estimated that an immediate 200-basis point decrease in interest rates would negatively impact the next 12 months net interest income by 13.13% and an immediate 200-basis point increase would positively impact the next 12 months net interest income by 9.41%. Both are within the Corporation's policy guideline of 15%. Given the overall low level of current interest rates and the unlikely event of a 200-basis point decline at this time, management additionally modeled an immediate 100-basis point decline and an immediate 300-basis point increase in interest rates. When applied, it is estimated that an immediate 100-basis point decrease in interest rates would negatively impact the next 12 months net interest income by 5.73% and an immediate 300-basis point increase would positively impact the next 12 months net interest income by 14.00%.

A related component of interest rate risk is the expectation that the market value of the Corporation’s equity account will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. This component is a direct corollary to the earnings-impact component: an institution exposed to earnings erosion is also exposed to a decline in market value. At September 30, 2019 , it is estimated that an immediate 200-basis point decrease in interest rates would negatively impact the market value of the Corporation’s capital account by 17.30%, above the Corporation's policy guidelines of 15%. An immediate 200-basis point increase in interest rates would positively impact the market value by 10.97%, which is within the Corporation’s policy guideline of 15%. Management also modeled the impact to the market value of the Corporation’s capital with an immediate 100-basis point decline and an immediate 300-basis point increase in interest rates, based on the current interest rate environment. When applied, it is estimated that an immediate 100-basis point decrease in interest rates would negatively impact the market value of the Corporation’s capital account by 7.39% and an immediate 300-basis point increase in interest rates would positively impact the market value by 15.59%.

Management does recognize the need for certain hedging strategies during periods of anticipated higher fluctuations in interest rates and the Funds Management Policy provides for limited use of certain derivatives in asset liability management.

Credit Risk

The Corporation manages credit risk consistent with state and federal laws governing the making of loans through written policies and procedures; loan review to identify loan problems at the earliest possible time; collection procedures (continued even after a loan is charged off); an adequate allowance for loan losses; and continuing education and training to ensure lending expertise. Diversification by loan product is maintained through offering commercial loans, 1-4 family mortgages, and a full range of consumer loans.

The Corporation monitors its loan portfolio carefully. The Loan Committee of the Corporation's Board of Directors is designated to receive required loan reports, oversee loan policy, and approve loans above authorized individual and Senior Loan Committee lending limits. The Senior Loan Committee, consisting of the President and Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer (non-voting member), Chief Risk Officer (non-voting member), Chief Credit Officer (non-voting member), Business Client Division Manager, Retail Client Division Manager, Retail Loan Manager, Senior Commercial Real Estate Lender, and Commercial Loan Managers, implements the Board-approved loan policy.

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Corporation's management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer, who is the Corporation's principal executive officer, and its Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, who is the Corporation's principal financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2019 pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act, as amended. Based upon that evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of September 30, 2019 . In addition, there have been no changes in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in reports filed by the Corporation under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
