NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include ChoiceOne Financial Services, Inc. (“ChoiceOne”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, ChoiceOne Bank (the “Bank”), and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiary, ChoiceOne Insurance Agencies, Inc. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, prevailing practices within the banking industry and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments ordinary in nature which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Consolidated Statements of Income for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014, the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014, the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders' Equity for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014, and the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in ChoiceOne’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed adequate by management to absorb probable incurred losses inherent in the consolidated loan portfolio. Management’s evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is an estimate based on reviews of individual loans, assessments of the impact of current economic conditions on the portfolio and historical loss experience of seasoned loan portfolios. See Note 3 to the interim consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Management believes the accounting estimate related to the allowance for loan losses is a “critical accounting estimate” because (1) the estimate is highly susceptible to change from period to period because of assumptions concerning the changes in the types and volumes of the portfolios and economic conditions and (2) the impact of recognizing an impairment or loan loss could have a material effect on ChoiceOne’s assets reported on the balance sheets as well as its net income.
Stock Transactions
A total of 512 shares of common stock were issued to ChoiceOne’s Board of Directors for a cash price of $12,000 under the terms of the Directors’ Stock Purchase Plan in the first quarter of 2015. A total of 1,703 shares were issued upon the exercise of stock options in the first quarter of 2015. A total of 15,000 shares of common stock were repurchased in the first three months of 2015. A total of 100 shares were issued upon vesting of Restricted Stock Units in the first quarter of 2015.
Stock-Based Compensation
Effective July 1, 2013, ChoiceOne began granting Restricted Stock Units to a select group of employees under the Stock Incentive Plan of 2012. All of the Restricted Stock Units are initially unvested and vest in three annual installments on each of the next three anniversaries of the grant date. Certain additional vesting provisions apply. Each unit, once vested, is settled by delivery of one share of ChoiceOne common stock.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts presented in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

ChoiceOne reviews its securities portfolio on a quarterly basis to determine whether unrealized losses are considered to be temporary or other-than-temporary. No other-than-temporary impairment charges were recorded in the first quarter of 2015. ChoiceOne believed that unrealized losses on securities were temporary in nature and were due to changes in interest rates and reduced market liquidity and not as a result of credit quality issues.

The process to monitor the credit quality of ChoiceOne’s loan portfolio includes tracking (1) the risk ratings of business loans, (2) the level of classified business loans, and (3) delinquent and nonperforming consumer loans. Business loans are risk rated on a scale of 1 to 8. A description of the characteristics of the ratings follows:
Risk ratings 1 and 2: These loans are considered pass credits. They exhibit good to exceptional credit risk and demonstrate the ability to repay the loan from normal business operations.
Risk rating 3: These loans are considered pass credits. They exhibit acceptable credit risk and demonstrate the ability to repay the loan from normal business operations.
Risk rating 4: These loans are considered pass credits. However, they have potential developing weaknesses that, if not corrected, may cause deterioration in the ability of the borrower to repay the loan. While a loss is possible for a loan with this rating, it is not anticipated.
Risk rating 5: These loans are considered special mention credits. Loans in this risk rating are considered to be inadequately protected by the net worth and debt service coverage of the borrower or of any pledged collateral. These loans have well defined weaknesses that may jeopardize the borrower’s ability to repay the loan. If the weaknesses are not corrected, loss of principal and interest could be probable.
Risk rating 6: These loans are considered substandard credits. These loans have well defined weaknesses, the severity of which makes collection of principal and interest in full questionable. Loans in this category may be placed on nonaccrual status.
Risk rating 7: These loans are considered doubtful credits. Some loss of principal and interest has been determined to be probable. The estimate of the amount of loss could be affected by factors such as the borrower’s ability to provide additional capital or collateral. Loans in this category are on nonaccrual status.
Risk rating 8: These loans are considered loss credits. They are considered uncollectible and will be charged off against the allowance for loan losses.

The pre-modification and post-modification outstanding recorded investment represents amounts as of the date of loan modification. If a difference exists between the pre-modification and post-modification outstanding recorded investment, it represents impairment recognized through the provision for loan losses computed based on a loan’s post-modification present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate. If no difference exists, a loss is not expected to be incurred based on an assessment of the borrower’s expected cash flows.
Loans are classified as performing when they are current as to principal and interest payments or are past due on payments less than 90 days. Loans are classified as nonperforming when they are past due 90 days or more as to principal and interest payments or are considered a troubled debt restructuring.

The estimated fair values approximate the carrying amounts for all assets and liabilities except those described later in this paragraph. The methodology for determining the estimated fair value for securities available for sale is described in Note 6. The estimated fair value for loans is based on the rates charged at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 for new loans with similar maturities, applied until the loan is assumed to reprice or be paid. The allowance for loan losses is considered to be a reasonable estimate of discount for credit quality concerns. The estimated fair values for time deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances are based on the rates paid at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 for new deposits or FHLB advances, applied until maturity. The estimated fair values for other financial instruments and off-balance sheet loan commitments are considered nominal.
| 17 |
The following tables present information about the Bank’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the valuation techniques used by the Bank to determine those fair values.
In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Bank has the ability to access.
Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset or liability.
In instances where inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The Bank’s assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset or liability.
There were no liabilities measured at fair value as of March 31, 2015 or December 31, 2014. Disclosures concerning assets measured at fair value are as follows:

Of the Level 3 assets that were held by the Bank at March 31, 2015, the net unrealized loss for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $59,000, which is recognized in other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheet. $995,000 of Level 3 securities were purchased during the first quarter of 2015. There were no purchases of Level 3 securities in the first quarter of 2014. There were no sales of Level 3 securities during the first quarter of 2015 or 2014.
Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value of positions classified as Level 3 investment securities and liabilities. As a result, the unrealized gains and losses for these assets and liabilities presented in the tables above may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable and unobservable inputs.
Available for sale investment securities categorized as Level 3 assets primarily consist of bonds issued by local municipalities. The Bank estimates the fair value of these bonds based on the present value of expected future cash flows using management’s best estimate of key assumptions, including forecasted interest yield and payment rates, credit quality and a discount rate commensurate with the current market and other risks involved.
The Bank also has assets that under certain conditions are subject to measurement at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets are not normally measured at fair value, but can be subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as impairment. Disclosures concerning assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis are as follows:

Impaired loans categorized as Level 3 assets consist of non-homogeneous loans that are considered impaired. The Bank estimates the fair value of the loans based on the present value of expected future cash flows using management’s estimate of key assumptions. These assumptions include future payment ability, timing of payment streams, and estimated realizable values of available collateral (typically based on outside appraisals). The changes in fair value consisted of charge-downs of impaired loans that were posted to the allowance for loan losses and write-downs of other real estate that were posted to a valuation account.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations .
The following discussion is designed to provide a review of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of ChoiceOne Financial Services, Inc. (“ChoiceOne”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, ChoiceOne Bank (the "Bank"), and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiary, ChoiceOne Insurance Agencies, Inc. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the interim consolidated financial statements and related notes.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This discussion and other sections of this quarterly report contain forward-looking statements that are based on management’s beliefs, assumptions, current expectations, estimates and projections about the financial services industry, the economy, and ChoiceOne itself. Words such as "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "forecasts," "intends," "is likely," "plans," "predicts," "projects," "may," "could," and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Management’s determination of the provision and allowance for loan losses, the carrying value of goodwill and loan servicing rights, the fair value of investment securities (including whether any impairment on any investment security is temporary or other-than-temporary) and management’s assumptions concerning pension and other postretirement benefit plans involve judgments that are inherently forward-looking. All of the information concerning interest rate sensitivity is forward-looking. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions ("risk factors") that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood, and degree of occurrence. Therefore, actual results and outcomes may materially differ from what may be expressed, implied or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. Furthermore, ChoiceOne undertakes no obligation to update, amend, or clarify forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
Risk factors include, but are not limited to, the risk factors discussed in Item 1A of ChoiceOne’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. These are representative of the risk factors that could cause a difference between an ultimate actual outcome and a preceding forward-looking statement.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Summary
Net income for the first quarter of 2015 was $1,642,000, which represented an increase of $394,000 or 32% compared to the same period in 2014. Growth in net interest income and noninterest income were partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of 2014. Basic and diluted earnings per common share were both $0.50 for the first quarter of 2015 compared to $0.38 for both in the same period in 2014. The return on average assets and return on average shareholders’ equity percentages were 1.21% and 9.80%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2015, compared to 0.97% and 8.13%, respectively, for the same period in 2014.
Dividends
Cash dividends of $492,000 or $0.15 per share were declared in the first quarter of 2015, compared to $461,000 or $0.14 per share in the first quarter of 2014. The cash dividend payout percentage was 30% for the first three months of 2015, compared to 37% in the same period a year ago.
Interest Income and Expense
Tables 1 and 2 on the following pages provide information regarding interest income and expense for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. Table 1 documents ChoiceOne’s average balances and interest income and expense, as well as the average rates earned or paid on assets and liabilities.

| (2) | Interest on nontaxable investment securities and loans has been adjusted to a fully tax-equivalent basis using an incremental tax rate of 34% for the periods presented. |
Net Interest Income
The presentation of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis is not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), but is customary in the banking industry. This non-GAAP measure ensures comparability of net interest income arising from both taxable and tax-exempt loans and investment securities. The adjustments to determine net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis were $180,000 and $182,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. These adjustments were computed using a 34% federal income tax rate.
As shown in Tables 1 and 2, tax-equivalent net interest income increased $136,000 in the first three months of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. The effect of growth in average interest-earning assets was partially offset by an increase in average interest-bearing liabilities, which caused net interest income to increase $951,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same quarter in the prior year. A reduction of 9 basis points in the net interest spread from 3.82% in the first quarter of 2014 to 3.73% in the same quarter in 2015, resulted in an $816,000 decrease in net interest income.
The average balance of loans increased $21.9 million in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. Average commercial and industrial and commercial real estate loans were $19.6 million higher, while average consumer and residential mortgage loans grew $0.5 million and $1.8 million, respectively, in the same time period. The increase in the average loans balance was offset by an 18 basis point decrease in the average rate earned. This caused tax-equivalent interest income from loans to increase $116,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in the prior year. The average balance of total securities grew $4.4 million in the first three months of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. Additional securities were purchased in 2014 and in the first quarter of 2015 to provide added liquidity and to provide earning asset growth. The growth in securities, which was more than offset by the effect of lower interest rates earned, caused interest income to decrease $28,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same quarter in 2014.
| 22 |
The average balance of interest-bearing demand deposits increased $11.2 million in the first three months of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. The effect of the higher average balance was offset by a 5 basis point decline in the average rate paid, which caused interest expense to decrease $15,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same quarter in 2014. The average balance of savings deposits increased $1.9 million in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same quarter in the prior year. The impact of the savings deposit growth was offset by a 1 basis point drop in the average rate paid, resulting in a decrease in interest expense of $2,000 in the first three months of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. The average balance of certificates of deposit was down $10.1 million in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. The decline in certificates of deposit plus a 7 basis point reduction in the average rate paid on certificates caused interest expense to fall $37,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. The effect of $10.6 million of growth in the average balance of Federal Home Loan Bank advances was partially offset by a 15 basis point decrease in the average rate paid causing interest expense to increase $8,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same quarter in 2014.
ChoiceOne’s net interest income spread was 3.73% in the first quarter of 2015, compared to 3.82% for the first quarter of 2014. The decline in the interest spread was due to a 16 basis point decrease in the average rate earned on interest earning assets in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same quarter in 2014, which was partially offset by a 7 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The reduction in the average rate earned on interest-earning assets was caused by relatively low general market rates on new loan originations and securities purchased in 2014 and the first quarter of 2015. Interest rates on loans are also being impacted by rate pressure from some of ChoiceOne’s competing financial institutions. The lower rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities resulted from repricing of local deposits as general market interest rates remained low during 2014 and the first quarter of 2015.
Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses
Total loans declined $7.8 million since the end of 2014, while the allowance for loan losses increased $148,000 during the same period. The provision for loan losses was $100,000 in both the first quarter of 2015 and the first quarter of 2014. Nonperforming loans were $5.9 million as of March 31, 2015, compared to $6.6 million as of December 31, 2014. The decrease in nonperforming loans in the first quarter of 2015 was comprised primarily of a reduction of $1.2 million in nonaccrual loans, which was partially offset by an increase in loans considered troubled debt restructurings of $0.6 million. The allowance for loan losses was 1.28% of total loans at March 31, 2015, compared to 1.21% at December 31, 2013 and 1.43% at March 31, 2014.
Charge-offs and recoveries for respective loan categories for the three months ended March 31 were as follows:

Net recoveries were $49,000 in the first quarter of 2015, compared to net charge-offs of $240,000 in the first quarter of 2014. Net charge-offs on an annualized basis as a percentage of average loans were a negative 0.06% in the first three months of 2015 compared to 0.30% for the same period in the prior year. Management is aware that the economic climate in Michigan will continue to affect business and individual borrowers. Management has worked and intends to continue to work with delinquent borrowers in an attempt to lessen the negative impact to ChoiceOne. As charge-offs, changes in the level of nonperforming loans, and changes within the composition of the loan portfolio occur throughout 2015, the provision and allowance for loan losses will be reviewed by the Bank's management and adjusted as determined to be necessary.
| 23 |
Noninterest Income
Total noninterest income increased $808,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. An increase in customer service charges of $124,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in the prior year was due to service charges from ChoiceOne’s new checking accounts and income from additional debit card activity. Insurance and investment commissions increased $110,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 due to a higher level of investment sale and increased advisory fee income. Gains on loan sales grew $357,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 as low interest rates for long-term fixed-rate residential mortgages has stimulated a higher level of activity. A decrease of $57,000 in the first quarter of 2015 in gains on sales of securities when compared to the same period in 2014 resulted from lower sales activity in the current year. A larger loss on sales of other assets in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 resulted from a write down of an other real estate owned property in the current year. A death benefit of $308,000 received on a bank owned life insurance policy in the first quarter of 2015 provided most of the increase in earnings on life insurance policies. The decrease in other noninterest income in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter in the prior year was caused by a $34,000 loss from ChoiceOne’s investment in its data processing center. The data processing center experienced additional expenses related to ChoiceOne’s core data processing conversion that is scheduled for October 2015.
Noninterest Expense
Total noninterest expense increased $504,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. The increase of $215,000 in salaries and benefits in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 resulted from higher commission expense related to mortgage and investment sales, salaries, bonus accruals, and health insurance costs. Approximately $60,000 of the increase in data processing expenses in 2015 compared to 2014 was related to ChoiceOne’s core data processing conversion scheduled for October 2015 with most of the remainder caused by higher costs for electronic banking services. Professional fees increased $80,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 as a result of more use of outside consultants. Approximately $41,000 of the growth in other noninterest expense in 2015 compared to 2014 was caused by higher donation expenses.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $482,000 in the first quarter of 2015 compared to $435,000 for the same period in 2014. The effective tax rate was 22.7% for 2015 and 25.9% for 2014. The decrease in the effective tax rate in 2015 compared to 2014 was due to the effect of the $308,000 death benefit received in the first quarter of 2015 from a bank owned life insurance policy.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Securities
The securities available for sale portfolio increased $8.1 million from December 31, 2014 to March 31, 2015. The increase in the securities portfolio resulted from ChoiceOne’s desire to grow earning assets and to offset part of the decline in total loans in the first quarter of 2015. Various securities totaling $9.4 million were purchased in the first three months of 2015 to provide earning assets and to replace maturities, principal repayments, and calls within the securities portfolio. Approximately $0.7 million in various securities were called or matured during the first quarter of 2015. Principal repayments on securities totaled $0.5 million in the first three months of 2015. Approximately $1.1 million of securities were sold in the first three months of 2015 for a net gain of $8,000.
Loans
The loan portfolio (excluding loans held for sale) declined $7.8 million from December 31, 2014 to March 31, 2015. Reductions of $5.6 million, $2.6 million, and $1.0 million in agricultural loans, residential mortgage loans, and consumer loans were offset partially by increases of less than $1.0 million each in commercial and industrial loans, commercial real estate loans, and construction real estate loans. The decrease in agricultural loans was caused in part by seasonal pay downs by borrowers. The decline in residential mortgage loans was due to the sale of the majority of loan volume into the secondary market.
Asset Quality
Information regarding impaired loans can be found in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements included in this report. The total balance of loans classified as impaired was $6.0 million at March 31, 2015, compared to $6.9 million as of December 31, 2014. The balance of commercial real estate loans and residential real estate loans classified as impaired declined $822,000 and $273,000, respectively, in the first quarter 2015 while impaired agricultural loans grew $210,000 since the end of 2014.
As part of its review of the loan portfolio, management also monitors the various nonperforming loans. Nonperforming loans are comprised of: (1) loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis; (2) loans, not included in nonaccrual loans, which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest or principal payments; and (3) loans, not included in nonaccrual or loans past due 90 days or more, which are considered troubled debt restructurings.

The balances of these nonperforming loans were as follows:
| (Dollars in thousands) | March 31, | December 31, | ||||||
| 2015 | 2014 | |||||||
| Loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis | $ | 2,163 | $ | 3,361 | ||||

| Loans considered troubled debt restructurings | 3,757 | 3,175 | ||||||
| Total | $ | 5,920 | $ | 6,594 | ||||
At March 31, 2015, nonaccrual loans included $1,238,000 in commercial estate loans, $710,000 in residential real estate loans, $210,000 in agricultural loans, and $5,000 in commercial and industrial loans. At December 31, 2014, nonaccrual loans included $2,652,000 in commercial real estate loans, $671,000 in residential real estate loans, and $38,000 in commercial and industrial loans. The decrease in nonaccrual loans was primarily due to credits placed back on an accrual status once they became performing loans. The increase in loans considered troubled debt restructurings was caused by three loans moved into this category in the first quarter of 2015. Management believes the allowance allocated to its nonperforming loans is sufficient at March 31, 2015.
Deposits and Borrowings
Total deposits decreased $5.7 million in the first quarter of 2015. Checking and savings deposits increased $3.5 million, while certificates of deposit decreased $9.2 million in the first three months of 2015.
A decrease of $5.6 million in repurchase agreements in the first three months of 2015 was due to normal fluctuations in funds provided by bank customers. Certain securities are sold under agreements to repurchase them the following day. Management plans to continue this practice as a low-cost source of funding. Federal Home Loan Bank advances grew $2.5 million in the first quarter of 2015 as advances were used to replace some of the decline in deposits.
Shareholders' Equity
Total shareholders' equity increased $1,601,000 from December 31, 2014 to March 31, 2015. Growth in equity resulted from current year’s net income, increases in accumulated other comprehensive income and proceeds from the issuance of ChoiceOne stock, which was partially offset by cash dividends paid and a repurchase of stock. The $748,000 increase in accumulated other comprehensive income since the end of 2014 was caused by an increase in net unrealized gains on available for sale securities. The change in unrealized gains resulted from decreases in certain interest rate terms in the first quarter of 2015, which increased the market value of the Bank’s securities.

Management reviews the capital levels of ChoiceOne and the Bank on a regular basis. The Board of Directors (the “Board”) and management believe that the capital levels as of March 31, 2015 are adequate for the foreseeable future. The Board’s determination of appropriate cash dividends for future periods will be based on, among other things, market conditions and ChoiceOne’s requirements for cash and capital.
Liquidity
Net cash provided from operating activities was $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to $2.1 million provided in the same period a year ago. Various small fluctuations caused the slight increase. Net cash from investing activities was $0.4 million for the first three months of 2015 compared to net cash used of $12.3 million in the same period in 2014. The change was due to a higher level of cash provided by a decrease in loan balances in the first quarter of 2015 in contrast with an increase in the same quarter in 2014. Net cash used in financing activities was $9.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to net cash from financing activities of $4.1 million in the same period in the prior year. The effect of a decline in deposits in the first quarter of 2015 compared to growth in the same quarter in 2014 was partially offset by a higher level of net proceeds from Federal Home Loan Bank advances.
Management believes that the current level of liquidity is sufficient to meet the Bank's normal operating needs. This belief is based upon the availability of deposits from both the local and national markets, maturities of securities, normal loan repayments, income retention, federal funds purchased from correspondent banks, and advances available from the Federal Home Loan Bank. The Bank also has a secured line of credit available from the Federal Reserve Bank.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures .
An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of ChoiceOne’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of ChoiceOne’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on and as of the time of that evaluation, ChoiceOne’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, concluded that ChoiceOne’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in the reports that ChoiceOne files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that ChoiceOne files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including ChoiceOne’s principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There was no change in ChoiceOne’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2015 that has materially affected, or that is reasonably likely to materially affect, ChoiceOne’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART
II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings .
There are no material pending legal proceedings to which ChoiceOne or the Bank is a party or to which any of their properties are subject, except for proceedings that arose in the ordinary course of business. In the belief of management, pending or current legal proceedings should not have a material effect on the consolidated financial condition of ChoiceOne.
Item 1A. Risk Factors .
Information concerning risk factors is contained in the discussion in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in ChoiceOne’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. As of the date of this report, ChoiceOne does not believe that there has been a material change in the nature or categories of ChoiceOne's risk factors, as compared to the information disclosed in ChoiceOne’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
