Dear Shareholder, 

Despite  ongoing  predictions  that  the  interest  rate  environment  is  about  to  become  more  upward  oriented  for  us,  we 
continue  to  struggle  with  spreads  between  deposits  and  loans  that  are  primarily  driven  by  the  Fed’s  interest  rate 
movements.  Notwithstanding this difficulty we continue to grow our balance sheet towards profitable operating results.   
On balance, as reflected below, the investment we have made to build our loan and deposit franchises is leading to very 
positive results. 

(cid:120)

Total assets increased by $9.6 million, or 3.9% from $246.2 million at December 31, 2014 to $255.8 million at 
December 31, 2015.  

(cid:120) Net  Loans  receivable  grew  by  $13.0  million,  or  6.9%  from  $188.8  million  at  December  31,  2014  to  $201.8 

million at December 31, 2015. 

(cid:120) Deposits increased by $10.3 million, or 5.8%, from $175.3 million at December 31, 2014 to $185.6 million at 

December 31, 2015.   

(cid:120) Net income decreased by $147 thousand to $513 thousand in 2015 from $660 thousand in 2014.  The decrease 
in  income  was  mainly  attributable  to  increased  costs  associated  with  the  addition  of  our  Buffalo  mortgage 
office and the hiring of an additional seasoned commercial lender to enhance our commercial lending team. 

(cid:120)

(cid:120)

The net interest  margin decreased to 2.91% for the year ended December 31, 2015 from 2.95% for the year 
ended December 31, 2014, due to an increase in the cost of our interest bearing liabilities, primarily certificates 
of deposit. 

The  credit  quality  of  our  loan  portfolio remained  strong  with  one non-performing  residential  mortgage  loan, 
one  non-performing  home  equity  line  of  credit,  and one non-performing  checking  line  of  credit  totaling $82 
thousand at December 31, 2015, as compared to one non-performing residential mortgage loan, and one non-
performing home equity line of credit totaling $74 thousand at December 31, 2014. 

In the past year we expanded our commercial loan capacity and began to originate residential mortgages in the Buffalo, 
New  York  market.    The  commercial  loan  initiative  is  providing  much  needed  balance  sheet  diversification  while  the 
Buffalo  market  entry  reflects  our  continuing  appetite  for  mortgage  loan  growth.    The  evolution  of  the  regulatory 
environment in which we operate continues to present us with myriad challenges and uncertainties. 

As  we  enhance  our  loan  origination  capacity  and  raise  our  goals  for  loan  growth  we  continue  to  employ  the  same 
conservative underwriting standards that have helped us to maintain our outstanding loan portfolio.  Loans we choose to 
hold in our portfolio and loans that we sell into the secondary market receive the same diligent review for underwriting. 

The Board of Directors, the FSB staff members, and I appreciate the continued confidence you have shown in us and in 
our commitment to building a bank that is driven by long term value objectives. 

Sincerely,

Dana C. Gavenda 
President and Chief Executive Officer

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION 
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 

Overview 

Our business has traditionally focused on originating one- to four-family residential real 
estate mortgage loans and home equity lines of credit, and offering retail deposit accounts. Our 
primary market area consists of Monroe County and the surrounding western New York counties 
of  Erie,  Livingston,  Ontario,  Orleans,  Jefferson  and  Wayne.  In  2015,  we  began  to  expand  our 
commercial lending activities in an effort to improve our interest rate risk exposure through the 
origination of shorter duration commercial loan products.  Also in March 2015, we expanded our 
mortgage  origination  footprint,  and  opened  a  new  mortgage  loan  origination  office  in  Buffalo, 
New York. In the low interest rate environment which continued to be experienced throughout 
2015  and  2014,  management  continued  to  generally  sell  all  of  the  fixed-rate  residential  real 
estate loans with terms of 15 years or greater that we originated in order to manage interest rate 
risk.  The  current  low  interest  rate  environment  also  resulted  in  management’s  decision  to 
decrease  the  amount  of  investment  securities  and  to  redeploy  the  funds  available  from  the 
decrease  in  the  investment  portfolio  into  higher  yielding  assets,  primarily  shorter  duration  or 
adjustable one- to four-family mortgage loans in 2015.  The increase in the loan portfolio balance 
in 2015 increased loan interest income despite lower average yields on the overall loan portfolio.  

At December 31, 2015, we had $255.8 million in consolidated assets, an increase of $9.6 
million,  or  3.9%,  from  $246.2  million  at  December  31,  2014.  During  2015,  we  continued  to 
focus  on  loan  production,  particularly  with  respect  to  residential  mortgage  loans  as  well  as 
commercial  real  estate  loans.  The  credit  quality  of  our  loan  portfolio  remains  strong  and 
significantly  better  than  our  peers.  At  December  31,  2015,  we  had  three  non-performing  loans 
totaling  $82,000,  while  at  December  31,  2014,  we  had  two  non-performing  loans  totaling 
$74,000.  We had no real estate owned at December 31, 2015 or at December 31, 2014. 

Our  results  of  operations  depend  primarily  on  our  net  interest  income  and,  to  a  lesser 
extent, other income.   Net interest income is the difference between the interest income we earn 
on  our  interest-earning  assets,  consisting  primarily  of  loans,  investment  securities  and  other 
interest-earning  assets  (primarily  cash  and  cash  equivalents),  and  the  interest  we  pay  on  our 
interest-bearing  liabilities,  consisting  primarily  of  savings  accounts,  NOW  accounts,  money 
market  accounts,  time  deposits  and  borrowings.    Other  income  consists  primarily  of  realized 
gains  on  sales  of  loans  and  securities,  mortgage  fee  income,  fees  and  service  charges  from 
deposit products, fee income from our financial services subsidiary, earnings on bank owned life 
insurance  and  miscellaneous  other  income.    Our  results  of  operations  also  are  affected  by  our 
provision  for  loan  losses  and  other  expense.  Other  expenses  consist  primarily  of  salaries  and 
employee  benefits,  occupancy,  equipment,  electronic  banking,  data  processing  costs,  mortgage 
fees and taxes, advertising, directors’ fees, FDIC deposit insurance premium expense, audit and 
tax  services,  and  other  miscellaneous  expenses.  Our  results  of  operations  also  may  be  affected 
significantly  by  general  and  local  economic  and  competitive  conditions,  changes  in  market 
interest  rates,  government  policies  and  actions  of  regulatory  authorities.    For  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2015, we had net income of $513,000 compared to net income of $660,000 for the 
year  ended  December  31,  2014.    The  year  over  year  $147,000  decrease  in  net  income  was 

1 

attributable to an increase in both other expense and the provision for loan losses, partially offset 
by a combination of increases in net interest income, and in other income, and a decrease in the 
provision for income taxes. 

Critical Accounting Policies 

Critical  accounting  policies  are  defined  as  those  that  involve  significant  judgments  and 
uncertainties,  and  could  potentially  result  in  materially  different  results  under  different 
assumptions  and  conditions.  We  believe  that  the  most  critical  accounting  policies  upon  which 
our  financial  condition  and  results  of  operations  depend,  involve  the  most  complex  subjective 
decisions  or  assessments  including  our  policies  with  respect  to  our  allowance  for  loan  losses,  
deferred tax assets and the estimation of fair values for accounting and discourse purposes. 

Allowance for Loan Losses.  The allowance for loan losses is the amount estimated by 
management  as  necessary  to  absorb  credit  losses  incurred  in  the  loan  portfolio  that  are  both 
probable  and  reasonably  estimable  at  the  balance  sheet  date.    The  amount  of  the  allowance  is 
based  on  significant  estimates,  and  the  ultimate  losses  may  vary  from  such  estimates  as  more 
information  becomes  available  or  conditions  change.    The  methodology  for  determining  the 
allowance  for  loan  losses  is  considered  a  critical  accounting  policy  by  management  due  to  the 
high degree of judgment involved, the subjectivity of the assumptions used and the potential for 
changes in the economic environment that could result in changes to the amount of the recorded 
allowance for loan losses.   

As a substantial percentage of our loan portfolio is collateralized by real estate, appraisals 
of the underlying value of property securing loans are critical in determining the amount of the 
allowance required for specific loans.  Assumptions are instrumental in determining the value of 
properties. 
  Overly  optimistic  assumptions  or  negative  changes  to  assumptions  could 
significantly  affect  the  valuation  of  a  property  securing  a  loan  and  the  related  allowance 
determined.    Management  carefully  reviews  the  assumptions  supporting  such  appraisals  to 
determine that the resulting values reasonably reflect amounts realizable on the related loans.   

Management performs an evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses at 
least quarterly.  We consider a variety of factors in establishing this estimate including, but not 
limited  to,  current  economic  conditions,  delinquency  statistics,  geographic  concentrations,  the 
adequacy of the underlying collateral, the financial strength of the borrower, results of internal 
loan  reviews  and  other  relevant  factors.    This  evaluation  is  inherently  subjective  as  it  requires 
material  estimates  by  management  that  may  be  susceptible  to  significant  change  based  on 
changes in economic and real estate market conditions. 

The  evaluation  has  specific,  general,  and  unallocated  components.    The  specific 
component  relates  to  loans  that  are  deemed  to  be  impaired  and  classified  as  special  mention, 
substandard, doubtful, or loss.  For such loans that are also classified as impaired, an allowance 
is generally established when the collateral value of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying 
value of that loan.  The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical 
loss  experience  adjusted  for  qualitative  factors.    An  unallocated  component  is  maintained  to 
cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses.  The unallocated 

2 

component  of  the  allowance  reflects  the  margin  of  imprecision  inherent  in  the  underlying 
assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating known and inherent losses in the portfolio. 

Actual  loan  losses  may  be  significantly  more  than  the  allowance  we  have  established 

which could have a material negative effect on our financial results. 

Deferred  Tax  Assets.    The  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  represent  the  future  tax 
return  consequences  of  the  temporary  differences,  which  will  either  be  taxable  or  deductible 
when  the  assets  and  liabilities  are  recovered  or  settled.    Deferred  tax  assets  are  reduced  by  a 
valuation  allowance  when,  in  the  opinion  of  management,  it  is  more  likely  than  not  that  some 
portion  of  the  deferred  tax  assets  will  not  be  realized.    Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are 
reflected  at  income  tax  rates  applicable  to  the  period  in  which  the  deferred  tax  assets  and 
liabilities  are  expected  to  be  realized  or  settled.    As  changes  in  tax  laws  or  rates  are  enacted, 
deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. 

Estimation of Fair Values.  Fair values for securities available-for-sale are obtained from 
an  independent  third  party  pricing  service.    Where  available,  fair  values  are  based  on  quoted 
prices  on  a  nationally  recognized  securities  exchange.    If  quoted  prices  are  not  available,  fair 
values are measured using quoted market prices for similar benchmark securities.  Management 
generally makes no adjustments to the fair value quotes provided by the pricing source.  The fair 
values of foreclosed real estate and the underlying collateral value of impaired loans are typically 
determined based on evaluations by third parties, less estimated costs to sell.  When necessary, 
appraisals are updated to reflect changes in market conditions. 

Business Strategy 

Fairport Savings Bank was established in 1888 and has been operating continuously since 
that  time.  We  are  committed  to  meeting  the  financial  needs  of  the  communities  we  serve, 
primarily  the  greater  Rochester,  New  York  metropolitan  area,  and  are  dedicated  to  providing 
personalized  superior  service  to  our  customers.  In  recent  years,  the  business  of  banking  has 
changed rapidly, requiring extensive investment in technology as well as significantly increased 
compliance expenses to address the substantial regulatory changes enacted as a result of the great 
recession.  We  recognize  that  to  continue  to  meet  the  needs  of  our  customers  and  to  provide  a 
competitive return to our stockholders, we will need to continue to grow, by both expanding our 
historical  residential  lending  business  and  diversifying  our  lending  efforts.  Our  principal 
strategies to achieve these goals are as follows: 

 

Continuing  to  Emphasize  Residential  Real  Estate  Lending.    Historically  we 
have  emphasized  the  origination  of  one-  to  four-family  residential  loans  within 
Monroe County and the surrounding counties of Livingston, Ontario, Orleans and 
Wayne. As of December 31, 2015, 87.5% of our loan portfolio consisted of one- 
to four-family residential loans. We intend to continue to emphasize originations 
of loans secured by one- to four-family residential real estate, holding in portfolio 
loans that are either adjustable-rate or have fixed-rates with terms of less than 15 
years and selling longer-term fixed rate-one- to four-family residential real estate 
loans in the secondary market to increase other income.

 

 

 

 

Expanding  Our  Commercial  Banking  Market  Share.  We  offer  a  variety  of 
lending  and  deposit  products  for  commercial  banking  customers  in  our  market. 
We have invested heavily in developing our commercial loan department over the 
last  two  years  by  recruiting  and  hiring  talented  commercial  loan  officers  and 
enhancing our commercial product offerings. We seek to develop broad customer 
deposit and loan relationships based on our service and competitive pricing while 
maintaining  a  conservative  approach  to  lending  and  sound  asset  quality.  We 
intend to focus our efforts on the needs of small and medium sized businesses in 
our  market,  focusing  on  commercial  real  estate,  multi-family  and  construction 
loans while gradually growing our portfolio of commercial and industrial loans as 
well as Small Business Administration guaranteed loans.  

Maintaining High Asset Quality. We believe that strong asset quality is critical to 
the long-term financial success of a small community bank. We attribute our high 
asset quality to maintaining conservative underwriting standards, the diligence of 
our  loan  collection  personnel  and  the  stability  of  the  local  economy.    At 
December 31, 2015, we only had three non-accrual loans totaling $82,000, and at 
this date, our non-performing assets to total assets ratio was 0.03%. Over the last 
five  years,  we  have  charged-off  only  $18,000.    Because  substantially  all  of  our 
loans  are  secured  by  real  estate,  and  the  level  of  our  non-performing  loans  has 
been low in recent years, we believe that our allowance for loan losses is adequate 
to absorb the probable losses inherent in our loan portfolio.  

Managing  Our  Interest  Rate  Risk.    To  improve  our  interest  rate  risk,  in  recent 
years we have reduced the fixed-rate loan originations added to our loan portfolio 
by selling most fixed-rate residential mortgages with terms of 15 years or greater 
in  the  secondary  market.  We  also  invest  a  portion  of  funds  received  from  loan 
payments  and  repayments  in  shorter  term  and  intermediate  term,  liquid 
investment securities and securities classified as available for sale, including U.S. 
Government  agency  debt  obligations  and  mortgage-backed  securities.  We 
emphasize  marketing  our  lower  cost  passbook,  savings  and  checking  accounts, 
money  market  accounts  and  increasing  the  duration  whenever  possible  of  our 
lower cost certificates of deposit and Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings.  

Offering  A  Wide  Selection  Of  Non-Deposit  Investment  Products  and  Services. 
Fairport  Wealth  Management,  a  wholly  owned  subsidiary  of  Fairport  Savings 
Bank, offers a broad range of investment, insurance, and financial products. We 
have  a  dedicated  investment  representative  that  evaluates  the  needs  of  clients  to 
determine  suitable  investment  and  insurance  solutions  to  meet  their  short  and 
long-term wealth management goals. In 2015, Fairport Wealth Management had 
fee income of $228,000 and we intend to continue to emphasize these investment, 
insurance, and financial products to our customers.

Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 2015 and 2014 

Total Assets.  Total assets increased $9.6 million, or 3.9%, to $255.8 million at December 
31, 2015 from $246.2 million at December 31, 2014, reflecting increases in net loans receivable, 
loans held for sale and cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by decreases in investments, both 
securities held to maturity and available for sale.  

Net loans receivable increased $13.0 million, or 6.9%, to $201.8 million at December 31, 
2015 from $188.8 million at December 31, 2014.  In 2015, we increased our portfolio of shorter-
term  and  adjustable-rate  residential  mortgage  loans  as  an  earnings  strategy,  while  selling  $53.9 
million in conventional longer term mortgage loans and correspondent FHA and VA mortgages to 
reduce interest rate risk. One- to four-family residential real estate loans increased $7.7 million, 
or  4.6%,  to  $177.0  million  at  December  31,  2015  from  $169.3  million  at  December  31,  2014. 
Also in 2015, we continued to grow our commercial real estate and multi-family loan portfolio. 
Commercial and multi-family real estate loans increased $3.4 million, or 65.2%, to $8.7 million 
at  December  31,  2015  from  $5.2  million  at  December  31,  2014.    Mortgage  loans  held  for  sale 
increased by $919,000, or 31.0%, to $3.9 million at December 31, 2015 compared to $3.0 million 
at December 31, 2014. Mortgage loans serviced for others increased by $26.7 million, or 45.0%, to

$85.9 million at December 31, 2015 compared to $59.2 million at December 31, 2014 as a result of 
our increased secondary market activities.  

Cash  and  cash  equivalents,  primarily  interest-earning  deposits  at  the  Federal  Reserve 
Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank, increased by $1.8 million, or 41.8%, to $6.1 million at 
December  31,  2015  from  $4.3  million  at  December  31,  2014,  in  order  to  maintain  a  strong 
liquidity position in anticipation of funding loan commitments in the first quarter of 2016.  

Securities  available  for  sale  decreased  by  $2.0  million,  or  9.2%,  to  $20.0  million  at 
December 31, 2015 from $22.0 million at December 31, 2014. The decrease was primarily due to 
maturities, calls, sales and principal repayments of $10.9 million, combined with a decrease in the 
fair market value of available-for-sale securities of $202,000, partially offset by purchases of $9.1 
million  in  new  securities.  During  the  second  quarter  of  2014,  we  transferred  securities  with  an 
amortized cost of $10.0 million from available for sale to held-to-maturity.  The fair value of the 
securities transferred as of the date of the transfer was $9.6 million with a net unrealized loss of 
$372,000.  At December 31, 2015, the fair value of these securities was $6.8 million with a net 
unrealized  loss  of  $207,000.  In  accordance  with  ASC  320-10-15-10d,  the  unrealized  loss 
amounts in accumulated other comprehensive loss are amortized simultaneously against interest 
income as the discount is accreted on the transferred securities.  There is no effect on net income 
as the discount accretion offsets the accumulated other comprehensive loss amortization.  

Securities held to maturity decreased $4.4 million, or 25.4%, to $13.0 million at December 
31,  2015  from  $17.4  million  at  December  31,  2014  due  to  maturities,  calls  and  principal 
repayments of $4.8 million and $814,000 in mortgage-backed securities sales, partially offset by 
purchases of $1.2 million in state and municipal securities as cash flows were primarily redeployed 
into loans.  

Deposits  and  Borrowings.  Total  deposits  increased  $10.3  million,  or  5.9%,  to  $185.6 
million  at  December  31,  2015  from  $175.3  million  at  December  31,  2014.    The  increase  in  our 
deposits reflected a $10.4 million increase in certificates of deposit, including individual retirement 
accounts,  due  to  a  promotion  in  the  second  half  of  2015,  and  a  $1.3  million  increase  in  non-
interest-bearing checking accounts. These increases were partially offset by a $1.4 million decrease 
in interest-bearing transaction accounts consisting of decreases of $2.0 million in savings accounts 
and  $1.6  million  in  money  market  accounts,  partially  offset  by  an  increase  of  $2.2  million  in 
NOW accounts. Total borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York decreased $1.8 
million, or 3.8%, to $46.1 million at December 31, 2015 from $47.9 million at December 31, 2014 
as a result of replacing maturing borrowings with deposits to fund loan growth in 2015.    

Stockholders’ Equity. Stockholders’ equity increased $556,000, or 2.6%, to $21.8 million 
at  December  31,  2015  from  $21.2  million  at  December  31,  2014.    The  increase  resulted  from 
$513,000 in net income, an increase of $14,000 in accumulated other comprehensive income and 
$35,000 resulting from the release of ESOP shares from the suspense account, partially offset by 
the repurchase of $6,000 of stock from the ESOP to fund plan distributions to participants.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 

General.    Net  income  decreased  $147,000,  or  22.3%,  to  $513,000  for  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2015 from $660,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014.  The year over year 
decrease in net income of $147,000 was attributable to an increase in other expense of $654,000 
and a $31,000 increase in the provision for loan losses, partially offset by a $254,000 increase in 
other income, an increase in net interest income of $117,000 and a decrease in the provision for 
income taxes of $167,000. 

Interest and Dividend Income.  Total interest and dividend income increased $267,000, or 
3.1%, to $8.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 from $8.7 million for the year ended 
December  31,  2014.  The  interest  and  dividend  income  increase  resulted  from  a  $7.9  million 
increase year over year in average interest-earning assets, primarily loans, despite a one basis point 
decrease in the average yield earned on interest-earning assets from 3.75% for 2014 to 3.74% for 
2015.  

Interest income on loans increased $414,000, or 5.4%, to $8.1 million for 2015 from $7.7 
million  for  2014,  reflecting  a  $13.5  million  increase  in  the  average  balance  of  loans  to  $197.9 
million for 2015 from $184.4 million for 2014, partially offset by an eight basis points decrease in 
the  average  yield  earned  on  loans.  The  increase  in  the  average  balance  of  loans  was  due  to  our 
focus on increasing our portfolio of one- to four-family residential, commercial and multi-family 
loans in 2015 as compared to 2014. The average yield on loans decreased to 4.10% for 2015 from 
4.18% for 2014, reflecting decreases in market interest rates on loan products, primarily residential 
mortgages.  

Interest income on taxable investment securities decreased $101,000 to $473,000 in 2015, 
from  $574,000  in  2014.    The  average  balance  of  taxable  investment  securities  decreased  $5.1 
million,  or  23.0%,  to  $17.0  million  in  2015  from  $22.1  million  in  2014  as  a  portion  of  the  cash 
flow  from  the  portfolio  was  redeployed  to  fund  loan  growth,  while  the  average  yield  on  these 
securities  increased  to  2.78%  in  2015  from  2.60%  in  2014.  Yields  on  investment  securities 
increased  with  new  purchases  at  higher  yields  replacing  lower  yielding  maturing  investments. 
Interest  income  on  mortgage-backed  securities  decreased  $68,000  to  $223,000  in  2015,  from 
$291,000 in 2014, reflecting a decrease in the average yield on mortgage-backed securities of 17 
basis points to 1.39% in 2015 from 1.56% in 2014, along with a decrease in the average balance of 
mortgage-backed securities of $2.6 million, or 13.9%, to $16.0 million in 2015 from $18.6 million 
in 2014. Mortgage-backed securities yields decreased primarily due to faster prepayments on the 
mortgage-backed  securities  portfolio  in  2015  that  increased  the  premium  amortization.  Interest 
income on tax exempt securities increased $21,000 to $93,000 in 2015, from $72,000 in 2014.  The 
average  balance  of  state  and  municipal  securities  increased  by  $1.2  million,  or  33.2%,  to  $4.9 
million in 2015 from $3.7 million in 2014, while the average tax equivalent yield decreased by 10 
basis points to 2.85% in 2015 from 2.95% in 2014. The average tax equivalent yield on state and 
municipal securities decreased due to our purchasing shorter-term state and municipal securities 
in the current low interest rate environment.  

Total  Interest  Expense.    Total  interest  expense  increased  $150,000,  or  8.1%,  to  $2.0 
million for the year ended December 31, 2015 from $1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 
2014.  The  increase  in  total  interest  expense  reflected  an  increase  in  the  average  balance  of 

8 

borrowings of $8.6 million, partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of deposits of $2.8 
million. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased four basis points from 0.87% for 
2014  to  0.91%  for  2015  largely  as  a  result  of  higher  market  interest  rates  paid  on  deposits, 
primarily promotional certificates of deposit.  

Interest expense on deposits increased $28,000, or 2.3%, to $1.3 million for 2015 from $1.2 
million for 2014.  The average cost of deposits increased to 0.74% for 2015 from 0.71% for 2014, 
primarily reflecting higher rates paid on promotional certificates of deposit.  The average cost of 
certificates  of  deposit  accounts  increased  by  nine  basis  points  to  1.10%  in  2015  from  1.01%  in 
2014.  However,  the  average  balance  of  certificates  of  deposit  (including  individual  retirement 
accounts)  decreased  by  $4.6  million  to  $93.5  million  in  2015  from  $98.1  million  in  2014.  The 
average balance of transaction accounts, traditionally our lower cost deposit accounts, increased by 
$2.8 million to $83.5 million for 2015 from $80.7 million for 2014, with a decrease in the average 
cost of transaction accounts of one basis point to 0.27% in 2015 from 0.28% in 2014.   

At December 31, 2015, we had $61.6 million of certificates of deposit, including individual 
retirement accounts, which are scheduled to mature during 2016.  Based on current market interest 
rates, we expect that the cost of these deposits upon renewal will be at a similar cost to us as their 
current contractual rates.  

Interest  expense  on  borrowings  increased  $122,000,  or  19.6%,  to  $743,000  for  the  year 
ended December 31, 2015 from $621,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014. The increase in 
interest  expense  on  borrowings  reflected  an  $8.6  million  increase  in  our  average  balance  of 
borrowings  with  the  Federal  Home  Loan  Bank  to  $48.7  million  for  2015  compared  to  $40.1 
million for 2014, partially offset by a decrease in the average cost of these funds from 1.55% in 
2014 to 1.53% in 2015. The average balance on borrowings with the Federal Home Loan Bank 
increased in 2015 as compared to 2014 due to the growth in borrowings throughout the year to 
fund loan growth.   

Net Interest Income.  Net interest income increased $117,000, or 1.7%, to $6.9 million for 
the year ended December 31, 2015 from $6.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The 
increase  in  net  interest  income  despite  a  decrease  in  net  interest  margin  was  primarily  due  to 
substantially  higher  average  balance  of  loans  year  over  year,  together  with  an  increase  in  the 
average  balance  of  tax-exempt  securities  when  comparing  2015  to  2014.  Net  interest-earning 
assets increased to $20.8 million for 2015 from $18.7 million for 2014. Our growth continues to 
focus  on  loan  production,  particularly  with  respect  to  residential  and  commercial  real  estate 
mortgage loans.  

Our net interest margin for the year ended December 31, 2015 decreased four basis points 
to 2.91% from 2.95% for the year ended December 31, 2014, due to an increase in the average 
cost of interest-bearing liabilities of four basis points from 0.87% in 2014 to 0.91% in 2015 in 
addition to a decrease in the average yield on our interest-earning assets of one basis point from 
3.75% in 2014 to 3.74% in 2015.   

Provision for Loan Losses.  We establish provisions for loan losses which are charged to 
operations in order to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level we consider necessary to 
absorb credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio that are both probable and reasonably estimable 

9 

at the balance sheet date. In determining the level of the allowance for loan losses, we consider 
past  and  current  loss  experience,  evaluations  of  real  estate  collateral,  current  economic 
conditions, volume and type of lending, adverse situations that may affect a borrower’s ability to 
repay  a  loan,  and  the  levels  of  non-performing  and  other  classified  loans.    The  amount  of  the 
allowance is based on estimates and the ultimate losses may vary from such estimates as more 
information becomes available or conditions change.  We assess the allowance for loan losses on 
at least a quarterly basis and make provisions for loan losses in order to maintain the allowance. 

Based on our evaluation of the above factors, we recorded a $158,000 provision for loan 
losses for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to a $127,000 provision for loan losses 
for the year ended December 31, 2014.  The increase in 2015 was the result of additional general 
provisions  deemed  necessary  to  support  an  increased  balance  of  loans  receivable,  primarily 
commercial  and  multi-family  loans,  as  well  as  a  potentially  weaker  economy  in  2016.  The 
allowance  for  loan  losses  was  $811,000,  or  0.40%  of  net  loans  outstanding,  at  December  31, 
2015 compared to $653,000, or 0.34% of net loans outstanding, at December 31, 2014.   

Other Income.  Other income increased by $254,000, or 9.8%, to $2.8 million for 2015 
from $2.6 million for 2014.  The increase in other income resulted primarily from increases in 
realized gains on the sales of securities and loans, mortgage fee income and fee income, partially 
offset by a decrease in deposit service fees. A substantial portion of the increase in other income 
was the result of gains on the sales of securities which increased $103,000 to $106,000 in 2015 
from  $3,000  in  2014.  Mortgage  fee  income  increased  $94,000,  or  17.5%,  to  $632,000  in  2015 
from $538,000 in 2014. Gains on the sales of loans increased $56,000, or 3.9%, to $1.5 million 
in 2015 from $1.4 million in 2014. Higher mortgage loan origination volume in 2015 compared 
to 2014 produced an increase in both mortgage fee income and realized gain on sales of loans.    
Fee income from Fairport Wealth Management increased by $24,000 or, 11.8%, to $228,000 in 
2015 compared to $204,000 in 2014. 

Other  Expense.    Other  expense  increased  $654,000,  or  7.9%,  to  $9.0  million  in  2015 
from  $8.3  million  in  2014.    The  increase  was  the  result  of  increases  in  salaries  and  employee 
benefits  expense  of  $413,000,  occupancy  expense  of  $49,000,  mortgage  fees  and  taxes  of 
$60,000  and  other  miscellaneous  expense  of  $51,000.  The  increase  in  salaries  and  employee 
benefits  expense  was  primarily  due  to  normal  annual  increases  for  existing  staff,  the  increased 
salary  costs  associated  with  additional  processing  and  mortgage  origination  staff  for  our  new 
mortgage loan origination office located in Buffalo, New York, and the hiring of an additional 
seasoned  commercial  lender  to  enhance  our  commercial  lending  team.  The  increase  in 
occupancy  expenses  was  also  related  to  the  mortgage  loan  origination  office  established  in 
Buffalo,  New  York  in  March  2015.    Mortgage  fees  and  taxes  increased  due  to  the  additional 
volume of mortgage originations in 2015 as compared to 2014.   

Provision for Income Taxes.   The provision for income taxes was $136,000 for 2015, a 
decrease  of  $167,000  compared  to  a  provision  for  income  taxes  of  $303,000  for  2014.    The 
income  tax  provision  decreased  $167,000  in  2015  as  compared  to  2014  due  to  the  impact  of 
interest and dividends from tax-exempt securities as well as a partial reversal of a component of 
the deferred tax asset valuation allowance during 2015. The effective tax rate was 20.9% in 2015 
compared to 31.5% in 2014.

Rate/Volume Analysis 

The following table presents the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest 
income for the years indicated.  The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate 
(changes in rate multiplied by prior volume).  The volume column shows the effects attributable 
to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate).  The net column represents 
the sum of the prior columns.  For purposes of this table, changes attributable to both rate and 
volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately, based on the changes 
due to rate and the changes due to volume.

Management of Market Risk 

General.  The majority of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature.  Consequently, 
our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk.  Our assets, consisting primarily of 
mortgage loans, have longer maturities than our liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits.  As a 
result,  a  principal  part  of  our  business  strategy  is  to  manage  the  impact  of  changes  in  market 
interest  rates  on  net  interest  income  and  capital.  We  have  an  Asset/Liability  Management 
Committee  which  is  responsible  for  evaluating  the  interest  rate  risk  inherent  in  our  assets  and 
liabilities,  for  determining  the  level  of  risk  that  is  appropriate,  given  our  business  strategy, 
operating environment, capital, liquidity and performance objectives, and for managing this risk 
consistent with the guidelines approved by the board of directors. The Committee establishes and 
monitors the volume, maturities, pricing and mix of assets and funding sources with the objective 

12 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
of  managing  assets  and  funding  sources  to  provide  results  that  are  consistent  with  liquidity, 
growth, risk limits and profitability goals. 

As  part  of  our  ongoing  asset-liability  management,  we  intend  to  use  the  following 

strategies to manage our interest rate risk: 

(i) 

(ii) 

(iii) 

(iv) 

invest  in  shorter  to  medium-term  repricing  and/or  maturing  securities  whenever 
market conditions allow; 

emphasize  the  marketing  of  our  passbook,  savings  and  checking  accounts  and 
increase the duration of our certificates of deposit;  

sell our newly originated long-term, fixed-rate one- to four-family residential real 
estate mortgage loans; 

increase  our  commercial  loan  portfolio  with  shorter  term,  higher  yielding  loan 
products; and 

 (v)  maintain a strong capital position.  

In 2015, we sold $53.9 million of residential mortgage loan originations, including $32.5 
million  of  conventional  conforming  fixed-rate  residential  mortgages  and  $21.4  million  of 
correspondent FHA and VA mortgage loans. We intend to continue to originate and, subject to 
market  conditions,  sell  long  term  (terms  of  15  years  or  greater)  fixed-rate  one-  to  four-family 
residential real estate loans. 

Our earnings and the market value of our assets and liabilities are subject to fluctuations 
caused by changes in the level of interest rates.  We manage the interest rate sensitivity of our 
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities in an effort to minimize the adverse effects 
of changes in the interest rate environment. The majority of our assets are long-term, fixed-rate 
mortgage loans that do not reprice as quickly as our deposits, therefore we would experience a 
significant decrease in our net interest income in the event of a sudden and significant increase in 
interest rates or an inversion of the yield curve.  We have $61.6 million in certificate of deposit 
accounts (including individual retirement accounts) that are scheduled to mature during 2016.  If 
we retain these deposits, it most likely will be at a similar cost to us as their current contractual 
rates. 

Additionally, shortening the average maturity of our interest-earning assets by increasing 
our  investments  in  shorter  term  loans,  as  well  as  loans  with  variable  rates  of  interest,  helps  to 
better  match  the  maturities  and  interest  rates  of  our  assets  and  liabilities,  thereby  reducing  the 
exposure  of  our  net  interest  income  to  changes  in  market  interest  rates.    By  following  these 
strategies, we believe that we are better positioned to react to changes in market interest rates.  

Interest Rate Risk Management 

Our earnings and the market value of our assets and liabilities are subject to fluctuations 
caused by changes in the level of interest rates.  We manage the interest rate sensitivity of our 

13 

 
 
 
 
 
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities in an effort to minimize the adverse effects 
of changes in the interest rate environment. The majority of our assets are long-term fixed-rate 
mortgage loans that do not reprice as quickly as our deposits, therefore we would experience a 
significant decrease in our net interest income in the event of an inversion of the yield curve.  We 
expect  that  our  net  interest  income  will  be  positively  affected  as  our  certificates  of  deposit 
mature  and  reprice  at  a  lower  cost  to  us.    We  have  $61.6  million  in  certificates  of  deposit 
accounts (including individual retirement accounts) that are scheduled to mature during 2016.  If 
we retain these deposits it most likely will be at a similar cost to us than their current contractual 
rates. 

We have an Asset/Liability Management Committee to coordinate all aspects involving 
asset/liability  management.    The  committee  establishes  and  monitors  the  volume,  maturities, 
pricing and mix of assets and funding sources with the objective of managing assets and funding 
sources to provide results that are consistent with liquidity, growth, risk limits and profitability 
goals. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources 

Liquidity  is  the  ability  to  meet  current  and  future  financial  obligations  of  a  short-term 
nature.  Our  cash  flows  are  derived  from  operating  activities,  investing  activities  and  financing 
activities as reported in our consolidated statements of cash flows included in our consolidated 
financial statements. 

  Our  primary sources of funds  consist of deposit inflows,  loan repayments,  borrowings 
from  the  Federal  Home  Loan  Bank  of  New  York,  maturities  and  principal  repayments  of 
securities,  and  loan  and  securities  sales.  While  maturities  and  scheduled  amortization  of  loans 
and  securities  are  predictable  sources  of  funds,  deposit  flows  and  mortgage  prepayments  are 
greatly  influenced  by  general  interest  rates,  economic  conditions  and  competition.    Our 
asset/liability management committee is responsible for establishing and monitoring our liquidity 
targets and strategies in order to ensure that sufficient liquidity exists for meeting the borrowing 
needs and deposit withdrawals of our customers as well as unanticipated contingencies.  We seek 
to  maintain  a  liquidity  ratio  of  20.0%  or  greater.    For  the  year  ended  December  31,  2015,  our 
liquidity ratio averaged 36.1%.  We believe that we have enough sources of liquidity to satisfy 
our short and long-term liquidity needs as of December 31, 2015.   

We regularly adjust our investments in liquid assets based upon our assessment of: 

(i) 

expected loan demand; 

(ii) 

expected deposit flows; 

(iii) 

yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities; and 

(iv) 

the objectives of our asset/liability management program.   

Excess  liquid  assets  are  invested  generally  in  interest-earning  deposits,  short  and 
intermediate-term  securities  and  federal  funds  sold.  Our  most  liquid  assets  are  cash  and  cash 
equivalents.   The  levels of  these  assets are dependent on  our operating,  financing, lending and 

14 

investing activities during any given period. At December 31, 2015, cash and cash equivalents 
totaled $6.1 million.   

At  December  31,  2015,  we  had  $11.8  million  in  loan  commitments  outstanding.    In 
addition  to  commitments  to  originate  loans,  we  had  $15.8  million  in  unused  lines  of  credit 
outstanding  to  borrowers.  Certificates  of  deposit  (including  individual  retirement  accounts 
comprised solely of certificates of deposits), due within one year of December 31, 2015 totaled 
$61.6 million, or 60.7% of our certificates of deposit (including individual retirement accounts) 
and 33.2% of total deposits.  If these deposits do not remain with us, we will be required to seek 
other  sources  of  funds,  including  loan  sales,  other  deposit  products,  and  Federal  Home  Loan 
Bank borrowings. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on 
such  deposits  or  other  borrowings  than  we  currently  pay  on  the  existing  certificates  of  deposit 
due  on  or  before  December  31,  2016.  We  believe,  however,  based  on  past  experience  that  a 
significant portion of such deposits will remain with us. We have the ability to attract and retain 
deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered.  

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management.  If 
we require funds beyond our ability to generate them internally, borrowing agreements exist with 
the  Federal  Home  Loan  Bank  of  New  York,  which  provides  an  additional  source  of  funds.  
Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings decreased by $1.8 million to $46.1 million at December 
31, 2015, from $47.9 million at December 31, 2014.  At December 31, 2015, we had the ability 
to  borrow  approximately  $147.0  million  from  the  Federal  Home  Loan  Bank  of  New  York,  of 
which $46.1 million had been advanced.   

We  also  have  a  repurchase  agreement  with  Raymond  James  Financial  providing  an 
additional $10.0 million in liquidity.  Funds obtained under the repurchase agreement are secured 
by our U.S Government and agency obligations.  There were no advances outstanding under the 
repurchase agreement at December 31, 2015 or 2014. 

Fairport Savings Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements, including a 
risk-based capital measure.  The risk-based capital guidelines include both a definition of capital 
and a framework for calculating risk-weighted assets by assigning balance sheet assets and off-
balance  sheet  items  to  broad  risk  categories.    At  December  31,  2015,  Fairport  Savings  Bank 
exceeded  all  regulatory  capital  requirements  and  was  considered  “well  capitalized”  under 
regulatory guidelines. See Note 12 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.   

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements 

In  the  ordinary  course  of  business,  Fairport  Savings  Bank  is  a  party  to  credit-related 
financial  instruments  with  off-balance  sheet  risk  to  meet  the  financing  needs  of  our  customers.  
These  financial  instruments  include  commitments  to  extend  credit.    We  follow  the  same  credit 
policies in making commitments as we do for on-balance sheet instruments. 

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no 
violation  of  any  condition  established  in  the  contract.    Commitments  generally  have  fixed 
expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The commitments 
for equity lines of credit may expire without being drawn upon. Therefore, the total commitment 

15 

amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, 
if it is deemed necessary by us, is based on our credit evaluation of the customer. 

At December 31, 2015 and 2014, we had $11.8 million and $5.2 million, respectively, of 
commitments  to  grant  loans,  and  $15.8  million  and  $12.2  million,  respectively,  of  unfunded 
commitments  under  lines  of  credit.    We  had  one  commercial  letter  of  credit  for  $299,000  at 
December 31, 2015 and no letters of credit at December 31, 2014. 

For  additional  information,  see  Note  11  of  the  notes  to  our  consolidated  financial 

statements. 

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices 

Our consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance 
with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United  States  of  America  (“GAAP”).  
GAAP generally requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of 
historical  dollars  without  consideration  for  changes  in  the  relative  purchasing  power  of  money 
over  time  due  to  inflation.    The  impact  of  inflation  is  reflected  in  the  increased  cost  of  our 
operations.    Unlike  industrial  companies,  our  assets  and  liabilities  are  primarily  monetary  in 
nature.  As a result, changes in market interest rates have a greater impact on performance than 
the effects of inflation. 

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements  

For a  discussion  of  the  impact  of recent accounting  pronouncements, see  Note 1 of the 

notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 
December 31, 2015 and 2014 

Note 1 - Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 

Organization and Nature of Operations 

On  December 17,  2003,  Fairport  Savings  Bank’s  (the  “Bank”)  depositors  approved  a  Plan  of  Reorganization  (the 
“Plan”)  from  a  Federal  Mutual  Savings  Bank  to  a  Federal  Mutual  Holding  Company.    Under  the  Plan,  effective 
January 14, 2005, FSB Community Bankshares, MHC (the “Mutual Holding Company”) was incorporated under the 
laws of the United States as a mutual holding company.  Also under the Plan, FSB Community Bankshares, Inc. (the 
“Company”) was incorporated and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Mutual Holding Company.  In addition, 
effective  January 14,  2005,  the  Bank  completed  its  reorganization  whereby  the  Bank  converted  to  a  stock  savings 
bank and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. 

In August 2007, the Company completed its minority stock offering of 47% of the aggregate total voting stock of the 
Company.  In connection with the minority stock offering, 1,785,000 shares of common stock were issued, of which 
838,950 shares were sold, including 69,972 issued to the Company’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), at $10 
per share raising net proceeds of $7.4 million.  The stock was offered to the Bank’s eligible depositors, the Bank’s 
ESOP, and the public.  Additionally, the Company issued 946,050 shares, or 53% of its common stock, to the Mutual 
Holding Company. 

The  Company  provides  a  variety  of  financial  services  to  individuals  and  corporate  customers  through  its  wholly-
owned subsidiary, Fairport Savings Bank.  The Bank’s operations are conducted in five branches located in Monroe 
County, New York.  The Company and the Bank are subject to the regulations of certain regulatory authorities and 
undergo periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities. 

The Company’s principal business consists of originating one-to-four-family residential real estate mortgages, home 
equity  loans  and  lines  of  credit  and  to  a  lesser  extent,  originations  of  commercial  real  estate,  multi-family, 
construction,  commercial  and  industrial,  and  other  consumer  loans.    The  Company  has  five  mortgage  origination 
offices  located  in  Pittsford,  New  York,  Canandaigua,  New  York,  Watertown,  New  York,  Greece,  New  York,  and 
Buffalo, New York. 

The  Bank  also  provides  non-deposit  investment  services  to  its  customers  through  its  wholly-owned  subsidiary, 
Oakleaf    Services  Corporation  (“Oakleaf”).    As  of  January  15,  2016,  Oakleaf  Services  Corporation  has  become 
Fairport  Wealth  Management.  The  results  of  operations  of  Fairport  Wealth  Management  are  not  material  to  the 
consolidated financial statements. 

Basis of Consolidation 

The Mutual Holding Company, which engages in no significant business activity other than holding the stock of the 
Company,  is  not  included  in  the  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements.    The  consolidated  financial 
statements  include  the  accounts  of  the  Company,  the  Bank  and  Fairport  Wealth  Management.    All  significant 
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 

Use of Estimates 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in 
the  United  States  of  America  (“GAAP”)  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 
consolidated  financial  statements  and  the  reported  amounts  of  revenue  and  expense  during  the  reporting  period.  
Actual  results  could  differ  from  those  estimates.    Material  estimates  that  are  particularly  susceptible  to  significant 
changes  in  the  near  term  relate  to  the  determination  of  the  allowance  for  loan  losses,  deferred  tax  assets,  and  the 
estimation of fair values for accounting and disclosure purposes. 

The Company is subject to the regulations of various governmental agencies. The Company also undergoes periodic 
examinations by the regulatory agencies which may subject it to further changes with respect to asset valuations,  

2(cid:25) 

 
 
FSB Community Bankshares, Inc. 
Note 1 - Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) 

Use of Estimates (Continued) 

amounts of required loss allowances, and operating restrictions resulting from the regulators’ judgements based on 
information available to them at the time of their examinations. 

Cash and Cash Equivalents 

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash, balances due from 
banks and interest-bearing demand deposits (with an original maturity of three months or less). 

Significant Group Concentrations of Credit Risk 

Most  of  the  Company’s  activities  are  with  customers  located  within  Monroe,  Livingston,  Ontario,  Orleans,  and 
Wayne Counties, New York.  Note 2 discusses the types of securities that the Company invests in.  The concentration 
of credit by type of loan is set forth in Note 3.  Although the Bank has a diversified loan portfolio, its debtors’ ability 
to honor their contracts is primarily dependent upon the real estate and general economic conditions in those areas. 

Securities 

The Company classifies investment securities as either available for sale or held to maturity. The Company does not 
hold any securities considered to be trading. Available for sale securities are reported at fair value, with net unrealized 
gains and losses  reflected  as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, net of the applicable income tax effect. 
Held to maturity securities are those that the Company has the ability and intent to hold until maturity and are reported 
at amortized cost. These securities include those that were transferred from available for sale to held to maturity in the 
second quarter of 2014, and more fully explained in Note 2 to the financial statements. 

Gains  or  losses  on  investment  security  transactions  are  based  on  the  amortized  cost  of  the  specific  securities  sold. 
Premiums  and  discounts  on  securities  are  amortized  and  accreted  into  income  using  the  interest  method  over  the 
period to maturity.  

When  the  fair  value  of  a  held  to  maturity  or  available  for  sale  security  is  less  than  its  amortized  cost  basis,  an 
assessment is made at the balance sheet date as to whether other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) is present. 

The Company considers numerous factors when determining whether potential OTTI exists and the period over which 
the debt security is expected to recover.  The principal factors considered are (1) the length of time and the extent to 
which the fair value has been less than amortized cost basis, (2) the financial condition of the issuer (and guarantor, if 
any) and adverse conditions specifically related to the security industry or geographic area, (3) failure of the issuer of 
the security to make scheduled interest or principal payments, (4) any changes to the rating of a security by a rating 
agency, and (5) the presence of credit enhancements, if any, including the guarantee of the federal government or any 
of its agencies. 

For debt securities, OTTI is considered to have occurred if (1) the Company intends to sell the security, (2) it is more 
likely than not the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, or (3) if 
the present value of expected cash flows is not sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis or carrying value.   

For  debt  securities,  credit-related  OTTI  is  recognized  in  earnings  while  noncredit-related  OTTI  on  securities  not 
expected  to  be  sold  is  recognized  in  other  comprehensive  income  (loss).    Credit-related  OTTI  is  measured  as  the 
difference  between  the  present  value  of  an  impaired  security’s  expected  cash  flows  and  its  amortized  cost  basis  or 
carrying value.  Noncredit-related OTTI is measured as the difference between the fair value of the security and its 
amortized  cost,  or  carrying  value,  less  any  credit-related  losses  recognized.    For  securities  classified  as  held  to 
maturity,  the  amount  of  OTTI  recognized  in  other  comprehensive  income  (loss)  is  accreted  to  the  credit-adjusted 
expected cash flow amounts of the securities over future periods.   

Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk 
associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment  

2(cid:26) 

 
FSB Community Bankshares, Inc. 
Note 1 - Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) 

Securities (Continued) 

securities  will  occur  in  the  near  term  and  that  such  changes  could  materially  affect  the  amounts  reported  in  the 
accompanying financial statements. 

Federal Home Loan Bank of New York 

Federal law requires a member institution of the Federal Home Loan Bank System to hold stock of its district Federal 
Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) according to a predetermined formula.  This restricted stock is carried at cost. 

Management’s  determination  of  whether  this  investment  is  impaired  is  based  on  their  assessment  of  the  ultimate 
recoverability  of  its  cost  rather  than  by  recognizing  temporary  declines  in  value.    The  determination  of  whether  a 
decline affects the ultimate recoverability of cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in 
net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has 
persisted,  (2)  commitments  by  the  FHLB  to  make  payments  required  by  law  or  regulation  and  the  level  of  such 
payments  in  relation  to  the  operating  performance  of  the  FHLB,  and  (3)  the  impact  of  legislative  and  regulatory 
changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB. 

No impairment charges were recorded related to the FHLB stock during 2015 or 2014. 

Loans Held for Sale 

Mortgage  loans  held  for  sale  in  the  secondary  market  are  carried  at  the  lower  of  cost  or  fair  value.    Separate 
determinations  of  fair  value  for  residential  and  commercial  loans  are  made  on  an  aggregate  basis.    Fair  value  is 
determined based solely on the effect of changes in secondary market interest rates and yield requirements from the 
commitment date to the date of the consolidated financial statements. Realized gains and losses on sales are computed 
using the specific identification method.   

Loan Servicing Rights 

The Company retains the servicing on most fixed-rate mortgage loans sold and receives a fee based on the principal 
balance outstanding.   

Loans serviced for others totaled $85,858,000 and $59,201,000 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.  

The Company also sells correspondent FHA and VA mortgage loans, servicing released. 

Loan servicing rights are recorded at fair value when loans are sold with servicing rights retained. The fair value of 
the mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) is determined using a method which utilizes servicing income, discount rates, 
and prepayment speeds relative to the Bank’s portfolio for MSRs and are amortized over the life of the loan. MSRs 
amounted to $561,000 and $366,000 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and are included in other assets on 
the consolidated balance sheets. In 2015, $227,000 was capitalized and $32,000 was amortized.  In 2014, $206,000 
was capitalized with $28,000 amortized. 

Loans 

Loans  that  management  has  the  intent  and  ability  to  hold  for  the  foreseeable  future  or  until  maturity  or  pay-off 
generally are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan 
losses, and net deferred origination fees and costs.  Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance.  Loan 
origination  fees,  net  of  certain  direct  origination  costs,  are  deferred  and  recognized  as  an  adjustment  of  the  related 
loan yield using the interest method over the estimated life of the loan.  

The accrual of interest is generally discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 
days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even though the 
loan is currently performing.  A loan may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is well

secured.    When  a  loan  is  placed  on  nonaccrual  status,  unpaid  interest  credited  to  income  in  the  current  year  is 
reversed.  Interest  received  on  nonaccrual  loans  generally  is  either  applied  against  principal  or  reported  as  interest 
income,  according  to  management’s  judgment  as  to  the  collectability  of  principal.    Generally,  loans  are  restored  to 
accrual  status  when the obligation is brought  current, has performed in accordance with the  contractual terms for a 
reasonable period of time and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in 
doubt. 

Allowance for Loan Losses 

The allowance for loan losses (the “Allowance”) is established as losses are estimated to have occurred in the loan 
portfolio.  The allowance for loan losses is recorded through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings.  Loan 
losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the loan is uncollectable.  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 collectability 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,  the  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 specific, general and unallocated components.  The specific component relates to loans that 
are deemed impaired and classified as either special mention, substandard, doubtful, or loss.  For such loans that are 
also  classified  as  impaired,  an  allowance  is  generally  established  when  the  collateral  value  of  the  impaired  loan  is 
lower  than  the  carrying  value  of  that  loan.    The  general  component  covers  non-classified  loans  and  is  based  on 
historical loss experience adjusted for the following qualitative factors: effects of changes in lending policies; national 
and/or local economic trends and conditions; trends in volume and terms of loans; experience, ability, and depth of 
management; levels and trends of delinquencies, non-accruals and classified loans; quality of institutions loan review 
system; collateral value for collateral dependent loans; concentrations of credit; and competition, legal and regulatory 
requirements on level of estimated credit losses. An unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that 
could  affect  management’s  estimate  of  probable  losses.    The  unallocated  component  of  the  allowance  reflects  the 
margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and 
general losses in the portfolio. 

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 by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at 
the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. 

Large  groups  of  smaller  balance  homogeneous  loans  are  collectively  evaluated  for  impairment.    Accordingly,  the 
Company  does  not  separately  identify  individual  consumer  and  residential  loans  for  impairment  disclosures  unless 
subject to a troubled debt restructuring. 

In  addition,  Federal  regulatory  agencies,  as  an  integral  part  of  their  examination  process,  periodically  review  the 
Company’s allowance for loan losses and may require the Company to recognize additions to the allowance based on 
their judgements about information available to them at the time of their examination, which may not be currently

available  to  management.  Based  on  management’s  comprehensive  analysis  of  the  loan  portfolio,  management 
believes the current level of the allowance for loan losses is adequate. 

Bank Owned Life Insurance 

The Company holds life insurance policies on a key executive. Bank owned life insurance is recorded at the amount 
that can be realized under the insurance contract at the balance sheet date, which is the cash surrender value adjusted 
for other charges or other amounts due that are probable at settlement. 

Premises and Equipment 

Premises and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation and amortization are computed on the straight-line basis over 
the shorter of the estimated useful lives or lease terms (in the case of leasehold improvements) of the related assets.  
Estimated useful lives are generally 20 to 30 years for premises and 3 to 10 years for furniture and equipment. 

Foreclosed Real Estate 

Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less estimated 
selling  costs  at  the  date  of  foreclosure.    Any  write-downs  based  on  the  asset’s  fair  value  at  date  of  acquisition  are 
charged to the allowance for loan losses.  After foreclosure, property held for sale is carried at the lower of the new 
basis or fair value less any costs to sell.   Costs of significant property improvements are capitalized, whereas costs 
relating to holding property are expensed.  Valuations are periodically performed by management, and any subsequent 
write-downs  are  recorded  as  a  charge  to  earnings,  if  necessary,  to  reduce  the  carrying  value  of  the  property  to  the 
lower of its cost or fair value less cost to sell. The Company had no foreclosed real estate at December 31, 2015 and 
2014. 

Income Taxes 

Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of certain transactions reported in the consolidated financial statements.  
Income taxes consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to temporary differences between the 
financial reporting and income tax basis of the allowance for loan losses, premises and equipment, certain state tax 
credits,  and  deferred  loan  origination  costs.    The  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  represent  the  future  tax  return 
consequences of the temporary differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities 
are  recovered  or  settled.    Deferred  tax  assets  are  reduced  by  a  valuation  allowance  when,  in  the  opinion  of 
management, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  Deferred tax 
assets  and  liabilities  are  reflected  at  income  tax  rates  applicable  to  the  period  in  which  the  deferred  tax  assets  and 
liabilities are expected to be realized or settled.  As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and 
liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. 

Advertising Costs 

The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising to expense as incurred. 

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.  Such financial instruments are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets when they 
are funded. 

Transfers of Financial Assets 

Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered.  Control 
over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the 
transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or

exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets 
through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity. 

Comprehensive Income (Loss) 

Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains, and losses be included in earnings.  
Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, 
are  reported  as  a  separate  component  of  the  stockholders’  equity  section  of  the  consolidated  balance  sheets,  such 
items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income (loss). 

Accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) represents the sum of these items, with the exception of net income, as 
of the balance sheet date and is represented in the table below.

Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common 
shares outstanding during the period. The Company has not granted any restricted stock awards or stock options and, 
during  the  years  ended  December  31,  2015  and  2014,  had  no  potentially  dilutive  common  stock  equivalents. 
Unallocated common shares held by the ESOP are not included in the weighted-average number of common shares 
outstanding for purposes of calculating basic earnings per common share until they are committed to be released.  The  
average  common  shares  outstanding  were  1,739,785  and  1,737,784  for  the  years  ended  December  31,  2015  and 
December 31, 2014 respectively.   

Treasury Stock 

Treasury stock is recorded using the cost method and accordingly is presented as a reduction of stockholders’ equity. 

Reclassifications 

Amounts in the prior year’s consolidated financial statements have been reclassified whenever necessary to conform 
to  the  current  year’s  presentation.    Such  reclassifications  had  no  impact  on  stockholders’  equity  or  net  income  as 
previously reported.

New Accounting Pronouncements 

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, "Financial Instruments—Overall (Topic 825-10): "Recognition and  
Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities." ASU 2016-01 amends the guidance on the classification 
and  measurement  of  financial  instruments.  Some  of  the  amendments  in  ASU 2016-01  include  the  following: 
1) requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result 
in  consolidation  of  the  investee)  to  be  measured  at  fair  value  with  changes  in  fair  value  recognized  in  net  income; 
2) simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a 
qualitative  assessment  to  identify  impairment;  3) requires  public  business  entities  to  use  the  exit  price  notion  when 
measuring  the  fair  value  of  financial  instruments  for  disclosure  purposes;  and  4) requires  an  entity  to  present 
separately in other comprehensive income 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 entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value; among 
others.  For  public  business  entities,  the  amendments  of  ASU 2016-01  are  effective  for  fiscal  years  beginning  after 
December 15,  2017,  including  interim  periods  within  those  fiscal  years.  The  Company  is  currently  evaluating  the 
effects of the ASU 2016-01 on its financial statements and disclosures, if any. 

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU No. 
2016-02  to  increase  transparency  and  comparability  among  organizations  by  recognizing  lease  assets  and  lease 
liabilities on the balance sheet and by disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. 

Under the new guidance a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more 
than 12 months. Consistent with current GAAP, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash 
flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend primarily on its classification as a finance or an operating lease (i.e., 
the classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the 
classification  criteria  for  distinguishing  between  capital  leases  and  operating  leases  under  the  previous  guidance). 
However, unlike current GAAP, which requires only capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet, ASU No. 
2016-02 will require both operating and finance leases to be recognized on the balance sheet. Additionally, the ASU 
will require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and 
uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases, including qualitative and quantitative requirements. Lessor accounting 
will remain largely unchanged from current GAAP. However, the ASU contains some targeted improvements that are 
intended to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and with the updated revenue 
recognition guidance issued in 2014. 

The  amendments  in  ASU  No.  2016-02  are  effective  for  fiscal  years  beginning  after  December  15,  2018,  including 
interim periods within those fiscal years, for (1) public business entities, (2) not-for-profit entities that have issued, or 
are  conduit  bond  obligors  for,  securities  that  are  traded,  listed,  or  quoted  on  an  exchange  or  an  over-the-counter 
market,  and  (3)  employee  benefit  plans  that  file  financial  statements  with  the  SEC.  For  all  other  entities,  the 
amendments  are  effective  for  fiscal  years  beginning  after  December  15,  2019,  and  for  interim  periods  within  fiscal 
years  beginning  after  December  15,  2020.  Early  application  is  permitted  for  all entities.   The  Company  is  currently 
evaluating the effects of the ASU 2016-02 on its financial statements and disclosures, if any.

Mortgage-backed securities consist of securities that are issued by Fannie Mae (“FNMA”), Freddie Mac (“FHLMC”), 
Ginnie  Mae  (“GNMA”),  and  are  collateralized  by  residential  mortgages.    U.S.  Government  and  agency  obligations 
include  notes  and  bonds  with  both  fixed  and  variable  rates.    State  and  municipal  securities  consist  of  government 
obligation and revenue bonds. SBA pools are pass through securities using the guaranteed portion of SBA loans to be 
sold in the secondary market. 

During the second quarter of 2014, the Company transferred securities with an amortized cost of $10,000,000 from 
available for  sale to held to  maturity.  The fair value of the securities transferred  as of the  date of the  transfer  was 
$9,628,490 with a net unrealized loss of $371,510.  The unrealized loss amounts in accumulated other comprehensive 
loss  are  amortized  simultaneously  against  interest  income  as  the  discount  is  accreted  on  the  transferred  securities.  
There  is  no  effect  on  net  income  as  the  discount  accretion  offsets  the  accumulated  other  comprehensive  loss 
amortization.  Management  decided  to  transfer  these  securities  to  reduce  the  volatility  of  the  fair  market  value  as 
market conditions effect the available for sale securities portfolio.

(1)  Aggregate unrealized loss position of these securities is less than $500. 

Management  evaluates  securities  for  other-than-temporary  impairment  at  least  on  a  quarterly  basis,  and  more   
frequently  when  economic  or  market  concerns  warrant  such  evaluation.    In  2015  and  2014,  the  Company  did  not 
record an other-than-temporary impairment charge. 

At December 31, 2015, six U.S. Government and agency obligations, five residential mortgage-backed securities and 
two  state  and  municipal  securities  were  in  a  continuous  unrealized  loss  position  for  less  than  twelve  months.    At 
December  31,  2015,  one  residential  mortgage-backed  security  and  two  state  and  municipal  securities  were  in  a 
continuous unrealized loss position for more than twelve months. The debt securities and residential mortgage-backed

general  obligation  (G.O.)  bonds  backed  by  the  full  faith  and  credit  of  local  municipalities.  There  has  never  been  a 
default of a New York G.O. in the history of the state. Historical performance does not guarantee future performance, 
but it does indicate that the risk of loss on default of a G.O. municipal bond for the Company is relatively low. All are 
paying in accordance with their terms and with no deferrals of interest or defaults. Because the decline in fair value is 
attributable to changes in interest rates, not credit quality, and because management does not intend to sell and will 
not  be  required  to  sell  these  securities  prior  to  recovery  or  maturity,  no  declines  are  deemed  to  be  other-than-
temporary.

The loan portfolio is segmented into commercial and consumer loans. Commercial loans consist of commercial real 
estate and commercial and industrial classes. Commercial and industrial loans consist of the following classes: lines 
of credit, term, revolving, and overdraft protection. Consumer loans consist of the following classes: residential real 
estate  secured  by  one-to-four-family  residences,  residential  real  estate  secured  by  multi-family  residences, 
construction, home equity lines of credit, and other loans.   

The Company’s primary lending activity is the origination of one-to-four-family residential real estate mortgage 
loans.  At December 31, 2015, $177.0 million, or 87.5%, of the total loan portfolio consisted of one-to-four-family 
residential real estate mortgage loans compared to $169.3 million, or 89.5%, of the total loan portfolio at December 
31, 2014.    

The Company offers home equity lines of credit, which are primarily secured by a second mortgage on one-to-four-
family residences. At December 31, 2015, home equity lines of credit totaled $14.5 million, or 7.2%, of total loans 
receivable compared to $13.4 million, or 7.0%, of total loans receivable at December 31, 2014.   

The underwriting standards for home equity lines of credit include a determination of the applicant’s credit history, an 
assessment of the applicant’s ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan and the value of 
the collateral securing the loan.  The combined loan-to-value ratio (first and second mortgage liens) for home equity

lines of credit is generally limited to 90%.  The Company originates home equity lines of credit without application 
fees or borrower-paid closing costs. Home equity lines of credit are offered with adjustable-rates of interest indexed to 
the prime rate, as reported in The Wall Street Journal.   

Note 3 – Loans and The Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued) 

Multi-family residential  loans  generally  are  secured  by  rental  properties.    Multi-family  real  estate  loans  are  offered 
with fixed and adjustable interest rates.  Loans secured by multi-family real estate totaled $5.1 million, or 2.5%, of the 
total loan portfolio at December 31, 2015 compared to $3.8 million, or 2.0%, of the total loan portfolio at December 
31, 2014.  Multi-family real estate loans are originated for terms of up to 20 years.  Adjustable-rate multi-family real 
estate loans are tied to the average yield on U.S. Treasury securities, subject to periodic and lifetime limitations on 
interest rate changes.   

Loans  secured  by  multi-family  real  estate  generally  involve  a  greater  degree  of  credit  risk  than  one-to  four-family 
residential  mortgage  loans  and  carry  larger  loan  balances.    This  increased  credit  risk  is  a  result  of  several  factors, 
including the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers, the effects of general economic 
conditions on income producing properties, and the increased difficulty of evaluating and monitoring these types of 
loans.  Furthermore, the repayment of loans secured by multi-family real estate typically depends upon the successful 
operation of the real estate property securing the loans.  If the cash flow from the project is reduced, the borrower’s 
ability to repay the loan may be impaired. 

The  Company  originates  construction  loans  for  the  purchase  of  developed  lots  and  for  the  construction  of  single-
family residences.  At December 31, 2015, construction loans totaled $1.3 million, or 0.6%, of total loans receivable 
compared to $1.1 million, or 0.6%, at December 31, 2014.  At December 31, 2015, the additional unadvanced portion 
of these construction loans totaled $1.3 million compared to $1.1 million at December 31, 2014. Construction loans 
are  offered 
their  personal  residences  by  a  qualified  builder

Before making a commitment to fund a construction loan, the Company requires an appraisal of the property by an 
independent licensed appraiser.  The Company generally also reviews and inspects each property before disbursement 
of funds during the term of the construction loan. 

Construction financing generally involves greater credit risk than long-term financing on improved, owner-occupied 
real estate.  Risk of loss on a construction loan depends largely upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the value 
of the property at completion of construction compared to the estimated cost (including interest) of construction and 
other  assumptions.    If  the  estimate  of  construction  cost  proves  to  be  inaccurate,  the  Company  may  be  required  to 
advance  additional  funds  beyond  the  amount  originally  committed  in  order  to  protect  the  value  of  the  property.  
Moreover, if the estimated value of the completed project proves to be inaccurate, the borrower may hold a property 
with a value that is insufficient to assure full repayment of the loan. 

Commercial  real  estate  loans  are  secured  by  office  buildings,  mixed  use  properties,  places  of  worship  and  other 
commercial properties.  Loans secured by commercial real estate totaled $3.5 million, or 1.7%, of the Company’s total 
loan portfolio at December 31, 2015 compared to $1.4 million, or 0.7%, of our total loan portfolio at December 31, 
2014. 

The  Company  generally  originates  adjustable-rate  commercial  real  estate  loans  with  maximum  terms  of  up  to  15 
years.  The maximum loan-to-value ratio of commercial real estate loans is 80%.   

Loans  secured  by  commercial  real  estate  generally  are  larger  than  one-to-four-family  residential  loans  and  involve 
greater credit risk.  Commercial real estate loans often involve large loan balances to single borrowers or groups of 
related borrowers.  Repayment of these loans depends to a large degree on the results of operations and management 
of the properties securing the loans or the businesses conducted on such property, and may be affected to a greater 
extent  by  adverse  conditions  in  the  real  estate  market  or  the  economy  in  general.    Accordingly,  the  nature  of  these 
loans makes them more difficult for management to monitor and evaluate.

The commercial and industrial product set includes loans to individuals or businesses on an installment basis secured 
by vehicles, equipment or other durable goods for which the loans were made, loans for and secured by machinery 
and/or equipment for which a legitimate resale market exists, lines of credit to businesses and individuals, and  

Note 3 – Loans and The Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued) 

unsecured  loans  to  businesses  and  individuals  on  a  short-term  basis.  At  December  31,  2015,  these  loans  totaled 
$853,000, or 0.4%, of the total loan portfolio.   

These loans carry a higher risk than commercial real estate loans by the nature of the underlying collateral, which can 
be  business  assets  such  as  equipment  and  accounts  receivable.    To  reduce  the  risk,  management  also  attempts  to 
secure secondary collateral, such as real estate, and obtain personal guarantees of the borrowers.  To further reduce  
risk and enhance liquidity, these loans generally carry variable rates of interest, repricing in five year periods, and 
have a maturity of ten years or less.  

In 2014, the Company applied and was approved as an SBA lender.  SBA acts as a loan guarantor and these loans are 
generally  for  commercial  business  purposes  versus  real  estate.    The  Company  follows  the  Small  Business 
Administration lending guidelines regarding eligibility, underwriting etc. as stated in SBA’s most current version of 
SOP 50 10 SBA’s Lender and Development Company Loan Program. 

The Company offers a variety of other loans secured by property other than real estate.  At December 31, 2015, these 
other loans totaled $61,000, or 0.1%, of the total loan portfolio compared to other loans totaling $65,000, or 0.1%, of 
the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2014. These loans include automobile, passbook, overdraft protection and  
unsecured loans. Due to the relative immateriality of other loans, the Company’s risk associated with these loans is 
not considered significant. 

The following table sets forth the allowance for loan losses allocated by loan class and the activity in the allowance 
for  loan  losses  for  the  years  ending  December  31,  2015  and  2014.  The  allowance  for  loan  losses  allocated  to  each 
class is not necessarily indicative of future losses in any particular class and does not restrict the use of the allowance 
to absorb losses in other classes.

The  Company’s  policies,  consistent  with  regulatory  guidelines,  provide  for  the  classification  of  loans  that  are 
considered to be of lesser quality as substandard, doubtful, or loss assets. An asset is considered substandard if it is 
inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any.  

38 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
          
 
 
 
 
FSB Community Bankshares, Inc. 

Substandard assets include those assets characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some 
loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.  Assets classified as doubtful have all of the weaknesses inherent in those 
classified as substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in 
full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable.  Assets (or  

Note 3 – Loans and The Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued) 

portions of assets) classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as 
assets is not warranted.  Assets that do not expose the Company to risk sufficient to warrant classification in one of 
the aforementioned categories, but which possess potential weaknesses that deserve close attention, are required to be 
designated as special mention.     

When the Company classifies assets as pass a portion of the related general loss allowances is allocated to such assets 
as deemed prudent.  The allowance for  loan losses  is  the  amount estimated  by management  as necessary to absorb 
credit losses incurred in the loan portfolio that are both probable and reasonably estimable at the balance sheet date.  
The Company’s determination as to the classification of its assets and the amount of its loss allowances are subject to  
review by its principal state regulator, the New York State Department of Financial Services, which can require that 
the Company establish additional loss allowances.  The Company regularly reviews its asset portfolio to determine  
whether any assets require classification in accordance with applicable regulations.     

       At December 31, 2015 and 2014, there were no loans considered to be impaired and no troubled debt restructurings. 

       The following table presents the risk category of loans by class at December 31, 2015 and 2014:

equity line of credit for $18,000, and one nonaccrual checking line of credit for $1,000, and at December 31, 2014, the 
Company had one nonaccrual residential mortgage loan for $56,000 and one nonaccrual home equity line of credit for 
$18,000.  There were no loans that were past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest at December 31, 2015 
and 2014.  Interest on non-accrual loans that would have been earned if loans were accruing interest was immaterial

The Company’s effective tax rate was 21% and 31% in 2015 and 2014, respectively. The effective tax rate primarily 
reflects  the  impact  of  non-tax  interest  and  dividends  from  tax  exempt  securities,  as  well  as  a  partial  release  of  a 
component of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance during 2015.  

Items that give rise to differences between income tax expense included in the consolidated statements of income and 
taxes computed by applying the statutory federal tax at a rate of 34% in 2015 or 2014 included the following (dollars in

The Company has recorded a valuation allowance for state tax deductions and mortgage recording tax credits since 
anticipated levels of future state taxable income makes it more likely than not that all of these tax benefits will not be 
used.  In  addition,  a  valuation  allowance  in  the  amount  of  $88,000  was  established  in  2010  against  a  portion  of the 
allowance for loan loss because future realization of the full tax benefit of that deferred tax asset was deemed to be 
unlikely.  After  fully  utilizing  its  Federal  Net  Operating  Loss  (“NOL”)  carryforward  during  2013  and  realizing 
increased and consistent current taxable income over the past 3 years, management determined that half (or $44,000) 
of that component of the valuation allowance should be reversed during 2015, with the remaining to be assessed in 
future years.  

As a thrift institution, the Bank is subject to special provisions in the income tax laws regarding its allowable income 
tax bad debt deduction and related tax basis bad debt reserves.  Deferred income tax liabilities are to be recognized 
with respect to any base-year reserves which are to become taxable (or "recaptured") in the foreseeable future. 

Under  current  income  tax  laws,  the  base-year  reserves  would  be  subject  to  recapture  if  the  Company  pays  a  cash 
dividend  in  excess  of  earnings  and  profits  or  liquidates.    The  Bank  does  not  expect  to  take  any  actions  in  the 
foreseeable future that would require the recapture of any Federal reserves. As a result, a deferred tax liability has not 
been recognized with respect to the Federal base-year reserve of $1,518,000 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, because 
the Bank does not expect that this amount will become taxable in the foreseeable future. The unrecognized deferred 
tax liability with respect to the Federal base-year reserve was $516,000 at December 31, 2015 and 2014. It is more

likely than not that this liability will never be incurred because, as noted above, the Bank does not expect to take any

Note 9 - Employee Benefit Plans 

The Bank has a 401(k) plan for all eligible employees.  Employees are eligible for participation in the 401(k) Plan after 
one year of service and attaining age 21.  The 401(k) Plan allows employees to contribute 1% to 100% of their annual 
salary  subject  to  statutory  limitations.    Matching  contributions  made  by  the  Bank  are  100%  of  the  first  6%  of 
compensation  that  an  employee  contributes  to  the  401(k)  Plan.    In  addition,  the  Bank  may  make  a  discretionary 
contribution as a percentage of each eligible employee’s annual base compensation including the value of ESOP shares 
allocated.    Matching  contributions  to  the  401(k)  Plan  amounted  to  $174,000  and  $156,000  for  the  years  ended 
December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.  Discretionary contributions to the 401(k) Plan were $72,000 and $70,000 
for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.   

The Bank sponsors an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) for eligible employees who have attained age 21 and 
completed one year of employment. The cost of shares not committed to be released is presented in the accompanying 
consolidated  balance  sheets  as  a  reduction  of  stockholders’  equity.    Allocations  to  individual  accounts  are  based  on 
participant compensation. As shares are committed to be released to participants, the Company reports compensation 
expense  equal  to  the  current  market  price  of  the  shares  and  the  shares  become  outstanding  for  earnings  per  share 
computations. The difference between the market price and the cost of shares committed to be released is recorded as 
an adjustment to additional paid-in-capital. Any dividends on allocated shares reduce retained earnings. Any dividends 
on unallocated ESOP shares reduce debt and accrued interest.  In connection with establishing the ESOP in 2007, the 
ESOP borrowed $700,000 from the Company to purchase 69,972 common shares of the Company’s stock.  The loan is 
being repaid in twenty equal annual installments through 2026.  The loan bears interest at the prime rate. 

Shares are released to participants on a straight line basis as the loan is repaid and totaled 3,498 shares for each of the 
years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.  Total expense for the ESOP was $35,000 and $29,000 for 
the  years  ended  December  31,  2015  and  2014,  respectively.    At  December  31,  2015,  the  Company  had  38,485 
unearned ESOP shares having an aggregate market value of $403,323. 

The Bank has a supplemental executive retirement plan (SERP) for two of its executives.  All benefits provided under 
the SERP are unfunded and, as these executives retire, the Company will make payments to participants. The Company 
has recorded $621,000 and $495,000 at December 31, 2015 and 2014 respectively, for the SERP in other liabilities. In 
2015 and 2014, the expense under the SERP totaled $125,000 and $95,000, respectively.

Note 10 - Related Party Transactions 

Certain employees, executive officers and directors are engaged in transactions with the Bank in the ordinary course of 
business.  It is the Bank’s policy that all related party transactions are conducted at “arms length” and all loans and 
commitments  included  in  such  transactions  are  made  in  the  ordinary  course  of  business,  on  substantially  the  same 
terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with persons 
not  related  to  the  Bank  and  do  not  involve  more  than  the  normal  risk  of  collectability  or  present  other  unfavorable 
terms. 

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, loans outstanding with related parties were $168,000 and $423,000, respectively. 
During 2015, there were new loans of $17,000 and repayments totaled $272,000.   

Note 11 - Commitments 

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the 
financing  needs  of  its  customers.    These  financial  instruments  include  commitments  to  extend  credit.    These 
instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in 
the  consolidated  balance  sheets.    The  Bank  uses  the  same  credit  policies  in  making  commitments  and  conditional 
obligations  as  it  does  for  on-balance-sheet  instruments.    The  Bank’s  exposure  to  credit  loss  in  the  event  of 
nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the 
contractual amount of those instruments summarized as follows at December 31, 2015 and 2014:

Commitments to grant loans at fixed-rates at December 31, 2015 totaled $5,842,000 and had interest rates that ranged             
from 3.25% to 4.875%. 

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition 
established in the contract.  Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may 
require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total 
commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. 

The  Bank  evaluates  each  customer’s  credit  worthiness  on  a  case-by-case  basis.    The  amount  and  type  of  collateral 
obtained,  if  deemed  necessary  by  the  Bank  upon  extension  of  credit,  varies  and  is  based  on  management’s  credit 
evaluation of the counterparty. 

Note 12 - Regulatory Matters 

The  Bank  is  subject  to  various  regulatory  capital  requirements.  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 Company’s consolidated financial statements.  Under capital adequacy guidelines and the 
regulatory  framework  for  prompt  corrective  action,  the  Bank  must  meet  specific  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 subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about 
components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Note 12 - Regulatory Matters (Continued) 

Quantitative  measures  established  by  regulation  to  ensure  capital  adequacy  require  the  Bank  to  maintain  minimum 
amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total, Tier 1 capital (as defined), and Common Equity Tier 1 capital 
(as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 to adjusted total assets (as defined).  
Management  believes  that,  as  of  December  31,  2015  and  2014,  the  Bank  met  all  capital  adequacy  requirements  to 
which it was subject.  As of December 31, 2015, the most recent notification 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 1 risk-based, Common Equity Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as 
set forth in the following table.   

There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s status as 
well capitalized.

At December 31, 2015 the Company’s consolidated equity totaled $21,760,000 compared to the Bank’s equity capital 
of $20,085,000. See Note 14 for details concerning the Company’s consolidated equity.  

The FRB has issued a policy guidance regarding the payment of dividends by bank holding companies that it has made 
applicable to savings and loan holding companies as well.  In general, the FRB’s policies provide that dividends should 
be  paid  only  out  of  current  earnings  and  only  if  the  prospective  rate  of  earnings  retention  by  the  holding  company 
appears consistent with the organization’s capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition.  FRB guidance 
provides for prior regulatory review of capital distributions in certain circumstances such as where the company’s net 
income  for  the  past  four  quarters,  net  of  dividends  previously  paid  over  that  period,  is  insufficient  to  fully  fund  the 
dividend  or  the  company’s  overall  rate  of  earnings  retention  is  inconsistent  with  the  company’s  capital  needs  and 
overall financial condition.  The ability of a holding company to pay dividends may be restricted if a subsidiary bank 
becomes  undercapitalized.  These  regulatory  policies  could  affect  the  ability  of  FSB  Community  Bankshares  to  pay 
dividends or otherwise engage in capital distributions.

Note 12 - Regulatory Matters (Continued) 

In  the  ordinary  course  of  business,  the  Bank  sells  residential  mortgage  loans  to  third  parties  and  in  certain  limited 
situations, such as in the event of an early payment default, the Bank retains credit risk exposure on those residential 
mortgage loans and may be required to repurchase them or to indemnify guarantors for certain losses. The Bank may 
also  be  required  to  repurchase  residential  mortgage  loans  when  representations  and  warranties  made  by  the  Bank  in 
connection  with  those  sales  are  breached.  When  a  residential  mortgage  loan  sold  to  an  investor  fails  to  perform 
according  to  its  contractual  terms,  the  investor  will  typically  review  the  loan  file  to  search  for  errors  that  may  have 
been  made  in  the  process  of  originating  the  loan.  If  errors  were  discovered  and  it  is  determined  that  such  errors 
constitute  a  breach  of  a  representation  or  warranty  made  to  the  investor  in  connection  with  the  Bank’s  sale  of  the 
residential mortgage loan, the Bank will be required to either repurchase the loan or indemnify the investor for losses 
sustained. The bank has not been required to repurchase any residential mortgage loans or indemnify any investors for 
any such errors. 

Note 13 - Fair Value Measurement and Fair Values of Financial Instruments 

Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities; however, there 
are  inherent  weaknesses  in  any  estimation  technique.    Therefore,  for  substantially  all  assets  and  liabilities,  the  fair 
value  estimates  herein  are  not  necessarily  indicative  of  the  amounts  the  Company  could  have  realized  in  a  sales 
transaction on the dates indicated.  The estimated fair value amounts have been measured as of their respective year-
ends and have not been re-evaluated or updated for purposes of these consolidated financial statements subsequent to 
those  respective  dates.    As  such,  the  estimated  fair  values  of  assets  and  liabilities  subsequent  to  the  respective 
reporting dates may be different than the amounts reported at each year-end.  

Accounting guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure 
fair value.  The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or 
liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three 
levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows: 

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

Level 2:  Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for 
substantially the full term of the asset or liability. 

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

An asset or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the 
fair value measurement.

There  were  no  securities  transferred  out  of  level  2  securities  available  for  sale  during  the  twelve  months  ended 
December 31, 2015. No assets or liabilities have been  measured on a non-recurring basis at December  31, 2015 or 
2014. 

Required  disclosures  include  fair  value  information  about  financial  instruments,  whether  or  not  recognized  in  the 
consolidated balance sheets, for which it is practicable to estimate that value.  In cases where quoted market prices are 
not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques.  Those techniques 
are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows.  In 
that regard, the fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, 
could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument.  Certain financial instruments and all non-financial 
instruments are excluded from the disclosure requirements.  Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented 
do not represent the underlying value of the Company. 

Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons 
between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies  may not be meaningful.  The following methods 
and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities at December 
31, 2015 and 2014. 

Cash, Due from Banks, and Interest Bearing Demand Deposits 

The carrying amounts of these assets approximate their fair values. 

Investment Securities 

The fair value of securities available for sale (carried at fair value) and held to maturity (carried at amortized cost) are 
determined by matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities 
without  relying  exclusively  on  quoted  market  prices  for  the  specific  securities  but  rather  relying  on  the  securities’ 
relationship to other benchmark quoted prices and is considered to be a Level 2 measurement.

Note 13 - Fair Value Measurement and Fair Values of Financial Instruments (Continued) 

Investment in FHLB Stock 

The carrying value of FHLB stock approximates its fair value based on the redemption provisions of the FHLB stock, 
resulting in a Level 2 classification. 

Loans 

The fair values of loans held in portfolio are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market rates at the 
balance sheet date that reflect the credit and interest rate-risk inherent in the loans, resulting in a Level 3 classification.  
Projected  future  cash  flows  are  calculated  based  upon  contractual  maturity  or  call  dates,  projected  repayments  and 
prepayments of principal.  Generally, for variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in 
credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.   

Mortgage loans held for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, resulting in a Level 
2 classification.  Separate determinations of fair value for residential and commercial loans are made on an aggregate 
basis.    Fair  value  is  determined  based  solely  on  the  effect  of  changes  in  secondary  market  interest  rates  and  yield 
requirements from the commitment date to the date of the financial statements.  

Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable 

The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and payable approximates fair value. 

Deposits 

The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., NOW accounts, non-interest checking, regular savings and certain 
types of money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., 
their carrying amounts), resulting in a Level 1 classification.  The carrying amounts for variable-rate  certificates of 
deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date, resulting in a Level 1 classification.  Fair values for fixed-
rate  certificates  of  deposit  are  estimated  using  a  discounted  cash  flow  calculation  that  applies  market  interest  rates 
currently  being  offered  on  certificates  to  a  schedule  of  aggregated  expected  monthly  maturities  on  time  deposits, 
resulting in a Level 2 classification.

Borrowings 

The  fair  values  of  FHLB  long-term  borrowings  are  estimated  using  discounted  cash  flow  analyses,  based  on  the 
quoted rates for new FHLB advances with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity, resulting 
in a Level 2 classification.   

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at December 31, 2015 and
