NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(Dollars in thousands, except for per share amounts)
1.) Basis of Presentation:
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S.GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2009. These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our annual audited financial statements as of December 31, 2008, included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2008, has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.
2.) Reclassifications:
Certain items contained in the 2008 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation for 2009. Such reclassifications had no effect on the net results of operations.
3.) Investment Securities:
Securities classified as held to maturity are those that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. Securities held to maturity are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, with such amortization or accretion included in interest income.
Securities classified as available for sale are those that could be sold for liquidity, investment management, or similar reasons even though management has no present intentions to do so. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value using the specific identification method. Changes in the unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities are recorded net of tax effect as a component of comprehensive income.
Trading securities are principally held with the intention of selling in the near term. Trading securities are carried at fair value with changes in fair value reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income (unaudited).
Securities are evaluated periodically to determine whether a decline in their value is other-than-temporary. Management utilizes criteria such as the magnitude and duration of the decline, in addition to the reasons underlying the decline, to determine whether the loss in value is other-than-temporary. The term “other-than-temporary” is not intended to indicate that the decline is permanent, but indicates that the prospect for a near-term recovery of value is not necessarily favorable, or that there is a lack of evidence to support a realizable value equal to or greater than the carrying value of the investment. Once a decline in value is determined to be other-than-temporary, the value of the security is reduced and a corresponding charge to earnings is recognized.

The above table represents 135 investment securities where the current value is less than the related amortized cost.
The Company reviews investment debt securities on an ongoing basis for the presence of other than temporary impairment (OTTI) with formal reviews performed quarterly. OTTI losses on individual investment securities were recognized during the first quarter 2009 according to FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 issued by the FASB on April 9, 2009. This new guidance requires that credit-related OTTI be recognized in earnings while noncredit-related OTTI on securities not expected to be sold is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) (OCI). The credit-related OTTI recognized in earnings during the first quarter 2009 related to securities newly deemed other than temporarily impaired. The credit-related OTTI recognized during the first quarter 2009 was $3.7 million and was solely related to available-for-sale securities newly having a book value of $11.5 million. Noncredit-related OTTI on these securities, which are not expected to be sold, was $6.6 million and was recognized in OCI during the first quarter 2009.
The unrealized losses on the Company’s investment in U.S. Government agencies and corporations, obligations, of states and political subdivisions, and mortgage-backed and related securities were caused by changes in market rates and related spreads, as well as reflecting current distressed conditions in the credit markets and the market’s on-going reassessment of appropriate liquidity and risk premiums. It is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost of the Company’s investment because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and relative spreads and not credit quality, and because the Company does not intend to sell those investments and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of its amortized cost basis less any current-period credit loss. The Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2009.
The unrealized loss on investments in corporate securities relates to Collateralized Debt Obligations, (CDO’S), representing pools of trust preferred debt primarily issued by bank holding companies and insurance companies. The net unrealized loss on these securities at March 31, 2009 was $22,783 as compared to a $19,454 loss at December 31, 2008. At March 31, 2009, the Company recognized $3,728 of other-than-temporary losses attributable to six CDO’s with a cost basis of $11,539. The impairment charges were recognized after determining the likely future cash flows of these securities had been adversely impacted from the previous quarter.
During September 2008, the U.S. government placed mortgage finance companies Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), under conservatorship, giving management control to their regulator, the Federal Housing Finance Agency, or FHFA, and providing both companies with access to credit from the U.S. Treasury. Debt obligations now provide an explicit guarantee of the full faith and credit of the United States government to existing and future debt holders of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac limited to the period under which they are under conservatorship.
In response to the takeover, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation tentatively approved a rule, proposed by all four federal bank regulators, that eases capital requirements for federally insured depository institutions that hold FNMA and FHLMC corporate debt, subordinated debt, mortgage guarantees and derivatives.
Adversely affected by these actions were the value of the common stock and preferred stock of both FNMA and FHLMC. Neither the Company nor its bank subsidiary owned any common or preferred shares of either FNMA or FHLMC.

4.) Concentration of Credit Risk and Off Balance Sheet Risk:
The Company currently does not enter into derivative financial instruments including futures, forwards, interest rate risk swaps, option contracts, or other financial instruments with similar characteristics. The Company also does not participate in any partnerships that might give rise to off-balance sheet liabilities.
The Company, through its subsidiary bank, is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and financial guarantees. Such instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized on the balance sheet. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.
In the event of nonperformance by the other party, the Company’s exposure to credit loss on these financial instruments is represented by the contract or notional amount of the instrument. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for instruments recorded on the balance sheet. The amount and nature of collateral obtained, if any, is based on management’s credit evaluation.
                 
    CONTRACT OR  
    NOTIONAL AMOUNT  
    March 31,     December 31,  
    2009     2008  
 
               
Financial instruments whose contract amount represents credit risk:
               
Commitments to extend credit:
               
Fixed rate
  $ 1,809     $ 1,301  
Variable
    33,176       35,699  
Standby letters of credit
    873       850  
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Generally these financial arrangements have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company’s subsidiary bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Since many of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment and income producing commercial properties.
The Company’s subsidiary bank also offers limited overdraft protection as a non-contractual courtesy which is available to demand deposit accounts in good standing for business, personal or household use. The Company reserves the right to discontinue this service without prior notice. The available amount of overdraft protection on depositors’ accounts not included in the table above at March 31, 2009 totaled $11,625 and $11,536 at December 31, 2008. The total average daily balance of overdrafts used in 2009 was $130 and $161 in 2008, or approximately 1.1% of the total aggregate overdraft protection available to depositors at March 31, 2009 and 1.4% at December 31, 2008.

The following shows the amounts of contractual interest income and interest income actually reflected in income on loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis and loans considered troubled debt restructuring for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.

A loan is placed on a non-accrual basis whenever sufficient information is received to question the collectibility of the loan or any time legal proceedings are initiated involving a loan. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, any interest that has been accrued and not collected on the loan is charged against earnings. Cash payments received while a loan is classified as non-accrual are recorded as a reduction to principal or reported as interest income according to management’s judgment as to collectibility of principal.
A loan is returned to accrual status when either all of the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are, in management’s opinion, collectible, or when it otherwise becomes well secured and in the process of collection. When a loan is charged-off, any interest accrued but not collected on the loan is charged against earnings.
Loans are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due in accordance with the original contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled principal and interest payments. If a loan is impaired, a specific valuation allowance is allocated, if necessary. Impaired loans are generally included in non-accrual loans. Management does not individually evaluate certain smaller balance loans for impairment as such loans are evaluated on an aggregate basis. These loans include 1 — 4 family, consumer and home equity loans. Impaired loans were evaluated using the fair value of collateral as the measurement method. Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectible.
Impaired loans were as follows:
                 
    March 31,     December 31,  
    2009     2008  
 
               
Balance of impaired loans with no allocated allowance
  $ 937     $ 483  
Balance of impaired loans with an allocated allowance
    636       441  
 
           
Total recorded investment in impaired loans
  $ 1,573     $ 924  
 
           
 
               
Amount of the allowance allocated to impaired loans
  $ 341     $ 262  
 
           
Average balance of impaired loans
  $ 1,064     $ 1,489  
 
           
The impaired loans included in the table above were primarily comprised of collateral dependent commercial loans. Interest income recognized on these loans subsequent to their classification as impaired was $7 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and $37 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008.
Loans in the amount of $25,532 as of March 31, 2009, and $27,499 as of December 31, 2008 were not included in any of the above categories and were not currently considered impaired, but which can be considered to be potential problem loans.
Any loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss, doubtful, substandard, or special mention that have not been disclosed above either do not (i) represent or result from trends or uncertainties which management reasonably expects will materially impact future operating results, liquidity, or capital resources, or (ii) represent material credits about which management is aware of any information which causes management to have serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the loan repayment terms.

  $ 2,585     $ 1,486  
 
           
 
               
Ratio of annualized net charge-offs to average loans outstanding
    0.06 %     0.38 %
 
           
For each of the periods presented above, the provision for loan losses charged to operations is based on management’s judgment after taking into consideration all known factors connected with the collectibility of the existing portfolio. Management evaluates the portfolio in light of economic conditions, changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio, industry standards and other relevant factors. Specific factors considered by management in determining the amounts charged to operations include previous loan loss experience; the status of past due interest and principal payments; the quality of financial information supplied by customers; the cash flow coverage and trends evidenced by financial information supplied by customers; the nature and estimated value of any collateral supporting specific loan credits; risk classifications determined by the Company’s loan review systems or as the result of the regulatory examination process; and general economic conditions in the lending area of the Company’s bank subsidiary. Key risk factors and assumptions are systematically updated to reflect actual experience and changing circumstances.
The Company maintains an allowance for losses on unfunded commercial lending commitments to provide for the risk of loss inherent in these arrangements. The allowance is computed using a methodology similar to that used to determine the allowance for loan losses. This allowance is reported as a liability on the balance sheet within accrued expenses and other liabilities, while the corresponding provision for these losses is recorded as a component of other expense.
Certain asset-specific loans are evaluated individually for impairment, based on management’s best estimate of discounted cash repayments and the anticipated proceeds from liquidating collateral. The actual timing and amount of repayments and the ultimate realizable value of the collateral may differ from management’s estimates.
The expected loss for certain other commercial credits utilizes internal risk ratings. These loss estimates are sensitive to changes in the customer’s risk profile, the realizable value of collateral, other risk factors and the related loss experience of other credits of similar risk. Consumer credits generally employ statistical loss factors, adjusted for other risk indicators, applied to pools of similar loans stratified by asset type. These loss estimates are sensitive to changes in delinquency status and shifts in the aggregate risk profile.

7.) Stock Repurchase Program
On February 27, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a Stock Repurchase Program which permitted the Company to repurchase up to 100,000 shares of its outstanding common shares in the over-the-counter market or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Based on the value of the Company’s stock on February 27, 2007, the commitment to repurchase the stock over the program was approximately $1,715.
On August 14, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional 100,000 shares of its outstanding common shares in over-the-counter market or in privately negotiated transactions. Based on the value of the Company’s stock on August 14, 2007, the commitment to repurchase these additional shares over the program was approximately $1,635.
On November 27, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors increased to 300,000 shares the size of its current stock buyback program by authorizing the repurchase of up to an additional 100,000 shares of its outstanding common shares in the over-the-counter market or in privately negotiated transactions. Based on the value of the Company’s stock on November 27, 2007, the commitment to repurchase these additional shares over the program was approximately $1,375.
The repurchase program terminated on February 28, 2009. Repurchased shares are designated as treasury shares, available for general corporate purposes, including possible use in connection with the Company’s dividend reinvestment program, employee benefit plans, acquisitions or other distributions. Under the program the Company repurchased 205,986 shares in 2007, 51,817 shares in 2008 and none in 2009. The Company reissued 28,170 shares to existing shareholders through its dividend reinvestment program during 2009, net of repurchased fractional shares.

8.) Subordinated Debt
In July 2007 a trust formed by the Company issued $5,000 of floating rate trust preferred securities as part of a pooled offering of such securities due December 2037. The Bancorp owns all $155 of the common securities related to this trust. The Company issued subordinated debentures to the trust at an interest rate that floats quarterly at the 3-month Libor rate plus 1.45% in exchange for the proceeds of the trust preferred offering. The debentures constitute the assets of this trust. The Company may redeem the subordinated debentures, in whole or in part, at a premium declining ratably to par in September 2012.
In accordance with FASB Interpretation No.46, as revised in December 2003, the trust is not consolidated with the Company’s financial statements. Accordingly, the Company does not report the securities issued by the trust as liabilities, but instead reports as liabilities the subordinated debentures issued by the Company and held by the trust. The subordinated debentures qualify as Tier 1 capital for regulatory purposes in determining and evaluating the Company’s capital adequacy.
9.) Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157)
Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted the provisions of FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, for financial assets and financial liabilities. FAS No. 157 provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The standard applies whenever other standards require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. The standard does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. The FASB issued Staff Position No. 157-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 157 to FASB Statement No. 13 and Other Accounting Pronouncements That Address Fair Value Measurements for Purposes of Lease Classification or Measurement under Statement 13, which removed leasing transactions accounted for under FAS No. 13 and related guidance from the scope of FAS No. 157. On April 9, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position No. 157-4 (“FSP 157-4”), “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly”, which the Company elected to early adopt this FSP and the results have been applied on the financial statements and disclosures herein, without a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. FSP 157-4 provides guidance for determining fair value if there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability in relation to normal market activity. In that circumstance, transactions or quoted prices may not be determinative of fair value. Significant adjustments may be necessary to quoted prices or alternative valuation techniques may be required in order to determine the fair value of the asset or liability under current market conditions. The adoption of FSP 157-4 resulted in the use of valuation techniques other than quoted prices for the valuation of the Company’s collateralized debt obligations.
FAS No. 157 establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observability utilized in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. The three broad levels defined by FAS No. 157 hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.
Level 2: Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities include items for which quoted prices are available but which trade less frequently, and items that are fair valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.
Level 3: Assets and liabilities that have little to no pricing observability as of the reported date. These items do not have two-way markets and are measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

The following table presents the changes in the Level 3 fair-value category for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The Company classifies financial instruments in Level 3 of the fair-value hierarchy when there is reliance on at least one significant unobservable input to the valuation model. In addition to these unobservable inputs, the valuation models for Level 3 financial instruments typically also rely on a number of inputs that are readily observable either directly or indirectly.

On September 30, 2008, the Company changed its valuation technique for pooled trust preferred holdings available-for-sale. Previously, the Company relied on prices compiled by third party vendors using observable market data (Level 2) to determine the values of these securities. However, SFAS 157 assumes that fair values of financial assets are determined in an orderly transaction and not a forced liquidation or distressed sale at the measurement date. Based on financial market conditions at September 30, 2008, the Company concluded that the fair values obtained from third party vendors reflected forced liquidation or distressed sales for these trust preferred securities. Therefore, the Company estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flow methodology using appropriately adjusted discount rates reflecting nonperformance and liquidity risks. The change in the valuation technique for these trust preferred securities resulted in a transfer of these securities into Level 3 financial assets.
The Company conducts other-than-temporary impairment analysis on a quarterly basis. The initial indication of other-than-temporary impairment for both debt and equity securities is a decline in the market value below the amount recorded for an investment. A decline in value that is considered to be other-than-temporary is recorded as a loss within non-interest income in the consolidated statement of income. In determining whether an impairment is other than temporary, the Company considers a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the length of time and extent to which the market value has been less than cost, recent events specific to the issuer, including investment downgrades by rating agencies and economic conditions of its industry, and the Company’s intent and ability to retain the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for a recovery in market value or maturity. Among the factors that are considered in determining the Company’s intent and ability is a review of its capital adequacy, interest rate risk position and liquidity.
The Company also considers the issuer’s financial condition, capital strength and near-term prospects. In addition, for debt securities the Company considers the cause of the price decline (general level of interest rates and industry- and issuer-specific factors), current ability to make future payments in a timely manner and the issuer’s ability to service debt. The assessment of a security’s ability to recover any decline in market value, the ability of the issuer to meet contractual obligations and the Company’s intent and ability to retain the security require considerable judgment.

Certain of the corporate debt securities are accounted for under EITF 99-20, “Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased Beneficial Interests that Continue to Be Held by a Transferor in Securitized Financial Assets.” For investments within the scope of EITF 99-20 at acquisition, the Company evaluates current available information in estimating the future cash flows of these securities and determines whether there have been favorable or adverse changes in estimated cash flows from the cash flows previously projected. The Company considers the structure and term of the pool and the financial condition of the underlying issuers. Specifically, the evaluation incorporates factors such as interest rates and appropriate risk premiums, the timing and amount of interest and principal payments and the allocation of payments to the various note classes. Current estimates of cash flows are based on the most recent trustee reports, announcements of deferrals or defaults, expected future default rates and other relevant market information.
The Company owns 32 collateralized debt obligation securities (CDO) totaling $35,110 (par value) that are backed by trust preferred securities issued by banks, thrifts, insurance companies and real estate investment trusts. These securities were all rated investment grade at inception. During the second half of 2008 and the first quarter of 2009, factors outside the Company’s control impacted the fair value of these securities and will likely continue to do so for the foreseeable future. These factors include but are not limited to: guidance on fair value accounting, issuer credit deterioration, issuer deferral and default rates, potential failure or government seizure of underlying financial institutions or insurance companies, ratings agency actions, regulatory actions. As a result of changes in these and various other factors during the first quarter 2009, Moody’s Investors Service, Fitch Ratings and Standards and Poors downgraded multiple CDO securities, including securities held by the Company. Thirty-one of the CDO securities held by the Company are now considered to be below investment grade, with one security still rated investment grade. The deteriorating economic, credit and financial conditions experienced in 2008 and 2009 have resulted in illiquid and inactive financial markets and severely depressed prices for these securities. The Company analyzed the cash flow characteristics of these securities within the scope of EITF 99-20. The Company determined that for 26 of these securities, it does not intend to sell the securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the securities before recovery of its amortized cost basis. It was determined that there was no adverse change in the cash flows for these 26 securities. The Company does not consider the investment in these assets to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2009. However, there is a risk that subsequent evaluations could result in recognition of other-than-temporary impairment charges in the future. Upon completion of the March 31, 2009 analysis, our model indicated other-than-temporary impairment on the remaining six securities, all of which experienced additional defaults or deferrals during the period. These six securities had other-than-temporary impairment losses of $10.3 million, of which $3.7 million was recorded as expense and $6.6 million was recorded in other comprehensive income. These six securities remained classified as available for sale at March 31, 2009, and together, the 32 securities subjected to EITF 99-20 accounted for $22.8 million of the unrealized loss in the trust preferred pools/collateralized debt obligations category at March 31, 2009.
The following table details the six debt securities with other-than-temporary impairment, their credit ratings at March 31, 2009 and the related losses recognized in earnings:

The market for these securities at March 31, 2009 is not active and markets for similar securities are also not active. The inactivity was evidenced first by a significant widening of the bid-ask spread in the brokered markets in which CDOs trade and then by a significant decrease in the volume of trades relative to historical levels. The new issue market is also inactive as no new trust preferred CDOs have been issued since 2007. There are currently very few market participants who are willing and or able to transact for these securities. Thus market value for these securities remains very depressed relative to historical levels. For example, the yield spreads for the broad market of investment grade and high yield corporate bonds reached all time wide levels versus Treasuries at the end of November and remain near those levels today.

Given conditions in the debt markets today and the absence of observable transactions in the secondary and the new issue markets, we determined:
   
The few observable transactions and market quotations that are available are not reliable for purposes of determining fair value at March 31, 2009;
   
An income valuation approach technique (present value technique) that maximizes the use of relevant observable inputs and maximizes the use of unobservable inputs will be equally or more representative of fair value than the market approach valuation technique used at prior measurement dates; and
   
The CDOs will be classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because the Company determined that significant adjustments are required to determine fair value at the measurement date.
The CDO valuations were derived by an independent third party valuation service. Our approach to determining fair value involved these steps:
  1.  
The credit quality of the collateral is estimated using average probability of default values for each issuer (adjusted for rating levels).
 
  2.  
The default probabilities also considered the potential for correlation among issuers within the same industry (e.g. banks with other banks).
 
  3.  
The cash flows were forecast for the underlying collateral and applied to each CDO tranche to determine the resulting distribution among the securities.
 
  4.  
The expected cash flows were discounted to calculate the present value of the security.
 
  5.  
The effective discount rates on an overall basis generally range from 3.91% to 24.72% and are highly dependent upon the credit quality of the collateral, the relative position of the tranche in the capital structure of the CDO and the prepayment assumptions.
The following tables present the assets measured on a nonrecurring basis on the consolidated statements of financial condition at their fair value as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 by level within the fair value hierarchy. Impaired loans that are collateral dependent are written down to fair value through the establishment of specific reserves. Techniques used to value the collateral that secure the impaired loan include: quoted market prices for identical assets classified as Level 1 inputs; observable inputs, employed by certified appraisers, for similar assets classified as Level 2 inputs. In cases where valuation techniques included inputs that are unobservable and are based on estimates and assumptions developed by management based on the best information available under each circumstance, the asset valuation is classified as Level 3 inputs.

Impaired Loans: A loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due (both interest and principal) according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans are measured, as a practical expedient, at the loan’s observable market price or the fair market value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. At March 31, 2009, the recorded investment in impaired loans was $1,573, with a related reserve of $341 resulting in a net balance of $1,232. At December 31, 2008 the recorded investment in impaired loans was $441 with a related reserve of $262 resulting in a net balance of $179.
Other Real Estate Owned (OREO): Real Estate acquired through foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is included in other assets. Such real estate is carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Any reduction from the carrying value of the related loan to fair value at the time of acquisition is accounted for as a loan loss. Any subsequent reduction in fair market value is reflected as a valuation allowance through a charge to income. Costs of significant property improvements are capitalized, whereas costs relating to holding and maintaining the property are charged to expense. At March 31, 2009 the recorded investment in OREO was $1,169 with a valuation allowance of $24 resulting in a net balance of $1,145. At December 31, 2008 the recorded investment in OREO was $819 with a valuation allowance of $10 resulting in a net balance of $809.
