NOTE 4 - Securities (continued)

Securities are written down to fair value when a decline in fair value is not considered temporary. In estimating other-than-temporary losses, management considers many factors, including: (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) whether the market decline was affected by macroeconomic conditions, and (4) whether the Company has the intent to sell the debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell the debt security before its anticipated recovery. The Company does not intend to sell or expect to be required to sell these securities, and the decline in fair value is largely due to changes in market interest rates. Therefore, the Company does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired. All mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations (MBS/CMO - Residential) in the Company’s portfolio are guaranteed by government sponsored entities, are investment grade, and are performing as expected.

The Company's equity securities consist of one non-controlling investment in a single banking organization at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The original investment totaled $1,350 and other-than-temporary impairment was previously recorded totaling $997 . When a decline in fair value below cost is deemed to be other-than-temporary, the unrealized loss must be recognized as a charge to earnings.

NOTE 5 – Derivatives

The Company executes interest rate swaps with commercial banking customers to facilitate their respective risk management strategies. The notional amounts of these interest rate swaps and the offsetting counterparty derivative instruments were $84.5 million at June 30, 2017 and $67.9 million at December 31, 2016. These interest rate swaps are simultaneously hedged by offsetting interest rate swaps that the Company executes with a third party, such that the Company minimizes its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions with approved, reputable, independent counterparties with substantially matching terms. The agreements are considered stand alone derivatives and changes in the fair value of derivatives are reported in earnings as non-interest income.

Credit risk arises from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. The Company’s exposure is limited to the replacement value of the contracts rather than the notional, principal or contract amounts. There are provisions in the agreements with the counterparties that allow for certain unsecured credit exposure up to an agreed threshold. Exposures in excess of the agreed thresholds are collateralized. In addition, the Company minimizes credit risk through credit approvals, limits, and monitoring procedures.

The following table reflects the fair value hedges included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of:



	June 30, 2017				December 31, 2016
	Notional Amount		Fair Value		Notional Amount		Fair Value
Included in Other Assets:

In determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan loss, general allocations are made for pools of loans, including non-classified loans, homogeneous portfolios of consumer and residential real estate loans, and loans within certain industry categories believed to present unique risk of loss. General allocations of the allowance are primarily made based on historical averages for loan losses for these portfolios, judgmentally adjusted for current economic factors and portfolio trends.

Loan impairment is reported when full repayment under the terms of the loan is not expected. This methodology is used for all loans, including loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality if such loans perform worse than what was expected at the time of acquisition. For purchased loans, the assessment is made at the time of acquisition as well as over the life of loan. If a loan is impaired, 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. Commercial and industrial loans, commercial real estate loans, and agricultural loans are evaluated individually for impairment. Smaller balance homogeneous loans are evaluated for impairment in total. Such loans include real estate loans secured by one-to-four family residences and loans to individuals for household, family and other personal expenditures. Individually evaluated loans on non-accrual are generally considered impaired. Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectible.

Specific allocations on impaired loans are determined by comparing the loan balance to the present value of expected cash flows or expected collateral proceeds. Allocations are also applied to categories of loans not considered individually impaired but for which the rate of loss is expected to be greater than historical averages, including non-performing consumer or residential real estate loans. Such allocations are based on past loss experience and information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values.

All classes of loans, including loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality, are generally placed on non-accrual status when scheduled principal or interest payments are past due for 90 days or more or when the borrower’s ability to repay becomes doubtful. For purchased loans, the determination is made at the time of acquisition as well as over the life of the loan. Uncollected accrued interest for each class of loans is reversed against income at the time a loan is placed on non-accrual. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. All classes of loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments

Troubled Debt Restructurings:

In certain instances, the Company may choose to restructure the contractual terms of loans. A troubled debt restructuring occurs when the Bank grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider due to a borrower’s financial difficulty. In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed of the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of its debt in the foreseeable future without modification. This evaluation is performed under the Company’s internal underwriting policy. The Company uses the same methodology for loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality as for all other loans when determining whether the loan is a troubled debt restructuring.

During the three months ended June 30, 2017 there was one loan modified as a troubled debt restructuring. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, there were two loans modified as troubled debt restructurings. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, there were no loans modified as troubled debt restructurings.

The following tables present the recorded investment of troubled debt restructurings by class of loans as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016:



June 30, 2017	Total		Performing		Non-Accrual ⁽¹⁾

⁽¹⁾ The non-accrual troubled debt restructurings are included in the Non-Accrual Loan table presented on a previous page.

The Company had not committed to lending any additional amounts as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 to customers with outstanding loans that are classified as troubled debt restructurings. The total allowance associated with the loans modified as troubled debt restructurings as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $16 and $3 , respectively.

The following tables present loans by class modified as troubled debt restructurings that occurred during the three months ending June 30, 2017 and 2016:

Additionally, there were no loans modified as troubled debt restructurings for which there was a payment default within twelve months following the modification during the three and six months ending June 30, 2017 and 2016.

A loan is considered to be in payment default once it is 30 days contractually past due under the modified terms.

Credit Quality Indicators:

The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company classifies loans as to credit risk by individually analyzing loans. This analysis includes commercial and industrial loans, commercial real estate loans, and agricultural loans with an outstanding balance greater than $250. This analysis is typically performed on at least an annual basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

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 of the institution’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity 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.

NOTE 7 – Repurchase Agreements Accounted for as Secured Borrowings

Repurchase agreements are short-term borrowings included in FHLB Advances and Other Borrowings and mature overnight and continuously. Repurchase agreements, which were secured by mortgage-backed securities, totaled $ 43,026 and $42,412 as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Risk could arise when the collateral pledged to a repurchase agreement declines in fair value. The Company minimizes risk by consistently monitoring the value of the collateral pledged. At the point in time where the collateral has declined in fair value, the Company is required to provide additional collateral based on the value of the underlying securities.

NOTE 8 – Segment Information

The Company’s operations include three primary segments: core banking, trust and investment advisory services, and insurance operations. The core banking segment involves attracting deposits from the general public and using such funds to originate consumer, commercial and agricultural, commercial and agricultural real estate, and residential mortgage loans, primarily in the Company’s local markets. The core banking segment also involves the sale of residential mortgage loans in the secondary market. The trust and investment advisory services segment involves providing trust, investment advisory, and brokerage services to customers. The insurance segment offers a full range of personal and corporate property and casualty insurance products, primarily in the Company’s banking subsidiary’s local markets.

The core banking segment is comprised by the Company’s banking subsidiary, German American Bancorp, which operated through 52 banking offices at June 30, 2017. Net interest income from loans and investments funded by deposits and borrowings is the primary revenue for the core-banking segment. The trust and investment advisory services segment’s revenues are comprised primarily of fees generated by the trust operations of the Company's banking subsidiary and by German American Investment Services, Inc. These fees are derived by providing trust, investment advisory, and brokerage services to its customers. The insurance segment primarily consists of German American Insurance, Inc., which provides a full line of personal and corporate insurance products. Commissions derived from the sale of insurance products are the primary source of revenue for the insurance segment.

The following segment financial information has been derived from the internal financial statements of the Company which are used by management to monitor and manage financial performance. The accounting policies of the three segments are the same as those of the Company. The evaluation process for segments does not include holding company income and expense. Holding company amounts are the primary differences between segment amounts and consolidated totals, and are reflected in the column labeled “Other” below, along with amounts to eliminate transactions between segments.

NOTE 9 – Stock Repurchase Plan

On April 26, 2001, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program for up to 911,631 of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. Shares may be purchased from time to time in the open market and in large block privately negotiated transactions. The Company is not obligated to purchase any shares under the program, and the program may be discontinued at any time before the maximum number of shares specified by the program are purchased. The Board of Directors established no expiration date for this program. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had purchased 502,447 shares under the program. No shares were purchased under the program during the three or six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

NOTE 10 – Equity Plans and Equity Based Compensation

The Company maintains three equity incentive plans under which stock options, restricted stock, and other equity incentive awards can be granted. At June 30, 2017, the Company has reserved 412,104 shares of common stock for the purpose of issuance pursuant to outstanding and future grants of options, restricted stock, and other equity awards to officers, directors and other employees of the Company.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company granted no options. The Company recorded no stock compensation expense applicable to options during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 because all outstanding options were fully vested prior to 2007. In addition, there was no unrecognized option expense.

During the periods presented, awards of long-term incentives were granted in the form of restricted stock. Awards that were granted to management under a management incentive plan were granted in tandem with cash credit entitlements (typically in the form of 60% restricted stock grants and 40% cash credit entitlements). The management and employee restricted stock grants and tandem cash credit entitlements awarded will vest in three equal installments of 33.3% with the first annual vesting on December 5th of the year of the grant and on December 5th of the next two succeeding years. Awards that were granted to directors as additional retainer for their services do not include any cash credit entitlement. These director restricted stock grants are subject to forfeiture in the event that the recipient of the grant does not continue in service as a director of the Company through December 5th of the year after grant or does not satisfy certain meeting attendance requirements, at which time they generally vest 100 percent . For measuring compensation costs, restricted stock awards are valued based upon the market value of the common shares on the date of grant. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company granted awards of 210 shares of restricted stock. The Company granted no shares of restricted stock during the three months ended June 30, 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company granted awards of 38,100 and 48,375 shares of restricted stock, respectively. Total unvested restricted stock awards at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were 91,263 and 53,163 , respectively.

Unrecognized expense associated with the restricted stock grants and cash entitlements totaled $2,739 and $2,411 as of June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

The Company maintains an Employee Stock Purchase Plan whereby eligible employees have the option to purchase the Company’s common stock at a discount. The purchase price of the shares under this Plan has been set at 95% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock as of the last day of the plan year. The plan provided for the purchase of up to 750,000 shares of common stock, which the Company may obtain by purchases on the open market or from private sources, or by issuing authorized but unissued common shares. At June 30, 2017, there were 577,426 shares available for future issuance under this plan. Funding for the purchase of common stock is from employee and Company contributions.

There was no expense recorded for the employee stock purchase plan during the three or six months ended June 30, 2017. There was no expense recorded for the employee stock purchase plan during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. There was no unrecognized compensation expense as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 for the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

NOTE 11 – Fair Value

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

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

Investment Securities: The fair values for investment securities are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar securities (Level 2). 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). Level 3 pricing is obtained from a third-party based upon similar trades that are not traded frequently without adjustment by the Company. At June 30, 2017, the Company held $6.8 million in Level 3 securities which consist of $6.5 million of non-rated Obligations of State and Political Subdivisions and $353 thousand of equity securities that are not actively traded. Absent the credit rating, significant assumptions must be made such that the credit risk input becomes an unobservable input and thus these securities are reported by the Company in a Level 3 classification.

Derivatives: The fair values of derivatives are based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2).

Impaired Loans: Fair values for impaired collateral dependent loans are generally based on appraisals obtained from licensed real estate appraisers and in certain circumstances includes consideration of offers obtained to purchase properties prior to foreclosure. Appraisals for commercial real estate generally use three methods to derive value: cost, sales or market comparison and income approach. The cost method bases value in the cost to replace the current property. Value of market comparison approach evaluates the sales price of similar properties in the same market area. The income approach considers net operating income generated by the property and an investor's required return. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Comparable sales adjustments are based on known sales prices of similar type and similar use properties and duration of time that the property has been on the market to sell. Such adjustments made in the appraisal process are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Appraisals for both collateral-dependent impaired loans and other real estate owned are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Company. Once received, a member of the Company’s Risk Management Area reviews the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal. In determining the value of impaired collateral dependent loans and other real estate owned, significant unobservable inputs may be used which include: physical condition of comparable properties sold, net operating income generated by the property and investor rates of return.

Other Real Estate: Nonrecurring adjustments to certain commercial and residential real estate properties classified as other real estate (ORE) are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell. Fair values are generally based on third party appraisals of the property utilizing similar techniques as discussed above for Impaired Loans, resulting in a Level 3 classification. In cases where the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, less costs to sell, impairment loss is recognized.

Loan Servicing Rights: On a quarterly basis, loan servicing rights are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to carrying amount resulting in a Level 2 classification. The valuation model utilizes interest rate, prepayment speed, and default rate assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income and that can be validated against available market data.

Loans Held-for-Sale: The fair values of loans held for sale are determined by using quoted prices for similar assets, adjusted for specific attributes of that loan resulting in a Level 2 classification.

FHLB Stock and Other Restricted Stock:

It is not practical to determine the fair values of FHLB stock and other restricted stock due to restrictions placed on their transferability.

Loans:

Fair values of loans, excluding loans held for sale and collateral dependent impaired loans carried at fair value, are estimated as follows: For variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values resulting in a Level 3 classification. Fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality resulting in a Level 3 classification. Impaired loans are valued as described previously. The methods utilized to estimate fair value of loans do not necessarily represent an exit price.

Accrued Interest Receivable:

The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates fair value resulting in a Level 2 or Level 3 classification consistent with the asset they are associated with.

NOTE 13 - Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") amended existing guidance (ASU 2014-09 Revenue From Contracts With Customers) related to revenue from contracts with customers. This amendment supersedes and replaces nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance, establishes a new control-based revenue recognition model, changes the basis for deciding when revenue is recognized over time or at a point in time, provides new and more detailed guidance on specific topics and expands and improves disclosures about revenue. In addition, this amendment specifies the accounting for some costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with a customer. These amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company does not expect this pronouncement to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial condition as the Company's core revenue does not fall under this guidance.

In January 2016, the FASB amended existing guidance (ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities) that requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Also, it requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. It requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (i.e., securities or loans and receivables). It eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. These amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company notes that the impact of adoption is to carry the equity security at fair value through the income statement or at cost, less impairment when fair value is not readily determinable, with observable price changes being recognized in earnings. The Company doesn't expect the impact to be material. For additional information on this equity security, see Note 4 - Securities.

In February 2016, the FASB amended existing guidance (ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)) that requires lessees recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date (1) A lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (2) A right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Under the new

NOTE 13 - Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. Certain targeted improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. These amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period. Based on our leases outstanding as of June 30, 2017, the Company does not expect this new guidance to have a material impact on the consolidated results of operation. However as a result of this new guidance, the Company anticipates an estimated increase in its Consolidated Balance Sheet of approximately $6,000 . This impact will vary based on the Company's future decisions to enter into new lease agreements or exit/renew current lease agreements prior to the date of implementation.

In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance (ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)) to replace the incurred loss model with an expected loss model, which is referred to as the current expected credit loss (CECL) model. The CECL model is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, and reinsurance receivables. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in leases recognized by a lessor. These amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company anticipates there may be an increase in its allowance for loan losses at the time of adoption of this standard, but can not estimate the amount at this time.

In August 2016, the FASB issued this ASU (ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 320): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments) to address the diversity in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows including the following:


•	Debt Prepayment or Debt Extinguishment Costs;


•	Settlement of Zero-Coupon Bonds or Debt with Coupon Interest Rates That Are Insignificant in Relation to the Effective Interest Rate;


•	Contingent Consideration payments Made Soon After a Business Combination;


•	Proceeds From the Settlement of Insurance Claims;

These amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. This guidance currently has no material impact on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows; however, the Company will continue to monitor it going forward.

In March 2017, the FASB issued this ASU (ASU No. 2017-08, Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities) to align the accounting with the economics of a callable debt security and to align the amortization period with expectations that already are included in market pricing on the callable debt securities. This ASU will shorten the amortization period for premiums on purchased callable debt securities by requiring that premiums be amortized to the first (or earliest) call date instead of as an adjustment to the yield over the contractual life. This guidance is effective for for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim period within that reporting period. As a result of the Company's analysis, the Company doesn't expect this pronouncement to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

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

GERMAN AMERICAN BANCORP, INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

German American Bancorp, Inc., is a NASDAQ-traded (symbol: GABC) financial services holding company based in Jasper, Indiana. German American Bancorp, Inc., through its banking subsidiary German American Bancorp, operates 52 banking offices in 19 contiguous southern Indiana counties and one northern Kentucky county. The Company also owns an investment brokerage subsidiary (German American Investment Services, Inc.) and a full line property and casualty insurance agency (German American Insurance, Inc.).

Throughout this Management’s Discussion and Analysis, as elsewhere in this Report, when we use the term “Company,” we will usually be referring to the business and affairs (financial and otherwise) of German American Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates as a whole. Occasionally, we will refer to the term “parent company” or “holding company” when we mean to refer to only German American Bancorp, Inc.

This section presents an analysis of the consolidated financial condition of the Company as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and the consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and other financial data presented elsewhere herein and with the financial statements and other financial data, as well as the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW

This updated discussion should be read in conjunction with the Management Overview that was included in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

On March 1, 2016, the Company completed its acquisition of River Valley Bancorp ("River Valley") and its subsidiaries, including River Valley Financial Bank. This acquisition was consistent with the Company's strategy to build a regional presence in Southern Indiana. The acquisition offers the Company the opportunity to increase profitability by introducing existing products and services to the acquired customer base as well as add new customers in the expanded region.

Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 totaled $9,839,000, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared to net income of $9,788,000, or $0.43 per diluted share for the quarter ended June 30, 2016. For the first half 2017, earnings improved $4,461,000, or 30%, to $19,395,000 as compared to $14,934,000 for the first six months of 2016. On a per share basis, net income totaled $0.85 per diluted share during the first six months of 2017 representing a 25% increase from the $0.68 per diluted share for the first half of 2016. The first half of 2016 included four months of operations of River Valley and was impacted by merger related charges associated with the closing of the River Valley transaction effective March 1, 2016. The merger related charges totaled approximately $4,129,000, or $2,612,000 on an after-tax basis, which represented approximately $0.12 per share during the first half of 2016.

On March 27, 2017, the Company declared a 3-for-2 stock split on the Company’s authorized and outstanding common shares. The stock split was distributed on April 21, 2017 to shareholders of record as of April 6, 2017. All share and per share data in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relating to a date or period that precedes April 21, 2017 have been adjusted and are reflective of the stock split.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The financial condition and results of operations for the Company presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements, accompanying Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, and selected financial data appearing elsewhere within this Report, are, to a large degree, dependent upon the Company’s accounting policies. The selection of and application of these policies involve estimates, judgments, and uncertainties that are subject to change. The critical accounting policies and estimates that the Company has determined to be the most susceptible to change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of securities available for sale, income tax expense, and the valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses to cover probable incurred credit losses at the balance sheet date. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged-off. A provision for loan losses is charged to operations based on management’s periodic evaluation of the necessary allowance balance. Evaluations are conducted at least quarterly and more often if deemed necessary. The ultimate recovery of all loans is susceptible to future market factors beyond the Company’s control.

The Company has an established process to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The determination of the allowance is inherently subjective, as it requires significant estimates, including the amounts and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, estimated losses on other classified loans and pools of homogeneous loans, and consideration of past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The allowance consists of two components of allocations, specific and general. These two components represent the total allowance for loan losses deemed adequate to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

Commercial and agricultural loans are subject to a standardized grading process administered by an internal loan review function. The need for specific reserves is considered for credits identified as impaired when: (a) the customer’s cash flow or net worth appears insufficient to repay the loan; (b) the loan has been criticized in a regulatory examination; (c) the loan is on non-accrual; or (d) other reasons where the ultimate collectability of the loan is in question, or the loan characteristics require special monitoring. Specific allowances are established in cases where management has identified significant conditions or circumstances related to an individual credit that we believe indicates the loan is impaired.

General allocations are made for commercial and agricultural loans that are graded as substandard based on migration analysis techniques to determine historical average losses for similar types of loans. General allocations are also made for other pools of loans, including non-classified loans, homogeneous portfolios of consumer and residential real estate loans, and loans within certain industry categories believed to present unique risk of loss. General allocations of the allowance are primarily made based on historical averages for loan losses for these portfolios, judgmentally adjusted for economic, external and internal factors and portfolio trends. Economic factors include evaluating changes in international, national, regional and local economic and business conditions that affect the collectability of the loan portfolio. Internal factors include evaluating changes in lending policies and procedures; changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio; and changes in experience, ability and depth of lending management and staff. In setting our external and internal factors we also consider the overall level of the allowance for loan losses to total loans; our allowance coverage as compared to similar size bank holding companies; and regulatory requirements.

Due to the imprecise nature of estimating the allowance for loan losses, the Company’s allowance for loan losses includes a minor unallocated component. The unallocated component of the allowance for loan losses incorporates the Company’s judgmental determination of inherent losses that may not be fully reflected in other allocations, including factors such as economic uncertainties, lending staff quality, industry trends impacting specific portfolio segments, and broad portfolio quality trends. Therefore, the ratio of allocated to unallocated components within the total allowance may fluctuate from period to period.

Securities Valuation

Securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported separately in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax. The Company obtains market values from a third party on a monthly basis in order to adjust the securities to fair value. Equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values are carried at cost. Additionally, when securities are deemed to be other than temporarily impaired, a charge will be recorded through earnings; therefore, future changes in the fair value of securities could have a significant impact on the Company’s operating results. In determining whether a market value decline is other than temporary, management considers the reason for the decline, the extent of the decline, the duration of the decline and whether the Company intends to sell or believes it will be required to sell the securities prior to recovery. As of June 30, 2017, gross unrealized gains on the securities available-for-sale portfolio totaled approximately $11,433,000 and gross unrealized losses totaled approximately $4,890,000.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense involves estimates related to the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets and loss contingencies related to exposure from tax examinations presumed to occur.

A valuation allowance reduces deferred tax assets to the amount management believes is more likely than not to be realized. In evaluating the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers the likelihood that sufficient taxable income of appropriate character will be generated within carry-back and carry-forward periods, including consideration of available tax planning strategies. Tax-related loss contingencies, including assessments arising from tax examinations and tax strategies, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. In considering the likelihood of loss, management considers the nature of the contingency, the progress of any examination or related protest or appeal, the views of legal counsel and other advisors, experience of the Company or other enterprises in similar matters, if any, and management’s intended response to any assessment.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill resulting from business combinations represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill resulting from business combinations is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred, plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree, over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but tested for impairment at least annually. The Company has selected December 31 as the date to perform the annual impairment test. Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life on the Company’s balance sheet.

Other intangible assets consist of core deposit and acquired customer relationship intangible assets. They are initially measured at fair value and then are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range from 6 to 10 years.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Income:

Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 totaled $9,839,000, or $0.43 per diluted share compared to net income of $9,788,000, or $0.43 per diluted share for the quarter ended June 30, 2016. For the first half 2017, earnings improved $4,461,000, or 30%, to $19,395,000 as compared to $14,934,000 for the first six months of 2016. On a per share basis, net income totaled $0.85 per diluted share during the first six months of 2017 representing a 25% increase from the $0.68 per diluted share for the first half of 2016. The first half of 2016 included four months of operations of River Valley and was impacted by merger related charges associated with the closing of the River Valley transaction effective March 1, 2016. The merger related charges totaled approximately $4,129,000, or $2,612,000 on an after-tax basis, which represented approximately $0.12 per share during the first half of 2016.

Net Interest Income:

Net interest income is the Company’s single largest source of earnings, and represents the difference between interest and fees realized on earning assets, less interest paid on deposits and borrowed funds. Several factors contribute to the determination of net interest income and net interest margin, including the volume and mix of earning assets, interest rates, and income taxes. Many factors affecting net interest income are subject to control by management policies and actions. Factors beyond the control of management include the general level of credit and deposit demand, Federal Reserve Board monetary policy, and changes in tax laws.

The following table summarizes net interest income (on a tax-equivalent basis). For tax-equivalent adjustments, an effective tax rate of 35% was used for all periods presented ⁽¹⁾ .

Net interest income increased $142,000, or 1% (an increase of $306,000 or 1% on a tax-equivalent basis), for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared with the same quarter of 2016. The net interest margin represents tax-equivalent net interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets. The tax equivalent net interest margin was 3.78% for the second quarter of 2017 compared to 3.86% during the second quarter of 2016. The tax equivalent yield on earning assets totaled 4.15% during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared to 4.19% in the same period of 2016, while the cost of funds (expressed as a percentage of average earning assets) totaled 0.37% during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared to 0.33% in the same period of 2016.

The decline in the net interest margin during the second quarter of 2017 was primarily attributable to a decrease in the amount of accretion of loan discounts on acquired loans. Accretion of loan discounts on acquired loans contributed approximately 10 basis points to the net interest margin on an annualized basis in the second quarter of 2017 compared with 23 basis points in the second quarter of 2016. The higher level of accretion in the second quarter of 2016 was largely attributable to the pay-off activity on loans acquired in the River Valley transaction.

The Company's cost of funds increased approximately 4 basis points in the second quarter of 2017 compared with the second quarter of 2016. The higher cost of funds was largely attributable to an increase in short-term market interest rates over the past several quarters.

The following table summarizes net interest income (on a tax-equivalent basis). For tax-equivalent adjustments, an effective tax rate of 35% was used for all periods presented ⁽¹⁾ .

⁽²⁾	Loans held-for-sale and non-accruing loans have been included in average loans.

Net interest income increased $4,083,000, or 9% (an increase of $4,497,000 or 9% on a tax-equivalent basis), for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the same period of 2016. The increased level of net interest income during the first half of 2017 compared with the first half of 2016 was driven primarily by a higher level of earning assets resulting from the acquisition of River Valley and from organic loan growth excluding River Valley and by an improved net interest margin.

The tax equivalent net interest margin was 3.82% for the first six months of 2017 compared to 3.75% during the same period of 2016. The tax equivalent yield on earning assets totaled 4.18% during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to 4.07% in the same period of 2016, while the cost of funds (expressed as a percentage of average earning assets) totaled 0.36% during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to 0.32% in the same period of 2016.

The increase in the net interest margin during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the same period of the prior year was primarily attributable to an improved yield on the Company's securities portfolio partially offset by a higher cost of funds. Accretion of loan discounts on acquired loans remained relatively stable during the first half of 2017 compared with the same period of 2016. Accretion of loan discounts on acquired loans contributed approximately 14 basis points to the net interest margin on an annualized basis in the first half of 2017 and 15 basis points in the same period of 2016.

Provision for Loan Losses:

The Company provides for loan losses through regular provisions to the allowance for loan losses. The provision is affected by net charge-offs on loans and changes in specific and general allocations of the allowance. During the quarter ended June 30, 2017, the provision for loan losses totaled $350,000 which remained stable with the second quarter of 2016 provision of $350,000. The provision for loan loss represented approximately 7 basis points of average loans on an annualized basis in both the second quarter of 2017 and second quarter of 2016.

The provision for loan losses totaled $850,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $350,000, or 29%, compared to the provision of $1,200,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2016. During the first half of 2017, the provision for loan loss represented approximately 9 basis points of average loans on an annualized basis compared with 13 basis points of average loans on an annualized basis during the first half of 2016. The level of provision during all periods presented was done in accordance with the Company's standard methodology for determining the adequacy of its allowance for loan loss.

Net charge-offs totaled $196,000 or 4 basis points on an annualized basis of average loans outstanding during the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared with $207,000 or 4 basis points on an annualized basis of average loans outstanding during the same period of 2016. The Company realized net charge-offs of $338,000 or 3 basis points on an annualized basis of average loans outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared with net charge-offs of $334,000 or 4 basis points on an annualized basis of average loans outstanding during the same period of 2016.

The provision for loan losses made during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was made at a level deemed necessary by management to absorb changes in estimated, probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. A detailed evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is completed quarterly by management, the results of which are used to determine provision for loan losses. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors.

Non-interest Income:

During the quarter ended June 30, 2017, non-interest income totaled $7,797,000, a decrease of $258,000, or 3%, compared with the second quarter of 2016.

Trust and investment product fees increased $127,000, or 10%, during the second quarter of 2017 compared with the second quarter of 2016. The increase was primarily attributable to fees generated from increased assets under management in the Company's wealth advisory group.

Company owned life insurance revenue increased $233,000, or 94%, during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, compared with the second quarter of 2016. The increase was largely related to death benefits received from life insurance policies during the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

Interchange fee income increased $283,000, or 32%, during the second quarter of 2017 compared with the second quarter of 2016. The increase was primarily attributable to increased card utilization by customers.

The Company realized no gains on sales of securities during the second quarter of 2017 compared with a net gain on the sale of securities of $968,000 in the second quarter of 2016 related to the sale of $41.4 million of securities.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, non-interest income totaled $15,985,000, an increase of $713,000, or 5%, compared with the first half of 2016.

Trust and investment product fees increased $349,000, or 16%, during the first half of 2017 compared with the first half of 2016. The increase was primarily attributable to fees generated from increased assets under management in the Company's wealth advisory group.

Service charges on deposit accounts increased $195,000, or 7%, during the first half of 2017 compared with the first half of 2016. The increase was primarily attributable to the inclusion of River Valley for the full first six months of 2017 compared to four months during the first half of 2016.

Company owned life insurance revenue increased $272,000, or 59%, during the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared with the same period of 2016. The increase was largely related to death benefits received from life insurance policies during 2017.

Interchange fee income increased $518,000, or 31%, during the first half of 2017 compared with the same period of 2016. The increase was attributable to a full six months of operations from River Valley included in 2017 and increased card utilization by customers.

Other operating income increased $252,000, or 20%, during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the first half of 2016. The increase in 2017 compared with the first half of 2016 was largely attributable to increased fees and fair value adjustments associated with swap transactions with loan customers.

The Company realized no gains on sales of securities during the first half of 2017 compared with a net gain on the sale of securities of $968,000 in the first half of 2016 related to the sale of $41.4 million of securities.

Non-interest Expense:

During the quarter ended June 30, 2017, non-interest expense totaled $18,996,000, an increase of $657,000, or 4%, compared with the second quarter of 2016.

Salaries and benefits increased $1,276,000, or 13%, during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared with the second quarter of 2016. The increase in salaries and benefits during the second quarter of 2017 compared with the second quarter of 2016 was primarily attributable to an increased number of full-time equivalent employees and higher levels employee benefit costs including incentive compensation plan costs and health insurance costs.

Data processing fees declined $137,000, or 12%, in the second quarter of 2017 compared with the second quarter of 2016. The decline during 2017 compared with 2016 was primarily attributable to expenses related to the River Valley transaction.

Professional fees increased $133,000, or 17%, during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared with the second quarter of 2016. The increase was largely attributable to costs associated with the three-for-two stock split completed during the second quarter of 2017.

Other operating expenses decreased $445,000, or 17%, during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared with the second quarter of 2016. The decline was primarily attributable to various card and deposit account expenses which were higher in 2016 related to the River Valley transaction, to deposit gathering strategic initiatives and to a lower level of debit card fraud losses in 2017 compared with 2016.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, non-interest expense totaled $38,032,000, a decrease of $547,000, or 1%, compared with the first six months of 2016. During the first half of 2016, the Company recorded costs related to the River Valley merger transaction that totaled $4,129,000.

Salaries and benefits increased $1,119,000, or 5%, during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the same period of 2016. The increase in 2017 compared with 2016 was primarily attributable to having River Valley's operations included for the entire first six months of 2017 compared with only four months of 2016 combined with an increased number of full-time equivalent

employees and higher levels employee benefit costs including incentive compensation plan costs and health insurance costs. For comparison purposes, the increased salary and benefit costs in 2017 were partially offset by the settlement of various employment and benefit arrangements which totaled $1,934,000 related to the River Valley merger in the first half of 2016.

Occupancy, furniture and equipment expense increased $301,000, or 7%, during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the same period of 2016. This increase was related to the operation of River Valley's 15 branch network during all of the first half of 2017 compared with four months in the first half of 2016.

Data processing fees declined $1,291,000, or 39%, in the first half of 2017 compared with the first half of 2016. The decline during 2017 compared with 2016 was primarily related to expenses totaling $1,198,000 associated with the acquisition of River Valley that were incurred during the first quarter of 2016.

Professional fees declined $382,000, or 18%, during the first six months of 2017 compared with the first half of 2016. The decline during 2017 compared with 2016 was attributable to expenses totaling $724,000 associated with the acquisition of River Valley that were incurred during the first half of 2016 partially offset by fees incurred during 2017 related to the three-for-two stock split completed during the second quarter of 2017.

Advertising and promotion increased $235,000, or 20%, during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase in advertising and promotion was largely related to charitable contribution activity in the first half of 2017.

Income Taxes:

The Company’s effective income tax rate was 25.8% and 30.3%, respectively, during the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. The Company’s effective income tax rate was 27.2% and 28.7%, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. The effective tax rate in all periods presented was lower than the blended statutory rate resulting primarily from the Company’s tax-exempt investment income on securities, loans and company-owned life insurance, income tax credits generated from affordable housing projects, and income generated by subsidiaries domiciled in a state with no state or local income tax.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets for the Company increased to $3.005 billion at June 30, 2017, representing an increase of $48.8 million, or 3% on an annualized basis, compared with December 31, 2016.

Total loans increased $41.7 million, or 4% on an annualized basis at June 30, 2017 compared with year-end 2016. Included in the first half of 2017 loan growth was an increase of approximately $24.4 million, or 4% on annualized basis, of commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans while agricultural loans grew $10.1 million, or 7% on an annualized basis. Retail loans which include home equity, consumer and residential loans grew by approximately $7.2 million, or 4% on an annualized basis, during the first half of 2017.

The following table indicates the breakdown of the allowance for loan losses for the periods indicated (dollars in thousands):



	June 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
Commercial and Industrial Loans and Leases	$	3,672	$	3,725
Commercial Real Estate Loans	5,316		5,452

Residential Mortgage Loans	353		329
Unallocated	596		690

Total Allowance for Loan Loss	$	15,320	$	14,808

The Company’s allowance for loan losses totaled $15.3 million at June 30, 2017 compared to $14.8 million at December 31, 2016 representing an increase of $512,000, or 7% on an annualized basis. The increase in the allowance for loan loss during the first half of 2017 was primarily related to the down-grade of two agricultural relationships during the first half of 2017 from pass rated credits to special mention credits. The allowance for loan losses represented 0.75% of period-end loans at June 30, 2017 compared with 0.74% of period-end loans at December 31, 2016. Under acquisition accounting treatment, loans acquired are recorded at fair value which includes a credit risk component, and therefore the allowance on loans acquired is not carried over from the seller. The Company held a discount on acquired loans of $8.2 million as of June 30, 2017 and $10.0 million at December 31, 2016.

The following is an analysis of the Company’s non-performing assets at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

Total	$	3,097	$	3,793	$	62	$	2

Non-performing assets totaled $4.4 million at June 30, 2017 compared to $4.0 million of non-performing assets at December 31, 2016. Non-performing assets represented 0.15% of total assets at June 30, 2017 compared to 0.14% of total assets at December 31, 2016. Non-performing loans totaled $3.2 million at June 30, 2017 compared to $3.8 million at December 31, 2016. Non-performing loans represented 0.16% of total loans at June 30, 2017 compared to 0.19% at December 31, 2016. The increase in

non-performing assets during the first half of 2017 compared with December 31, 2016 levels was attributable to a single commercial real estate credit relationship that was placed on non-accrual status in the first quarter of 2017 and subsequently placed into other real estate owned during the second quarter of 2017.

Loan impairment is reported when repayment under the terms of the loan is not expected. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the allowance is specifically 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. Commercial and industrial loans, commercial real estate loans, and agricultural loans are evaluated individually for impairment. Smaller balance homogeneous loans are evaluated for impairment in total. Such loans include real estate loans secured by one-to-four family residences and loans to individuals for household, family and other personal expenditures. Individually evaluated loans on non-accrual are generally considered impaired. Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectible.

Total deposits increased $13.8 million, or 1% on an annualized basis, as of June 30, 2017 compared with December 31, 2016.

Capital Resources:

As of June 30, 2017, shareholders’ equity increased by $24.7 million to $355.0 million compared with $330.3 million at year-end 2016. The increase in shareholders' equity was primarily attributable to an increase of $13.5 million in retained earnings and an increase of $10.6 million in accumulated other comprehensive income primarily related to the increase in value of the Company's available-for-sale securities portfolio. Shareholders’ equity represented 11.8% of total assets at June 30, 2017 and 11.2% of total assets at December 31, 2016. Shareholders’ equity included $56.6 million of goodwill and other intangible assets at June 30, 2017 compared to $56.9 million of goodwill and other intangible assets at December 31, 2016.

Federal banking regulations provide guidelines for determining the capital adequacy of bank holding companies and banks. These guidelines provide for a more narrow definition of core capital and assign a measure of risk to the various categories of assets. The Company is required to maintain minimum levels of capital in proportion to total risk-weighted assets and off-balance sheet exposures.

As of January 1, 2015, the Company and its subsidiary bank adopted the new Basel III regulatory capital framework. The adoption of this new framework modified the regulatory capital calculations, minimum capital levels and well-capitalized thresholds and added the new Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio. Additionally, under the new rules, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments, the Company is required to maintain a capital conservation buffer above the adequately capitalized regulatory capital ratios. The capital conservation buffer is being phased in from 0.00% in 2015 to 2.50% in 2019. For June 30, 2017, the capital conservation buffer was 1.25% and for December 31, 2016, the capital conservation buffer was 0.625%. At June 30, 2017, the capital levels for the Company and its subsidiary bank remained well in excess of of the minimum amounts needed for capital adequacy purposes and the bank's capital levels met the necessary requirements to be considered well-capitalized.

The table below presents the Company’s consolidated and the subsidiary bank's capital ratios under regulatory guidelines:



	6/30/2017 Ratio		12/31/2016 Ratio		Minimum for Capital Adequacy Purposes		Well-Capitalized Guidelines
Total Capital (to Risk Weighted Assets)
Consolidated	13.56	%	13.30	%	8.00	%	N/A
Bank	12.17	%	12.48	%	8.00	%	10.00	%
Tier 1 (Core) Capital (to Risk Weighted Assets)
Consolidated	12.92	%	12.66	%	6.00	%	N/A
Bank	11.52	%	11.84	%	6.00	%	8.00	%
Common Tier 1, (CET 1) Capital Ratio (to Risk Weighted Assets)
Consolidated	12.46	%	12.19	%	4.50	%	N/A
Bank	11.52	%	11.84	%	4.50	%	6.50	%
Tier 1 Capital (to Average Assets)
Consolidated	10.52	%	10.09	%	4.00	%	N/A
Bank	9.39	%	9.46	%	4.00	%	5.00	%

Under the the final rules provided for by Basel III, accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") was to be included in a banking organization's Common Equity Tier 1 capital. The final rules allowed community banks to make a one-time election not to include the additional components of AOCI in regulatory capital and instead use the existing treatment under the general risk-based capital rules that excludes most AOCI components from regulatory capital. The Company elected, in its March 31, 2015 regulatory filings (Call Report and FR Y-9), to opt-out and continue the existing treatment of AOCI for regulatory capital purposes.

Liquidity:

The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows details the elements of changes in the Company’s consolidated cash and cash equivalents. Total cash and cash equivalents decreased $20.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 ending at $44.0 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, operating activities resulted in net cash inflows of $28.5 million. Investing activities resulted in net cash outflows of $62.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017. Financing activities resulted in net cash inflows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 of $13.3 million.

The parent company is a corporation separate and distinct from its bank and other subsidiaries. The Company uses funds at the parent-company level to pay dividends to its shareholders, to acquire or make other investments in other businesses or their securities or assets, to repurchase its stock from time to time, and for other general corporate purposes including debt service. The parent company does not have access at the parent-company level to the deposits and certain other sources of funds that are available to its bank subsidiary to support its operations. Instead, the parent company has historically derived most of its revenues from dividends paid to the parent company by its bank subsidiary. The Company’s banking subsidiary is subject to statutory restrictions on its ability to pay dividends to the parent company. The parent company has in recent years supplemented the dividends received from its subsidiaries with borrowings. As of June 30, 2017, the parent company had approximately $23.0 million of cash and cash equivalents available to meet its cash flow needs.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND ASSOCIATED RISKS

The Company from time to time in its oral and written communications makes statements relating to its expectations regarding the future. These types of statements are considered “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company may include forward-looking statements in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), such as this Form 10-Q, in other written materials, and in oral statements made by senior management to analysts, investors, representatives of the media, and others. Such forward looking statements can include statements about the Company’s net interest income or net interest margin; its adequacy of allowance for loan losses, levels of provisions for loan losses, and the quality of the Company’s loans, investment securities and other assets; simulations of changes in interest rates; expected results from mergers with or acquisitions of other businesses; litigation results; tax estimates and recognition; dividend policy; parent company cash resources and cash requirements, and parent company capital resources; estimated cost savings, plans and objectives for future operations; and expectations about the Company’s financial and business performance and other business matters as well as economic and market conditions and trends. They often can be identified by the use of words like “expect,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “intend,” “project,” “estimate,” “believe” or “anticipate,” or similar expressions.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the forward-looking statement is made.

Readers are cautioned that, by their nature, all forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors. Actual results may differ materially and adversely from the expectations of the Company that are expressed or implied by any forward-looking statement. The discussions in this Item 2 list some of the factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to vary materially from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. Other risks, uncertainties, and factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to vary materially from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statement include the unknown future direction of interest rates and the timing and magnitude of any changes in interest rates; changes in competitive conditions; the introduction, withdrawal, success and timing of asset/liability management strategies or of mergers and acquisitions and other business initiatives and strategies; changes in customer borrowing, repayment, investment and deposit practices; changes in fiscal, monetary and tax policies; changes in financial and capital markets; deterioration in general economic conditions, either nationally or locally, resulting in, among other things, credit quality deterioration; capital management activities, including possible future sales of new securities, or possible repurchases or redemptions by the Company of outstanding debt or equity securities; risks of expansion through acquisitions and mergers, such as unexpected credit quality problems of the acquired loans or other assets, unexpected attrition of the customer base of the acquired institution or branches, and difficulties in integration of the acquired operations; factors driving impairment charges on investments; the impact, extent and timing of technological changes; potential cyber-attacks, information security breaches and other criminal activities; litigation liabilities, including related costs, expenses, settlements and judgments, or the outcome of matters before regulatory agencies, whether pending or commencing in the future; actions of the Federal Reserve Board; changes in accounting principles and interpretations; potential increases of federal deposit insurance premium expense, and possible future special assessments of FDIC premiums, either industry wide or specific to the Company’s banking subsidiary; actions of the regulatory authorities under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and other possible legislative and regulatory actions and reforms; and the continued availability of earnings and excess capital sufficient for the lawful and prudent declaration and payment of cash dividends. Such statements reflect our views with respect to future events and are subject to these and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to the operations, results of operations, growth strategy and liquidity of the Company. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

Investors should consider these risks, uncertainties, and other factors, in addition to those mentioned by the Company in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, and other SEC filings from time to time, when considering any forward-looking statement.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company’s exposure to market risk is reviewed on a regular basis by the Asset/Liability Committee and Boards of Directors of the parent company and its subsidiary bank. Primary market risks which impact the Company’s operations are liquidity risk and interest rate risk.

The liquidity of the parent company is dependent upon the receipt of dividends from its subsidiary bank, which is subject to certain regulatory limitations. The Bank’s source of funding is predominately core deposits, maturities of securities, repayments of loan principal and interest, federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank.

The Company monitors interest rate risk by the use of computer simulation modeling to estimate the potential impact on its net interest income under various interest rate scenarios, and by estimating its static interest rate sensitivity position. Another method by which the Company’s interest rate risk position can be estimated is by computing estimated changes in its net portfolio value (“NPV”). This method estimates interest rate risk exposure from movements in interest rates by using interest rate sensitivity analysis to determine the change in the NPV of discounted cash flows from assets and liabilities. NPV represents the market value of portfolio equity and is equal to the estimated market value of assets minus the estimated market value of liabilities.

Computations for measuring both net interest income and NPV are based on a number of assumptions, including the relative levels of market interest rates and prepayments in mortgage loans and certain types of investments. These computations do not contemplate any actions management may undertake in response to changes in interest rates, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. In addition, certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of computing both net interest income and NPV. Should interest rates remain or decrease below current levels, the proportion of adjustable rate loans could decrease in future periods due to refinancing activity. In the event of an interest rate change, prepayment levels would likely be different from those assumed in the modeling. Lastly, the ability of many borrowers to repay their adjustable rate debt may decline during a rising interest rate environment.

The Company from time to time utilizes derivatives to manage interest rate risk. Management continuously evaluates the merits of such interest rate risk products but does not anticipate the use of such products to become a major part of the Company’s risk management strategy.

The table below provides an assessment of the risk to net interest income over the next 12 months in the event of a sudden and sustained 1% and 2% increase and decrease in prevailing interest rates (dollars in thousands).

Interest Rate Sensitivity as of June 30, 2017 - Net Interest Income



	Net Interest Income

Changes in Rates	Amount		% Change
+2%	$	98,356	(3.01	)%
+1%	99,931		(1.46	)%
Base	101,410		—
-1%	96,447		(4.89	)%
-2%	92,903		(8.39	)%

The above table is a measurement of the Company’s net interest income at risk, assuming a static balance sheet as of June 30, 2017 and instantaneous parallel changes in interest rates. The Company also monitors interest rate risk under other scenarios including a more gradual movement in market interest rates. This type of scenario can at times produce different modeling results in measuring interest rate risk sensitivity.

The table below provides an assessment of the risk to NPV in the event of a sudden and sustained 1% and 2% increase and decrease in prevailing interest rates (dollars in thousands).

This Item 3 includes forward-looking statements. See “Forward-looking Statements and Associated Risks” included in Part I, Item 2 of this Report for a discussion of certain factors that could cause the Company’s actual exposure to market risk to vary materially from that expressed or implied above. These factors include possible changes in economic conditions; interest rate fluctuations, competitive product and pricing pressures within the Company’s markets; and equity and fixed income market fluctuations. Actual experience may also vary materially to the extent that the Company’s assumptions described above prove to be inaccurate.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2017, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were, as of that date, effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in the Company’s periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of systems of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective systems of disclosure controls and procedures can provide only reasonable assurances of achieving their control objectives.

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s second fiscal quarter of 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
