Our Mission

It is the mission of Farmers Bank 
to be unique and distinct from 
all other financial institutions, 
set apart by excelling in the 
following areas:

•  To offer a superior level of service 
that is responsive, courteous, 
cooperative and professional. 

•  To remain an independent 

financial institution founded in 
1919, operating seven branches 
and serving areas throughout 
Western Tidewater and South 
Hampton Roads, being sensitive 
to the financial needs of our 
communities by designing and 
offering products to specifically 
meet those needs.

•  To be good corporate citizens, 
serving as leaders to strengthen 
our communities and promote 
their welfare.

•  To employ men and women 

who are loyal to the bank and 
committed to our direction, 
policies and goals.

•  To bring to our shareholders 
a fair rate of return on their 
investments.

DEAR SHAREHOLDER

We are very pleased to announce our third 
consecutive year of record earnings. Net 
income for 2017 totaled approximately $4.5 
million as compared to the prior year of almost 
$4.2 million, an increase of 7.58%. These 
results include a pre-tax, non-recurring gain of 
$590 thousand from the sale of other real estate 
owned as well as a one-time charge to earnings 
of approximately $200 thousand to account 
for the revaluing of our deferred tax asset under 
the new Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.   

Our Board of Directors and management 
team spent 2017 executing opportunities that 
aligned with our strategic vision, producing 
successful results. Our partnership with 
Manry Rawls, LLC continues to be beneficial 
for both organizations and has assisted in 
diversifying our revenue sources. As you are 
aware, in the first quarter of 2017 we opened 
our first branch in Chesapeake. Although this 
market is very different from our traditional 
footprint, we believe this endeavor will 
position us to take advantage of continued 
banking consolidation in the Hampton Roads 
market. The team we have assembled is well 
connected in the Chesapeake area and ensures 
our customers receive the level of personalized 
service we strive to provide. In March of 2017 
we also refinanced the outstanding capital 
notes, originally issued in 2013, lowering 
our debt service costs by approximately $200 
thousand annually.  

As we approach our 100th year, we remain 
committed to our shareholders, customers and 
communities. Part of this commitment is to 
offer our customers innovative technology that 
will increase convenience and productivity. 
As you read this letter, we are finalizing our 
latest investment in technology through a core 
conversion which includes all customer facing 
products. This completes a three-year process of 
due diligence, preparation and implementation. 

Associated with the transition will be some one-
time expenses that could negatively impact our 
operating efficiency ratio in 2018. In addition 
to enhanced customer product offerings, this 
conversion will result in operating efficiencies 
and cost savings for the Bank that will more 
than offset the cost of the implementation.   

During 2017 we again improved our dividend 
payout ratio, growing from 22% in 2016 to 
27% in 2017, an additional payout of $.10 
per share annually. We have worked to increase 
the value of your investment by improving 
the liquidity of our stock and increasing our 
communication with investors. Those efforts 
have resulted in a stock price that trades at a 
premium to book value.

As always, our sincere appreciation goes to 
you, our shareholders and our loyal customers 
for your continued support and confidence in 
Farmers Bank. We are truly indebted to our 
staff for their dedication to the Company in 
the last several months, working diligently to 
ensure our core conversion goes smoothly. Our 
hope is that 2018 brings health, prosperity and 
success for each of you.

Sincerely,

Independent Auditor’s Report 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders 
Farmers Bankshares, Inc. 
Windsor, Virginia 

Report on the Financial Statements 
We  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements  of  Farmers  Bankshares,  Inc.  and  Subsidiary,  which 
comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related consolidated statements of 
operations, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related 
notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively, the financial statements). 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements 
Management  is  responsible  for  the  preparation  and  fair  presentation  of  these  financial  statements  in  accordance  with 
accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United  States  of  America;  this  includes  the  design,  implementation,  and 
maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from 
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

Auditor’s Responsibility 
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in 
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan 
and  perform  the  audit  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the  financial  statements  are  free  from  material 
misstatement.  

An  audit  involves  performing  procedures  to  obtain  audit  evidence  about  the  amounts  and  disclosures  in  the  financial 
statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material 
misstatement  of  the  financial  statements,  whether  due  to  fraud  or  error.  In  making  those  risk  assessments,  the  auditor 
considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to 
design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the 
effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the 
appropriateness  of  accounting  policies  used  and  the  reasonableness  of  significant  accounting  estimates  made  by 
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.  

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. 

Opinion 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of 
Farmers Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash 
flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 
For Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 

Note 1 - Organization and nature of business 

Farmers  Bankshares,  Inc.  (the  “Company”)  was  organized  and  incorporated  under  the  laws  of  the  Commonwealth  of 
Virginia on July 26, 2013.   On December 31, 2013, the Company was consummated as the Bank Holding Company of 
Farmers  Bank,  Windsor,  Virginia  (the  “Bank”)  through  a  reorganization  plan,  under  the  laws  of  the  Commonwealth  of 
Virginia.  As of this date, the Bank became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Farmers Bankshares, Inc.  The Bank was formed on 
November  12,  1919  and  has  offices  in  Windsor,  Smithfield,  Suffolk,  Chesapeake  and  Courtland,  Virginia.    Through  its 
banking subsidiary, the Company provides a wide variety of banking services primarily in southeastern Virginia.   

The  Bank  provides  small  and  mid-sized  businesses,  professionals,  corporate  executives  and  entrepreneurs  with  banking 
services comparable to those of the large national and regional institutions.  These services include loans that are priced on a 
deposit-based  relationship,  direct  access  to  the  Bank's  decision  makers,  and  quick,  innovative  response  to  customers’ 
financial needs.  If customers have credit requirements that exceed the Bank's credit limits, the Bank seeks to accommodate 
those customers by arranging loans on a participation basis with other financial institutions. 

During 2014, the Bank purchased a one-third ownership interest in Manry Rawls, LLC (“Manry Rawls”).   Manry Rawls is a 
local  and  independent  regional  insurance  agency  offering  a  wide  array  of  insurance  products.    In  May  2017,  the  Bank 
purchased an additional one-third interest in Manry Rawls, LLC.  This additional interest makes the Bank’s total ownership 
two-thirds  or  approximately  67%.        Prior  to  the  additional  purchase  in  2017,  the  Bank’s  proportionate  share  of  Manry 
Rawls’  income  was  recorded  as  an  increase  in  the  investment  and  other  non-interest  income.  After  May  12,  2017  the 
acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with 
Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  (“FASB”)  Accounting  Standards  Codification  (“ASC)”  805,  Business  Combinations.   
As such, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transactions were recorded at their respective fair values as of the 
acquisition date.  The results of operations of the acquired business are included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements 
of Operations commencing May 12, 2017.   

Note 2 - Summary of significant accounting policies 

Basis of presentation and consolidation - The consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in conformity 
with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United  States  of  America.    The  consolidated  financial  statements 
include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Bank and Manry Rawls.  All significant intercompany 
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.   

Cash and cash equivalents - For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts 
due from banks, interest-bearing deposits with banks and federal funds sold, all of which mature within 90 days or less.  The 
Company is required by the Federal Reserve to maintain average reserve balances.  For the final quarterly reporting period in 
2017 and 2016, the aggregate amount of daily-required balances was $159,000 and $85,000, respectively. 

Investment securities - Investments in debt securities classified as held-to-maturity, if any, are stated at cost, and adjusted for 
amortization  of  premiums  and  accretion  of  discounts  using  the  interest  method.    The  Company  held  no  such  securities 
during the periods reported in the financial statements. 

Investments  in  debt  securities  classified  as  trading,  if  any,  are  stated  at  fair  value.  Such  securities  are  purchased  and  held 
principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term.  Unrealized holding gains and losses for trading securities are 
included  in  the  Statements  of  Operations.    The  Company  held  no  such  securities  during  the  periods  reported  on  in  the 
financial statements. 

Investments not classified as either held-to-maturity or trading are classified as available-for-sale.  Debt securities classified as 
available-for-sale are stated at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as a 
component of accumulated other comprehensive income until realized.

Note 2 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

Investment securities (concluded) - The income statement line items impacted by the reclassification of realized gains (losses) 
on the sale of securities are the gains (losses) on disposition of securities and income tax expense line items in the Statement 
of Operations.  Gains and losses on the sale of securities are determined using the specific identification method and are 
recognized  on  a  trade  date  basis.    Other  than  temporary  declines  in  the  fair  value  of  individual  held-to-maturity  and 
available-for-sale  securities  below  their  cost,  if  any,  are  included  in  earnings  as  realized  losses.  Other  than  temporarily 
impaired (“OTTI”) guidance for investments states that an impairment is OTTI if any of the following conditions exist: the 
entity intends to sell the security; it is more likely than not that the entity will be required to sell the security before recovery 
of  its  amortized  cost  basis;  or,  the  entity  does  not  expect  to  recover  the  security’s  entire  amortized  cost  basis  (even  if  the 
entity does not intend to sell).  

Loans  -  The  Bank  grants  mortgage,  commercial  and  consumer  loans  to  customers.    A  substantial  portion  of  the  loan 
portfolio is represented by commercial and consumer mortgage loans throughout Southeastern Virginia.  The ability of the 
Bank’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the real estate and general economic conditions in this area.  

Loans held for investment that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity 
generally are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances.  Loans held for sale are originated and intended for sale 
in the secondary market.  These loans are carried at the lower of cost or market in the aggregate.  Net unrealized losses, if 
any,  are  recognized  through  charges  to  income.    Interest  income  is  accrued  on  the  unpaid  principal  balance  for  all  loan 
classes.    Discounts  and  premiums  are  amortized  to  income  using  the  interest  method.    Net  deferred  fees  and  costs  are 
amortized over the lives of the applicable loans using the effective interest rate method.   

Allowance for loan losses  - The  allowance  for  loan  losses  is  established  as  losses  are  estimated  to  have  occurred  through  a 
provision for loan losses charged to earnings.  Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the 
uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed.  Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. 

The  allowance  for  loan  losses  is  evaluated  on  a  regular  basis  by  management  and  is  based  upon  management's  periodic 
review of the collectibility of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse 
situations  that  may  affect  the  borrower's  ability  to  repay,  estimated  value  of  any  underlying  collateral  and  prevailing 
economic  conditions.    This  evaluation  is  inherently  subjective  as  it  requires  estimates  that  are  susceptible  to  significant 
revision as more information becomes available. 

The allowance consists of a specific, a historic and a qualitative component.  The specific component relates to loans that are 
considered impaired.  For such loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash 
flows (or collateral value or observable market price less selling costs) of an impaired loan are lower than the carrying value of 
that  loan.    The  historic  component  covers  non-classified  and  criticized  loans  and  is  based  on  historical  loss  experience 
adjusted  for  qualitative  factors.    The  qualitative  reserve  of  the  allowance  reflects  adjustments  to  historical  experience  to 
account for current conditions impacting the loan portfolio. 

For all classes, a loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank 
will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the 
loan  agreement.    Factors  considered  by  management  in  determining  impairment  include  payment  status,  collateral  value, 
and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due.  Loans that experience insignificant 
payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired.  Management determines the significance of 
payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding 
the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower's prior payment record, 
and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.  Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan 
basis for loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, the 
loan's obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral less selling costs if the loan is collateral dependent.

Note 2 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

Allowance  for  loan  losses  (concluded)  -  Large  groups  of  smaller  balance  homogeneous  loans  are  collectively  evaluated  for 
impairment. The allowance model is applied to determine the specific allowance balance for impaired loans and the general 
allowance balance for unimpaired loans grouped by loan type.   

The Bank’s loan charge-off policy for all  loan classes is to charge down loans to  net realizable value once a portion of the 
loan is determined to be uncollectible, and the underlying collateral shortfall is assessed.  Loans are moved to nonaccrual 
status when the loan becomes 90 days delinquent or a portion of the loan is determined to be uncollectible and supporting 
collateral is not considered to be sufficient to cover potential losses.   

Nonaccrual loans are reviewed monthly to determine if all or a portion of the loan is uncollectible.  Nonaccrual loans that 
are  determined  to  be  solely  collateral  dependent  are  monitored  for  possible  charge  downs  to  net  realizable  value  upon 
determination that they are impaired.   

Income recognition on impaired and non-accrual loans - All classes of loans are generally classified as non-accrual if they are 
past due as to maturity or payment of principal or interest for a period of more than 90 days, unless such loans are well-
secured and in the process of collection.   All classes of loans that are on a current payment status or past due less than 90 
days may also be classified as non-accrual, if repayment in full of principal and/or interest is in doubt. 

All classes of loans may be returned to accrual status when all principal and interest amounts contractually due (including 
arrearages)  are  reasonably  assured  of  repayment  within  an  acceptable  period  of  time,  and  there  is  a  sustained  period  of 
repayment performance by the borrower, in accordance with the contractual terms of interest and principal. 

When all classes of loans are classified as non-accrual and the future collectibility of the recorded loan balance is doubtful, 
collections  of  interest  and  principal  are  generally  applied  as  a  reduction  to  principal  outstanding.  When  the  future 
collectibility of the recorded loan balance is expected, interest income may be recognized on a cash basis. In the case where a 
non-accrual loan had been partially charged off, recognition of interest on a cash basis is limited to that which would have 
been recognized on the recorded loan balance at the contractual interest rate. Cash interest receipts in excess of that amount 
are recorded as recoveries to the allowance for loan losses until prior charge-offs have been fully recovered. 

Other real estate owned - Real estate acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure is held for sale and is initially recorded at 
fair  value  less  estimated  cost  to  sell  at  the  date  of  foreclosure,  establishing  a  new  cost  basis.  Principal  and  interest  losses 
existing  at  the  time  of  acquisition  of  such  assets  are  charged  against  the  allowance  for  loan  losses  and  interest  income, 
respectively.  Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at 
the  lower  of  carrying  amount  or  fair  value  less  estimated  cost  to  sell.  Costs  of  significant  property  improvements  are 
capitalized, whereas costs relating to holding property are expensed.  Revenue and expenses from operations associated with 
other real estate owned and the impact of any subsequent changes in the carrying value are included in other expenses.  

Premises and equipment - Land is carried at cost.  Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. 
For  financial  reporting  purposes,  assets  are  depreciated  over  their  estimated  useful  lives  using  the  straight-line  method.  
Useful lives for these assets are within the following ranges: buildings from 10-39 years; equipment, furniture and fixtures 3-
15  years;  computer  equipment  3-7  years  and  software  3-5  years.    For  income  tax  purposes,  the  accelerated  cost  recovery 
system and the modified accelerated cost recovery system are used. 

Goodwill  and  other  intangibles  -  Goodwill  is  not  subject  to  amortization,  but  is  subject  to  an  annual  assessment  for 
impairment  by  applying  a  fair-value-based  test  as  required  by  ASC  350,  Goodwill  and  Other  Intangible  Assets.  Additionally, 
under  ASC  350,  acquired  intangible  assets  are  separately  recognized  if  the  benefit  of  the  assets  can  be  sold,  transferred, 
licensed, rented, or exchanged, and amortized over their useful life.

Note 2 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

Goodwill and other intangibles (concluded) - Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis 
as of September 30, or more often if events or circumstances indicate there may be impairment. Testing is conducted in two 
steps: identifying the potential impairment and then, if necessary, identifying the amount of impairment. The first step (step 
1) compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount. If the fair value is less than the carrying amount, a 
second test is conducted by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the 
carrying amount exceeds the implied fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. For our 
annual  impairment  testing  conducted  during  2017,  we  identified  one  reporting  unit  with  goodwill:  Manry  Rawls.  For 
purposes of performing step 1 of the goodwill impairment test, the Company primarily uses the income approach to value 
the reporting unit. The income approach consists of discounting projected long-term future cash flows, which are derived 
from  internal  forecasts  and  economic  expectations  for  the  respective  reporting  unit.  The  significant  inputs  to  the  income 
approach include expected future cash flows, the long-term target tangible equity to tangible assets ratio, and the discount 
rate. Discount rates are unique to the reporting unit and are based upon the cost of capital specific to the industry in which 
the reporting unit operates. Management evaluated the sensitivity of the significant assumptions in its impairment analysis, 
including consideration of the effect of changes in estimated future cash flows or the discount rate for the reporting unit. 
Based  on  our  analysis,  we  determined  there  is  no  goodwill  impairment,  since  the  fair  value  for  the  reporting  unit  was  in 
excess of the respective reporting unit’s carrying value as of September 30, 2017.  

The second step (step 2) of impairment testing is necessary only if the reporting unit does not pass step 1. Step 2 compares 
the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of the goodwill for the reporting unit. The 
implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as goodwill that is recognized in a business combination. 
Significant judgment and estimates are involved in estimating the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit. 
Since the reporting unit did not fail step 1, step 2 was not applicable during 2017 testing. The Company monitored events 
and circumstances during the fourth quarter of 2017, and it determined that there were no triggering events requiring an 
updated impairment test as of December 31, 2017. 

Significant  judgment  is  applied  when  goodwill  is  assessed  for  impairment.  This  judgment  includes  developing  cash  flow 
projections, selecting appropriate discount rates, identifying relevant market comparables, incorporating general  economic 
and  market  conditions,  and  selecting  an  appropriate  control  premium.  Selection  and  weighting  of  the  various  fair  value 
techniques may result in a higher or lower fair value. Judgment is applied in determining the weightings most representative 
of fair value. 

Intangible  assets  are  amortized  or  tested  for  impairment  based  on  whether  they  have  finite  or  indefinite  lives.  Intangibles 
that have finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful life and tested for impairment whenever events or 
circumstances  indicate  the  carrying  amount  of  the  assets  may  not  be  recoverable.  The  useful  life  applied  to  amortize  the 
customer list intangible, which was created from the acquisition of Manry Rawls, is 15 years.  Note 6 provides additional 
information related to goodwill and other intangibles. 

Non-marketable equity securities - Non-marketable equity securities are restricted securities, carried at cost, and periodically 
evaluated for impairment.  These securities are restricted, do not have a readily determinable fair value, and lack a market.  
Because of the redemption provisions of the Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank stock, the Bank estimated 
that the fair value equaled or exceeded the cost of these investments and the investments were not impaired.  Equity method 
investments are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of 
the investment might not be recoverable.  No such impairment was identified in 2017.  

Mergers and acquisitions -  Mergers and acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method, as required by ASC 
805, Business Combinations. Under this method, the cost of the acquired entity will be allocated to the assets acquired and 
liabilities  assumed  based  on  their  fair  values  at  the  date  of  acquisition.  The  excess  of  the  cost  over  the  fair  value  of  the 
acquired net assets is recognized as goodwill.

Note 2 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

Income taxes - Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements, and consist 
of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of investment securities, deferred 
loan fees, allowance for loan losses, deferred compensation, interest on non-performing loans and accumulated depreciation 
for financial and income tax reporting.    

Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  recognized  for  the  future  tax  consequences  attributable  to  differences  between  the 
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and 
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary 
differences are expected to be recovered in income.  Deferred tax assets are reduced if it is more likely than not that the tax 
benefits will not be realized.   Management has evaluated all other tax positions that could have a significant effect on the 
financial statements and determined the Company had no uncertain income tax positions at December 31, 2017 and 2016.   
The years ending on or after December 31, 2014 remain subject to examination by federal and state tax authorities.  The 
Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. 

Deferred  compensation  plans  -  The  Company  maintains  deferred  compensation  and  retirement  arrangements  with  certain 
officers.  The Company's policy is to accrue the estimated amounts to be paid under the contracts over the expected period 
of active employment.  The Company purchased life insurance and annuity contracts to fund the expected liabilities under 
the contracts. 

Revenue recognition on insurance contracts – Insurance commission income is recorded as of the effective date of insurance 
coverage  or  the  billing  date,  whichever  is  later.  Contingent  commissions  are  recognized  when  determinable,  which  is 
generally when such commissions are received or when the Company receives data from the insurance companies that allows 
the reasonable estimation of these amounts. The income effects of subsequent premium and fee adjustments are recorded 
when the adjustments become known. 

Earnings  per  common  share  -  Basic  earnings  per  share  (EPS)  is  computed  by  dividing  income  available  to  common 
shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted earnings per share reflects the 
potential dilution if restricted stock, or other common stock equivalents, would result in the issuance of additional shares of 
common  stock  that  share  in  earnings.    Potential  common  shares  that  may  be  issued  by  the  Company  relate  solely  to 
outstanding non-vested restricted stock.   

Off-balance sheet financial instruments - In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into off-balance sheet 
financial  instruments  consisting  of  commitments  to  extend  credit,  commitments  under  credit  card  arrangements, 
commercial  letters  of  credit,  standby  letters  of  credit,  and  financial  guarantees  written.    Such  financial  instruments  are 
generally  recorded  in  the  financial  statements  when  they  become  payable.    A  reserve  for  these  off-balance  sheet  financial 
instruments is considered immaterial as is the fair value of the financial guarantees.   

Use  of  estimates  -  The  preparation  of  financial  statements  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and  assumptions  that 
affect  the  reported  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of  contingent  assets  and  liabilities  at  the  date  of  the 
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could 
differ from those estimates. 

Estimation of fair values - The following notes summarize the major methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair 
value of financial instruments: 

Short-term financial instruments are valued at their carrying amounts included in the Company’s balance sheet, which 
are reasonable estimates of fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity of the instruments.  This approach 
applies to cash and cash equivalents, deposits in other banks, federal funds sold, and short-term borrowings.

Note 2 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

Estimation of fair values (concluded) - Loans are valued on the basis of estimated future receipts of principal and interest, 
discounted at various rates.  Loan prepayments are assumed to occur at the same rate as in previous periods when interest 
rates  were  at  levels  similar  to  current  levels.    Future  cash  flows  for  homogeneous  categories  of  consumer  loans  are 
estimated  on  a  portfolio  basis  and  discounted  at  current  rates  offered  for  similar  loan  terms  to  new  borrowers  with 
similar credit profiles. A liquidity discount is not considered in determining the fair value of the loan portfolio.   

Investment  securities  are  valued  at  quoted  market  prices,  if  available.    The  fair  value  of  equity  investments  in  the 
restricted  stock  of  the  FRB  and  FHLB  approximates  the  carrying  value  due  to  the  redemptive  provisions  of  these 
securities.   

For unquoted securities, the fair value is estimated by the Company on the basis of financial and other information. 

The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.   

The fair value of demand deposits and deposits with no defined maturity is taken to be the amount payable on demand 
at the reporting date.  The fair value of fixed-maturity deposits is estimated using discounted cash flow analyses and rates 
currently  offered  for  deposits  of  similar  remaining  maturities.    The  intangible  value  of  long-term  relationships  with 
depositors is not taken into account in estimating the fair values disclosed. 

Fair  values  of  capital  notes  are  based  on  market  prices  for  debt  securities  having  similar  maturity  and  interest  rate 
characteristics.  The impact of the Company’s assessment of its own credit risk is not factored into the fair value of the 
notes.  

The  carrying  amounts  of  federal  funds  purchased  and  borrowings  under  repurchase  agreements  approximate  their  fair 
values.   

The fair values of the Company’s Federal Home Loan Bank advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses 
based on current rates offered on similar debt instruments.  

It  is  not  practicable  to  separately  estimate  the  fair  values  for  off-balance-sheet  credit  commitments,  including  standby 
letters  of  credit  and  guarantees  written,  due  to  the  lack  of  cost-effective,  reliable  measurement  methods  for  these 
instruments. 

Certain  significant  estimates  -  Material  estimates  that  are  particularly  susceptible  to  significant  change  relate  to  the 
determination of the allowance for losses on loans and the valuation of other real estate owned.  Management uses available 
information to recognize losses on loans and other real estate owned.  Future additions to the allowance may be necessary 
based  on  changes  in  local  economic  conditions  and  other  factors.    Management  believes  the  allowance  recorded  at 
December 31, 2017 and 2016 is sufficient to cover inherent losses in the portfolio.

Note 2 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

Recent accounting pronouncements - In August 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Updated (“ASU”) No. 2015-14, 
“Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606”.  This ASU is an update to the original ASU No. 2014-09 and the 
deferral  of  the  effective  date.    Both  ASU’s  apply  to  any  entity  using  U.S.  GAAP  that  either  enters  into  contracts  with 
customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts 
are within the scope of other standards.  The guidance supersedes the current revenue recognition requirements in Topic 
605, “Revenue Recognition.”  The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the 
transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects 
to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.  To be in alignment with the core principle, an entity must apply a 
five-step process including: identification of the contract(s) with a customer, identification of performance obligations in the 
contract(s), determination of the transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations, and 
recognition of revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. Additionally, the existing requirements for 
the recognition of a gain or loss on the transfer of nonfinancial assets that are not in a contract with a customer have also 
been  amended  to  be  consistent  with  the  guidance  on  recognition  and  measurement.    The  amendments  in  this  ASU  are 
effective  for  annual  reporting  periods  beginning  after  December  15,  2017  for  public  business  entities.    Early  adoption  is 
permitted  but  not  before  the  original  public  entity  effective  date,  i.e.  annual  periods  beginning  after  December  15, 2017.  
The  Company  will  apply  the  guidance  using  a  modified  retrospective  approach.    The  Company  does  not  expect  these 
amendments to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements. 

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting 
for Measurement-Period Adjustments.”  The ASU amended the Business Combinations topic to simplify the accounting for 
adjustments  made  to  provisional  amounts  recognized  in  a  business  combination  by  eliminating  the  requirement  to 
retrospectively account for those adjustments.  The amendments are effective for reporting period beginning after December 
15, 2015.  All entities are required to apply the amendments prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts that occur 
after  the  effective  date.    The  adoption  of  this  guidance  did  not  have  a  material  impact  on  the  Company’s  consolidated 
financial statements. 

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall: Subtopic 825-10: Recognition and 
Measurement  of  Financial  Assets  and  Financial  Liabilities.”    This  ASU  addresses  certain  aspects  of  recognition, 
measurement, presentation and disclosure.  The amendments in this ASU (1) require equity investments to be measured at 
fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (2) simplify the impairment assessment of equity investments 
without readily determinable fair value; (3) require public business entities to use exit prices, rather than entry prices, when 
measuring fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes; (4) require separate presentation of financial assets and 
financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial assets on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to 
the  financial  statements;  (5)  eliminate  the  requirement  to  disclose  the  method(s)  and  significant  assumptions  used  to 
estimate  the  fair  value  for  financial  statements  measured  at  amortized  cost  on  the  balance  sheet;  (6)  require  separate 
presentation in other comprehensive income of the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a 
change  in  the  instrument-specific  credit  risk  when  the  organization  has  elected  to  measure  the  liability  at  fair  value  in 
accordance  with  the  fair  value  option  for  financial  instruments;  and  (7)  state  that  a  valuation  allowance  on  deferred  tax 
assets  related  to  available-for-sale  securities  should  be  evaluated  in  combination  with  other  deferred  tax  assets.    The 
amendments  in  this  ASU  are  effective  for  public  business  entities  for  fiscal  years  beginning  after  December  15,  2017, 
including interim periods within those fiscal years.  The ASU only permits early adoption of the instrument-specific credit 
risk  provision.    The  Company  does  not  expect  the  adoption  of  this  ASU  to  have  a  material  impact  on  its  consolidated 
financial statements.

Note 2 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) 

February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).”  This ASU replaces ASC 840, “Leases” and was issued 
in order to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on 
the balance sheet for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP.  The ASU requires that a lessee should 
recognize  a  liability  to  make  lease  payments  (the  lease  liability)  and  a  right-of-use  asset  representing  its  right  to  use  the 
underlying asset for the lease term on the balance sheet.  For leases with a term of twelve months or less, a lessee is permitted 
to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities.  If a lessee 
makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a  straight-line basis over the lease term.  
The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years 
and  early  adoption  is  permitted.    The  Company  expects  to  adopt  this  ASU  using  the  modified  retrospective  method  and 
practical  expedients  for  transition.    The  practical  expedients  allow  the  Company  to  largely  account  for  existing  leases 
consistent  with  current  guidance  except  from  the  incremental  balance  sheet  recognition  for  lessees.    The  Company  has 
started  an  initial  evaluation  of  leasing  contracts  and  activities.    The  Company  has  started  to  develop  a  methodology  to 
estimate the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, which is based on the present value of lease payments.  The adoption of 
the ASU is not expected to have a material impact to the timing of expense recognition, but the Company will continue to 
evaluate  the  impact.    The  Company  is  currently  evaluating  existing  disclosures  and  may  need  to  provide  additional 
information as a result of the adoption of the ASU.  

In  June  2016,  the  FASB  issued  ASU  2016-13,  “Measurement  of  Credit  Losses  on  Financial  Instructions.”    This  ASU 
changes  the  way  entities  recognize  impairment  of  many  financial  assets  by  requiring  immediate  recognition  of  estimated 
credit losses  expected to occur over the remaining life.  The main  objective of this ASU is to provide financial  statement 
users  with  more  decision-useful  information  about  the  expected  credit  losses  on  financial  instruments  and  other 
commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date.  To achieve this objective, the amendments 
in  ASU  2016-13  replace  the  incurred  loss  impairment  methodology  in  current  GAAP  with  a  methodology  that  reflects 
expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader  range of reasonable and supportable information to inform 
credit loss estimates.  The changes are effective for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 
2020.  An entity may early adopt the standard for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 
2018.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard. 

In  August  2016,  the  FASB  issued  ASU  2016-15,  “Statement  of  Cash  Flow.”  This  ASU  is  intended  to  reduce  diversity  in 
practice  in  how  certain  transactions  are  classified  in  the  statement  of  cash  flows.  The  guidance  addresses:  (1)  debt 
prepayment  on  debt  extinguishment  costs;  (2)  settlement  of  zero-coupon  debt  instruments;  (3)  contingent  consideration 
payments made after a business combination; (4) proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; (5) proceeds from the 
settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, including bank-owned life insurance policies; (6) distributions received 
from  equity  method  investments;  (7)  beneficial  interest  in  securitizations  transactions;  and  (8)  separately  identifiable  cash 
flows  and  application  of  the  predominance  principle.  The  amendments  in  this  update  are  effective  for  public  business 
entities  for  fiscal  years  beginning  after  December  15,  2017  and  interim  periods  within  those  years.  Early  adoption  is 
permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard. 

In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-20, “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from 
Contracts with Customers.”  The corrections in this ASU is intended to make a limited number of revisions to several pieces 
of the revenue recognition standard issued in 2014.  The effective date and transition requirements for the technical corrects 
will be effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within 
those years.  Early application is not permitted.  The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect 
on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 - Summary of significant accounting policies (concluded) 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the test for 
Goodwill Impairment.  This ASU is intended to simplify goodwill impairment testing by eliminating the second step of the 
analysis  under  which  the  implied  fair  value  of  goodwill  is  determined  as  if  the  reporting  unit  were  being  acquired  in  a 
business combination.  The update instead requires entities to compare the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying 
amount and recognize an impairment charge for any amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair 
value, to the extent that the loss recognized does not exceed the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.  The 
amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019.  Early adoption is 
permitted.    The  Company  does  not  expect  the  amendments  to  the  standard  to  have  a  material  effect  on  its  consolidated 
financial statements. 

In February 2017, the FASB amended the “Other Income Topic of the Accounting Standards Codification” to clarify the 
scope of the guidance on nonfinancial asset derecognition as well as the accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. 
The amendments conform the derecognition  guidance on nonfinancial assets with the model for transactions in the new 
revenue standard. The amendments will be effective for the Company for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 
2017.  The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements. 

In  March  2017,  the  FASB  issued  ASU  No.  2017-08,  “Receivables-Nonrefundable  Fees  and  Other  Costs  (Topic  310-20), 
Premium  Amortization  on  Purchased  Callable  Debt  Securities.”    The  amendments  in  this  ASU  shorten  the  amortization 
period  for  certain  callable  debt  securities  purchased  at  a  premium.    Upon  adoption  of  the  standard,  premiums  on  these 
qualifying  callable  debt  securities  will  be  amortized  to  the  earliest  call  date.    Discounts  on  purchased  debt  securities  will 
continue to be accreted to maturity.  The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and 
interim  periods  within  those  fiscal  years.    Early  adoption  is  permitted,  including  adoption  in  an  interim  period.    Upon 
transition,  entities  should  apply  the  guidance  on  a  modified  retrospective  basis,  with  a  cumulative-effect  adjustment  to 
retained  earnings  as  of  assessing  the  impact  that  ASU  2017-08  will  have  on  its  consolidated  financial  statements.    The 
Company does not expect the amendments to the standard to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements. 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, “Compensation- Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification 
Accounting.”  The amendments provide guidance on determining which changes to the terms and conditions of share-based 
payment awards require an entity to apply modification under Topic 718.  The amendments are effective for all entities for 
annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017.  Early adoption 
is permitted.  The Company does not expect the amendments to the standard to have a material effect on its consolidated 
financial statements. 

In February 2018, the FASB Issued (2018-02), “Income Statement (Topic 220):  Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from 
Accumulated  Other  Comprehensive  Income”,  which  requires  Companies  to  reclassify  the  stranded  effects  in  other 
comprehensive income to retained earnings as a result of the change in the tax rates under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.  The 
Company has opted to early adopt this pronouncement by retrospective application to each period (or periods) in which the 
effect of the change in the tax rate under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is recognized.  The impact of the reclassification from 
other comprehensive income to retained earnings is $229,534.

Note 3 - Available-for-sale securities (concluded)   

State  and  municipal  -  The  Company’s  unrealized  losses  on  state  and  municipal  securities  were  caused  by  the  interest  rate 
fluctuations.  The severity and duration of these unrealized losses will fluctuate with interest rates in the economy.  Based on 
the credit quality of the issuers, and because of the Company’s intent to hold the securities until a market price recovery or 
maturity, and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities before their anticipated 
recovery, the Company does not consider these investments other than temporarily impaired.      

Residential  mortgage-backed  securities  and  collateralized  mortgage  obligations  -  The  Company’s  unrealized  losses  on  residential 
mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations were caused by the interest rate fluctuations.  The severity 
and duration of these unrealized losses will fluctuate with interest rates in the economy.  Our mortgage-related securities are 
backed  by  the  Federal  National  Mortgage  Association  (“FNMA”)  and  the  Federal  Home  Loan  Mortgage  Corporation 
(“FHLMC”), which are Government Sponsored Entities (“GSE”) or are collateralized by securities backed by these agencies. 
The Company intends to hold the securities until a market price recovery or maturity, and it is more likely than not that the 
Company will not be required to sell these securities before their anticipated recovery.  Because of the preceding factors the 
Company does not consider these investments other than temporarily impaired.      

At  December  31,  2017  and  2016,  securities  with  a  carrying  value  of  approximately  $52,883,572  and  $33,536,180, 
respectively, were pledged to the Commonwealth of Virginia to secure public deposits.  In addition, at December 31, 2017 
and 2016, securities with a carrying value of $7,312,036 and $7,880,087, respectively, were pledged to the Federal Home  
Loan Bank to secure advances.  Investment securities with  carrying values of $3,054,577 and $3,263,403 were pledged to

Real Estate Loans - Real estate loans include construction and land development loans, commercial real estate loans, home 
equity lines of credit, multi-family and residential mortgages.   

Construction/development lending totaled $35.8 million and $37.2 million at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  
The Bank originates one-to-four family residential construction loans for the construction of custom homes (where the home 
buyer is the borrower) and provides financing to builders and consumers for the construction of homes.  The Bank generally 
receives  a  pre-arranged  permanent  financing  commitment  from  an  outside  banking  entity  prior  to  financing  the 
construction  of  pre-sold  homes.    The  Bank  also  makes  commercial  real  estate  construction  loans,  primarily  for  owner-
occupied  properties.    The  Bank  limits  its  construction  lending  risk  through  adherence  to  established  underwriting 
procedures.  Residential one-to-four family loans amounted to $40.7 million and $40.7 million at December 31, 2017 and 
2016, respectively.  

Commercial real estate loans totaled $96.3 million and $102.0 million at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  This 
lending has involved loans secured by owner-occupied commercial buildings for office, storage and warehouse space, as well 
as  non-owner  occupied  commercial  buildings.  The  Bank  generally  requires  the  personal  guaranty  of  borrowers  and  a 
demonstrated cash flow capability sufficient to service the debt.  Loans secured by commercial real estate may be larger in 
size and may involve a greater degree of risk than one-to-four family residential mortgage loans.  Payments on such loans are 
often dependent on successful operation or management of the properties. 

Multifamily  loans  totaled  $4.6  million  and  $4.9  million  at  December  31,  2017  and  2016,  respectively.    These  loans  are 
residential housing projects containing five or more rental units.  Traditional multifamily projects charge market rents and 
are located in both city and suburban markets.  Equity lines of credit are open-ended revolving lines of credit secured by the 
equity in a borrower’s residence.  Equity lines of credit totaled $13.3 million and $12.7 million at December 31, 2017 and 
2016, respectively.

Note 4 – Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses (continued) 

Commercial  and  Industrial  Loans  -  At  December  31,  2017  and  2016,  the  Bank’s  commercial  loan  portfolio  totaled  $55.9 
million and $46.1 million, respectively.  Commercial loans include both secured and unsecured loans for working capital, 
expansion,  and  other  business  purposes.    Short-term  working  capital  loans  are  secured  by  accounts  receivable,  inventory 
and/or equipment.  The Bank also makes term commercial loans secured by equipment and real estate.  Lending decisions 
are  based  on  an  evaluation  of  the  financial  strength,  cash  flow,  management  and  credit  history  of  the  borrower,  and  the 
quality  of  the  collateral  securing  the  loan.    With  few  exceptions,  the  Bank  requires  personal  guarantees  and  secondary 
sources of repayment.  Commercial loans generally provide greater yields and re-price more frequently than other types of 
loans, such as real estate loans.   

Agricultural Loans – Agricultural loans totaled $23.8 million and $20.9 million at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively 
and include loans secured by farm equipment, inventory and farm land.  Lending decisions are based on an evaluation of 
the financial strength, cash flow, management and credit history of the borrower, and the quality of the collateral securing 
the loan.  Payments on such loans are often dependent on successful operation or management of the farming operation. 

Loans  to  Individuals  -  Loans  to  individuals  (consumer  loans)  include  automobile  loans,  boat  and  recreational  vehicle 
financing, and miscellaneous secured and unsecured personal loans and totaled $1.9 million and $1.5 million at December 
31,  2017  and  2016,  respectively.    Overdrafts  totaling  $24  thousand  and  $23  thousand  at  December  31,  2017  and  2016, 
respectively, were reclassified from deposits to loans and are also classified in loans to individual.  Consumer loans generally 
can carry significantly greater risks than other loans, even if secured, if the collateral consists of rapidly depreciating assets 
such  as  automobiles  and  equipment.    Repossessed  collateral  securing  a  defaulted  consumer  loan  may  not  provide  an 
adequate source of repayment of the loan.  Consumer loan collections are sensitive to job loss, illness and other personal 
factors.    The  Bank  manages  the  risks  inherent  in  consumer  lending  by  following  established  credit  guidelines  and 
underwriting practices designed to minimize risk of loss. 

Loan Approvals - The Bank’s loan policies and procedures establish the basic guidelines governing its lending operations.  The 
guidelines  address  the  type  of  loans  that  the  Bank  seeks,  target  markets,  underwriting  and  collateral  requirements,  terms, 
interest  rate  and  yield  considerations  and  compliance  with  laws  and  regulations.    All  loans  or  credit  lines  are  subject  to 
approval procedures and amount limitations.  These limitations apply to the borrower’s total outstanding indebtedness to 
the Bank, including any indebtedness as a guarantor. The policies are reviewed and approved at least annually by the Board 
of Directors of the Bank.  The Bank supplements its own supervision of the loan underwriting and approval process with 
periodic loan reviews by independent, outside professionals experienced in loan review.  Responsibility for loan review and 
loan  underwriting  resides  with  the  Chief Credit  Officer  position.    This  position  is  responsible  for  loan  underwriting  and 
approval.  On an annual basis, the Board of Directors of the Bank determines officers’ lending authority.  Authorities may 
include  loans,  letters  of  credit,  overdrafts,  uncollected  funds  and  such  other  authorities  as  determined  by  the  Board  of 
Directors. 

Substantially all of the Bank's loans have been granted to customers in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia. 

Credit Review and Evaluation - The Bank outsources the credit risk review function which reports to the Board of Directors.  
The  focus  of  the  engagement  is  on  policy  compliance  and  proper  grading  of  higher  credit  risk  loans  as  well  as  new  and 
existing loans on a sample basis. Additional reporting for problem/criticized assets has been developed along with an after-
the-fact loan review.  

The Bank uses a risk grading program to facilitate the evaluation of probable inherent loan losses and the adequacy of the 
allowance for loan losses.  In this program, risk grades are initially assigned by loan officers, reviewed by the Chief Credit 
Officer and reviewed by credit review analysts on a test basis.  The Bank strives to maintain the loan portfolio in accordance 
with conservative loan underwriting policies that result in loans specifically tailored to the needs of the Bank’s market area.  
Every effort is made to identify and minimize the credit risks associated with such lending strategies.

Note 4 - Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses (continued)  

Credit Review and Evaluation (concluded) - All loans are risk graded on a scale from 1 (highest quality) to 9 (loss).  Acceptable 
loans  at  inception  are  grades  1  through  5.  These  grades  have  underwriting  requirements  that  at  least  meet  the  minimum 
requirements of a secondary market source.  If borrowers do not meet credit history requirements, other mitigating criteria 
such as substantial liquidity and low loan-to-value ratios could be considered and would generally have to be met in order to 
make  the  loan.    The  Bank’s  loan  policy  states  that  a  guarantor  may  be  necessary  if  reasonable  doubt  exists  as  to  the 
borrower’s ability to repay.   

The  Board  of  Directors  has  authorized  the  loan  officers  to  have  individual  approval  authority  for  risk  grade  1  through  5 
loans up to maximum exposure limits for each customer.  New or renewed loans that are graded 6 (special mention) or lower 
must  have  approval  from  the  Chief  Credit  Officer  and  Chief  Lending  Officer.  Any  changes  in  risk  assessments  as 
determined by loan officers, credit administrators, regulatory examiners and management are also considered.   

The risk grades, normally assigned by the loan officers when the loan is originated and reviewed by the Chief Credit Officer, 
are  based  on  several  factors  including  historical  data,  current  economic  factors,  composition  of  the  portfolio,  and 
evaluations of the total loan portfolio and  assessments of credit quality within specific loan types.  In some cases the risk 
grades  are  assigned  by  the  Chief  Credit  Officer  or  the Chief  Lending  Officer,  depending  upon  dollar  exposure.    Because 
these factors are dynamic, the provision for loan losses can fluctuate.  Credit quality reviews are based primarily on analyses 
of borrowers’ cash flows, with asset values considered only as a second source of payment.   Credit analysts work with lenders 
in underwriting, structuring and risk grading the Bank’s credits.  The Chief Lending Officer and the Chief Credit Officer 
focus on lending policy compliance, credit risk grading, and credit risk reviews on larger dollar exposures.  Management uses 
the information developed from the procedures above in evaluating and grading the loan portfolio.  This continual grading 
process is used to monitor the credit quality of the loan portfolio and to assist management in determining the appropriate 
levels of the allowance for loan losses.  The following is a summary of the credit risk grade definitions for all loan types: 

“1” — Prime – Credits in this category are virtually risk-free and are well-collateralized by cash or cash-equivalent instruments 
held by the Bank. The repayment program is well-defined and achievable, and repayment sources are numerous. No material 
documentation deficiencies or exceptions exist. 

“2”  —  Good  –  This  grade  is  reserved  for  loans  secured  by  readily  marketable  collateral,  or  loans  within  guidelines  to 
borrowers  with  liquid  financial  statements.  A  liquid  financial  statement  is  generally  a  financial  statement  with  substantial 
liquid  assets,  particularly  relative  to  the  debts.  These  loans  have  excellent  sources  of  repayment,  with  no  significant 
identifiable risk of collection, and conform in all respects to Bank policy, guidelines, underwriting standards, and Federal 
and State regulations (no exceptions of any kind). 

“3”  —  Acceptable  1  –  This  grade  is  reserved  for  the  Bank’s  high-quality  loans.  These  loans  have  excellent  sources  of 
repayment, with no significant identifiable risk of collection. Generally, loans assigned this risk grade will demonstrate the 
following characteristics: 

 Conformity in all respects with Bank policy, guidelines, underwriting standards, and Federal and State regulations 

(no exceptions of any kind). 

 Documented  historical  cash  flow  that  meets  or  exceeds  required  minimum  Bank  guidelines,  or  that  can  be 

supplemented with verifiable cash flow from other sources. 

 Adequate secondary sources to liquidate the debt, including combinations of liquidity, liquidation of collateral, or 

liquidation value to the net worth of the borrower or guarantor.

Note 4 - Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses (continued)  

 “4” — Acceptable 2 – This grade is given to acceptable loans. These loans have adequate sources of repayment, with little 
identifiable risk of collection. Loans assigned this risk grade will demonstrate the following characteristics: 

 General conformity to the Bank's underwriting requirements, with limited exceptions to the Bank's policy, product 
or underwriting guidelines. All exceptions noted have documented mitigating factors that offset any additional risk 
associated with the exceptions noted. 

 Documented  historical  cash  flow  that  meets  or  exceeds  required  minimum  Bank  guidelines,  or  that  can  be 

supplemented with verifiable cash flow from other sources. 

 Adequate secondary sources to liquidate the debt, including combinations of liquidity, liquidation of collateral, or 

liquidation value to the net worth of the borrower or guarantor. 

 “5”  —  Weak  Pass  –  This  grade  is  given  to  acceptable  loans  that  show  signs  of  weakness  in  either  adequate  sources  of 
repayment  or  collateral,  but  have  demonstrated  mitigating  factors  that  minimize  the  risk  of  delinquency  or  loss.  Loans 
assigned this grade may demonstrate some or all of the following characteristics: 

 Additional exceptions to the Bank's policy requirements, product guidelines or underwriting standards that present 
a higher degree of risk to the Bank. Although the combination and/or severity of identified exceptions is greater for 
this  risk  grade,  the  exceptions  may  be  properly  mitigated  by  other  documented  factors  that  offset  any  additional 
risks. 

 Unproved, insufficient or marginal primary sources of repayment that appear sufficient to service the debt at this 
time. Repayment weaknesses may be due to minor operational issues, financial trends, or reliance on projected (not 
historic) performance. 

 Marginal or unproven secondary sources to liquidate the debt, including combinations of liquidation of collateral 

and liquidation value to the net worth of the borrower or guarantor. 

“6” — Special Mention – Special Mention loans include the following characteristics:  






Loans with underwriting guideline tolerances and/or exceptions and with no mitigating factors;  
Extending loans that are currently performing satisfactorily but with potential weaknesses that may, if not corrected, 
weaken the asset or inadequately protect the Bank's position at some future date. Potential weaknesses are the result 
of deviations from prudent lending practices; or  
Loans  where  adverse  economic  conditions  have  developed  subsequent  to  the  loan  origination  that  do  not 
jeopardize liquidation of the debt, but do substantially increase the level of risk, may also warrant this rating. 

“7” — Substandard – A substandard loan is inadequately protected by the current sound net worth and paying capacity of 
the  obligor  or  of  the  collateral  pledged,  if  any.  Loans  classified  as  substandard  must  have  a  well-defined  weakness  or 
weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt; they are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution 
will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.  Loans consistently not meeting the repayment schedule should be 
downgraded to substandard. Loans in this category are characterized by deterioration in quality exhibited by any number of 
well-defined weaknesses requiring corrective action. The weaknesses may include, but are not limited to: 

 High debt to worth ratios 
 Declining or negative earnings trends 
 Declining or inadequate liquidity 
 Questionable repayment sources 

 Unfavorable competitive comparisons. 

Lack of well-defined secondary repayment source, and 

Such loans are no longer considered to be adequately protected due to the borrower's declining net worth, lack of earnings 
capacity, declining collateral margins and/or unperfected collateral positions. A possibility of loss of a portion of the loan 
balance cannot be ruled out. The repayment ability of the borrower is marginal or weak and the loan may have exhibited 
excessive overdue status or extensions and/or renewals.

“8” — Doubtful – Loans classified Doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified Substandard, plus the added 
characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, 
and values highly questionable and improbable. However, these loans are not yet rated as loss because certain events may 
occur which would salvage the debt. Among these events are: 


Injection of capital 
 Alternative financing 


Liquidation of assets or the pledging of additional collateral. 

The ability of the borrower to service the debt is extremely weak, overdue status is constant, the debt has been placed on 
non-accrual status, and no definite repayment schedule exists.  Doubtful is a temporary grade where a loss is expected but is 
presently not quantified with any degree of accuracy. Once the loss position is determined, the amount is charged off. 

 “9” — Loss – Loans classified Loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable 
assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather 
that it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off the loan even though partial recovery may be effected in the future.  
Probable Loss portions of problem assets should be charged against the Allowance for Loan Losses. Loans may reside in this 
classification for administrative purposes for a period not to exceed the earlier of thirty (30) days or calendar quarter-end.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 
For Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 

Note 4 - Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses (continued) 

The  restructured  loans  generally  include  terms  to  reduce  the  interest  rate  and  extend  payment  terms.  The  Bank  did  not 
forgive any principal associated with any of the above loans during 2017 or 2016. Within the last 12 months, no loans that 
were  restructured  in  2016  or  2015,  subsequently  defaulted  and  were  foreclosed  upon.    These  modifications  resulted  in 
specific reserves in the Bank’s allowance for loan losses of $-0- as of December 31, 2017 and 2016.    

Troubled Debt Restructurings (concluded) - There were two TDRs that were on non-accrual status and have an unpaid principal 
balance of $325,411 as of December 31, 2017.   There were two TDRs that were on non-accrual status and had an unpaid 
principal balance of $836,041 as of December 31, 2016. Nine TDRs with a current principal balance of $1.3 million and 
fifteen  TDRs  with  current  principal  balance  of  $5.4  million  were  considered  performing  loans  and  are  accruing  interest 
based on their sustained payment performance as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.    

The specific reserve portion of the allowance for loan losses on TDRs is determined by discounting the restructured cash 
flows at the original effective rate of the loan before modification or is based on the underlying collateral value less costs to 
sell, if repayment of the loan is collateral-dependent. If the resulting amount is less than the recorded book value, the Bank 
either establishes a valuation allowance as a component of the allowance for loan losses or charges off the impaired balance 
if it determines that such amount is a confirmed loss. This method is used consistently for all segments of the portfolio.  

Other real estate owned -  At December 31, 2017 and 2016 the Company held $15,000 and $50,160, respectively of foreclosed 
residential  real  estate.    The  recorded  investment  in  one-to-four  family  residential  loans  secured  by  residential  real  estate 
properties where formal foreclosure procedures were in process as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $-0-.  The remaining 
balance of other real estate owned consists of construction and commercial real estate properties.   

Impaired  Loans  -  Management  considers  certain  loans  graded  “doubtful”  (loans  graded  8)  or  “loss”  (loans  graded  9)  to  be 
individually  impaired  and  may  consider  “substandard”  loans  (loans  graded  7)  individually  impaired  depending  on  the 
borrower’s payment history.  Any loans classified as troubled debt restructurings regardless of loan grade are also classified as 
impaired loans.   The Bank measures impairment based upon discounted expected cash flows or the value of the collateral.  
Collateral  value  is  assessed  based  on  collateral  value  trends,  liquidation  value  trends,  and  other  liquidation  expenses  to 
determine logical and credible discounts that may be needed.   Updated appraisals are required for all impaired loans and 
typically at renewal or modification of larger loans if the appraisal is more than 12 months old.  

Impaired loans for all classes of loans typically include nonaccrual loans, loans over 90 days past due still accruing, troubled 
debt restructured loans and other problem loans considered impaired based on other underlying factors.   Potential problem 
loans  totaled  $2.4  million  and  $8.1  million  as  of  December  31,  2017  and  2016,  respectively.    These  totals  include  loans 
which are currently performing and are not included in nonaccrual or restructured loans above, but about which we have 
serious doubts as to the borrower’s ability to comply with present repayment terms.  These loans are likely to be included 
later  in  nonaccrual,  past  due  or  troubled  debt  restructured  loans,  so  they  are  considered  by  management  in  assessing  the 
adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. No additional funds are committed to be advanced in connection with impaired 
loans.

Allowance for Loan Losses - The allowance for loan losses is a reserve established through a provision for loan losses charged to 
expense,  which  represents  management’s  best  estimate  for  probable  losses  that  have  been  incurred  within  the  existing 
portfolio  of  loans.    The  primary  risks  inherent  in  the  Bank’s  loan  portfolio,  including  the  adequacy  of  the  allowance  or 
reserve for loan losses, are based on management’s assumptions regarding, among other factors, general and local economic 
conditions, which are difficult to predict and are beyond the Bank’s control.  In estimating these risks, and the related loss  
reserve  levels,  management  also  considers  the  financial  conditions  of  specific  borrowers  and  credit  concentrations  with 
specific borrowers, groups of borrowers, and industries.

Note 4 - Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses (continued)  

The  allowance  for  loan  losses  is  adjusted  by  direct  charges  to  provision  expense.  Losses  on  loans  are  charged  against  the 
allowance  for  loan  losses  in  the  accounting  period  in  which  they  are  determined  by  management  to  be  uncollectible. 
Recoveries  during  the  period  are  credited  to  the  allowance  for  loan  losses.  The  Bank  realized  no  provisions  for  the  years 
ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  The provision expense is determined by the Bank’s allowance for loan 
losses model.  The components of the model are specific reserves for impaired loans and a general allocation for unimpaired 
loans.  The general allocation has three components, an estimate based on historical loss experience, an additional estimate 
based  on  internal  and  external  environmental  factors  due  to  the  uncertainty  of  historical  loss  experience  in  predicting 
current embedded losses in the portfolio that will be realized in the future and an unallocated portion to cover uncertainties 
that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses.     

In determining the general allowance allocation, the ratios from the actual loss history for the various categories are applied 
to the homogeneous pools of loans in each category.  

The portion of the general allocation on environmental factors includes estimates of losses related to the following: 

 Current national and local economic conditions 
 Composition of the nature and volume of the portfolio 
 Changes in the trend or volume of past due, watch list and classified loans 




The existence and effect of concentrations or changes in concentrations upon the portfolio 
The existence and effect of granularity in the size of credits in the portfolio 
The existence and effect of loan to values in excess of regulatory guidance – percentage of loans in each category 
with regulatory exceptions 

 Cumulative effect of other factors such as loan portfolio quality, underwriting strength and general determinations 

about the portfolio held by executive management. 

Markets  served  by  the  Bank  continue  to  experience  some  uncertainty  from  the  general  economy  and  a  slow  real  estate 
market.  Other factors impacting the allowance at December 31, 2017 were watch list trends, unemployment rate trends, 
government spending expectations and underwriting and servicing assessments.   

The following table’s present changes in the allowance for loan losses for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016: 

Mortgage loans on real estate:

Construction
Commercial real estate:
Non-owner occupied 
Owner occupied

Note 9 – Capital notes  

During  the  fourth  quarter  of  2013,  the  Company  closed  the  private  placement  of  unregistered  debt  securities  (the  “2013 
Offering”)  pursuant  to  which  the  Company  issued  approximately  $11.3  million  in  principal  of  notes  (the  “2013  Notes”).  
The 2013 Notes were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and could not be offered or sold in the United States 
absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.  The 2013 Notes bore interest at the rate of 
5% per year with interest payable quarterly in arrears.  The 2013 Notes had a maturity date of December 31, 2018, but were 
subject  to  prepayment  in  whole  or  in  part  on  or  after  December  31,  2014  at  the  Company’s  sole  discretion  on  30  days 
written notice to the holders.  There were no assets pledged as collateral for the 2013 Notes.   

During 2017, the Company fully repaid the outstanding balance of the 2013 Offering totaling, $7.9 million at the original 
investment  price  to  reduce  debt  service  obligations.    During  2016,  $2.04  million  of  capital  notes  were  repaid  to 
accommodate investor’s liquidity needs and to reduce our debt service obligations.  Of the capital notes redeemed in 2016, 
$600,000  were  redeemed  at  a  premium  price  of  102%,  equating  to  total  premium  paid  of  $12,000.    An  additional  $1.4 
million of capital notes were redeemed at the original investment price during 2016.   

During the second quarter of 2017, the Company closed the private placement of unregistered debt securities (the “2017 
Offering”) pursuant to which the Company issued $6.0 million in principal of notes (the “2017 Notes”).  The 2017 Notes 
have not been and will  not  be registered  under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in the United 
States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.  The 2017 Notes bear interest at the 
rate of 3.25% per year with interest payable quarterly in arrears.  The 2017 Notes mature on March 31, 2022, but are subject 
to prepayment in whole or in part on or after March 31, 2018 at the Company’s sole discretion on 30 days written notice to 
the holders.  There are no assets pledged as collateral for the  2017 Notes.  Of these capital notes, $-0- is due to executive 
officers and board members of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Note 10 - Securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other borrowings 

The Bank utilizes securities sold under agreement to repurchase to facilitate the needs of customers.  Securities sold under 
agreements to repurchase, are classified as secured borrowings, generally mature within one day from the transaction date. 
Securities  sold  under  agreements  to  repurchase  are  reflected  at  the  amount  of  cash  received  in  connection  with  the 
transaction. The average interest rate was 0.50% during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. 

The Bank monitors collateral levels on a continuous basis and maintains records of each transaction specifically describing 
the applicable security and the customer’s fractional interest in that security, and the Bank segregates the security from its 
general  assets  in  accordance  with  regulations  governing  custodial  holding  of  securities.    The  primary  risk  with  the  Bank’s 
repurchase agreements is market risk associated with the investments securing the transactions, as the Bank may be required 
to provide additional collateral based on  air value changes of  the underlying investments.  Securities pledged as collateral 
under  repurchase  agreements  are  maintained  with  the  Bank’s  safekeeping  agent.    The  carrying  value  of  available  for  sale 
investment  securities  pledged  as  collateral  under  repurchase  agreement  was  $3,054,577  and  $3,263,403  at  December  31, 
2017 and 2016, respectively. 

The  remaining  contractual  maturity  of  the  securities  sold  under  agreements  to  repurchase  by  class  of  collateral  pledged 
included in short-term borrowings in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 is

Note 11 - Employee benefit plans 

Profit sharing plan - The Company has a profit sharing plan covering substantially all employees. Contributions to the plan 
are determined annually by the Compensation Committee and are the lesser of 10% of the participants' base compensation 
or 10% of the net income of the Bank.  Employee benefits expense included $476,116 and $400,010 for the plan for 2017 
and 2016, respectively. 

Post-retirement  benefits  -  The  Company  has  entered  into  deferred  compensation  arrangements  with  certain  key  personnel 
which call for the payment of benefits upon the retirement or death of the individuals.  In 2016, the Company amended 
one  of  these  plans  and  froze  the  other  plan  while  creating  a  new  plan  for  this  executive,  such  that  upon  the  executives’ 
retirement, the Company will provide for a monthly retirement payment for their lifetime.  The agreements provide that a 
retirement benefit is payable upon a defined normal retirement age while in service to the Company and a lesser benefit is 
payable upon early retirement.  Other benefits are payable upon disability, death or change in control. 

The agreements are unfunded arrangements maintained primarily to provide supplemental retirement benefits and comply 
with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

 Note 11 - Employee benefit plans (concluded)  

However, the Company has elected to finance the retirement benefits by purchasing annuities that have been designed to 
provide a future source of funds for the lifetime retirement benefits of the agreements.  The primary impetus for utilizing 
these  annuities  is  a  substantial  savings  in  compensation  expense  for  the  Company  as  opposed  to  a  typically  designed 
supplemental retirement plan. 

The liabilities associated with these deferred compensation arrangements were $1,434,054 and $1,323,644 as of December 
31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  The annuity had a balance of $3,028,689 and $3,026,890 as of December 31, 2017 and 
2016,  respectively,  and  is  recorded  at  amortized  cost.    Salaries  and  employee  benefits  expense  included  $114,410  and 
$86,715 of expense related to these arrangements for 2017 and 2016, respectively. 

Note 12 - Income taxes 

On December 22, 2017 the President of the United States signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “2017 Tax Act”).  
The  2017  Tax  Act  includes  a  number  of  changes  to  existing  U.S.  tax  laws  that  impact  the  Company,  most  notably  a 
reduction of the U.S. corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent for tax years beginning after December 31, 
2017. 

The Company recognized the income tax  effects of the 2017 Tax Act in its 2017 financial statements in accordance with 
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, which provides guidance for the application of ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, in the 
reporting  period  in  which  the  2017  Tax  Act  was  signed  into  law.    As  such,  the  Company’s  financial  results  reflect  the 
income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act for which the accounting under ASC Topic 740 is complete and provisional amounts 
for those specific income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act for which the accounting under ASC Topic 740 is incomplete but a 
reasonable estimate could be determined.  The Company did not identify items for which the income tax effects of the 2017 
Tax Act have been completed and a reasonable estimate could not be determined as of December 31, 2017. 

The principal components of the income tax expense as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 are as follows:

Federal - deferred (benefit)

were remeasured to reflect the reduction in the U.S. corporate income tax rate from 34 percent to 21 percent, resulting in a 
$209,879 increase in income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2017 and a corresponding $209,879 decrease in 
net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2017. 

In  assessing  the  realizability  of  deferred  tax  assets,  management  considers  whether  it  is  more  likely  than  not  that  some 
portion  or  all  of  the  deferred  tax  asset  will  not  be  realized.    Management  considers  recoverable  taxes  paid  in  prior  years, 
projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.  It is management’s belief that the 
realization of the net deferred tax assets is more likely than not. 

The Company has analyzed the tax positions taken or expected to be taken in its tax returns and concluded it has no liability 
related to uncertain tax positions.   

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns with the federal government.   With few exceptions, the Company 
is no longer subject to federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2014.

Note 14 - Related party transactions 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company has loan and deposit transactions with its executive officers and directors, 
and  with  companies  in  which  the  officers  and  directors  have  a  significant  financial  interest.    These  transactions  are  at 
substantially the same rates as similarly situated customers.  A summary of related party loan activity during 2017 and 2016 
is as follows: 

Beginning balance, January 1

Business Combination.  This loan is at substantially the same terms as similarly situated customers.  See Note 8 for additional 
disclosures of related party transactions.   

Note 15 - Credit commitments and concentrations of credit risk 

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend funds to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition 
established in the contract.  Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require

Note 15 - Credit commitments and concentrations of credit risk (concluded) 

payment  of  a  fee.    The  commitments  for  equity  lines  of  credit  may  expire  without  being  drawn  upon.    Therefore,  the  total 
commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.  The amount of collateral obtained, if it is  

deemed necessary by the Bank, is based on management's credit evaluation of the customer.  Unfunded commitments under 
commercial  lines  of  credit,  revolving  credit  lines  and  overdraft  protection  agreements  are  commitments  for  possible  future 
extensions of credit to existing customers.  These lines of credit are uncollateralized, usually do not contain a specified maturity 
date and may not be drawn upon to the total extent to which the Bank is committed. 

Commercial and standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of 
a  customer  to  a  third  party.    Those  letters  of  credit  are  primarily  issued  to  support  public  and  private  borrowing 
arrangements.  Essentially all letters of credit issued have expiration dates within one year.   

The  credit  risk  involved  in  issuing  letters  of  credit  is  essentially  the  same  as  that  involved  in  extending  loan  facilities  to 
customers.  The Bank generally holds collateral supporting those commitments if deemed necessary. 

The Bank also has commitments, as detailed below, to invest in a private investment fund that focuses on investments and 
partnerships with middle market businesses that need capital for growth.   

The amounts of loan commitments, guarantees and standby letters of credit are set out in the following table as of December 
31,  2017  and  2016.    Because  many  commitments  and  almost  all  standby  letters  of  credit  and  guarantees  expire  without 
being  funded  in  whole  or  in  part,  the  contract  amounts  are  not  estimates  of  future  cash  flows.    A  summary  of  loan 
commitments and standby letters of credit is as follows: 

Loan commitments
Standby letters of credit and guarantees written
Capital commitment to private investment funds

2017
 $     65,759,153 
 $          440,787 
 $       1,550,000 

2016
 $     59,231,100 
 $          359,038 
 $       1,850,000 

Standby letters of credit outstanding at December 31, 2017 expire between 2018 and 2020.

Loan  commitments,  standby  letters  of  credit  and  written  guarantees  have  off-balance  sheet  credit  risk  because  only 
origination  fees  and  accruals  for  probable  losses,  if  any,  are  recognized  in  the  statements  of  financial  position  until  the 
commitments are fulfilled or the standby letters of credit or guarantees expire. Credit risk represents the accounting loss that 
would  be  recognized  at  the  reporting  date  if  counterparties  failed  completely  to  perform  as  contracted.    The  credit  risk 
amounts are equal to the contractual amounts, assuming that the amounts are fully advanced and collateral or other security 
is of no value. The Bank's policy is to require customers to provide collateral prior to the disbursement of approved loans.  
For retail loans, the Bank usually retains a security interest in the property or products financed, which provides repossession 
rights in the event of default by the customer.  For business loans and financial guarantees, collateral is usually in the form 
of inventory or marketable securities (held in trust) or property (notations on title). 

Concentrations of credit risk (whether on or off-balance sheet) arising from financial instruments exist in relation to certain 
groups of customers.  A group concentration arises when a number of counterparties have similar economic characteristics 
that  would  cause  their  ability  to  meet  contractual  obligations  to  be  similarly  affected  by  changes  in  economic  or  other 
conditions.  A group concentration exists as most of the Bank's customers are located within southeastern Virginia. 

The  credit  risk  amounts  represent  the  maximum  accounting  loss  that  would  be  recognized  at  the  reporting  date  if 
counterparties failed completely to perform as contracted and any collateral or security proved to be of no value.  The Bank 
has experienced little difficulty in accessing collateral when required.

Note 16 - Regulatory matters 

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies.  Failure to meet 
minimum  capital  requirements  can  initiate  certain  mandatory,  and  possibly  additional  discretionary  actions  by  regulators 
that,  if  undertaken,  could  have  a  direct  material  effect  on  the  Bank's  consolidated  financial  statements.    Under  capital 
adequacy  guidelines  and  the  regulatory  framework  for  prompt  corrective  action,  the  Bank  must  meet  specific  capital 
guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated 
under  regulatory  accounting  practices.    The  Bank's  capital  amounts  and  classification  are  also  subject  to  qualitative 
judgments by the regulators about components, risk weighting, and other factors. 

In July 2013, the FDIC and other federal banking agencies approved the final rules implementing the Basel Committee on 
Banking Supervision’s capital guidelines for U.S. banks (commonly known as Basel III).   

On  January  1,  2015,  the  Company  became  subject  to  the  Basel  III  Capital  Rules  which  revises  definitions  of  regulatory 
capital, the new minimum regulatory capital ratios, and various regulatory capital adjustments and deductions according to 
transition provision and timelines.  The revised rules now require the bank to maintain (i) a minimum ratio of Common 
Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 4.5%, plus 2.5% “capital conservation buffer” (conservation buffer will be 
phased in), (ii) minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 6.0%, (iii) a minimum ratio of total capital 
to  risk-weighted  assets  of  at  8.0%,  and  (iv)  a  minimum  leverage  ratio  of  4.0%.    A  transition  period  for  the  capital 
conservation buffer under Basel III for all banking organizations began on January 1, 2016 and ends on January 1, 2019.  
The conservation buffer began at the 0.625% level and is phased in over a four-year period (increasing on each subsequent 
January 1, until it reaches 2.5% on January 1, 2019).  As of January 1, 2018, the capital conservation buffer was 6.036%. 

Management believes, as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to  which it is 
subject. 

As  of  December  31,  2017,  the  most  recent  notification  from  the  Board  of  Governors  of  the  Federal  Reserve  Board 
categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.  To be categorized as 
well capitalized the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, Common Equity risk-based, and Tier I 
leverage ratios as set forth in the table.  There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes 
have changed the institution's category. 

The Bank's actual capital amounts (dollars in thousands) and ratios are presented in the table below:

The above tables set forth the capital position and analysis for the Bank only.  Because total assets on a consolidated basis 
are  less  than  $500  million,  the  Company  is  not  subject  to  the  consolidated  capital  requirements  imposed  by  the  Bank 
Holding  Company  Act.    Consequently,  the  Company  does  not  calculate  its  financial  ratios  on  a  consolidated  basis.    If 
calculated, the capital ratios for the Company on a consolidated basis would no longer be comparable to the capital ratios of 
the Bank because the proceeds of the capital notes do not qualify as equity capital on a consolidated basis.   

Note 17 - Fair value measurements  

The  Company  refers  to  the  Fair  Value  Measurements  and  Disclosures  Topic  of  the  FASB  Accounting  Standards 
Codification  (ASC  820)  to  record  fair  value  adjustments  to  certain  assets  and  liabilities  and  to  determine  fair  value 
disclosures.  This guidance clarifies that fair value of certain assets and liabilities is an exit price, representing the amount 
that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.   

The  fair  market  value  measurement  specifies  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 are 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 financial assets and liabilities 
recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated financial statements:

Note 17 - Fair value measurements (continued) 

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  considers 
observable market data (Level 2).  

The  following  table  presents  the  balances  of  available-for-sale  securities  measured  at  fair  value  on  a  recurring  basis  as  of

Certain financial assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments to the fair 
value  of  these  assets  usually  result  from  the  application  of  lower-of-cost-or-market  accounting  or  write-downs  of  individual 
assets. The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain financial assets recorded at 
fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the consolidated financial statements: 

Impaired Loans - Loans are designated as impaired when, in the judgment of management based on current information and 
events, it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected. 
The measurement of loss associated with impaired loans can be based on the observable market price of the loan, the fair 
value  of  the  collateral  or  by  using  the  discounted  cash  flow  method.  Fair  value  is  measured  based  on  the  value  of  the 
collateral securing the loans. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory, 
and accounts receivable. The vast majority of the collateral is real estate.  

The  value  of  real  estate  collateral  is  determined  utilizing  an  income  or  market  valuation  approach  based  on  an  appraisal 
conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser outside of the Company.  The Company records impaired loans secured by 
real estate as Level 3 assets.  The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal if deemed significant, or the 
net book value on the applicable business’ financial statements if not considered significant using observable market data. 
Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivables collateral are based on financial statement balances or aging reports 
are recorded as Level 3 assets.  Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan losses on 
the Statements of Operations.

Other  real  estate  owned  -  Other  real  estate  owned  is  considered  held  for  sale  and  is  adjusted  to  fair  value  less  estimated 
selling costs upon transfer of the loan to foreclosed assets. Fair value is based  upon independent market prices, appraised 
value  of  the  collateral  or  management’s  estimation  of  the  value  of  the  collateral.    The  Company  considers  the  other  real 
estate owned as nonrecurring Level 3.

Note 17 - Fair value measurements (concluded) 

The following table presents the carrying amounts and fair value of the Company's financial instruments as of December 31, 
2017  and  2016.  FASB  Accounting  Standards  Codification’s  Financial  Instruments  (ASC  825),  defines  the  fair  value  of 
financial instruments as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing 
parties,  other  than  in  a  forced  or  liquidation  sale.    The  carrying  amounts  in  the  table  are  included  in  the  balance  sheets 
under  the  indicated  captions.    The  capital  notes  are  valued  at  amortized  cost  based  on  the  lack  of  marketability  due  to 
transfer restrictions. 

Financial assets:

Cash and cash equivalents
Investment securities, available-for-sale
Loans held for sale
Loans held for investment, net

The Board of Directors approved a stock incentive plan effective January 1, 2007.  The plan authorizes the grant of awards 
for a period of ten years, which expired on December 31, 2017.  The number of shares authorized for issuance under the 
plan  is  limited  to  2.25%  of  the  total  authorized  and  unissued  shares  of  common  stock.    Three  types  of  awards  may  be 
granted under the plan: Incentive Stock Options, Nonqualified Stock Options and Restricted Stock.  The Company granted 
restricted  stock  awards  during  2017  and  2016.    The  Company  accounts  for  this  plan  in  accordance  with  the  Stock 
Compensation Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC 718).  The non-vested equity share or non-vested 
equity  share  unit  awarded  to  an  employee  is  measured  at  its  fair  value  on  the  grant  date.    The  compensation  expense  is 
recognized over the requisite service period.   

The  vesting  requirements  range  from  three  to  five  years.    The  compensation  expense  recognized  for  the  years  ended 
December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $200,423 and $30,000, respectively.  Members of the Board of Directors of the Company 
can elect to receive a portion or all of their director’s fees in the form of common stock.  During the year ended December 
31, 2017 and 2016, the expense related to these issuances was $47,500 and $26,400, respectively.
