2. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for a full year presentation and certain disclosures have been condensed or omitted in accordance with rules and regulations of the SEC. In the application of certain accounting policies, management is required to make assumptions regarding the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Different amounts could be reported under different conditions, or if different assumptions were used in the application of these accounting policies. The accounting policies that management considers critical in this respect are the determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses, the expenses and liabilities associated with the Company’s pension and post-retirement benefits, and the review of its securities portfolio for other than temporary impairment.

In management’s opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year ended December 31, 2013. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. There have been no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies from those presented in the 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Refer to Note 3- “Accounting Standards Updates” of this Report for a discussion of recently issued accounting guidelines.

Cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated statements of cash flow include cash and noninterest bearing balances due from banks, interest-bearing balances due from banks, and money market funds. Management regularly evaluates the credit risk associated with the counterparties to these transactions and believes that the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and/or disclosure, and determined that no further disclosures were required.

The consolidated financial information included herein combines the results of operations, the assets, liabilities, and shareholders’ equity of the Company and its subsidiaries. Amounts in the prior periods’ unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are reclassified when necessary to conform to the current periods’ presentation. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

3. Accounting Standards Updates

ASU 2011-11, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210) – Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” ASU 2011-11 amends Topic 210, “Balance Sheet,” to require an entity to disclose both gross and net information about financial instruments, such as sales and repurchase agreements and reverse sale and repurchase agreements and securities borrowing/lending arrangements, and derivative instruments that are eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and/or subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. ASU No. 2013-01, “ Balance Sheet (Topic 210) – Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities ,” clarifies that ordinary trade receivables are not within the scope of ASU 2011-11. ASU 2011-11, as amended by ASU 2013-01, became effective for the Company on January 1, 2013 and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

ASU 2012-02, “ Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) – Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment .” ASU 2012-02 gives entities the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, an entity determines it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then the entity must perform the quantitative impairment test. If, under the quantitative impairment test, the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an entity should recognize an impairment loss in the amount of that excess. Permitting an entity to assess qualitative factors when testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment results in guidance that is similar to the goodwill impairment testing guidance in ASU 2011-08. ASU 2012-02 became effective for the Company on January 1, 2013 and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

ASU 2012-06, “Business Combinations (Topic 805) – Subsequent Accounting for an Indemnification Asset Recognized at the Acquisition Date as a Result of a Government-Assisted Acquisition of a Financial Institution (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) .” ASU 2012-06 clarifies the applicable guidance for subsequently measuring an indemnification asset recognized as a result of a government-assisted acquisition of a financial institution. Under ASU 2012-06, when a reporting entity recognizes an indemnification asset as a result of a government-assisted acquisition of a financial institution and, subsequently, a change in the cash flows expected to be collected on the indemnification asset occurs (as a result of a change in cash flows expected to be collected on the assets subject to indemnification), the reporting entity should subsequently account for the change in the measurement of the indemnification asset on the same basis as the change in the assets subject to indemnification. Any amortization of changes in value should be limited to the contractual term of the indemnification agreement (that is, the lesser of the term of the indemnification agreement and the remaining life of the indemnified assets). ASU 2012-06 became effective for the Company on January 1, 2013 and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

ASU 2013-02, “ Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) – Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income .” ASU 2013-02 amends recent guidance related to the reporting of comprehensive income to enhance the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income. ASU 2013-02 became effective for the Company on January 1, 2013 and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements other than providing the additional required disclosure in Note 10 – “Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)”.

4. Mergers and Acquisitions

On August 1, 2012, Tompkins completed its acquisition of VIST Financial Corp. (“VIST Financial”), a financial holding company headquartered in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania, and parent to VIST Bank, VIST Insurance, LLC (“VIST Insurance”), and VIST Capital Management, LLC (“VIST Capital Management”). On the acquisition date, VIST Financial had $1.4 billion in total assets, which included $889.3 million in loans, and also had $1.2 billion in deposits. On the acquisition date, VIST Financial was merged into Tompkins. VIST Bank, a Pennsylvania state-chartered commercial bank, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tompkins and will continue to operate as a separate subsidiary bank of Tompkins. VIST Insurance was merged into Tompkins Insurance Agencies, Inc., and VIST Capital Management became part of VIST Bank. The acquisition expands the Company’s presence into the southeastern region of Pennsylvania.

The acquisition was a merger transaction. Under the terms of the merger agreement, each share of VIST Financial common stock was cancelled and converted into the right to receive 0.3127 shares of Tompkins common stock, with any fractional share entitlement paid in cash, resulting in the Company issuing 2,093,689 shares at a fair value of $82.2 million. The Company also paid $1.2 million to retire outstanding VIST Financial employee stock options; while other VIST Financial employee stock options were converted into options to purchase Tompkins’ common stock, with an aggregate fair value of $1.1 million. In addition, immediately prior to the completion of the merger, Tompkins purchased from the United States Department of the Treasury the issued and outstanding shares of VIST Financial Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, as well as the warrant to purchase shares of VIST Financial common stock issued in connection with the issuance of the preferred stock (the “TARP Purchase”) for an aggregate purchase price of $26.5 million. The securities purchased in the TARP Purchase were cancelled in connection with the consummation of the merger.

The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. VIST Financial’s assets and liabilities were recorded at their preliminary estimated fair values as of August 1, 2012, the acquisition date, and VIST Financial’s results of operations have been included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income since that date.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition were recorded at their estimated fair values based upon management’s best estimates using information available at the date of the acquisition, including the use of a third party valuation specialist. The fair values were preliminary estimates and subject to adjustment for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition. The one year period ended August 1, 2013. The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities.


Consideration Paid (in thousands)	August 1, 2012

Tompkins common stock issued	$	82,198
Cash payment for fractional shares		13
Cash payments for VIST Financial employee stock options		1,236
Fair value of VIST Financial employee stock options, converted to Tompkins ’ common stock options		1,107
Cash payment for VIST Financial TARP, warrants and accrued and unpaid dividends		26,454
	$	111,008

Recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at estimated fair value
Cash and cash equivalents	$	32,985
Available-for-sale securities		376,298
FHLB stock		4,751
Loans and leases		889,336
Premises and equipment		7,343
Identifiable intangible assets		16,017
Accrued interest receivable and other assets		68,045
Deposits		(1,185,235	)
Borrowings		(138,263	)
Other liabilities		(7,698	)

Total identifiable assets	$	63,579

Goodwill	$	47,429

Loans and leases acquired in the VIST Financial acquisition were recorded at fair value and subsequently accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 310, and there was no carryover of related allowance for loan and lease losses. The fair values of loans acquired from VIST Financial were estimated using cash flow projections based on the remaining maturity and repricing terms. Cash flows were adjusted for estimated future credit losses and the rate of prepayments. Projected cash flows were then discounted to present value using a risk-adjusted market rate for similar loans.

The following is a summary of the loans acquired in the VIST Financial acquisition as of the closing date.


(in thousands)	Acquired Credit Impaired Loans		Acquired Non- Credit Impaired Loans		Total Acquired Loans

Contractually required principal and interest at acquisition	$	159,325	$	1,058,708	$	1,218,033
Contractual cash flows not expected to be collected (non-accretable difference)		57,545		0		57,545
Expected cash flows at acquisition		101,780		1,058,708		1,160,488
Interest component of expected cash flows (accretable difference)		10,008		261,144		271,152
Fair value of acquired loans		91,772		797,564		889,336

The core deposit intangible and customer related intangibles totaled $10.7 million and $5.3 million, respectively, and are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of approximately 10 years and 15 years, respectively, using an accelerated method. The second quarter of 2013 included an adjustment of $165,000 to goodwill due to the completion of the final income tax return related to the VIST acquisition. The goodwill is not being amortized but will be evaluated at least annually for impairment. The goodwill, core deposit intangibles, and customer related intangibles are not deductible for taxes.

The fair values of deposit liabilities with no stated maturities such as checking, money market, and savings accounts, were assumed to equal the carrying amounts since these deposits are payable on demand. The fair values of certificates of deposits and IRAs represent the present value of contractual cash flows discounted at market rates for similar certificates of deposit.

The fair value of borrowings, which were mainly repurchase agreements with a large money center bank, was determined by discounted cash flow, as well as obtaining quotes from the money center bank. The Company also assumed trust preferred debentures. The fair value of these instruments was estimated by using the income approach whereby the expected cash flows over remaining estimated life are discounted using the Company’s credit spread over the current fully indexed yield based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate curve and volatilities.

Direct costs related to the acquisition were expensed as incurred. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2012, the Company incurred $15.6 million of merger and acquisition integration-related expenses, which have been separately stated in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company incurred $228,000 of merger and acquisition integration-related expenses.

There were no unrealized losses on held-to-maturity securities at December 31, 2012.

The gross unrealized losses reported at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 for mortgage-backed securities-residential relate to investment securities issued by U.S. government sponsored entities such as Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, and U.S. government agencies such as Government National Mortgage Association, and non-U.S. Government agencies or sponsored entities. The total gross unrealized losses shown in the table above were primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and levels of market liquidity, relative to when the investment securities were purchased, and generally not due to the credit quality of the investment securities.

The Company does not intend to sell the securities that are in an unrealized loss position and it is not more-likely-than not that the Company will be required to sell these available-for-sale investment securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, management believes the unrealized losses detailed in the tables above are not other-than-temporary.

Ongoing Assessment of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment

On a quarterly basis, the Company performs an assessment to determine whether there have been any events or economic circumstances indicating that a security with an unrealized loss has suffered other-than-temporary impairment. A debt security is considered impaired if the fair value is less than its amortized cost basis at the reporting date. If impaired, the Company then assesses whether the unrealized loss is other-than-temporary. An unrealized loss on a debt security is generally deemed to be other-than-temporary and a credit loss is deemed to exist if the present value, discounted at the security’s effective rate, of the expected future cash flows is less than the amortized cost basis of the debt security. As a result, the credit loss component of an other-than-temporary impairment write-down for debt securities is recorded in earnings while the remaining portion of the impairment loss is recognized, net of tax, in other comprehensive income provided that the Company does not intend to sell the underlying debt security and it is more-likely-than not that the Company would not have to sell the debt security prior to recovery of the unrealized loss, which may be to maturity. If the Company intended to sell any securities with an unrealized loss or it is more-likely-than not that the Company would be required to sell the investment securities, before recovery of their amortized cost basis, then the entire unrealized loss would be recorded in earnings.

The Company considers the following factors in determining whether a credit loss exists and the period over which the debt security is expected to recover.

	-	The length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than the amortized cost basis;

	-	The level of credit enhancement provided by the structure which includes, but is not limited to, credit subordination positions, excess spreads, overcollateralization, and protective triggers;

As of September 30, 2013, the Company owned one corporate (non-agency) collateralized mortgage obligation issue (“CMO”) in a senior tranche of which the aggregate historical cost basis for this non-agency CMO was less than its estimated fair value. At September 30, 2013, this non-agency CMO with an amortized cost basis of $375,000 was collateralized by residential real estate and is not currently deferring or in default of interest payments to the Company. As of December 31, 2012, the Company owned 5 corporate, non-U.S. Government agency collateralized mortgage obligation issues (“CMO’s”) in super senior or senior tranches of which the aggregate historical cost basis for 3 of these non-agency CMO’s was greater than their estimated fair value. At December 31, 2012, all 5 non-agency CMO’s with an amortized cost basis of $4.5 million were collateralized by residential real estate. None of the 5 non-agency CMO’s whose aggregate historical cost basis was greater than their estimated fair value were deferring or were in default of interest payments to the Company.

During the first quarter of 2013, the Company sold three non-agency CMO securities for a gain of approximately $94,000. Prior to the first quarter of 2013, these three non-agency CMO securities were determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired and the Company did recognize net credit impairment charges to earnings of $441,000 over the life of these three securities. Also during the first quarter of 2013, one non-agency CMO security was repaid in full. The Company did not recognize any net credit impairment charge to earnings on these securities in 2013. The Company did recognize $55,000 and $120,000, respectively, in net credit impairment charges to earnings on these securities in the third quarter and nine months ending September 30, 2012.

The following table summarizes the roll-forward of credit losses on debt securities held by the Company for which a portion of an other-than-temporary impairment is recognized in other comprehensive income:

The Company also holds non-marketable Federal Home Loan Bank New York (“FHLBNY”) stock, non-marketable Federal Home Loan Bank Pittsburgh (“FHLBPITT”) stock, non-marketable Atlantic Central Bankers Bank (“ACBB”) stock, and non-marketable Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) stock. The required investment in FHLB stock is tied to the Company’s borrowing levels with each FHLB. Holdings of FHLBNY stock, FHLBPITT stock, ACBB stock, and FRB stock totaled $14.1 million, $5.7 million, $95,000, and $2.1 million at September 30, 2013, respectively, and $13.2 million, $4.1 million, $95,000 and $2.1 million at December 31, 2012, respectively. These securities are carried at par, which is also cost. The FHLBNY and FHLBPITT continue to pay dividends and repurchase stock. As such, the Company has not recognized any impairment on its holdings of FHLBNY and FHLBPITT stock. Federal law requires a member institution of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) system to hold stock of its district FHLB according to a predetermined formula. This stock is recorded at cost. Quarterly, we evaluate our investment in the FHLB for impairment. We evaluate recent and long-term operating performance, liquidity, funding and capital positions, stock repurchase history, dividend history and impact of legislative and regulatory changes. Based on our most recent evaluation, we have determined that no impairment write-downs are currently required.

1 Results in increased interest income as a prospective yield adjustment over the remaining life of the loans, as well as increased interest income from loan sales, modification and prepayments.
2 Represents changes in cash flows expected to be collected due to factors other than credit (e.g. changes in prepayment assumptions and/or changes in interest rates on variable rate loans).

During the second and third quarter of 2013 we increased our estimate of future cash flows on acquired loans to reflect our current outlook for prepayment speeds on these balances and increases in interest rates on variable rate loans. The decreases in prepayment speed assumptions and increases in interest rate assumptions increased our accretable discount by $4.8 million. This change did not materially impact our current quarter interest income or net interest margin.

At September 30, 2013, acquired loans included $27.4 million of covered loans. VIST Financial had previously acquired these loans in an FDIC assisted transaction in the fourth quarter of 2010. In accordance with a loss sharing agreement with the FDIC, certain losses and expenses relating to covered loans may be reimbursed by the FDIC at 70% or, if net losses exceed certain levels specified in the loss sharing agreements, 80%. See Note 8 – “FDIC Indemnification Asset Related to Covered Loans” for further discussion of the loss sharing agreements and related FDIC indemnification asset.

The Company has adopted comprehensive lending policies, underwriting standards and loan review procedures. Management reviews these policies and procedures on a regular basis. The Company discussed its lending policies and underwriting guidelines for its various lending portfolios in Note 6 – “Loans and Leases” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. There have been no significant changes in these policies and guidelines. As such, these policies are reflective of new originations as well as those balances held at September 30, 2013. The Company’s Board of Directors approves the lending policies at least annually. The Company recognizes that exceptions to policy guidelines may occasionally occur and has established procedures for approving exceptions to these policy guidelines. Management has also implemented reporting systems to monitor loan origination, loan quality, concentrations of credit, loan delinquencies and nonperforming loans and potential problem loans.

Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments are due. Generally loans are placed on nonaccrual status if principal or interest payments become 90 days or more past due and/or management deems the collectability of the principal and/or interest to be in question as well as when required by regulatory agencies. When interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Payments received on loans on nonaccrual are generally applied to reduce the principal balance of the loan. Loans are generally returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current, the borrower has established a payment history, and future payments are reasonably assured. When management determines that the collection of principal in full is improbable, management will charge-off a partial amount or full amount of the loan balance. Management considers specific facts and circumstances relative to each individual credit in making such a determination. For residential and consumer loans, management uses specific regulatory guidance and thresholds for determining charge-offs.

Acquired loans that met the criteria for nonaccrual of interest prior to the acquisition may be considered performing after the date of acquisition, regardless of whether the customer is contractually delinquent, if we can reasonably estimate the timing and amount of the expected cash flows on such loans and if the Company expects to fully collect the new carrying value of the loans. As such, we may no longer consider the loan to be nonaccrual or nonperforming and may accrue interest on these loans, including the impact of any accretable discount. To the extent we cannot reasonably estimate cash flows, interest income recognition is discontinued. The Company has determined that it can reasonably estimate future cash flows on our acquired loans that are past due 90 days or more and accruing interest and the Company expects to fully collect the carrying value of the loans.

The below table is an age analysis of past due loans, segregated by originated and acquired loan and lease portfolios, and by class of loans, as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

7. Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

Originated Loans and Leases

Management reviews the appropriateness of the allowance for loan and lease losses (“allowance”) on a regular basis. Management considers the accounting policy relating to the allowance to be a critical accounting policy, given the inherent uncertainty in evaluating the levels of the allowance required to cover credit losses in the portfolio and the material effect that assumptions could have on the Company’s results of operations. The Company has developed a methodology to measure the amount of estimated loan loss exposure inherent in the loan portfolio to assure that an appropriate allowance is maintained. The Company’s methodology is based upon guidance provided in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 102, Selected Loan Loss Allowance Methodology and Documentation Issues and ASC Topic 310, Receivables and ASC Topic 450, Contingencies .

The Company’s methodology for determining and allocating the allowance for loan and lease losses focuses on ongoing reviews of larger individual loans and leases, historical net charge-offs, delinquencies in the loan and lease portfolio, the level of impaired and nonperforming loans, values of underlying loan and lease collateral, the overall risk characteristics of the portfolios, changes in character or size of the portfolios, geographic location, current economic conditions, changes in capabilities and experience of lending management and staff, and other relevant factors. The various factors used in the methodologies are reviewed on a regular basis.

At least annually, management reviews all commercial and commercial real estate loans exceeding a certain threshold and assigns a risk rating. The Company uses an internal loan rating system of pass credits, special mention loans, substandard loans, doubtful loans, and loss loans (which are fully charged off). The definitions of “special mention”, “substandard”, “doubtful” and “loss” are consistent with banking regulatory definitions. Factors considered in assigning loan ratings include: the customer’s ability to repay based upon customer’s expected future cash flow, operating results, and financial condition; the underlying collateral, if any; and the economic environment and industry in which the customer operates. Special mention loans have potential weaknesses that if left uncorrected may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects and a downgrade to a more severe risk rating. A substandard loan credit has a well-defined weakness which makes payment default or principal exposure likely, but not yet certain. There is a possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. A doubtful loan has a high possibility of loss, but the extent of the loss is difficult to quantify because of certain important and reasonably specific pending factors.

At least quarterly, management reviews all commercial and commercial real estate loans and leases and agriculturally related loans with an outstanding principal balance of over $500,000 that are internally risk rated special mention or worse, giving consideration to payment history, debt service payment capacity, collateral support, strength of guarantors, local market trends, industry trends, and other factors relevant to the particular borrowing relationship. Through this process, management identifies impaired loans. For loans and leases considered impaired, estimated exposure amounts are based upon collateral values or present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate of each loan. For commercial loans, commercial mortgage loans, and agricultural loans not specifically reviewed, and for homogenous loan portfolios such as residential mortgage loans and consumer loans, estimated exposure amounts are assigned based upon historical net loss experience and current charge-off trends, past due status, and management’s judgment of the effects of current economic conditions on portfolio performance. In determining and assigning historical loss factors to the various homogeneous portfolios, the Company calculates average net losses over a period of time and compares this average to current levels and trends to ensure that the calculated average loss factors are reasonable.

Since the methodology is based upon historical experience and trends as well as management’s judgment, factors may arise that result in different estimates. Significant factors that could give rise to changes in these estimates may include, but are not limited to, changes in economic conditions in the local area, concentration of risk, changes in interest rates, and declines in local property values. While management’s evaluation of the allowance as of September 30, 2013, considers the allowance to be appropriate, under adversely different conditions or assumptions, the Company would need to increase or decrease the allowance.

Acquired Loans and Leases

Acquired loans accounted for under ASC 310-30

For our acquired loans, our allowance for loan losses is estimated based upon our expected cash flows for these loans. To the extent that we experience a deterioration in borrower credit quality resulting in a decrease in our expected cash flows subsequent to the acquisition of the loans, an allowance for loan losses would be established based on our estimate of future credit losses over the remaining life of the loans.

Acquired loans accounted for under ASC 310-20

We establish our allowance for loan losses through a provision for credit losses based upon an evaluation process that is similar to our evaluation process used for originated loans. This evaluation, which includes a review of loans on which full collectability may not be reasonably assured, considers, among other matters, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, historical net loan loss experience, carrying value of the loans, which includes the remaining net purchase discount or premium, and other factors that warrant recognition in determining our allowance for loan losses.

The following tables detail activity in the allowance for loan and lease losses segregated by originated and acquired loan and lease portfolios and by portfolio segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. Allocation of a portion of the allowance to one category of loans does not preclude its availability to absorb losses in other categories.

A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans consist of our non-homogenous nonaccrual loans, and all loans restructured in a troubled debt restructuring (TDR). Specific reserves on individually identified impaired loans that are not collateral dependent are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate of each loan. For loans that are collateral dependent, impairment is measured based on the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs, and such impaired amounts are generally charged off. The majority of impaired loans are collateral dependent impaired loans that have limited exposure or require limited specific reserves because of the amount of collateral support with respect to these loans, and previous charge-offs. Interest payments on impaired loans are typically applied to principal unless collectability of the principal amount is reasonably assured. In these cases, interest is recognized on a cash basis.

Impaired loans are set forth in the tables below as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

Loans are considered modified in a TDR when, due to a borrower’s financial difficulties, the Company makes a concession(s) to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. These modifications may include, among others, an extension for the term of the loan, and granting a period when interest-only payments can be made with the principal payments made over the remaining term of the loan or at maturity.

The following tables present information on loans modified in troubled debt restructuring during the periods indicated.

8. FDIC Indemnification Asset Related to Covered Loans

Certain loans acquired in the VIST Financial acquisition were covered loans with loss share agreements with the FDIC. Under the terms of loss sharing agreements, the FDIC will reimburse the Company for 70 percent of net losses on covered single family assets up to $4.0 million, and 70 percent of net losses incurred on covered commercial assets up to $12.0 million. The FDIC will increase its reimbursement of net losses to 80 percent if net losses exceed the $4.0 million and $12 million thresholds, respectively. The term for loss sharing on residential real estate loans is ten years, while the term for loss sharing on non-residential real estate loans is five years in respect to losses and eight years in respect to loss recoveries.

The receivable arising from the loss sharing agreements (referred to as the “FDIC indemnification asset” on our consolidated statements of financial condition) is measured separately from covered loans because the agreements are not contractually part of the covered loans and are not transferable should the Company choose to dispose of the covered loans. As of the acquisition date with VIST Financial, the Company recorded an aggregate FDIC indemnification asset of $4.4 million, consisting of the present value of the expected future cash flows the Company expected to receive from the FDIC under loss sharing agreements. The FDIC indemnification asset is reduced as loss sharing payments are received from the FDIC for losses realized on covered loans. Actual or expected losses in excess of the acquisition date estimates and accretion of the acquisition date present value discount will result in an increase in the FDIC indemnification asset and the immediate recognition of non-interest income in our financial statements.

A decrease in expected losses would generally result in a corresponding decline in the FDIC indemnification asset and the non-accretable difference. Reductions in the FDIC indemnification asset due to actual or expected losses that are less than the acquisition date estimates are recognized prospectively over the shorter of (i) the estimated life of the applicable covered loans or (ii) the term of the loss sharing agreements with the FDIC.

Changes in the FDIC indemnification asset during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 are shown below. The Company acquired the FDIC indemnification asset as part of the VIST acquisition on August 1, 2012.

9 . Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share in the table below, for the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2013 and 2012 is calculated under the two-class method as required by ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. ASC 260 provides that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The Company has issued restricted stock awards that contain such rights and are therefore considered participating securities. Basic earnings per common share are calculated by dividing net income allocable to common stock by the weighted average number of common shares, excluding participating securities, during the period. Diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential shares from stock compensations awards.

13. Financial Guarantees

The Company currently does not issue any guarantees that would require liability recognition or disclosure, other than standby letters of credit. The Company extends standby letters of credit to its customers in the normal course of business. The standby letters of credit are generally short-term. As of September 30, 2013, the Company’s maximum potential obligation under standby letters of credit was $66.5 million compared to $68.7 million at December 31, 2012. Management uses the same credit policies to extend standby letters of credit that it uses for on-balance sheet lending decisions and may require collateral to support standby letters of credit based upon its evaluation of the counterparty. Management does not anticipate any significant losses as a result of these transactions, and has determined that the fair value of standby letters of credit is not significant.

14. Segment and Related Information

The Company manages its operations through three reportable business segments in accordance with the standards set forth in FASB ASC 280, “Segment Reporting”: (i) banking (“Banking”), (ii) insurance (“Tompkins Insurance Agencies, Inc.”) and (iii) wealth management (“Tompkins Financial Advisors” and “VIST Capital Management”). The Company’s insurance services and wealth management services, other than trust services and the services offered by VIST Capital Management, are managed separately from the Banking segment.

Banking

The Banking segment is primarily comprised of the four banking subsidiaries: Tompkins Trust Company, a commercial bank with fifteen banking offices operated in Ithaca, NY and surrounding communities, The Bank of Castile, a commercial bank with sixteen banking offices conducting operations in the towns situated in and around the areas commonly known as the Letchworth State Park area and the Genesee Valley region of New York State, Mahopac National Bank, a commercial bank operating fifteen full-service banking offices and one limited service office in the counties north of New York City, and VIST Bank, a banking organization containing twenty banking offices headquartered and operating in the areas surrounding southeastern Pennsylvania.

Insurance

The Company provides property and casualty insurance services and employee benefits consulting through Tompkins Insurance Agencies, Inc, a 100% wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, headquartered in Batavia, New York. Tompkins Insurance is an independent insurance agency, representing many major insurance carriers and provides employee benefit consulting to employers in Western and Central New York, assisting them with their medical, group life insurance and group disability insurance. Recently, through the acquisition of VIST Financial, Tompkins Insurance expanded its operations with the addition of VIST Insurance, a full service insurance agency offering a similar array of insurance products as Tompkins Insurance in southeastern Pennsylvania.

Wealth Management

The Wealth Management segment is generally organized under the Tompkins Financial Advisors brand. Tompkins Financial Advisors offers a comprehensive suite of financial services to customers, including trust and estate services, investment management and financial and insurance planning for individuals, corporate executives, small business owners and high net worth individuals. Tompkins Financial Advisors has offices in each of the Company’s three subsidiary banks in New York.

Summarized financial information concerning the Company’s reportable segments and the reconciliation to the Company’s consolidated results is shown in the following table. Investment in subsidiaries is netted out of the presentations below. The “Intercompany” column identifies the intercompany activities of revenues, expenses and other assets between the banking, insurance and wealth management services segments. The Company accounts for intercompany fees and services at an estimated fair value according to regulatory requirements for the services provided. Intercompany items relate primarily to the use of human resources, information systems, accounting and marketing services provided by any of the banks and the holding company. All other accounting policies are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in the 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

15. Fair Value

FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FASB ASC Topic 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Transfers between levels, when determined to be appropriate, are recognized at the end of each reporting period.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC Topic 820 are:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability;

Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

The following table summarizes financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, segregated by the level of valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy used to measure fair value.

The change in the fair value of the $1.0 million of available-for-sale securities valued using significant unobservable inputs (level 3), between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2012 was immaterial.

There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 for the three months ended September 30, 2013.

The Company determines fair value for its trading securities using independently quoted market prices. The Company determines fair value for its available-for-sale securities using an independent bond pricing service for identical assets or very similar securities. The Company has reviewed the pricing sources, including methodologies used, and finds them to be fairly stated.

Fair values of borrowings are estimated using Level 2 inputs based upon observable market data. The Company determines fair value for its borrowings using a discounted cash flow technique based upon expected cash flows and current spreads on FHLB advances with the same structure and terms. The Company also receives pricing information from third parties, including the FHLB. The pricing obtained is considered representative of the transfer price if the liabilities were assumed by a third party. The Company’s potential credit risk did not have a material impact on the quoted settlement prices used in measuring the fair value of the FHLB borrowings at September 30, 2013.

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. For the Company, these include loans held for sale, collateral dependent impaired loans, and other real estate owned (“OREO”). During the third quarter of 2013, certain collateral dependent impaired loans were remeasured and reported at fair value through a specific valuation allowance and/or partial charge-offs for loan and lease losses based upon the fair value of the underlying collateral. Collateral values are estimated using Level 2 inputs based upon observable market data. In addition to collateral dependent impaired loans, certain other real estate owned were remeasured and reported at fair value based upon the fair value of the underlying collateral. The fair values of other real estate owned are estimated using Level 2 inputs based on observable market data or Level 3 inputs based on customized discounting criteria. In general, the fair values of other real estate owned are based upon appraisals, with discounts made to reflect estimated costs to sell the real estate. Upon initial recognition, fair value write-downs on other real estate owned are taken through a charge-off to the allowance for loan and lease losses. Subsequent fair value write-downs on other real estate owned are reported in other noninterest expense.

1 Lease receivables, although excluded from the scope of ASC Topic 825, are included in the estimated fair value amounts at their carrying value.

The following methods and assumptions were used in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS: The carrying amounts reported in the Consolidated Statements of Condition for cash, noninterest-bearing deposits, money market funds, and Federal funds sold approximate the fair value of those assets.

SECURITIES : Fair values for U.S. Treasury securities are based on quoted market prices. Fair values for obligations of U.S. government sponsored entities, mortgage-backed securities-residential, obligations of U.S. states and political subdivisions, and U.S. corporate debt securities are based on quoted market prices, where available, as provided by third party pricing vendors. If quoted market prices were not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments in active markets and/or based upon matrix pricing methodology, which uses comprehensive interest rate tables to determine market price, movement and yield relationships. These securities are reviewed periodically to determine if there are any events or changes in circumstances that would adversely affect their value.

LOANS AND LEASES: The fair values of residential loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based upon available market benchmarks for rates and prepayment assumptions. The fair values of commercial and consumer loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based upon interest rates currently offered for loans and leases with similar terms and credit quality. The fair value of loans held for sale are determined based upon contractual prices for loans with similar characteristics.

FHLB AND FRB STOCK: The carrying amount of FHLB and FRB stock approximates fair value. If the stock is redeemed, the Company will receive an amount equal to the par value of the stock. For miscellaneous equity securities, carrying value is cost.

ACCRUED INTEREST RECEIVABLE AND ACCRUED INTEREST PAYABLE: The carrying amount of these short term instruments approximate fair value.

DEPOSITS: The fair values disclosed for noninterest bearing accounts and accounts with no stated maturities are equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of time deposits is based upon discounted cash flow analyses using rates offered for FHLB advances, which is the Company’s primary alternative source of funds.

SECURITIES SOLD UNDER AGREEMENTS TO REPURCHASE: The carrying amounts of repurchase agreements and other short-term borrowings approximate their fair values. Fair values of long-term borrowings are estimated using a discounted cash flow approach, based on current market rates for similar borrowings. For securities sold under agreements to repurchase where the Company has elected the fair value option, the Company also receives pricing information from third parties, including the FHLB.

OTHER BORROWINGS: The fair values of other borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, discounted at the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate for similar borrowing arrangements. For other borrowings where the Company has elected the fair value option, the Company also receives pricing information from third parties, including the FHLB.

TRUST PREFERRED DEBENTURES: The fair value of the trust preferred debentures has been estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis which uses a discount factor of a market spread over current interest rates for similar instruments.

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

BUSINESS

Corporate Overview and Strategic Initiatives

Tompkins Financial Corporation (“Tompkins” or the “Company”) is a registered financial holding company incorporated in 1995 under the laws of the State of New York and its common stock is listed on the NYSE MKT LLC (Symbol: TMP). Tompkins is headquartered at The Commons, Ithaca, New York. The Company is a locally-oriented, community-based financial services organization that offers a full array of financial products and services, including commercial and consumer banking, leasing, trust and investment services, financial planning and wealth management, insurance and brokerage services. At September 30, 2013, Tompkins subsidiaries included: four wholly-owned community banking subsidiaries, Tompkins Trust Company (the “Trust Company”), The Bank of Castile, Mahopac National Bank and VIST Bank; a wholly-owned registered investment advisor subsidiary, TFA Wealth Management, Inc. (“TFA Wealth Management”), previously known as AM&M Financial Services, Inc.; and a wholly-owned insurance agency subsidiary, Tompkins Insurance Agencies, Inc. (“Tompkins Insurance”). TFA Wealth Management and the trust division of the Trust Company provide a full suite of investment services under the Tompkins Financial Advisors brand, including investment management, trust and estate, financial and tax planning as well as life, disability and long term care insurance services. VIST Bank, through its VIST Capital Management brand provides investment advisory, retirement planning solutions, and brokerage services to our customers in southeastern Pennsylvania. Unless the context otherwise requires, the term “Company” refers collectively to Tompkins Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries.

The Company’s strategic initiatives include diversification within its markets, growth of its fee-based businesses, and growth internally and through acquisitions of financial institutions, branches, and financial services businesses. As such, the Company from time to time considers acquiring banks, thrift institutions, branch offices of banks or thrift institutions, or other businesses within markets currently served by the Company or in other locations that would complement the Company’s business or its geographic reach. The Company generally targets merger or acquisition partners that are culturally similar and have experienced management and possess either significant market presence or have potential for improved profitability through financial management, economies of scale and expanded services. The Company has pursued acquisition opportunities in the past, and continues to review new opportunities.

In the second quarter of 2012, the Company completed a capital raise through a registered public offering of shares of its common stock. The Company believes that this capital raise helped position the Company for future growth, including its acquisition of VIST Financial Corp. (“VIST Financial”), described below. After transaction costs, net proceeds from the capital raise were approximately $38.0 million, and resulted in the issuance of 1,006,250 shares of Tompkins common stock on April 3, 2012.

Acquisitions

On August 1, 2012, Tompkins completed its acquisition of VIST Financial, a financial holding company headquartered in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania, and parent to VIST Bank, VIST Insurance, LLC (“VIST Insurance”), and VIST Capital Management, LLC. On the acquisition date, VIST Financial had $1.4 billion in total assets, $889.3 million in loans, and $1.2 billion in deposits. Following its merger with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tompkins, VIST Financial was merged into Tompkins. VIST Bank, a Pennsylvania state-chartered commercial bank, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tompkins and will continue to operate as a separate subsidiary bank of Tompkins. VIST Insurance was merged into Tompkins Insurance Agencies, Inc., and the VIST Capital Management, LLC business was moved to VIST Bank under the brand name “VIST Capital Management.” The acquisition expands the Company’s presence into the southeastern region of Pennsylvania.

The VIST acquisition was a merger transaction. Under the terms of the merger agreement, each share of VIST Financial common stock was cancelled and converted into the right to receive 0.3127 shares of Tompkins common stock, with any fractional share entitlement paid in cash, resulting in the Company issuing 2,093,689 shares at a fair value of $82.2 million. The Company also paid $1.2 million to retire outstanding VIST Financial employee stock options; while other VIST Financial employee stock options were converted into options to purchase Tompkins’ common stock, with an aggregate fair value of $1.1 million, as of the acquisition date. In addition, immediately prior to the completion of the merger, Tompkins purchased from the United States Department of the Treasury the issued and outstanding shares of VIST Financial Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, as well as the warrant to purchase shares of VIST Financial common stock issued in connection with the issuance of the preferred stock (the “TARP Purchase”), for an aggregate purchase price of $26.5 million. The securities purchased in the TARP Purchase were cancelled in connection with the consummation of the VIST Acquisition.

The VIST Acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed and consideration exchanged were recorded at their estimated fair values as of acquisition date. VIST Financial’s assets and liabilities were recorded at their preliminary estimated fair values as of August 1, 2012, the acquisition date, and VIST Financial’s results of operations have been included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income since that date.

Business Segments

The Company has identified the following three business segments, banking, insurance, and wealth management. Insurance services activities include the results of the Company’s property and casualty insurance services and employee benefits consulting operations. Wealth management activities include the results of the Company’s trust, financial planning, wealth management services and risk management operations. All other activities are considered banking. Information about the Company’s business segments is included in Note 14 “Segment and Related Information,” in the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Business Overview

Banking services consist primarily of attracting deposits from the areas served by the Company’s banking offices and using those deposits to originate a variety of commercial loans, consumer loans, real estate loans (including commercial loans collateralized by real estate), and leases. The Company’s lending function is managed within the guidelines of a comprehensive Board-approved lending policy. Reporting systems are in place to provide management with ongoing information related to loan production, loan quality, concentrations of credit, loan delinquencies, and nonperforming and potential problem loans.

The Company may sell residential real estate loans in the secondary market based on interest rate considerations. These residential real estate loans are generally sold without recourse and in accordance with standard secondary market loan sale agreements. The Company primarily sells loans to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, and retains servicing rights on the sold loans. These residential real estate loans are subject to normal representations and warranties, including representations and warranties related to gross fraud and incompetence. The Company has not had to repurchase any loans as a result of these representations and warranties. The Company reviews the risks in residential real estate lending related to representations and warranties, title issues, and servicing. The Company determined that these risks are immaterial and do not require any reserves on the Company’s statements of condition.

The Company’s principal expenses are interest on deposits, interest on borrowings, and operating and general administrative expenses, as well as provisions for loan and lease losses. Funding sources, other than deposits, include borrowings, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and cash flow from lending and investing activities.

Wealth management consists of providing trust, financial planning, wealth management services and risk management services to individuals and businesses in the Company’s market areas. In 2010, the Company unified the branding of its trust and investment services businesses and began marketing these services under the name “Tompkins Financial Advisors”. Tompkins Financial Advisors has office locations at all three of the Company’s subsidiary banks in New York, and VIST Capital Management has offices at VIST Bank.

Insurance services include property and casualty insurance services, employee benefit consulting, and life, long-term care and disability insurance. Tompkins Insurance is headquartered in Batavia, New York. Over the past twelve years, Tompkins Insurance has acquired smaller insurance agencies in the market areas serviced by the Company’s banking subsidiaries and successfully consolidated them into Tompkins Insurance. As part of the Company’s August 1, 2012 acquisition of VIST Financial, VIST Insurance was merged with and into Tompkins Insurance and nearly doubled annual insurance revenues. Tompkins Insurance offers services to customers of the Company’s banking subsidiaries by sharing offices with The Bank of Castile, Trust Company, and VIST Bank. In addition to these shared offices, Tompkins Insurance has five stand-alone offices in Western New York and two stand-alone offices in Tompkins County, New York and one stand-alone office in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.

Competition

Competition for commercial banking and other financial services is strong in the Company’s market areas. In one or more aspects of its businesses, the Company’s subsidiaries compete with other commercial banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, finance companies, Internet-based financial services companies, mutual funds, insurance companies, brokerage and investment banking companies, and other financial intermediaries. Some of these competitors have substantially greater resources and lending capabilities and may offer service that the Company does not currently provide. In addition, many of the Company’s non-ban competitors are not subject to the same extensive Federal regulations that govern financial holding companies and Federally-insured banks.

Competition among financial institutions is based upon interest rates offered on deposit accounts, interest rates charged on loans and other credit and service charges, the quality and scope of the services rendered, the convenience of facilities and, in the case of the loans to commercial borrowers, relative lending limits. Management believes that a community based financial organization is better positioned to establish personalized financial relationships with both commercial customers and individual households. The Company’s community commitment and involvement in its primary market areas, as well as its commitment to quality and personalized financial services, are factors that contribute to the Company’s competitiveness. Management believes that each of the Company’s subsidiary banks can compete successfully in its primary market areas by making prudent lending decisions quickly and more efficiently than its competitors, without compromising asset quality or profitability, although no assurances can be given that such factors will assure success.

Regulation

Banking, insurance services and wealth management are highly regulated. As a financial holding company with four community banks, a registered investment advisor, and an insurance agency subsidiary, the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to examination and regulation by the Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”), Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”), the New York State Department of Financial Services, Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, and the Pennsylvania Insurance Department.

Other Factors Affecting Performance

Other external factors affecting the Company’s operating results are market rates of interest, the condition of financial markets, and both national and regional economic conditions. The low market interest rates continue to put pressure on the Company’s net interest margin. The Company has offset some of this pressure with strategic deposit pricing and growth in average earning assets. Weak economic conditions beginning in 2008 contributed to increases in the Company’s past due loans and leases, nonperforming assets, and net loan and lease losses, as well as decreases in certain fee-based products and services. The Company has seen some signs of improving economic conditions within the market areas in which it operates, which have contributed to improvement in its credit quality metrics in recent quarters, including decreases in the level of internally classified assets and nonperforming assets. With the strength of the economic recovery uncertain, there is no assurance that these conditions may not adversely affect the credit quality of the Company’s loans and leases, results of operations, and financial condition going forward. Refer to the section captioned “Financial Condition- Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” below for further details on asset quality.

OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The following discussion is intended to provide an understanding of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013. It should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, and the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Forward-Looking Statements

The Company is making this statement in order to satisfy the “Safe Harbor” provision contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not statements of historical fact may include forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements are made based on management’s expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting the Company and are subject to certain uncertainties and factors relating to the Company’s operations and economic environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. These uncertainties and factors that could cause actual results of the Company to differ materially from those matters expressed and/or implied by such forward-looking statements. The following factors are among those that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements: changes in general economic, market and regulatory conditions; the development of an interest rate environment that may adversely affect the Company’s interest rate spread, other income or cash flow anticipated from the Company’s operations, investment and/or lending activities; changes in laws and regulations affecting banks, insurance companies, bank holding companies and/or financial holding companies, such as the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Basel III; technological developments and changes; the ability to continue to introduce competitive new products and services on a timely, cost-effective basis; governmental and public policy changes, including environmental regulation; protection and validity of intellectual property rights; reliance on large customers; financial resources in the amounts, at the times and on the terms required to support the Company’s future businesses; and other factors discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in other reports we file with the SEC, in particular the “Risk Factors” discussed in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. In addition, such forward-looking statements could be affected by general industry and market conditions and growth rates, general economic and political conditions, including interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations, and other factors.

Critical Accounting Policies

The accounting and reporting policies followed by the Company conform, in all material respects, to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and to general practices within the financial services industry. In the course of normal business activity, management must select and apply many accounting policies and methodologies and make estimates and assumptions that lead to the financial results presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. There are uncertainties inherent in making these estimates and assumptions, which could materially affect the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

Management considers accounting estimates to be critical to reported financial results if (i) the accounting estimates require management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain, and (ii) different estimates that management reasonably could have used for the accounting estimate in the current period, or changes in the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, could have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. Management considers the accounting policies relating to the allowance for loan and lease losses (“allowance”), pension and postretirement benefits, the review of the securities portfolio for other-than-temporary impairment, and acquired loans to be critical accounting policies because of the uncertainty and subjectivity involved in these policies and the material effect that estimates related to these areas can have on the Company’s results of operations.

For additional information on critical accounting policies and to gain a greater understanding of how the Company’s financial performance is reported, refer to Note 1 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and the section captioned “Critical Accounting Policies” in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s application of critical accounting policies since December 31, 2012. Refer to Note 3 – “Accounting Standards Updates” in the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of recent accounting updates.

In this Report there are comparisons of the Company’s performance to that of a peer group. Unless otherwise stated, this peer group is comprised of the group of 117 domestic bank holding companies with $3 billion to $10 billion in total assets as defined in the Federal Reserve’s “Bank Holding Company Performance Report” for June 30, 2013 (the most recent report available).

OVERVIEW

Net income for the third quarter was $14.0 million, or $0.95 diluted earnings per share, compared to $3.5 million, or $0.25 diluted earnings per share for the same period in 2012. The third quarter of 2012 included $8.4 million of after-tax merger related expenses. Net income for the first nine months of 2013 was $36.6 million, or $2.50 diluted earnings per share, compared to $20.1 million or $1.63 diluted earnings per share in the first nine months of 2012. Net income for the first nine months of 2013 and 2012 was reduced by after-tax merger expenses of $140,000 and $9.2 million, respectively. Comparisons of the Statements of Income and Statement of Condition to the same periods last year are impacted by the acquisition of VIST Financial Corporation on August 1, 2012.

Return on average assets (“ROA”) for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2013 were 1.10% and 0.99%, respectively, compared to 0.31% for the quarter and 0.70% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Return on average shareholders’ equity (“ROE”) for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013 were 12.83% and 11.07%, respectively, compared to 3.37% and 7.58%, respectively, for the same period in 2012. Tompkins’ second quarter ROA and ROE compare to the most recent peer average ratios of 1.08% and 8.43%, respectively, published, published as of June 30, 2013 by the Federal Reserve, ranking Tompkins’ ROA in the 45 th percentile and ROE in the 62nd percentile of the peer group.

The Company’s operating (Non-GAAP) net income for the third quarter was $13.2 million, or $0.90 diluted per share, compared to $11.9 million, or $0.87 diluted per share for the third quarter of 2012. The Company’s operating (Non-GAAP) net income was $35.9 million, or $2.45 diluted per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $29.1 million or $2.36 diluted per share for the same period in 2012. Operating (Non-GAAP) income excludes after-tax merger and acquisition integration expense of, $0 and $8.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively and $140,000 and $9.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2013, respectively. In addition, operating (Non-GAAP) income for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, excludes an after-tax gain of $846,000 on the redemption of a Trust Preferred debenture. Operating (Non-GAAP income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, excludes an after-tax benefit of $246,000 related to a reversal of an accrual for VISA litigation.

The following table summarizes our results of operations for the periods indicated on a GAAP basis and on an operating (non-GAAP) basis for the periods indicated. Our operating results exclude the merger and acquisition integration expenses. The Company believes this non-GAAP measure provides a meaningful comparison of our underlying operational performance and facilitates managements’ and investors’ assessments of business and performance trends in comparison to others in the financial services industry. In addition, the Company believes the exclusion of the nonoperating items from our performance enables management and investors to perform a more effective evaluation and comparison of our results and to assess performance in relation to our ongoing operations (in thousands). These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a measure of the Company’s profitability or liquidity; they are in addition to, and are not a substitute for, financial measures under GAAP. Net operating income and adjusted diluted earnings per share as presented herein may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Further, the Company may utilize other measures to illustrate performance in the future. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations since they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.

Segment Reporting

The Company operates in the following three business segments, banking, insurance, and wealth management. Insurance is comprised of property and casualty insurance services and employee benefit consulting operated under the Tompkins Insurance Agencies, Inc. subsidiary. Wealth management activities include the results of the Company’s trust, financial planning, and wealth management services, and risk management operations organized under the Tompkins Financial Advisors brand. All other activities are considered banking.

Banking Segment

The banking segment reported net income of $12.4 million for the third quarter of 2013, up $2.0 million or 18.9% from net income of $10.5 million for the same period in 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the banking segment reported net income of $31.6 million, up $6.2 million or 24.2% from 2012. The acquisition of VIST Bank contributed to the increases over prior periods measured.

Net interest income of $40.4 million for the third quarter and $118.4 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013 was up 10.2% and 28.5%, respectively, over the same periods in 2012. Growth in average earning assets and lower funding costs more than offset the lower asset yields and contributed to favorable year-over-year comparisons. Net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was 3.60% compared to 3.57% for the same period prior year.

The provision for loan and lease losses totaled $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and $1.0 million for the same period in 2012. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2013, provision expense increased $2.4 million compared to the same period last year. The increase in provision expense was largely attributable to the acquired loan portfolio and was mainly related to one large commercial relationship.

Noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2013 of $8.0 million was up $2.3 million or 40.9% compared to the same period in 2012. For the first nine months of 2013, noninterest income of $20.4 million was up $4.2 million or 25.5%. The main drivers behind the increase in year to date noninterest income included: a $1.4 million pre-tax gain on the redemption of a Trust Preferred debenture acquired as part of the VIST acquisition; service charges on deposit accounts (up $820,000); card services income (up $810,000); mark-to-market gains on liabilities held at fair value (up $405,000); and income from a Small Business Investment Company “SBIC” (up $279,000). These increases were due in large part to the VIST acquisition. Partially offsetting these items were mark-to-market losses on trading securities (up $274,000) and gains on sale of securities (down $99,000), mainly a result of market conditions.

Noninterest expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 were up $4.2 million or 16.3% from the same period in 2012. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2013, noninterest expense increased $22.1 million or 33.3%. Merger-related expenses of $13.8 million for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, were excluded in calculating the growth rate between 2013 and 2012. Most expense categories increased over the same period last year, reflecting the operational costs of a larger organization with the inclusion of VIST Bank.

Insurance Segment

The insurance segment reported net income of $901,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, up $121,000 or 15.5% from the third quarter of 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, net income was up $1.1 million or 65.0% from the same period of 2012. Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2013 was up $1.4 million or 24.9% and up $8.6 million or 67.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the same periods in 2012. Commercial and personal insurance lines, in addition to life and health insurance commissions experienced the most growth in revenues for both periods in 2013 compared to the same periods last year. Noninterest expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2013, were up $1.2 million or 26.9% compared to the third quarter of 2012. For the nine months ending September 30, 2013, noninterest expenses increased $6.7 million or 68.0% over the previous year. Salaries and benefits costs were the largest contributors to the increase in noninterest expense compared to the same periods last year. Increases in noninterest income and noninterest expense were mainly attributed to the addition of VIST Insurance pursuant to the VIST Financial acquisition. The operating results of VIST Insurance have been consolidated into the operating results of Tompkins Insurance Agencies, Inc.

Wealth Management Segment

The wealth management segment reported net income of $708,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, up $89,000 or 14.4% compared to the third quarter of 2012 and increased $642,000 or 45.1% for the first nine months of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2013 was $3.9 million; up $85,000 or 2.2% compared to the prior year and for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013 was up $602,000 or 5.4% over the same nine month period of 2012. The increase in noninterest income compared to the first nine months of 2012 is mainly a result of an increase in investment management and brokerage income which benefited from the growth in assets under management and improved market conditions. Noninterest expenses for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2013, were down $70,000 or 2.4% and $454,000 or 4.9% compared to the same periods of 2012, mainly a result of lower marketing expenses and lower external broker commission payouts. The 2013 results include VIST Capital Management, which was acquired as part of the VIST Financial acquisition.

Interest income includes the tax effects of taxable-equivalent adjustments using a combined New York State and Federal effective income tax rate of 40% to increase tax exempt interest income to taxable-equivalent basis.

(3)

Nonaccrual loans are included in the average asset totals presented above. Payments received on nonaccrual loans have been recognized as disclosed in Note 1 of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statement included in Part 1 of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the Company’s largest source of revenue, representing 68.6% and 69.3% of total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to 71.3% and 70.2%, respectively, for the same periods in 2012. Net interest income was up for both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 over the same periods in 2012; however, the growth in noninterest income, the other component of revenue, exceeded the growth in net interest income, resulting in the decrease in the current period ratios from prior year periods. Net interest income is dependent on the volume and composition of interest earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the level of market interest rates. The historically low interest rate environment has resulted in lower asset yields and lower funding costs in 2013 compared to 2012. The Company has been able to lessen the impact of lower asset yields with growth in average earning assets as well as increasing the loan portfolio as a percentage of average earnings assets. The Company has been able to reduce its funding costs by growing its deposit base, including the balances of noninterest bearing deposits, and replacing maturing FHLB borrowings with lower cost funding.

The above table shows average interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and the corresponding yield or cost associated with each. The taxable equivalent net interest margin was 3.63% for the three month period ended September 30, 2013 and 3.60% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013, compared to 3.66% and 3.57%, respectively, for the same periods in 2012. Taxable-equivalent net interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $41.4 million and $121.4 million, respectively, up 10.3% and 28.8% when compared to the same periods in 2012. The acquisition of VIST Financial on August 31, 2012 contributed significantly to the increase in average earnings assets and net interest income in 2013 over 2012.

Taxable-equivalent interest income for the third quarter of 2013 was $47.3 million, up 8.2% when compared to the same quarter in 2012. Taxable-equivalent interest income for the nine months ending September 30, 2013 was $139.7 million, up 25.2% from $111.6 million for the first nine months of 2012. The increase in taxable equivalent interest income for the quarter and year-to-date period ended September 30 2013, was mainly a result of the $1.3 billion in earning assets acquired in the acquisition of VIST Financial in August 2012. Average earning assets for the third quarter and the first nine months of 2013 are up 10.9% and 27.7%, respectively, over the same periods in 2012. This increase in average balances was partially offset by a decline in the yield on average earning assets. The yields on average earning assets were down 12 basis points and 7 basis points for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 compared to the same periods in 2012. Average earning asset yields were impacted by the low rate environment as cash flows from existing higher yielding assets are reinvested at lower rates. The impact of the lower market rates on the overall yield on average earning assets in the third quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 was partially offset by the mix of earning assets acquired in the VIST acquisition, which was more heavily weighted in loans than securities. Average loan balances for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 were up $455.4 million or 17.4% and $831.0 million or 37.9%, respectively. Average loan balances represented about 67.8% and 67.2% of average earning assets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, up from 64.1% and 62.2%, respectively, for the same periods in 2012. Average loan yields were down 18 and 24 basis points in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2012. Average securities balances for the third quarter of 2013 were up $2.8 million or 0.2% over average balances in the third quarter of 2012, while average yields were down 18 basis points. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 average securities balances increased $162,000 or 12.5% from the same period in 2012, while yields declined 29 basis points.

Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $5.9 million and $18.3 million, respectively, down by 4.4% and up by 5.8% when compared to the same periods in 2012, reflecting an increase in interest bearing liabilities, largely deposits of $1.2 billion, acquired from VIST Bank, partially offset by lower average rates paid on deposits and borrowings. The VIST Bank acquisition impacted 2012 for only two months for the three and nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, whereas the impact to 2013 was for the full three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013. Average interest-bearing deposit balances for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, were up by $255.7 million or 8.3% and $782.3 million or 24.6%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2012. The average rate paid on interest bearing deposits during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was 0.40% and 0.41%, respectively, down 4 basis points and 6 basis points from the average rates paid during the same periods in 2012. The rates paid were lower across all deposit categories, including interest bearing checking, savings and money market accounts and time deposit. Total funding costs also benefitted from the growth in average noninterest bearing deposit balances. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, average noninterest bearing deposits of $814.9 million and $790.6 million were up 12.1% and 22.4%, respectively, over the same periods in 2012. At the time of acquisition, VIST Bank had noninterest bearing balances of $129.5 million. Other borrowings were up $142.9 million or 110.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to the third quarter of 2012; however, the average cost of 1.81% for the third quarter of 2013 is down considerably from the 4.21% for the third quarter of 2012.

Provision for Loan and Lease Losses

The provision for loan and lease losses represents management’s estimate of the amount necessary to maintain the allowance for loan and lease losses at an adequate level. The provision for loan and lease losses was $2.0 million for the third quarter of 2013 and $5.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $1.0 million and $3.2 million for the respective periods in 2012. The year-over-year increase in provision expense was mainly in the acquired loan portfolio and was primarily related to one large commercial relationship that was partially charged off in the second quarter of 2013. The section captioned “Financial Condition-Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses and Nonperforming Assets” below has further details on the allowance for loan and lease losses and asset quality metrics.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income totaled $18.5 million and $52.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared with $14.8 million and $39.2 million for the same periods in 2012. Noninterest income represented 31.4% and 30.7% of total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to 28.7% and 29.8% for the same periods in 2012. Noninterest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 included a pre-tax gain of $1.4 million on the redemption of a Trust Preferred debenture acquired as part of the VIST acquisition.

Insurance commissions and fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased by $1.4 million and $8.4 million or 23.7% and 63.7% as compared to the same periods in 2012. The acquisition of VIST Insurance contributed $1.2 million and $7.7 million, respectively, to the increase over the prior year periods. Revenues for commercial insurance lines, personal insurance lines, and health and benefit related insurance products were up for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the same periods in 2012.

Investment services income was $3.7 million in third quarter of 2013, an increase of 2.2% from $3.6 million in the third quarter of 2012. Investment services income totaled $11.2 million for the first nine months of 2013, up 6.4% over the same period in 2012 . The increase was mainly attributed to changes in the pricing structure of brokerage related fees instituted in the second quarter of 2012, increases in assets under management and the VIST Financial acquisition. Investment services income includes trust services, financial planning, wealth management services, and brokerage related services. With fees largely based on the market value and the mix of assets managed, the general direction of the stock market can have a considerable impact on fee income. The fair value of assets managed by, or in custody of, Tompkins was $3.4 billion at September 30, 2013, up 3.0% from $3.3 billion at September 30, 2012. These figures include $921.8 million and $1.0 billion, respectively, of Company-owned securities where Tompkins Financial Advisors is custodian. The increase in fair value of assets also reflects successful business development initiatives resulting in customer retention and the impact of the VIST Financial acquisition.

Service charges on deposit accounts were up $266,000 or 13.4% for the third quarter of 2013 compared to the third quarter of 2012 and up $820,000 or 15.3% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013 compared to the same period in the prior year. The largest component of this category is overdraft fees, which is largely driven by customer activity. The increase over the prior year is primarily due to the addition of VIST Bank. However, all four of the Company’s banking subsidiaries reported an increase in service charges on deposit accounts for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to the same periods in 2012.

Card services income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was up $231,000 or 15.4% and $810,000 or 18.6% over the same periods in 2012. The increase was mainly in debit card income and was due to the acquisition of VIST Bank. Favorable trends in the number of cards issued and transaction volume have been partially offset by lower interchange fees as a result of regulatory changes.

Net mark-to-market gains on securities and borrowings held at fair value totaled $32,000 in the third quarter of 2013, compared to net mark-to-market losses of $68,000 in the third quarter of 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, net mark-to-market gains totaled $71,000 compared to mark-to-market losses of $60,000 for the comparable period in 2012. Mark-to-market losses or gains related to the change in the fair value of trading securities and certain borrowings where the Company has elected the fair value option are unrealized amounts primarily impacted by changes in interest rates.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recognized $281,000 and $723,000 in gains on sales of available-for-sale securities, compared to $112,000 in losses and $822,000 in gains for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. Sales of available-for-sale securities are generally the result of general portfolio maintenance and interest rate risk management. The gains recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2013, included $94,000 of gains related to the sale of three non-agency bonds, which had previously been determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

Other income was $3.4 million for the third quarter of 2013 as compared to $2.1 million for the same quarter in 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 other income was $7.5 million, up $2.4 million or 31.8% from 2012. The significant components of other income are other service charges, increases in cash surrender value of corporate owned life insurance (“COLI”), gains on the sales of residential mortgage loans, FDIC indemnification asset accretion and income from miscellaneous equity investments, including the Company’s investment in a Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”). Other income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 included a pre-tax gain of $1.4 million on the redemption of a Trust Preferred debenture acquired as part of the VIST acquisition. Most other income categories were up in 2013 over the same periods last year due to the VIST Financial acquisition. The second quarter of 2012 included $405,000 in pre-tax income related to the reversal of an accrued liability related to the settlement of litigation between VISA Inc. and certain merchants.

Net gains on sale of residential mortgage loans, included in other income on the consolidated statements of income, of $115,000 in the third quarter of 2013 were down by $214,000 or 65.0% compared to the third quarter of 2012. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2013 net gains on the sale of mortgage loans was $212,000, down $367,000 or 63.4% from the same period in 2012. The decrease in gains on sale of residential mortgage loans is mainly due to lower sales volumes, reflecting a decision to hold certain loans in the portfolio rather than sell them in the secondary market. To manage interest rate risk exposures, the Company from time to time sells certain fixed rate loan originations that have rates below or maturities greater than the standards set by the Company’s Asset/Liability Committee for loans held in the portfolio.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense was $37.6 million for the third quarter of 2013, down $8.6 million or 18.7% compared to the same period of the prior year and was $112.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, up $13.4 million or 13.5% from $99.4 million for the first nine months of 2012. The year-over-year increase was largely the result of the acquisition of VIST Financial. The decrease for the three month period was the result of $13.8 million of merger related expenses that were included in the three month period ended September 30, 2012. The three month period ended September 30, 2013 did not include any merger related expenses.

Salaries and wages expense increased by $2.9 million or 20.6% in the third quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, salaries and wages were up $12.3 million or 34.0% over the prior year period. The increase is mainly a result of the additional employees acquired in the VIST acquisition. In addition, annual merit increases and higher accruals for business development activities affected salaries and wages. Pension and other employee benefits were up $780,000 or 16.2%, and $3.8 million or 28.4% for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2013, mainly a result of the VIST Financial acquisition. Lower market interest rates have contributed to the increase in the cost of pension and other postretirement benefit plans. Healthcare insurance is also up over the prior year as a result of additional employees and an increase in annual premiums.

Net occupancy expense was $2.9 million for the third quarter of 2013, up $378,000 or 15.3% from the same period in 2012 and was $8.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, up $2.8 million or 46.0% from the same period in 2012. The acquisition of VIST Financial contributed to the increase in net occupancy expense for the quarter and year-to date period ended September 30, 2013.

Other operating expenses were $9.5 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2013, up by $930,000 or 10.8% compared to the same period in 2012. Other operating expenses were $29.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, an increase of $6.8 million or 29.7% compared to the prior year period. The acquisition of VIST Financial contributed to this year-over-year increase in other expenses. The third quarter of 2013 included $431,000 of amortization of a historic tax credit investment. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in other real estate owned expense as the Company was able to recapture some expense as a result of the resolution of a large other real estate owned property. Please see “Note 12. Other income and operating expense” for more detail on the changes within other operating expenses.

Income Tax Expense

The provision for income taxes provides for Federal and New York State income taxes. The provision for income taxes was $5.3 million for an effective rate of 27.4% for the third quarter of 2013, compared to tax expense of $761,000 and an effective rate of 17.8% for the same quarter in 2012. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2013, the tax provision was $15.9 million for an effective rate of 30.2%, compared to tax expense of $8.7 million and an effective rate of 30.0% for the same period in 2012. The third quarter 2013 tax expense and effective rate were favorably impacted by the recognition of the tax benefit of an historic tax credit investment. The third quarter of 2012 was impacted by merger expenses in the quarter. The effective rates differ from the U.S. statutory rate of 35.0% during the comparable periods primarily due to the effect of tax-exempt income from loans and securities, life insurance assets, and investments in tax credits.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets were $4.9 billion at September 30, 2013, up $95.2 million or 2.0% over December 31, 2012, and flat compared to September 30, 2012. The growth over year-end was mainly in originated loans, net of unearned income and deferred costs and fees, which were up $287.6 million or 13.5%. This was offset by declines in acquired loans ($122.9 million or 15.0%), available-for-sale securities ($34.4 million or 2.5%) and cash and cash equivalents ($30.4 million or 25.5%). Total deposits were up less than 1.0% compared to year end, as increases in interest bearing checking, savings, and money market balances of $74.8 million or 3.5% and $15.5 million or 1.9% increases noninterest bearing deposits were mainly offset by a $67.7 million or 7.0% decrease in time deposits. Other borrowings, consisting mainly of short term advance with the FHLB, were up $130.3 million or 116.5% from year-end. The VIST acquisition provided total deposits of $1.2 billion on acquisition date.

Securities

As of September 30, 2013, total securities were $1.4 billion or 28.2% of total assets, compared to $1.4 billion or 29.6% of total assets at year-end 2012, and $1.5 billion or 30.8% at September 30, 2012. The following table details the composition of securities available-for-sale and securities held-to-maturity.

Total held-to-maturity debt securities	$	19,773	$	20,403	$	24,062	$	25,163

The decrease in the fair value of the available-for-sale portfolio was due to the changes in interest rates during the third quarter of 2013. The rise in interest rates during the quarter resulted in a decrease in the unrealized gains in the available-for-sale portfolio. Management’s policy is to purchase investment grade securities that on average have relatively short duration, which helps mitigate interest rate risk and provides sources of liquidity without significant risk to capital. The decrease in the held-to-maturity portfolio was due to maturities and calls during the year.

The Company has no investments in preferred stock of U.S. government sponsored entities and no investments in pools of Trust Preferred securities. Quarterly, the Company evaluates all investment securities with a fair value less than amortized cost to identify any other-than-temporary impairment as defined under generally accepted accounting principles.

As a result of the impairment review process, the Company does not consider the remaining non-agency CMO held at September 30, 2013 to be other-than-temporarily impaired. Future changes in interest rates or the credit quality and credit support of the underlying issuers may reduce the market value of these and other securities. If such decline is determined to be other than temporary, the Company will record the necessary charge to earnings and/or accumulated other comprehensive income to reduce the securities to their then current fair value.

The Company maintains a trading portfolio with a fair value of $11.5 million as of September 30, 2013, compared to $16.5 million at December 31, 2012. The decrease in the trading portfolio reflects maturities or payments during 2013. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, net mark-to-market losses related to the securities trading portfolio were $472,000, compared to net mark-to-market losses of $198,000 for the same period in 2012.

Loans and Leases

Loans and leases at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were as follows:

Total loans and leases at September 30, 2013 were up $164.7 million or 5.6% from December 31, 2012. Increases in commercial and industrial, commercial real estate, and residential mortgages were partially offset by declines in agricultural, construction and consumer loans. As of September 30, 2013 total loans and leases represented 63.2% of total assets compared to 61.1% of total assets at December 31, 2012.

Residential real estate loans, including home equity loans at September 30, 2013 increased by $70.5 million or 8.2% from year-end 2012, and comprised 29.7% of total loans and leases at September 30, 2013. The growth in residential real estate loan balances reflects higher origination volumes due to the low interest rate environment, as well as a decision to retain certain residential mortgages in portfolio rather than sell them in the secondary market due to interest rate considerations. The Company’s Asset/Liability Committee meets regularly and establishes standards for selling and retaining residential real estate mortgage originations.

Prior to August 2012, any residential real estate loans that were sold were generally sold to Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”) or State of New York Mortgage Agency (“SONYMA”). With the acquisition of VIST on August 1, 2012, the Company also sells loans to other third parties, including money center banks. Residential real estate loans are generally sold without recourse in accordance with standard secondary market loan sale agreements and are also subject to customary representations and warranties made by the Company, including representations and warranties related to gross incompetence and fraud. The Company has not had to repurchase any loans as a result of these general representations and warranties. While in the past in rare circumstances the Company agreed to sell residential real estate loans with recourse, the Company has not done so in the past several years and the amount of such loans included on the Company’s balance sheet at September 30, 2013 is insignificant. The Company has never had to repurchase a loan sold with recourse.

During the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, the Company sold residential mortgage loans totaling $6.9 million and $25.1 million, respectively, and realized gains on these sales of $212,000 and $579,000, respectively. These residential real estate loans were sold without recourse in accordance with standard secondary market loan sale agreements. When residential mortgage loans are sold, the Company typically retains all servicing rights, which provides the Company with a source of fee income. Mortgage servicing rights, at amortized basis, totaled $1.0 million at September 30, 2013 down from $1.2 million at December 31, 2012.

The Company has not originated any hybrid loans, such as payment option ARMs. The Company underwrites residential real estate loans in accordance with secondary market standards in effect at the time of origination, including loan-to-value (“LTV”) and documentation requirements. The Company does not underwrite low or reduced documentation loans other than those that meet secondary market standards for low or reduced documentation loans. In those instances, W-2’s and paystubs are used instead of sending Verification of Employment forms to employers to verify income and bank deposit statements are used instead of Verification of Deposit forms mailed to financial institutions to verify deposit balances.

Commercial real estate loans increased by $84.8 million or 6.5% compared to December 31, 2012, and represented 44.5% of total loans as of September 30, 2013. Commercial and industrial loans at September 30, 2013, increased by $24.2 million or 3.5% compared to December 31, 2012. As of September 30, 2013, agriculturally-related loans totaled $111.2 million or 3.6% of total loans and leases, down from $129.3 million or 4.4% of total loans and leases at December 31, 2012. Agriculturally-related loans include loans to dairy farms and cash and vegetable crop farms. Agriculturally related loans are primarily made based on identified cash flows of the borrower with consideration given to underlying collateral, personal guarantees, and government related guarantees. Agriculturally-related loans are generally secured by the assets or property being financed or other business assets such as accounts receivable, livestock, equipment or commodities/crops.

The consumer loan portfolio includes personal installment loans, indirect automobile financing, and overdraft lines of credit. Consumer and other loans at September 30, 2013, were down $3.6 million or 6.0% from December 31, 2012. The decrease is mainly in indirect automobile loans and reflects increased competition.

The lease portfolio increased by 10.5% to $5.1 million at September 30, 2013 from $4.6 million at December 31, 2012. The lease portfolio has traditionally consisted of leases on vehicles for consumers and small businesses. Management continues to review leasing opportunities, primarily commercial leasing and municipal leasing.

The acquired loans in the above table reflect loans acquired in the acquisition of VIST Financial during the third quarter of 2012. The acquired loans were recorded at fair value pursuant to the purchase accounting guidelines in FASB ASC 805 – “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (as determined by the present value of expected future cash flows) with no valuation allowance (i.e., the allowance for loan losses). Upon acquisition, the Company evaluated whether each acquired loan (regardless of size) was within the scope of ASC 310-30, “Receivables – Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality”.

The carrying value of acquired loans acquired and accounted for in accordance with ASC Subtopic 310-30, “Receivables Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality,” was $58.2 million at September 30, 2013, as compared to $92.3 million at the acquisition date of August 1, 2012, and the net reduction reflects payments. Under ASC Subtopic 310-30, loans may be aggregated and accounted for as pools of loans if the loans being aggregated have common risk characteristics. The Company elected to account for the loans with evidence of credit deterioration individually rather than aggregate them into pools. The difference between the undiscounted cash flows expected at acquisition and the investment in the acquired loans, or the “accretable yield,” is recognized as interest income utilizing the level-yield method over the life of each loan. Contractually required payments for interest and principal that exceed the undiscounted cash flows expected at acquisition, or the “non-accretable difference,” are not recognized as a yield adjustment, as a loss accrual or as a valuation allowance.

Increases in expected cash flows subsequent to the acquisition are recognized prospectively through an adjustment of the yield on the loans over the remaining life. Subsequent decreases to the expected cash flows require us to evaluate the need for an addition to the allowance for loan losses. Valuation allowances (recognized in the allowance for loan losses) on these impaired loans reflect only losses incurred after the acquisition (representing all cash flows that were expected at acquisition but currently are not expected to be received).

The carrying value of loans not exhibiting evidence of credit impairment at the time of the acquisition (i.e. loans outside of the scope of ASC 310-30) was $640.4 million at September 30, 2013. The fair value of the acquired loans not exhibiting evidence of credit impairment was determined by projecting contractual cash flows discounted at risk-adjusted interest rates.

The carrying value of the acquired loans reflects management’s best estimate of the amount to be realized from the acquired loan and lease portfolios. However, the amounts the Company actually realizes on these loans could differ materially from the carrying value reflected in these financial statements, based upon the timing of collections on the acquired loans in future periods, underlying collateral values and the ability of borrowers to continue to make payments.

Purchased performing loans were recorded at fair value, including a credit discount. Credit losses on acquired performing loans are estimated based on analysis of the performing portfolio. The purchased performing portfolio also included a general interest rate mark (premium). Both the credit discount and interest rate mark are accreted/amortized as a yield adjustment over the estimated lives of the loans. Interest is accrued daily on the outstanding principal balance of purchased performing loans.

At September 30, 2013, acquired loans included $27.4 million of covered loans. VIST Financial had acquired these loans in an FDIC assisted transaction in the fourth quarter of 2010. In accordance with loss sharing agreements with the FDIC, certain losses and expenses relating to covered loans may be reimbursed by the FDIC at 70% or, if certain levels of reimbursement are reached, 80%. See Note 8 – “FDIC Indemnification Asset Related to Covered Loans” in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The Company has adopted comprehensive lending policies, underwriting standards and loan review procedures. Management reviews these policies and procedures on a regular basis. The Company discussed its lending policies and underwriting guidelines for its various lending portfolios in Note 6 – “Loans and Leases” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. There have been no significant changes in these policies and guidelines. As such, these policies are reflective of new originations as well as those balances held at September 30, 2013. The Company’s Board of Directors approves the lending policies at least annually. The Company recognizes that exceptions to policy guidelines may occasionally occur and has established procedures for approving exceptions to these policy guidelines. Management has also implemented reporting systems to monitor loan originations, loan quality, concentrations of credit, loan delinquencies and nonperforming loans and potential problem loans.

The Company’s loan and lease customers are located primarily in the New York and Pennsylvania communities served by its four subsidiary banks. Although operating in numerous communities in New York State and Pennsylvania, the Company is still dependent on the general economic conditions of these states. Other than geographic and general economic risks, management is not aware of any material concentrations of credit risk to any industry or individual borrower.

The Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

Originated Loans and Leases

Management reviews the appropriateness of the allowance for loan and lease losses (“allowance”) on a regular basis. Management considers the accounting policy relating to the allowance to be a critical accounting policy, given the inherent uncertainty in evaluating the levels of the allowance required to cover credit losses in the portfolio and the material effect that assumptions could have on the Company’s results of operations. The Company has developed a methodology to measure the amount of estimated loan loss exposure inherent in the loan portfolio to assure that an appropriate allowance is maintained. The Company’s methodology is based upon guidance provided in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 102, Selected Loan Loss Allowance Methodology and Documentation Issues and allowance allocations are calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 310, Receivables and ASC Topic 450, Contingencies .

The Company’s methodology for determining and allocating the allowance for loan and lease losses focuses on ongoing reviews of larger individual loans and leases, historical net charge-offs, delinquencies in the loan and lease portfolio, the level of impaired and nonperforming loans, values of underlying loan and lease collateral, changes in anticipated cash flows of acquired loans, the overall risk characteristics of the portfolios, changes in character or size of the portfolios, geographic location, current economic conditions, changes in capabilities and experience of lending management and staff, and other relevant factors. The various factors used in the methodologies are reviewed on a regular basis.

At least annually, management reviews all commercial and commercial real estate loans exceeding a certain threshold and assigns a risk rating. The Company uses an internal loan rating system of pass credits, special mention loans, substandard loans, doubtful loans, and loss loans (which are fully charged off). The definitions of “special mention”, “substandard”, “doubtful” and “loss” are consistent with banking regulatory definitions. Factors considered in assigning loan ratings include: the customer’s ability to repay based upon the customer’s expected future cash flow, operating results, and financial condition; value of the underlying collateral, if any; and the economic environment and industry in which the customer operates. Special mention loans have potential weaknesses that if left uncorrected may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects and a downgrade to a more severe risk rating. A substandard loan credit has a well-defined weakness which makes payment default or principal exposure likely, but not yet certain. There is a possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. A doubtful loan has a high possibility of loss, but the extent of the loss is difficult to quantify because of certain important and reasonably specific pending factors.

At least quarterly, management reviews all commercial and commercial real estate loans and leases and agriculturally related loans with an outstanding principal balance of over $500,000 that are internally risk rated as special mention or worse, giving consideration to payment history, debt service payment capacity, collateral support, strength of guarantors, local market trends, industry trends, and other factors relevant to the particular borrowing relationship. Through this process, management identifies impaired loans. For loans and leases considered impaired, estimated exposure amounts are based upon collateral values or present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the original effective rate of each loan. For commercial loans, commercial mortgage loans, and agricultural loans not specifically reviewed, and for homogenous loan portfolios such as residential mortgage loans and consumer loans, estimated exposure amounts are assigned based upon historical net loss experience and current charge-off trends, past due status, and management’s judgment of the effects of current economic conditions on portfolio performance.

Since the methodology is based upon historical experience and trends as well as management’s judgment, factors may arise that result in different estimations. Significant factors that could give rise to changes in these estimates may include, but are not limited to, changes in economic conditions in the local area, concentration of risk, changes in interest rates, and declines in local property values. Based on its evaluation of the allowance as of September 30, 2013, management considers the allowance to be appropriate. Under adversely different conditions or assumptions, the Company would need to increase or decrease the allowance.

As of September 30, 2013, the total allowance for loan and lease losses was $26.4 million, up $1.8 million from $24.6 million at year end 2012. Both the originated and acquired allowances were up over year-end. The increase in the originated allowance was mainly driven by the 13.5% growth in originated loans and leases from year-end 2012, as well as the increase in nonperforming loans during the third quarter. The increase in the acquired allowance reflects some deterioration in specific loans as well as an increase in the level of nonperforming loans. Nonperforming originated loans increased by $2.9 million from year-end 2012.

Originated loans internally-classified as Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful totaled $80.0 million at September 30, 2013, down from $101.4 million at December 31, 2012 and $113.0 million at September 30, 2012. The decrease is mainly due to upgrades of risk ratings in our commercial, commercial real estate and agriculture loan portfolios as a result of improving financial conditions of our commercial and agricultural customers. While the overall strength of the economy remains uncertain, there are signs of improvement in national and local economic conditions, which have contributed to some improvements in the financial conditions of several of the Company’s commercial and agricultural customers. In addition to upgrades, there were a few large charge-offs in the fourth quarter of 2012 that have contributed to the decrease in total internally classified originated loans and leases since the third quarter of 2012. The increase in the allocation for commercial and industrial loans was mainly a result of growth in the portfolio over year end 2012, an increase in nonperforming loans and specific allocations for a few impaired commercial loans. The increase in reserve allocations for commercial real estate loans was mainly due to growth in the portfolio over year-end 2012. Reserve allocations for residential real estate loans were up over year-end 2012, primarily as a result of growth in the portfolio and an increase in past due and nonperforming loans.

The amount of acquired loans internally-classified as Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful totaled $66.4 million at September 30, 2013, down from $70.6 million at year-end 2012. Loan pay downs and the movement of loans to other real estate owned have contributed to the decrease from year-end. Nonaccrual loans in the acquired portfolio increased from $4.4 million at year-end 2012 to $8.0 million at September 30, 2013.

Activity in the Company’s allowance for loan and lease losses during the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 is illustrated in the table below.

There was no allowance, charge-offs, or recoveries for acquired loans accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 805 for the periods ending December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2012.

Net loan and lease charge-offs totaled $1.1 million and $3.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $1.3 million and $4.1 million for the same periods in 2012. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the originated loan portfolio had net charge-offs of $630,000 and $246,000, compared to $1.3 million and $4.1 million for the same periods in the prior year. A partial recovery of $1.2 million was recognized in the second quarter of 2013 on a large commercial loan that was charged off during 2012. The acquired loan portfolio had net charge-offs of $468,000 and $3.6 million, respectively. The net charge-offs in the acquired portfolio were mainly related to one large commercial relationship that was written down to fair value in the second quarter.

The provision for loan and lease losses was $2.0 million and $5.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $1.0 million and $3.2 million for the same periods in 2012. The year-over-year increase in provision expense was mainly in the acquired loan portfolio and was primarily related to one large commercial relationship that was partially charged off in the second quarter of 2013. The provision for originated loans and leases was $1.5 million and $1.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to $1.0 million and $3.2 million for the same periods in 2012. The year to date 2013 provision was favorably impacted by a large recovery in the second quarter of 2013, which led to a recapture of provision expense for that quarter. The provision expense for the third quarter reflects growth in the loan portfolio as well as an increase in nonperforming loans. The provision for acquired loans and leases was $0.5 million and $4.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013. The provision expense for acquired loans reflects some deterioration in expected cash flows on some loans subsequent to the acquisition of the loans as well as an increase in nonperforming loans in the acquired portfolio.

1 The September 30, 2013, December 31, 2012, and September 30, 2012 columns in the above table exclude $13.5 million, $18.7 million, and $22.2 million, respectively, of acquired loans that are 90 days past due and accruing interest. These loans were originally recorded at fair value on the acquisition date of August 1, 2012. These loans are considered to be accruing as we can reasonably estimate future cash flows on these acquired loans and we expect to fully collect the carrying value of these loans. Therefore, we are accreting the difference between the carrying value of these loans and their expected cash flows into interest income.
2 Nonaccrual loans at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 include $8.0 million and $4.4 million, respectively, of nonaccrual acquired loans. There were no acquired nonaccrual loans at September 30, 2012.

Nonperforming assets include nonaccrual loans, troubled debt restructurings (“TDR”), and foreclosed real estate/other real estate owned. Nonperforming assets represented 1.00% of total assets at September 30, 2013, compared to 0.92% at December 31, 2012, and 0.88% at September 30, 2012. The increase in nonperforming assets at September 30, 2013 compared to December 31, 2012 was mainly a result of $1.4 million of loans moving into other real estate owned and an increase of $3.7 million in the acquired nonperforming loans and leases. Although nonperforming assets increased compared to year end, the Company’s ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets continues to compare favorably to our peer group’s most recent ratio of 1.88% at June 30, 2013.

Total nonperforming loans represented 1.38% of total loans at September 30, 2013, compared to 1.34% of total loans at December 31, 2012, and 1.32% of total loans at September 30, 2012. A breakdown of nonperforming loans by portfolio segment is shown above. Commercial real estate loans represent the largest component of nonperforming loans. Nonperforming commercial real estate loans include two relationships totaling $9.6 million at September 30, 2013 and $10.0 million at December 31, 2012. Both of these relationships are considered impaired and have been charged down to fair value.

Loans past due 30-89 days and accruing interest increased from $13.3 million at December 31, 2012 to $20.2 million at September 30, 2013. Originated loans past due 30-89 days and accruing interest increased by $4.2 million to $12.2 million, while acquired loans past due 30-89 days and accruing increased by $2.8 million to $8.0 million at September 30, 2013. The increase in the originated portfolio was mainly one commercial relationship totaling $3.1 million, which is 90% guaranteed by a U.S. government agency. The increase in the acquired portfolio was mainly due to a commercial real estate loan totaling $2.7 million which became past due in the third quarter.

Loans are considered modified in a TDR when, due to a borrower’s financial difficulties, the Company makes a concession(s) to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider and the borrower could not obtain elsewhere. These modifications may include, among others, an extension of the term of the loan, and granting a period when interest-only payments can be made, with the principal payments made over the remaining term of the loan or at maturity. TDRs are included in the above table within the following categories: “loans 90 days past due and accruing”, “nonaccrual loans”, or “troubled debt restructurings not included above”. Loans in the latter category include loans that meet the definition of a TDR but are performing in accordance with the modified terms and therefore classified as accruing loans. As mentioned above, the decrease in this category from year-end 2012 reflects the payoff of the $1.5 million loan included at year-end. At September 30, 2013 the Company had $10.0 million in TDRs and all were reported as nonaccrual, with the exception of one loan totaling $46,000, and included in the table above.

In general, the Company places a loan on nonaccrual status if principal or interest payments become 90 days or more past due and/or management deems the collectability of the principal and/or interest to be in question, as well as when required by applicable regulations. Although in nonaccrual status, the Company may continue to receive payments on these loans. These payments are generally recorded as a reduction to principal, and interest income is recorded only after principal recovery is reasonably assured.

The Company’s recorded investment in loans and leases that are considered impaired totaled $33.9 million at September 30, 2013, and $24.7 million at December 31, 2012. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans consist of our non-homogenous nonaccrual loans, and all TDRs. Specific reserves on individually identified impaired loans that are not collateral dependent are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate of each loan. For loans that are collateral dependent, impairment is measured based on the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs, and such impaired amounts are generally charged off.

The year-to-date average recorded investment in impaired loans and leases was $31.3 million at September 30, 2013, $29.5 million at December 31, 2012, and $31.2 million at September 30, 2012. At September 30, 2013 there was a specific reserve of $849,000 on impaired loans compared to $0 specific reserves at December 31, 2012 and $2.5 million of specific reserves at September 30, 2012. The specific reserve of $849,000 reported at September 30, 2013 is related to four loans with balances totaling $1.4 million. The majority of impaired loans are collateral dependent impaired loans that have limited exposure or require limited specific reserve because of the amount of collateral support with respect to these loans and previous charge-offs. Interest payments on impaired loans are typically applied to principal unless collectability of the principal amount is reasonably assured. In these cases, interest is recognized on a cash basis.

The ratio of the allowance to nonperforming loans (loans past due 90 days and accruing, nonaccrual loans and restructured troubled debt) was 61.2 times at September 30, 2013, down from 62.3 times in December 31, 2012, and 69.1 times at September 30, 2012. The Company’s nonperforming loans are mostly made up of collateral dependent impaired loans requiring little to no specific allowance due to the level of collateral available with respect to these loans and/or previous charge-offs. The Company’s peer group ratio was 108.59% as of June 30, 2013.

Management reviews the loan portfolio continuously for evidence of potential problem loans and leases. Potential problem loans and leases are loans and leases that are currently performing in accordance with contractual terms, but where known information about possible credit problems of the related borrowers causes management to have doubt as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the present loan payment terms and may result in such loans and leases becoming nonperforming at some time in the future. Management considers loans and leases classified as Substandard, which continue to accrue interest, to be potential problem loans and leases. The Company, through its internal loan review function, identified 27 commercial relationships from the originated portfolio and 22 commercial relationships from the acquired portfolio totaling $12.1 million and $11.8 million, respectively at September 30, 2013 that were potential problem loans. At December 31, 2012, the Company had identified 42 relationships totaling $25.4 million in the originated portfolio and 49 relationships totaling $30.2 million in the acquired portfolio that were potential problem loans. Of the 27 commercial relationships in the originated portfolio that were Substandard, there were 3 relationships that equaled or exceeded $1.0 million, which in aggregate totaled $6.6 million, the largest of which is $2.1 million. Of the 22 commercial relationships from the acquired loan portfolio, there were 3 relationships that equaled or exceeded $1.0 million, which in aggregate totaled $5.8 million, the largest of which is $2.7 million. The Company continues to monitor these potential problem relationships; however, management cannot predict the extent to which continued weak economic conditions or other factors may further impact borrowers. These loans remain in a performing status due to a variety of factors, including payment history, the value of collateral supporting the credits, and personal or government guarantees. These factors, when considered in the aggregate, give management reason to believe that the current risk exposure on these loans does not warrant accounting for these loans as nonperforming. However, these loans do exhibit certain risk factors, which have the potential to cause them to become nonperforming. Accordingly, management’s attention is focused on these credits, which are reviewed on at least a quarterly basis.

Total equity was $444.3 million at September 30, 2013, an increase of $2.9 million or 0.7% from December 31, 2012. The increase reflects growth in retained earnings and additional paid-in capital; partially offset by an increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Additional paid-in capital increased by $8.6 million, from $334.6 million at December 31, 2012, to $343.3 million at September 30, 2013. The increase is primarily attributable to a $3.8 million increase for the exercise of stock options, $3.0 million related to shares issued for dividend reinvestment, $1.0 million related to stock-based compensation, and $715,000 for the issuance of shares under the employee stock ownership plan. Retained earnings increased by $20.0 million from $108.7 million at December 31, 2012, to $128.7 million at September 30, 2013, reflecting net income of $36.6 million less dividends paid of $16.6 million. Accumulated other comprehensive loss increased from a net unrealized loss of $2.1 million at December 31, 2012 to a net unrealized loss of $27.8 million at September 30, 2013, reflecting a $26.9 million decrease in unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities due to market rates, and a $1.2 million increase related to postretirement benefit plans. Under regulatory requirements, amounts reported as accumulated other comprehensive income/loss related to net unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale securities and the funded status of the Company’s defined benefit post-retirement benefit plans do not increase or reduce regulatory capital and are not included in the calculation of risk-based capital and leverage ratios.

Cash dividends paid in the first nine months of 2013 totaled approximately $16.6 million, representing 45.3% of year to date 2013 earnings. Cash dividends of $1.14 per common share paid in the first nine months of 2013 were up 5.6% over cash dividends of $1.08 per common share paid in the first nine months of 2012.

The Company and its banking subsidiaries are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by Federal banking agencies. The table below reflects the Company’s capital position at September 30, 2013, compared to the regulatory capital requirements for “well capitalized” institutions.

REGULATORY CAPITAL ANALYSIS
September 30, 2013	Actual					Well Capitalized Requirement
(dollar amounts in thousands)	Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio
Total Capital (to risk weighted assets)	$	427,901		13.32	%	$	321,290		10.00	%
Tier 1 Capital (to risk weighted assets)	$	401,073		12.48	%	$	192,774		6.00	%
Tier 1 Capital (to average assets)	$	401,073		8.37	%	$	239,625		5.00	%

As illustrated above, the Company’s capital ratios on September 30, 2013 remain above the minimum requirements for well capitalized institutions. Total capital as a percent of risk weighted assets increased from 12.9% as of December 31, 2012 to 13.3% at September 30, 2013. Tier 1 capital as a percent of risk weighted assets increased from 12.1% at the end of 2012 to 12.5% as of September 30, 2013. Tier 1 capital as a percent of average assets was 8.4% at September 30, 2013 up from 7.9% at year end December 31, 2012.

During the first quarter of 2010, the OCC notified the Company that it was requiring Mahopac National Bank (“Mahopac”), one of the Company’s four banking subsidiaries, to maintain certain minimum capital ratios at levels higher than those otherwise required by applicable regulations. The OCC was requiring Mahopac to maintain a Tier 1 capital to average assets ratio of 8.0%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital to risk-weighted capital ratio of 10.0% and a Total risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 12.0%. Mahopac exceeded these minimum requirements at the time of the notification and continues to maintain ratios above these minimums. During the first quarter of 2013, the Company was notified by the OCC that it was no longer requiring Mahopac to maintain the higher capital ratios agreed to in 2010.

As of September 30, 2013, the capital ratios for the Company’s other subsidiary banks also exceeded the minimum levels required to be considered well capitalized.

On July 9, 2013, the FDIC’s Board of Directors approved an interim final capital rule titled: Regulatory Capital Rules: Regulatory Capital, Implementation of Basel III, Capital Adequacy, Transition Provisions, Prompt Corrective Action, Standardized Approach for Risk-weighted Assets, Market Discipline and Disclosure Requirements, Advanced Approaches Risk-Based Capital Rule, and Market Risk Capital Rule. The interim final rule makes several key changes to the regulatory capital framework that are effective for community banks beginning on January 1, 2015, with some items phasing in over a period of time. The primary focus of the new capital rule is to strengthen the quality and loss-absorbency of regulatory capital so as to enhance banks’ abilities to continue functioning as financial intermediaries, including during periods of financial stress. Provided below is a brief overview of some key aspects of the new rule. The Company is currently reviewing the key provisions of the new rule to determine its potential impact on its capital ratios.

As required under Dodd-Frank, the new rules add a new capital ratio, a “common equity tier 1 capital ratio” (CET1). The primary difference between this ratio and the current tier 1 leverage ratio is that only common equity will qualify as tier 1 capital under the new ratio. The new CET1 ratio also will include most elements of accumulated other comprehensive income, including unrealized securities gains and losses, as part of both total regulatory capital (numerator) and total assets (denominator), although community banks are given the opportunity to make a one-time irrevocable election to include or not to include certain elements of other comprehensive income, most notably unrealized securities gains or losses.

In addition to setting higher minimum capital ratios, the new rules, introduce a new concept, a so-called “capital conservation buffer” (set at 2.5%), which must be added to each of the minimum capital ratios (which by themselves are somewhat higher than the current minimum ratios). The capital conservation buffer will be phased-in over five years. When, during economic downturns, an institution’s capital begins to erode, the first deductions from a regulatory perspective would be taken against the conservation buffer. To the extent that buffer should erode below the required level, the bank would not necessarily be required to replace the capital deficit immediately but would face restrictions on paying dividends and other negative consequences until it did so.

The final rules eliminated the proposed phase-out over 10 years of TRUPs as tier 1 capital for banks, such as Tompkins, that have less than $15 billion in total assets. Under the final rule, grandfathered TRUPs, such as Tompkins’ outstanding TRUP’s, would continue to qualify as tier 1 capital until they mature or are redeemed, up to a limit of 25% of tier 1 capital (for grandfathered TRUP’s and other grandfathered tier 1 capital components).

The following is a summary of the capital definitions for community banks:

Common Equity Tier 1 Capital: The sum of common stock instruments and related surplus net of treasury stock, retained earnings, accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI), and qualifying minority interests, minus applicable regulatory adjustments and deductions. Such deductions will include AOCI, if the organization exercises its irrevocable option not to include AOCI in capital. Mortgage-servicing assets, deferred tax assets, and investments in financial institutions are limited to 15 percent of CET1 in the aggregate and 10 percent of CET1 for each such item individually.

Additional Tier 1 Capital: The sum of noncumulative perpetual preferred stock, tier 1 minority interests, grandfathered TRUPs, and Troubled Asset Relief Program instruments, minus applicable regulatory adjustments and deductions.

Tier 2 Capital: The sum of subordinated debt and preferred stock, total capital minority interests not included in Tier 1, allowance for loan and lease losses (not exceeding 1.25 percent of risk-weighted assets) minus applicable regulatory adjustments and deductions.

Deposits and Other Liabilities

Total deposits of $4.0 billion at September 30, 2013 increased $22.6 million or 0.6% from December 31, 2012. The increase from year-end 2012 was comprised mainly of increases in noninterest bearing checking and money market savings and interest bearing checking deposit accounts.

Total deposits were down $66.2 million or 1.6% compared with September 30, 2012. VIST Bank had total deposits of $1.2 billion as of the acquisition date of August 1, 2012. The decline from the third quarter of 2012 is due mainly to a $149.7 million decrease in time deposits, partially offset by increases in non interest bearing deposits of $52.7 million and money market savings of $30.8 million and represents a planned shift by the Company to lower cost funding sources.

The most significant source of funding for the Company is core deposits. Prior to December 31, 2011, the Company defined core deposits as total deposits less time deposits of $100,000 or more, brokered deposits and municipal money market deposits. A provision of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) made permanent an increase in the maximum amount of FDIC deposit insurance for financial institutions to $250,000 per depositor. That maximum had been $100,000 per depositor until 2009, when it was temporarily raised to $250,000. As a result of the permanently increased deposit insurance coverage, effective December 31, 2011, the Company defines core deposits as total deposits less time deposits of $250,000 or more (formerly $100,000), brokered deposits and municipal money market deposits.

Core deposits increased $120.9 million to $3.4 billion compared to $3.2 billion at year-end 2012. Core deposits represented 84.8% of total deposits at September 30, 2013, compared to 82.2% of total deposits at December 31, 2012.

Municipal money market savings and interest bearing checking accounts of $637.5 million at September 30, 2013 increased from $553.2 million at year-end 2012. As compared to September 30, 2012, municipal money market savings accounts and interest bearing checking accounts were up by $205.0 million or 47.3% at September 30, 2103. In general, there is a seasonal pattern to municipal deposits starting with a low point during July and August. Account balances tend to increase throughout the fall and into the winter months from tax deposits and the company receives an additional inflow at the end of March from the electronic deposit of state funds.

The Company uses both retail and wholesale repurchase agreements. Retail repurchase agreements are arrangements with local customers of the Company, in which the Company agrees to sell securities to the customer with an agreement to repurchase those securities at a specified later date. Retail repurchase agreements totaled $39.4 million at September 30, 2013, and $65.4 million at December 31, 2012. Management generally views local repurchase agreements as an alternative to large time deposits. The Company’s wholesale repurchase agreements are primarily with the FHLB and amounted to $122.7 million at September 30, 2013, which includes $32.7 million of wholesale repurchase agreements from the VIST Financial acquisition payable to another large financial institution. By comparison, wholesale repurchase agreements totaled $148.5 million at December 31, 2012.

The Company’s other borrowings totaled $242.2 million at September 30, 2013, up $130.3 million or 116.5% from $111.8 million at December 31, 2012. Borrowings at September 30, 2013 included $142.9 million in FHLB overnight advances, $81.3 million of FHLB term advances, and an $18.0 million advance from a bank. Borrowings at year-end 2012 included $91.8 million of FHLB term advances, and a $20.0 million advance from a bank. The increase in short term borrowings reflects an increase in funding to support loan growth. Of the $81.3 million in FHLB term advances at September 30, 2013, $61.4 million are due over one year. In 2007, the Company elected the fair value option under FASB ASC Topic 825 for a $10.0 million advance with the FHLB. The fair value of this advance decreased by $543,000 (net mark-to-market gain of $543,000) over the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Liquidity

The objective of liquidity management is to ensure the availability of adequate funding sources to satisfy the demand for credit, deposit withdrawals, and business investment opportunities. The Company’s large, stable core deposit base and strong capital position are the foundation for the Company’s liquidity position. The Company uses a variety of resources to meet its liquidity needs, which include deposits, cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, cash flow from lending and investing activities, repurchase agreements, and borrowings. The Company’s Asset/Liability Management Committee monitors asset and liability positions of the Company’s subsidiary banks individually and on a combined basis. The Committee reviews periodic reports on liquidity and interest rate sensitivity positions. Comparisons with industry and peer groups are also monitored. The Company’s strong reputation in the communities it serves, along with its strong financial condition, provides access to numerous sources of liquidity as described below. Management believes these diverse liquidity sources provide sufficient means to meet all demands on the Company’s liquidity that are reasonably likely to occur.

Core deposits, discussed above under “Deposits and Other Liabilities”, are a primary and low cost funding source obtained primarily through the Company’s branch network. In addition to core deposits, the Company uses non-core funding sources to support asset growth. These non-core funding sources include time deposits of $250,000 or more, brokered time deposits, national deposit listing services, municipal money market deposits, bank borrowings, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and term advances from the FHLB. Rates and terms are the primary determinants of the mix of these funding sources. Non-core funding sources, at September 30, 2013, decreased by $19.8 million or 1.9% from $1.0 billion at December 31, 2012. Non-core funding sources, as a percentage of total liabilities, were 22.5% at September 30, 2013, compared to 23.4% at December 31, 2012. The decrease in non-core funding sources was mainly due to a decrease in brokered deposits.

Non-core funding sources may require securities to be pledged against the underlying liability. Securities carried at $1.1 billion and $986.8 million at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, were either pledged or sold under agreements to repurchase. Pledged securities represented 79.3% of total securities at September 30, 2013, compared to 68.8% of total securities at December 31, 2012.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $88.6 million as of September 30, 2013, down from $118.9 million at December 31, 2012. Short-term investments, consisting of securities due in one year or less, decreased from $53.1 million at December 31, 2012, to $37.6 million on September 30, 2013. The Company also had $11.5 million of securities designated as trading securities at September 30, 2013.

Cash flow from the loan and investment portfolios provides a significant source of liquidity. These assets may have stated maturities in excess of one year, but have monthly principal reductions. Total mortgage-backed securities, at fair value, were $706.4 million at September 30, 2013 compared with $712.4 million at December 31, 2012. Outstanding principal balances of residential mortgage loans, consumer loans, and leases totaled approximately $994.9 million at September 30, 2013 as compared to $796.7 million at December 31, 2012. Aggregate amortization from monthly payments on these assets provides significant additional cash flow to the Company.

Liquidity is enhanced by ready access to national and regional wholesale funding sources including Federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements, brokered certificates of deposit, and FHLB advances. Through its subsidiary banks, the Company has borrowing relationships with the FHLB and correspondent banks, which provide secured and unsecured borrowing capacity. At September 30, 2013, the unused borrowing capacity on established lines with the FHLB was $1.3 billion. As members of the FHLB, the Company’s subsidiary banks can use certain unencumbered mortgage-related assets to secure additional borrowings from the FHLB. At September 30, 2013, total unencumbered residential mortgage loans of the Company were $368.9 million. Additional assets may also qualify as collateral for FHLB advances upon approval of the FHLB.

The Company has not identified any trends or circumstances that are reasonably likely to result in material increases or decreases in liquidity in the near term.

The Company continues to evaluate the potential impact on liquidity management of regulatory proposals, including Basel III and those required under the Dodd-Frank Act, as they continue to progress through the final rule-making process.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

Interest rate risk is the primary market risk category associated with the Company’s operations. Interest rate risk refers to the volatility of earnings caused by changes in interest rates. The Company manages interest rate risk using income simulation to measure interest rate risk inherent in its on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet financial instruments at a given point in time. The simulation models are used to estimate the potential effect of interest rate shifts on net interest income for future periods. Each quarter, the Company’s Asset/Liability Management Committee reviews the simulation results to determine whether the exposure of net interest income to changes in interest rates remains within levels approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Committee also considers strategies to manage this exposure and incorporates these strategies into the investment and funding decisions of the Company. The Company does not currently use derivatives, such as interest rate swaps, to manage its interest rate risk exposure, but may consider such instruments in the future.

The Company’s Board of Directors has set a policy that interest rate risk exposure will remain within a range whereby net interest income will not decline by more than 10% in one year as a result of a 100 basis point parallel change in rates. Based upon the simulation analysis performed as of September 30, 2013 a 200 basis point parallel upward change in interest rates over a one-year time frame would result in a one-year decrease in net interest income from the base case of approximately 0.86%, while a 100 basis point parallel decline in interest rates over a one-year period would result in an decrease in one-year net interest income from the base case of 0.78%. The simulation assumes no balance sheet growth and no management action to address balance sheet mismatches.

If rates rise in a parallel fashion (+200BP/over 12 months, or +400BP/over 24 months), net interest income is expected to trend slightly below the base assumption, as upward adjustments to rate sensitive deposits and short-term funding outpace increases to asset yields which are concentrated in intermediate to longer-term products. Once market rates stabilize, increases to funding costs dissipate while asset yields continue to cycle higher. As a result, net interest income improves for the remainder of the projection period.

Although the simulation model is useful in identifying potential exposure to interest rate movements, actual results may differ from those modeled as the repricing, maturity, and prepayment characteristics of financial instruments may change to a different degree than modeled. In addition, the model does not reflect actions that management may employ to manage the Company’s interest rate risk exposure. The Company’s current liquidity profile, capital position, and growth prospects, offer a level of flexibility for management to take actions that could offset some of the negative effects of unfavorable movements in interest rates. Management believes the current exposure to changes in interest rates is not significant in relation to the earnings and capital strength of the Company.

In addition to the simulation analysis, management uses an interest rate gap measure. The table below is a Condensed Static Gap Report, which illustrates the anticipated repricing intervals of assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2013. The Company’s one-year net interest rate gap was a negative $285.6 million or 5.79% of total assets at September 30, 2013, compared with a negative $72.4 million or 1.50% of total assets at December 31, 2012. A negative gap position exists when the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing exceeds the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or repricing within a particular time period. This analysis suggests that the Company’s net interest income is moderately more vulnerable to an increasing rate environment than it is to a prolonged declining interest rate environment. An interest rate gap measure could be significantly affected by external factors such as a rise or decline in interest rates, loan or securities prepayments, and deposit withdrawals.
