Bank Restructuring
The restructuring of our retail operations at both Jersey Shore State 
Bank and Luzerne Bank will offer a more customer centric environment 
supported by regional leadership to effectively move our programs forward.  
Specifically, this restructure will support our targets for organic growth, 
footprint expansion and deposit and loan growth.

As a company, we understand that we face significant challenges as does 
the entire financial services industry.  With plans in place, system upgrades, 
well trained and passionate employees, we look forward to taking on the 
challenge of 2014 which includes the integration of Luzerne Bank into the 
Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. family.

Thank you for your decision to invest and support PWB.

Sincerely, 

Richard A. Grafmyre, CFP®
President & CEO

common stock.  This transaction was approved by the shareholders of the JSSB on April 11, 1983 and was effective on July 12, 
1983.  On June 1, 2013 the Company acquired Luzerne Bank ("Luzerne") with Luzerne operating as a subsidiary of the Company 
(JSSB and Luzerne, collectively referred to as the "Banks").  The Company’s two other wholly-owned subsidiaries are Woods 
Real Estate Development Company, Inc. and Woods Investment Company, Inc.  The Company’s business has consisted primarily 
of managing and supervising the Banks, and its principal source of income has been dividends paid by the Banks and Woods 
Investment Company, Inc.

The Banks are engaged in commercial and retail banking which includes the acceptance of time, savings, and demand deposits, 
the funding of commercial, consumer, and mortgage loans, and safe deposit services.  Utilizing a branch office network, ATMs, 
Internet, and telephone banking delivery channels, the Banks deliver their products and services to the communities they reside 
in.

In October 2000, JSSB acquired The M Group, Inc. D/B/A The Comprehensive Financial Group (“The M Group”). The M Group, 
which operates as a subsidiary of JSSB, offers insurance and securities brokerage services. Securities are offered by The M Group 
through ING Financial Partners, Inc., a registered broker-dealer.

Neither the Company nor the Banks anticipate that compliance with environmental laws and regulations will have any material 
effect on capital expenditures, earnings, or on its competitive position.  The Banks are not dependent on a single customer or a 
few customers, the loss of whom would have a material effect on the business of the Banks.

JSSB employed 207 persons while Luzerne employed 84 persons as of December 31, 2013 in either a full-time or part-time 
capacity.  The Company does not have any employees.  The principal officers of the Banks also serve as officers of the Company.

Woods Investment Company, Inc., a Delaware holding company, maintains an investment portfolio that is managed for total return 
and to fund dividend payments to the Company.

Woods Real Estate Development Company, Inc. serves the Company through its acquisition and ownership of certain properties 
utilized by the Bank.

B. Regulation and Supervision

The Company is a registered bank holding company (that has made an election to be treated as a financial holding company) and, 
as such is subject to the provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHCA”) and to supervision and 
examination by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “FRB”).  The Banks are also subject to the supervision 
and examination by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”), as their primary federal regulator and as the insurer 
of the Banks' deposits.  The Banks are also regulated and examined by the Pennsylvania Department of Banking (the “Department”).

The insurance activities of The M Group are subject to regulation by the insurance departments of the various states in which The 
M Group, conducts business including principally the Pennsylvania Department of Insurance. The securities brokerage activities 
of The M Group are subject to regulation by federal and state securities commissions.

The FRB has issued regulations under the BHCA that require a bank holding company to serve as a source of financial and 
managerial strength to its subsidiary banks.  As a result, the FRB, pursuant to such regulations, may require the Company to stand 
ready to use its resources to provide adequate capital funds to the Banks during periods of financial stress or adversity.  The BHCA 
requires the Company to secure the prior approval of the FRB before it can acquire all or substantially all of the assets of any 
bank, or acquire ownership or control of 5% or more of any voting shares of any bank.  Such a transaction would also require 
approval of the Department.

A bank holding company is prohibited under the BHCA from engaging in, or acquiring direct or indirect control of, more than 
5% of the voting shares of any company engaged in non-banking activities unless the FRB, by order or regulation, has found such 
12

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
activities to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto.  Under the BHCA, 
the FRB has the authority to require a bank holding company to terminate any activity or relinquish control of a non-bank subsidiary 
(other than a non-bank subsidiary of a bank) upon the FRB’s determination that such activity or control constitutes a serious risk 
to the financial soundness and stability of any bank subsidiary of the bank holding company.

Bank holding companies are required to comply with the FRB’s risk-based capital guidelines.  The risk-based capital rules are 
designed to make regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profiles among banks and bank holding 
companies and to minimize disincentives for holding liquid assets.  Currently, the required minimum ratio of total capital to risk-
weighted assets (including certain off-balance sheet activities, such as standby letters of credit) is 8%.  At least half of the total 
capital is required to be Tier 1 capital, consisting principally of common shareholders’ equity, less certain intangible assets. The 
remainder (“Tier 2 capital”) may consist of certain preferred stock, a limited amount of subordinated debt, certain hybrid capital 
instruments and other debt securities, 45% of net unrealized gains on marketable equity securities, and a limited amount of the 
general  loan  loss  allowance.   The  risk-based  capital  guidelines  are  required  to  take  adequate  account  of  interest  rate  risk, 
concentration of credit risk, and risks of nontraditional activities.

In addition to the risk-based capital guidelines, the FRB requires each bank holding company to comply with the leverage ratio, 
under which the bank holding company must maintain a minimum level of Tier 1 capital to average total consolidated assets of 
3%  for  those  bank  holding  companies  which  have  the  highest  regulatory  examination  ratings  and  are  not  contemplating  or 
experiencing significant growth or expansion.  All other bank holding companies are expected to maintain a leverage ratio of at 
least 4% to 5%. The Banks are subject to similar capital requirements adopted by the FDIC.

Dividends

Federal and state laws impose limitations on the payment of dividends by the Banks.  The Pennsylvania Banking Code restricts 
the availability of capital funds for payment of dividends by the Banks to their additional paid-in capital.

In addition to the dividend restrictions described above, the banking regulators have the authority to prohibit or to limit the payment 
of dividends by the Banks if, in the banking regulator’s opinion, payment of a dividend would constitute an unsafe or unsound 
practice in light of the financial condition of the Banks.

Under Pennsylvania law, the Company may not pay a dividend, if, after giving effect thereto, it would be unable to pay its debts 
as they become due in the usual course of business and, after giving effect to the dividend, the total assets of the Company would 
be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed, if the Company were to be dissolved at the time 
of distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of shareholders whose rights are superior to those receiving the 
dividend.

It is also the policy of the FRB that a bank holding company generally only pay dividends on common stock out of net income 
available to common shareholders over the past year and only if the prospective rate of earnings retention appears consistent with 
a bank holding company’s capital needs, asset quality, and overall financial condition.  In the current financial and economic 
environment, the FRB has indicated that bank holding companies should carefully review their dividend policy and has discouraged 
dividend pay-out ratios at the 100% level unless both asset quality and capital are very strong.  A bank holding company also 
should  not  maintain  a  dividend  level  that  places  undue  pressure  on  the  capital  of  such  institution’s  subsidiaries,  or  that  may 
undermine the bank holding company’s ability to serve as a source of strength for such subsidiaries.

In July 2013, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted revisions to the agencies’ capital adequacy guidelines and prompt 
corrective action rules, which were designed to enhance such requirements and implement the revised standards of the Basel 
Committee on Banking Supervision, commonly referred to as Basel III. The final rules generally implement higher minimum 
capital requirements, add a new common equity tier 1 capital requirement, and establish criteria that instruments must meet to be 
considered common equity tier 1 capital, additional tier 1 capital or tier 2 capital. The new minimum capital to risk-adjusted assets 
requirements are a common equity tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5% (6.5% to be considered “well capitalized”) and a tier 1 capital ratio 
of 6.0%, increased from 4.0% (and increased from 6.0% to 8.0% to be considered “well capitalized”); the total capital ratio remains 
at 8.0% under the new rules (10.0% to be considered “well capitalized”). Under the new rules, in order to avoid limitations on 
capital distributions (including dividend payments and certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers), a banking 
organization must hold a capital conservation buffer comprised of common equity tier 1 capital above its minimum risk-based 
capital requirements in an amount greater than 2.5% of total risk-weighted assets. The new minimum capital requirements are 
effective on January 1, 2015. The capital contribution buffer requirements phase in over a three-year period beginning January 1, 
2016.

C. Regulation of the Banks

The Banks are highly regulated by the FDIC and the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities.  The laws that such 
agencies enforce limit the specific types of businesses in which the Banks may engage, and the products and services that the 
Banks may offer to customers.  Generally, these limitations are designed to protect the insurance fund of the FDIC and/or the 
customers of the Banks, and not the Banks or its shareholders.  From time to time, various types of new federal and state legislation 
have been proposed that could result in additional regulation of, and restrictions of, the business of the Banks. It cannot be predicted 
whether any such legislation will be adopted or how such legislation would affect business of the Banks.  As a consequence of 
the extensive regulation of commercial banking activities in the United States, the Banks' business is particularly susceptible to 
being affected by federal legislation and regulations that may increase the costs of doing business.  Some of the major regulatory 
provisions that affect the business of the Banks are discussed briefly below.

Prompt Corrective Action

The FDIC has specified the levels at which an insured institution will be considered “well-capitalized,” “adequately capitalized,” 
“undercapitalized,” and “critically undercapitalized.” In the event an institution’s capital deteriorates to the “undercapitalized” 
category or below, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (the “FDIA”) and FDIC regulations prescribe an increasing amount of 
regulatory intervention, including: (1) the institution of a capital restoration plan by a bank and a guarantee of the plan by a parent 
institution and liability for civil money damages for failure to fulfill its commitment on that guarantee; and (2) the placement of 
a  hold  on  increases  in  assets,  number  of  branches,  or  lines  of  business.   If  capital  has  reached  the  significantly  or  critically 
undercapitalized  levels,  further  material  restrictions  can  be  imposed,  including  restrictions  on  interest  payable  on  accounts, 
dismissal of management and (in critically undercapitalized situations) appointment of a receiver.  For well-capitalized institutions, 
the FDIA provides authority for regulatory intervention where the institution is deemed to be engaging in unsafe or unsound 
practices or receives a less than satisfactory examination report rating for asset quality, management, earnings or liquidity.

Deposit Insurance

The FDIC maintains the DIF by assessing depository institutions an insurance premium. The amount each institution was assessed 
is based upon a variety of factors that included the balance of insured deposits as well as the degree of risk the institution possessed 
to the insurance fund.  As a result of the enactment of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, the FDIC temporarily 
increased the amount of deposits it insures from $100,000 to $250,000. This increase has been made permanent. The Banks paid 
an insurance premium into the DIF based on the quarterly average daily deposit liabilities net of certain exclusions. The FDIC 
used a risk-based premium system that assessed higher rates on those institutions that posed a greater risk to the DIF. The rate for 
each institution within a risk category was adjusted depending upon different factors that either enhance or reduce the risk the 
institution poses to the DIF, including the unsecured debt, secured liabilities and brokered deposits related to each institution. 
Finally, certain risk multipliers were applied to the adjusted assessment.

Beginning with the second quarter of 2011, as mandated by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act 
(the “Dodd-Frank Act”), the assessment base that the FDIC uses to calculate assessment premiums became a bank’s average assets 
minus average tangible equity.  As the asset base of the banking industry is larger than the deposit base, the range of assessment 
rates will change to a low or 2.5 basis points to a high of 45 basis points, per $100 of assets; however, the dollar amount of the 
actual premiums is expected to be roughly the same.

The FDIC is required under the Dodd-Frank Act to establish assessment rates that will allow the Deposit Insurance Fund to achieve 
a reserve ratio of 1.35% of Insurance Fund insured deposits by September 2020.  In addition, the FDIC has established a “designated 
reserve ratio” of 2.0%, a target ratio that, until it is achieved, will not likely result in the FDIC reducing assessment rates.  In 
attempting to achieve the mandated 1.35% ratio, the FDIC is required to implement assessment formulas that charge banks over 
$10 billion in asset size more than banks under that size.  Those new formulas began in the second quarter of 2011, but did not 
affect the Banks.  Under the Dodd-Frank Act, the FDIC is authorized to make reimbursements from the insurance fund to banks 
if the reserve ratio exceeds 1.50%, but the FDIC has adopted the “designated reserve ratio” of 2.0% and has announced that any 
reimbursements from the fund are indefinitely suspended.

Federal Home Loan Bank System

The Banks are a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (the “FHLB”), which is one of 12 regional Federal Home 
Loan Banks. Each Federal Home Loan Bank serves as a reserve or central bank for its members within its assigned region.  It is 
funded primarily from funds deposited by member institutions and proceeds from the sale of consolidated obligations of the Federal 
Home Loan Bank System. It makes loans to members (i.e., advances) in accordance with policies and procedures established by 
the board of directors of the Federal Home Loan Bank.  At December 31, 2013, the Banks had $85,075,000 in FHLB advances.
14

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
As a member, the Banks are required to purchase and maintain stock in the FHLB in an amount equal to the greater of 1% of its 
aggregate unpaid residential mortgage loans, home purchase contracts or similar obligations at the beginning of each year or 5% 
of its outstanding advances from the FHLB.  At December 31, 2013, the Banks had $5,668,000 in stock of the FHLB which was 
in compliance with this requirement.

Other Legislation

The Dodd-Frank Act was enacted on July 21, 2010.  This new law will significantly change the current bank regulatory structure 
and affect the lending, deposit, investment, trading and operating activities of financial institutions and their holding companies.  
The Dodd-Frank Act requires various federal agencies to adopt a broad range of new rules and regulations, and to prepare various 
studies and reports for Congress.  The federal agencies are given significant discretion in drafting such rules and regulations, and 
consequently, many of the details and much of the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act may not be known for some time.

Certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act are expected to have a near term impact on the Company. For example, effective July 21, 
2011, a provision of the Dodd-Frank Act eliminated the federal prohibitions on paying interest on demand deposits, thus allowing 
businesses to have interest bearing checking accounts. Depending on competitive responses, this significant change to existing 
law could have an adverse impact on the Company’s interest expense.

The Dodd-Frank Act also broadens the base for FDIC insurance assessments. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, the assessment base 
will no longer be an institution’s deposit base, but rather its average consolidated total assets less its average tangible equity during 
the assessment period.  The Dodd-Frank Act also permanently increased the maximum amount of deposit insurance for banks, 
savings institutions and credit unions to $250,000 per depositor, retroactive to January 1, 2008.

Bank and thrift holding companies with assets of less than $15 billion as of December 31, 2009, such as the Company, will be 
permitted to include trust preferred securities that were issued before May 19, 2010, as Tier 1 capital; however, trust preferred 
securities issued by a bank or thrift holding company (other than those with assets of less than $500 million) after May 19, 2010, 
will no longer count as Tier 1 capital. Trust preferred securities still will be entitled to be treated as Tier 2 capital.

The Dodd-Frank Act requires publicly traded companies to give shareholders a non-binding vote on executive compensation and 
so-called “golden parachute” arrangements, and may allow greater access by shareholders to the company’s proxy material by 
authorizing the SEC to promulgate rules that would allow shareholders to nominate their own candidates using a company’s proxy 
materials. The  legislation  also  directs  the  FRB  to  promulgate  rules prohibiting  excessive  compensation  paid  to  bank  holding 
company executives, regardless of whether the company is publicly traded.

The Dodd-Frank Act creates a new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau with broad powers to supervise and enforce consumer 
protection  laws.  The  Consumer  Financial  Protection  Bureau  has  broad  rule-making  authority  for  a  wide  range  of  consumer 
protection laws that apply to all banks and savings institutions, including the authority to prohibit “unfair, deceptive or abusive” 
acts and practices. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has examination and enforcement authority over all banks and 
savings institutions with more than $10 billion in assets. Banks and savings institutions with $10 billion or less in assets such as 
the Bank will continue to be examined for compliance with the consumer laws by their primary bank regulators. The Dodd-Frank 
Act also weakens the federal preemption rules that have been applicable for national banks and federal savings associations, and 
gives state attorneys general the ability to enforce federal consumer protection laws.

It is difficult to predict at this time the specific impact the Dodd-Frank Act and the yet to be written implementing rules and 
regulations will have on community banks. Given the uncertainty associated with the manner in which the provisions of the Dodd-
Frank Act will be implemented by the various regulatory agencies and through regulations, the full extent of the impact such 
requirements will have on financial institutions’ operations is presently unclear. The changes resulting from the Dodd-Frank Act 
may impact the profitability of our business activities, require changes to certain of our business practices, impose upon us more 
stringent capital, liquidity and leverage ratio requirements or otherwise adversely affect our business. These changes may also 
require us to invest significant management attention and resources to evaluate and make necessary changes in order to comply 
with new statutory and regulatory requirements.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 was enacted to enhance penalties for accounting and auditing improprieties at publicly traded 
companies and to protect investors by improving the accuracy and reliability of corporate disclosures under the federal securities 
laws.  The Sarbanes-Oxley Act generally applies to all companies, including the Company, that file or are required to file periodic 
reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act.  The 
legislation includes provisions, among other things, governing the services that can be provided by a public company’s independent 
auditors and the procedures for approving such services, requiring the chief executive officer and principal accounting officer to 
15

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
certify certain matters relating to the company’s periodic filings under the Exchange Act, requiring expedited filings of reports by 
insiders of their securities transactions and containing other provisions relating to insider conflicts of interest, increasing disclosure 
requirements relating to critical financial accounting policies and their application, increasing penalties for securities law violations, 
and creating a new public accounting oversight board, a regulatory body subject to SEC jurisdiction with broad powers to set 
auditing, quality control, and ethics standards for accounting firms.  In response to the legislation, the national securities exchanges 
and NASDAQ have adopted new rules relating to certain matters, including the independence of members of a company’s audit 
committee as a condition to listing or continued listing.

Congress  is  often  considering  some  financial  industry  legislation,  and  the  federal  banking  agencies  routinely  propose  new 
regulations.  The Company cannot predict how any new legislation, or new rules adopted by federal or state banking agencies, 
may affect the business of the Company and its subsidiaries in the future.  Given that the financial industry remains under stress 
and severe scrutiny, and given that the U.S. economy has not yet fully recovered to pre-crisis levels of activity, the Company 
expects that there will be significant legislation and regulatory actions that may materially affect the banking industry for the 
foreseeable future.

Environmental Laws

Environmentally related hazards have become a source of high risk and potential liability for financial institutions relating to their 
loans. Environmentally contaminated properties owned by an institution’s borrowers may result in a drastic reduction in the value 
of the collateral securing the institution’s loans to such borrowers, high environmental clean up costs to the borrower affecting its 
ability to repay the loans, the subordination of any lien in favor of the institution to a state or federal lien securing clean up costs, 
and liability to the institution for clean up costs if it forecloses on the contaminated property or becomes involved in the management 
of the borrower. The Company is not aware of any borrower who is currently subject to any environmental investigation or clean 
up proceeding which is likely to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

Effect of Government Monetary Policies

The earnings of the Company are and will be affected by domestic economic conditions and the monetary and fiscal policies of 
the United States Government and its agencies.   The monetary policies of the FRB have had, and will likely continue to have, an 
important impact on the operating results of commercial banks through its power to implement national monetary policy in order, 
among other things, to curb inflation or combat a recession. The FRB has a major effect upon the levels of bank loans, investments, 
and deposits through its open market operations in the United States Government securities and through its regulation of, among 
other things, the discount rate on borrowing of member banks and the reserve requirements against member bank deposits.  It is 
not possible to predict the nature and impact of future changes in monetary and fiscal policies.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BANKS

History and Business

JSSB was incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania as a state bank in 1934 and became a wholly owned 
subsidiary of the Company on July 12, 1983.

As of December 31, 2013, JSSB had total assets of $886,428,000; total shareholders’ equity of $73,891,000; and total deposits of 
$681,172,000.  JSSB's deposits are insured by the FDIC for the maximum amount provided under current law.

Luzerne was acquired by the Company on June 1, 2013.  As of December 31, 2013, Luzerne had total assets of $346,161,000; 
total shareholders’ equity of $43,665,000; and total deposits of $295,570,000.  Luzerne's deposits are insured by the FDIC for the 
maximum amount provided under current law.

The Banks engage in business as commercial banks, doing business at locations in Lycoming, Clinton, Centre, Montour, and 
Luzerne Counties, Pennsylvania.  The Banks offer insurance, securities brokerage services, annuity and mutual fund investment 
products, and financial planning through the M Group.

Services offered by the Banks include accepting time, demand and savings deposits including Super NOW accounts, statement 
savings accounts, money market accounts, fixed rate certificates of deposit, and club accounts.  Their services also include making 
secured and unsecured business and consumer loans that include financing commercial transactions as well as construction and 
residential mortgage loans and revolving credit loans with overdraft protection.

16

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The Banks' loan portfolio mix can be classified into three principal categories.  These are commercial and agricultural, real estate, 
and consumer.  Real estate loans can be further segmented into residential, commercial, and construction.  Qualified borrowers 
are defined by policy and our underwriting standards. Owner provided equity requirements range from 0% to 30% with a first 
lien  status  required.  Terms  are  generally  restricted  to  between  10  and  30  years  with  the  exception  of  construction  and  land 
development, which are limited to one to five years.  Real estate appraisals, property construction verifications, and site visitations 
comply with policy and industry regulatory standards.

Prospective residential mortgage customer’s repayment ability is determined from information contained in the application and 
recent income tax returns.  Emphasis is on credit, employment, income, and residency verification.  Broad hazard insurance is 
always required and flood insurance where applicable.  In the case of construction mortgages, builders risk insurance is requested.

Agricultural loans for the purchase or improvement of real estate must meet the Banks' real estate underwriting criteria.  Agricultural 
loans made for the purchase of equipment are usually payable in five years, but never more than ten, depending upon the useful 
life of the purchased asset. Minimum borrower equity ranges from 0% to 20% depending on the purpose.  Livestock financing 
criteria depends upon the nature of the operation. Agricultural loans are also made for crop production purposes.  Such loans are 
structured to repay within the production cycle and not carried over into a subsequent year.

Commercial loans are made for the acquisition and improvement of real estate, purchase of equipment, and for working capital 
purposes on a seasonal or revolving basis.  General purpose working capital loans are also available with repayment expected 
within one year.  Equipment loans are generally amortized over three to ten years. Insurance coverage with the Banks as loss payee 
is required, especially in the case where the equipment is rolling stock.  It is also a general policy to collateralize non-real estate 
loans with the asset purchased and, dependant upon loan terms, junior liens are filed on other available assets.  Financial information 
required on all commercial mortgages includes the most current three years balance sheets and income statements and projections 
on income to be developed through the project. In the case of corporations and partnerships, the principals are often asked to 
personally guaranty the entity’s debt.

Seasonal and revolving lines of credit are offered for working capital purposes.  Collateral for such a loan may vary but often 
includes  the  pledge  of  inventory  and/or  receivables.   Drawing  availability  is  usually  50%  of  inventory  and  80%  of  eligible 
receivables.  Eligible receivables are defined as invoices less than 90 days delinquent.  Exclusive reliance is very seldom placed 
on such collateral; therefore, other lienable assets are also taken into the collateral pool.  Where reliance is placed on inventory 
and accounts receivable, the applicant must provide financial information including agings on a specified basis.  In addition, the 
guaranty of the principals is usually obtained.

Letter of Credit availability is usually limited to standbys where the customer is well known to the Banks.  The credit criteria is 
the same as that utilized in making a direct loan. Collateral is obtained in most cases.

Consumer loan products include residential mortgages, home equity loans and lines, automobile financing, personal loans and 
lines of credit, overdraft check lines, and PHEAA referral loans.  Our policy includes standards used in the industry on debt service 
ratios and terms are consistent with prudent underwriting standards and the use of proceeds. Verifications are made of employment 
and residency, along with credit history.

Second mortgages are confined to equity borrowing and home improvements.  Terms are generally fifteen years or less and rates 
are fixed.  Loan to collateral value criteria is 90% or less and verifications are made to determine values.   Automobile financing 
is generally restricted to five years and done on a direct basis.  The Banks, as a practice, do not floor plan and therefore do not 
discount dealer paper.  Small loan requests are to accommodate personal needs such as debt consolidation or the purchase of small 
appliances.  Overdraft check lines are usually limited to $5,000 or less.

The Banks' investment portfolios are analyzed and priced on a monthly basis. Investments are made in U.S. Treasuries, U.S. 
Agency issues, bank qualified tax-exempt municipal bonds, taxable municipal bonds, corporate bonds, and corporate stocks which 
consist of Pennsylvania bank stocks.  Bonds with BAA or better ratings are used, unless a local issue is purchased that has a lesser 
or no rating.  Factors taken into consideration when investments are purchased include liquidity, the Company’s tax position, tax 
equivalent yield, third party investment ratings, and the policies of the Asset/Liability Committee.

The banking environment in Lycoming, Clinton, Centre, Montour, and Luzerne Counties, Pennsylvania is highly competitive.  
The Banks operate twenty-one  full service offices in these markets and competes for loans and deposits with numerous commercial 
banks, savings and loan associations, and other financial institutions. The economic base of the region is developed around small 
business, health care, educational facilities (college and public schools), light manufacturing industries, and agriculture.

17

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The Banks have a relatively stable deposit base and no material amount of deposits is obtained from a single depositor or group 
of depositors, excluding public entities that account for approximately 15% of total deposits.  Although the Banks have regular 
opportunities to bid on pools of funds of $100,000 or more in the hands of municipalities, hospitals, and others, it does not rely 
on these monies to fund loans or intermediate or longer-term investments.

The Banks have not experienced any significant seasonal fluctuations in the amount of its deposits.

Supervision and Regulation

As referenced elsewhere, the banking business is highly regulated, and the Banks are only able to engage in business activities, 
and to provide products and services, that are permitted by applicable law and regulation.  In addition, the earnings of the Banks 
are affected by the policies of regulatory authorities including the FDIC and the FRB.  An important function of the FRB is to 
regulate the money supply and interest rates.  Among the instruments used to implement these objectives are open market operations 
in U.S. Government Securities, changes in reserve requirements against member bank deposits, and limitations on interest rates 
that member banks may pay on time and savings deposits.  These instruments are used in varying combinations to influence overall 
growth and distribution of bank loans, investments on deposits, and their use may also affect interest rates charged on loans or 
paid for deposits.

The policies and regulations of the FRB have had and will probably continue to have a significant effect on the Bank’s deposits, 
loans and investment growth, as well as the rate of interest earned and paid, and are expected to affect the Banks' operation in the 
future. The effect of such policies and regulations upon the future business and earnings of the Banks cannot accurately be predicted.

ITEM 1A  RISK FACTORS

The following sets forth several risk factors that are unique to the Company.

Changes in interest rates could reduce our income, cash flows and asset values.

Our income and cash flows and the value of our assets depend to a great extent on the difference between the interest rates we 
earn on interest-earning assets, such as loans and investment securities, and the interest rates we pay on interest-bearing liabilities 
such as deposits and borrowings.  These rates are highly sensitive to many factors which are beyond our control, including general 
economic conditions and policies of various governmental and regulatory agencies and, in particular, the Board of Governors of 
the Federal Reserve System. Changes in monetary policy, including changes in interest rates, will influence not only the interest 
we receive on our loans and investment securities and the amount of interest we pay on deposits and borrowings but will also 
affect our ability to originate loans and obtain deposits and the value of our investment portfolio.  If the rate of interest we pay on 
our deposits and other borrowings increases more than the rate of interest we earn on our loans and other investments, our net 
interest income, and therefore our earnings, could be adversely affected.  Our earnings also could be adversely affected if the rates 
on our loans and other investments fall more quickly than those on our deposits and other borrowings.

Economic conditions either nationally or locally in areas in which our operations are concentrated may adversely affect 
our business.

Deterioration in local, regional, national, or global economic conditions could cause us to experience a reduction in deposits and 
new loans, an increase in the number of borrowers who default on their loans, and a reduction in the value of the collateral securing 
their  loans,  all  of  which  could  adversely  affect  our  performance  and  financial  condition.  Unlike  larger  banks  that  are  more 
geographically diversified, we provide banking and financial services locally. Therefore, we are particularly vulnerable to adverse 
local economic conditions.

Our financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected if our allowance for loan losses is not sufficient 
to absorb actual losses or if we are required to increase our allowance.

Despite our underwriting criteria, we may experience loan delinquencies and losses.  In order to absorb losses associated with 
nonperforming loans, we maintain an allowance for loan losses based on, among other things, historical experience, an evaluation 
of economic conditions, and regular reviews of delinquencies and loan portfolio quality.  Determination of the allowance inherently 
involves a high degree of subjectivity and requires us to make significant estimates of current credit risks and future trends, all of 
which may undergo material changes.  At any time there are likely to be loans in our portfolio that will result in losses but that 
have  not  been  identified  as  nonperforming  or  potential  problem  credits.  We  cannot  be  sure  that  we  will  be  able  to  identify 
deteriorating  credits  before  they  become  nonperforming  assets  or  that  we  will  be  able  to  limit  losses  on  those  loans  that  are 
identified. We may be required to increase our allowance for loan losses for any of several reasons.  Federal regulators, in reviewing 
18

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
our loan portfolio as part of a regulatory examination, may request that we increase our allowance for loan losses.  Changes in 
economic conditions affecting borrowers, new information regarding existing loans, identification of additional problem loans 
and other factors, both within and outside of our control, may require an increase in our allowance.  In addition, if charge-offs in 
future periods exceed our allowance for loan losses, we will need additional increases in our allowance for loan losses.  Any 
increases in our allowance for loan losses will result in a decrease in our net income and, possibly, our capital, and may materially 
affect our results of operations in the period in which the allowance is increased.

Many of our loans are secured, in whole or in part, with real estate collateral which is subject to declines in value.

In addition to considering the financial strength and cash flow characteristics of a borrower, we often secure our loans with real 
estate collateral. Real estate values and the real estate market are generally affected by, among other things, changes in local, 
regional or national economic conditions, fluctuations in interest rates and the availability of loans to potential purchasers, changes 
in tax laws and other governmental statutes, regulations and policies, and acts of nature.  The real estate collateral provides an 
alternate source of repayment in the event of default by the borrower.  If real estate prices in our markets decline, the value of the 
real estate collateral securing our loans could be reduced. If we are required to liquidate real estate collateral securing loans during 
a period of reduced real estate values to satisfy the debt, our earnings and capital could be adversely affected.

Competition may decrease our growth or profits.

We face substantial competition in all phases of our operations from a variety of different competitors, including commercial 
banks, savings and loan associations, mutual savings banks, credit unions, consumer finance companies, factoring companies, 
leasing companies, insurance companies, and money market mutual funds.  There is very strong competition among financial 
services providers in our principal service area.  Our competitors may have greater resources, higher lending limits, or larger 
branch systems than we do.  Accordingly, they may be able to offer a broader range of products and services as well as better 
pricing for those products and services than we can.

In addition, some of the financial services organizations with which we compete are not subject to the same degree of regulation 
as is imposed on federally insured financial institutions.  As a result, those non-bank competitors may be able to access funding 
and provide various services more easily or at less cost than we can, adversely affecting our ability to compete effectively.

The  value  of  certain  investment  securities  is  volatile  and  future  declines  or  other-than-temporary  impairments  could 
materially adversely affect our future earnings and regulatory capital.

Continued volatility in the market value for certain of our investment securities, whether caused by changes in market perceptions 
of credit risk, as reflected in the expected market yield of the security, or actual defaults in the portfolio could result in significant 
fluctuations in the value of the securities. This could have a material adverse impact on our accumulated other comprehensive 
income/loss and shareholders’ equity depending on the direction of the fluctuations. Furthermore, future downgrades or defaults 
in these securities could result in future classifications of investment securities as other than temporarily impaired. This could 
have a material impact on our future earnings, although the impact on shareholders’ equity will be offset by any amount already 
included in other comprehensive income/loss for securities where we have recorded temporary impairment.

We may be adversely affected by government regulation.

The banking industry is heavily regulated. Banking regulations are primarily intended to protect the federal deposit insurance 
funds and depositors, not shareholders. Changes in the laws, regulations, and regulatory practices affecting the banking industry 
may increase our costs of doing business or otherwise adversely affect us and create competitive advantages for others. Regulations 
affecting banks and financial services companies undergo continuous change, and we cannot predict the ultimate effect of these 
changes, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability or financial condition.

In response to the financial crisis that commenced in 2008, Congress has taken actions that are intended to strengthen confidence 
and  encourage  liquidity  in  financial  institutions,  and  the  FDIC  has  taken  actions  to  increase  insurance  coverage  on  deposit 
accounts.  The Dodd-Frank Act provides for the creation of a consumer protection division at the Board of Governors of the Federal 
Reserve System that will have broad authority to issue regulations governing the services and products we provide consumers.  This 
additional regulation could increase our compliance costs and otherwise adversely impact our operations.  That legislation also 
contains provisions that, over time, could result in higher regulatory capital requirements (including through the implementation 
of the capital standards of Basel III) and loan loss provisions for the Banks, and may increase interest expense due to the ability 
granted in July 2011 to pay interest on all demand deposits.  In addition, there have been proposals made by members of Congress 
and others that would reduce the amount delinquent borrowers are otherwise contractually obligated to pay under their mortgage 
loans and limit an institution’s ability to foreclose on mortgage collateral.  These proposals could result in credit losses or increased 
19

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
expense in pursuing our remedies as a creditor.  Recent regulatory changes impose limits on our ability to charge overdraft fees, 
which may decrease our non-interest income as compared to more recent prior periods.

The  potential  exists  for  additional  federal  or  state  laws  and  regulations,  or  changes  in  policy,  affecting  many  aspects  of  our 
operations, including capital levels, lending and funding practices, and liquidity standards.  New laws and regulations may increase 
our costs of regulatory compliance and of doing business and otherwise affect our operations, and may significantly affect the 
markets in which we do business, the markets for and value of our loans and investments, the fees we can charge and our ongoing 
operations, costs and profitability.

We rely on our management and other key personnel, and the loss of any of them may adversely affect our operations.

We are and will continue to be dependent upon the services of our executive management team. In addition, we will continue to 
depend on our ability to retain and recruit key commercial loan officers. The unexpected loss of services of any key management 
personnel or commercial loan officers could have an adverse effect on our business and financial condition because of their skills, 
knowledge of our market, years of industry experience, and the difficulty of promptly finding qualified replacement personnel.

Environmental liability associated with lending activities could result in losses.

In the course of our business, we may foreclose on and take title to properties securing our loans.  If hazardous substances were 
discovered on any of these properties, we could be liable to governmental entities or third parties for the costs of remediation of 
the hazard, as well as for personal injury and property damage.  Many environmental laws can impose liability regardless of 
whether we knew of, or were responsible for, the contamination.  In addition, if we arrange for the disposal of hazardous or toxic 
substances at another site, we may be liable for the costs of cleaning up and removing those substances from the site even if we 
neither own nor operate the disposal site.  Environmental laws may require us to incur substantial expenses and may materially 
limit use of properties we acquire through foreclosure, reduce their value or limit our ability to sell them in the event of a default 
on the loans they secure.  In addition, future laws or more stringent interpretations or enforcement policies with respect to existing 
laws may increase our exposure to environmental liability.

Failure to implement new technologies in our operations may adversely affect our growth or profits.

The market for financial services, including banking services and consumer finance services is increasingly affected by advances 
in technology, including developments in telecommunications, data processing, computers, automation, Internet-based banking, 
and telebanking. Our ability to compete successfully in our markets may depend on the extent to which we are able to exploit such 
technological changes. However, we can provide no assurance that we will be able to properly or timely anticipate or implement 
such technologies or properly train our staff to use such technologies.  Any failure to adapt to new technologies could adversely 
affect our business, financial condition, or operating results.

An investment in our common stock is not an insured deposit.

Our common stock is not a bank deposit and, therefore, is not insured against loss by the FDIC, any other deposit insurance fund, 
or by any other public or private entity.  Investment in our common stock is subject to the same market forces that affect the price 
of common stock in any company.

We may fail to realize all of the anticipated benefits of the merger of Luzerne National Bank Corporation 

The success of the merger will depend, in part, on the Company’s ability to realize the anticipated benefits and cost savings from 
combining the businesses of the Company and Luzerne.  To realize these anticipated benefits and cost savings, however, the 
businesses of the Company and Luzerne must be successfully combined.  If the Company is not able to achieve these objectives, 
the anticipated benefits and cost savings of the merger may not be realized fully or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected. 
If the Company fails to realize the anticipated benefits of the merger, the Company’s results of operations could be adversely 
affected.

The Jersey Shore State Bank has paid cash dividends since 1941.  The Company has paid dividends since the effective date of its 
formation as a bank holding company.  It is the present intention of the Company’s board of directors to continue the dividend 
payment  policy;  however,  further  dividends  must  necessarily  depend  upon  earnings,  financial  condition,  appropriate  legal 
restrictions, and other factors relevant at the time the board of directors of the Company considers dividend policy.  Cash available 
for dividend distributions to shareholders of the Company primarily comes from dividends paid by the Jersey Shore State Bank 
and Luzerne Bank to the Company. Therefore, the restrictions on the Banks' dividend payments are directly applicable to the 
Company.  See also the information appearing in Note 19 to “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information 
related to dividend restrictions.

Under the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law of 1988 a corporation may not pay a dividend, if after giving effect thereto, 
the corporation would be unable to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business and after giving effect thereto 
the total assets of the corporation would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed, if the 
corporation were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of the shareholders 
whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the dividend.

As of March 1, 2014, the Company had approximately 1,431 shareholders of record.

ITEM 7  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF 

OPERATION

NET INTEREST INCOME

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net interest income is determined by calculating the difference between the yields earned on interest-earning assets and the rates 
paid on interest-bearing liabilities. To compare the tax-exempt asset yields to taxable yields, amounts are adjusted to taxable 
equivalents based on the marginal corporate federal tax rate of 34%.  The tax equivalent adjustments to net interest income for 
2013, 2012, and 2011 were $2,730,000, $3,203,000, and $3,122,000, respectively.

2013 vs. 2012 

Reported net interest income increased $7,139,000 or 23.11% to $38,035,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared 
to the year ended December 31, 2012, although the yield on earning assets decreased to 4.66% from 5.25%.  The acquisition of 
Luzerne was a primary driver for the increase.  On a tax equivalent basis, the change in net interest income was an increase of 
$6,666,000 or 19.55% to $40,765,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012.  
Total interest income increased $6,192,000 as the impact of growth in the average balance of the loan and investment portfolios 
was offset by a decline in the portfolio yields caused by the prolonged low interest rate cycle enacted by the Federal Open Markets 
Committee (“FOMC”). Interest income recognized on the loan portfolio increased $6,934,000 due to a $216,902,000 increase in 
the average balance in the loan portfolio which was partially offset by interest rates repricing downward.  Interest and dividend 
income generated from the investment portfolio and interest bearing cash deposits decreased $1,215,000.  The decrease was driven 
by a decrease in yield of 47 basis points ("bp") for the investment portfolio.

Interest expense decreased $947,000 to $5,264,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to 2012.  Leading the decrease 
in  interest  expense  was  a  decline  of  11.63%  or  $424,000  related  to  deposits.  The  FOMC  actions  noted  previously,  Luzerne 
acquisition, together with a strategic focus on core deposits led to a 23 bp decline in the rate paid on interest-bearing deposits from 
0.71% for the year ended December 31, 2012 to 0.48% for the year ended December 31, 2013.  Leading the significant decline 
in interest-bearing deposit expense was a decline in the cost of time deposits of 41 bp’s and a decline in the cost of money market 
deposits of 21 bp’s.  The overall growth in average deposit balances of $149,381,000 was the primary funding source for  the 
growth in the average loans of $216,902,000.

2012 vs. 2011 

Reported net interest income increased $2,176,000 or 7.58% to $30,896,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to 
the year ended December 31, 2011, although the yield on earning assets decreased to 5.25% from 5.82% respectively.  On a tax 
equivalent basis, the change in net interest income was an increase of $2,257,000 or 7.09% to $34,099,000 for the year ended 
December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011.  Total interest income increased $731,000 as the impact of 
growth in the average balance of the loan and investment portfolios was offset by a decline in the portfolio yields caused by the 
prolonged low interest rate cycle enacted by the Federal Open Markets Committee (“FOMC”). Interest income recognized on the 
loan portfolio increased $185,000 due to a $44,768,000 increase in the average balance in the loan portfolio which was partially 
offset by interest rates repricing downward.  Interest and dividend income generated from the investment portfolio and interest 
bearing cash deposits increased $546,000.  The increase was driven by portfolio growth, which more than compensated for a 
decrease in yield of 70 basis points (“bp”).

Interest expense decreased $1,445,000 to $6,211,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to 2011.  Leading the 
decrease in interest expense was a decline of 20.17% or $921,000 related to deposits.  The FOMC actions noted previously together 
with a strategic focus on core deposits led to a 28 bp decline in the rate paid on interest-bearing deposits from 0.99% for the year 
ended December 31, 2011 to 0.71% for the year ended December 31, 2012.  Leading the significant decline in interest-bearing 
deposit expense was a decline in the cost of time deposits of 33 bp’s and a decline in the cost of money market deposits of 37 bp’s.  
The  overall  growth  in  average  deposit  balances  of  $69,838,000  allowed  for  a  reduction  in  average  long-term  borrowings  of 
$4,885,000 while funding the growth in the average loans of $44,768,000.

AVERAGE BALANCES AND INTEREST RATES

The following tables set forth certain information relating to the Company’s average balance sheet and reflect the average yield 
on assets and average cost of liabilities for the periods indicated and the average yields earned and rates paid.  Such yields and 
costs are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balance of assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented.

The provision for loan losses is based upon management’s quarterly review of the loan portfolio.  The purpose of the review is to 
assess  loan  quality,  identify  impaired  loans,  analyze  delinquencies,  ascertain  loan  growth,  evaluate  potential  charge-offs  and 
recoveries, and assess general economic conditions in the markets served.  An external independent loan review is also performed 
annually for the Company.  Management remains committed to an aggressive program of problem loan identification and resolution.

The allowance is calculated by applying loss factors to outstanding loans by type, excluding loans for which a specific allowance 
has been determined.  Loss factors are based on management’s consideration of the nature of the portfolio segments, changes in 
mix and volume of the loan portfolio, and historical loan loss experience.  In addition, management considers industry standards 
and trends with respect to nonperforming loans and its knowledge and experience with specific lending segments.

Although management believes that it uses the best information available to make such determinations and that the allowance for 
loan losses is adequate at December 31, 2013, future adjustments could be necessary if circumstances or economic conditions 
differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the initial determinations.  A downturn in the local economy or employment 
and delays in receiving financial information from borrowers could result in increased levels of nonperforming assets and charge-
offs, increased loan loss provisions and reductions in interest income.  Additionally, as an integral part of the examination process, 
bank regulatory agencies periodically review the Banks' loan loss allowance adequacy. The banking regulators could require the 
recognition of additions to the loan loss allowance based on their judgment of information available to them at the time of their 
examination.

While determining the appropriate allowance level, management has attributed the allowance for loan losses to various portfolio 
segments; however, the allowance is available for the entire portfolio as needed.

The  allowance  for  loan  losses  increased  from  $7,617,000  at  December 31,  2012  to  $10,144,000  at  December 31,  2013.  At 
December 31, 2013, the allowance for loan losses was 1.24% of total loans compared to 1.49% of total loans at December 31, 
2012.

The provision for loan losses totaled $2,275,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $2,525,000 for the year ended 
December 31, 2012.  The decrease in the provision was appropriate when considering the gross loan growth was concentrated in 
well collateralized real estate backed loans with the borrowers having strong underlying financial positions.  Net recoveries of 
$251,000 represented 0.04%% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to net charge-offs of $2,062,000 
or 0.44% of average loans for the year ended December 31, 2012.  In addition, nonperforming loans decreased $2,028,000 to 
$9,678,000 at December 31, 2013 compared to December 31, 2012 as a  nonperforming commercial loan was paid-off during 
2013.  The nonperforming loans are in a secured position and have sureties with a strong underlying financial position and/or a 
specific allowance within the allowance for loan losses.  Internal loan review and analysis, coupled with the ratios noted previously, 
dictated a decrease in the provision for loan losses.  Utilizing both internal and external resources, as noted, senior management 
has concluded that the allowance for loan losses remains at a level adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan 
portfolio.

2012 vs 2011 

The  allowance  for  loan  losses  increased  from  $7,154,000  at  December 31,  2011  to  $7,617,000  at  December 31,  2012.  At 
December 31, 2012, the allowance for loan losses was 1.49% of total loans compared to 1.64% of total loans at December 31, 
2011.

The provision for loan losses totaled $2,525,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to $2,700,000 for the year ended 
December 31, 2011. The decrease in the provision was appropriate when considering the gross loan growth of $76,273,000 was 
concentrated in well collateralized real estate backed loans with the borrowers having strong underlying financial positions.  In 
addition, many of our loan customers are being positively impacted by the economic stimulus being provided by the Marcellus 
Shale natural gas exploration.  Net charge-offs of $2,062,000 represented 0.44% of average loans for the year ended December 
31, 2012 compared to $1,581,000 and 0.37% for the year ended December 31, 2011.  In addition, nonperforming loans decreased 
$303,000 to $11,706,000 at December 31, 2012 as charge-offs outpaced an increase in construction nonperforming loans.  The 
nonperforming loans are in a secured position and have sureties with a strong underlying financial position and/or a specific 
allowance within the allowance for loan losses.  Internal loan review and analysis, coupled with the ratios noted previously, dictated 
a  decrease  in  the  provision  for  loan  losses.    Utilizing  both  internal  and  external  resources,  as  noted,  senior  management  has 
concluded that the allowance for loan losses remains at a level adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

2013 vs. 2012 

Total non-interest income increased $1,942,000 from the year ended December 31, 2012 to December 31, 2013.  Excluding net 
security gains, non-interest income increased $810,000 year over year.  Service charges increased primarily due to the impact of 
the Luzerne acquisition.  Earnings on bank-owned life insurance remained stable as the steady interest rate environment held 
crediting rates constant.  Insurance commissions decreased due to a change in commission rates coupled with a shift in products.  
Management of The M Group continues to pursue new and build upon current relationships.  However, the sales cycle for insurance 
and investment products can take typically from six months to one year or more to complete.  The increase in other income was 
primarily due to increases in revenues from debit/credit card transactions and merchant card commissions as electronic payment 
methods continue to gain in popularity and an increasing number of merchants use our merchant card services.

2012 vs. 2011 

Total non-interest income increased $1,881,000 from the year ended December 31, 2011 to December 31, 2012.  Excluding net 
security gains, non-interest income increased $1,217,000 year over year.  Service charges decreased as customers continued to 
migrate to checking accounts having reduced or no service charges, while overdraft income declined due to a decreased number 
of overdrafts and a change in the maximum number of overdrafts a customer could incur per day.  Earnings on bank-owned life 
insurance increased due to a non-recurring gain on death benefit recognized in 2012.  Insurance commissions increased as the 
distribution  channel  continued  to  expand.   Management  of  The  M  Group  continues  to  pursue  new  and  build  upon  current 
relationships.  However, the sales cycle for insurance and investment products can take typically from six months to one year or 
more to complete.  The increase in other income was primarily due to increases in revenues from debit/credit card transactions 
and  merchant  card  commissions  as  electronic  payment  methods  continue  to  gain  in  popularity  and  an  increasing  number  of 
merchants use our merchant card services.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

2013 vs. 2012 

Total non-interest expenses increased $8,244,000 from the year ended December 31, 2012 to December 31, 2013.  The primary 
driver for all items was the acquisition of Luzerne that was effective as of June 1, 2013 and included $1,307,000 in one time 
expenses related to the acquisition.  Salaries and employee benefits also increased due to routine annual salary increases and related 
costs.  Intangible amortization of $213,000 is due in its entirety to the Luzerne acquisition.

2012 vs. 2011 

Total non-interest expenses increased $2,059,000 from the year ended December 31, 2011 to December 31, 2012.  The increase 
in salaries and employee benefits was attributable to increases in health insurance, bonus accrual, routine annual salary increases, 
and the addition of our Danville branch.  Increased furniture and equipment expense was driven by the additional branch and 
improvements to existing branches.  Other expenses increased primarily due to expenses, such as advertising, associated with the 
opening of a branch during 2012 and expenses incurred related to the announced plan to acquire Luzerne.

INCOME TAXES

2013 vs. 2012 

The provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2013 resulted in an effective income tax rate of 19.68% compared 
to 15.8.% for 2012.  This increase is primarily the result of increased pre-tax income which includes an increase in net securities 
gains of $1,132,000.

The Company currently is in a deferred tax asset position due to the low income housing tax credits earned both currently and 
previously.  Management has reviewed the deferred tax asset and has determined that the asset will be utilized within the appropriate 
carry forward period and therefore does not require a valuation allowance.

2012 vs. 2011 

The provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2012 resulted in an effective income tax rate of 15.8% compared 
to 13.4% for 2011. This increase is primarily the result of increased net income.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

INVESTMENTS

2013 

The fair value of the investment portfolio decreased $704,000 from December 31, 2012 to December 31, 2013.  The decrease was 
primarily due to a change in the portfolio from having a net unrealized gain to the portfolio having an unrealized loss at December 
31, 2013.  The increase in amortized cost was primarily the result of purchasing shorter-term corporate bonds.  These bonds were 
purchased due to their shorter maturity and ability to reduce the duration of the total investment portfolio during the continued 
period of low interest rates.  The municipal portfolio had the largest change in unrealized gains to an unrealized loss as the portfolio 
moved from an unrealized gain of $11,381,000 at December 31, 2012 to an unrealized loss of $3,326,000 at December 31, 2013 
as uncertainty continued to cloud the environment.

2012 

The fair value of the investment portfolio increased $19,164,000 from December 31, 2011 to December 31, 2012.  The increase 
was split between an increase in unrealized gain and additions to the portfolio during 2012.  The increase in amortized cost was 
primarily the result of purchasing shorter-term other debt securities or corporate bonds.  These bonds were purchased due to their 
shorter maturity and ability to reduce the duration of the total investment portfolio during the continued period of low interest 
rates.  The municipal portfolio had the largest change in unrealized gains as the portfolio moved from an unrealized gain of 
$3,511,000 at December 31, 2011 to an unrealized gain of $11,381,000 at December 31, 2012 as municipal defaults remained low 
and the supply of new issues also remained low.

The carrying amounts of investment securities are summarized as follows for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011:

All yields represent weighted average yields expressed on a tax equivalent basis.  They are calculated on the basis of the cost, 
adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, and effective yields weighted for the scheduled maturity of each 
security.  The taxable equivalent adjustment represents the difference between annual income from tax-exempt obligations and 
the taxable equivalent of such income at the standard 34% tax rate (derived by dividing tax-exempt interest by 66%).

Gross loans of $818,344,000 at December 31, 2013 represented an increase of $306,112,000 from December 31, 2012. The primary 
driver of the increase was $254,057,000 in loans acquired from the acquisition of Luzerne as of June 1, 2013.  The continued 
emphasis on well collateralized real estate loans accounted for the remaining majority of the overall increase in loans outstanding 
with home equity loan and lines leading the way.  Successful campaigns to increase home equity, multifamily residential, and auto 
loans were undertaken during 2013 with the increase in residential and commercial being directly correlated to the campaigns.

2012 

Gross loans of $512,232,000 at December 31, 2012 represented an increase of $76,273,000 from December 31, 2011. The continued 
emphasis on well collateralized real estate loans accounted for the majority of the overall increase in loans outstanding with home 
equity loan and lines leading the way. The success in carrying out this long term strategy played a significant role in limiting net 
charge-offs for 2012 to 0.44% of average loans.  Successful campaigns to increase home equity, multifamily residential, and auto 
loans were undertaken during 2012 with the increase in residential and commercial being directly correlated to the campaigns.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

2013 

The allowance for loan losses represents the amount which management estimates is adequate to provide for probable losses 
inherent in its loan portfolio, as of the consolidated balance sheet date.  All loan losses are charged to the allowance and all 
recoveries are credited to it per the allowance method of providing for loan losses.  The allowance for loan losses is established 
through a provision for loan losses charged to operations.  The provision for loan losses is based upon management’s quarterly 
review of the loan portfolio.  The purpose of the review is to assess loan quality, identify impaired loans, analyze delinquencies, 
ascertain loan growth, evaluate potential charge-offs and recoveries, and assess general economic conditions in the markets served. 
An external independent loan review is also performed annually for the Banks.  Management remains committed to an aggressive 
program of problem loan identification and resolution.

The allowance is calculated by applying loss factors to outstanding loans by type, excluding loans for which a specific allowance 
has been determined.  Loss factors are based on management’s consideration of the nature of the portfolio segments, changes in 
mix and volume of the loan portfolio, and historical loan loss experience.  In addition, management considers industry standards 
and trends with respect to nonperforming loans and its knowledge and experience with specific lending segments.

The  allowance  for  loan  losses  increased  from  $7,617,000  at  December 31,  2012  to  $10,144,000  at  December 31,  2013.  At 
December 31, 2013, the allowance for loan losses was 1.24% of total loans compared to 1.49% of total loans at December 31, 
2012.  The decrease in the allowance for loan losses to total loans was the result of purchase accounting adjustment that were 
applied to the Luzerne loan portfolio.  The increase in the allowance for loan losses was appropriate when considering the gross 
loan growth, level of commercial loans, declining impact of the Marcellus Shale natural gas exploration, and the continued uncertain 
economic environment.  Net loan recoveries of $251,000 augmented the allowance for loan losses and were the result of a large 
recovery on a commercial loan.  Management concluded that the allowance for loan losses is adequate to provide for probable 
losses inherent in its loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date as noted in the provision for loan losses discussion.

Based on management’s loan-by-loan review, the past performance of the borrowers, and current economic conditions, including 
recent  business  closures  and  bankruptcy  levels,  management  does  not  anticipate  any  current  losses  related  to  nonaccrual, 
nonperforming, or classified loans above those that have already been considered in its overall judgment of the adequacy of the 
allowance for loan losses.

2012 

The  allowance  for  loan  losses  increased  from  $7,154,000  at  December 31,  2011  to  $7,617,000  at  December 31,  2012.  At 
December 31, 2012, the allowance for loan losses was 1.49% of total loans compared to 1.64% of total loans at December 31, 
35

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
2011.  The decrease in the allowance for loan losses to total loans was appropriate when considering the gross loan growth of 
$76,273,000 was concentrated in well collateralized real estate backed loans with the borrowers having strong underlying financial 
positions.  In addition, many of our loan customers are being positively impacted by the economic stimulus being provided by the 
Marcellus Shale natural gas exploration.  This percentage has decreased due to the increase in the loan portfolio and several large 
charge-offs during 2012 that amounted to net charge-offs of $2,062,000.  Management concluded that the allowance for loan losses 
is adequate to provide for probable losses inherent in its loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date as noted in the provision for 
loan losses discussion.

NONPERFORMING LOANS

Nonaccrual loans decreased primarily due to a payoff of a commercial real estate loan that was partially charged-off . The loan 
had a specific allowance within the allowance for loan losses.

The following table presents information concerning nonperforming loans.  The accrual of interest will be discontinued when the 
principal or interest of a loan is in default for 90 days or more, or as soon as payment is questionable, unless the loan is well secured 
and in the process of collection. Consumer loans and residential real estate loans secured by 1 to 4 family dwellings are not 
ordinarily subject to those guidelines.  The reversal of previously accrued but uncollected interest applicable to any loan placed 
in a nonaccrual status and the treatment of subsequent payments of either principal or interest will be handled in accordance with 
GAAP.  These principles do not require a write-off of previously accrued interest if principal and interest are ultimately protected 
by sound collateral values.  A nonperforming loan may be restored to accruing status when:

1.              Principal and interest is no longer due and unpaid;
2.              It becomes well secured and in the process of collection; and
3.              Prospects for future contractual payments are no longer in doubt.

The level of nonaccruing loans continues to fluctuate annually and is attributed to the various economic factors experienced both 
regionally and nationally.  Overall, the portfolio is well secured with a majority of the balance making regular payments or scheduled 
to be satisfied in the near future.  Presently, there are no significant amounts of loans where serious doubts exist as to the ability

of the borrower to comply with the current loan payment terms which are not included in the nonperforming categories as indicated 
above.

Management’s judgment in determining the amount of the additions to the allowance charged to operating expense considers the 
following factors with no single factor being determinative:

1.              Economic conditions and the impact on the loan portfolio.
2.              Analysis of past loan charge-offs experienced by category and comparison to outstanding loans.
3.              Effect of problem loans on overall portfolio quality.
4.              Reports of examination of the loan portfolio by the Pennsylvania State Department of Banking and the FDIC.

DEPOSITS

2013 vs. 2012 

Total  average  deposits  increased  $210,859,000  or  33.51%  from  2012  to  2013.  The  growth  is  a  combination  of  the  Luzerne 
acquisition and the result of an emphasis to increase and solidify deposit relationships by focusing on core deposits, not time 
deposits. The actions caused average core deposits, which exclude time deposits, to increase to 75.06% from 72.46% for 2012.  
In addition to the emphasis on growing core deposits by utilizing marketing strategies, the core deposit growth is receiving a lift 
from the natural gas exploration throughout our market footprint and municipal account gathering efforts.  In addition, the Banks 
have continued to capitalize on their reputation of safety and soundness during this prolonged economic downturn.

2012 vs. 2011 

Total average deposits increased $69,838,000 or 12.48% from 2011 to 2012.  The growth is a result of an emphasis to increase 
and solidify deposit relationships by focusing on core deposits, not time deposits.  In fact, average core deposits, which exclude 
time deposits, increased $75,900,000 or 19.97%, while time deposits decreased $6,062,000 or 3.38% from 2011 to 2012.  In 
addition to the emphasis on growing core deposits by utilizing marketing strategies, the core deposit growth is receiving a lift 
from the natural gas exploration throughout our market footprint and municipal account gathering efforts.  In addition, the Bank 
has continued to capitalize on its reputation of safety and soundness during this prolonged economic downturn.

SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

2013 

Shareholders’  equity  increased  $34,089,000  to  $127,815,000  at  December 31,  2013  compared  to  December 31,  2012.   The 
accumulated other comprehensive loss of $4,894,000 at December 31, 2013 is a result of a decrease in unrealized gains on available 
for sale securities from an unrealized gain of $10,164,000 at December 31, 2012 to an unrealized loss of $2,169,000 at December 31, 
2013.  The amount of accumulated other comprehensive loss at December 31, 2013 was also impacted by the change in net excess 
of the projected benefit obligation over the market value of the plan assets of the defined benefit pension plan resulting in a decrease 
in the net loss of $2,082,000 to $2,725,000 at December 31, 2013.  The current level of shareholders’ equity equates to a book 
value per share of $26.52 at December 31, 2013 compared to $24.42 at December 31, 2012 and an equity to asset ratio of 10.55% 

37

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
at December 31, 2013 compared to 10.94% at December 31, 2012.  Excluding goodwill and intangibles, book value per share was 
$22.60 at December 31, 2013 compared to $23.63 at December 31, 2012.  Dividends declared for the three and twelve months 
ended December 31, 2013 were $0.47 and $2.13 per share, which includes a special cash dividend of $0.25 per share declared in 
the first quarter 2013, compared to $0.47 and $1.88 for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2012.

 2012 

Shareholders’  equity  increased  $13,266,000  to  $93,726,000  at  December  31,  2012  compared  to  December  31,  2011.    The 
accumulated other comprehensive gain of $5,357,000 at December 31, 2012 is a result of an increase in unrealized gains on 
available for sale securities from an unrealized gain of $2,914,000 at December 31, 2011 to an unrealized gain of $10,164,000 at 
December 31, 2012.  However, the level of accumulated other comprehensive gain at December 31, 2012 was also impacted by 
the change in net excess of the projected benefit obligation over the market value of the plan assets of the defined benefit pension 
plan resulting in an increase in the net loss of $674,000.  The current level of shareholders’ equity equates to a book value per 
share of $24.42 at December 31, 2012 compared to $20.97 at December 31, 2011 and an equity to asset ratio of 10.94% at December 
31, 2012 compared to 10.53% at December 31, 2011.  Excluding accumulated other comprehensive gain/loss, book value per 
share was $23.02 at December 31, 2012 compared to $21.29 at December 31, 2011.  Dividends paid to shareholders were $1.88 
for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 compared to $1.84 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011, an increase 
of 2.17%.

Bank regulators have risk based capital guidelines.  Under these guidelines the Company and each Bank are required to maintain 
minimum ratios of core capital and total qualifying capital as a percentage of risk weighted assets and certain off-balance sheet 
items. At December 31, 2013, both the Company’s and each Bank’s required ratios were well above the minimum ratios as follows:

LIQUIDITY, INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY, AND MARKET RISK

The asset/liability committee addresses the liquidity needs of the Company to ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet 
credit demands and deposit withdrawals as well as to the placement of available funds in the investment portfolio.  In assessing 
liquidity requirements, equal consideration is given to the current position as well as the future outlook.

The following liquidity measures are monitored for compliance and were within the limits cited at December 31, 2013:

1.  Net Loans to Total Assets, 85% maximum
2.  Net Loans to Total Deposits, 100% maximum
3.  Cumulative 90 day Maturity GAP %, +/- 20% maximum
4.  Cumulative 1 Year Maturity GAP %, +/- 25% maximum

38

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Fundamental objectives of the Company’s asset/liability management process are to maintain adequate liquidity while minimizing 
interest rate risk. The maintenance of adequate liquidity provides the Company with the ability to meet its financial obligations 
to depositors, loan customers, and shareholders. Additionally, it provides funds for normal operating expenditures and business 
opportunities as they arise.  The objective of interest rate sensitivity management is to increase net interest income by managing 
interest sensitive assets and liabilities in such a way that they can be repriced in response to changes in market interest rates.

The  Company,  like  other  financial  institutions,  must  have  sufficient  funds  available  to  meet  its  liquidity  needs  for  deposit 
withdrawals, loan commitments, and expenses.  In order to control cash flow, the Compaany estimates future flows of cash from 
deposits and loan payments.  The primary sources of funds are deposits, principal and interest payments on loans and mortgage-
backed securities, as well as FHLB borrowings.  Funds generated are used principally to fund loans and purchase investment 
securities. Management believes the Company has adequate resources to meet its normal funding requirements.

Management monitors the Company’s liquidity on both a long and short-term basis, thereby, providing management necessary 
information to react to current balance sheet trends.  Cash flow needs are assessed and sources of funds are determined.  Funding 
strategies consider both customer needs and economical cost.  Both short and long term funding needs are addressed by maturities 
and sales of available for sale investment securities, loan repayments and maturities, and liquidating money market investments 
such as federal funds sold. The use of these resources, in conjunction with access to credit, provides core ingredients to satisfy 
depositor, borrower, and creditor needs.

Management  monitors  and  determines  the  desirable  level  of  liquidity.   Consideration  is  given  to  loan  demand,  investment 
opportunities, deposit pricing and growth potential, as well as the current cost of borrowing funds.  The Company has a current 
borrowing capacity at the FHLB of $445,330,000 with $85,075,000 utilized, leaving $360,255,000 available.  In addition to this 
credit  arrangement,  the  Company  has  additional  lines  of  credit  with  correspondent  banks  of  $38,337,000.  The  Company’s 
management believes that it has sufficient liquidity to satisfy estimated short-term and long-term funding needs.

Interest  rate  sensitivity,  which  is  closely  related  to  liquidity  management,  is  a  function  of  the  repricing  characteristics  of  the 
Company’s portfolio of assets and liabilities.  Asset/liability management strives to match maturities and rates between loan and 
investment security assets with the deposit liabilities and borrowings that fund them.  Successful asset/liability management results 
in a balance sheet structure which can cope effectively with market rate fluctuations. The matching process is affected by segmenting 
both  assets  and  liabilities  into  future  time  periods  (usually  12  months,  or  less)  based  upon  when  repricing  can  be  effected.  
Repriceable assets are subtracted from repriceable liabilities, for a specific time period to determine the “gap”, or difference.  Once 
known, the gap is managed based on predictions about future market interest rates.  Intentional mismatching, or gapping, can 
enhance net interest income if market rates move as predicted.  However, if market rates behave in a manner contrary to predictions, 
net interest income will suffer.  Gaps, therefore, contain an element of risk and must be prudently managed.  In addition to gap 
management, the Company has an asset liability management policy which incorporates a market value at risk calculation which 
is used to determine the effects of interest rate movements on shareholders’ equity and a simulation analysis to monitor the effects 
of interest rate changes on the Company’s balance sheet.

The Company currently maintains a gap position of being liability sensitive.  The Company has strategically taken this position 
as it has decreased the duration of the time deposit portfolio over the last several years, while continuing to maintain a primarily 
fixed rate earning asset portfolio with a duration greater than the liabilities utilized to fund earning assets.  Lengthening of the 
liability portfolio coupled with the addition of limited short-term assets is being undertaken.  These actions are expected to reduce, 
but not eliminate, the liability sensitive structure of the balance sheet.

A market value at risk calculation is utilized to monitor the effects of interest rate changes on the Company’s balance sheet and 
more specifically shareholders’ equity.  The Company does not manage the balance sheet structure in order to maintain compliance 
with this calculation.  The calculation serves as a guideline with greater emphasis placed on interest rate sensitivity.  Changes to 
calculation results from period to period are reviewed as changes in results could be a signal of future events.  As of the most 
recent analysis, the results of the market value at risk calculation were outside of established guidelines due to the strategic direction 
being taken.

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

In this analysis the Company examines the result of various changes in market interest rates in 100 basis point increments and 
their effect on net interest income. It is assumed that the change is instantaneous and that all rates move in a parallel manner.  
Assumptions are also made concerning prepayment speeds on mortgage loans and mortgage securities.

The following is a rate shock forecast for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2014 assuming a static balance sheet as 
of December 31, 2013.

Parallel Rate Shock in Basis Points

The model utilized to create the report presented above makes various estimates at each level of interest rate change regarding 
cash flow from principal repayment on loans and mortgage-backed securities and/or call activity on investment securities.  Actual 
results could differ significantly from these estimates which would result in significant differences in the calculated projected 
change.  In addition, the limits stated above do not necessarily represent the level of change under which management would 
undertake specific measures to realign its portfolio in order to reduce the projected level of change.  Generally, management 
believes the Company is well positioned to respond expeditiously when the market interest rate outlook changes.

INFLATION

The asset and liability structure of a financial institution is primarily monetary in nature; therefore, interest rates rather than inflation 
have a more significant impact on the Company’s performance.  Interest rates are not always affected in the same direction or 
magnitude as prices of other goods and services, but are reflective of fiscal policy initiatives or economic factors that are not 
measured by a price index.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company’s accounting policies are integral to understanding the results reported.  The accounting policies are described in 
detail in Note 1 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.”  Our most complex accounting policies require management’s 
judgment to ascertain the valuation of assets, liabilities, commitments, and contingencies.  We have established detailed policies 
and control procedures that are intended to ensure valuation methods are well controlled and applied consistently from period to 
period.  In addition, the policies and procedures are intended to ensure that the process for changing methodologies occurs in an 
appropriate manner.  The following is a brief description of our current accounting policies involving significant management 
valuation judgments.

Other Than Temporary Impairment of Debt and Equity Securities

Debt  and  equity  securities  are  evaluated  periodically  to  determine  whether  a  decline  in  their  value  is  other  than  temporary. 
Management utilizes criteria such as the magnitude and duration of the decline, in addition to the reason underlying the decline, 
to determine whether the loss in value is other than temporary. The term “other than temporary” is not intended to indicate that 
the decline is permanent.  It indicates that the prospects for a near term recovery of value are not necessarily favorable, or that 
there is a lack of evidence to support fair values equal to, or greater than, the carrying value of the investment.  Once a decline in 
value is determined to be other than temporary, the value of the security is reduced and a corresponding charge to earnings is 
recognized.  For  a  full  discussion  of  the  Company’s  methodology  of  assessing  impairment,  refer  to  Note  4  of  the  “Notes  to 
Consolidated Financial Statements.”

Allowance for Loan Losses

Arriving at an appropriate level of allowance for loan losses involves a high degree of judgment.  The Company’s allowance for 
loan losses provides for probable losses based upon evaluations of known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio.

Management uses historical information to assess the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses as well as the prevailing business 
environment; as it is affected by changing economic conditions and various external factors, which may impact the portfolio in 
ways currently unforeseen.  The allowance is increased by provisions for loan losses and by recoveries of loans previously charged-
off and reduced by loans charged-off.  For a full discussion of the Company’s methodology of assessing the adequacy of the reserve 
for allowance for loan losses, refer to Note 1 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.”

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

As discussed in Note 8 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements,” the Company must assess goodwill and other intangible 
assets each year for impairment.  This assessment involves estimating cash flows for future periods. If the future cash flows were 

40

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
less than the recorded goodwill and other intangible assets balances, we would be required to take a charge against earnings to 
write down the assets to the lower value.

Deferred Tax Assets

Management uses an estimate of future earnings to support their position that the benefit of their deferred tax assets will be realized.  
If future income should prove non-existent or less than the amount of the deferred tax assets within the tax years to which they 
may be applied, the asset may not be realized and the Company’s net income will be reduced.  The Company’s deferred tax assets 
are described further in Note 12 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.”

Pension Benefits

Pension costs and liabilities are dependent on assumptions used in calculating such amounts.  These assumptions include discount 
rates, benefits earned, interest costs, expected return on plan assets, mortality rates, and other factors.  In accordance with GAAP, 
actual results that differ from the assumptions are accumulated and amortized over future periods and, therefore, generally affect 
recognized expense and the recorded obligation of future periods.  While management believes that the assumptions used are 
appropriate, differences in actual experience or changes in assumptions may affect the Company’s pension obligations and future 
expense.  Our pension benefits are described further in Note 13 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.”

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

The Company has various financial obligations, including contractual obligations which may require future cash payments. The 
following table presents, as of December 31, 2013, significant fixed and determinable contractual obligations to third parties by 
payment date. Further discussion of the nature of each obligation is included in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.”

PENNS WOODS BANCORP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 — OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly owned 
subsidiaries, Jersey Shore State Bank (“JSSB”),  Luzerne Bank ("Luzerne" collectively with JSSB "Banks"), Woods Real Estate 
Development Co., Inc., Woods Investment Company, Inc., and The M Group Inc. D/B/A The Comprehensive Financial Group  
(“The M Group”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank (collectively, the “Company”).  All significant intercompany balances 
and transactions have been eliminated.

Nature of Business

The Banks engage in a full-service commercial banking business, making available to the community a wide range of financial 
services including, but not limited to, installment loans, credit cards, mortgage and home equity loans, lines of credit, construction 
financing, farm loans, community development loans, loans to non-profit entities and local government, and various types of time 
and demand deposits including, but not limited to, checking accounts, savings accounts, clubs, money market deposit accounts, 
certificates of deposit, and IRAs.  Deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) to the extent 
provided by law.

The financial services are provided by the Banks to individuals, partnerships, non-profit organizations, and corporations through 
their twenty-one offices located in Clinton, Lycoming, Centre, Montour, and Luzerne Counties, Pennsylvania.

Woods Real Estate Development Co., Inc. engages in real estate transactions on behalf of Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. and the 
Banks.

Woods Investment Company, Inc., a Delaware holding company, is engaged in investing activities.

The M Group engages in securities brokerage and financial planning services, which include the sale of life insurance products, 
annuities, and estate planning services.

Operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a corporate-wide basis.  Accordingly, all financial service 
operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment.

Use of Estimates

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

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, 
valuation of net deferred tax assets, impairment of goodwill, other than temporary impairment of debt and equity securities, fair 
value of financial instruments, and the valuation of real estate acquired through, or in lieu of, foreclosure on settlement of debt.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include cash on hand and in banks.  Interest-earning deposits mature within 90 days and are carried at cost.  Net 
cash flows are reported for loan, deposit, and short-term borrowing transactions.

Restrictions on Cash and Cash Equivalents

Based on deposit levels, the Banks must maintain cash and other reserves with the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia (FRB).

Investment Securities

Investment securities are classified at the time of purchase, based on management’s intention and ability, as securities held to 
maturity or securities available for sale.  Debt securities acquired with the intent and ability to hold to maturity are stated at cost, 
adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, which are computed using the interest method and recognized as 
adjustments of interest income. Certain other debt securities have been classified as available for sale to serve principally as a 
source of liquidity.  Unrealized holding gains and losses for available for sale securities are reported as a separate component of 
shareholders’ equity, net of tax, until realized.  Realized security gains and losses are computed using the specific identification 
method for debt securities and the average cost method for marketable equity securities.  Interest and dividends on investment 
securities are recognized as income when earned.

Securities are periodically reviewed for other-than-temporary impairment based upon a number of factors, including, but not 
limited to, the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition of the underlying 
issuer, the ability of the issuer to meet contractual obligations, the likelihood of the security’s ability to recover any decline in its 
fair value, whether it is more likely than not that the Company would be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery 
in fair value, and a review of the Company’s capital adequacy, interest rate risk position, and liquidity. The assessment of a security’s 
ability to recover any decline in fair value, the ability of the issuer to meet contractual obligations, and management’s intent and 
ability requires considerable judgment. A decline in value that is considered to be other-than-temporary is recorded as a loss within 
non-interest income in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Investment securities fair values are based on observed market prices.  Certain investment securities do not have observed bid 
prices and their fair value is based on instruments with similar risk elements. Since regulatory stock is redeemable at par, the 
Company carries it at cost.

Loans

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff generally are stated 
at the principal amount outstanding, net of deferred fees and discounts, unamortized loan fees and costs, and the allowance for 
loan losses. Interest on loans is recognized as income when earned on the accrual method.  The Company’s general policy has 
been to stop accruing interest on loans when it is determined a reasonable doubt exists as to the collectability of additional interest. 
Income is subsequently recognized only to the extent that cash payments are received provided the loan is not delinquent in 
payment and, in management’s judgment, the borrower has the ability and intent to make future principal payments.  Otherwise, 
payments are applied to the unpaid principal balance of the loan.  Loans are restored to accrual status if certain conditions are met, 
including but not limited to, the repayment of all unpaid interest and scheduled principal due, ongoing performance consistent 
with the contractual agreement, and the future expectation of continued, timely payments.

Loan origination and commitment fees as well as certain direct loan origination costs are being deferred and amortized as an 
adjustment to the related loan’s yield over the contractual lives of the related loans.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses represents the amount which management estimates is adequate to provide for probable losses 
inherent in its loan portfolio, as of the Consolidated Balance Sheet date.  The allowance method is used in providing for loan 
losses.  Accordingly, all loan losses are charged to the allowance and all recoveries are credited to it.  The allowance for loan losses 
is established through a provision for loan losses charged to operations.  The provision for loan losses is based upon management’s 
quarterly  review  of  the  loan  portfolio.  The  purpose  of  the  review  is  to  assess  loan  quality,  identify  impaired  loans,  analyze 
delinquencies, ascertain loan growth, evaluate potential charge-offs and recoveries, and assess general economic conditions in the 
markets served.  An external independent loan review is also performed annually for the Bank.  Management remains committed 
to an aggressive program of problem loan identification and resolution.

The allowance is calculated by applying loss factors to outstanding loans by type, excluding loans for which a specific allowance 
has been determined.  Loss factors are based on management’s consideration of the nature of the portfolio segments, changes in 
mix and volume of the loan portfolio, historical loan loss experience, and general economic conditions.  In addition, management 
considers industry standards and trends with respect to nonperforming loans and its knowledge and experience with specific 
lending segments.

Although management believes that it uses the best information available to make such determinations and that the allowance for 
loan losses is adequate at December 31, 2013, future adjustments could be necessary if circumstances or economic conditions 
differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the initial determinations.  A downturn in the local economy, rising 
49

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
unemployment, or negative performance trends in financial information from borrowers could be indicators of subsequent increased 
levels of nonperforming assets and possible charge-offs, which would normally require increased loan loss provisions. An integral 
part of the periodic regulatory examination process is the review of the adequacy of the Banks' loan loss allowance. The regulatory 
agencies could require the Banks, based on their evaluation of information available at the time of their examination, to provide 
additional loan loss provisions to further supplement the allowance.

Impaired loans are commercial and commercial real estate loans for which it is probable the Banks will not be able to collect all 
amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  The Banks individually evaluate such loans for impairment 
and do not aggregate loans by major risk classifications.  The definition of “impaired loans” is not the same as the definition of 
“nonaccrual loans,” although the two categories overlap.  The Banks may choose to place a loan on nonaccrual status due to 
payment delinquency or uncertain collectability, while not classifying the loan as impaired if the loan is not a commercial or 
commercial real estate loan. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status and collateral 
value.  The amount of impairment for these types of loans is determined by the difference between the present value of the expected 
cash flows related to the loan, using the original interest rate, and its recorded value, or as a practical expedient in the case of 
collateralized loans, the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the recorded amount of the loans.  When foreclosure 
is probable, impairment is measured based on the fair value of the collateral.

Mortgage loans on one-to-four family properties and all consumer loans are large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans 
and are measured for impairment collectively.  Loans that experience insignificant payment delays, which are defined as 90 days 
or less, generally are not classified as impaired.  Management determines the significance of payment delays on a case-by-case 
basis taking into consideration all circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower including the length of the delay, the 
borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.

Loan Charge-off Policies

Loans are generally fully or partially charged down to the fair value of collateral securing the asset when:

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

  management judges the asset to be uncollectible;

repayment is deemed to be protracted beyond reasonable time frames;

the asset has been classified as a loss by either the internal loan review process or external examiners;

the borrower has filed bankruptcy and the loss becomes evident due to a lack of assets; or

the loan is 180 days past due unless both well secured and in the process of collection.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

In situations where, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, management may grant a concession 
for other than an insignificant period of time to the borrower that would not otherwise be considered, the related loan is classified 
as a troubled debt restructuring (TDR). Management strives to identify borrowers in financial difficulty early and work with them 
to modify to more affordable terms before their loan reaches nonaccrual status. These modified terms may include rate reductions, 
principal forgiveness, payment forbearance, and other actions intended to minimize the economic loss and to avoid foreclosure 
or repossession of the collateral. In cases where borrowers are granted new terms that provide for a reduction of either interest or 
principal, management measures any impairment on the restructuring as noted above for impaired loans.

In addition to the allowance for the pooled portfolios, management has developed a separate allowance for loans that are identified 
as impaired through a TDR. These loans are excluded from pooled loss forecasts and a separate reserve is provided under the 
accounting guidance for loan impairment. Consumer loans whose terms have been modified in a TDR are also individually analyzed 
for estimated impairment.

Loans Held for Sale

In general, fixed rate residential mortgage loans originated by the Banks are held for sale and are carried at cost due to their short 
holding period, which can range from less than two weeks to a maximum of thirty days.  Sold loans are not serviced by the Banks. 
Proceeds from the sale of loans in excess of the carrying value are accounted for as a gain.  Total gains on the sale of loans are 
shown as a component of non-interest income within the Consolidated Statement of Income.

50

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Foreclosed Assets

Foreclosed assets are carried at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated selling costs.  Prior to foreclosure, the value of the 
underlying loan is written down to the fair value of the real estate to be acquired by a charge to the allowance for loan losses, if 
necessary. Any subsequent write-downs are charged against operating expenses.  Net operating expenses and gains and losses 
realized from disposition are included in non-interest expense and income, respectively, within the Consolidated Statement of 
Income.

Premises and Equipment

Land is carried at cost.  Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using 
straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from five to ten years for 
furniture, fixtures, and equipment and fifteen to forty years for buildings and improvements.  Costs incurred for routine maintenance 
and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.  Costs of major additions and improvements are capitalized.

Bank-Owned Life Insurance

The Company has purchased life insurance policies on certain officers and directors.  Bank-owned life insurance is recorded at 
its cash surrender value, or the amount that can be realized.  Increases in the cash surrender value are recognized as a component 
of non-interest income within the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Goodwill

The Company performs an annual impairment analysis of goodwill for its purchased subsidiaries, Luzerne and The M Group.  
Based on the fair value of these reporting units, estimated using the expected present value of future cash flows, no impairment 
of goodwill was recognized in 2013, 2012, or 2011.

Intangible Assets
At December 31, 2013, the Company had intangible assets of $1,801,000 as a result of the acquisition of Luzerne National Bank 
Corporation, which is net of accumulated amortization of $213,000.  These intangible assets will continue to be amortized using 
the sum-of-the-years digits method of amortization over ten years.  

Investments in Limited Partnerships

The Company is a limited partner in four partnerships at December 31, 2013 that provide low income elderly housing in the 
Company’s geographic market area. The carrying value of the Company’s investments in limited partnerships was $2,221,000 at 
December 31, 2013 and $2,883,000 at December 31, 2012. One investment is fully amortized, while the other three are being 
amortized over the ten-year tax credit receipt period utilizing the straight-line method.  The partnerships are amortized once the 
projects reach the level of occupancy needed to begin the ten year tax credit recognition period.  Amortization of limited partnership 
investments amounted to $661,000 in 2013, 2012, and 2011.

Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into off-balance sheet financial instruments. Those instruments consist of 
commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. When those instruments are funded or become payable, the Company 
reports the amounts in its financial statements.

Advertising Cost

Advertising costs are generally expensed as incurred.

Income Taxes

The  Company  prescribes  a  recognition  threshold  and  a  measurement  attribute  for  the  financial  statement  recognition  and 
measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Benefits from tax positions should be recognized in 
the financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the 
appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets the more-likely-
than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized 
upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be 
51

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions 
that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting 
period in which that threshold is no longer met.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities result from temporary differences in financial and income tax methods of accounting, and are 
reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected 
to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the 
provision for income taxes.  The Company analyzed its deferred tax asset position and determined that there was not a need for a 
valuation allowance due to the Company’s ability to generate future ordinary and capital taxable income.

The Company when applicable recognizes interest and penalties on income taxes as a component of income tax provision.

Earnings Per Share

The Company provides dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share.  Basic earnings per share is calculated utilizing 
net income as reported in the numerator and weighted average shares outstanding in the denominator.  The computation of diluted 
earnings per share differs in that the dilutive effects of any stock options are adjusted in the denominator.

Employee Benefits

Pension and employee benefits include contributions, determined actuarially, to a defined benefit retirement plan covering the 
eligible employees of JSSB.  The plan is funded on a current basis to the extent that it is deductible under existing federal tax 
regulations.  Pension and other employee benefits also include contributions to a defined contribution Section 401(k) plan covering 
eligible employees.  Contributions matching those made by eligible employees are funded throughout the year. In addition, an 
elective contribution is made annually at the discretion of the board of directors for the employees of JSSB.

The M Group Products and Income Recognition

The M Group product line is comprised primarily of annuities, life insurance, and mutual funds.  The revenues generated from 
life insurance sales are commission only, as The M Group does not underwrite the policies.  Life insurance sales include permanent 
and term policies with the majority of the policies written being permanent.  Term life insurance policies are written for 10, 15, 
20, and 30 year terms with the majority of the policies being written for 20 years.  None of these products are offered as an integral 
part of lending activities.

Commissions from the sale of annuities are recognized at the time notice is received from the third party broker/dealer or an 
insurance company that the transaction has been accepted and approved, which is also the time when commission income is 
received.

Life insurance commissions are recognized at varying points based on the payment option chosen by the customer.  Commissions 
from monthly and annual payment plans are recognized at the start of each annual period for the life insurance, while quarterly 
and semi-annual premium payments are recognized quarterly and semi-annually when the earnings process is complete.  For 
example, semi-annual payments on the first of January and July would result in commission income recognition on the first of 
January and July, while payments on the first of January, April, July, and October would result in commission income recognition 
on those dates. The potential for chargebacks only exists for those policies on a monthly payment plan since income is recognized 
at  the  beginning  of  the  annual  coverage  period  versus  at  the  time  of  each  monthly  payment.   No  liability  is  maintained  for 
chargebacks as these are removed from income at the time of the occurrence.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

The Company is required to present accumulated other comprehensive income in a full set of general-purpose financial statements 
for all periods presented. Accumulated other comprehensive income is comprised of unrealized holding gains (losses) on the 
available for sale securities portfolio and the unrecognized components of net periodic benefit costs of the defined benefit pension 
plan.

Segment Reporting

The Company has determined that its only reportable segment is Community Banking.

Reclassification of Comparative Amounts

Certain items previously reported have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s reporting format.  Such reclassifications 
did not affect net income or shareholders’ equity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220):  Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out 
of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.  The amendments in this update require an entity to report the effect of significant 
reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being 
reclassified is required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to be reclassified in its entirety to net income.  
For other amounts that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting 
period, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional detail about 
those amounts.  The Company has provided the necessary disclosures in Note 2 - Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a 
Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. This Update applies to all entities 
that have unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists 
at the reporting date. An unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial 
statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, 
except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available 
at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from 
the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does 
not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements 
as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The assessment of whether a deferred tax asset is available is 
based  on  the  unrecognized  tax  benefit  and  deferred  tax  asset  that  exist  at  the  reporting  date  and  should  be  made  presuming 
disallowance of the tax position at the reporting date. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim 
periods  within  those  years,  beginning  after  December  15,  2013.  The  amendments  should  be  applied  prospectively  to  all 
unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted.  This ASU is not expected to have 
a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In  January  2014,  FASB  issued ASU  2014-01,  Investments  -  Equity  Method  and  Joint  Ventures  (Topic  323):  Accounting  for 
Investments  in  Qualified Affordable  Housing  Projects.   The  amendments  in  this  update  permit  reporting  entities  to  make  an 
accounting  policy  election  to  account  for  their  investments  in  qualified  affordable  housing  projects  using  the  proportional 
amortization method if certain conditions are met.  Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial 
cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance 
in the income statement as a component of income tax expense (benefit).  The amendments in this update should be applied 
retrospectively to all periods presented.  A reporting entity that uses the effective yield method to account for its investments in 
qualified affordable  housing projects before  the date of  adoption may continue to apply the  effective  yield method for  those 
preexisting investments.  The amendments in this update are effective for public business entities for annual periods and interim 
reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014.  Early adoption is permitted. The Company is 
currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-04, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): 
Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure.  The amendments in this 
update clarify that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical 
possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal 
title  to  the  residential  real  estate  property  upon  completion  of  a  foreclosure  or  (2)  the  borrower  conveying  all  interest  in  the 
residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a 
similar legal agreement.  Additionally, the amendments require interim and annual disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed 
residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by 
residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction.  
The amendments in this update are effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual 
periods, beginning after December 15, 2014.  An entity can elect to adopt the amendments in this update using either a modified 
retrospective transition method or a prospective transition method.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption 
of the standard will have on the Company’s financial statements.

At December 31, 2013 there were 152 individual securities in a continuous unrealized loss position for less than twelve months 
and 24 individual securities in a continuous unrealized loss position for greater than twelve months.

The Company reviews its position quarterly and has asserted that at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the declines outlined in the 
above table represent temporary declines and the Company does not intend to sell and does not believe they will be required to 
sell these securities before recovery of their cost basis, which may be at maturity.  The Company has concluded that any impairment 
of its investment securities portfolio is not other than temporary but is the result of interest rate changes that are not expected to 
result in the non-collection of principal and interest during the period.

The amortized cost and fair value of debt securities at December 31, 2013, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected 
maturities may differ from contractual maturities since borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without 
call or prepayment penalties.

There were no impairment charges included in gross realized losses for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011.

Investment securities with a carrying value of approximately $141,876,000 and $137,870,000 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, 
respectively, were pledged to secure certain deposits, repurchase agreements, and for other purposes as required by law.

There is no concentration of investments that exceed ten percent of shareholders’ equity for any individual issuer, excluding those 
guaranteed by the U.S. Government.

NOTE 5 - FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK STOCK

The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Pittsburgh and as such, is required to maintain a minimum 
investment in stock of the FHLB that varies with the level of advances outstanding with the FHLB.  The stock is bought from and 
sold to the FHLB based upon its $100 par value.  The stock does not have a readily determinable fair value and as such is classified 
as restricted stock, carried at cost and evaluated for impairment as necessary.  The stock’s value is determined by the ultimate 
recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines. The determination of whether the par value will 
ultimately be recovered is influenced by criteria such as the following: (a) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB 
as compared to the capital stock amount and the length of time this situation has persisted (b) commitments by the FHLB to make 
payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance (c) the impact of 
legislative and regulatory changes on the customer base of the FHLB and (d) the liquidity position of the FHLB.

Management evaluated the stock and concluded that the stock was not impaired for the periods presented herein.  Management 
considered that the FHLB maintains regulatory capital ratios in excess of all regulatory capital requirements, liquidity appears 
adequate, new shares of FHLB stock continue to change hands at the $100 par value, and the payment of dividends.

NOTE 6 - LOAN CREDIT QUALITY AND RELATED ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

Management segments the Banks' loan portfolio to a level that enables risk and performance monitoring according to similar risk 
characteristics.   Loans  are  segmented  based  on  the  underlying  collateral  characteristics.   Categories  include  commercial  and 
agricultural,  real  estate,  and  installment  loans  to  individuals.   Real  estate  loans  are  further  segmented  into  three  categories: 
residential, commercial, and construction.

The following table presents the related aging categories of loans, by segment, as of December 31, 2013 and 2012:

Purchased loans acquired are recorded at fair value on their purchase date without a carryover of the related allowance for loan 
losses.

Upon acquisition, the Company evaluated whether each acquired loan (regardless of size) was within the scope of ASC 310-30, 
Receivables-Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality.  Purchased credit-impaired loans are loans that 
have evidence of credit deterioration since origination and it is probable at the date of acquisition that the Company will not collect 
all contractually required principal and interest payments. There were no material increases or decreases in the expected cash 
flows of these loans between June 1, 2013 (the “acquisition date”) and December 31, 2013.  The fair value of purchased credit-
impaired loans, on the acquisition date, was determined, primarily based on the fair value of loan collateral.  The carrying value 
of purchased loans acquired with deteriorated credit quality was $868,000 at December 31, 2013.

On the acquisition date, the preliminary estimate of the unpaid principal balance for all loans evidencing credit impairment acquired 
in the Luzerne acquisition was $1,211,000 and the estimated fair value of the loans was $878,000.  Total contractually required 
payments on these loans, including interest, at the acquisition date was $1,783,000. However, the Company’s preliminary estimate 
of expected cash flows was $941,000.  At such date, the Company established a credit risk related non-accretable discount (a 
discount representing amounts which are not expected to be collected from the customer nor liquidation of collateral) of $842,000 
relating to these impaired loans, reflected in the recorded net fair value. Such amount is reflected as a non-accretable fair value 
adjustment to loans. The Company further estimated the timing and amount of expected cash flows in excess of the estimated fair 
value and established an accretable discount of $63,000 on the acquisition date relating to these impaired loans.

The carrying value of the loans acquired and accounted for in accordance with ASC 310-30, was determined by projecting discounted 
contractual cash flows. The table below presents the components of the purchase accounting adjustments related to the purchased 
impaired loans acquired in the Luzerne acquisition as of June 1, 2013:

Impaired Loans

Impaired loans are loans for which it is probable the Banks will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual 
terms of the loan agreement.  The Banks individually evaluate such loans for impairment and do not aggregate loans by major 
risk classifications.  The definition of “impaired loans” is not the same as the definition of “non-accrual loans,” although the two 
categories  overlap.   The  Banks  may  choose  to  place  a  loan  on  non-accrual  status  due  to  payment  delinquency  or  uncertain 
collectability, while not classifying the loan as impaired. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include 
payment status and collateral value.  The amount of impairment for these types of loans is determined by the difference between 
the present value of the expected cash flows related to the loan, using the original interest rate, and its recorded value, or as a 
practical expedient in the case of collateralized loans, the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the recorded 
amount of the loan.  When foreclosure is probable, impairment is measured based on the fair value of the collateral.

59

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Management evaluates individual loans in all of the commercial segments for possible impairment if the loan is greater than 
$100,000 and if the loan is either on non-accrual status or has a risk rating of substandard.  Management may also elect to measure 
an individual loan for impairment if less than $100,000 on a case by case basis.

Mortgage loans on one-to-four family properties and all consumer loans are large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans 
and are measured for impairment collectively. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays, which are defined as 90 days 
or less, generally are not classified as impaired.  Management determines the significance of payment delays on a case-by-case 
basis taking into consideration all circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower including the length of the delay, the 
borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.  Interest income for 
impaired loans is recorded consistent to the Banks' policy on non-accrual loans.

Additional funds totaling $289,000 are committed to be advanced in connection with impaired loans.

Modifications

The loan portfolio also includes certain loans that have been modified in a Troubled Debt Restructuring (TDR), where economic 
concessions have been granted to borrowers who have experienced or are expected to experience financial difficulties.  These 
concessions typically result from loss mitigation activities and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, 
forgiveness of principal, forbearance, or other actions.  Certain TDRs are classified as nonperforming at the time of restructure 
and may only be returned to performing status after considering the borrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable 
period, generally six months.

Loan modifications that are considered TDRs completed during the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were as 
follows:

There were four commercial real estate loan modifications considered troubled debt restructurings with a recorded investment of 
$1,884,000 made during the twelve months previous to December 31, 2013 that defaulted during the twelve month period ending 
December 31, 2013.  There were no loan modifications considered troubled debt restructurings made during the twelve months 
previous to December 31, 2012 that defaulted during the twelve month period ending December 31, 2012.

Internal Risk Ratings

Management uses a ten point internal risk rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio. The first six 
categories are considered not criticized, and are aggregated as “Pass” rated. The criticized rating categories utilized by management 
generally follow bank regulatory definitions. The Special Mention category includes assets that are currently protected but are 
potentially weak, resulting in an undue and unwarranted credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a Substandard classification. 
Loans in the Substandard category have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt, and have a distinct 
possibility that some loss will be sustained if the weaknesses are not corrected. All loans greater than 90 days past due are considered 
Substandard.  Loans in the Doubtful category exhibit the same weaknesses found in the Substandard loans, however, the weaknesses 
are more pronounced.  Such loans are static and collection in full is improbable.  However, these loans are not yet rated as loss 
because certain events may occur which would salvage the debt.  Loans classified Loss are considered uncollectible and charge-
off is imminent.

To help ensure that risk ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay a loan as agreed, the 
Banks  have  a  structured  loan  rating  process  with  several  layers  of  internal  and  external  oversight.   Generally,  consumer  and 
residential mortgage loans are included in the pass category unless a specific action, such as bankruptcy, repossession, or death 
occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit event.  An external annual loan review of all commercial relationships $800,000 or 
greater is performed, as well as a sample of smaller transactions.  Confirmation of the appropriate risk category is included in the 
review.  Detailed reviews, including plans for resolution, are performed on loans classified as Substandard, Doubtful, or Loss on 
a quarterly basis.

An allowance for loan losses (“ALL”) is maintained to absorb losses from the loan portfolio.  The ALL is based on management’s 
continuing evaluation of the risk characteristics and credit quality of the loan portfolio, assessment of current economic conditions, 
diversification and size of the portfolio, adequacy of collateral, past and anticipated future loss experience, and the amount of non-
performing loans.

The Banks' methodology for determining the ALL is based on the requirements of ASC Section 310-10-35 for loans individually 
evaluated for impairment (previously discussed) and ASC Subtopic 450-20 for loans collectively evaluated for impairment, as 
well as the Interagency Policy Statements on the Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses and other bank regulatory guidance.  The 
total of the two components represents the Banks' ALL.

Loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment are analyzed with general allowances being made as appropriate.  Allowances 
are segmented based on collateral characteristics previously disclosed, and consistent with credit quality monitoring.  Loans that 
are collectively evaluated for impairment are grouped into two classes for evaluation.  A general allowance is determined for 
“Pass” rated credits, while a separate pool allowance is provided for “Criticized” rated credits that are not individually evaluated 
for impairment.

For the general allowances, historical loss trends are used in the estimation of losses in the current portfolio.  These historical loss 
amounts are modified by other qualitative factors.  A historical charge-off factor is calculated utilizing a twelve quarter moving 
average.  Management has identified a number of additional qualitative factors which it uses to supplement the historical charge-
off factor because these factors are likely to cause estimated credit losses associated with the existing loan pools to differ from 
historical loss experience.  The additional factors that are evaluated quarterly and updated using information obtained from internal, 
regulatory, and governmental sources are: national and local economic trends and conditions; levels of and trends in delinquency 
rates and non-accrual loans; trends in volumes and terms of loans; effects of changes in lending policies; experience, ability, and 
depth of lending staff; value of underlying collateral; and concentrations of credit from a loan type, industry, and/or geographic 
standpoint.

63

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Loans in the criticized pools, which possess certain qualities or characteristics that may lead to collection and loss issues, are 
closely monitored by management and subject to additional qualitative factors.  Management also monitors industry loss factors 
by loan segment for applicable adjustments to actual loss experience.

Management reviews the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis in order to make appropriate and timely adjustments to the ALL.  
When information confirms all or part of specific loans to be uncollectible, these amounts are promptly charged off against the 
ALL.

The terms of the convertible borrowings allow the FHLB to convert the interest rate to an adjustable rate based on the three month 
London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) at a predetermined anniversary date of the borrowing’s origination, ranging from three 
months to five years.  If the FHLB converts the interest rate on one of the predetermined dates, the Bank has the ability to pay off 
the debt on the conversion date and quarterly thereafter without incurring the customary pre-payment penalty.

The Banks maintain a credit arrangement which includes a revolving line of credit with the FHLB.  Under this credit arrangement, 
at  December  31,  2013  JSSB  has  a  remaining  borrowing  capacity  of  $221,498,000  and  Luzerne  has  a  remaining  capacity  of 
$138,757,000, which are subject to annual renewal and typically incur no service charges.  Under terms of a blanket agreement, 
collateral for the FHLB borrowings must be secured by certain qualifying assets of each Bank which consist principally of first 
mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities.

The current low income housing credit carryforward will expire in thirteen years.  The current capital loss carryforward will expire 
in four years.  The Company fully anticipates being able to use the carryforwards.

No valuation allowance was established at December 31, 2013 and 2012, because of the Company’s ability to carry back capital 
losses to recover taxes paid in previous years and certain tax strategies, together with the anticipated future taxable income as 
evidenced by the Company’s earning potential.

The expected long-term rate of return was estimated using market benchmarks by which the plan assets would outperform the 
market value in the future, based on historical experience adjusted for changes in asset allocation and expectations for overall 
lower future returns on similar investments compared to past periods.

Plan Assets

The Plan’s weighted-average asset allocations at December 31, 2013 and 2012 by asset category are as follows:

The investment objective for the Plan is to maximize total return with tolerance for slightly above average risk, meaning the fund 
is able to tolerate short-term volatility to achieve above-average returns over the long term.

Asset allocation favors equities, with target allocation of approximately 60% equity securities, 37.5% fixed income securities and 
2.5% cash.  Due to volatility in the market, the target allocation is not always desirable and asset allocations will fluctuate between 
the acceptable ranges.  The equity portfolio’s exposure is primarily in mid and large capitalization domestic equities with limited 
exposure to small capitalization and international stocks.

It is management’s intent to give the investment managers flexibility, within the overall guidelines, with respect to investment 
decisions and their timing. However, certain investments require specific review and approval by management.  Management is 
also informed of anticipated, significant modifications of any previously approved investment, or anticipated use of derivatives 
to execute investment strategies.

The company expects to contribute a minimum of $600,000 to its Pension Plan in 2014.

401(k) Savings Plan

The Company also offers a 401(k) savings plan in which eligible participating employees may elect to contribute up to a maximum 
percentage  allowable  not  to  exceed  the  limits  of  Code  Sections  401(k),  404,  and  415.   The  Company  may  make  matching 
contributions equal to a discretionary percentage that is determined by the Board of Directors.  Participants are at all times fully 
vested in their contributions and vest over a period of five years regarding the employer contribution.  Contribution expense was 
approximately $132,000, $118,000, and $101,000 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.

Deferred Compensation Plan

The Company has a deferred compensation plan whereby participating directors elect to forego directors’ fees paid in cash.  Under 
this plan, the Company will make payments for a ten-year period beginning at the later of age 65 or ceasing to be a director in 
most cases or at death, if earlier, at which time payments would be made to their designated beneficiaries.

To fund benefits under the deferred compensation plan, the Company has acquired bank-owned life insurance policies on the lives 
of the participating directors for which insurance benefits are payable to the Company. The Company incurred expenses related 
to the plan of $169,000, $84,000, and $114,000 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.  Benefits 
paid under the plan were approximately $57,000, $140,000, and $160,000 in 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.

NOTE 14 - EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

The Company maintained the Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. 2006 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“Plan”). The Plan is intended to 
encourage employee participation in the ownership and economic progress of the Company. The Plan allows for up to 1,000,000 
shares to be purchased by employees.  The purchase price of the shares is 95% of market value with an employee eligible to 
purchase up to the lesser of 15% of base compensation or $12,000 in market value annually. There were 1,840 and 1,435 shares 
issued under the plan for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

NOTE 15 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Certain directors and executive officers of the Company and the Bank, including their immediate families and companies in which 
they are principal owners (more than ten percent), are indebted to the Company.  Such indebtedness was incurred in the ordinary 
course of business on the same terms and at those rates prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with others.

and $399,000.

The Company is subject to lawsuits and claims arising out of its business.  There are no such legal proceedings or claims currently 
pending or threatened other than those encountered during the normal course of business.

NOTE 17 - OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing 
needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit.  These 
instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate, or liquidity risk in excess of the amount recognized in 
the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The contract amounts of these instruments express the extent of involvement the Company has 
in particular classes of financial instruments.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss from nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments 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 on-balance sheet instruments.  The Company 
may require collateral or other security to support financial instruments with off-balance sheet credit risk.

Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk are as follows at December 31, 2013 and 2012:

Commitments to extend credit are legally binding agreements to lend to customers.  Commitments generally have fixed expiration 
dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of fees.  Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without 

73

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
being  drawn  upon,  the  total  commitment  amounts  do  not  necessarily  represent  future  liquidity  requirements.  The  Company 
evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis.  The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by 
the Company, on an extension of credit is based on management’s credit assessment of the counterparty.

Standby letters of credit represent conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer 
to a third party.  These instruments are issued primarily to support bid or performance related contracts.  The coverage period for 
these instruments is typically a one year period with an annual renewal option subject to prior approval by management.  Fees 
earned from the issuance of these letters are recognized upon expiration of the coverage period.  For secured letters of credit, the 
collateral is typically Bank deposit instruments or customer business assets.

NOTE 18 - CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

Federal regulations require the Company and the Banks to maintain minimum amounts of capital.  Specifically, each is required 
to maintain certain minimum dollar amounts and ratios of Total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to 
average total assets.

In addition to the capital requirements, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act (“FDICIA”) established five 
capital  categories  ranging  from  “well  capitalized”  to  “critically  undercapitalized.”   Should  any  institution  fail  to  meet  the 
requirements to be considered “adequately capitalized,” it would become subject to a series of increasingly restrictive regulatory 
actions.

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the FDIC categorized the Banks as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt 
corrective action.  To be classified as a well capitalized financial institution, Total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage 
capital ratios must be at least 10%, 6%, and 5%, respectively.

The Company’s and the Banks' actual capital ratios are presented in the following tables, which shows that the Company both 
Banks met all regulatory capital requirements.

The Pennsylvania Banking Code restricts the availability of capital funds for payment of dividends by all state-chartered banks. 
Accordingly,  at  December 31,  2013,  the  balance  in  the  additional  paid  in  capital  account  totaling  $11,657,000  for  JSSB  and 
$42,214,000 for Luzerne Bank is unavailable for dividends.

The Banks are subject to regulatory restrictions, which limit the ability to loan funds to Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc.  At December 31, 
2013, the regulatory lending limit amounted to approximately $16,211,000.

Cash and Due from Banks

Included in cash and due from banks are reserves required by the district Federal Reserve Bank for JSSB of $0 and $1,131,000 
at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Luzerne Bank had no reserves required by the district Federal Reserve Bank at 
December 31, 2013.  The required reserves are computed by applying prescribed ratios to the classes of average deposit balances.  
These are held in the form of cash on hand and a balance maintained directly with the Federal Reserve Bank.

NOTE 20 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The following disclosures show the hierarchal disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observations utilized in 
measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. The three broad levels of pricing observations are as follows:

Level I:

  Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.

Level II:

Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as 
of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities includes items for which quoted prices are available 
but traded less frequently, and items that are fair valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which 
can be directly observed.

Level III:

Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers 
are unobservable.

This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available.

The following table presents the assets reported on the balance sheet at their fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 
2013 and 2012, by level within the fair value hierarchy. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the 
lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

(1) Appraisals may be adjusted by management for qualitative factors such as economic conditions and estimated liquidation 

expenses.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s impaired loans using the discounted 
cash flow valuation technique include temporary changes in payment amounts and the probability of default.  Significant increases 
(decreases) in payment amounts would result in significantly higher (lower) fair value measurements.  The probability of default 
is 0% for impaired loans using the discounted cash flow valuation technique because all defaulted impaired loans are valued using 
the appraisal of collateral valuation technique.

The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s impaired loans using the appraisal of 
collateral valuation technique include appraisal adjustments, which are adjustments to appraisals by management for qualitative 
factors such as economic conditions and estimated liquidation expenses.  The significant unobservable input used in the fair value 
measurement of the Company’s other real estate owned are the same inputs used to value impaired loans using the appraisal of 
collateral valuation technique.

NOTE 21 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company is required to disclose fair values for its financial instruments.  Fair values are made at a specific point in time, 
based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument.  These fair values do not reflect any premium 
or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument.  
Also, it is the Company’s general practice and intention to hold most of its financial instruments to maturity and not to engage in 
trading or sales activities.  Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair values 
are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various 
financial  instruments,  and  other  factors.   These  fair  values  are  subjective  in  nature  and  involve  uncertainties  and  matters  of 
significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision.  Changes in assumptions can significantly affect the fair 
values.

Fair values have been determined by the Company using historical data and an estimation methodology suitable for each category 
of financial instruments.  The Company’s fair values, methods, and assumptions are set forth below for the Company’s other 
financial instruments.

As certain assets and liabilities, such as deferred tax assets, premises and equipment, and many other operational elements of the 
Company, are not considered financial instruments but have value, the fair value of financial instruments would not represent the 
full market value of the Company.

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

Cash  and  Cash  Equivalents,  Loans  Held  for  Sale, Accrued  Interest  Receivable,  Short-term  Borrowings,  and Accrued 
Interest Payable:

The fair value is equal to the carrying value.

Investment Securities:

The fair value of investment securities available for sale is equal to the available quoted market price. If no quoted market price 
is available, fair value is determined by using the quoted market price for similar securities.  Regulatory stocks’ fair value is equal 
to the carrying value.

Loans:

Fair values are determined for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics.  Loans are segregated by type such as 
commercial, commercial real estate, residential real estate, construction real estate, and other consumer.  Each loan category is 
further segmented into fixed and adjustable rate interest terms and by performing and nonperforming categories.

The fair value of performing loans is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using market 
discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the loan.  The estimate of maturity is based on the Company’s 
historical experience with repayments for each loan classification, modified, as required, by an estimate of the effect of current 
economic and lending conditions.

Fair value for significant nonperforming loans is based on recent external appraisals.  If appraisals are not available, estimated 
cash flows are discounted using a rate commensurate with the risk associated with the estimated cash flows.  Assumptions regarding 
credit risk, cash flows, and discounted rates are judgmentally determined using available market information and specific borrower 
information.

Bank-Owned Life Insurance:

The fair value is equal to the cash surrender value of the life insurance policies.

Deposits:

The fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand deposits, savings, NOW, and money market 
accounts, is equal to the amount payable on demand as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.  The fair value of certificates of deposit 
is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows.

The fair values above do not include the benefit that results from the low-cost funding provided by the deposit liabilities compared 
to the cost of borrowing funds in the market, commonly referred to as the core deposit intangible.

Long Term Borrowings:

The fair value of long term borrowings is based on the discounted value of contractual cash flows.

Commitments to Extend Credit, Standby Letters of Credit, and Financial Guarantees Written:

There is no material difference between the notional amount and the fair value of off-balance sheet items at December 31, 2013 
and 2012.  The contractual amounts of unfunded commitments and letters of credit are presented in Note 17.

NOTE 24 - ACQUISITION OF LUZERNE NATIONAL BANK CORPORATION

On June 1, 2013, the Company closed on a merger transaction pursuant to which Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. acquired Luzerne 
National Bank Corporation in a stock and cash transaction.  The acquisition extended the Company’s footprint into Luzerne and 
Lackawanna Counties, Pennsylvania.

Luzerne National Bank Corporation was the holding company for Luzerne Bank, a Pennsylvania bank that conducted its business 
from a main office in Luzerne, Pennsylvania with eight branch offices in Luzerne County and one loan production office in 
Lackawanna County, all in northeastern Pennsylvania.  Since June 1, 2013, the loan production office in Lackawanna County has 
been closed.  

Under the terms of the merger agreement, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Luzerne National Bank Corporation 
for a total purchase price of approximately $42,612,000.  As a result of the acquisition, the Company issued 978,977 common 
shares, or 20.31% of the total shares outstanding as of December 31, 2013, to former shareholders of Luzerne National Bank 
Corporation.  Luzerne Bank is operating as an independent bank under the Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. umbrella.

The acquired assets and assumed liabilities were measured at estimated fair values. Management made significant estimates and 
exercised significant judgment in accounting for the acquisition.  Management measured loan fair values based on loan file reviews, 

82

 
 
 
 
appraised  collateral  values,  expected  cash  flows,  and  historical  loss  factors  of  Luzerne  Bank.   Real  estate  acquired  through 
foreclosure was primarily valued based on appraised collateral values.  The Company also recorded an identifiable intangible asset 
representing the core deposit base of Luzerne Bank based on management’s evaluation of the cost of such deposits relative to 
alternative funding sources.  The Company also recorded an identifiable intangible asset representing the trade name of Luzerne 
Bank based on management’s evaluation of the value of the name in the market.  Management used significant estimates including 
the  average  lives  of  depository  accounts,  future  interest  rate  levels,  and  the  cost  of  servicing  various  depository  products. 
Management used market quotations to determine the fair value of investment securities.

The business combination resulted in the acquisition of loans with and without evidence of credit quality deterioration. Luzerne 
Bank’s loans were deemed impaired at the acquisition date if the Company did not expect to receive all contractually required 
cash flows due to concerns about credit quality.  Such loans were fair valued and the difference between contractually required 
payments at the acquisition date and cash flows expected to be collected was recorded as a non-accretable difference. At the 
acquisition date, the Company recorded $1,211,000 of purchased credit-impaired loans subject to a non-accretable difference of 
$842,000. The method of measuring carrying value of purchased loans differs from loans originated by the Company (originated 
loans), and as such, the Company identifies purchased loans and purchased loans with a credit quality discount and originated 
loans at amortized cost.

Luzerne’s loans without evidence of credit deterioration were fair valued by discounting both expected principal and interest cash 
flows using an observable discount rate for similar instruments that a market participant would consider in determining fair value.  
Additionally,  consideration  was  given  to  management’s  best  estimates  of  default  rates  and  payment  speeds.  At  acquisition, 
Luzerne’s loan portfolio without evidence of deterioration totaled $249,789,000 and was recorded at a fair value of $249,500,000.

The Company recorded goodwill and other intangibles associated with the purchase of Luzerne National Bank Corporation totaling 
$16,086,000.  Goodwill is not amortized, but is periodically evaluated for  impairment.  The  Company did not recognize any 
impairment during the seven months ended December 31, 2013.  The carrying amount of the goodwill at December 31, 2013 
related to the Luzerne acquisition was $14,072,000.

Identifiable  intangibles  are  amortized  to  their  estimated  residual  values  over  the  expected  useful  lives.  Such  lives  are  also 
periodically reassessed to determine if any amortization period adjustments are required.  During the seven months ended December 
31, 2013, no such adjustments were recorded.  The identifiable intangible assets consist of a core deposit intangible and trade 
name intangible which are being amortized on an accelerated basis over the useful life of such assets.  The gross carrying amount 
of the core deposit intangible and trade name intangible at December 31, 2013 was $1,682,000 and $119,000, respectively, with 
$200,000 and $13,000 accumulated amortization as of that date.

As of December 31, 2013, the current year and estimated future amortization expense for the core deposit and trade name intangible 
was:

of December 31, 2013 of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined 
under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act.  Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s President and Chief 
Executive  Officer  along  with  the  Company’s  Chief  Financial  Officer  concluded  that  the  Company’s  disclosure  controls  and 
procedures were effective as of December 31, 2013.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2013 that have 
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting 
as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is 
designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements 
for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Because  of  its  inherent  limitations,  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  may  not  prevent  or  detect  misstatements. Also, 
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because 
of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A material weakness is a significant deficiency (as defined in Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard 
No. 2),  or a  combination of  significant deficiencies, that results  in there being  more than a  remote likelihood that a  material 
misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by management or 
employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. 
Management’s assessment did not identify any material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway 
Commission  (COSO)  in  Internal  Control-Integrated  Framework.  Because  there  were  no  material  weaknesses  discovered, 
management believes that, as of December 31, 2013, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.

S.R. Snodgrass, P.C. an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the consolidated financial statements included 
in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, as part of the audit, has issued  a report, which appears below, on the effectiveness of the 
Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc.
Williamsport, PA

We have audited Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, 
based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations 
of  the Treadway  Commission  (“COSO”).  Penns Woods  Bancorp,  Inc.’s  management  is  responsible  for  maintaining  effective 
internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting 
included  in  the  accompanying  Report  on  Management’s  Assessment  of  Internal  Control  Over  Financial  Reporting.  Our 
responsibility is to express an opinion on Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. 

We conducted our audit 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 effective internal control 
over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control 
over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating 
effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we 
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. 

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability 
of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted 
accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain 
to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets 
of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded, as necessary, to permit preparation of financial 
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are 
being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable 
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that 
could have a material effect on the financial statements. 

Because  of  its  inherent  limitations,  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  may  not  prevent  or  detect  misstatements. Also, 
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because 
of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.  
In our opinion, Penns Woods Bancorp, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting 
as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by COSO. 

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), 
the consolidated statement of financial condition of Sample Financial Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013, and the 
related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year 
then ended, and our report dated March 11, 2014, expressed an unqualified opinion.
