March 31, 2014 

Dear Shareholders: 

I am pleased to report that net income for 2013 increased 76% over 2012 and is at its highest level since 2007.  For 2013, Hawthorn reported 
a net profit of $5.0 million compared to $2.8 million for 2012.  As a result of higher earnings and repayment of the Company’s U.S. Treasury 
debt, income available to common shareholders increased for 2013 to $4.4 million, or $0.87 per diluted common share, compared to $1.0 
million, or $0.21 per diluted common share for 2012.    

Our improved earnings performance in 2013 was primarily the result of continued improvement in asset quality which allowed us to reduce 
our loan loss provision. The provision for loan losses for 2013 was $2.0 million compared to $8.9 million for 2012.  Non-performing loans 
decreased $4.1 million to 4.21% of total loans at December 31, 2013, from 4.65% at December 31, 2012.  During the year, net charge-offs 
were $3.2 million compared to $7.9 million for 2012, when the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2013 was $13.7 million, or 1.63% 
of outstanding loans, and 38.84% of non-performing loans compared to December 31, 2012, where the allowance for loan losses was $14.8 
million, or 1.75% of outstanding loans, and 37.70% of non-performing loans. As we evaluate our loan portfolio, we are seeing many positive 
trends including stabilization in our problem assets. A significant portion of our reserves is specifically allocated to loans of customers who 
are working through their financial problems.  

Net interest income for 2013 was $39.3 million compared to $41.2 million for 2012.  While the decrease continues to be the result of the 
historically  low  rate  environment  and  growing  competition  for  quality  loans,  our  net  interest  margin  has  remained  healthy.  On  a  tax 
equivalent basis, Hawthorn’s net interest margin for 2013 was 3.72% compared to 3.84% for 2012.  The lower net interest margin for 2013 
was primarily the result of reduced average earning assets and continued net interest margin contraction.  

Non-interest income for 2013 was $10.1 million compared to $9.7 million for 2012. The increase is primarily the result of a $1.3 million 
positive variance in real estate servicing income related to changes in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights and $0.8 million of gains 
realized on the sale of investment securities. These positive changes were partially offset by lower refinancing activity in our home mortgage 
area  which  impacted  both  the  volume  of  loans  sold  and  the  related  gains  recognized.    Non-interest  expense  for  2013  was  $40.8 million 
compared  to  $38.7  million  for  2012.  The  largest  contributor  to  the  increase  resulted  from  higher  expense  valuation  write-downs  on 
foreclosed assets.       

On May 15, 2013, Hawthorn Bancshares’ exited participation in the U.S. Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program (commonly called TARP) by 
repaying the outstanding $18.3 million debt.   Repayment of the TARP  funds reflected Hawthorn Bancshares’ financial strength as  it was 
made  without  borrowing  funds  or  raising  additional  capital.  Capital  levels  at  December  31,  2013  continue  to  exceed  regulatory  well 
capitalized thresholds at 8.80% leverage capital and 15.33% total risk-based capital. 

While 2013 was certainly better than 2012, I am still not satisfied with our performance.  We must continue to improve upon the 2013 0.43% 
return on average assets and 5.95% return on average common equity.  As an investor, director and executive officer, I am  committed to 
maintaining strong asset quality, improving earnings performance, sustaining sound and proper capital levels and paying regular dividends.   

With  the  increase  in  regulatory  requirements,  consolidation  in  the  financial  services  industry  may  present  expansion  opportunities.  
Hawthorn Bancshares’ future is bright and you should feel confident about your investment.  Your bankers are highly professional and  I 
respect their talents immensely.  On behalf of your Board and Management team, thank you for your continued trust and confidence. 

Sincerely, 

David T. Turner, 
Chairman  & Chief Executive Officer 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
A WORD CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS 

This report contains certain forward-looking statements with respect to the financial condition, results of  operations, plans, 
objectives,  future  performance  and  business  of  the  Company,  Hawthorn  Bancshares,  Inc.,  and  its  subsidiaries,  including, 
without limitation: 

� 
� 

statements that are not historical in nature, and 
statements  preceded  by,  followed  by  or  that  include  the  words  believes,  expects,  may,  will,  should,  could, 
anticipates, estimates, intends or similar expressions. 

Forward-looking  statements  are  not  guarantees  of  future  performance  or  results.    They  involve  risks,  uncertainties  and 
assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements due to, among 
others, the following factors: 

� 
� 
� 

� 

� 

� 

� 

competitive pressures among financial services companies may increase significantly, 
changes in the interest rate environment may reduce interest margins, 
general  economic  conditions,  either  nationally  or  in  Missouri,  may  be  less  favorable  than  expected  and  may 
adversely affect the quality of our loans and other assets, 
increases  in  non-performing  assets  in  the  Company’s  loan  portfolios  and  adverse  economic  conditions  may 
necessitate increases to our provisions for loan losses, 
costs  or  difficulties  related  to  the  integration  of  the  business  of  the  Company  and  its  acquisition  targets  may  be 
greater than expected, 
legislative or regulatory changes may adversely affect the business in which the Company and its subsidiaries are 
engaged, and 
changes may occur in the securities markets. 

The  Dodd-Frank  Wall  Street  Reform  and  Consumer  Protection  Act  of  2010,  or  the  Dodd-Frank  Act,  was  enacted  on 
July 21, 2010. Provisions of the Act address many issues including, but not limited to, capital, interchange fees, compliance 
and  risk  management,  debit  card  overdraft  fees,  the  establishment  of  a  new  consumer  regulator,  healthcare,  incentive 
compensation,  expanded  disclosures  and  corporate  governance.  While  many  of  the  new  regulations  under  the  Act  are 
expected  to  primarily  impact  financial  institutions  with  assets  greater  than  $10 billion,  the  Company  expects  these  new 
regulations could reduce revenues and increase expenses in the future. Management is currently assessing the impact of the 
Act and of the regulations anticipated to be promulgated under the Act. 

We have described under the caption Risk Factors in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended 
December  31,  2013, and  in  other  reports  filed  with  the  SEC  from  time  to  time,  additional  factors  that  could  cause  actual 
results to  be  materially  different from  those described  in the  forward-looking  statements.  Other  factors that have  not  been 
identified  in  this  report  could  also  have  this  effect.  You  are  cautioned  not  to  put  undue  reliance  on  any  forward-looking 
statement, which speak only as of the date they were made.

HAWTHORN BANCSHARES, INC. 
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF  
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 

Overview 

Through the branch network of its subsidiary bank, the Company, with $1.1 billion in assets at December 31, 2013, 
provides a broad range of commercial and personal banking services, including certificates of deposit, individual retirement 
and other time deposit accounts, checking and other demand deposit accounts, interest checking accounts, savings accounts, 
and money market accounts. The Company also provides a wide range of lending services, including real estate, commercial, 
installment,  and  other  consumer  loans.  Other  financial  services  that  the  Company  provides  include  automated  teller 
machines,  trust  services,  credit-related  insurance,  and  safe-deposit  boxes.  The  geographic  areas  in  which  the  Company 
provides  products  and  services  include  the  communities  in  and  surrounding  Jefferson  City,  Clinton,  Warsaw,  Springfield, 
Branson, and Lee's Summit, Missouri.   

The Company's primary source of revenue is net interest income derived primarily from lending and deposit taking 
activities. A secondary source  of revenue  is investment  income.  The  Company  also  derives  income  from  trust,  brokerage, 
credit card and mortgage banking activities and service charge income.  

Much of  the  Company's  business  is  commercial,  commercial real  estate  development,  and  mortgage  lending. The 
Company  has  experienced  soft  loan  demand  in  the  communities  within  which  we  operate  during  the  current  economic 
slowdown. The Company's income from mortgage brokerage activities is directly dependent on mortgage rates and the level 
of home purchases and refinancings.  

The success of the Company's growth strategy depends primarily on the ability of its banking subsidiary to generate 
an  increasing  level of  loans  and deposits  at acceptable  risk  levels  and  on acceptable  terms  without  significant  increases in 
non-interest  expenses  relative  to  revenues  generated.  The  Company's  financial  performance  also  depends,  in  part,  on  its 
ability  to  manage  various portfolios and  to  successfully  introduce  additional  financial  products  and  services  by  expanding 
new and existing customer relationships, utilizing improved technology, and enhancing customer satisfaction. Furthermore, 
the success  of  the  Company's  growth  strategy  depends  on  its  ability  to  maintain  sufficient  regulatory  capital  levels  during 
periods in which general economic conditions are unfavorable and despite economic conditions being beyond its control. 

The  Company’s  subsidiary  bank,  Hawthorn  Bank  (Bank),  is  a  full-service  bank  conducting  a  general  banking 
business, offering its customers checking and savings accounts, debit cards, certificates of deposit, safety deposit boxes and a 
wide  range  of  lending  services,  including  commercial  and  industrial  loans,  residential  real  estate  loans,  single  payment 
personal loans, installment loans and credit card accounts. In addition, the Bank provides trust services.  

The  deposit  accounts  of the  Bank are  insured by the  Federal  Deposit  Insurance  Corporation (FDIC)  to  the extent 
provided by law. The operations of the Bank are supervised and regulated by the FDIC and the Missouri Division of Finance. 
Periodic examinations of the Bank are conducted by representatives of the FDIC and the Missouri Division of Finance. Such 
regulations,  supervision  and  examinations  are  principally  for  the  benefit  of  depositors,  rather  than  for  the  benefit  of 
shareholders.  The  Company  is  subject  to  supervision  and  examination  by  the  by  the  Board  of  Governors  of  the  Federal 
Reserve System.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

The  following  accounting  policies  are  considered  most  critical  to  the  understanding  of  the  Company’s  financial 
condition  and results  of  operations.  These critical accounting  policies require  management’s  most  difficult,  subjective  and 
complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. Because these estimates and judgments are based on current 
circumstances, they may change over time or prove to be inaccurate based on actual experiences. In the event that different 
assumptions or conditions were to prevail, and depending upon the severity of such changes, the possibility  of a materially 
different financial condition and/or results of operations could reasonably be expected. The impact and any associated risks 
related  to  the  Company’s  critical  accounting  policies  on  its  business  operations  are  discussed  throughout  Management’s 
Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial  Condition  and  Results  of  Operations,  where  such  policies  affect  the  reported  and 
expected financial results.    

Allowance for Loan Losses 

Management  has  identified  the  accounting  policy  related  to  the  allowance  for  loan  losses  as  critical  to  the 
understanding  of  the  Company's  results of  operations,  since  the application  of  this  policy  requires  significant management 
assumptions  and  estimates  that  could  result  in  materially  different  amounts  to  be  reported  if  conditions  or  underlying 
circumstances were to change. Further discussion of the methodology used in establishing the allowance and the impact of 
any associated risks related to these policies on the Company’s business operations is provided in Note 1 to the Company’s 
consolidated financial statements and is also discussed in the Lending and Credit Management section below. Many  of the 
loans  are  deemed  collateral dependent  for  purposes  of  the  measurement  of  the  impairment  loss,  thus  the  fair  value  of the 
underlying collateral and sensitivity of such fair values due to changing market conditions, supply and demand, condition of 
the  collateral  and  other  factors  can  be  volatile  over  periods  of  time.  Such  volatility  can  have  an  impact  on  the  financial 
performance of the Company.    

Income Taxes 

Income  taxes  are  accounted  for  under  the  asset  /  liability  method  by  recognizing  the  amount  of  taxes  payable  or 
refundable for the current period and deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences of events that have been 
recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. Judgment is required in addressing the Company’s  future 
tax  consequences  of  events  that  have  been  recognized  in  the  consolidated  financial  statements  or  tax  returns  such  as 
realization of the effects of temporary differences, net operating loss carry forwards and changes in tax laws or interpretations 
thereof.  A  valuation  allowance  is  established  when  in  the  judgment  of  management,  it  is  more  likely  than  not  that  such 
deferred tax assets will not become realizable. In this case, the Company would adjust the recorded value of the deferred tax 
asset,  which  would  result  in  a direct  charge  to  income  tax  expense  and  earnings  in  the  period  that  the  determination  was 
made. Likewise, the Company  would reverse the valuation allowance when it is expected to realize the deferred tax asset. 
Critical  to  the  assessment  is  the  Company’s  estimates  and  judgments  related  to  future  taxable  income  which  is  based  on 
historical financial performance and assumptions related to the forecasts of future performance. In addition, the Company is 
subject  to the  continuous  examination  of its  tax returns  by  the  Internal  Revenue  Service  and  other taxing  authorities.  The 
Company  accrues  for  penalties  and  interest related to  income  taxes  in  income  tax  expense.  As  of  December  31, 2013,  the 
Company  has  not recognized  any  tax  liabilities  or  any  interest  or  penalties  in  income  tax  expense  related  to  uncertain  tax 
positions. 

Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets 

Other  real  estate  owned  and  repossessed  assets  consist  of  loan  collateral  that  has  been  repossessed  through 
foreclosure.  This  collateral  is  comprised  of  commercial  and  residential  real  estate  and  other  non-real  estate  property, 
including  autos,  manufactured homes,  and construction  equipment.  Other real  estate  owned  assets  are  initially recorded as 
held for sale at the fair value of the collateral less estimated selling costs. Any adjustment is recorded as a charge-off against 
the allowance for loan losses. The Company relies on external appraisals and assessment of property values by internal staff. 
In the case of non-real estate collateral, reliance is placed on a variety of sources, including external estimates of value and 
judgment  based  on  experience  and  expertise  of  internal  specialists.  Subsequent  to  foreclosure,  valuations  are  updated 
periodically, and the assets may be written down to reflect a new cost basis. The write-downs are recorded as other real estate 
expense, net. The Company establishes a valuation allowance related to other real estate owned on an asset-by-asset basis. 
The valuation allowance is created during the holding period when the fair value less cost to sell is lower than the cost of the 
property.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ANALYSIS 

The Company has prepared all of the consolidated financial information in this report in accordance with accounting 
principles  generally  accepted  in  the  United  States  of  America  (U.S.  GAAP).  In  preparing  the  consolidated  financial 
statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of 
assets and  liabilities,  disclosure  of  contingent  assets  and  liabilities  at  the  date  of  the  financial  statements,  and  the reported 
amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. There can be no assurances that actual results will not differ 
from those estimates.

Business  Events  On  December  19,  2008,  the  Company  announced  its  participation  in  the  U.S.  Treasury 
Department’s  Capital  Purchase  Program  (CPP),  a  voluntary  program  that  provides  capital  to  financially  healthy  banks. 
Participation in this program included the Company’s issuance of 30,255 shares of senior preferred stock (with a par value of 
$1,000 per share) and a ten year warrant to purchase approximately 287,133 shares of common stock. On May 9, 2012, the 
Company redeemed 12,000 of the 30,255 shares of preferred stock issued under the U.S. Treasury’s CPP program, and on 
May 15, 2013, the remaining 18,255 shares were redeemed. 

On  June  11,  2013  the  common  stock  warrant  issued  under  the  U.S  Treasury  Department’s  CPP  program  was 
repurchased by the Company pursuant to a letter agreement between the Treasury and the Company  for a total repurchase 
price of  $540,000, or  $1.88  per  warrant share.  The repurchase  price  was  based  on  the  fair market  value  of  the  warrant  as 
agreed upon by the Company and the Treasury. The repurchase of the warrant ends the Company’s participation in the U.S 
Treasury Department’s CPP.  

For the fifth consecutive year, on July 1, 2013, the Company distributed a four percent stock dividend to common 
shareholders of record at the close of business on June 15, 2013. For all periods presented, share information, including basic 
and diluted earnings per share, has been adjusted retroactively to reflect the stock dividend.  

Consolidated net income of $5.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 increased $2.2 million compared to 
a  consolidated  net  income  of  $2.8  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2012.  Net  income  available  to  common 
shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $4.4 million, or $0.87 per diluted common share, compared to net 
income available to common shareholders of $1.0 million, or $0.21 per diluted common share for the year ended December 
31, 2012. For the  year ended December 31, 2013, the return on average assets  was 0.43%, the return on average common 
stockholders’  equity  was  5.95%,  and  the  efficiency  ratio  was  81.22%.  The  lower  level  of  dividends  and  accretion  on 
preferred  stock  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2013  resulted  from  the  Company’s  redemption  of  the  remaining  18,255 
shares of preferred stock issued under the U.S. Treasury’s CPP program on May 15, 2013. 

For the year ended December 31, 2012, consolidated net income was $2.8 million compared to $2.9 million for the 
year ended December 31, 2011. For the year ended December 31, 2012, net income available to common shareholders was 
$1.0 million, or $0.21 per diluted common share, compared to net income available to common shareholders of $868,000 or 
$0.17 per diluted common share, for the year ended December 31, 2011. On May 9, 2012, the Company redeemed 12,000 of 
the 30,255 shares of preferred stock issued und the U.S. Treasury’s CPP program. Related to these shares was an additional 
$300,000 of accretion that was recognized at the time of the redemption. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the return

on average assets was 0.24%, the return on average common stockholders’ equity  was 1.40%, and the efficiency ratio was 
75.91%. 

Net  interest  income  decreased  4.6%  to  $39.3  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2013  compared  to  $41.2 
million for the year ended December 31, 2012. For the year ended December 31, 2012, net interest income decreased 3.3% to 
$41.2 million compared to $42.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. These decreases were primarily due to lower 
average earning asset levels and continued contraction of the net interest margin resulting from the prolonged low interest 
rate environment. The net interest margin decreased to 3.72% for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to 3.84% and 
3.92% for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. 

The lower provision for loan losses for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the years ended December 
31,  2012  and  2011,  respectively,  was  primarily  a  result  of  the  improving  credit  quality  in  the  Company’s  historical  loss 
analysis  and  reduced  levels  of  nonperforming  loans.  Net  charge-offs  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2013,  were  $3.2 
million, or 0.38% of average loans compared to $7.9 million, or 0.93% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 
2012,  and  $12.3  million,  or  1.42%  of  average  loans  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2011.  Non-performing  assets  were 
4.40% of total assets at December 31, 2013 compared to 5.33% at December 31, 2012, and 5.95% at December 31, 2011. 

Non-interest income increased $1.1 million, or 11.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year 
ended December 31, 2012, and increased $526,000, or 5.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to the year 
ended December 31, 2011. These changes are discussed in greater detail below under Non-interest Income.  

Non-interest expense increased $2.1 million, or 5.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year 
ended December 31, 2012, and increased $1.8 million, or 4.9%, for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to the year 
ended December 31, 2011. These increases are discussed in greater detail below under Non-interest Expense.  

Average Balance Sheets 

Net interest income  is the  largest  source  of  revenue resulting  from  the Company’s  lending,  investing,  borrowing, 
and deposit gathering activities. It is affected  by  both changes in the level of interest rates and changes in the amounts and 
mix of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. The following table presents average balance sheets, net interest 
income,  average  yields  of  earning  assets,  average  costs  of  interest  bearing  liabilities,  net  interest  spread  and  net  interest 
margin on a fully taxable equivalent basis for each of the years in the three year periods ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 
2011, respectively.

Interest income and  yields are presented  on a  fully taxable  equivalent basis using the Federal statutory income tax rate of 34%,  net of nondeductible 
interest expense. Such adjustments totaled $512,000, $550,000 and $610,000 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

(8)  Fees and costs on loans are included in interest income. 

Financial  results  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2013  compared  to  the  year  ended  December  31,  2012,  and 
December  31,  2012  compared to  the  year  ended  December  31,  2011  reflected  a  decrease  in  net  interest  income,  on  a  tax 
equivalent basis, of $1.9 million, or 4.6%, and $1.5 million, or 3.4%, respectively. The decreases in net interest income are 
primarily due to lower average earning asset levels and continued contraction of the net interest margin resulting from the 
prolonged  low  interest  rate  environment.  Measured  as  a  percentage  of  average  earning  assets,  the  net  interest  margin 
(expressed  on  a  fully  taxable  equivalent  basis)  decreased  to  3.72%  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2013,  compared  to 
3.84% and 3.92% for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

respectively.  The  Company’s  rates  earned  on  interest  earning  assets  were  4.31%  the  year  ended  December  31,  2013 
compared to 4.57% and 4.91% for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. 

Interest  income  on  loans  decreased  to  $41.2  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2013  compared  to  $44.1 

million and $47.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  

Average loans outstanding decreased $9.5 million, or 1.1%, to $833.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 
compared to $843.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The average yield on loans receivable decreased to 4.94% 
during the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to 5.23% for the year ended December 31, 2012 primarily as a result of 
decreasing market interest rates.  

Average  loans  outstanding  decreased  $22.2  million,  or  2.6%,  to  $843.0 million  for the  year  ended  December  31, 
2012 compared to $865.2 million for the year December 31, 2011. The average yield  on loans decreased to 5.23% for the 
year  ended  December  31,  2012  compared  to  5.49%  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2011.  See  the  Lending  and  Credit 
Management section for further discussion of changes in the composition of the lending portfolio. 

Total interest expense decreased to $6.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, respectively, compared to 
$7.9 million and $10.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company’s rates paid on 
interest bearing liabilities  was  0.71%  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2013  compared to  0.87% and  1.16%  for  the years 
ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. On January 1, 2012, the Company recorded a $368,000 credit to interest 
expense on time deposits for imputed capitalized interest not accounted for during the time period of 2004 through 2011 on 
the construction of the Company’s new bank buildings. This is considered a correction of an immaterial prior period error. 
Without this credit to interest expense, rates paid on interest bearing liabilities would have been approximately 0.92% for the 
year ended December 31, 2012.  See the Liquidity Management section for further discussion. 

Interest  expense  on  deposits  decreased  to  $4.6  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2013  compared  to  $6.0 

million and $8.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

compared to $807.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The average cost of deposits decreased to 0.58% during 
the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to 0.74% for the year ended December 31, 2012 primarily as a result of lower 
market  interest  rates,  and  approximately  $23.0  million  from  a  58  month  6.05%  certificate  of  deposit  special  that matured 
during the third quarter of 2013.    

Average  time  deposits  decreased $4.7 million,  or  0.6%, to  $807.9  million for  the  year  ended  December 31, 2012 
compared  to  $812.6 million  for  the  year  ended December  31,  2011. The  cost  of  deposits  decreased  to  0.74%  for  the year

Total  non-interest  income  increased  $1.1  million,  or  11.7%,  to  $10.9  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31, 
2013 compared to $9.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, and increased $526,000, or 5.7%, to $9.7 million for 
the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to $9.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. On January 1, 2012, the 
Company  opted  to  measure  mortgage  servicing  rights  (MSRs)  at  fair  value  as  permitted  by  Accounting  Standards 
Codification  (ASC)  Topic  860-50  Accounting  for  Servicing  Financial  Assets.  The  election  of  this  option  resulted  in  the 
recognition  of  a  cumulative  effect  of  change  in  accounting  principle  of  $459,890,  which  was  recorded  as  an  increase  to 
beginning  retained  earnings,  as  further  described  in  Note  6  to  the  consolidated  financial  statements.  As  such,  effective 
January 1, 2012, the change in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights is recognized in net real estate servicing fees in 
non-interest income for the period in which the change occurs.  

Real estate servicing fees, net increased $1.3 million to $876,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared 
to  the  year  ended  December  31,  2012,  and  decreased  $508,000  to  $(453,000)  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2012 
compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. Net real estate servicing fees include mortgage loan servicing fees and the 
gains or losses due to the change in fair value of MSRs arising from inputs and assumptions. Mortgage loan servicing fees 
earned on loans sold were $901,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $878,000 and $863,000 for the years 
ended 2012 and 2011, respectively. Total net losses recognized related to MSRs due to the change in fair value were $25,000 
for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to total net losses of $1.3 million for the year ended 2012. The net losses 
recognized  related  to  MSRs  in  2012 included a one  time  adjustment  of  $538,000  correction  of  an  immaterial  prior  period 
error  due  to  changing  from  the  straight-line  amortization method  to  an  accelerated  amortization method  of  accounting  for 
amortizing MSRs in prior years. During the  year ended December 31, 2011, $808,000 of amortization was included in net 
real estate servicing fees. The Company was servicing $322.5 million of mortgage loans at December 31, 2013 compared to 
$310.6 million and $307.0 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  

Gain  on  sales  of  mortgage  loans  decreased  $1.0  million  to  $1.7  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2013 
compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, and increased $1.0 million to $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 
2012  compared  to  the  year  ended  December  31,  2011.  The  Company  sold  loans  of  $76.0  million  for  the  year  ended 
December  31,  2013  compared  to  $97.1  million  and  $75.0  million  for  the  years  ended  2012  and  2011,  respectively. 
Refinancing activity impacting both the volume of loans sold and gains recognized began to slow down during 2013 due to 
rising interest rates.  During 2013,  the Company  increased  its repurchase  reserve  liability  by  $160,000  for  estimated  losses 
incurred on sold loans that is included in total gain on sales of mortgage loans.  

Gain  on  sale  of  investment  securities  During  the  year  ended  December  31,  2013,  the  Company  received  $32.6 
million  from  proceeds  on  sales  of  available-for-sale  debt  securities  and  recognized  gains  of  $778,000.  These  transactions 
were  the  result  of  bond  sales  and  purchases  to  replace  several  smaller  holdings  with  fewer,  larger  investments  without 
materially changing the duration or yield of the investment portfolio.

Total non-interest expense increased $2.1 million, or 5.4%, to $40.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 
compared to the  year  ended  December 31, 2012 and  increased  $1.8  million,  or  4.9%,  to  $38.7  million  for  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011.  

Employee benefits increased $44,000, or 0.9%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended 
December 31, 2012, and increased $574,000, or 13.6%, for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended 
December  31,  2011.  The  increase  in  2013  over  2012  primarily  resulted  from  a  $143,000  increase  in  medical  insurance 
premiums,  partially  offset  by  a  $98,000  decrease  in  other  employee  benefits.  The  increase  in  2012  over  2011  primarily 
resulted  from  a  $382,000  increase  in  estimated  profit  sharing  and  pension  expense  accruals,  a  $68,000  increase  in  other 
employee benefits due to expenses incurred hiring new executive management, and a $95,000 increase in medical insurance 
premiums. 

Federal  Deposit  Insurance  Corporation  (FDIC)  insurance assessment  decreased  $1,000, or  0.1%,  for the  year 
ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, and decreased $114,000, or 10.3%, for the year 
ended  December  31,  2012  compared  to  the  year  ended  December  31,  2011.  The  decrease  in  2012  over  2011  was  due  to 
amendments  made  by  the  FDIC  effective  for  the  third  quarter  of  2011  to  implement  revisions  to  the  Federal  Deposit 
Insurance Act made by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The years ending after September 
30, 2011 reflect a new assessment base using assets and tier one capital in the assessment calculation. 

Legal, examination, and professional fees decreased $207,000, or 17.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 
compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, and decreased $143,000, or 10.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2012 
compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in 2013 over 2012 primarily consisted of a $121,000 decrease 
in legal fees, a $37,000 decrease in consulting fees, and a $48,000 decrease in audit fees. The decrease in 2012 over 2011 
primarily consisted of a $140,000 decrease in consulting fees for a human resource best practices and profitability-consulting 
project completed during 2011. The decrease in legal fees in 2013 over the comparable periods 2012 and 2011, was primarily 
a result of a decrease in litigation fees related to two legal suits incurred during 2012. The decrease in 2013 auditing fees was 
primarily due to nonrecurring fees incurred in 2012 for tax and fair value analysis.     

Advertising and promotion increased $218,000, or 20.1%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the 
year ended December 31, 2012, and decreased $20,000, or 1.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year 
ended December 31,  2011. The  increase in 2013  over  the years  ended  December  31,  2012 and 2011  was  primarily due  to 
additional advertising projects  and payment  for  several  sponsorships  and  promotional  items  that  were  not  incurred  during 
2012 and 2011.

Processing expense decreased $50,000, or 1.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended 
December 31, 2012, and increased $400,000, or 12.5% for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended 
December 31, 2011. The decrease in 2013 over 2012 was primarily due to contract savings resulting in lower core processing 
expenses. In 2013 a one time consulting fee was incurred to negotiate reduced future core processing expenses. A portion of 
this fee is being amortized over the new contract period with the Company’s core processing vendor. The increase in 2012 
over 2011 primarily resulted from a one time reclassification of ATM and debit card income that was previously offset by the 
related expenses. 

Other real estate (ORE) expense increased $2.3 million, or 85.2%, to $4.9 million for the year ended December 
31,  2013  compared  to  the  year  ended  December  31,  2012,  and  increased  $100,000,  or  3.9%,  to  $2.7  million  for  the  year 
ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The expense provision for valuation write-downs 
taken on ORE was $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $713,000 and $1.3 million for the years 
ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The significant increase in the expense provision during 2013 primarily 
related  to  two  hotels  located  in  the  Branson  area  that  were  sold  at  auction  during  the  second  quarter  of  2013.  Expenses 
incurred to maintain foreclosed properties were $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $2.3 million 
and $1.3 million for the years ended 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company began to see a decrease in overall operating 
costs during the third quarter of 2013 due to the sale of the hotels.  

Other non-interest expense decreased $771,000, or 17.5%, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the 
year ended December 31, 2012, and increased $712,000, or 19.3%, for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the 
year  ended  December  31,  2011.  The  decrease  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2013  was  primarily  due  to  a  $273,000 
decrease  in  CDI  amortization,  a  $235,000  decrease  in  repossessed  asset  and  loan  expense,  and  a  $326,000  decrease  in 
donations  due to  property  that  was  donated during  2012.  Impairment  write-downs  taken  on  mining  equipment and  classic 
cars, included in repossessed asset and loan expenses, were $189,000 in 2013 compared to $330,000 in 2012. The increase 
for the year ended December 31, 2012 over 2011 was primarily due to two property donations totaling $309,000 to charitable 
organizations during 2012 that were both in other real estate owned, and $330,000 impairment write-downs on repossessed 
assets taken in of 2012. 

Comparing fourth quarter 2013 to third quarter 2013 

Consolidated net income available to common shareholders’ increased to $1.7 million for the fourth quarter 2013 
compared to $1.6 million for the third quarter 2013.  Net interest income, on a tax equivalent basis, remained consistent at 
$10.0 million for both the fourth and third quarters of 2013 with $1.0 billion in average interest earning assets.  

The  lower  provision  for  loan  losses  for  both  the  fourth  and  third  quarter  of  2013  was  primarily  a  result  of  the 
improving credit quality in the Company’s historical loss analysis and reduced level of nonperforming loans. Net charge-offs 
for the fourth quarter 2013 were $564,000, or 0.07% of average loans, compared to $1.1 million, or 0.17% of average loans 
for the third quarter 2013.  

Non-interest income decreased to $2.3 million for the fourth quarter 2013 compared to $2.5 million for the third 
quarter of 2013. This decrease included a $120,000 decrease in service charge income, a $222,000 decrease in net real estate 
servicing income, partially offset by $224,000 increase in gains on sale of investment securities. Mortgage loan servicing fees 
earned on loans sold were $227,000 for the fourth quarter 2013 compared to $215,000 for the third quarter 2013. Total gains 
or losses recognized due to the change in fair value of MSRs arising from inputs and assumptions were ($111,000) for the 
fourth quarter 2013 compared to $123,000 for the third quarter 2013.   

 Non-interest  expense  decreased  to  $9.6  million  for  fourth  quarter  2013  compared  to  $10.0  million  for  the  third 
quarter 2013. This decrease primarily resulted from a $778,000 decrease in other real estate expenses from $1.3 million for 
the third quarter 2013 compared to $487,000 for the fourth quarter 2013. The provision for the valuation allowance for other 
real estate owned was $847,000 for the third quarter 2013 compared to $336,000 for the fourth quarter 2013. 

Comparing fourth quarter 2013 to fourth quarter 2012 

Consolidated net income available to common shareholders’ decreased to $1.7 million for the fourth quarter 2013 
compared to $1.9 million for the fourth 2012. Net interest income, on a tax equivalent basis, decreased to $10.0 million from 
$10.2 million over the same period. This decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in average interest earning assets 
from $1.1 billion for the fourth quarter ended 2012 to $1.0 billion for the fourth quarter ended 2013. 

The provision for loan losses was $30,000 for fourth quarter 2013 compared to $1.0 million for the fourth quarter 
2012, and was primarily a result of the improving credit quality in the Company’s historical loss analysis and reduced level 
of nonperforming loans. Net charge-offs for the fourth quarter 2013 were $564,000, or 0.07% of average loans, compared to 
$3.1 million, or 0.36% of average loans for the fourth quarter 2012.

 Non-interest income decreased to $2.3 million for fourth quarter 2013 compared to $2.6 million for fourth quarter 
of 2012. This decrease included a $746,000 decrease in the net gain on sales of mortgage loans, partially offset by a $220,000 
increase in net real estate servicing income, and $224,000 increase in gains on sale of investment securities. The Company’s 
loans  sold  were  $11.0  million  for  the  fourth  quarter  2013  compared  to  $30.1  million  fourth  quarter  2012.  Mortgage  loan 
servicing fees earned on loans sold were $227,000 for the fourth quarter 2013 compared to $241,000 for the fourth quarter 
2012.  Total  net  losses  recognized  due  to  the  change  in  fair  value  of  MSRs  arising  from  inputs  and  assumptions  were 
$111,000 for the fourth quarter 2013 compared to $345,000 for the fourth quarter 2012.    

Non-interest expense increased to $9.6 million for fourth quarter 2013 compared to $8.7 million for fourth quarter 
2012. This increase primarily resulted from a $1.0 million increase in other real estate expenses partially offset by a $422,000 
decrease in other non-interest expenses. The provision for the valuation allowance for other real estate owned was $336,000 
for the  fourth  quarter  2013, and  in the  fourth quarter 2012,  a net  $1.1  million  of  the  valuation allowance  was  released.  A 
current  appraisal  supported  a  partial  recovery  of  $3.9  million  of  a  $5.7  million  provision  on  a  commercial  real  estate 
construction property taken in 2010.  The decrease in other non-interest expense resulted from impairment write-downs taken 
on mining equipment and classic cars of $330,000 in the fourth quarter 2012 compared to a recovery of $50,000 received in 
the fourth quarter 2013. 

Income taxes 

Income taxes as a percentage of earnings before income taxes as reported in the consolidated financial statements were 
32.8% for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to 16.2% and 17.2% for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 
2011, respectively. Excluding an immaterial correction of a prior period error of $371,000, income taxes as a percentage of 
earnings before  income  taxes  would  have  been 26.3%  for  the  year ended  December  31,  2012.  At  December  31,  2011, the 
Company  released  $28,000  of  interest  accrued related to  the  release  of  $221,000  of  provisions  for  uncertain tax  positions. 
The Company had not recognized any tax liabilities or any interest or penalties in income tax expense related to uncertain tax 
positions as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.

The  Company  generally  does not  retain  long-term  fixed  rate  residential  mortgage  loans  in  its  portfolio.  Fixed  rate 
loans conforming to standards required by the secondary market are offered to qualified borrowers, but are not funded until the 
Company has a non-recourse purchase commitment from the secondary market at a predetermined price. For the year ended 
December 31, 2013, the Company sold approximately $76.0 million of loans to investors compared to $99.8 million for the 
year December 31, 2012. At December 31, 2013, the Company was servicing approximately $322.5 million of loans sold to 
the secondary market compared to $310.6 million at December 31, 2012, and $307.0 million at December 31, 2011. 

Risk Elements of the Loan Portfolio 

Management,  the  senior  loan  committee,  and  internal  loan  review,  formally  review  all  loans  in  excess  of  certain 
dollar  amounts  (periodically  established)  at  least  annually.  Currently,  loans  in  excess  of  $2.0  million  in  aggregate  and  all 
adversely  classified  credits  identified  by  management  are  reviewed.  In  addition,  all  other  loans  are  reviewed  on  a  sample 
basis. The senior loan committee reviews and reports to the board of directors, on a monthly basis, past due, classified, and 
watch list loans in order to classify or reclassify loans as loans requiring attention, substandard, doubtful, or loss. During this 
review,  management  also  determines  which  loans  should  be  considered  impaired.  Management  follows  the  guidance 
provided in the FASB’s ASC Topic 310, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, in identifying and measuring 
loan impairment. If management determines that it is probable that all amounts due on a loan will not be collected under the 
original  terms  of  the  loan  agreement,  the  loan  is  considered  to  be  impaired.  These  loans  are  evaluated  individually  for 
impairment,  and  in  conjunction  with  current  economic  conditions  and  loss  experience,  specific  reserves  are  estimated  as 
further  discussed  below.  Loans  not  individually  evaluated  are  aggregated  and  reserves  are  recorded  using  a  consistent 
methodology  that  considers historical loan  loss  experience  by  loan  type,  delinquencies,  current  economic  conditions,  loan 
risk  ratings  and  industry  concentration.  Management  believes,  but  there  can  be  no  assurance,  that  these  procedures  keep 
management informed of potential problem loans. Based upon these procedures, both the allowance and provision for loan 
losses are adjusted to maintain the allowance at a level considered necessary by management to provide for probable losses 
inherent in the loan portfolio.

Total nonperforming assets decreased $12.8 million, or 20.2%, from December 30, 2012 to December 31, 2013. As 
detailed below, this decrease includes a decrease of $8.7 million, or 37.0%, due to sales and impairment write-downs of other 
real estate owned and repossessed assets and a $7.4 million, or 23.8%, decrease in nonaccrual loans, partially offset by a $3.0 
million increase, or 37.6%, in accruing troubled debt restructurings (TDRs). 

Nonperforming loans, defined as loans on nonaccrual status, loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing, and 
TDRs  totaled $35.3 million, or 4.21%,  of  total  loans at  December  31,  2013  compared  to  $39.4  million,  or  4.65%,  of  total 
loans at December 31, 2012.  

It is the Company's policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income on loans when management believes that the 
borrower’s financial condition, after consideration of business conditions and collection efforts, is such that the collection of 
interest is doubtful, or upon which principal or interest due has been in default for a period of 90 days or more and the asset is 
not both well secured and in the process of collection. Subsequent interest payments received  on such loans are applied to 
principal if any doubt exists as to the collectability of such principal; otherwise, such receipts are recorded as interest income 
on  a  cash basis. Interest on nonaccrual loans,  which  would  have  been  recorded  under  the  original terms  of  the  loans, was 
approximately $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, and $1.9 million for the year ended December 
31, 2011.  

As of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, approximately $21.0 million and $17.6 million, respectively, of 
loans  classified  as  substandard,  not  included  in  the  nonperforming  asset  table,  were  identified  as  potential  problem  loans 
having more than normal risk which raised doubts as to the ability  of the borrower to comply  with present loan repayment 
terms.  Even  though  borrowers  are  experiencing  moderate  cash  flow  problems  as  well  as  some  deterioration  in  collateral 
value, management believes the general allowance was sufficient to cover the risks and probable losses related to such loans 
at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. 

Total non-accrual loans  at December 31, 2013 decreased  $7.4 million  to  $23.7  million  from  December 31, 2012. 
This  decrease  primarily  consisted  of  a  $6.0  million  decrease  in  real  estate  mortgage  non-accrual  loans  and a  $1.8  million 
decrease in real estate construction loans. This decrease was partially offset by a $349,000 increase in commercial, financial, 

17 

 
 
 
and agricultural loans. At December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, real estate mortgage – commercial non-accrual loans 
made up 38% of total non-accrual loans. 

Loans  past  due  90  days  and  still  accruing  interest  at  December  31,  2013  increased  $237,000  to  $243,000  from 
December 31, 2012. Other real estate owned and repossessed assets at December 31, 2013 decreased $8.7 million to $14.9 
million  from  December  31,  2012  primarily  due  to  the  sale  of  two  hotels  located  in  the  Branson  area  and  land  held  in 
foreclosed  property  in  the  Company’s  real-estate  subsidiary.  During  the  year  ended  December  31,  2013,  $4.6  million  of 
nonaccrual loans, net of charge-offs taken, moved to other real estate owned and repossessed assets, and a net $3.4 million 
additional  provision  to  the  valuation  allowance  was  recorded  to  reflect  current  fair  values  compared  to  a  net  $713,000 
provision during the year ended December 31, 2012.

At December 31, 2013, loans classified as TDRs totaled $21.5 million, of which $10.1 million were on non-accrual 
status and $11.4 million were on accrual status. At December 31, 2012, loans classified as TDRs totaled $22.4 million, of 
which $14.1 million were on non-accrual status and $8.3 million were on accrual status. The net decrease in total TDRs from 
December 31, 2012  was  primarily  due  to  $1.0  million  charged off,  and approximately  $2.9  million  of  payments received, 
partially  offset  by  $3.6  million  additions  to  TDRs  during  2013.  The  increase  in  TDRs  classified  as  real  estate  mortgage 
accruing loans primarily relates to two new loan relationships modified to interest only payments. The decrease in real estate 
construction and real estate mortgage non-accrual TDRs is primarily related to property sales and one loan relationship that 
went to accruing TDR status.   

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses 

As  mentioned above,  the  Company  is  continuing to  recover  from  the  deterioration  of  collateral  values  during the 
prior and current economic conditions. Current appraisals are being obtained and management has adjusted the provision to 
reflect  the  amounts  determined necessary to  maintain the  allowance  for  loan  losses  at  a  level  necessary  to  cover  probable 
losses in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses was $13.7 million, or 1.63%, of loans outstanding at December 31, 
2013 compared to $14.8 million, or 1.75%, of loans outstanding at December 31, 2012, and $13.8 million, or 1.64%, of loans 
outstanding at December 31, 2011.

The Company’s net loan charge-offs were $3.2 million, or 0.38% of average loans, for the year ended December 31, 
2013 compared to net loan charge-offs  of $7.9 million, or 0.93% of average loans, for the year ended December 31, 2012, 
and $12.3 million, or 1.42% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2011.  

Commercial,  financial,  and  agricultural  net  charge-offs  represented  18%  of  total  net  charge-offs  during  the  year 
ended  December  31,  2013  compared  to  20% and  16%  of  net  charge-offs  during  the  years  ended  December  31,  2012  and 
2011, respectively. Real estate mortgage – residential net charge-offs represented 22% of total net charge-offs during the year 
ended December 31, 2013 compared to 10% and 14% of total net charge-offs during the years ended December 31, 2012, and 
2011, respectively. Real estate mortgage - commercial net charge-offs represented to 30% of total net charge-offs during the 
year ended December 31, 2013 compared to 66% and 51% of total net charge-offs during the years ended December 31, 2012 
and 2011, respectively. 

Provision 

The provision for loan losses decreased to $2.0 million for the  year ended December 31, 2013, compared to $8.9 
million and $11.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Due to decreases in historical loss 
rates based on the Company’s last thirty-six months of charge-off experience, decreases in average loans and reduced levels 
of nonperforming loans, the Company’s required provision during the year decreased.

The  Company’s  allowance  for  loan  losses  decreased  to  $13.7  million  at  December  31,  2013  compared  to  $14.8 
million at December 31, 2012. The decrease from December 31, 2012 primarily consisted of a $1.0 million decrease in the 
allocation for real estate construction – commercial loans, $428,000 decrease in real estate mortgage - residential loans, and a 
$311,000  decrease  in  real  estate  mortgage  –  commercial  loans,  partially  offset  by  a  $437,000  increase  in  commercial, 
financial,  and  agricultural  loans,  and  a  $199,000  increase  in  real  estate  construction  –  residential  loans.  The  ratio  of  the 
allowance  for  loan  losses to  nonperforming loans  was  38.8%  at  December  31, 2013,  compared to  37.7%  at  December  31,

The  specific  reserve  component applies  to  loans  evaluated individually  for  impairment.  The net  carrying  value  of 
impaired  loans  is  generally  based  on  the  fair  values  of  collateral  obtained  through  independent  appraisals  and/or  internal 
evaluations,  or  by  discounting  the  total  expected  future  cash  flows.  Once  the  impairment  amount  is  calculated,  a  specific 
reserve allocation is recorded. At December 31, 2013, $4.8 million of the Company’s allowance for loan losses was allocated 
to impaired loans totaling approximately $35.1 million compared to $4.0 million of the Company's allowance for loan losses 
allocated to impaired loans totaling approximately $39.4 million at December 31, 2012. Management determined that $18.8 
million, or 54%, of total impaired loans required no reserve allocation at December 31, 2013 compared to $14.7 million, or 
37%, at December 31, 2012 primarily due to adequate collateral values, acceptable payment history and adequate cash flow 
ability. 

The incurred loss component of the general reserve, or loans collectively evaluated for impairment, is determined by 
applying percentages to pools of loans by asset type. Loans not individually evaluated are aggregated based on similar risk 
characteristics.  Historical loss  rates  for  each risk  group,  which  is  updated  quarterly,  are  quantified  using  all recorded  loan 
charge-offs.  Management  determined  that  the  previous  twelve  quarters  were  reflective  of  the  loss  characteristics  of  the 
Company’s loan portfolio during the recent economic environment. These historical loss rates for each risk group are used as 
the starting point to determine allowance provisions. The Company’s methodology includes factors that allow management to 
adjust  its  estimates  of  losses  based  on  the  most  recent  information  available.  The rates  are  then  adjusted  to  reflect  actual 
changes and anticipated changes such as changes in specific allowances on loans and real estate acquired through foreclosure, 
any gains and losses on final disposition of real estate acquired through foreclosure, changes in national and local economic 
conditions  and  developments,  including  general  economic  and  business  conditions  affecting  the  Company’s  key  lending 
areas, credit quality trends, specific industry conditions within portfolio segments, bank regulatory examination results, and 
findings  of  the  internal  loan  review  department.  These  risk  factors  are  generally  reviewed  and  updated  quarterly,  as 
appropriate.  

The specific and general reserve allocations represent management’s best estimate of probable losses contained in 
the loan portfolio at the evaluation date. Although the allowance for loan losses comprises of specific and general allocations, 
the entire allowance is available to absorb any credit losses. 

Investment Portfolio 

The Company classifies its debt and equity securities into one of the following two categories: 

Held-to-Maturity  - includes  investments  in debt  securities  that  the  Company  has  the  positive  intent and  ability to 
hold until maturity. Available-for-Sale - includes investments in debt and equity securities not classified as held to maturity 
or trading (i.e., investments that the Company has no present plans to sell in the near-term but may be sold in the future under 
different circumstances). The Company’s investment portfolio consists of available-for-sale securities.  

Debt securities classified as held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost, while debt and equity securities classified 
as  available-for-sale  are  carried  at  estimated  market  value.    Unrealized  holding  gains  and  losses  from  available-for-sale 
securities are excluded from earnings and reported, net of applicable taxes, as a separate component of stockholders' equity 
until realized. 

The  Company  does  not  engage  in  trading  activities  and  accordingly  does  not  have  any  debt  or  equity  securities 
classified  as  trading  securities.  Historically  the  Company's  practice  had  been  to  purchase  and  hold  debt  instruments until 
maturity unless special circumstances exist. However, since the investment portfolio's major function is to provide liquidity 
and to balance the Company's interest rate sensitivity position, all debt securities are classified as available-for-sale. 

At  December  31,  2013,  the  investment  portfolio  classified  as  available-for-sale  represented  18.3%  of  total 
consolidated  assets.  Future  levels  of  held-to-maturity  and  available-for-sale  investment  securities  can  be  expected  to  vary 
depending upon liquidity and interest sensitivity needs as well as other factors.

At December 31, 2013 $13,000 of debt securities classified as available-for-sale in the table above had variable rate 

provisions with adjustment periods ranging from one week to twelve months. 

The following non-marketable securities are restricted securities which, lacking a market, are carried at cost. These 
securities are reported in other assets. At December 31, 2013, $2.4 million of the total included Federal Home Loan Bank 
(Des Moines) stock held by the Bank in accordance with debt and regulatory requirements. Other non-marketable securities 
include  a $1.5 million  equity  investment  in the  Company’s  unconsolidated  Exchange  Statutory  Trusts.  (See  Note  8  to the

The  role  of  liquidity  management  is to  ensure  funds  are  available  to  meet  depositors'  withdrawal  and  borrowers' 
credit demands while at the same time maximizing profitability. This is accomplished by  balancing changes in demand for 
funds with changes in the supply  of those funds. Liquidity  to meet the demands is provided by maturing assets, short-term 
liquid assets that can be converted to cash and the ability to attract funds from external sources, principally depositors.  Due 
to  the  nature  of  services  offered  by  the  Company,  management  prefers  to  focus  on  transaction  accounts  and  full  service 
relationships with customers. Management believes it has the ability to increase deposits at any time by offering rates slightly 
higher than the market rate.

The Company’s Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO), primarily made up of senior management, has direct oversight 
responsibility for the Company's liquidity position and profile. A combination of daily, weekly, and monthly reports provided 
to  management  detail  the  following:  internal  liquidity  metrics,  composition  and  level  of  the  liquid  asset  portfolio,  timing 
differences in short-term cash flow obligations, available pricing and market access to the financial markets for capital, and 
exposure to contingent draws on the Company's liquidity. 

The Company has a number of sources of funds to meet liquidity needs on a daily basis. The Company’s most liquid 
assets are comprised of available for sale investment securities, federal funds sold, and excess reserves held at the Federal 
Reserve.

Federal funds sold and resale agreements normally have overnight maturities and are used for general daily liquidity 
purposes. The fair value of the available for sale investment portfolio was $206.0 million at December 31, 2013 and included 
an unrealized net loss of $2.4 million. The portfolio includes projected maturities and mortgage backed securities pay-downs 
of  approximately  $7.5  million  over  the  next  twelve  months,  which  offer  resources  to  meet  either  new  loan  demand  or 
reductions in the Company’s deposit base. 

The  Company pledges  portions  of  its  investment  securities  portfolio  to  secure  public  fund deposits,  federal  funds 
purchase lines, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank, and for other 
purposes required by law. At December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, the Company’s unpledged securities 
in the available for sale portfolio totaled approximately $60.2 million and $53.8 million, respectively. 

Total investment securities pledged for these purposes were as follows:

Liquidity  is available  from  the Company’s  base  of  core  customer  deposits,  defined  as  demand,  interest  checking, 
savings, and money market deposit accounts. At December 31, 2013, such deposits totaled $606.4 million and represented 
63.4% of the Company’s total deposits. These core deposits are normally less volatile and are often tied to other products of 
the  Company  through  long  lasting  relationships.  Time  deposits  and  certificates  of  deposit  of  $100,000  and  over  totaled 
$350.0 million at December 31, 2013. These accounts are normally considered more volatile and higher costing representing 
36.6% of total deposits at December 31, 2013. 

Core deposits at December 31, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:

Other  components  of  liquidity  are  the  level  of  borrowings  from  third  party  sources  and  the  availability  of  future 
credit. The Company’s outside borrowings are comprised of securities sold under agreements to repurchase, Federal Home 
Loan  Bank  advances,  and  subordinated  notes.  Federal  funds  purchased  are  overnight  borrowings  obtained  mainly  from 
upstream  correspondent  banks  with  which  the  Company  maintains  approved  credit  lines.  As  of  December  31,  2013, 
under agreements with these unaffiliated banks, the Bank may borrow up to $26.50 million in federal funds on an unsecured 
basis  and  $4.7  million  on  a  secured  basis.  There  was  $13.5  million  federal  funds  purchased  outstanding  at  December  31, 
2013. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are generally  borrowed overnight and are secured by a portion of the 
Company’s investment portfolio. At December 31, 2013, there was $31.1 million in repurchase agreements. The Company 
may periodically borrow additional short-term funds from the Federal Reserve Bank through the discount window; although 
no such borrowings were outstanding at December 31, 2013.

The  Bank is a member  of  the  Federal Home  Loan  Bank  of  Des  Moines  (FHLB).  As  a  member  of  the  FHLB,  the 
Bank  has  access  to  credit  products  of  the  FHLB.  As  of  December  31,  2013,  the  Bank  had  $24.0  million  in  outstanding 
borrowings with the FHLB. In addition, the Company has $49.5 million in outstanding subordinated notes issued to wholly-
owned grantor trusts, funded by preferred securities issued by the trusts.

The Company pledges certain assets, including loans and investment securities to the Federal Reserve Bank, FHLB, 
and other correspondent banks as security to establish lines of credit and borrow from these entities. Based on the type and 
value of collateral pledged, the Company may draw advances against this collateral.

At December 31, 2013, loans with a market value of $381.6 million were pledged at the Federal Home Loan Bank 
as  collateral  for  borrowings  and  letters  of credit. At  December  31,  2013,  investments  with a  market  value  of  $5.3  million 
were pledged to secure federal funds purchase lines and borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve Bank. 

Sources and Uses of Funds 

Cash and  cash  equivalents  were  $28.4 million at  December  31,  2013 compared to  $58.9 million at  December 31, 
2012.  The  $30.4 million  decrease  resulted  from  changes  in  the  various  cash  flows  produced  by  operating,  investing,  and 
financing activities of the Company, as shown in the accompanying consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended 
December 31, 2013. Cash flow provided from operating activities consists mainly of net income adjusted for certain non-cash 
items. Operating activities provided cash flow of $20.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2013.  

Investing activities consisting mainly of purchases, sales and maturities of available for sale securities, and changes 
in  the  level  of  the  loan  portfolio,  used  total  cash  of  $9.5  million.  Cash  was  provided  by  $41.6  million  in  proceeds  from 
investment maturities, calls, and pay-downs, $32.6 million in proceeds from sales of investment securities, and $9.6 million 
in  proceeds  received  from  sales  of  other  real  estate  owned  and  repossessed  assets,  partially  offset  by  $88.1  million  in 
purchases of investment securities. 

Financing activities used cash of $41.1 million, resulting primarily from a $43.3 million decrease in time deposits, 
$18.2 million to redeem the remaining shares of preferred stock, and $540,000 to redeem the common stock warrant. These 
decreases were partially offset by a $13.4 million increase in interest-bearing transaction accounts, a $10.0 million increase in 
federal  funds  purchased and  securities sold  under  agreements  to repurchase, and  a  $3.9  million  net  advance  from  Federal 
Home  Loan  Bank.  Future  short-term  liquidity  needs  arising  from  daily  operations  are  not  expected  to  vary  significantly 
during 2013.   

 In the normal course of business, the Company enters into certain forms of off-balance sheet transactions, including 
unfunded  loan  commitments  and  letters  of  credit.  These  transactions  are  managed  through  the  Company's  various  risk 
management processes. Management considers both on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet transactions in its evaluation of 
the Company's liquidity. The Company had $128.3 million in unused loan commitments and standby letters of  credit as of 
December  31,  2013.  Although  the  Company's  current  liquidity  resources  are  adequate  to  fund  this  commitment  level  the 
nature of these commitments is such that the likelihood of such a funding demand is very low. 

The Company is a legal entity, separate and distinct from the Bank, which must provide its own liquidity to meet its 
operating needs. The Company’s  ongoing liquidity needs primarily include funding its operating expenses and paying cash 

23 

 
 
 
  
 
dividends  to  its  common  and  preferred  shareholders.  The  Company  paid  cash  dividends  to  its  common  and  preferred 
shareholders  totaling  approximately  $1.4  and  $2.1  million  for  years  ended  December  31,  2013  and  2012,  respectively.  A 
large portion of the Company’s liquidity is  obtained from the Bank in the form of dividends. The Bank declared and paid 
$15.0  million  and  $4.5  million  in  dividends  to  the  Company  during  the  years  ended  December  31,  2013  and  2012, 
respectively.  At  December  31,  2013  and  2012,  the  Company  had  cash  and  cash  equivalents  totaling  $450,000  and  $1.9 
million, respectively. 

Capital Management 

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

Quantitative measures established by regulations to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to 
maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total and Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets, and 
of Tier I capital to adjusted-average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company and the 
Bank each met all capital adequacy requirements. 

In  July 2013,  the  federal  banking agencies  issued  final rules to  implement the  Basel  III regulatory  capital reforms  and 
changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act. The phase-in period for community banking organizations begins January 1, 2015, 
while larger institutions (generally those with assets of $250 billion or more) must begin compliance on January 1, 2014. The 
final rules call for the following capital requirements:  

�  A minimum ratio of common tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5%. 
�  A minimum ratio of tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6%. 
�  A minimum leverage ratio of 4%. 

In addition, the final rules establish a common equity tier 1 capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets 
applicable to all banking organizations. If a banking organization fails to hold capital above the minimum capital ratios and 
the  capital  conservation  buffer,  it  will  be  subject  to  certain  restrictions  on  capital  distributions  and  discretionary  bonus 
payments. The phase-in period for the capital conservation and countercyclical capital buffers for all banking organizations 
will begin on January 1, 2016. 

Under the proposed rules previously issued by the federal banking agencies, accumulated other comprehensive income 
(AOCI) would have been included in a banking organization’s common equity tier 1 capital. The final rules allow community 
banks  to  make  a  one-time  election  not  to  include  these  new  AOCI  components  in  regulatory  capital  and  instead  use  the 
existing treatment under the general risk-based capital rules that excludes most AOCI  components from regulatory capital. 
The opt-out election must be made in the first call report or FR Y-9 series report that is filed after the financial institution 
becomes subject to the final rule.  

The  final  rules permanently  grandfather  non-qualifying  capital  instruments  (such  as  trust  preferred  securities  and 
cumulative perpetual preferred stock) issued before May 19, 2010 for inclusion in the tier 1 capital of banking organizations 
with  total  consolidated  assets  less  than  $15  billion  as  of  December 31,  2009  and  banking  organizations  that  were  mutual 
holding companies as of May 19, 2010. 

The  Company  has  assessed  the  impact  of  these  changes  and  it  does  not  expect  there  to  be  a  material  impact  on  the 

regulatory ratios of the Company and the Bank and on the capital, operations and earnings of the Company and the Bank. 

The Company exceeded all capital adequacy requirements as of December 31, for the years indicated:

In the normal course of business, the Company is party to activities that contain credit, market and operational risk 
that  are  not  reflected  in  whole  or  in  part  in  the  Company's  consolidated  financial  statements.  Such  activities  include 
traditional off-balance sheet credit related financial instruments. 

The  Company  provides  customers  with  off-balance  sheet  credit  support  through  loan  commitments  and  standby  letters  of 
credit.  Summarized credit-related financial instruments, including both commitments to extend credit and letters of credit at

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk 

Interest Sensitivity  

Market  risk  arises  from  exposure  to  changes  in  interest  rates  and  other  relevant  market  rate  or  price  risk.  The 
Company faces market risk in the form of interest rate risk through transactions other than trading activities. The Company 
uses financial modeling techniques to measure interest rate risk. These techniques measure the sensitivity of future earnings 
due  to  changing  interest  rate  environments.  Guidelines  established  by  the  Company's  Asset/Liability  Committee  and 
approved by the board of directors are used to monitor exposure of earnings at risk. General interest rate movements are used 
to develop sensitivity as the Company feels it has no primary exposure to specific points on the yield curve. At December 31, 
2013, the rate shock scenario models indicated that annual net interest income could change by as much as (20.5%) to 29.0% 
should interest rates rise or fall, respectively, 400 basis points from their current level over a one year period. However there 
are no assurances that the change will not be more or less than this estimate. Management believes this is an acceptable level 
of risk.  

25 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The  following  table  represents  estimated  interest  rate  sensitivity  and  periodic  and  cumulative  gap  positions 
calculated  as  of  December  31,  2013.  Significant  assumptions  used  for  this  table  included:  loans  will  repay  at  historic 
repayment  rates;  certain  interest-bearing  demand  accounts  are  interest  sensitive  due  to  immediate  repricing,  and  fixed 
maturity deposits will not be withdrawn prior to maturity. A significant variance in actual results from one or more of these 
assumptions could materially affect the results reflected in the table.

Effects of Inflation 

The effects of inflation on financial institutions are different from the effects on other commercial enterprises since 
financial institutions make few significant capital or inventory expenditures, which are directly affected by changing prices. 
Because bank assets and liabilities are virtually all monetary in nature, inflation does not affect a financial institution as much 
as do changes in interest rates. The general level of inflation does underlie the general level of most interest rates, but interest 
rates do not increase at the rate of inflation as do prices of goods and services. Rather, interest rates react more to changes in 
the expected rate of inflation and to changes in monetary and fiscal policy. 

Inflation  does  have  an  impact  on  the  growth  of  total  assets  in  the  banking  industry,  often  resulting  in  a need  to 
increase capital at higher than normal rates to maintain an appropriate capital to asset ratio. In the opinion of management, 
inflation did not have a significant effect on the Company's operations for the year ended December 31, 2013. 

Impact of New Accounting Standards 

No new accounting pronouncements issued during the year ended December 31, 2013, have had or are expected to 

have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders 
Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc.: 

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets  of  Hawthorn  Bancshares,  Inc.  and 
subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of 
income, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year 
period  ended  December 31,  2013.  These  consolidated  financial  statements  are  the  responsibility  of  the 
Company’s  management.  Our  responsibility  is  to  express  an  opinion  on  these  consolidated  financial 
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight 
Board  (United  States).  Those  standards  require  that  we  plan  and  perform  the  audit  to  obtain  reasonable 
assurance  about  whether  the  financial  statements  are  free  of  material  misstatement.  An  audit includes 
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An 
audit  also  includes  assessing  the  accounting  principles  used  and  significant  estimates  made  by 
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits 
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. 

In  our  opinion,  the  consolidated  financial  statements  referred  to  above  present  fairly,  in  all  material 
respects, the financial position of Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 
2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period 
ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We  also  have  audited,  in  accordance  with  the  standards  of  the  Public  Company  Accounting  Oversight 
Board  (United  States),  Hawthorn  Bancshares,  Inc.’s  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  as  of 
December 31,  2013,  based  on  criteria  established  in Internal  Control  – Integrated  Framework  (1992)
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated 
March 31,  2014  expressed  an  unqualified  opinion  on  the  effectiveness  of  Hawthorn  Bancshares,  Inc.’s 
internal control over financial reporting.

(1)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 

Hawthorn Bancshares, Inc. (the Company) through its subsidiary, Hawthorn Bank (the Bank), provides a broad range 
of banking services to individual and corporate customers located  within the communities in and surrounding Jefferson City, 
Clinton,  Warsaw,  Springfield,  Branson,  and  Lee’s  Summit,  Missouri.  The  Company  is  subject  to  competition  from  other 
financial and nonfinancial institutions providing financial products. Additionally, the Company and its subsidiaries are subject 
to the regulations of certain regulatory agencies and undergo periodic examinations by those regulatory agencies. 

The  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements  of  the  Company  have  been  prepared  in  conformity  with  U.S. 
generally  accepted  accounting  principles  (U.S.  GAAP).  The  preparation  of the  consolidated  financial  statements includes all 
adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary in order to make those statements not misleading. Management 
is required to make estimates and assumptions, including the determination of the allowance for loan losses, real estate acquired 
in connection with foreclosure or in satisfaction of loans, and fair values of investment securities available-for-sale 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ 
from  those estimates.  The  Company’s  management has  evaluated  and  did not identify  any  subsequent  events  or  transactions 
requiring recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.  

Stock Dividend On July 1, 2013, the Company paid a special stock dividend of four percent to common shareholders of record 
at the close of business on June 15, 2013. For all periods presented, share information, including basic and diluted earnings per 
share, has been adjusted retroactively to reflect this change. 

The significant accounting policies used by the Company in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements 

are summarized below: 

Principles of Consolidation 

In  December  of  2008  and  March  of  2010,  the  Company  formed  Hawthorn  Real  Estate,  LLC,  and  Real  Estate  Holdings  of 
Missouri,  LLC,  respectively  (the  Real  Estate  Companies);  both  are  wholly  owned  subsidiaries  of  the  Company.  The 
consolidated  financial  statements  include  the  accounts  of  the  Company,  Hawthorn  Bank  (the  Bank),  and  the  Real  Estate 
Companies. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 

Loans 
Loans that the Company has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or maturity are held for investment at their 
stated unpaid principal balance amount less unearned income and the allowance for loan losses. Income on loans is accrued on 
a simple-interest basis. Loan origination fees and certain direct costs are deferred and recognized over the life of the loan as an 
adjustment to yield. 

Loans Held for Sale 

The  Bank  originates  certain  loans  which  are  sold  in  the  secondary  market. These  long-term,  fixed  rate  loans  are  typically 
classified as held for sale upon origination based on management’s intent to sell. In order to manage the risk associated with 
such activities, the Company upon locking in an interest rate with the borrower enters into an agreement to sell such loans in 
the  secondary  market.  Loans  held  for  sale  are  typically  sold  with  servicing  rights  retained  and  without  recourse  except  for 
normal and customary representation and warranty provisions. At December 31, 2013 there were $95,882 mortgage loans that 
were held for sale in comparison to $2.3 million loans held for sale at December 31, 2012.  

Mortgage loan servicing fees earned on loans sold are reported as other noninterest income when the related loan payments are 
collected net of amortization from mortgage servicing rights. Operational costs to service such loans are charged to expense as 
incurred.

December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 

Impaired Loans 

A loan is considered impaired when it is probable the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due, both principal and 
interest,  according  to  the  contractual  terms  of  the  loan  agreement.  Included  in  impaired  loans  are  all  non-accrual  loans  and 
loans  whose  terms  have  been  modified  in  a  troubled  debt  restructuring.  Impaired  loans  are  individually  evaluated  for 
impairment based on fair values of the underlying collateral, obtained through independent appraisals or internal valuations for 
a collateral dependent loan, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows.  

Non-Accrual Loans 

Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when management believes that the borrower’s financial condition, after consideration of 
business conditions and collection efforts, is such that collection of interest is doubtful. Loans that are contractually 90 days 
past due as to principal and/or interest payments are generally placed on non-accrual, unless they are both well-secured and in 
the process of collection. Subsequent interest payments received on such loans are applied to principal if doubt exists as to the 
collectability  of  such principal;  otherwise,  such receipts  are  recorded  as  interest  income  on  a  cash  basis.  A  loan remains on 
nonaccrual  status  until  the loan is  current as to payment  of  both  principal  and interest  and/or the  borrower  demonstrates  the 
ability to pay and remain current. 

Restructured Loans 

A modified or restructured loan is accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) for any loans in which concessions are 
made  to  the  borrower  for  economic  or  legal  reasons  that  the  Company  would  not  otherwise  consider  and  the  borrower  is 
experiencing financial difficulty. A loan classified as a TDR  will generally retain such classification until the loan is paid in 
full.  Non-accrual TDRs are returned to accruing status once the borrower demonstrates the ability to pay under the terms of the 
restructured note through a sustained period of repayment performance, which is generally six months. The Company includes 
all accruing and non-accruing TDRs in the impaired and non-performing asset totals. TDRs are measured for impairment loss 
by  using  fair  values  of  the  underlying  collateral  obtained  through  independent  appraisals  and  internal  evaluations,  or  by 
discounting the total expected future cash flows.  

Allowance for Loan Losses 

Management has identified the accounting policy related to the allowance for loan losses as critical to the understanding of the 
Company's  results  of  operations,  since  the  application  of  this  policy  requires  significant  management  assumptions  and 
estimates  that  could  result  in  materially  different  amounts  to  be  reported  if  conditions  or  underlying  circumstances  were  to 
change. Many of the loans are deemed collateral dependent for purposes of the measurement of the impairment loss, thus the 
fair value of the underlying collateral and sensitivity of such fair values due to changing market conditions, supply and demand, 
condition  of  the  collateral  and  other  factors  can  be  volatile  over  periods  of  time.  Such  volatility  can have  an  impact on  the 
financial performance of the Company.   

Loans, or portions of loans, are charged off to the extent deemed uncollectible or a loss is confirmed. Loan charge-offs reduce 
the allowance for loan losses, and recoveries of loans previously charged off are added back to the allowance. If management 
determines  that  it  is  probable  that  all  amounts  due  on  a  loan  will  not  be  collected  under  the  original  terms  of  the  loan 
agreement, the loan is  considered to  be  impaired.  These  loans  are  evaluated  individually  for  impairment,  and  in  conjunction 
with  current  economic  conditions  and  loss  experience,  specific  reserves  are  estimated.  Loans  not  individually  evaluated  are 
aggregated by risk characteristics and reserves are recorded using a consistent methodology that considers historical loan loss 
experience  by  loan type,  delinquencies,  current  economic  conditions,  loan risk ratings,  and  industry  concentration.  Although 
the allowance for loan losses are comprised of specific and general allocations, the entire allowance is available to absorb credit 
losses. 

The  specific  reserve  component  applies  to  loans  evaluated  individually  for  impairment.  The  net  carrying  value  of  impaired 
loans is generally based on the fair values of collateral obtained through independent appraisals and/or internal evaluations, or 
by discounting the total expected future cash flows. Once the impairment amount is calculated, a specific reserve allocation is 
recorded. The incurred loss component of the general reserve, or loans collectively evaluated for impairment, is determined by

December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 

applying  loss  rates  to  pools  of  loans  by  asset  type.  Loans  not  individually  evaluated  are  aggregated  based  on  similar  risk 
characteristics.  Historical  loss  rates  for  each  risk  group,  which  are  updated  quarterly,  are  quantified  using  all  recorded  loan 
charge-offs.  Management  determined  that  the  previous  twelve  quarters  were  reflective  of  the  loss  characteristics  of  the 
Company’s loan portfolio during the recent economic environment. These historical loss rates for each risk group are used as 
the starting point to determine loss rates for measurement purposes. The Company’s methodology includes factors that allow 
management  to  adjust  its  estimates  of  losses  based  on  the  most  recent  information  available.  The  rates  are  then  adjusted  to 
reflect actual changes and anticipated changes such as changes in specific allowances on loans and real estate acquired through 
foreclosure, any gains and losses on final disposition of real estate acquired through foreclosure, changes in national and local 
economic  conditions  and  developments,  including  general  economic  and  business  conditions  affecting  the  Company’s  key 
lending areas, credit quality trends, specific industry conditions within portfolio segments, bank regulatory examination results, 
and  findings  of  the  internal  loan  review  department.  These  risk  factors  are  generally  reviewed  and  updated  quarterly,  as 
appropriate.  

Investment in Debt and Equity Securities 

At  the  time  of  purchase,  debt  securities  are  classified  into  one  of  two  categories:  available-for-sale  or  held-to-maturity. 
Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity. All 
debt securities not classified as held-to-maturity are classified as available-for-sale. The Company’s securities are classified as 
available-for-sale  and  are  carried  at  fair  value.  Changes  in  fair  value,  excluding  certain  losses  associated  with  other-than-
temporary  impairment,  are  reported  in  other  comprehensive  income,  net  of  taxes,  a  component  of  stockholders’  equity. 
Securities are periodically evaluated for other-than-temporary impairment in accordance with guidance provided in the FASB 
ASC Topic 320, Investments –Debt and Equity Securities. For those securities with other-than-temporary impairment, the entire 
loss in fair  value is required  to  be recognized  in  current  earnings if  the  Company  intends to sell  the  securities  or  believes it 
more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before the anticipated recovery. If neither condition is met, but 
the Company does not expect to recover the amortized cost basis, the Company determines whether a credit loss has occurred, 
which  is  then  recognized  in  current  earnings.  The  amount  of  the  total  other-than-temporary  impairment  related  to  all  other 
factors is recognized in other comprehensive income.  

Premiums and discounts are amortized using the interest method over the lives of the respective securities, with consideration 
of historical and estimated prepayment rates for mortgage-backed securities, as an adjustment to yield. Dividend and interest 
income  are  recognized  when  earned.  Realized  gains  and  losses  for  securities  classified  as  available-for-sale  are  included  in 
earnings based on the specific identification method for determining the cost of securities sold. 

Capital Stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank 

The  Bank,  as  a  member  of  the  Federal  Home  Loan  Bank  System  administered  by  the  Federal Housing  Finance  Board,  is 
required to maintain an investment in the capital stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB) in an amount 
equal to 12 basis points of the Bank’s year-end total assets plus 4.45% of advances from the FHLB to the Bank. These invest-
ments are recorded at cost, which represents redemption value. 

Premises and Equipment 

Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation applicable to  buildings and improve-
ments and furniture and equipment is charged to expense using straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful 
lives of the assets. Such lives are estimated to be 5 to 40 years for buildings and improvements and 3 to 15 years for furniture 
and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. 

Core Deposit Intangibles 

Intangible assets that have finite useful lives, such as core deposit intangibles, are amortized over their estimated useful lives. 
Core  deposit  intangibles  are  amortized  over  periods  of  7  to  8  years representing their  estimated  lives  using  straight  line  and 
accelerated methods.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 

When  facts  and  circumstances  indicate  potential  impairment  of  amortizable  intangible  assets,  the  Company  evaluates  the 
recoverability of the carrying value based upon future cash flows expected to result from the use of the underlying asset and its 
eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the 
carrying value of the underlying asset, the Company recognizes an impairment loss. The impairment loss recognized represents 
the amount by which the carrying value of the underlying asset exceeds the fair value of the underlying asset.  

Mortgage Servicing Rights 

The Company originates and sells residential mortgage loans in the secondary market and may retain the right to service the 
loans sold. Servicing involves the collection of payments from individual borrowers and the distribution of those payments to 
the investors or master servicer. Upon a sale of mortgage loans for which servicing rights are retained, the retained mortgage 
servicing rights asset is capitalized at the fair value of future net cash flows  expected to  be realized for performing servicing 
activities.  

Mortgage servicing rights do not trade in an active market with readily  observable prices. The Company determines the  fair 
value  of  mortgage  servicing rights  by  estimating  the  fair  value  of  the  future  cash  flows  associated  with  the  mortgage  loans 
being serviced. Key economic assumptions used in measuring the fair value of mortgage servicing rights include, but are not 
limited  to,  prepayment  speeds,  discount  rates,  delinquencies,  ancillary  income,  and  cost  to  service.  These  assumptions  are 
validated on a periodic basis. The fair value is validated on a quarterly basis with an independent third party valuation specialist 
firm.  

On  January  1,  2012,  the  Company  opted  to  measure  mortgage  servicing  rights  at  fair  value  as  permitted  by  Accounting 
Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 860-50, Accounting for Servicing Financial Assets. The election of this option resulted in 
the recognition  of  a cumulative  effect of  change  in  accounting  principle  of  $459,890,  which  was  recorded  as an increase to 
beginning retained  earnings.  As such,  effective January  1, 2012,  changes  in  the  fair  value  of  mortgage  servicing rights  have 
been recognized in real estate servicing fees, net in non-interest income in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income 
in the period in which the change occurred. 

Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets 

Other real estate owned and repossessed assets  consist of loan collateral that has been repossessed through foreclosure. This 
collateral  is  comprised  of  commercial  and  residential  real  estate  and  other  non-real  estate  property,  including  autos, 
manufactured homes, and construction equipment. Other real estate owned assets are initially recorded as held for sale at the 
fair  value of  the  collateral  less  estimated  selling  costs.  Any  adjustment is recorded  as a  charge-off  against  the allowance for 
loan losses. The Company relies on external appraisals and assessment of property values by internal staff. In the case of non-
real estate collateral, reliance is placed on a variety  of sources, including external estimates of  value and judgment based on 
experience and expertise of internal specialists. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically, and the assets 
may  be  written  down  to  reflect  a  new  cost  basis.  The  write-downs  are recorded  as  other real  estate  expense.  The  Company 
establishes  a  valuation  allowance  related  to  other  real  estate  owned  on  an  asset-by-asset  basis.  The  valuation  allowance  is 
created during the holding period when the fair value less cost to sell is lower than the cost of the property.  

Pension Plan 

The Company provides a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan for all full-time employees.  The benefits are based on 
age, years of service and the level of compensation during the employees highest ten years of compensation before retirement. 
Net  periodic  costs  are recognized  as  employees  render  the services  necessary  to  earn the  retirement  benefits.  The Company 
records  annual  amounts  relating  to  its  pension  plan  based  on  calculations  that  incorporate  various  actuarial  and  other 
assumptions  including  discount  rates,  mortality,  assumed  rates  of  return,  compensation  increases,  and  turnover  rates.    The 
Company reviews its assumptions on an annual basis and may make modifications to the assumptions based on current rates 
and trends  when it  is appropriate  to do  so.    The  Company  believes  that  the assumptions  utilized  in recording its obligations 
under its plan are reasonable based on its experience and market conditions.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 

The Company follows authoritative guidance included in the FASB ASC Topic 715, Compensation – Retirement Plans under 
the subtopic Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans. ASC Topic 715 requires an 
employer  to  recognize  the  overfunded  or  underfunded  status  of  a  defined  benefit  postretirement  plan  (other  than  a 
multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its consolidated balance sheet and to recognize changes in the funded status in the 
year  in  which  the  changes  occur  through  comprehensive  income.  This  guidance  also  requires  an  employer  to  measure  the 
funded  status  of  a  plan  as  of  the  date  of  its  fiscal  year-end,  with  limited  exceptions.  Additional  disclosures  are  required  to 
provide users with an understanding of how investment allocation decisions are made, major categories of plan assets, and fair 
value measurement of plan assets as defined in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. 

Income Taxes 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset / liability method by recognizing the amount of taxes payable or refundable for 
the current period and deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the 
Company’s financial statements or tax returns. Judgment is required in addressing the Company’s future tax consequences of 
events  that have  been  recognized  in the  consolidated  financial statements  or  tax  returns  such  as realization  of  the  effects  of 
temporary  differences,  net  operating  loss  carry  forwards  and  changes  in  tax  laws  or  interpretations  thereof.  A  valuation 
allowance is established when in the judgment of management, it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not 
become realizable. In this case, the Company would adjust the recorded value of our deferred tax asset, which would result in a 
direct charge to income tax expense in the period that the determination was made. Likewise, the Company would reverse the 
valuation allowance when it is expected to realize the deferred tax asset. In addition, the Company is subject to the continuous 
examination of its tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities. The Company accrues for penalties 
and interest related to income taxes in income tax expense. At December 31, 2011, the Company released $28,000 of interest 
accrued related to the release of $221,000 of uncertain tax provisions. The Company had not recognized any tax liabilities or 
any interest or penalties in income tax expense related to uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.  

Trust Department 

Property held by the Bank in a fiduciary or agency capacity  for customers is not included in the accompanying consolidated 
balance sheets, since such items are not assets of the Company. Trust department income is recognized on the accrual basis. 

Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows 

For the purpose of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of short-term federal funds sold 
and securities sold or purchased under agreements to resell, interest earning deposits with banks, cash, and due from banks. 

Stock-Based Compensation  

The  Company’s  stock-based employee compensation  plan is  described  in Note  12,  Stock  Compensation.  In  accordance with 
FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, the Company measures the cost of the stock-based compensation 
based  on  the  grant-date  fair  value  of  the  award,  recognizing  the  cost  over  the  requisite  service  period.  The  fair  value  of  an 
award  is  estimated  using  the  Black-Scholes  option-pricing  model.  The  expense  recognized  is  based  on  an  estimation of  the 
number of awards for which the requisite service is expected to be rendered, and is included in salaries and employee benefits 
in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. The standard also requires that excess tax benefits related to stock 
option exercises be reflected as financing cash inflows instead of operating cash inflows.   

Treasury Stock 

The purchase of the Company’s common stock is recorded at cost. Purchases of the stock are made both in the open market and 
through negotiated private purchases based on market prices. At the date of subsequent reissue, the treasury stock account is 
reduced by the cost associated with such stock on a first-in-first-out basis.  

Reclassifications 

Certain prior year information has been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 

The following represents significant new accounting principles adopted in 2013: 

Balance  Sheet  In  December  2011, the  FASB  issued  ASU  2011-11,  Disclosures  about  Offsetting  Assets  and Liabilities.  The 
ASU  is  a  joint  requirement  by  the  FASB  and  International  Accounting  Standards  Board  to  enhance  current  disclosures  and 
increase comparability of U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) financial statements. Under the 
ASU, an entity will be required to disclose both gross and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset 
in the balance sheet, as well as instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting agreement. ASU 
2013-01, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, was issued in January 2013, and amended 
ASU  2011-11  to  specifically  include  only  derivatives  accounted  for  under  Topic  815,  repurchase  and  reverse  purchase 
agreements, and  securities  and  borrowing  and  lending  transactions  that  are  either  offset  or  subject  to  an  enforceable  master 
netting arrangement. Both ASUs are effective for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2013. The adoption of these 
ASUs had no effect on the Company’s financial statements. 

Other Comprehensive Income In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out 
of  Accumulated  Other  Comprehensive  Income  (AOCI).  The  amendments  of  ASU  No.  2013-02  require  an  entity  to  present, 
either in the income statement or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income 
by the respective line items of net income, but only if the amount reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to 
net  income  in  its  entirety  in  the  same  reporting  period.  For  other  amounts  that  are  not  required  under  U.S.  GAAP  to  be 
reclassified  in  their  entirety,  an  entity  is  required  to  cross-reference  to  other  disclosures  that  provide  additional  detail  about 
those amounts. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2013. As a result of the adoption of 
the ASU, the disclosure of AOCI included in Note 10 contains information regarding reclassifications out of AOCI and into net

The  Bank  grants  real  estate,  commercial,  installment,  and  other  consumer  loans  to  customers  located  within  the 
communities  surrounding  Jefferson  City,  Clinton,  Warsaw,  Springfield,  Branson  and  Lee’s  Summit,  Missouri.  As  such,  the 
Bank is susceptible to changes in the economic environment in these communities. The Bank does not have a concentration of 
credit  in  any  one  economic  sector.  Installment  and  other  consumer  loans  consist  primarily  of  the  financing  of  vehicles.  At 
December 31, 2013, loans with a carrying value of $388.1 million were pledged to the Federal Home Loan Bank as collateral 
for borrowings and letters of credit.

Such loans were made in the normal course of business on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and 
collateral requirements, as those prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with other persons, and did not involve 
more than the normal risk of collectability or present unfavorable features.

Loans, or portions of loans, are charged off to the extent deemed uncollectible or a loss is confirmed. Loan charge-offs 
reduce  the  allowance  for  loan  losses,  and  recoveries  of  loans  previously  charged  off  are  added  back  to  the  allowance.  If 
management determines that it is probable that all amounts due on a loan will not be collected under the original terms of the 
loan  agreement,  the  loan  is  considered  to  be  impaired.  These  loans  are  evaluated  individually  for  impairment,  and  in 
conjunction with current economic conditions and loss experience, specific reserves are estimated as further discussed below. 
Loans  not  individually  evaluated  are  aggregated  by  risk  characteristics  and  reserves  are  recorded  using  a  consistent 
methodology that considers historical loan loss experience by loan type, delinquencies, current economic conditions, loan risk 
ratings and industry concentration.

Loans  evaluated  under  ASC  310-10-35  include  loans  which  are  individually  evaluated  for  impairment.  All  other  loans  are 
collectively evaluated for impairment under ASC 450-20. Impaired loans totaled $35.1 million and $39.4 million at December 31, 
2013 and 2012, respectively, and are comprised of loans on non-accrual status and loans which have been classified as troubled 
debt  restructurings.  Total  impaired  loans  of  $35.1  million  at  December  31,  2013,  includes  $34.8  million  of  impaired  loans 
individually  evaluated  for  impairment  and  $259,000  of  non-accrual  consumer  loans  that  were  collectively  evaluated  for 
impairment. Total impaired loans of $39.4 million at December 31, 2012, includes $39.2 million of impaired loans individually 
evaluated for impairment and $174,000 of non-accrual consumer loans that were collectively evaluated for impairment.  

The  net  carrying  value  of  impaired  loans  is  generally  based  on  the  fair  values  of  collateral  obtained  through  independent 
appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, $21.8 
million and $36.1 million, respectively, of impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Once the 
impairment amount is calculated, a specific reserve allocation is recorded. At December 31, 2013, $4.8 million of the Company’s 
allowance  for  loan  losses  was  allocated  to  impaired  loans  totaling  $35.1  million  compared  to  $4.0  million  of  the  Company's 
allowance  for  loan  losses allocated  to  impaired loans  totaling  approximately  $39.4 million at  December  31,  2012. Management 
determined that $18.8 million, or 54%, of total impaired loans required no reserve allocation at December 31, 2013 compared to 
$14.7 million, or 37%, at December 31, 2012 primarily due to adequate collateral values, acceptable payment history and adequate 
cash flow ability.

The  recorded  investment  varies  from  the  unpaid  principal  balance  primarily  due  to  partial  charge-offs  taken  resulting  from 
current appraisals received. The amount recognized as interest income on impaired loans continuing to accrue interest, primarily 
related to troubled debt restructurings, was $504,000 and $414,000, for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. 
The average recorded investment in impaired loans is calculated on a monthly basis during the years reported. Contractual interest 
lost on loans in non-accrual status was $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Credit Quality 

The  Company  categorizes  loans  into  risk  categories  based  upon  an  internal  rating  system  reflecting  management’s  risk 
assessment. Loans are placed on watch status when (1) one or more weaknesses that could jeopardize timely liquidation exits; 
or (2) the margin or liquidity of an asset is sufficiently tenuous that adverse trends could result in a collection problem. Loans 
classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the 
collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified may have a well defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the repayment 
of the debt. Such loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company may sustain some loss if the deficiencies 
are not corrected. It is the Company's policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income on loans when management believes 
that  the  collection of  interest  or  principal  is  doubtful.  Loans  are  placed  on  non-accrual  status  when  (1)  deterioration  in  the 
financial condition of the borrower exists for which payment of full principal and interest is not expected, or (2) payment of 
principal or interest has been in default for a period of 90 days or more and the asset is not both well secured and in the process 
of  collection.  Subsequent  interest  payments  received  on  such  loans  are  applied  to  principal  if  any  doubt  exists  as  to  the 
collectability of such principal; otherwise, such receipts are recorded as interest income on a cash basis.

Troubled Debt Restructurings 

At  December  31,  2013,  loans  classified  as  troubled  debt  restructurings  (TDRs)  totaled  $21.5  million,  of  which  $10.1 
million were on non-accrual status and $11.4 million were on accrual status. At December 31, 2012, loans classified as TDRs 
totaled  $22.4 million,  of  which  $14.1 million  were  on  non-accrual  status  and  $8.3  million  were  on  accrual  status.  When  an 
individual loan is determined to be a TDR, the amount of impairment is based upon the present value of expected future cash 
flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or the fair value of the underlying collateral less applicable selling costs. 
Accordingly, specific reserves of $2.2 million and $1.5 million related to TDRs were allocated to the allowance for loan losses 
at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  

The following table summarizes loans that were modified as TDRs during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

(1) The amounts reported post-modification are inclusive of all partial pay-downs and charge-offs, and no portion of the debt was forgiven. 
Loans modified as a TDR that were fully paid down, charged-off or foreclosed upon during the period ended are not reported.  

The Company’s portfolio of loans classified as TDRs include concessions such as interest rates below the current market 
rate, deferring principal payments, and extending maturity dates. Once a loan becomes a TDR, it will continue to be reported as 
a  TDR  until it  is  ultimately  repaid in  full,  charged-off,  or  the  collateral  for  the  loan  is  foreclosed  and  sold.  The  Company 
considers a loan in TDR status in default when the borrower’s payment according to the modified terms is at least 90 days past 
due  or  has  defaulted  due  to  expiration  of  the  loan’s  maturity  date.  During  the  year  ended  December  31,  2013,  four  loans 
meeting the TDR criteria were modified compared to fourteen loans during the year ended December 31, 2012. There were no

The  total  available  for  sale  portfolio  consisted  of  approximately  348  securities  at  December  31,  2013.  The  portfolio 
included  96  securities  having  an  aggregate  fair  value  of  $115.1  million  that  were  in  a  loss  position  at  December  31,  2013. 
Securities identified as temporarily impaired which had been in a loss position for 12 months or longer totaled $6.4 million at 
fair value. The $4.2 million aggregate unrealized loss included in accumulated other comprehensive income at December 31, 
2013 was caused by interest rate fluctuations. The total available for sale portfolio consisted of approximately 380 securities at 
December  31,  2012.  The  portfolio  included  14  securities  having  an  aggregate  fair  value  of  $8.0  million  that  were  in  a  loss 
position at December 31, 2012. Securities identified as temporarily impaired which had been in a loss position for 12 months or 
longer  totaled  $150,000  at  fair  value.  The  $28,000  aggregate  unrealized  loss  included  in  other  comprehensive  income  at 
December  31,  2012  was  caused  by  interest  rate  fluctuations.  Because  the  decline  in  fair  value  is  attributable  to  changes  in 
interest rates  and not  credit quality  these  investments  were  not  considered  other-than-temporarily  impaired  at  December 31, 
2013 and 2012, respectively.

On January 1, 2012, the Company opted to measure mortgage servicing rights at fair value as permitted by Accounting 
Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 860-50, Accounting for Servicing Financial Assets. The election of this option resulted in 
the recognition  of  a cumulative  effect of  change  in  accounting  principle  of  $459,890,  which  was  recorded  as an increase to 
beginning retained  earnings.  As such,  effective January  1, 2012,  changes  in  the  fair  value  of  mortgage  servicing rights  have 
been recognized in earnings in non-interest income in the period in which the change occurred.  

At December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, the Company  serviced mortgage loans for others totaling $322.5 million 
and  $310.6 million,  respectively.  Mortgage  loan  servicing  fees,  reported  as  non-interest  income,  earned  on  loans  sold  were 
$901,000, $878,000, and $863,000, for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.  

The  table  below  presents  changes  in  mortgage  servicing  rights  (MSRs)  for  the  years  ended  December  31,  2013,  2012,  and

(1)  The change in fair value resulting from changes in valuation inputs or assumptions used in the valuation model reflects the change in 

discount rates and prepayment speed assumptions primarily due to changes in interest rates. 

(2)  Other changes in fair value reflect changes due to customer payments and passage of time. This also includes a one time adjustment of a 
$538,000 correction of an immaterial prior period error due to changing from the straight-line amortization method to an accelerated 
amortization method of accounting for amortizing MSRs in prior years. If the aforementioned was corrected as of December 31, 2011, 
the balance at the beginning of the period would have been $1.8 million.

The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (FHLB) and has access to term financing from 
the FHLB. These borrowings are secured under a blanket agreement which assigns all investment in FHLB stock, as well as 
mortgage  loans  equal  to  125%  to  175%  (based  on  collateral  type)  of  the  outstanding  advance  balance,  to  secure  amounts 
borrowed  by the Bank. The outstanding balance of $24.0 million includes $10.0 million which the FHLB may call for early 
payment within the next year. Based upon the collateral pledged to the FHLB at December 31, 2013, the Bank could borrow up 
to an additional $235.2 million under the agreement.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 

December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 

On March 17, 2005, Exchange Statutory Trust II, a business trust and subsidiary of the Company, issued $23.0 million of 
30-year floating rate Trust Preferred Securities (TPS) to a TPS Pool. The floating rate is equal to a three-month LIBOR rate 
plus 1.83% and reprices quarterly (2.07% at December 31, 2013). The TPS can be prepaid without penalty at any time after 
five years from the issuance date. 

The TPS represent preferred interests in the trust. The Company invested approximately $712,000 in common interests 
in the trust and the purchaser in the private placement purchased $23.0 million in preferred interests. The proceeds were used 
by the trust to purchase from the Company its 30-year deeply subordinated debentures whose terms mirror those stated above 
for the TPS. The debentures are guaranteed by the Company pursuant to a subordinated guarantee. Distributions on the TPS are 
payable  quarterly  on  March  17,  June  17,  September  17,  and  December  17  of  each  year  that  the  TPS  are  outstanding.  The 
trustee for the TPS holders is U.S. Bank, N.A.. The trustee does not have the power to take enforcement action in the event of a 
default  under  the  TPS  for  five  years  from  the  date  of  default.  In  the  event  of  default,  however,  the  Company  would  be 
precluded from paying dividends until the default is cured. 

  On March 17, 2004, Exchange Statutory Trust I, a business trust and subsidiary of the Company issued $25.0 million of 
floating rate TPS to a TPS Pool. The floating rate is equal to the three-month LIBOR rate plus 2.70% and reprices quarterly 
(2.94% at December 31, 2013). The TPS are fully, irrevocably, and unconditionally guaranteed on a subordinated basis by the 
Company. The proceeds of the TPS were invested in junior subordinated debentures of the Company. Distributions on the TPS 
are payable quarterly on March 17, June 17, September 17, and December 17 of each year that the TPS are outstanding. The 
TPS mature on March 17, 2034. That maturity date may be shortened if certain conditions are met.   

The Exchange Statutory Trusts are not consolidated in the Company’s financial statements. Accordingly, the Company 
does not report the securities issued by the Exchange Statutory Trusts as liabilities, and instead reports the subordinated notes 
issued by the Company and held by the Exchange Statutory Trusts as liabilities. The amount of the subordinated notes as of 
December  31,  2013  and  2012  was  $49.5  million,  respectively.  The  Company  has  recorded  the  investments  in  the  common 
securities  issued  by  the  Exchange  Statutory  Trusts  aggregating  $1.5  million,  and  the  corresponding  obligations  under  the 
subordinated notes, as well as the interest income and interest expense on such investments and obligations in its consolidated 
financial statements.

The  ultimate  realization  of  deferred  tax  assets  is  dependent  upon  the  generation  of  future  taxable  income  during  the 
periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax 
liabilities,  projected  future  taxable  income,  and  tax  planning  strategies  in  making  this  assessment.  Based  upon  the  level  of 
historical  taxable  income  and  projections  for  future  taxable  income  over  the  periods  in  which  the  deferred  tax  assets  are

deductible, management believes it is more likely than not the Company will realize the benefits of these temporary differences 
at December 31, 2013 and, therefore, did not establish a valuation reserve. 

At December 31, 2013, the accumulation of prior years’ earnings representing tax bad debt deductions of the Bank was 
$2.9 million. If these tax bad debt reserves were charged for losses other than bad debt losses, the Bank would be required to 
recognize taxable income in the amount of the charge. It is not contemplated that such tax-restricted retained earnings will be 
used in a manner that would create federal income tax liabilities.  

The Company follows ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which addresses the accounting for uncertain tax positions. As a 
result of the lapse of the statue of limitations for the 2007 tax year, the Company recognized $340,351 of gross unrecognized 
tax benefits and $30,969 of accrued interest which resulted in a decrease in the effective tax rate for the year ended December 
31, 2011. As of December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively, the Company did not have any uncertain tax provisions. 

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of the unrecognized tax benefits is as follows: 

Unrecognized tax benefits as of January 1,
Gross amounts of the increases and decreases in unrecognized

tax benefits as a result of tax positions taken during prior years

Gross amounts of the increases and decreases in unrecognized
tax benefits as a result of tax positions taken during year

relating to settlements with taxing authorities

The Company’s profit-sharing plan includes a matching 401k portion, in which the Company matches the first 3% of 
eligible  employee  contributions.  The Company made  annual  contributions  in an amount  up to  6%  of  income  before  income 
taxes  and  before  contributions  to  the  profit-sharing  and  pension  plans  for  all  participants,  limited  to  the  maximum  amount 
deductible for federal income tax purposes, for each of the periods shown. In addition, employees were able to make additional 
tax-deferred contributions.  

Pension  

The  Company  provides  a  noncontributory  defined  benefit  pension plan  for  all  full-time  employees.  An employer  is 
required to recognize the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its balance sheet and to 
recognize  changes  in  that  funded  status  in  the  year  in  which  the  changes  occur  through  comprehensive  income.  Under  the 
Company’s  funding policy for the defined benefit pension plan, contributions are made to a trust as necessary to provide for 
current service and for any unfunded accrued actuarial liabilities over a reasonable period. To the extent that these requirements 
are fully covered by assets in the trust, a contribution might not be made in a particular year. The Company has not made any 
contributions to the defined benefit plan for the current plan year. The minimum required contribution for the 2014 plan year is 
estimated to be $1.3 million. The Company has not determined whether it will make any contributions other than the minimum 
required funding contribution for 2014.

The  estimated  prior  service  cost  for  the  defined  benefit  pension  plan  that  will  be  amortized  from  accumulated  other 
comprehensive  income  into net  periodic  cost  in  2014 is $79,000.  During  2014, $30,000  is the  estimated  amount  of  actuarial 
loss subject to amortization into net periodic pension cost.  

Assumptions  utilized  to  determine  benefit  obligations  as  of  December 31,  2013,  2012  and  2011  and  to  determine 

pension expense for the years then ended are as follows: 

Determination of benefit obligation at year end:

The assumed overall expected long-term rate of return on pension plan assets used in calculating 2013 pension expense 
was  7.0%.  Determination  of  the  plan’s rate  of  return  is  based  upon  historical returns  for  equities  and  fixed  income  indexes. 
During the past five years, the Company’s plan assets have experienced the following annual returns: 19.1% in 2013, 11.4% in 
2012, 0.1% in 2011, 12.4% in 2010, and 22.0% in 2009. The rate used in plan calculations may be adjusted by management for 
current  trends  in  the  economic  environment.  With  a  traditional  investment  mix  of  over  half  of  the  plan’s  investments  in 
equities, the actual return for any one plan year may fluctuate significantly with changes in the stock market. Due to a decrease 
in discount rates used in the actuarial calculation of plan income, the Company expects to incur $945,000 of expense in 2014 
compared to $1.2 million in 2013. 

Plan Assets 

The investment policy of the pension plan is designed for growth in value while minimizing risk to the overall portfolio. 
The Company diversifies the assets through investments in domestic and international fixed income securities and domestic and 
international equity securities. The assets are readily marketable and can be sold to  fund benefit payment obligations as they 
become payable. The Company’s long-term investment target mix for the plan is 70% equity securities and 30% fixed income. 
The Company regularly reviews its policies on the investment mix and may make changes depending on economic conditions 
and perceived investment mix.

(13)  Preferred Stock 

On December 19, 2008, the Company announced its participation in the U.S. Treasury Department’s Capital Purchase 
Program (CPP), a voluntary program that provides capital to  financially healthy banks. This program was designed to attract 
broad participation by banking institutions to help stabilize the financial system by encouraging lending.  

Participating in this  program  included  the  Company’s  issuance  of  30,255  shares  of  senior  preferred  stock  (with  a  par 
value of $1,000 per share) and a ten year warrant to purchase approximately 287,133 shares of common stock (see below for 
additional information)  to  the  U.S.  Department  of  Treasury  in  exchange  for  $30.3  million.  On  May  9,  2012,  the  Company 
redeemed  12,000  shares  of  preferred  stock  from  the  U.S.  Department  of  Treasury  by  repaying  $12.0  million  of  the  $30.3 
million CPP funds along with $140,000 of accrued and unpaid dividends on the shares redeemed. Related to these shares was 
an  additional  $300,000  of  accretion  that  was  recognized  at  the  time  of  the  redemption.  On  May  15,  2013,  the  Company 
redeemed the remaining 18,255 shares of preferred stock from the U.S. Department of Treasury by repaying the $18.3 million 
of the CPP funds along with $228,187 of accrued and unpaid dividends on the shares redeemed. Related to these shares was an 
additional $182,209 of accretion that was recognized at the time of the redemption. 

The common stock warrant was repurchased by the Company on June 11, 2013 pursuant to a letter agreement between 
the Treasury and the Company for a total repurchase price of $540,000, or $1.88 per warrant share. The repurchase price was 
based on the fair market value of the warrant as agreed upon by the Company and the Treasury. The repurchase of the warrant 
ends the Company’s participation in the U.S Treasury Department’s CPP. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company 
had declared and paid $456,000 of dividends and recognized $278,000 of accretion of the discount on preferred stock.

(14)  Earnings per Share 

Basic  earnings  per  share  is  computed  by  dividing  income  available  to  common  shareholders  by  the  weighted  average 
number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common 
shares  that  were  outstanding during  the  year. The calculations  of  basic  and  diluted  earnings  per  share  are  as  follows  for  the 
years indicated:

Under  the  treasury  stock  method,  outstanding  stock  options  are  dilutive  when  the  average  market  price  of  the 
Company’s common stock, when combined with the effect of any unamortized compensation expense, exceeds the option price 
during  the  period,  except  when  the  Company  has  a  loss  from  continuing  operations  available  to  common  shareholders.  In 
addition, proceeds from the assumed exercise of dilutive options along with the related tax benefit are assumed to be used to 
repurchase common shares at the average market price of such stock during the period.  

The following options to purchase shares during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 were not included 
in the respective computations of diluted earnings per share because the exercise price of the option, when combined with the 
effect of  the  unamortized  compensation expense,  was  greater than  the average market  price  of  the common  shares  and were 
considered anti-dilutive.

(15)  Capital Requirements 

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

Quantitative  measures  established  by  regulations  to  ensure  capital  adequacy  require  the  Company  and  the  Bank  to 
maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total and Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets, and of 
Tier I capital to adjusted-average assets. Management believes, as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company and the Bank 
met all capital adequacy requirements. 

As  of  December 31,  2013,  the  most  recent  notification  from  the  regulatory  authorities  categorized  the  bank  as  well- 
capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well-capitalized, the Bank must 
maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions 
or events since the notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s categories.

(16)  Fair Value Measurements 

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain financial and nonfinancial assets 
and  liabilities.  The  FASB  ASC  Topic  820,  Fair  Value  Measurements  and  Disclosures,  defines  fair  value,  establishes  a 
framework for the measurement of fair value, and enhances disclosures about  fair value measurements. The standard applies 
whenever other standards require (permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair 
value  in  any  new  circumstances.  In  this  standard,  FASB  clarified  the  principle  that  fair  value  should  be  based  on  the 
assumptions  market  participants  would  use  when  pricing  the  asset  or  liability.  In  support  of  this  principle,  the  standard 
establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. As of December 31, 2013 
and 2012, respectively, there were no transfers into or out of Levels 1-3. 

The fair value hierarchy is as follows: 

Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. 

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly 
or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, such as interest rates 
and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. 

Level  3  –  Inputs  are  unobservable  inputs  for  the  asset  or  liability  and  significant  to  the  fair  value.  These  may  be 
internally developed using the Company’s best information and assumptions that a market participant would consider.  

ASC Topic 820 also provides guidance on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or 
liability  have  significantly  decreased  and  on  identifying  circumstances  when  a  transaction  may  not  be  considered 
orderly. 

The Company is required to disclose assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis separate from those 
measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Nonfinancial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis would 
include  foreclosed  real  estate,  long-lived  assets,  and  core  deposit  intangible  assets,  which  are  reviewed  when 
circumstances or other events indicate that impairment may have occurred.   

Valuation methods for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis 

Following  is  a  description  of  the  Company’s  valuation  methodologies  used  for  assets  and  liabilities  recorded  at  fair 
value on a recurring basis: 

Available-for-sale securities 

The  fair value  measurements of  the  Company’s  investment  securities  are  determined  by  a  third  party  pricing  service 
which  considers  observable  data that may  include  dealer quotes,  market  spreads,  cash  flows,  the  U.S.  Treasury  yield 
curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s 
terms  and  conditions,  among  other  things.  The  fair  value  measurements  are  subject  to  independent  verification  to 
another  pricing  source  by management  each  quarter  for  reasonableness.  Securities classified  as  available-for-sale  are 
reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs.  

Mortgage servicing rights  

The  fair  value of  mortgage  servicing rights  is  based  on  the discounted  value  of  estimated  future  cash  flows utilizing 
contractual cash flows, servicing rate, constant prepayment rate, servicing cost, and discount rate factors. Accordingly, 
the fair value is estimated based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing 
income.  The  model  incorporates  assumptions  that  market  participants  use  in  estimating  future  net  servicing  income, 
including estimates of prepayment speeds, market discount rates, cost to service, float earnings rates, and other ancillary 
income, including late fees. The valuation models estimate the present value of estimated future net servicing income. 
The Company classifies its servicing rights as Level 3.

Valuation methods for instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis 

Following is a description of the Company’s  valuation methodologies used  for assets and liabilities recorded at fair 
value on a nonrecurring basis: 

Impaired Loans 

The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis other than loans that are considered impaired. 
The net carrying value of impaired loans is generally based on fair values of the underlying collateral obtained through 
independent  appraisals  or internal evaluations,  or  by  discounting  the total  expected  future  cash  flows.  Once the  fair 
value  of  the  collateral  has  been  determined  and  any  impairment  amount  calculated,  a  specific  reserve  allocation  is 
made. Because many of these inputs are not observable, the measurements are classified as Level 3. As of December 
31, 2013, the Company identified $16.3 million in impaired loans that had specific allowances for losses aggregating 
$4.8 million. Related to these loans, there was $3.2 million in charge-offs recorded during the year ended December 
31,  2013.  As  of  December  31,  2012,  the  Company  identified  $24.6  million  in  impaired  loans  that  had  specific

allowances for losses aggregating $4.0 million. Related to these loans, there was $5.2 million in charge-offs recorded 
during the year ended December 31, 2012. 

Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Assets 

Other  real  estate  owned  and  repossessed  assets  consisted  of  loan  collateral  that  has  been  repossessed  through 
foreclosure.  This  collateral  comprises  of  commercial  and  residential  real  estate  and  other  non-real  estate  property, 
including autos, manufactured homes, and construction equipment. Other real estate owned assets are recorded as held 
for  sale  initially  at  the  lower  of  the  loan  balance  or  fair  value  of  the  collateral  less  estimated  selling  costs.  The 
Company relies on external appraisals and assessment of property values by internal staff. In the case of non-real estate 
collateral,  reliance  is  placed  on  a  variety  of  sources,  including  external  estimates  of  value  and  judgment  based  on 
experience and expertise of internal specialists. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically, and the 
assets  may  be  written  down  to  reflect  a  new  cost  basis.  Because  many  of  these  inputs  are  not  observable,  the 
measurements are classified as Level 3.

(17)  Fair Value of Financial Instruments 

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for 

which it is practicable to estimate such value: 

Loans 

The  fair  values  of  loans  are  estimated by  discounting the  expected  future  cash  flows  using  the  current rates  at  which 
similar  loans  could  be  made  to  borrowers  with  similar  credit  ratings  and  for  the  same  remaining  maturities. The  net 
carrying  amount  of  impaired  loans  is  generally  based  on  the  fair  values  of  collateral  obtained  through  independent 
appraisals or internal evaluations, or by discounting the total expected future cash flows. This method of estimating fair 
value does not incorporate the exit-price concept of fair value prescribed by ASC Topic 820. 

Investment Securities 

A  detailed  description  of  the  fair  value measurement  of  the  debt  instruments  in  the  available-for-sale  sections  of  the 
investment  security  portfolio  is  provided  in  the  Fair  Value  Measurement  section  above.  A  schedule  of  investment 
securities by category and maturity is provided in the notes on Investment Securities. 

Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) Stock  

Ownership  of  equity securities  of  FHLB is  restricted  and  there  is no  established  market  for their resale. The  carrying 
amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. 

Federal Funds Sold, Cash, and Due from Banks 

The  carrying  amounts  of  short-term  federal  funds  sold  and  securities  purchased  under  agreements  to  resell,  interest 
earning  deposits  with  banks,  and  cash and  due  from  banks  approximate  fair  value.  Federal  funds  sold  and  securities 
purchased under agreements to resell classified as short-term generally mature in 90 days or less.  

Mortgage Servicing Rights 

The  fair value  of  mortgage  servicing rights  is  based  on  the  discounted  value  of  estimated future  cash  flows utilizing 
contractual cash flows, servicing rate, constant prepayment rate, servicing cost, and discount rate factors. Accordingly, 
the fair value is estimated based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing 
income.  The  model  incorporates  assumptions  that  market  participants  use  in  estimating  future  net  servicing  income, 
including estimates of prepayment speeds, market discount rates, cost to service, float earnings rates, and other ancillary 
income, including late fees. 

Cash Surrender Value –Life Insurance 

The  fair  value  of  Bank  owned  life  insurance  (BOLI)  approximates  the  carrying  amount.  Upon  liquidation  of  these 
investments, the Company would receive the cash surrender value which equals the carrying amount. 

Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable 

For accrued interest receivable and payable, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of  fair value because  of the 
short maturity for these financial instruments. 

Deposits 

The  fair value  of  deposits  with no  stated  maturity,  such  as  noninterest-bearing  demand,  NOW accounts,  savings,  and 
money market, is equal to the amount payable  on demand. The fair value of time deposits is based  on the discounted 
value of contractual cash flows. The discount rate is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar 
remaining maturities.

Securities Sold under Agreements to Repurchase and Interest-bearing Demand Notes to U.S. Treasury 

For  securities  sold  under  agreements  to  repurchase  and  interest-bearing  demand  notes  to  U.S. Treasury,  the  carrying 
amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value, as such instruments reprice in a short time period. 

Subordinated Notes and Other Borrowings 

The fair value of subordinated notes and other borrowings is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows. 
The  discount  rate  is  estimated  using  the  rates  currently  offered  for  other  borrowed  money  of  similar  remaining 
maturities.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments 

The fair value of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to 
enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements, the likelihood of the counterparties 
drawing on such financial instruments, and the present creditworthiness of such counterparties. The Company believes such 
commitments have been made on terms that are competitive in the markets in which it operates. 

Limitations 

The  fair  value  estimates  provided  are  made  at  a  point  in  time  based  on  market  information  and  information  about  the 
financial instruments. Because no market exists for a portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are 
based  on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of  various 
financial  instruments,  and  other  factors.  These  estimates  are  subjective  in  nature  and  involve  uncertainties  and matters  of 
significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect 
the fair value estimates.

(18)  Repurchase Reserve Liability  

The Company’s repurchase reserve liability for estimated losses incurred on sold loans that are included in gain on 
sales of mortgage loans was $160,000 at December 31, 2013. This liability represents management’s estimate of the potential 
repurchase or  make-whole liability for  residential mortgage  loans  originated  for  sale  that may  arise  from  representation  and 
warranty claims that could relate to a variety of issues, including but not limited to, misrepresentation of facts, appraisal issues, 
or  program  requirements  that  may  not  meet  investor  guidelines. Although  the  Company  has  not  experienced  any  historical 
repurchase losses, it was notified during the third quarter of 2013 by one of its two investors, Freddie Mac, that fifteen loans 
which were foreclosed upon from 2007 to the present, are being reviewed for quality control purposes and may result in loss 
indemnification  payments  to  the investor  as reimbursement  for  losses. The  balance  of  these  loans  at  foreclosure  date  totaled 
$1.5  million.  During  the  fourth  quarter  of  2013  and  through  March  31,  2014,  the  Company  settled  these  loan  foreclosures 
resulting in payments totaling $119,000 for reimbursement of costs incurred by Freddie Mac on three of these foreclosures. The 
remaining twelve foreclosures were settled without incurring any additional costs. At December 31, 2013, the Company  was 
servicing 3,114 loans sold to the secondary market with a balance of approximately $322.5 million compared to 3,057 loans 
sold with a balance of approximately $310.6 million at December 31, 2012. 

(19)  Commitments and Contingencies 

The Company issues  financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business of meeting the 
financing  needs  of  its  customers.  These  financial  instruments  include  commitments  to  extend  credit  and  standby  letters  of 
credit. These  instruments may  involve,  to  varying  degrees, elements  of  credit  and  interest rate risk  in  excess  of  the  amounts 
recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.  

The Company’s extent of involvement and maximum potential exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by 
the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the 
contractual amount of these instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional 
obligations as it does for financial instruments included on its consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2013, no amounts 
have been accrued for any estimated losses for these financial instruments. 

The contractual amount of off-balance-sheet financial instruments as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, is as follows: 

(in thousands)
Commitments to extend credit
Commitments to originate residential first and second mortgage loans
Standby letters of credit

Commitments 

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 certain of the commitments and letters of credit are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the 
total  commitment  amounts  do  not  necessarily  represent  future  cash  requirements.  The Company  evaluates  each  customer’s 
creditworthiness  on  a  case-by-case  basis.  The  amount  of  collateral  obtained,  if  deemed  necessary  by  the  Company  upon 
extension  of  credit,  is  based  on  management’s  credit  evaluation  of  the  customer.  Collateral  held  varies,  but  may  include 
accounts receivable, inventory, furniture and equipment, and real estate. 

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a 
third party. These standby letters of credit are primarily issued to support contractual obligations of the Company’s customers. 
The approximate remaining term of standby letters of credit range from one month to five years at December 31, 2013.

Pending Litigation 

The Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in various legal actions incidental to the Company’s past and current 
business  activities.  Based  on  the  Company’s  analysis,  and  considering  the  inherent  uncertainties  associated  with  litigation, 
management  does  not  believe  that  it  is  reasonably  possible  that  these  legal  actions  will  materially  adversely  affect  the 
Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations in the near term. The Company records a loss accrual for 
all legal matters for which it deems a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Some legal matters, which are at early 
stages in the legal process, have not yet progressed to the point where a loss amount can be estimated.

The  board  of  directors intends  that  the  Company  will  continue  to  pay  quarterly  dividends.  The  actual amount  of 
quarterly dividends and the payment, as well as the amount, of any special dividend ultimately will depend on the 
payment of sufficient dividends by the subsidiary Bank to the Company. The payment by the Bank of dividends to 
the Company will depend upon such factors as the Bank’s financial condition, results of operations and current and 
anticipated cash needs, including capital requirements.

Stock Performance Graph   

The  following  performance  graph  shows  a  comparison  of  cumulative  total  returns  for  the  Company,  the  Nasdaq 
Stock Market (U.S. Companies), and a peer index of financial institutions having total assets of between $1 billion 
and $5 billion for the period from December 31, 2008, through December 31, 2013. The cumulative total return on 
investment for each of the periods for the Company, the Nasdaq Stock Market (U.S. Companies) and the peer index 
is  based  on  the stock  price  or  index at  December  31,  2008.  The  performance  graph assumes  that  the  value  of  an 
investment in the Company’s common stock and each index was $100 at December 31, 2008 and that all dividends 
were reinvested. The information presented in the performance graph is historical in nature and is not intended to 
represent or guarantee future returns.
