Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Organization
 
On September 4, 2009, Hometown Bankshares Corporation (the “Company”) acquired all outstanding stock of Hometown Bank (the “Bank”) in an exchange for shares of the Registrant on a one-for-one basis to become a single-bank holding company with the Bank becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Bank was organized and incorporated under the laws of the State of Virginia on November 9, 2004 and commenced operations on November 14, 2005. The Bank currently serves Roanoke City, Virginia, the County of Roanoke, Virginia, the City of Salem, Virginia, Christiansburg, Virginia, and surrounding areas. As a state chartered bank which is a member of the Federal Reserve System, the Bank is subject to regulation by the Virginia Bureau of Financial Institutions, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Federal Reserve Board.
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2013 and for the periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 included herein, have been prepared by HomeTown Bankshares Corporation, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Management believes that all interim adjustments for the period ended March 31, 2013 are of a normal recurring nature.  The first quarter of 2012 included the recognition of cumulative deferred tax assets. The amount of the net tax benefit recognized in the first quarter was a non-recurring, cumulative adjustment that included the net tax benefit generated from years prior to 2012.  Management believes that all other interim adjustments for 2012 and 2013 were of a normal recurring nature. In the opinion of management, the information furnished in the interim consolidated financial statements reflects all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for such interim periods. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the notes thereto as of December 31, 2012, included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
 
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company follow generally accepted accounting principles and general practices within the financial services industry.
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary HomeTown Bank. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions associated with the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary have been eliminated.
 
Our accounting policies and basic principles have not changed since the summary disclosure of these in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.  Please refer to the Form 10-K for these policies. 
 
Beginning with the first quarter of 2013, the Company changed the methodology of how historical loss rates were analyzed in the calculation of the allowance for loan losses.  The revised calculation and application of historical loss rates impacted the calculation of the allowance for loan losses.  Under the former methodology, the previous two calendar years and an annualized current calendar year of losses were analyzed and applied to the loans collectively evaluated for impairment.  The former calculation would have resulted in a total allocation of $1,871,000.  Under the revised methodology, a rolling three years of losses are analyzed and applied to the loans collectively evaluated for impairment, resulting in an allocation of $2,451,000.  Consistent with accounting guidance, prior periods have not been restated and are shown as originally published using the segments and classes in effect for the period.

U.S. Government and federal agency securities. The unrealized losses on 9 of the Company’s investments in obligations of the U.S. government were caused by increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the securities were purchased.  The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost bases of the investments. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2013.
 
Mortgage-backed securities. The unrealized losses in 5 of the Company’s investments in government-sponsored entity mortgage-backed securities were caused by increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the securities were purchased. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Company does not intend to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2013.
 
Municipal securities. The unrealized losses on the Company’s 14 investments in obligations of municipal securities were caused by increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the securities were purchased. All municipal securities are investment grade. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates, credit spreads, ratings and not credit quality, and because the Company does not intend to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2013.
 
The following tables demonstrate the unrealized loss position of securities available for sale at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

Included in certain loan categories are troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”). At March 31, 2013 and at December 31, 2012, there were 3 loans classified as TDRs totaling $6.5 million.  One TDR was classified as a substandard non-accruing loan at March 31, 2013 and at the end of 2012.  The loan is not past due, and the outstanding balance of this loan was $189 thousand and $199 thousand at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.  The valuation allowance related to total TDRs was $137 thousand at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012, no loans were modified as a TDR.
  
Management considers troubled debt restructurings and subsequent defaults in restructured loans in the determination of the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for loan losses. When identified as a TDR, a loan is evaluated for potential loss based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the estimated fair value of the collateral, less any selling costs if the loan is collateral dependent.  Loans identified as TDRs frequently are on non-accrual status at the time of the restructuring and, in some cases, partial charge-offs may have already been taken against the loan or a specific allowance may have already been established for the loan.  As a result of any modification as a TDR, the specific reserve associated with the loan may be increased. Additionally, loans modified in a TDR are closely monitored for delinquency as an early indicator of possible future defaults. If loans modified in a TDR subsequently default, the Company evaluates the loan for possible further impairment. As a result, any specific allowance may be increased, adjustments may be made in the allocation of the total allowance balance, or partial charge-offs may be taken to further write-down the carrying value of the loan. Management exercises significant judgment in developing estimates for potential losses associated with TDRs.  No loans restructured in the twelve months prior to March 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012 have subsequently defaulted.

Note 6. Stock Based Compensation

The Company has a 2005 Stock Option Plan (the Plan) pursuant to which the Company’s Board of Directors may grant stock options to directors, officers and employees. The Plan authorizes grants of options to purchase up to 550,000 shares of the Company’s authorized but unissued common stock. Accordingly, options for the purchase of 437,690 shares of authorized common stock have been issued under the Plan and 112,310 shares of authorized common stock are available for issue under the Plan.  There are options for 437,690 shares granted currently outstanding as of March 31, 2013, of which, all options are vested. All stock options have been granted with an exercise price equal to the stock’s fair market value at the date of the grant.  As of March 31, 2013, no options have been exercised. The Company recorded compensation expense of $7 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and $7 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The aggregate intrinsic value of outstanding stock options was $0 at March 31, 2013. The weighted average remaining contractual term of outstanding options was 3.12 years at March 31, 2013. No options were granted in the three months ended March 31, 2013 or 2012.
 
The Board of Directors adopted a Restricted Stock Plan (the Plan) in September 2009 whereby 120,000 shares of the Company’s authorized but unissued common stock was set aside to be granted by the Company’s Board of Directors at its discretion. The principal purpose of the Plan was to make shares available for issue to the executive officers of the Company and the Bank in payment of incentives earned under the Incentive Compensation Plan. 

The restrictions attached to stock issued under the Plan provide for vesting over a five-year period. During the first quarter of 2013, the Company issued 7,781 shared of stock under the Plan, and in the same period of 2012, the Company issued 20,971 shares of stock under the Plan.
  
The remaining unamortized compensation expense for restricted stock was $136 thousand at March 31, 2013 and will be recognized over the next 4.9 years. All compensation expense for stock options has been recognized.

Note 7. Fair Value Measurement
 
The Company uses a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy based on these two types of inputs are as follows:
 
Level 1-Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
 
Level 2-Valuation is based on observable inputs including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in less active markets, and model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions can be derived primarily from or corroborated by observable data in the market.
 
Level 3-Valuation is based on model-based techniques that use one or more significant inputs or assumptions that are unobservable in the market.
 
The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements:
 
Securities available for sale: Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar securities by using pricing models that consider observable market data (Level 2).
 
Derivative assets: Derivative assets are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar assets by using pricing models that consider observable market data (Level 2).
 
Derivative liabilities: Derivative liabilities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar liabilities by using pricing models that considers observable market data (Level 2).

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or writedowns of individual assets.
 
The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the financial statements:
 
Impaired Loans: The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time a loan is considered impaired and a specific reserve is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures the extent of any loss. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value, and discounted cash flow. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investment in such loans. Impaired loans where an allowance is established based on the fair value of collateral require classification in the fair value hierarchy.  If carried at market price based on a recent appraised value using observable market data, it is recorded as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraisal value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the impaired loan as nonrecurring Level 3.
 
Other Real Estate Owned (OREO): The carrying amount of real estate owned by the Company resulting from foreclosures is estimated at the fair value of the real estate based on an observable market price or a current appraised value less selling costs. If carried at market price based on a recent appraised value using observable market data, it is recorded as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or is not current, or management determines the fair value of the real estate is further impaired below the appraised value or there is no observable market price, the Company records the real estate as nonrecurring Level 3.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Cash and due from banks: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheet for cash on hand and amounts due from correspondent banks approximate their fair values. The fair values for certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates of deposit to a schedule of aggregated contractual maturities on such time deposits.
 
Federal funds sold: Federal funds sold consist of overnight loans to other financial institutions and mature within one to three days. At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, management believes the carrying value of federal funds sold approximates estimated market value.
 
Available-for-sale securities: Fair values for securities, excluding restricted equity securities, are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.
 
Restricted equity securities: For these restricted equity securities, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the redemption provisions of the related securities.
 
Loans receivable: For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying amounts. The fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality.
 
Deposit liabilities: The fair values disclosed for demand and savings deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair values for certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates of deposit to a schedule of aggregated contractual maturities on such time deposits.
  
Short term borrowings: Short term borrowings consist of overnight borrowings and mature within one to three days. At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, management believes the carrying value of securities sold under agreements to repurchase approximates estimated market value.
 
FHLB borrowings: The fair values for long term borrowings are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on long term borrowings to the contractual maturities on such long term borrowings.
 
Accrued interest: The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and payable approximates fair value.
 
 
17

 
 
Off-balance sheet financial instruments: The fair values of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements. At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair value of loan commitments and standby letters of credit were deemed to be immaterial.

The carrying amounts and approximate fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

HomeTown Bankshares makes forward-looking statements in this report. These forward-looking statements may include: statements of goals, intentions, earnings expectations, and other expectations; estimates of risks and of future costs and benefits; assessments of probable loan and lease losses; assessments of market risk; and statements of the ability to achieve financial and other goals. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “outlook,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project” and other similar words and expressions. Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. The Company does not assume any duty and does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements. Because forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions and uncertainties, actual results or future events could differ, possibly materially, from those that the Company anticipated in its forward-looking statements, and future results could differ materially from historical performance.
 
The Company’s forward-looking statements are subject to the following principal risks and uncertainties: general economic conditions and trends, either nationally or locally; conditions in the securities markets; changes in interest rates; changes in deposit flows, and in the demand for deposit, loan, and investment products and other financial services; changes in real estate values; changes in the quality or composition of the Company’s loan or investment portfolios; changes in competitive pressures among financial institutions or from non-financial institutions; the Company’s ability to retain key members of management; changes in legislation, regulation, and policies; and a variety of other matters which, by their nature, are subject to significant uncertainties. The Company provides greater detail regarding some of these factors in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. The Company’s forward-looking statements may also be subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those that it may discuss elsewhere in this report or in its other filings with the SEC.

The following is a discussion of factors that significantly affected the financial condition and results of operations of HomeTown Bankshares Corporation. This discussion should be read in connection with the financial statements presented herein.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
The Company’s significant accounting policies are set forth in Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements in the Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2012. The Company’s financial position and results of operations are affected by management’s application of accounting policies, including estimates, assumptions and judgments made to arrive at the carrying value of assets and liabilities and amounts reported for revenues and expenses.
 
The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in our loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and are capable of estimation and (ii) that losses on impaired loans be accrued based on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or values that are observable in the secondary market and the loan balance. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level, which, in management’s judgment, is adequate to absorb credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio.
 
The amount of the allowance is based on management’s evaluation of the collectability of the loan portfolio, including the nature of the portfolio, credit concentrations, trends in historical loss experience, specific impaired loans, economic conditions, and other risks inherent in the portfolio. Management reviews the past due reports and risk-rated loans and discusses individually the loans on these reports with the responsible loan officers. Management uses these tools and provides a detailed quarterly analysis of the allowance based on our historical loan loss experience, risk-rated loans, past dues, concentrations of credit, unsecured loans, loan exceptions, and the economic trend. These are generally grouped by homogeneous loan pools. Allowances for impaired loans are generally determined based on collateral values or the present value of estimated cash flows. This allowance, then, is designated as a specific reserve. Although management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, because of uncertainties associated with local economic conditions, collateral values, and future cash flows on impaired loans, it is reasonably possible that a material change could occur in the allowance for loan losses in the near term. However, the amount of the change that is reasonably possible cannot be estimated. The allowance is increased by a provision for loan losses, which is charged to expense, and reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Changes in the allowance relating to impaired loans are charged or credited to the provision for loan losses. Past due status is determined based on contractual terms.

Discussion of Operations
 
Three Months Ended March 31, 2013
 
Net income for the first quarter of 2013 totaled $525 thousand compared to $3.4 million for the same quarter last year.  Net income was less because 2012 included a one-time favorable adjustment of $2.9 million for the recognition of cumulative net deferred tax assets since inception through year end 2011. Net income before taxes was $787 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2013, $129 thousand or 20% higher than the same period in 2012.  Favorable variances in net interest income, provision for loan losses, and noninterest income were partially offset by higher noninterest expense.  Net income available to common shareholders was $372 thousand or $0.11 per share for the first quarter of 2013.  Excluding the aforementioned impact ($.90 per share) of the recognition of prior year net deferred tax assets in 2012, net income available to common shareholders was $0.09 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Net interest income was $3.3 million for the first quarter of 2013, and approximated the previous quarter and was $202 thousand or 6.5% higher than the same quarter a year ago.  The tax equivalent net interest margin was 3.87%, 3.84%, and 3.77% for the three months ended, March 31, 2013, December 31, 2012, and March 31, 2012, respectively.  During 2012, the interest rate spread between earning assets and interest bearing liabilities was widened by lowering rates paid on interest bearing deposits to be more consistent with market rates and more in line with the lower rates on loans in the current low interest rate environment. The slowdown in the rate of increase in the margin reflects that with interest rates already at historically low rates, the lowering of interest rates paid on interest bearing deposits that occurred during 2012 did not continue into 2013. Interest rates are expected to remain at the current low levels through 2015, and will continue to compress the interest rate spread between earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.  Maturing time deposits will continue to reprice at lower rates in 2013 but to a lesser extent than 2012. The improvement in the margin that did occur from the 4th quarter of 2012 to the 1st quarter of 2013 was fueled by loan growth.  The company will continue to focus on growing earning assets and maintaining margins.
 
The provision for loan losses was $125 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to $190 thousand for the same period in 2012.  Recoveries of $163 thousand in the first quarter of 2013 on a loan written off in a prior year replenished the allowance for loan losses and lowered the amount of current year provision expense.
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2013, noninterest income totaled $317 thousand, $55 thousand or 21% higher than the same period in the prior year.   ATM and interchange income increased $27 thousand or 57% from the growth in the number of consumer deposit accounts.  Other income was up $26 thousand over the prior year due to title insurance fees and rents collected from the leasing of foreclosed properties.

Noninterest expense increased $193 thousand or 7.7% to $2.7 million for the three months ended on March 31, 2013, when compared to the same period in 2012.   Cost of living and merit increases, along with staff additions as the Company expanded mortgage operations, and fewer deferrals of loan origination costs resulted in higher salaries and employee benefits in the current year.  Of the $47 thousand increase in professional expenses over the same period as last year, $36 thousand was associated with legal fees incurred that resulted in the recovery of $163 thousand of a loan charged off in a prior year.  Expenses associated with other real estate were less in the first three months of 2013 compared to 2012.

Financial Condition
 
At March 31, 2013, the Company had total assets of $377 million compared to $370 million at December 31, 2012.   At March 31, 2013, assets were comprised principally of loans, cash and due from banks, and investment securities. The Company’s management, under the direction of the Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO) of the Board of Directors, reviews the mix of monetary assets and liabilities to ensure the Company maintains an adequate level of liquidity while maximizing interest rate spreads.
 
The attractiveness of yields on loans over investments which began in 2012 continues into 2013.  Loans increased $2.3 million or about 1% over year end 2012.  The rate of loan growth for the first three months of 2013 is expected to accelerate over the remaining months of 2013.  Securities available for sale rose $2.0 million or 3.1% to $65.5 million at March 31, 2013 since year end 2012 
 
The Company’s liabilities at March 31, 2013 totaled $340 million compared to $334 million at December 31, 2012, an increase of $6.3 million or 1.9%.   Deposits rose $9.3 million or 3.0% since year end 2012.  Interest-bearing deposits accounted for $6.8 million of the increase.  The largest increases were in consumer interest-bearing deposits, fueled by maturing CD’s and a marketing campaign to attract new customers.  Noninterest-bearing deposits were up $2.6 million thousand from year end 2012 to March 31, 2013 due primarily to growth in commercial accounts.   

At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had stockholders’ equity of $36.9 million and $36.7 million, respectively, an increase of $224 thousand. The change in stockholders’ equity in the first three months of 2013 was mainly the result of net income of $372 thousand.  The increase was partially offset by the payment of $133 thousand of dividends on preferred stock, and a $175 thousand decrease in other comprehensive income resulting from a decrease in unrealized gains on securities available for sale.

Management believes the Company has sufficient capital to fund its operations. At March 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all regulatory capital requirements. Management believes that the Company has sufficient liquidity on a short-term basis to meet any funding needs it may have, and expects that its long term liquidity needs can be achieved through deposit growth, however there can be no assurance that such growth will develop.
 
Non-performing Assets
 
Non-performing assets consist of loans past-due ninety days or more and still accruing interest, non-accrual loans and repossessed and foreclosed assets.  There were no loans past due ninety days or more and still accruing interest at March 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012.   Nonaccrual loans totaled $2.4 million at March 31, 2013, compared to $2.7 million at December 31, 2012.

At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 the Company had 3 loans classified as restructured loans totaling $6.5 million.   At March 31, 2013 all restructured loans were paying in accordance with their restructured terms.  No loans were restructured during the first quarter of 2013.

The major classifications of other real estate owned in the consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 are included in Note 5.
 
The activity in other real estate owned for the first three months of 2013 are included in Note 5.
 
Losses on sales of other real estate owned totaled $2 thousand for the first three months of 2013 and $3 thousand for 2012.  There were no writedowns of other real estate owned in the first three months of 2013 or 2012.
 
Allowance for Loan Losses
 
The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to income and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the Company’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and current economic conditions.
 
Specific loss reserves for loans individually evaluated for impairment totaled $224 thousand at March 31, 2013 compared to $208 thousand at December 31, 2012.  Impaired loans declined $797 thousand from $15.6 million at December 31, 2012 to $14.8 million at March 31, 2013.    Based on the general reserves established on loans collectively evaluated for impairment and the specific reserves for loans individually evaluated for impairment, the Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $125 thousand in the first three months of 2013 compared to $190 thousand in 2012.   Based on this evaluation, the percentage of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.37%, and 1.38% at March 31, 2013, and December 31, 2012, respectively.  

The most recent economic activity report, dated April 17, 2013 from the Federal Reserve (the Beige Book), indicated that economic activity had expanded at a moderate pace since the previous Beige Book report, with all twelve Districts characterizing the pace of growth as either slight or moderate.  Most Districts noted increases in manufacturing activity since the previous report.  Particular strength was seen in industries tied to residential construction and automobiles.  Based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics data, unemployment rates for the Roanoke, VA Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) showed positive trends during 2012 and into 2013. Unemployment rates dropped from a January 2012 level of 6.4% to a December 2012 level of 5.7%. Preliminary data for March 2013 indicate an unemployment rate of 5.4%.
  
Liquidity
 
Liquidity represents the ability to meet present and future financial obligations through either the sale or maturity of existing assets or with borrowings from correspondent banks or other deposit markets.  Liquid assets include cash, interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposits with banks, federal funds sold, investment securities and loans maturing within one year.  As a result of the Company’s management of liquid assets and the ability to generate liquidity through liability funding, management believes that the Company maintains overall liquidity sufficient to satisfy its depositors’ requirements and to meet its customers’ borrowing needs.
 
At March 31, 2013, cash, interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing deposits with banks, federal funds sold, loans maturing within one year, and expected maturities, calls and principal repayments from the securities portfolio within one year totaled $63.2 million, compared to $54.2 million at year end 2012.

Lines of credit available to meet liquidity needs include: $17.5 million of federal funds lines of credit and $11.7 million in Federal Home Loan Bank lines of credit immediately available. The Company is approved to borrow 20% of our total assets from the Federal Home Loan Bank subject to providing qualifying collateral.  The Company also has an $8 million guidance line of credit to borrow against securities.  The limit on this line is 15% of assets.   At March 31, 2013, there were no advances on these lines.

Capital Requirements
 
The maintenance of appropriate levels of capital is a priority and is continually monitored. Banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking agencies. Quantitative measures established by regulations to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum capital ratios. Failure to meet minimum capital ratios can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Financial Instruments With Off-Balance-Sheet Risk
 
In the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers, the Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk. These financial instruments involve commitments to extend credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.
 
The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The same credit policy is used in making commitments as is used for on-balance-sheet risk.

At March 31, 2013 outstanding commitments to extend credit including letters of credit were $48.7 million. There are no commitments to extend credit on impaired loans.
 
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no breach of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The commitments may expire without ever being drawn upon; therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash outlays for the Company.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210) – Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.”  This ASU requires entities to disclose both gross information and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the balance sheet and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment.”  The amendments in this ASU apply to all entities that have indefinite-lived intangible assets, other than goodwill, reported in their financial statements.  The amendments in this ASU provide an entity with the option to make a qualitative assessment about the likelihood that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired to determine whether it should perform a quantitative impairment test. The amendments also enhance the consistency of impairment testing guidance among long-lived asset categories by permitting an entity to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to calculate the asset’s fair value when testing an indefinite-lived intangible asset for impairment.  The amendments are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted.  The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.”  The amendments in this ASU clarify the scope for derivatives accounted for in accordance with Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset or subject to netting arrangements.  An entity is required to apply the amendments for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after January 1, 2013.  The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
 
 
23

 

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.”  The amendments in this ASU require an entity to present (either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes) the effects on the line items of net income of significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income.  In addition, the amendments require a cross-reference to other disclosures currently required for other reclassification items to be reclassified directly to net income in their entirety in the same reporting period.  Companies should apply these amendments for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after December 15, 2012.  The Company added Note 8 Reclassifications Out of Other Comprehensive Income.
